With this streak of wonderful weather seemingly coming to an end, I wanted to reflect a little bit on the trends that I saw happening in the last week and a half.

First off, when it's nice out, college campuses are the best place ever. Having that many people out in one area or another can only do wonders for peoples' tolerances of one another. I wish that things were that simple all over the world, but obviously, they aren't, and probably never will be. Some groups of people just can't come together and enjoy what they have.

Second, girls tend to dress--well actually, they tend to un-dress. This can be said anywhere, but it is so blatant on a college campus that I can't avoid mentioning it. I'm not saying that I don't appreciate it, ladies, but sometimes I just don't need to see you in hooker boots and a skirt. Dress to impress, not to stand out as being the easiest girl in the world.

Do I want this weather to end? Hell no. I love being able to come home from class, crackin a beverage, and just stoopin til the sun goes down. But, sometimes too much of a good thing can be bad. I don't think I have been working nearly as hard as I should be working, and I know that I've gotten so fucking lazy with things. It's not that I don't have the desire, it's that I have no motivation really. This is my senior year, spring semester of college. I want to enjoy it, not be cooped up inside doing work all day.

That's where the senioritis kicks in. As much as I really hate that word, it truly is real. I just don't care much about school anymore. I love being here, in the middle of North Philly, don't get me wrong. But the idea of having to wake up and go to class all day long is just so far from appealing. I know I'm going to have to get a real job soon, too. But, right now, I just don't want to think about anything but the present.

I've had friends tell me to live in the moment before, and I've always though I did a good job of that. But, now, I realize I kinda sucked at it. So, for once in my life, I'm going to take advantage of every thing thrown my way. It sounds like a great idea, I just hope I can hold myself to it.
