NO MORE IEA EVER
Its one of those moments (lol), i just realized I don't have to worry about trusses, moments, rigid bodies, centroids, frames, or anything like that ever again! Its a good feeling because IEA is the most pointless class at RPI for all CSE and BME majors to take. Am i ever going to take a moment about a hard drive? No. Am i going to have to find the support reactions of a CPU joint, nope not at all. Trusses + computers don't go in the same sentence. yay! NO MORE IEA!
3 more finals to go. i realized i need a 61 on my cs final to get an A. 88 on my physics Final for an A. and a 90 + on my calc guarantees an A! yay! good stuff.

No one knows anything
I played ping pong today, and the fact that no one knows whats running through my mind is good. I'm being a "rock" about myself, nothing i know about me is escaping me ever, or until i find that new comfort level with others.
As i'm sitting here in my lounge spot thinking about things i felt like blogging. so i did. and 5-10 years down the road this blog will be filled with very random things, and as i look back it will be really funny at the experiences i feel. this is my way of seeing how my senior year of highschool/college experiences have affected me in my life.
Some sports news, Celtics are the NBA's best team, Sox won the WS and now after Johan Santana, and the Pats are still undefeated. yay for boston/New England Sports. 3 championships in 4 major sports would be nice. Who knows about the Bruins?
4 Finals in 3 days starting wednesday! i should be fine until that. yay!

Being the center = bad
My second post of the day, ugh i hate this. Why did i choose to be the center of everything because its not fun. I have decided to officially be a guy on the side looking at things happening in the center, its a big mess to be in the center, and only tools/losers would aspire to be at that spot and not be happy with what you have which is the peace and quiet. I've have gotten to a point where i'm Right now sitting in my spot in the lounge with no real person to talk to about the way i feel.
If you look at friendship like a ladder and the higher up you are on a ladder the better friends you are with that person. i feel like i have dropped a lot on many of my "inner" circle friend's ladders, while they are all still up there in my friendship ladder its not the same anymore. My actions have caused this downfall, and i know its mainly my fault, but that was me trying be something i wasn't. I was experimenting on life in the center, but as i said that dosn't always work out. Now i'm back to having my normal life that I want to have which is what i had in high school. Which is have that tight inner circle of friends, and then everyone else. Without the legit inner circle and having just everyone else means you have no one to talk to about things that are bogging you down which me naturally are many things.
So now i gotta change the way i act, and such to reaccommodate myself into the college picture. Because at the moment i'm that one kid who knows everything about everyone which is nothing to be proud of. I don't want to be the "BARH INQUIRER". I want to be one of those ppl who look at the inquirer and laugh at it. Its gonna be a long and hard process to completely switch roles but i beleive i can do it. This is where i stand and i'm sticking to it. First semester of college = semester of experiments, from now onwards i'm the person that i usually am, still be that guy that talks to everyone but i'm not going to go out of my way to initiate any convo.

Ugh... I dunno what i'm thinking.
Ever had those feelings where you are just doing something but you have no idea why? Thats me right now. My friends have noticed me acting differently, and so have I. I seem to be "burning" ppl with random things and using cheapshots at anything that i can find. Why is this something that i have to go through.
Nowadays, in college, its hard to trust people and have someone to talk to about way i'm feeling considering that these ppl have only known you for 14 weeks/1 semester. Its really pathetic. My friends and I get along, we can talk about things but its hard to at times because they are very busy individuals as well. I'm also trying to keep these problems to myself as i don't want others to think of me as complaining. That is why i'm using this blog to vent my frustrations.
Well hopefully i can figure this out on my own, and this winter break will help me. Because i know being home for thanksgiving helped me a lot. I hope i can get settled down a bit more and i should be fine for my finals week.

New TV Series This Spring Check It Out
Hello all i'm here to tell you about a new TV series, called The Dorm: BARH special. I know there is one for cary hall but BARH's show is soo much better.
Basically, College life = lots and lots of drama. Every single person is trying to enter the college scene with a splash and having their own mysterious background, watch and learn how everyone interacts. some of these interactions are positive, such as ppl meeting new ppl and making new friends but most of these are negative with stories of rejection, miscommunication, and even the c-word.
If i could write a book about everything that's gone on and that would be a best seller. because ppl don't realize when you put a bunch of 17-18-19 year olds in the same building trying to acheive a common goal of education, but in the process they are trying have fun with their social lives, a lot of drama will happen.
Drama - i just guess i have to get used to it because right now, thats the entertainment here at RPI.
Major stories to look out for:
~REJECTION
~COMMITTMENT ISSUES
~EXTRINSIC MOTIVATION
~BREAKING OF TRUST
~GOSSIP/RUMORS
~etc.
We cover everything that you would imagine here at BARH, so i guess we are a "BAD ASS RES HALL" because of all the drama that we got.
Remember to stay tuned.
