22.... What?!

Currently listening to: Soil - Halo

I can't really believe I'm almost 22. It seems just a few months back I was thinking "Oh man... I'm 21?!" Times flies though and this summer went especially quickly.

Speaking of summer: Everyone I met at GM last year is already talking about our new offers for internships next summer, so we've decided to room together where possible and then we'll all hang out on the weekends. A few of us will be based in Warren (where we all were last summer) and a few will be in Milford, which is about 40 minutes from Warren. Luckily, friends working at Milford means we get to test drive cars... hehehe. They've upped our pay this year to $3,900 per month. O_O. Yeah...

We're also organizing a week long trip down to either northern New Mexico (where there are actually mountains... yes I know some people are amazed by that) or Colorado to go snowboarding. Obviously everyone's quite excited for that... Hopefully I'll be learning a few new tricks here at Mt. Ripley so I can try them out on so bigger and more fun jumps/rails out west. Regardless, it's going to be a blast to shred the hill all day with great friends and then just come back and have fun at the hotel or out on the town.

Things in Houghton are going pretty well. I've almost completely gotten over the dread of getting up at 7 every morning for my 8 o'clock class. My brain still doesn't quite function perfectly at that hour, but it's getting there.

The last few weeks have been a torrent of rain. I believe it has rained at least a tiny bit every single day for quite awhile now, with most days completely overcast. I love any kind of adverse weather though, so I'm actually enjoying it.

Anyways, I suppose it's time to get back to homework.
