Am I wasting time?
Some days I feel like college is a waste of my time. Sometimes I feel like I could just get a job and start making money and be fine in life, then spending all my money on school and books and all. Why not just go to my community college, work mad hours at a job, and just save up like shit? Who says that wouldn’t work? I mean there are plenty of people who go to worse school and end up making bank in life. And why can’t I see where I’m going to end up in life? I literally sit around all the time and wonder what I am going to be doing with my life. Will I work on cars like I love? Will I be in an office job? Will I be happy with a big family or will I be struggling to make payments and hating life? I dream big of all these nice things and having the money to help others, but I don’t see how I am going to get there. Sure, I’ll be an engineer. But what exactly does that mean? I still don’t know and I’m almost done with my first year of college. I also don’t know who I am in life. I don’t know who I want to be seen as and what I truly love. I mean I know, but its not like I could make a job out of what I love. I love music but don’t have the money to be a DJ. I love classic muscle cars but I also don’t have to money to buy and fix up classics. If I could be a guy who rebuilt classic muscle cars who DJed on the side, I would love my life. I don’t think there would be a day that I would not be happy; especially if I had a loving wife, nice house, and good kids. I say good kids because I know kids will never be perfect, just god enough to deal with. I want my kids to listen to me when I say something, but who also think for themselves and know what they want in life and go for it. Anyway, that’s enough ranting and thinking ahead in life. And I think this is the last blog we have, so I will talk to you all later! :)

Why do kids drink in college?
Do most college kids drink because we don’t know what else to do to hang out? So many people these days seem to not enjoy the simply things in life. What did we used to do with all our friends? Why can’t we still do those things now-a-days? As a kid, I used to ride my bike all the time, play video games, watch TV, watch movies, play tag, play hide and seek, play capture the flag, and even just mess around in the cul-de-sac I lived in. I would love to play all these games and do all these activities still today if people wouldn’t look at you like your childish and immature. I wish I could play tag outside, play a game of capture the flag on the drillfield, or even play tag on a certain park of campus. I think I would enjoy that more than drinking almost every weekend and it would probably be healthier for me too. I think as we get older, we set this image in our minds that those were all childish things and can’t do them now because we r grown up. People think drinking is a grown up thing, but just because you drink doesn’t mean you’re an adult. Just means u drink. Doesn’t me shit otherwise. I think mature people would really see that we could do both and still be mature. I mean, when were you the happiest in your life? I was happiest when I was a kid, running around outside playing tag and capture the flag with all my friends. And I miss that a lot of days. I miss the joy that came from something so simple. How come more people don’t notice this and make a change? People in college think drinking is a good way to relax because no one really promotes tag or capture the flag instead of drinking. They all suggest to do them both while drinking. As if alcohol will make all things in life more fun. Everyone thinks college is this great place where everyone sees and where people do crazy things like drink, have sex, and do drugs all the time and that life is easy. I think it should be a place where we find our inner child, find what job we want to have, and what we want to learn. Why cant it be like that? I wish it could….

