It is already a month into the New Year, and it has gone by so quickly. It feels like school just started, yet we are still three weeks into it, and the most depressing part of it is that the football season is almost over. I realized that it was getting bad when Yohan, Chris and I turned Madden on and let the computer play the game so that we could see who the winner of New England vs. Philadelphia would be. Surprise, surprise, it was New England.
One thing that I am really scared of is that Brett Favre could retire at this point. I think he is making something like $8 million a year, so he is doing fine financially, and he has so many records that it is not even funny. I think they are already making a place for him in the Hall of Fame. Also, he is 35 and not the same quarterback that he used to be, because he is 1-5 in the playoffs for the past five years. Every time he gets there, he turns over the ball so much that the other team is almost forced to win. So I am not sure if he is waiting for an elegant Super Bowl win to end on (maybe he wants to exit like John Elway did), but I am really not sure that will happen. I want him to stay... I mean it isn't the Packers without him. Sure, Craig Nall, their second string quarterback, seems very good, and would keep the Packers going very well... but he still isn't Favre. I have a feeling that Favre will stay, but there is that possibility.
On a lighter note, we reserved our rooms for next semester today. Right now Yohan, Chris, Luckey and I are planning on getting a suite in the Scholars LLC together, but Luckey is applying for an RA position, which would leave us with Logan most likely (but Chris prefers Kyle... I like Logan and prefer him, so I guess we will cross that bridge if Luckey gets the position).
I finally might have a job, too! I was returning some books to the bookstore last week, except that the vandal card machine was broken so that I couldn't get my refund. They told me to come back the next day to finalize the transaction so that I could get my money back. Well when I went back the next day, and was waiting for the lady to finish the transaction, I noticed a sign that said that there was an opening for a computer sales rep. After talking to the person in charge, I found out that it was a $7.50 an hour job and that I just needed to leave my resume. Nice! I have had a lot of free time lately anyway, and then I would get to hang around computer stuff all shift. Besides... it would be a job that would be a lot of standing around and talking about computer stuff (which I like to do anyway). I have my interview tomorrow, so we will have to see how that goes!
That makes me happy. Like listening to good music type of happy. I grabbed a bunch of music from Davin and I am getting addicted to the Bond soundtracks and Eiffel65. Euro pop. Yeah, remember "Blue Da Ba Dee Da Ba Die"? Oh yeah... that disc rocks. So does The Killers. I know that the name sounds... well... violent... but they are really good! You should pick some of that stuff up from www.allofmp3.com.
If you know Chris or have talked to him at all lately, then you have heard of Burnout 3. If you haven't heard of it, then shame on you for not talking to him! Shesh... be social. Anyway, my grades are going to dive because of that damned game. It is so addictive and I haven't even played the single player yet. It is on my list, right after finishing Half Life 2. I guess that I am on the last level, and it is an awesome level that I should leave about an hour to play... I just haven't had an hour of uninterrupted time! I want to end the game well... especially since it has taken me a month and a half to finish it. Got to make this good.
But I got to get to bed first. Later.
