Make haste slowly

All started off well on Dec. 21st. This was the day that winter break started and I relaxed from the rigors known as the civil engineering program. I started by playing a few games on and off for the first couple of days. I was very productive at doing nothing as I imagine anyone could be. Soon game became a bore but I found and alternative in music which I found more than I ever could imagine. I expanded my collection by about half of what I started with before the break. Soon my collection will break the 600 album barrier permanently. For about three weeks I found new music non-stop and I’ve enjoyed listening to it constantly while I have nothing to do — work as well as school related.

I was going to have worked this winter break by training people for the company I used to work for. I was approached during the semester to do so and all sounded well and good but, much to my disappointment that would not turn out to be the case. In the weeks after I had quit the company had decided pack up all their things and move down to Fresno — which is where they wanted me to train people — but had neglected to tell me that they had closed the branch up here. I’m sure they had a good economic reason for this and all yet I cannot help but be furious at them for leaving everyone in this town who worked for them to find other opportunities.  As far as I know they still want me to work for them at some point but now that I know all of this I don’t know if i can stand the thought of working for a malign company such is them.

As far as my socializing went this break there were many parties and bar outings to be had and I took most of the offers up. Met a few women and realized the certain ones were better for me than others. Thought about Ex’s and how they have changed my perspective on perception of the opposite sex. I’m glad those Ex’s did what they did because now I know what I don’t want in a relationship. Unfortunately the my latest attraction leaves apprehensive whenever I see her; which leaves me in an uneasy position toward her. I intend to find out what all of that means.

Next week classes start and my loan hasn’t shown up yet which has made me somewhat nervous since last go around the check was more than just a bit late. I have enough to cover it all but just one time I think everything should just align correctly. Last semester was an extreme semester for me and I believe I’ve toned it down just a little bit even though I’m taking the same number of units as last. My real gripe about the place is that they’ve somewhat mislead me. The first semester I was assured that they offered Environmental engineering as a option but I have come to find out that this is only the case when the planets have correctly aligned and hell freezes over when this happens. They was talk of really offering the courses but it’s looking more and more like I might need to move to Humboldt to finish what I want to do.
