Though a few balloons and maybe a cake would be nice, I suppose I'll get this blog kicked-off without the fanfare of trumpets and white doves.

I hope this blog succeeds in proving us a means to stay in touch better, especially since last year classified as an epic failure in the staying-in-touch category. Daniel was off making sure that his new friends all had suitable amounts of estrogen, Alex got involved in a romantic relationship with his computer (I think it's more of an "it's complicated" relationship now, since he vows to put aside WoW in favor of schoolwork), Stephanie was off doing--wait, I don't know or want to know what she was off doing-- and I devoted my time to giving myself concussions, insurance headaches, and almost a date with death.

I'm exited to see what this year brings! The rest of my lovely co-authors have begun school and are in the process of settling in and all that fun. It definitely seems like only yesterday that we were entering our first year of college, unsure of what to expect. How the times fly by, though I shrudder when realizing that this also means that midterms/finals will hit me before I know it. In the meantime, I'm just LOVING my time at work, being extra productive, and never never never going on Facebook, blogger, or any other of those social (aka time-wasting and work-hindering) websites. hear that future-employers who might stalk me and find this blog? that's right! I am an enthusiastic, productive, hard-working employee! ahem.

In other news, my brother's finally coming home today, bringing with him a Wii that he got for his birthday from friends. I can't wait until my friends get rich. Daniel and Stephanie, that means no to med-school. I honestly can't wait until we're 35 to get a new gaming system. Anyway, it will be fun spending time with my bro, and definitely a good way to end my summer. It's not too often that we can hang out so freely, with little stress hanging over our heads. It will be especially fun next week when we'll get to mess around the house/sleep in while the parents are work.

Alright, that's it for now I suppose. Grand prize to the first commenter on the blog.
