Back to Big Ten Country


So now that I'm back to school, I will probably slack quite a bit on the blog -- both a combination of lots of work and not as much going on as was happening in Alaska. However, still lots of fun stuff to talk about.


Classes have been going pretty well so far -- lots of computer programming, which makes me very happy that I learned some of it over the summer. Tropical meteorology has been good fun as well with all the storms in the Atlantic and such. I've also been taking fencing, which is pretty neat since the team has won 10 or so national championships. I haven't gotten to use the swords yet, but I hope so soon :-)

It was nice to get back and see all my friends...even though some are missing either studying abroad or having graduated. Lots of fun and craziness has ensued, and I'm sure much more craziness is on the way. The bar scene is interesting around here -- exceptionally busy to say the least. Football has been awesome though -- our team is looking awesome this year. It will be interesting to see what happens when we face a big-time opponent, but given how the season is going so far, it seems like a 1-loss or undefeated season isn't out of the question.


It's going to be an insanely busy semester to say the least -- in the coming weeks I'll be meeting with professors, working on some research, busting my butt with classes, taking GRE's, scheduling my last semester of undergraduate classes, and trying to enjoy the niceties of being a college student all at the same time! Whew...it's going to be quite the ride.

Anyways, just thought I'd give an update to everyone! Hopefully I'll keep up on this pretty well, and if I don't, yell at me! :-)