The Big Event
im just going to warn you and say this is a rant and may be long cuz its about 700 words.
So this weekend we had the big event and since I am a part of the Galileo program I was a part of the Galileo/Hypathia big event team. This consisted of over 200 people and we went into Christiansburg to mulch the disk gold course there. I expected to be walking through a slightly hilly area through the woods with mulch in wheelbarrows. This was not even close to what we actually did. The email they sent us was so broad they didn’t really tell exactly what we were doing, except mulching a disk golf course. I think they did this because they knew people would not want to go if they knew that we would be walking through the woods on steep cliffs for like 2 miles into the woods. It was the biggest bullshit ever. They had 5 gallon buckets which they filled with mulch and people carried to the sites that needed to be mulched. The buckets were light so I grabbed 4. One other guy grabbed 4, other people grabbed 2, but there were some other guys who were bitches who only took one like all the girls did. Seeing the guys who carried only one bucket it pissed me off. They are lazy and so inconsiderate of others for not even trying. We all came out to volunteer for to do this, and they are going to act like a bitch? Wow, makes them pretty cool I think. Everyone must have looked at them like they were hot shit. No, they looked t you like u were a weak bitch. And on top of that there were some people who were shoveling the mulch into the buckets who were talking shit about how there were more buckets to take and how we needed to keep going, but anytime you told them to run one and you would give their shovel back, they said no and bitched out. They didn’t make any runs through the woods and had no idea how much work it actually was. But not only were the people shoveling lazy, but there were a ton of people just sitting down on the grass. Jessie and I noticed one girl was sleeping on the grass tanning the entire time we were there. Are you kidding me? R u really that selfish that u can’t push your body a little to help others? I carried 4 buckets every time I went down, which was multiple times, and you couldn’t even sacrifice a little. This was a good majority, probably about a third of the people there, who were sitting on the ground. And when they would bring snacks, people who didn’t do shit would rush them and eat a ton. Really? I don’t understand how people can be the way they are in life. I grew up working with my dad building fences and building houses because he is a construction worker. I learned that some days will absolutely suck, but as long as you focus on enjoying the company of others while you work, then the work won’t seem as bad. I’ll admit once we started I wanted to stop immediately, but as soon as I saw so many people not even trying, I didn’t want to be one of them. I never sat down once and I always carried 4 buckets at a time. I wanted people to know I was trying and that I cared for others, even when I wasn’t going to be getting anything out of the situation. And btw this may be the worst written paper, but I wasn’t really focused on the grammar or how it sounded. I just needed to rant so I don’t rant towards some people close to me for being tools during the whole fucking event. I don’t know how all these damn engineers plan to get through life without actually getting off your ass and working.

Relationships suck sometimes
Why do couples fight so much? Why do we all find a need to or a way to be mad with the one we love? A lot of times It could be a trust issue, it could be a jealousy issue, or it could even be that one of you doesn’t feel you talk enough. I don’t get why these things cause fights in relationships. I know me and my girlfriend and I have these exact fights and actually had 2 of the 3 fights I mentioned last night. I talked to her about what I am going to be putting in my apartment next year and she freaked out. I told her about the pong table I am going to make over the summer and how legit it was and so her response was, “sounds pretty official, this means you’re going to be drinking all the time huh?” if u can’t tell, she doesn’t like that I drink and especially doesn’t like that I do it while she isn’t around. I honestly don’t want to change for her though. I am having fun being who I am. And the way I look at it was she did the same shit to me last year when were dating. She would go out clubbing all the time without me and not even try to invite me. So I got mad and told her I didn’t like it. You know how she responded to me? Well she simply said, “I am sorry. This is what my friends and I do and we are going to do it.” So that’s how I feel about this. She can either embrace it, or she can let it drive something between us. That’s what I had to do. Sorry, this blog kind of just turned into a rant. Anyway, I don’t understand why couples have to fight about such dumb things? Why not just support who the person is and if they do something that could hurt them, then you step in but otherwise let them be them. You chose them to be with for them. Why would you try to change them?

JoeStock and Easter
So this weekend was supposed to one of the biggest parties I was going to go to since I have been here at tech, but alas its Easter weekend and my family is coming her for the weekend. So anyway, this party is a 7 day long party for a guys 21st birthday. It started Thursday night and goes until Sunday night. There will be tons of games, tons of beer, tons of people, and an Easter egg hunt. But this Easter egg hunt will be a very special one, because the eggs won’t have candy in them, but instead they will be filled with airplane bottles of liquor. This is a tradition of the house they live in. on anyone’s 21st birthday they have a seven day party full of drinking and partying. This year it just happens to land around Easter, which is why they have the Easter egg hunt. There will be games like anchorman, pong, kings, etc.
…Subject change…
So every year, as a tradition since my sister started going to Virginia tech, my family comes to Blacksburg to pick us up and we rent a house in the mountains for the weekend. Usually we all just chill around the house or outside with a fire and relax. We do it to get away from everything in our lives which are hectic. Its seems like I never get a second to breathe or relax until that weekend where i actually take the time to relax…but then on Monday its like I screwed myself over because there is more work to be done that I didn’t do over the weekend. It is dumb, and I honestly can’t wait till the summer. But the summer won’t be any better because I am doing summer classes here for the 1st 5 weeks of summer. But what I am excited for this summer is when me and my girlfriend can go to my house in New York and chill there for a week. I am supposed to repaint the house while I am there, but I am also going to have some fun. Probably see a friend who lives in New York, go boating, watch some movies, ride bikes, etc. I just can’t wait to have the relaxing week before my hard as shit classes start for the summer.

