Hey Skyhawks,
So I'd like to give my sincerest apologies for not keeping up with my blogging responsibilities. I've never been a advocate of excuses, and so I'll take the fault here.
But, I was sick for the past two months. The last month of school I spent laying in bed. I'm not the type of guy that is absent; I'm usually that perfect attendance kid that sits in the front row of class. But those last few weeks were brutal.
Worst part about it was the fact that I was sick during break. The last week of break I actually started to feel better and was able to get out of the house and experience my beautiful Southern California weather. I have some photos of break, and I took some video footage of San Diego as I was driving. I'll have to put that video together and post it up for my next blog.
But I'm back, I've been at school for a week now. And of course, I'm starting to get sick again. I'm not deathly like before, but I have a slight cold. I think it's the change of weather. I was fine until I went back home for Thanksgiving Break for a few days, experienced that lovely warm 75 degree weather, and then flew back to Massachusetts and hit below 30. The constant flying and change of weather hasn't been kind to me. But, I'm at Stonehill for the rest of the semester- so hopefully I can adjust and put this behind me.
Finals Week was hectic. I only had one in-class Final Test, but I was blessed with three 15-page Final Papers. Of course, like most college students... we procrastinate. So I ended up writing 45 pages, in two days. I did not sleep, and I actually drove to a professors house to drop off my final paper. 45 pages in two days... that is phenomenal. Let me pat myself on the back for that one. But of course, procrastination has it's downsides. I didn't do as well as I had hoped this past semester. I ended up with a 3.25GPA;
A-
B+
B

Not too horrible, but with my track record, I should have done better. I'll make sure to show that this semester- starting with not procrastinating. It's only the 2nd week so I don't have too much to pride myself with- but I'm actually ahead a few days in each of my classes. Let's see if I can keep it up :)
Anyways, like I said I'll be making a Video Blog next week. Let's just agree here, to move my Official Blog Days to Tuesdays now. It's just a little easier for me to work on them on Mondays, rather than on Sunday. Sunday's are usually pretty hectic. So expect a Blog every Tuesday, and I'll make sure to put up Videos on those days. And then on Fridays, I'll put up a written blog after my last class just to tell you how my week went and all that good stuff.
Oh I went to Disneyland with Mom over break, it's only a 30 minute drive up the 5... Umm, that's Interstate-5 Freeway. In California we call Freeways "The (number)"- umm, yea. That's how we do it. Haha. Here's a Pic of ME!
And a preview of the car ride around San Diego. I'll be showing you most of North County, and then I'll drive down the coast on Highway 101, take you into the City, and end with a football game in Qualcomm. Yes I'm aware that the Jets beat my Chargers, and I'm very emotional and hurt about it. So let's not bring it up. Haha.
MARCO'S BACK!
