Springbreakitis

It's the week before Spring Break and I have an ACTlab project due Thursday and a midterm in the class whose official title I believe is Latin American Literature after Post Modernism. The ACTlab project isn't done, but it shouldn't be to difficult to finish up. As for the midterm......let's just say I'm pretty much in the spring break zone already. I've been waiting for this week since the day I realized what my semester was going to be like. Hopefully it lives up to be being a relaxing and rejuvenating week, because that's what I need.

I'm just going to be hanging around Austin the entire break so hopefully that'll allow me to get some things I've been putting off out of the way. One being finalizing my resume and starting to get it out there and on peoples desks. I have a couple leads that I'm really excited about but we're just going to have to wait and see how things go. I'm probably starting this mass resume mailing thing a little later than I should have but it's a very intimidating thought. Sending out a quick shallow synopsis of who you are and having people decide whether they like you or not. I don't want to think that I'm not liked.

I ordered my UT class ring on Friday. It comes in either on my birthday or the day after so pretty much great timing. It's been a long time coming and although it was a lot of money I think it's worth it. The day I decided that I wouldn't get a high school graduation ring I made it a point to get a college one. There's just a lot more importance and meaning in a college ring. How many people care about whether or not a person is an alumni of their old high school? Sure it's a neat thing, but that's it.

Got into a bicycle wreck with one of my roommates the other night while we were out for a 4 hour joy ride. It had been a really fun evening packed with singing, talking, eating, laughing. I guess it had to have it's down side. Basically he lost control and swerved in front of me and then I T-boned him. My bike was ok, his wasn't. His body was was ok, mine wasn't. My left quadricep landed right on his rear gear shift and bent it inwards. Which proceeded to bend the entire tire. So basically it's no usable. My left leg is barely usable as well. I feel like I have a giant bruise on my leg and I can barely put weight on it, but there's no bruising. I feel like it's gotten a little better so I'm just going to continue hoping for the best.

Real quick note. I love serving on the AVLC team. It's probably one of the best things that has happened to me throughout college. I am thankful and blessed to have everyone in AVLC in my life.
