It is strange how one year can feel like an eternity.....

RIP.

Ask for an update eh?

Only for you Ne(i)l....haha

So I'm not even really sure if I have much to say.  I feel good everything is going great.  Playing sports again.... blah, blah, blah.  You prolly all already know al of this anyway.

 Read Tom's thing and it made me realize I havent talked to Lauren either.  Way to make me feel terrible too Tom.

The state wrestling tournament was this weekend.  It was funny having all the little kids down here.  Lil' Granger finally growed up, just like me.  I have to say it turned out to be a pretty damn fun weekend.

I really miss lots of people, but I don't seem to have any weekends the rest of the semester to go visit anyone.  I guess everyone will just have to come here...Which kinda reminds me, I miss a lot of things and here is my list:

Not losing any basketbal games (especially at the House of 'Paign)

On that same note, Deron Williams

Not recieving drunk dials (I seemed to get a lot more of those last year)

Not getting 3 meals a day for "free" (even if the dorm food sucked)

Enjoying my classes even a little bit

Playing tackle football

Having ugly-ass long hair

EDIT:  Eating Taco Bell (more than once every 3 months)

and FINALLY .....summer VACATION (not work, not school, just vacation and doing whatever we wanted)

There is prolly a lot more where that came from, but I didnt want to spend actual time on this thing.

I will also prolly be missing the last month or so of summer this year studying abroad, but we can't all be as lucky as some people and I am "settling" for Vienna, Austria.  Though I am pretty sure it is gonna be wicked ahhhsome.

Well, I am tired, so that is all you get from me tonight.....maybe I'll actually start doing this again.....

nah, but anyways.

Merry Christmas.

Well, its almost here.  The moment I have been waiting for all year round apparently.  Though really, it is clearly more than that, but my sign off will finally make REAL sense to everyone. YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

So anyway, been getting some mysterious calls/ online messages lately.  No idea who they are from, but they humor me.  Sometimest is nice to know someone cares enough to prank call you, haha.

Break's been real slow, but dare I say I almost like it. I mean, no schoolwork, hardly any worries, not to mention it is by far my favorite time of the year.  Would like to see more people and more often.  I'm gonna have to work on that......

I finally went up to the Doc in Chi-town and I can actually lift and play sports again.  Too bad I am horribly HORRIBLY out of shape right now.....

Guess that is bout it, pretty boring, I know, I'm sorry everyone.....I honestly just felt compelled to do this for one simple reason......

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!

Well, it looks like I'm bored......really bored, but I kinda enjoy these things and its seems like they have gone down the drain.

Tonight was a nice night, though it got to be a lil tense too.  My Bulls won their fourth straight, but more importantly, my Illini boys remained undefeated.  To top it off the victory was a little sweeter than usual, beating up on UNC (if you watched the game it wasn't as close as the score said).  Also, we got a committment from Eric Gordaon today.  I know that none of you know who that is, but go ahead and look him up.  He's kind of a big deal...... 

Back at school, Thanksgiving went by soooooo fast.  Come to think of it, I guess everything goes by that fast anymore.  I cant believe that this semester is over ALREADY. Not that I'm complaining, I can't wait for Christmas break.  I hardly got to see anyone over break, let alone spend time with hardly anyone.  Hopefully that will be a lot better over Christmas.  Though I guess I'd say break was real nice besides that......

So, a couple weeks ago my friend Mr. Smith wrote a post on here about a post he made a year before that.  So basically it got me looking back on my own old posts and I found some pretty good stuff, including this little comment, and I quote....

"Good luck with the frat thing. If you do join one, you still have to let me come hang out, cause I don't think I ever will join one." 

 Now who would say something like that, but Mr. Mark Ryan, new-I of the wonderful Simga Pi fraternity.

So I got elected to be secretary of the fraternity yesterday.....

I honestly can't really think of that much that has happened in the last month and a half since I last posted on this bad-boy......sad really.

I have a lot more to say, but I don't really know if it is fitting for this post, so I think I'm gonna save it for later.  And if you feel like you REALLY have to know, find a way to talk to me beside through this crap.

My sign-off is so close to actually making sense to the rest of the world, so without further delay.....

Merry Christmas.

So today...... well I guess now it would technically have to be yesterday, was Mr. Nate Bell's Birthday.

 That reminds me.  Who, if anyone, is still planning on coming here this coming weekend to celebrate the worst birthday til 50????  C'mon you know you want to.  I know you don't want to see me, but TOM is going to be here, and I know you all love his hairy ass.

Yeah other than that not much is really going on here.  Finally getting comfortable again.  This year is definetily better than first semester last year.  And who knows, maybe a miracle could occur and it could surpass second semester last year.......doubt it.

I guess that is about it. Let me know bout this weekend.

Merry Christmas.
