Drooling while Standing

There are mornings when I drag myself out of bed at 0600 and dread the upcoming struggle to stay awake during my morning classes. Today was such a day. My electrical engineering professor is a Marine officer. So about 45 mins into class, he has us all stand up and do PT (physical training) to wake us up. Today's flavor was four-count lunges. Nothing like some morning lunges to get the blood pumping. Sadly, this kept me awake for another 30 mins but then the war with sleep was engaged once again. I stand up as a defense to try and stay awake but often this just leads to embarrassing stumbling as i doze while standing (it is possible).

I got Photography for Dummies today at the library. My new project for the next month or so. So bare with me as I share my attempts to learn photography.

I went up for a promotion here. Students are promoted into positions of authority around the campus (the yard), for their senior year. I applied to be on the honor board staff. My dad has always tried to impart upon me how important a person's honor is. I really want to be involved with teaching the freshmen here about how important and passionate this is. I won't find out for a couple weeks whether I get it.

Ok, time to do some french homework. My favorite part of the day - catching up with my dear friend Sade and planning an ice skating date for Saturday.
