Bullet Points, Like This

Random thoughts = random blog post. Hit list time!
  • Sometimes it's hard to justify some of my favorite "things" in life. Such is the case with the film American Pie. It's been years since I've watched it, but I always put it among my top fifteen favorite movies. Having watched it again last night, I can safely say that despite a few aged-jokes, this film has aged gracefully. For being a landmark movie in the "teen sex comedy" sub-genre, it's weird to see so many films today that have roots in American Pie (I'm looking at you, Superbad).
  • My mind is scattered: between the excitement of my last semester at BGSU coming up (and graduation imminent!), I'm spending more time thinking about life outside of northwest Ohio, away from my parents, and the type of person I think I can be on my own (read: a lot more active than I am in my borefest-of-a-home now).
  • There are a few things that I know I need to do as a maturing student: I need to write more often, and I need to program more often. I'm not motivated to do either one. Why do I feel so crappy about my major interests all the time? Maybe I'm overdue for a reset?
  • Finally, my previous blog post seemed to cause a few people to misinterpret my words which isn't terribly surprising. However, I meant no ill advice by any of the post - it was merely supposed to be a reflective and creative piece. Ah well, no harm done, hopefully.
Anywho, I'm experiencing a bit of anger mixed with a nice, cool, smooth blend of depression. I'm not quite sure how this rut started, or what the root causes are, but I certainly have my ideas (and they aren't anything that anyone would be remotely interested in). Hopefully the holidays come and go as quickly as possible. I'm looking forward to being busy with school again.

Finally, if nothing else, New Years should be a blast this year. If nothing else, I'm looking forward to drinking: something that I haven't done in a long time, and it'll be nice to kick several dozen proofs of liquor back with some friends.

B3 out.
