Finals Score, and Christmas

Well I've got 3 or 4 finals back, and the score is fairly accurate. Right now its Matt 2, Finals 1. Math is the only one I haven't gotten back so I figure Matt 2, Finals 2. A score I'm very happy with. On another note, its Christmas time. I like it. I really enjoy getting things for people. Its alot of fun. And I don't have school for a month, not much better than that. Except, maybe the fact that I GOT COTTON BOWL tickets. They are in the endzone and I probably wont be able to see a thing the entire game but I don't care. I'm going to be in the Cotton Bowl when A&M gets its 8th win of the season. I predict A&M 31, Tenn 14. Thats what I'm thinking. Well I guess thats about all for now. Have a great holiday season and remember that the only reason we give gifts is because God gave us the gift of His son on this day. The greatest gift ever, salvation. So get and give gifts but remember Him who died for us all. PEACE!!!!

Finals 1.8, Matt 1.2

Thats the score right now. Your probably think how can that be, but I divided up the score for my math final. I'd say it wins 3/4. I knew some of the stuff, but no that much. I knew some of my answers were wrong and I still had about half an hour to finish up and check everything but I was just tired of math and didn't really think I could get any better so I just turned it in and left. I was like the second person done, which you would think would be a good sign, but its really not for me. I'm now ready for the last one. Probably my hardest because I don't have anything to study, and everyone who has taken it before gets like a 50. Not good. Hopefully I can just pass, thats all I want to do, pass. Well I'm out. Have a blessed day. PEACE!!!

Finals 1, Matt 1

I had two finals yesterday. I took the Physics one and destroyed it. I figure I won that fight with a second-round KO, Atmospheric Chemistry was a different story. Maybe I was weakened from the earlier bout but I don't really think so. That final took me out about a minute into the first round. I studied, prepared myself mentally and physically, slept well, ate well, but it was all to no avail. I just don't like finals. Well, on a good note I saw Ocean's 12 last night. It was an interesting, funny, and all around good movie. I went to the movie to be entertained and it happened. I was a little confused at some parts didn't really know what was going on but it all makes sense in the end. Also went to the BYX Pledge party, the annual party the pledges throw after they become active. It was alot of fun, it was outside so it was kinda cold. The cops also came, apparently the people across the street didn't like the music. He was really cool and we didn't get into any trouble. I guess it helped that there was no drinking, although you wouldn't know it because of the crazy things BYXs guys tend to do (not bad crazy, just funny crazy). I guess I will study for my final two finals. Hopefully the end score will be Matt 3 , Finals 1, keyword: hopefully. PEACE!

Let The Finals Begin

Well, tomorrow is the long-awaited, but also dreaded day that signals the start of finals. Its good that this time has come because it means school is almost out, but, of course, its bad because finals suck. I'm also in a pickle about what I want to take new semister. I'm suppose to take a computer science(CPSC), but the C+ class is at 8am. Thats really early, plus I'm registered for 17 hours right now and let me just tell you that that isn't happening. No way can I take that many hours with the crazy classes I have to take. But you see, I can't just drop the CPSC but I have a class in which it is required next fall. I dunno if I summer just suck it up and take it or if I should just take it in the summer. I really don't like summer school but I could probably do that. I just dunno. Let me a comment and help me decide. By the way, thanks Deige for leaving me a note. That was nice of you, you keep reading and I'll keep writing. Well I guess thats about it. Have a blessed day and do your best in everything you do, and, to quote Kyle Lake, " love God, embrace beauty, and live life to the fulliest." PEACE!

Randomness

I decided I would do this instead of studying for a little bit. Dead day tomorrow and thursday so I should be good on the studying. Have to take a stupid Physics test on Friday that you have to pass to pass the course. I don't think I've actually passed a final at A&M yet. That could be a problem. Oh by the way, if your reading this, which you are, leave me a comment so I can see if anyone actually reads this besides Erin. Atmospheric Chemistry final is on friday too, thats not good but oh well. I'm excited about doing nothing for a little bit during the break, probably going to go to Colorado, or at least the mountains, sometime and just have some chill time. I guess thats all I have right now. I will probably try to find something else to do instead of study. Peace!

Trying Out the BlogThis!

Lets see how this thing works

A Couple Things

Hows it goin? You have a good week? Great. So I have a couple of things on my mind, nothing special just a few things:
1. Football:
A&M is going to the Cotton Bowl, and that is sweet. I'm on a wait list for tickets so hopefully that works out, if not, I might be camping out the next couple of days for the student pull on thursday. This brings me to my first "thought": the BCS. I find it odd that everyone dislikes this system, I know a playoff system might be better but it would never work, its just to many games. The BCS is here to stay. I think so b/c each school gets $14 million out of the deal. Some of that money goes to the conference, therefore they will never vote down the BCS, some of that money goes to the school, therefore they will never vote down the BCS. Coaches would probably try and get rid of it, but maybe not b/c of the bonuses that come with getting a BCS bid. The only people that have problems with it are the sportscasters and media, which I don't understand b/c w/o the BCS what would they actually talk about? They wouldn't have anything to say. So all in all, why doesn't everyone just shut up and play football.

2. Final Four:
No, not basketball. My final four finals of the semister. Finals are stupid but neccesary. Way to much information stuffed onto one test in two hours. Thats all I have to say about that.

3. BYX Formal:
Great. It was an amazing time at a really cool place. Top of the Bank of America building ( big, green one at night) in Dallas. 69th Floor, talk about crazy elevator ride. I was kinda freaked out by the speed at which this thing went. It was unreal.

Guess thats all. I'm going to try and pictures on here but I dunno just how well that will work. Everyone have a safe week. Trust God in all you do, and know that you are never alone. PEACE!!!
