Its the big one, folks! Entry numero 50! This entry comes at the end of April with May looming right around the corner. May brings June. And June? June brings me home. I booked my ticket back home for mid-June. It really hit hard. I can't believe it's been a school year almost. I wish I could stay just a little bit longer. But, alas, I must return to my original alma mater to see what's going on. It's gonna be a bit depressing. I think I'm going to get hit by massive cultural shock. My feelings towards American Football have completely 180'ed over the year. I used to like it but now I realize that its the reason I have A.D.D. 20 seconds of play, 2 minutes of commercial, rinse, repeat. Its really quite ridiculous.
What's wrong with proper football? Nothing at all. People say it's a wussy sport. But we're talking about running for 45 minutes straight...TWICE! There's no commercial breaks. No time outs. The only break you get is when somebody falls over or when the ball goes out. If the argument is that there is no hitting in football, that's just a stupid argument. You have to be incredibly aggressive trying to get the ball from the other guy. Just because you're not hitting the person head on does not mean its stupid.
I will definitely miss playing football a lot. Nobody really plays at Albright. And the American style of futbol is just run after the ball. That's so ghey. I think futbol is more of an upper-middle-class WASP sport. I'll also miss watching football. Football was on twice, three times a week and it was easily accessible. Now, I'm going to have to watch it via chinese tv or something. *lets out one big sigh* But I don't think anybody really understands.
Regardless, I am focusing on what is happening NOW. For example, I am writing an essay on the most boring part of the world, Scandinavia. And I want to get it basically done before Friday, which is the SPIDER-MAN 3 OPENING WOOOOO!!!! The essay isn't due until next Friday, but after that come finals so I gotta get it done now.
Soon...I will be home.
Soon.
