I wander aimlessly into Ogolsby Student union and they give me a nifty free Flu shot. Isn't that nice? They were also handing out free burger samples, buns, condaments and all that stuff included, compliments of hardees.

Then a class mate from contemporarly english, Ian, sees me and hangs out with me while I wait in line for the shot and get a bite to eat, also for free. Ian is a rather dapper, semi charismatic young man; kind of what you would expect in apperance from reading pride and prejudice. Ian and many other students have taken a great liking to me.

There are students in my short story class who know my name when I h aven't even met them. I ran into one last night and she made a point of giving me her name because although she knew who I was she didn't belive she had ever given me her name.

I have a headache and Im tempted to march over to the Bocha cafe, where I was last night. I had gone there to get a phone card because my best freind was going to call me back and I wanted to make sure that I had plenty of minuetes. It never materialized but im sure the walk did me good. It was completely on the opposite side of campus too. It was delightfully chilly. But oh yes anyhow Bocha cafe has marvelous smoothies.

Autumn has finally come. I love it so. My house retains heat like the devil so my electirc bill is going to plumet further into non existance... In time (knocks on wood with a tounge in cheek) I may hae to start paying in quarters :-)

Life would be great except for that whole marching through the cold for a phone card thing. but that was my choice

FREE FUL SHOT HOOORAY! I registered sucessfully for clasess. It looks like I will be entering the military after this because the blasted school of engineering has still yet to contact me :-( God my head hurts. Kick boxing tonight. :p

It was all fantastic, and oddly free.

In short story class my freind Jessie and now my teacher know about my intrest in Materials Engineering and Aerospace. It gets kind of akward when they casually talk about the fate of our civilization, and then one concludes to the other, "Patrick will save us all. "

Its in jest, but stil akward.

Entropy = pain

I'm frightened of losing the people I value, or person I guese. I put a lot of value into just a few people and I don't want to loose touch with them.

In the past people would die or move away and Im no longer frightened of that. But, I see someone... something happening.

I can be pretty handy just being by myself. I may get lonely and want someone to talk to but I have been alone before, I can be alone again. I don't want to damage other peoples lives, so I think I will cool it for a while, perhaps I will never come back to that great freinship, perhaps I will give it a week. I don't know, I can't tell, I can't say.

again I have to shout from the roof tops that I have been accepted into the advanced poetry class which puts me half a semster ahead to graduate with the English BA in the creative writing track. But I love science so much. Science supplies me with so many ideas and my knowledge of it makes elements of my fiction so much more plausable or real.

I can connect sudden infant death syndrome with orginal sin, as some authors no doubt already have. I can contrast the hardness of Carbon 60 with the weakness of the human heart. I guese I was born to write some kind of science fiction. But heck Im working on a fantasy now , called "shadow child". Im alternateing between that and my novel project. I want my novel published soon and I have no shame in admiting that I may put shadow child on the back burner if I need too

I keep writing it, first because I feeel it is a story I need to tell (as all my stories are), and two it is Amy's favorite among my projects. But I could be so proud of the novel.

I am sleepy and I have no one to talk to. but like I said, I can be alone. Alone is okay. Alone is sufficent.

FSU is an exciting place and even if I cannot sleep before Three AM I am sure I can write or find something to do.
ä s still equals pain
Entropy
But it brings strenght and truth don't you think. Pain, chaos, a forge to temper your soul like some kind of metal. Mabey thats what I like so much about Europe.

first let me say that I had a midterm in Contemporary literature today, and that I completely rocked it's face off! My answers were longer and more analytical than they needed to be,so I am dead to rights certain that I got an A.

I pranced to Starbucks coffee to celibrate where I had the best Creme chese danish and (sickiningly sweet) java chip frap I have ever had. It was all so much sweeter for the victory over our languages literarly cannon. So far perfect scores on everything that class throws at me.

I was thinking about this new girlfreind of mine. Life is awsome isn't it? Im going to go on picnics with her, see movies, go to church and frolic with her. It will be great. Shes coming over tonight to study for chemistry... like she dose almost every tuesday night.

Finally, depsite the fact that this has been the best day in a long time, It seemed like nothing could get me down, I have to conclude that Jack Thompson is a gigantic pirq. I was reading some of the stuff he has written to various web comicy folks and he must come from the planet "total dick" to be able to prance about like that. check out todays news http://www.penny-arcade.com/ ... scroll down for "Yack Thompson" and also explore his link to Vgcats chronicles of Jack's correspondence.

Anyhow I am hungry and must study for tommorow. Winks.

But first still no workd back from school of engineering regarding graduate work :-( however If i have to I may just double minor in film and german (for some reason I already have credit built up with the film department :-/) ... an interesting class I have seen that compliments the two would be German film.

Im only considering this because one it would b e nice to learn the language of the country I was born in... and easy too. And two Film would help me promote my novel... when inevitable it is put to film... (bleeds confidence) like i said its the best day ever.

Some of my freinds say that I am tactless either that or you bastard. So I was thinking what kind of person in literature, film ect. dose that make me comprable to when the Film "meet Joe black" came on. And I realized I was as tactless as death... way to go.
