'Some days are dry, some days are leaky. Some days come clean, other days are sneaky. Some days take less, but most days take more. Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor. Some days you're quick, but most days you're speedy. Some days you use more force than is necessary. Some days just drop in on us, some days are better than others. Some days it all adds up, and what you got, is enough. Some days are better than others. Some days are sleepy, other days are sloppy. Some days you can't stand the sight of a puppy. Your skin is white, but you think you're a brother, some days are better than others. Some days you wake up with her complaining. Some sunny days you wish it was raining. Some days are sulky, some days have a grin. And some days are bouncers who won't let you in. Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place. Some days are better than others. Some days are ours, some days are not. Some days you're thankful for what you got. Some days you wake up in the army. And some days it's the navy. Some days are work, most days you're lazy. Some days you feel like a bit of a baby; looking for jesus and his mother. Some days are better than others. Some days you feel ahead, you're making sense of what she said. Some days are better than others. Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place. Some days are better than others.'

U2 forgot to mention that 'Some days you won't have a lot of homework to do. Some days your teachers will shit on you' which is what appears to be happening as this year (and cluster of four years) draws to a much awatied close. And as I take this break in my actual work to write this, I am thinking why I am even bothering to do any of this work. I don't get it. I not only know what school I am going to, I know what classes I'm placed in, and when I am taking them, hell, I know all my teachers already. But you know what, that doesn't stop some people from assigning papers at the end of the school year. I suppose this is his idea of getting us prepared for real life, well, thanks, but no thanks. Sorry to say it but there are better ways to accomplish this. So right now I take a break to write this. This break was mostly brought on by Hans who was unbelieveably kind and brought me a dozen krispe kreme donoughts out of the blue. I have already eaten four and I am currently staring at the half eaten fifth doughnut and cursing myself. But they are so damn good, I can't help myself. The mentality I am using to do all this work now, is that it doesn't matter how tired I am tomorrow cause there wil plenty of time to make up sleep later, course, I got almost no sleep last night, so that could be bad. Which reminds me, I never told you about the other half of my U of I trip. this morning I had breakfast and (restrains self from picking up 6th doughnut while telling this story) went to the hall to see the morning presentations. And I got to play a trivia game on stage, yay!. I didn't win anything. I got second of three people. Myself and this other guy knew everything, he was just a little quicker on the buzzer than I was. The other player was this girl who I'm not sure ever even buzzed in. I don't really care, I felt the whole thing was dumb anyway. So I went to a couple more pointless discussions where I learned more nothing. Then I ate lunch with Amy and a couple of her friends, followed by going to get my ID card. The U of I ID card is worthless as far as a standasr form of ID goes because it has no useful numbers on it, just a barcode with your ID number for getting food and stuff. But I still want to see what the hall monitors will do if I show that to them when going off campus. Then I signed up for all my classes which went really well, I don't have any classes before 10 am, and I only have about two hours of class on friday. I suppose there is one part of that that is subject to change, but not much. I was driving back here, and about 80 miles into the trip (roughly half way) I was going to pass a truck and I moved over into the left lane and kinda went onto the shoulder a little bit and I was like, whoop, okay, gotta pay a little more attention there. My mom and I both laughed, and then sat silent. About two miles later I just pulled the car to the side of the road and said, "okay I'm going to fall asleep any second now, why don't you go ahead and drive :)". So I did get some sleep today in the car on the way home. There was a big massive 4 ro 5 car accident on 290 on the way home, and once again, everyone had to get a real good luck so that took forever and a day. Now I have crap to get back to, I bid you adeiu for tonight.