Lee Hall
So lately this new girl named Namrata has been coming over and hanging out with all of us in the wing of lee hall that I live on. She seems pretty chill and for some reason her and I have actually gotten into a little bit of a fight. Not a bad fight, but more of a playful fight. She makes fun of me by calling me dumb, fat, etc. I tend to make fun of her for being Asian, a bad driver, and for using improper English. This all began when I was standing behind a friend of mine and I was rubbing their head. She looked across the room at me and made a hitting motion for me to hit him in the head…but let’s just say it didn’t quite look like she wanted me to hit him in the head. Looked more like she wanted me to rub or stroke something…if you catch my drift. ;) So anyway, I ended up calling her out in front of the whole room of people and she was really embarrassed that everyone saw and was now commenting on the fact that she did that. The next night we went out to a party and Namrata took some photos and posted them on facebook. When she tagged me in the photos she also commented on the photos and called me gay. Said I looked gay and acted gay to get back at me for the other night. So basically now we go back and forth making fun of each other and poking fun of each other. She posted another photo of me on facebook and said I was tagged as that specific dog because it was the ugliest. So I put up a ton of photos of fat chicks and tagged her in all 9 of them. She has yet to realize the photos and the photos have been up for a few days now. I think I will back off for a few days, but once she thinks I am done getting her back, I will strike again. I love joking around with people and having these little fights with others. Keeps life interesting.

Tipping at restaurants
Do you ever wonder what you should tip while at a restaurant? I always wonder what kind of a tip I should leave. Should I leave a larger tip because that’s 15-20% of the bill or should I tip depending on how good of a waiter/waitress they are? I believe you should tip based on multiple things. A combination of how much you ordered and had the waiter/waitress deliver to the table, how many times they came back to check on you, how crowded the restaurants is while you are there, and finally how the waiter/waitress treats your table. I once had a terrible waitress at Friendly’s who would walk around the restaurant to avoid our table and to avoid us asking her for more drinks. She filled the drinks once and never came back. She had an attitude when she did serve us and would slam cups down and just was completely rude to us. I mean I could understand if it was a stressful hour or if it was extremely busy, but there was no one there and we didn’t even order that much. So anyway the total ended up being about $19.88 and we decided to leave the $0.12 tip for her to keep for all her work and attitude. But I don’t want you to think I am a stingy person, because I am not that at all. I understand being a waiter/waitress is a difficult job and you never get much thanks for all your work, so if your nice and treat the people at my table with respect and we leave happy, I will be more than happy to leave you a large tip. One time my girlfriend and I went to Applebee’s after one of her ballet performances because I wanted to spend a little more time with her that night and all we got were some drinks and a small dessert to share. We ended up getting this woman in her 20’s who was the most amazing waitress ever. She made us laugh and have a good time. The night was kind of slow so when she brought us our food and drinks, she sat with us and talked to us about life and jobs and everything. On top of being a great person to talk to, she obviously noticed when our drinks were empty and would refill them immediately and come back and sit down and talk again. She did give a little time to talk alone, but I didn’t mind and neither did my girlfriend because we love being around people and talking to people all the time. So anyway, the total ended up being about $15 and I just put $30 down on the table when she brought us the check because I felt she deserved it. She made the night a blast and defiantly made me want to come back to Applebee’s again just so she could be our waitress. I feel if people were just chill about it and friendly and just polite, the people at the table will understand If it is busy or whatever the reason may be. But once you get an attitude with me, I lose the want to help you out with a large tip. I think you should tip for more of a reason then the total of the check or the number of times they come to the table. I think if you enjoyed your time at the restaurant, then the waiter or waitress did their job and deserve to be shown that with the tip.

