where did all the time go?


it's been a tough week. what was supposed to be my break has turned into a parody of a typical week in college...without the studying. i'm not complaining...alright, let me rephrase that...i'm not complaining much because it really is my choice to do all this, but i had no idea that biz council work would be this tight. i remember helen and i sifting through workloads for the evening ball, but this is ridiculous. a charity event that basically writes itself has now been rewritten by us [rather unwillingly], and it's really affecting melissa and i. well, it's affecting melissa a lot more than it's affecting me, but...c'mon...give me a break. then again, i'm the president; and this is my job. i suppose that i'm going to get used to it. though it would've been nice if i could've slept in for a few days.

the christmas charity drive itself is going on well enough...monday starts off a another week of promotions, but instead of the usual funkyhippopotamus-diy promotional job, we're going in as a group. solidarity and convenience. rather brilliant. on the amount of stuff that we hope to collect, along with the cash that we're hoping that people will contribute [personally, i'm against the collection of money], i suppose that we can manage a fair amount. though i really have to remind people that we're not collecting junk; just stuff that's in good condition.

you'd think that people would understand that by now.

on the homefront, things are looking fine. been playing fifa like mad...cambridge united have defeated arsenal in the semi-final of the english cup to book a place in the grand final...1-0 in extra time, believe it or not. not that it'd ever happen to the real cambridge united, though i'd recommend a 3-4-3 formation with the flanks being extra effective. not that i know anything about football.

the week of video gaming and sleeping that i'd planned has come and gone...not that it's been fruitful. on another homefront triumph, i've managed to download the entire first season of the o.c.. now, the planned o.c. watching that i'd had in mind has...well, disappeared. it sucks when you've got no time to have fun. i suppose that my social life is going to come blank next as a result of all this.

the semester commences again on monday. hrm 310, issues in human resource management. just one subject for me, thank you very much. i've got games to play and series to see.
