<108> Imagine it all: Today has been a long day, I'm tired out, but it was a good day overall.  I've noticed that I haven't written for a week and it's scary because time is just flying by lately.  That's a good thing though because things here have been so great.  My classes aren't too tough, but a few do require a lot of attention and work each week, a lot more then I dealt with last year, but I'm getting by.   I've been able to manage my time.  Basically all I do is eat, sleep, work, and go out with my friends... and since I have time to do the latter I cannot complain about it because at least I get to do that.  Actually I do that quite a bit, so I'm definitely not complaining.  My hardest class is probably my Video & Animation Technology class, but it's one of the most useful/interesting classes I've had here so far, so I like it even though it's a pain in the ass.  This week I actually have a light load of homework for a change, so hopefully I will have some free time to get other things done this week which I've been putting off for awhile.  I had my studio class today, we're still focusing on HTML and JavaScript right now... yeah stuff I've been doing for years, but most people in the class are still beginners.  It's nice being able to go around and help my friends though and feel like I know what I'm doing.  The class is a lot of fun though too.  My prof is crazy.. she's great!  She keeps even the lectures pretty interesting and we play a lot.  We played dodge ball today.  I felt like gym class had returned, it was great.  My prof was talking about the future today in here lecture and about what all of us can accomplish, etc... it was kind of inspiring... something that couldn't hurt me considering the lack of updates and creative output on my part lately.  Give me time I guess....  After we got out of class I went to Rittenhouse to hack with two of my roommates.  I haven't been there much at all this year, which is nuts because it's been pretty nice up until this week.  I don't really know what kept me from going these past 3 weeks.  I mean, I've been here, but I guess I've been preoccupied.  I haven't even been online that much lately, or actually just haven't been online for extended amounts of time lately.   But anyway, it was really nice out today, which was welcomed for a change considering the last couple of days have been very cold for what we're all used to.   I enjoyed it, but who knows how much longer it will last, afterall, it is fall now.   I already miss my warm weather and it's not even fully gone yet.  I had planned to sit down and do some homework tonight, but I checked my email and found out my early class tomorrow has been canceled, so I only have class from 4-7pm... so I think I'll just take it easy and do easy stuff tonight.  It's only Tuesday and I need a break, don't you just hate me?  Animation on Monday nights from 4-10pm really drain me at the start of the week, so by the middle I'm dragging... lucky for me my weekend begins on Thursday at 11:30am haha.  So I guess that's pretty much what's been going on lately.   As I said, things here are amazing, everyone and everything is great and it's hard to believe sometimes that things have finally balanced out.  Oh, and I got a job too.   I'm the new editor at eDevCafe.com, a great site and I'm really looking forward to being part of the team.  I just started yesterday, so I can't exactly say how it's working out just yet, but so far it seems great to me and it's going to really help me to have a little extra money coming in every month.  I really want to start getting some of my more current work up on this site.  I just haven't had time to go through it all, not to mention make any major updates to either of my sites... all in good time I guess but I feel like I've been lagging a lot lately with my sites and I hate that.  I mean, yes I have a lot going on with school and such, plus being here in my own place with my friends... I'm having a great time overall - but I don't want to neglect older things that have always been important to me.  I can't let it get too far behind.  But it will all get done.   If I have to, I'll just wait until a break from school and get most things done at once, otherwise little by little, there will be changes, updates, and everything else... all I need is time.
