last one i guess

well i totally meant to blog before midnight so i could squeeze two more in, but i kinda forgot so here i sit writing my last blog. thank god. i freaking hate these things theyre such a burden on my day. i just hope i get a B on these things so that they dont hurt my grade too badly

done

i am officially over finals. 5 hours of sleep in the last 3 days is not enough. but if i did not stay awake all that time i definitely would not have done as well as i needed to do on my finals. its looking like another all nighter tonight too. im just ready to be done friday and relax somewhere and not think about anything.

finals

All this studying better freaking pay off. i have never studied this much in my entire academic career. thank god my final is at noon tomorrow because lord knows how late ill be up tonight studying. but hey at least its my last engineering final of the semester. thats always a plus

41

well one final down for to go. That final freaking blew though! it literally took me the whole two and a half hours and i still did not finish it. now i only have one engineering final left and the rest should be easy. i can finally see the finish line now!and i might actually have time to play golf this week thats always a bonus

40

So i finally did my journal and turned it in. I am never really too sure what to reflect on when we turn things in but i tried to do a pretty good bit of looking back and reflecting. I am really bad at reflecting but i guess now that thats done i have to get back to thermodynamics and finish studying for my test tomorrow. I am not excited about this final. i really need to do well on it to do well in the class and i am not even really sure that i am studying the right thing.

39

Well I was supposed to study today. Unsuccessful. I guess I have done so much school work this semester that now that it really counts I literally have no motivation to study whatsoever. Tomorrow is going to be a long day now. Oh well. All I have to do is get though my engineering finals and I'm basically Home free. The rest of my finals should be pretty easy to study for

lazy

today was another lazy day thank god. played a little golf went to the pool and had a few beers. The weather was not exactly beautiful but i will take it as long as i am not in class for the day. All i need to do is get through finals and get to work this summer because i am broke as a joke. it will be nice to have more incoming monetary flow than outgoing for a little while

37

today was SO relaxing. i truly needed it. its nice to have a day off of school with no homework at all. i literally just sat outside all day on a sleeping bag. i guess i need to study for finals soon... but i doubt ill do that until at least saturday. its looking like tomorrow is going to be the exact same as today was for me and i could not be more excited about it

last day

Well i finally made. the last real day of class! i can not believe its finally here. while the last month of the semester did seem like an eternity, looking back now this semester really did fly by! i can not believe im already about to be a junior in college. it seems like just yesterday i was moving out of my house and getting enrolled in classes here. you do not realize how fast time is going until it is gone

library

I am freaking sick of being in the library. I have been here from 5 til 2 in the morning every day since sunday and it does not look like that is going to change tonight. The project i have been working on is only worth 10% of my grade and i better get a freaking A. our group report is already 20 pages with a few pages left to go. This is miserable to say the least.

34

So it's official. I will not be getting all of my blogs. All I can hope at this point is that she gives me a decent grade for the ones I have. I simply don't remember to blog every day. I have way harder school work that weighs on my mind moreso than a freaking blog. I don't even have anything to blog about so this thing is a just a waste of my time for a grade. Ok I'm done venting now.

33

So I just got out of our founders day. Most painful 6 hours of my life. It was freaking miserable. Our alumni are possibly the most boring people ever. Oh well at least it's Saturday and I have plenty of daylight to spare. There's always a bright side I suppose. I think I might go to the creek for a while to relax or go play some golf who knows. Either way it'll be a great time.

32

So i am finally over school. i have a test tomorrow and i cannot even bring myself to study hard for it. I just need the dead days to be here so i can rest and take my mind off of class until finals so i can do well on them. I just honestly need a break from school. I also need to get to work this summer so i can make some money because i am super broke right now.

31

We got alot done as a group today despite me missing class. We had a meeting with ms. Pavletic and ms. Dawson and they were more than helpful with advice about our wiki entry. I still don't really get the point of these wiki things. But at least it seems like we're doing them right and getting the ideas down that they want us to. Thank god. Because I need a good grade on this thing

procrastination

I very well may be the worst procrastinator in the world. Its awful. Its like a bad habit i cannot break. every time i do it i say next time i will finish my work earlier and start earlier, and every time something is due or i have a test i find myself up late at night the night before still not doing my work. i think i need professional help

29

I am SO ready for summer. I am sick of school work im sick of being stressed im tired of having headaches. I just want to get through finals and get to work this summer. I could really use a few months off of school. I always feel stressed at the end of the semester. But this one is probably the worst one yet!

