Have you ever had one of those moments/days/weeks where you just don’t feel like doing anything? That would be how this week has been. I know that we’re here to work hard and learn so that we become better people, are able to contribute more to society, or reach some level of knowledge which prepares us for some career after college, but at times that’s just not enough. Lethargic apathy is spreading worse than the Swine Flu but without the benefit of a vaccine. It’s like the plague that everyone knows they’re going to get and is just waiting to die. Things have gotten so bad, the administration has been forced to import the bright, cheerful personalities only found in tiny children…or maybe that’s just for Halloween. Either way, I think it’s a highly unorthodox course of action, but it might just be crazy enough to work.
Speaking of Halloween, the party is tomorrow…sorry, tonight, and we have yet to actually decorate. I’m not sure if it’s just me, my pledgebrothers, everyone I went to high school with, or everyone I’ve ever worked on a project with, but people seem to inherently enjoy procrastinating! Having said this, I’m not implying that any of those listed are lazy (except myself), but there seems to be something entertaining about waiting till the last minute. No worries though, although I’ve observed this as a widely occurring trend, I’ve also found that my generation has become quite skilled at working last minute pressure.
I’ll end this blog by introducing a concept which I feel blogs should be able to incorporate somehow: live blogging. Writing this blog has taken me little more than a half hour and in that time, I’ve been listening to Blink 182 and watching their music videos, talking with my pledge-daddy, scanning over the guidelines for a philosophy synopsis I need to write for tomorrow, and thinking about my costume for tonight. On average, I rarely write these blogs anywhere other than my bed, around midnight, and in my pajamas. Although this live feed would mean I’d have to wear more cloths and clean up the place a bit, it would give a much more accurate view of how I spend this aspect of my life here on campus and allow you, the reader, to gain a better understanding of how I feel about things that are going on.
