Night one!

Posted by bretthperkins on March 28, 2008

So, tonight fucking rocked!!!  We had so much fun.  The trip down was so much fun.  I rode down with Lissa, Carl and Jake and it was just really, REALLY good conversation.  Then, when we got to Memphis, we all just cut loose!  We went down to Beale Street and had some drinks, and the coolest part was that we all got to take our drinks to the street.  We all watched some guys doing some crazy gymnastics down the street and had some drinks called “Superman with Kryptonite” and those were fucking AWESOME!!!  The made most of their drinks with PGA and they were awesome and I of course had some Long Island Iced Tea.  It was good.  And then we all ended up at Denny’s.  It was a gr8 night!!!  I would blog more but I am still a bit intoxicated, so this is it!  I’ll post some more tomorrow!!!  Night Night!

Its been gr8 so far…

Posted by bretthperkins on February 7, 2008

My year, thus far, has been pretty good.  I have pretty much stuck to my diet.  At any rate, my habits are improving a great deal!!!  I am really starting to feel different.  I have more energy, but eat less and rarely drink coffee…  go figure!  I am not losing weight as quickly as when I started, but it is still coming off.  I knew that would happen.  I may not be at my goal in May like I wanted, but I will be well on my way.

School, thus far, has been quite easy.  I am only in 3 classes, so that helps.  I really like the classes I am in, too, so that makes it easier to show up! :-p

Kristin was in town for a few days, and it was nice to have some Kristin time.  Not much has really changed with her at all.  I find this both comforting and troublesome.  At any rate, I was glad to see her.  :-)

I am looking forward to tonight.  AITP, a group I am a member of at school, is hosting an event at Buffalo Wild Wings, and I know that I am going to have a great time.  I have recently stepped up in that group and am an officer now, and do some of the planning for these events we attend.  I really enjoy contributing to the group, and I know that it will help me solidify my relationships with the faculty in my department.  I NEED GOOD REFERENCES!!!  :-)

As for everything else…  More of the same.  Which, in and of itself, isn’t necessarily a bad thing. :-)

The light…

Posted by bretthperkins on January 17, 2008

So, I registered for classes and all, and I thought that I had to keep 12 hours, but guess what!?!?  I don’t!!!  I am registered for only 9 hours!!!  That’s it, folks…  3 classes and I am done!!!  I am absolutely thrilled!!!  The classes that I still have to take are going to be demanding, but I am sure I will do fine.  I have to take Web Oriented Programming, which I think is actually going to be very fun.  My buddy Karl is in it with me, he and I get along well and we work well together, so we’ll be working a lot together in that class.  He is in my other two classes, too.  After that class is my Decision Science Techniques class, which is essentially uber-advanced Excel.  This class will be challenging, but I think I am going to do just fine.  I have a massive break and then I have Business Policy, which is the last class that you take as an undergrad for the School of Business.  This class will be a lot of research.  Of the three, I dislike the last one most.  BUT, I am going to get through this semester with no problem, I predict.

Its a little poetic, but when I started MTSU back in 2002, my very first class was ENGL-1010, and it was in BAS S262.  This, my last semester of school, I am taking the last class that you take with my curriculum, BUAD 4980 (Policy) and it is in BAS S262.  It is like I have come full circle.  I started school at 20 years old, knowing almost nothing compared to what I know now…  And I leave through the same room I entered ready to take on the world.

Its scary…  I know that I will do well, I am not concerned about being able to make it, but I fear what will become of me.  Will I change?  Of course, that is a silly question…  Of course I will change.  I change a little bit every day.  I honestly don’t know how I am going to handle NOT being in school…  It has been that way since I can remember.  School, Work, then time for me.  I am very much looking forward to having my ME time, but I think that I will need to get a second job to make up for all the money I am going to have to start paying back…  I borrowed SO much money.  I don’t regret doing it, but I know it will be a struggle to pay it back.  Getting a better job beyond Wal-Mart will help.  I will probably get a second job, part-time, just to make a lil extra and eat up some of my time.  I don’t know, though.

I have a lot of decisions to make, but none are that pressing at the moment.  I do know that I am going to begin looking for a job this semester, and I will be attending some serious Job Fairs.  Opportunity will be knocking, and I plan on being “home” to let it in.  :-)