28

So I had an epic battle with rodeo yesterday. It won of course but I think I put up a good fight. Eric church sounded good but he has always been a crappy performer. I think he just gets too high to perform so he just sings. But overall this was a great weekend between rodeo and golf I really cannot complain.

27

Rodeo is tomorrow. I could not be more excited. Its basically a whole day of great wholesome activities with an Eric Church concert at the end.It also goes to support a great cause... not too sure on what said cause is, but im sure its fantastic considering this is one of the highest revenue philanthropy events in auburn every year

26

So i think i figured out why I hate blogging so much. I am an extrovert, everything I feel i have no problem saying out loud, therefore I think I hate typing my feeling because I cannot ever think of anything because when I have something on my chest I generally let it out as soon as I feel it. Leaving me nothing to say on here

25

Well today was a long day until about 3. then i went and played golf. Great stress reliever. I love to go walk nine holes when im feeling stressed out about school. it completely clears my mind.

state troopers

So i was speeding today and a trooper came out of nowhere and popped me with a wonderful ticket. When i asked him where he was sitting he told me he was going the opposite way on the interstate when his radar picked me up. I did not even know they could radar from that way. SUCKS

23

Well i forgot to blog yet again. Thank god she gave us an extension but I have no idea how im going to get 30 more of these. I just keep forgetting to do them like every other day. I think i need to set an alarm on my phone or something to blog everyday.

homework

I AM FREAKING SICK OF HOMEWORK. I just want one week off of homework. I dont mind going to class, I dont mind taking tests, but i am sick and tired of having homework due every single day of every week. homework that nobody in the class knows how to do so we all have to do it together. it is retarded.

21

So I had a great weekend. Went to a great band party Friday and had a crawfish boil yesterday. Overall I'd say it was a good weekend. Now I'm trying to finish my paper up but I'm having serious trouble with my intro paragraph. It's just surprisingly difficult to think of an attention getter for this paper.

20

So it is FINALLY the weekend and i could not be happier. I have had the longest past two weeks of my life and it is starting toi look like things are finally going to calm down to normal again. Its funny i used to complain about normal, now i thank God that thinks are back to the way they were. I guess thats what college teaches us. Appreciate the small things so when the big things come you can be ready.

Good

So today has been a truly great day. I ha a great day of class plus I'm bowling tonight. It would not have gone better. I love bowling. It is a great stress reliever. There is not better feeling than when you have had a long day of class and you can end it by bowling fairly well.

school

School very well may kill me this semester. I used to always be tired because I am a procrastinator, but lately I have been tired all the time because the work never stops. If it isnt one class then sure enough its another. I swear all this work better be worth it in the end. The worst part is I dont even know how my grades are. Three of my classes have failing class averages so the teachers are going to have to put some sort of scale on them... or so I hope.

17

so its nearing one month left to blog. It does not look good for me. I do not think i am going to be able to get fifty now. It isn't because i have been procrastinating either. I simply do not think to blog in my free time. I literally blog every time I think about it. But obviously I have only thought about it seventeen times this semester. I guess I'm just going to try to remember to blog once a day for the rest of the year and hope I hit quota.

16 - tests

So i have 4 tests and a paper due over the next 5 days. I don't understand how this always happens. its like teachers plan it out together just so we don'g get a chance to study enough for any of our classes. I absolutely despise the library and I will be there for at least the next twelve hours. This sucks.

Lay person

So I just did my lay person interview and I cannot stress how unimportant it seems. Maybe i will see it differently when i actually write my paper, but for right now the lay person's opinion seems very insignificant to my overall paper.

Homework - 14

So I get back to Sarasota FL from Miami today and check my email, turns out I had an econ homework due 48 hours ago. What kind of teacher assigns homework due online the Wednesday of spring break? That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard of in my life. But whats done is done i guess. Good thing all my other homework grades are 100's so that one zero won't kill me.

Miami

I'm at the university of Miami. It's crazy here. It's like I left auburn and entered a new world. The dress the lingo the way people walk and talk. It's all different. It's crazy.

