Just Another 18 hour day

Wow, who knew that I would be so busy...
All through high school I thought, "I can't wait to get to college and then I will have all of this free time to hang out and do whatever I want..."
Then I got to college and got unbelievably busy - I tried to be involved in every possible group/organization/friendship possible. That's when I thought, "I can't wait to graduate, because then I will get a 9-5 and then have the rest of my time doing whatever I want...


Welcome to the REAL WORLD!

I got up at 5:45 this morning because it was a Presidential Scholarship Interview Day for ACU, so I had to be at work early. It is now just after midnight, and I have just arrived at my hotel here in Houston, ready to be David Pittman Collegiate Recruiter Extraordinare, at a Youth Rally this weekend. This after a very full day of interviews and meeting with VIP students and their families on campus.

Its no wonder with a schedule like this that I have not been able to get back to my blog regularly. As a result of this you can all be excited to know that I have now, after much prodding and pushing going to have Amanda write a guest blog for me this week. I'm sure that this will create all sorts of excitment.

Since it has been another month since I wrote, of course much has happened. Below is a list of some of the most interesting things...

Week long Recruiting Trip to Central Texas - I love coming back to the office and having 18 Billion emails and phone calls to return

Valentines Day - I got the best valentine stuff ever from Amanda

Sing Song - If you haven't heard the UNBELIEVABLE STORY FROM THIS YEAR'S SHOW then let me know I will definitely blog about it.

Elliott got a Ridiculous job offer in Austin (Law school looks to be on hold for a little while)

Played another wonderful season of intramural basketball (is there a statute of limitations for seasons to play?)

Now I am at Soul Link. This can't be a superlong blog because I am sitting up here in the hotel room as Aaron (other Admissions Counselor here with me) tries to sleep. I really should go to bed soon as well because I have to get up for another 18 hour day tommorrow. Who knew being a grown up would be so hard? Or tiring?
Does anyone remember what it was like to stay up in the dorm until 3 or 4 and then pop right up for you 8am class?
Can anyone still really truly enjoy being awake at 2am, just because you "dont really have anything to do tommorrow?"
How about eating whaver you want at whatver time of the night (or day) and still being able to sleep or feel normal.
- I say this because the only reason I am awake right now is because of that stupid vanilla frappuchino (how do you spell that anyway?) that I drank during hour 6 of our 7 bdrive so that I could arrive safely.
What are the other things that don't come as naturally anymore
Why can't grown up life be more like it is on MTV's Real World? Where people just give you money to play around all day and then "work" for 6 hours one day and then talk about how hard of a worker you are.

Speaking of reality TV, I have now officially thrown my support behind Nashville Sarah. - I can't believe it, she started out being one of the most annoying choices but has grown on me (Guys, if you are confused, then I am talking about college football).

Mowana is just a crazy person.

Its officially 1:00AM. I'm starting to ramble, so I'm off to bed. Ya'll (or you) have a good evening and I plan to write more than just once a month from now on!!!

- Maybe the good doctor could pick neither...
