Today sucked at work, 3 layers of clothing and yet I was still cold. And to think the coldest weather isn't even here. Luckily, all the cars I had to do were equipped with heated seats.

So now you're claiming you'll not only attend but that you'll promptly post pictures afterwards ...those are big words, son.

Bryan wouldn't mind but it too cold to be out there for x amount of hours. It probably gonna be In the teens that night and your asking to get sick. Once it start to warm up like in the 60 at night. I'll make the weekly trips down there for the uncc meet.

On side note might be getting another acura once I get my settlment. Gonna look at it this weekend and probably pick it up the next weekend once I get my check next monday. I feeling great since my wife didn't really put up a fight. I guess it does pay off to be nice to her for Christmas lol.

My dad is in town so I am no go. Also you do realize it is supposed 18 degrees at 8pm. I don't mind the cold when I am doing something outside but standing out side at a meet like UNCC one is not worth it.

8:00am was my first class today and 8:30am is my first class tomorrow. Keep in mind I've never had a class that started before 11:30am before.

It's safe to say this will be an interesting semester.

Raleigh weather is definitely going to make me miss the Wilmington weather.... And the gorgeous girls of course

There are plenty of hot girls in Raleigh, they just wear more clothes than the Wilmington girls

It feels weird to not be in school.

Honestly I liked 8am classes. I know it seems crazy. For me though it worked much better. I 5 or 6pm I was done everyday including working on class work outside of class most days. For some reason I never focus well on school once it was past those hours. So if I had later classes I would just sleep, then go to class, and then do nothing so it wasn't good.

Yeah I have a feeling over the next few days my body will just adjust to waking up that early and yeah being done by 1:15pm MWF is great and begin done by 9:45am on T/TH is even better. At Wilmington I used to be up all hours of the night studying and finishing work cause i would wast the day away waiting around for class so i think this will be much better.


But i miss my car

If you're anything like me, it'll take a few months to get used to it. Then again, I had 7 years of working all hours of the day, so maybe that was my biggest hurdle.

Why couldn't you bring your car with you?

Haha i hope not cause by that time it will be summer and ill be able to sleep in late again!

I couldn't bring it because It's a new city to me and i don't know my way around yet so my parents wanted me to get a sense of direction first and also I'm considering pledging a fraternity so my parents didn't want my car to get shitted on having to drive people around and stuff like that which I totally agree with.