Sarasota - 12

So I have been in Sarasota Florida for about 3 days now with some of my fraternity brothers. Never in my life have I been to a place in which everybody in the city is very well off. I have been to more million dollar houses this week than I can count just to visit my pledge brothers friends from high school. I guess growing up in Alabama, I never realized how much wealth was in other states. Seeing as Alabama is one of the poorest states in the nation I do believe I am going to get out of there and work somewhere with higher wages and a higher cost of living when I get out of school.

11

So toda we went out on the boat and I am BURNT I look like a freaking lobster. This is one of my least favorite things in the world. The worst part about being sun burnt is that there is nothing you can do to stop the pain. You don't even realize you can move certain parts of your body until they are sunburnt. Then you can hardly stand to move.

Spring break

Well it's finally feeling like spring break. Beaches drinking beachside bars the works. It's amazing. I am in south Florida this week and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else it's beautiful down here and the weather has been perfect. Trips like this always make me really appreciate my parents and all that they do for me. Without them none of this would be possible.

9 - Flounder

Ok so my nickname in my fraternity is flounder, it was given to me when I was a new member and sticks with me today. Well I'm at a resort in Orlando with my pledge brother jake. Jakes dad booked our hotel room and as a recipient of a key I told the front desk my name and they kept saying My name wasn't on the list. Then the lady asked if I happened to To go by flounder because that's who the room was booked under. In short one of my best friends dad only knows me as flounder. This nickname will stick with me forever.

the ocho

These blogs really suck. They are not that time consuming, but how often do i ever stop what I'm doing and think "have i blogged today?" Its ridiculous. I hardly have time for fun right now much less to sit down and write fifty words of my thoughts every day.

Seventh

Welp I finally found who I'm going to interview. He's the plant manager for a paper mill in Brewton AL. The only problem is he won't be in his office again until next week sometime do I am going to have t email interview at spring break which will be very inconvenient but he's been working in the field for thirty years so hopefully it will be worth the trouble!

siiiiiiix

Well today sucked. i probably failed my thermo test, i have so much homework due this week it isnt even funny and im just blantantly tired today. Some days i swear it seems like nothing can go my way. Oh well theres always tomorrow i guess maybe itll be better...

cinco

Well I finished my midterm so I think Ill just write a short blog about it since im in here. I donm't really get the point of this midterm. No clue what the grading criteria is but I just hope I pass. I think my manifesto will turn out okay other than a few grammatical errors. I am not very good at reflection but i think i did enough of it to make a good grade on my paper. I will post something more interesting tomorrow i think

Numero 4

Today has been a good day so far, which is odd because I have the same schedule as I do on Tuesdays. Last Tuesday absolutely sucked. It was like one bad thing happened after another. Then I realized today that I live my life in streaks. I will have a few weeks that go by smoothly then I will have a week or two where it seems like nothing will go my way. This makes me wonder, does everybody have streaks of bad with streaks of good? I never have a bad thing and a good thing happen to me all in one day. Its either a bad day or a good day there is no grey its all black and white for me.

3

Well the weather is pretty crappy today. Bad weather always makes me feel extra lazy. Not good for school work. I just want to sit in my chair and watch tv all day when it rains. Rainy days are also very reflective days. I always find myself looking back at my life past and present and asking myself, "Am I happy with where I am right now?" The answer is yes. I go to the best university have the best friends and I could not ask for more. Regardless of the mistakes and mishaps I have had in my life I feel like each and every turn in my life has led me to exactly where I am right now. If i had or had not done some of the things I have done, I could be at a completely different place in my life so today I am thankful for everything that I have and Haven't done that has led me here.

Post 2

Well today marks the end of a very long week. I think this weekend I'm just going to relax and play some golf. Golf is a great stress reliever. There is no better feeling after a long week of school than to just go play some golf. It is so relaxing even though I personally am not very good but I still enjoy getting out there and having some fun.

Number One

Well, this is my first blog... ever. It certainly will not be my last seeing as I have to post fifty of these before the end of this semester. I guess this one will just be a little about myself. My name is Brett Ardizone, I am from Mobile, and I am a sophomore majoring in Chemical Engineering at Auburn. I'm really not too sure what else to say in this one, but there is a lot more to come. I'm sure I'll have to get creative over the next few weeks since we have to write so many of these.