Spring Break
Spring break began with a 4 hour drive home with a friend of mine named Jim, my older sister, Tricia, and Abby, my older sister’s dog. We all crammed into tricia’s car with all our luggage in the trunk and began our trip home. Usually my sister will drive home because it is her car and she doesn’t let anyone but her drive it, but since she was up all night studying for a test she had on Friday morning, she allowed me to drive home this one time. We got home so much faster than we normally do because I went about 80/85 the whole way. Compared to how she normally does 65/70 the whole way. So that started the break off well, we got home fast. Then I got to hang out with my family the next few days along with my best friend from high school, Spencer. I also managed to DJ for 2 hours of the 12 hours dance my school puts on each year. I was supposed to DJ from 9-10, but the guy who was supposed to go on from 7-8 didn’t show up and I covered for him. Originally they were going to give my spot to him and I could take his spot, but I wasn’t going to do that. I said I would walk off stage and no DJ before I would lose my 9-10 spot. So they changed their minds and gave me his spot and I also had my spot. It was probably the most fun I had over spring break. I also went up to Mount St Marys to see my ex-ex girlfriend and I ended up chilling there for 2 days. While there I couldn’t stand how messy her room was and so I cleaned and organized her room while she did some homework. She was on spring break the week before vt was, so she had classes and homework and all, so I just kind of chilled while she was busy. We ended up getting back together while I was up there visiting and I am quite excited about that! Her and I had a bad fall out and weren’t really talking, but now we r all better and she is definitely a different and more loving person this time. And the funniest part of Sarah and I getting back together is that all my ex-girlfriends are now talking to me asking me why and wanting to be with me and saying how they will treat me better this time around and how they would be a better option than Sarah. I can’t believe how things in this world work. I don’t get why when someone is single u don’t find the need to tell them u care about them, but as soon as their heart is taken everyone and their sister decides to tell you they love you and now care about you and want you and wish you were single. JC, I was single and you didn’t give a shit, why do u give a shit now?! That was basically my spring break. And then I came back and now wish it was summer time because I don’t want to be doing school work and I just want to hang out and be free from work.

SUPERDANCE
Superdance is a twelve hour danceathon held to raise money for children with Cystic Fibrosis. Every year it is held at my high school, Bishop O'Connell High School, where the students have raised over $3 million since 1976. Superdance is one of the largest High School fund-raising events in the United States, and until recently was the highest fund-raising event for the Cystic Fibrosis foundation. Superdance began the movement to help find a cure for CF, a little known disease that affects 30,000 people in the United States. Each year we have a 12 hour dance where we dance the night away while also playing games, eating food, listen to bands, and all around party for 12 hours straight. No high school I know has anything like this. Each year, each senior class has attempted to top the previous year's Superdance total. The largest amount of money raised was from Superdance 2001, the year that $178,000 was raised prior to and the day of Superdance, and an additional $18,000 was raised after the dance, totaling $196,000. The second highest was Superdance 2006, the year that $186,000 was raised. In 2007, the goal was to raise $200,000 in the hope of breaking the three million dollar mark for the total amount collected. I remember this year when we reached the 3 million mark. The school was so proud of what we had done and the people with CF were so thankful. Nearly all of Bishop O'Connells students attend Superdance, and it has become the unifying event of the school. At the dance, the students receive a Superdance t-shirt, which everyone wears during the dance, creating a sea of identically-shirted dancing students. The dance is run nearly entirely by students on committees, who set up the dance, contract the bands and DJs, count and collect the money, and provide nearly all the labor. They also advertise the dance on the local news stations and radio stations, as well as on a website, www.superdance.org. Superdance is a huge event and I love every part of it. I have DJed for the dance 3 of the 4 years I had been at the high school and am planning on returning this year to DJ again. If anyone would like to come and you are in the DC area on March 13th from 12noon to 12am, hit me up because I can get you in.

