School's not Out

Well, I'm back. What does that mean? Well, I'll tell you:

1) Being back at school means that there is, literally, hundreds of dollars worth of books that I am not going to buy at the bookstore. They even come in a convenient "list" format, for handiness and what have you.

2) "Wow, thats a short skirt!" Its still pretty summery outdoors, which is good, because that means people still wear summer clothes. No ugly sweatpants for at least another month! Until then, many of the ladies will be dressed like their truly skanky selves. This of course adds to my enjoyment while my roommate is watching some horribleness on the television and I am left without some other form of entertainment.

3) I have an "apartment" on campus. In most schools this would be called a "suite," or something. Four individual rooms with a shared common area and (most important) refrigerator. The great thing about refrigerators is that they keep things cold. Beer likes to be cold. I like beer that is cold. Me and the refrigerator are now buddies. See how easy it is to make friends, kids?

4) I have a job. Thanks to my insistence on returning to my horrifying on-campus job this year, I was afforded a wonderfulness that is a mandatory raise. You see, they have to give it to me, no matter what! Even if they don't want to! I love that. Also, since I am making more money, that means I can spend more of it on cool stuff, like beer for the aforementioned refrigerator, who shall henceforth be known as "Gerald." (He's soo good to me...)

5) I have classes to go to. This one really blows more than anything, but it leaves me with so many options. You see, now, everyday, I get to wake up and decide whether to get out of bed, or roll over, hit snooze and have that dream about the Olsen twins all over again. Usually when I hit the snooze button it is in some way related to my relationship with Gerald, but that is a story for another update. The important matter is that I have places to go and things to whine incessantly about on the internet, so congratulations...

CollegeBlows.com is BACK from its summer semi-hiatus, and will be returning officially to daily updates (monday through fridays, as weekends are Brian's time and will be used in such ways as will make Brian "unavailable" for updates on a regular basis). If I could see you, I'd toss a wink or two in there.

Click on those extra-good links, and why not send me EMAIL with fun stories about your summer vacations, and/or back-to-schoolness and if I deem it worthy, I'll use it on the site (with proper credit given).

Update: Uh, also, regular daily updates should begin thursday, with a possibility of wednesday.
