First post of the New Year! Welcome to 2012. May you be just as good or better than 2011.

Anyways, I can't believe how much I missed the NBA. Didn't realize it until it recently came back, but it was a huge chunk of my life that just disappeared. Winter break is nearly over, and school starts in a week. And you know what, I'm fine with that. Too much break just... ruins break. It's time to go back to school so that I can get that "I want a vacation" mindset back. Oh yeah, and studying makes break time about 100 times better. Seriously, taking a break after a good day of studying is so gratifying. It really beats doing nothing all day.

Probably the one thing I'll miss when I go back to school will be the T.V. It's good to just flip channels and watch whatever interests you. In my case, it would be the nightly self-torture of Food Channel just because nothing else on piques my interest quite as much as good looking food (and supposedly good tasting). I watched a ton of Leverage (unhealthy addiction to the show I think.....), saw the Star Wars saga (on different days, can't sit through 6 of those movies in one sitting), and a bunch of other stuff that I would list but it would be a pointlessly long list.

One good thing about going back to school is the apartment gym. I finally have no excuse for not getting on a treadmill 3-5 times a week. That will be good for me. All I've been doing is an exercise bike like... twice a week at best. Home just makes me too lazy. And I get to cook again. Home cooking is good and all, but I realized that I like the freedom of making whatever I want, probably liking it, and enjoying it after. It's better than having someone else make your meal. At least when you make your own meal you have control over what's made. All you have to do is ignore how tedious prep is sometimes and it's all good.

Oh, and maybe these will get more constant again at school? Who knows? Stay tuned!
