Who knows how many people actually read this thing, but I wanted to let everyone know that I did not forget about my faithful followers! This fall semester at Bates has been incredibly time consuming, which consequently leaves me with little time to write blogs. But, there is hope...
This semester is almost over (three more weeks, three more weeks, three more weeks...), and after December 11th, I will have so much free time that I will be forced to write frequent blog posts.
The 11th marks the due date of my senior thesis, leaving me with one paper and one final exam before the conclusion of the semester. At 4:30 on Friday, Decemeber 18th, I can safely assume that I will be 7/8ths (semesters) of the way through my college career.
Wow. Time flies.
On that note, time is flying so fast that I need to use as much of it as I can between now and the 11th to ensure that I will in fact reach the 7/8th mark (and hopefully 8/8 by May).
Stay tuned, because I will post frequently throughout the Holidays and will attempt to pick up the pace next semester and post more than just my weekly newspaper column.
I'll leave you with this quote that I find particularly striking:
"The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start to the top. " -O.J. Simpson
This is a quote that, while spoken by a horrible person, speaks volumes to what we do as collegiate student-athletes. My coaches posted this outside of our locker room, and it carries a lot of meaning as we attempt to reach our goals in both the short and long term.
Until next time...