Mercedes problems
This was the story I wrote in class, it might not be great, but no one ever promised you it would be. Here it is:
In a dark and cold room, I awoke to a man pacing back and forth. He was mumbling to himself about how he shouldn’t have done it and how he shouldn’t have over reacted. I then began to wake up more and noticed blood on the bed next to me; I freaked out! I thought I had died! I thought I had been stabbed! What was going on?! I jumped up and realizing I am obviously still alive, but I notice a body covered in blood on the floor next to the bed. It was a woman who we had been talking to the night before. I couldn’t remember how we began talking to her or how we got into this room. Then suddenly I remembered; my friends and I had decided to hang out and this must have been what happened. I can’t remember any of the night! All I can remember is doing shots in the hotel room and then I blacked out. What did I do to get here? Why was my friend covered in blood and a woman dead on the floor? What was I going to do to get out of here? I quickly grabbed my friend and ran out of the house. My Mercedes was sitting in the lot. Why the hell was my $100,000 car here? Did we drive it drunk? As I walked closer to it I began to worry more and more about what we did to it. As soon as I got close enough I saw all the scratches and dents; the hood was also popped for some reason. I guess we tried to do some late night engine work. I hope not, because we probably messed some shit up bad. Anyway, I didn’t care anymore; I would fix the body later. I threw my friend in the car and threw all the beer out; just in time to hear the police sirens. I jumped in the car myself. I tried to hit the start button and the car wouldn’t recognize the key was in the car. Was the key in the car? I had no idea where I could be otherwise; I searched my pockets. When I couldn’t find it I ran back inside to discover the key was on the end table with both my wallet and receipts. I quickly ran outside and jump in the car and drove off before the sirens got to close. I managed to make it down the street and around the corner, but I knew the cops would be looking for me. I began to drive toward my home when I happen to break down on the highway. With both my friend covered in blood and both of us still drug off our asses, a cop pulls up with his lights on to help us because we have broken down. The cop helped us get out car over by keeping traffic back and once he had us to the side I knew he was going to arrest us for DUI, so I decided I had to do something. I would back up into his car and pin him while he was walking around the car. I knew my transmission was out in drive, but I hoped I would still have reverse. So I gassed it and realized my car only had reverse, so I kept going in reverse until I cleared the car and cop and fled backwards. I ended up making it home and ditching the car off a mountain b/c who need such an expensive car anyway, all u do is worry about scratches and dents and how u might mess it up. So I had to explain to my wife where the Mercedes went, and I told her it was just having too many problems and I couldn’t keep it. She’ll never know what really happen that Friday night, but I will always remember those few parts I wasn’t blacked out for.

DAS BOOT!
So recently I watched the movie Beerfest and I thought it was kind of funny about the whole story of training to drink and how the big deal was drinking from the boot. Well my birthday was this weekend and for my birthday my best friend got me a glass boot to drink from! :) I haven’t drunk from it yet, but I plan to drink from it soon and maybe we will get a second to make it a challenge/game. So my birthday was this weekend but we r going to celebrate it next weekend. We are going to go out as a group of guys and have a night in WV. :) and we r probably going to have a little other fun once we get back from our night out. But since we didn’t go out on my birthday we decided to at least do something fun to pass the time. So we went bowling of in the break zone. When we got there it was like 845 and we wanted to get the lane for the night, so they let us have a pool table for free while we waited. We ended up playing 2 games on that and then went over and played 2 games of bowling. The 1st game of bowling was played like normal, aiming for the highest score. But for the second game a friend of ours suggested we put the bumpers up and play for the lowest score. That was probably the most fun game ever. Everyone was trying so hard to not knock the pins down, but people ended up getting more strikes and spares when they were trying not to hit the pins, then where they were trying to do well. After we played from 9 until about 11, we left and went to hit up DX. The hall I live on has an addiction to DX late night runs. We seem to go a lot throughout the week. Most nights we go. I typically get the corn dogs and a chicken sandwich when I go. Oh, and of course 3 choc milks. The joys of having food available until 2 am :)

