I am so freaking happy that this is the last week of blogs. I was running out of ideas my brain was strating to die. But now that is all set and done what should I do with all this time that I have at hand. I probably will go to sleep or just waist it even tough I realy shouldn’t. I should use it as study time for all my finals and then get some rest for the week ahead which should be a hard week with test and work and everything else going on. But after that summer time to relax and take summer school.
This week has been crazy I have to study for this entire test and do all the projects and papers. All this fell on me at the same time plus I have all this fraternity stuff that I have to do to be initiated by the end of this semester and that would be really cool so I can be an initiated member by that time and have ill bros I’m very excited to do this. So I can influence other members to go through and do their stuff so they can come to the fraternity as one person and leave a better man than he got there as I hope I do also. At first I thought I was not going to care about all that family stuff but once I went through the first ritual I realize the importance and the influence that the fraternity can give me.
I went to see the play animal farm and it was very very long. It was very different and I really didn’t like it because of the third person talking and they were different animals all the time and you didn’t know when they wear which animals. It seemed that I was lost and did not know what was going on I didn’t know when they where humans or when they were animals. I think that maybe if they would have had more cast members and given some of them costumes so you can distinguish them better but that is just my personal opinion. Maybe it was just me and I like the more humoristic plays but it was ok definitely not my favorite play that I have seen at Memphis.
This is the last week of school and it seems that we started not long ago. I’m already done with my first college year. I already have my summer classes picked out and my fall classes. When they tell you that time flies and you should take advantage of it they are not laying. Ever since I got to high school I heard everyone saying that your time in high school will never come back and they are right. It seemed that I had so long before I graduated and that I had so much time before I had to pick a college to go to and then the day came all at one forms, applications and trying to get things done so quickly. Now I’m done already with my first year and going on the second one. My advice to everyone in high school is to do things on time and before time because it flies.

I’m writing this blog from the road again. Now I’m in Cape Girade in Missouri it was a very long drive but we went to this restaurant called Lamberts and the concept is really cool they have a bread thrower he passes around screaming hot rolls and if you want one you just raise your hand or just scream hot roll and he will just throw it at you. I was cool to see old people trying to catch the hot rolls is pretty funny. The food was good too it’s just southern food with a lot of fried things. They also serve you your drink in this humongous cup that is around twenty ounces. The amount of food that you get is really big amount for two and you get two sides and they have people just walking around with different sides that you don’t have to pay extra for. It was great!!! But now I have to go to sleep big tournament tomorrow.
well I don’t know about you but I am so ready for classes to be over and go finally to the summer yet at the same time here I am picking my summer classes o well what can you do? You have to get things done and the sooner you get things done the better. Don’t leave for tomorrow what you can do today so hopefully I can finish all my general education classes and finally go to my major. It’s going to be a hard transition with the volleyball and the fraternity and the load of work that the core classes will bring. Hopefully I can manage the volleyball and the work load so I can have some relax time so I can come around the fraternity more often. Because the reason why I could not rush was because I had pre season, but they say that the pre season is not going to be as hard this year because of school schedules. Hopefully all of this will just add up and make a great semester of fun and some serious times also for studying.
So on Wednesday I finally went to the second part of my fraternity. I didn’t know what to expect but it was fun it really was an experience. It made me realize what I was involved with and what I was becoming and the reason why I am Greek and especially the reason why I am in this fraternity. For the new guys we have to get signatures and info from the rest of the other brothers. Well there is a part where you have to say what is your favorite thing about the fraternity and from now own I effetely have to say that the best thing is rituals and brotherhood. I didn’t think it was going to change my mind towards the frat but it really did it was amazing experience.
