I Almost Forgot How to Blog

July 24th, 2008 by Chris S

It has been so long since the last time I posted, I almost forgot how to do it.  Plus my computer is running a little funky on me today, so my font is really messed up and I don’t know why.  Things have been crazy lately, which is why I haven’t posted in a while.

First, let me start with a good story.  This past Friday night I was out with my girlfriend, her brother and his girlfriend and we were at a local bar in south Florida and we saw this guy sitting at the bar and I said, “Man, he looks just like that Adam guy who won Big Brother.”  Next thing you know, he turns around, and guess who, it was him!  She wanted a picture with him so bad, but I didn’t want to be a groupie so I didn’t ask, but her brother talked to him for a while, and he was really cool and he comes out to that bar all the time, so we will see him again.

Then on Saturday we went to the Marlins and Phillies game.  We were right at the right-center fence, literally, the first row.  We  caught about 4-5 balls during batting practice and then throughout the game, got a couple of balls from the players.  Finally today I have nothing to do after work, I can go home and relax.

I have everything completed that I need to do for my new apartment, I just have to wait on the HOA and get things rolling with that.  I can’t wait to get out of the place that I am in now.  Crime central is what the complex should be called.  Well, now that I just started to remember what blogging is all about, I have to end this post.  Catch  you all tomorrow!

More Stress : Finals Cancelled because of shooting on my FAU Campus

May 1st, 2008 by Chris S

So with only two finals to go, a little interuption has taken place. I’m sure a lot of you have already heard on the news about the shooting that occurred last night at my college, Florida Atlantic University in south Florida. Campus is still on lock down and that means no classes, which means no finals. What a way to add to the stress I am under already. Luckily, nobody was injured and good thing I decided not to try and pull an all nighter at the library last night because it was locked down until 5 a.m. I feel bad for the students who are scheduled to graduate on this Friday, because they may have finals today and tomorrow and who knows when those will be rescheduled for.

I know this isn’t too much of a “diabetic blog”, but I just wanted to talk about the new emergency alert system that our school, FAU, has put into place. After the Va Tech shootings they were designing a new alert system, and I would say it was successful. Within 2 minutes police were on the scene, a campus wide siren was sounding, along with a PA announcement throughout the whole campus alerting students to stay indoors. E-mails and posts on the website were sent right away. Good thing for Facebook also, because it was all over there within minutes. I may have harsh feelings against FAU right now for cancelling the summer class I needed because of budget cuts, but if this is where the money went, then it was money well spent in my eyes.
