I'm Psyched

today could have been a total bust. Rolling out of bed tired this morning I was cursing my late night game (we lost by the way). I was not happy about getting out of my warm bed and dragging my ass to class. I was especially unhappy because I had to give a presentation today. When I walked out to my Jeep, I found a reason to skip class. I had a nail sticking out of my tire. It was between the tread lugs, and had evidently been there for a while. The nail was worn down to the level of the tread by the pavement. I could have easily used this excuse to skip my morning class, but I would have let my fellow presenter down (the presentation was on ethics; is that ironic?). I decide to drive on the nail and am glad I did. The presentation went well, I met a cool girl in my surveying lab, and I got to apply to the school newspaper. I'm really happy that I may get the chance to write for the school paper. I liked writing for the paper at Mat-Su, and this one is a much bigger deal.

Well, I should try and make it to the tire store before they close, I have a nail in my tire after all.