I. Hate. Physics.
Why is my physics teacher so retarded? I absolutely cannot stand my physics teacher. It is probably because the way he likes to teach is not how I learn best. He likes to move through material so fast. He doesn’t even teach us the material. He just expects us to already know it once we get to class. He sends out an email and says “know this material by tomorrow”. I don’t learn well from just reading or teaching myself. I could learn so much more it he would just teach it in class. I wouldn’t even need a textbook then. I learn when people tell me about something, not when I read about it myself. I am not going to say who I have, but I will say who I wish I had. I wish I has chang. His classes are actually learning because he goes through the material and tries to teach the kids. he is a professor for the right reason. My professor is only here because he is valuable for research to the university but cannot teach worth a crap. I learned recently that he is on probation for being a teacher. Aka they are not going to have him teach next year because so many of his kids fail and don’t do well. One thing he does to fix that is that he curves a lot of the grades. That is something that pisses me off, because if people aren’t learning, they y should we get the good grades or get credit like we did do a good job. I mean I like good grades and all, but not for something when I haven’t shit. It just annoying to me to think people get credit for this and don’t actually do what they need to. I think I am just mad at this because everyone I know got a good teacher, and I got fucked over. It is just really annoying and now I have to find people to study with because his tests are going to be different then everyone else I know. I don’t really like my classes this semester, but I just have to get through it to move on to better classes next semester. I hope I have someone better for physics next semester.

random thinking....
Does anyone else wonder if college is right for them? I have so many days where I wonder if I should be here in college or if I should just start working for a year or 2 and then come back to go to school. Some days I can’t see myself doing anything useful with my life without a college degree and other days I think of all the people who have done great things without a college degree. And I ask myself, do I need to be in college? Do I need to spend all this money on these classes? Or could I just go out there and start making enough money to life like how I want to.
Do you ever sit around and wonder which cars you want to drive when you’re older? Do you ever sit around and wonder what your family and life are going to be like when you’re older? Do ever sit around and wonder what I what to get out of life? I do. I sit around in my free time when I have nothing else to be doing and I dream about what cars I want, how I want my kids to act, how I want my marriage to be, how I want my house and yard to look like, and how I want life to go for me. I sit around making cars online seeing how much money I will spend on those. I also look at which boats, atvs, motorcycles, and fun toys I will have in my life. I hope to have a decent house, with a huge yard, a few dogs, tons of cars, 2 boats, some atvs, a motorcycle or 2, and a loving family without spoiled kids.
When I think about how I want to live and whether or not I want to go to college, I realize I need a good job and need a lot of money. And to get a good job I need a college degree. This is frustrating because I wish I could just start my life now. I don’t want to wait 4-5 more years to do what I feel like would be the start of my life.

introduce urself
Well I guess for this first blog ill just tell you a little about me. I am 18 years old and am a freshman at VT. I am currently living in Lee Hall as a part of the Galileo Engineering Community. I am single at the moment, but don’t wait too long, I could get snagged up any day. I am from nova, burke to be exact. I drive 2 cars, a ‘92 Cadillac DeVille and a ‘08 Hyundai Sonata. I love music and DJing and pretty much anything involving a good beat and some dancing. My friends and I actually started a dance party in the 7th floor lounge of Lee Hall by room 703. We turn our lounge into a little pre-game dance party. We party from 7-11 every Saturday night and it basically to get you ready and excited to go out to those house parties and dance there. We have all kinds of music playing, strobe lights, and even a black light in the middle of the room. It looks ridiculous and everyone who passes wishes they had something like this started at the beginning of the year for all the residents or something in one of the buildings. We are trying to keep this party going all year long, every Saturday. Come by if you want to have a good time. It’s free for all and its always a blast. So anyway, back to me. I am 6’4” and I love cars, boats, and pretty much anything with an engine that will go fast. I am looking into a ISE (Industrial Systems Engineering) major. I hope to one day have a pretty big family, a loving wife, a good sized house, and as many nice cars as I can afford, preferably Classic American Muscle cars. I also plan to use a lot of the money I earn to help family and others so that their life will be easier and they will not have to worry about bills and worry about living paycheck to paycheck. I know how that feels and it is no fun. So I want to make others lives the best they can be. And one last thing, I like to hear jokes and make jokes so don’t be afraid to come up and just tell me a joke. I am easy to talk to and will be friends will anyone.
