So, it’s spring break. I just realized I haven’t written anything substantial in a long time. Right now, I’m at home in Tampa, chilling in my room while Rob plays Madden ’02 on his Gameboy. He just got here today and tomorrow we’re going down to Sarasota to finish off our spring break before going to Gainesville. But I’m starting this off all backwards. Let’s go back a little ways…
This semester’s been pretty good so far – even though I have a lot of work, I like most of my classes. Intro to ISE. Financial Accounting. Operations Research. Statistics 1. AutoCAD. The hardest one is probably Statistics, but at least I’m doing ok gradewise so far. Anyway, this is all boring stuff that probably none of you want to hear, so I’ll just skip to spring break.
I actually haven’t done much so far this past week – I came here last Friday and have basically been relaxing at home. Which is SO NICE. Great home-cooked meals and being with the family. I had a lot of Operations research homework as well as financial accounting homework, which was annoying, but I’ve gotten most of it done. Monday night was Sara Wilkin’s b-day, so me and Dream and Amanda went out and celebrated with dinner at Estela’s, this great Mexican place. I do so love Mexican food…
Wednesday, a bunch of us hit up the beach at Fort Desoto – I probably should put some pictures here, but I’m getting a little tired; maybe in the next few days I’ll post a picture update. Anyways, the beach was awesome. Even though the water was cold, we got some good sand-castle building in. And of course, you can’t go wrong with grilled hot dogs, mmm…
Today, I’ve been doing more homework until Rob got in from Tally. We then went to Wal-Mart and Target to restock my college snack supply and I applied at Target to work over the summer. For dinner tonight, my dad made chicken parmisan and it was amazing! Dream and Chris came over too and afterwards we watched United 93(great movie…so moving) and then the Gators game(first round of the NCAA tourney). We beat Jackson State 112-69. Not bad at all.
I guess I should probably get going to bed soon since we’re gonna get up early tomorrow to go to the park to play basketball, but I’ll leave you all with a short poem:
Mid-morning
Harsh as glass against the skin
Dull as unfound pearls half-buried
Reaping fruits not quite ripe
Reaching for the diamond light
Waves rippling strongly onwards
Trees bowing before the clouds
Water cascading down upon the shore
Traveling through the wilds evermore
Sun peeks over the azure horizon
Rising crystal vapor gleams
New morning parades its lace
a blushed glance, unveiled face.
Something Weird
