And I'm not quite ready for it.
I'm excited about school, don't get me wrong. But my study habits are horrible right now. I'm not sure if it's just me finding distractions, (internet, movies, games), because I don't WANT to study, or if it's because I actually have a problem concentrating. I'd like to believe I have a choice. But then that just means I'm lazy.
I will work on it after I write this up. I promise.
Oh, speaking of resolve, I finally knuckled down and marked some things off my TO DO list today. I made an appointment with my doctor for a physical and some other check-ups, created two excel charts for my peak flow (asthma) and monthly budget, and I contacted NMT to try and figure out the scholarship thing.
The staff at NMT have been amazingly responsive, (compared to the bullshit I get from local colleges). I sent the e-mail out at 2pm, and received the first reply at 2:13 then the next at 2:20. Impressive! I also had very quick responses from the admissions office and residential life. I am being spoiled!

Monies!
I has a money!
Marcel and I won 80 bucks in a pool tournament yesterday. It was a scotch doubles tourney, and we made it all the way to the semi-finals in a quite ridiculous manner.
We played four teams in our bracket, and everyone in the bracket ended up with 2 wins and 2 losses, so it came down to a shoot out to win. Shootouts are very hard, so I thought for sure we were done. We were both very tired anyway. Ends up that Marcel made one ball on the shootout to progress us to the last shootout. I sunk two shootout balls to win the bracket for us!
After that madness, we got a buy into the semi-finals and promptly lost that match. We were exhausted and missing balls that should never be missed. It was maddening, but hey...80 bucks! We were there from noon until 8:30! We are so devoted to our billiards.
