28 More Days......


I decided to venture out of the house today, on my day off, to the place that should be the last place I go, School! I'm sitting here listening to music and enjoying the peace and quiet, and of course, internet :)

It is only 28 short days left until I leave for Washington D.C. Although I'm extremely excited about leaving Harrisonburg again for a semester, my FINAL semester for that matter, there are a few things left to deal with before heading up there to the Metropolitain.

The last week my friend Pat and I opened up a whole new can of amazing worms that may cause me to go broke in the next few weeks. We went to the fabulous New Market Rebels game last Tuesday. I have since went to 2 about to be 3 more Valley League baseball games. Shout out to you Pat, for reminding me of what I enjoy doing! Next summer I play to go to more Rebels games than I did this year. They are entertaining...

Anyway, nothing much going on other than the summer days going by faster and faster than they ought too. Two thumbs down to summer going fast! I suppose life does travel quickly, which is why we must be faster than that! I hope that the rest of you are enjoying what is left of the summer months and are about to embrace another beautiful fall season quickly approaching, which is MY favorite time of year! Cheers!

Nobody Told Me


Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's Nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs
Always something happening and nothing going on
There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot
They're starving back in China so finish what you got

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- strange days indeed

Everybody's runnin' and no one makes a move
Everyone's a winner and nothing left to lose
There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu
Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground
Everybody's crying and no one makes a sound
There's a place for us in the movies you just gotta lay around

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high
Everybody's flying and never touch the sky
There's a UFO over New York and I ain't too surprised

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed -- most peculiar, mama

-John Lennon (1940-1980)
