In VLSI and Advanced Digital Design on a Monday at the Autumnal Equinox

My day is one of path effort delay and flip flops and latches, of masculinismo y marianismo, awful sushi with green Tabasco sauce to make it palatable, reading the news on my Smackberry, fretting for my homework and grades, trying to conquer it all with AIESEC and being conquered by my environment. It is a day of overstaying familiarity and futility of the dream of escape and breaking bonds, of fulfilling my Pyramid and occasionally descending (or ascending?) into a different Way just for it not to be the same Way.

I feel like after graduation and my traineeship I would benefit from one year in a place where the bulk of my day would consist of reading and running, so I could descend into my own underworld, discover the boon, and return it to this plane. Then I would be The Conqueror to our enemies and The Liberator to us.

Labor Day Wockende 2000-Great

I still don't have time to write about the massive month of my life that was August and the immense change therein, but what I can say now is the kind of weekend I had:

Friday night: Enjoyment > Dinner with Family > Walking around Dragon*Con with Gadsden family friends > Going back to the house with my Boys from Bama and enjoying a party downstairs > Enjoyment

Saturday: Enjoyment > Barbecue with family friends at Roy and Dave's > Enjoyment > BAMA LOOKIN' FRESH, MANE! at Alabama vs. Clemson in the Georgia Dome > Going to Dragon*Con with friends and people-watching and people-talking and people-drinking until about 4 A.M.

Sunday: Enjoyment > Karaoke

Monday: Nothing.

I don't know what she was supposed to be, except camera candy

They told me to "Get on your knees." I wasn't about to not comply.
