Mid-semester

I know, fall baseball was rough on me with no weekends basically! That was finished two weekends ago, so now time is freeing up. Homecoming was great, as good as united dances get, anyway, what with a bunch of hillbillies all dressed up and trying to dance to rap and hip hop...
It's been a while. I'm not nearly as busy as i was last blog, I just forgot...for a little over 3 weeks...which is embarrassing. Anyway, as I just said, I'm a lot less busy, considering I now remember how having weekends feels like. The weekend after baseball was over, I caught up completely on homework (I didn't turn in anything late, I just missed a lot of the reading) and relaxed a little. During that week, I found time to work out more in preparation for January and February's Indoor Track Season while still doing work in my Classes. It's been pretty basic the last few weeks, my routine has been established. I feel like I know what the Profs consistently expect of me, something every student eventually learns from his teachers. You know, the feeling that when you proofread your paper you can guess pretty accurately what you'll get on it. So I got that goin' for me. Anyway, two weeks ago I skipped the Learning Community for an Amish Mill Festival in Carroll County, where my grandparents live. It was the first one I skipped, which is, to me, legal; especially considering most kids have only gone to one of the Friday Funday's. Two days ago at our last Learning Comm., we got Interim Grades. I have two A's and a B, which is what I expected. We also are beginning scheduling for the Spring Semester, and I made an appointment with Kristin Toothman for next Monday to see if I can take some courses in the P.T.A. program in East Liverpool, which will be my major, anyway. That way, I'll be getting a head start not only on my Frosh year of college, but also a jump start on my major.
All for now, Brock
