Today is my last day of class! Ever! I am no longer bound by the restraints of this institution!

Ok, that’s not entirely true. I won’t be truly free until I actually graduate. However, I never have to go to another class. Ever again. Unless I want to…. or lose my mind and decide to get another degree. Whichever.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, I’ve decided to share my hot summer jams with you. These are songs that I just can’t stop listening to, that totally put me in the mood for summer-summer-summertime. You feel me? So, without further ado, I give you Cee’s Hot Tunes for the Hot Days:

1. Jojo - Houstatlantavegas (Remix)
2. The-Dream - Hater (please check out this [fan?] video - it’s amazing)
3. DAY26 - Think of Me
4. Drake - Best I Ever Had*
5. Black Eyed Peas - Ring-a-ling
6. Kings of Leon - Manhattan
7. Brandy & Ne-Yo - Decisions
8. Young Money - Every Girl**
9. Lady Gaga - Lovegame
10. Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow
11. John Legend featuring Estelle - No Other Love

* This one has grown on me, though I still see it as a straight jack of this Lil Wayne joint. But what do I know?
** Yeah, yeah, I know. But he ain’t talkin’ bout me!

So, one of my classes is very boring.  Very, very boring.  Despite my best efforts, I can’t help but google random things and write emails during this class instead of paying attention to the professor.  However, I am not the only one.  Lest you go on thinking that there will be a “better” or “higher” caliber of students in graduate school, I’d like to let you know that grad students fall asleep, too.  Today, I looked to my right at a friend of mine and he was nodding off.  This class has less than 30 students in it.  I poked him in the arm to wake him up, but we both think the professor saw him.  Later, he said it was unintentional - “I really thought I was paying attention before I fell asleep.”

Bless his heart.

Ok, I have a lot of stuff to say, but I’m gonna make this quick because, frankly, I have other things to do.  I’m here at the University of Georgia and it’s been… something.  Classes started last week and aside from being put on the spot on the second day, things are going well on that front.  The classes are a lot smaller and more discussion oriented than I’m used to.  I haven’t decided how I feel about that yet.  I can say that, in one of my classes, I’ve pretty much decided not to offer up my own opinions anymore.  I’ll respond to other people but I have no intentions of putting my own thoughts and ideas on the table.  I’m not a fan of the class or the people in it (though many of them are in my other classes too).

I’m trying to find my niche here.  I know I said I’d be posting a lot once I got here but the unthinkable happened… I didn’t get internet until this Wednesday evening!!!  And so I’ve been overloading myself with TV shows (Psych, Burn Notice, Eureka) and movies (How to Rob a Bank, Grandma’s Boy, Prom Night 2008) on the internet because I also do not have cable!  It was like living in the Stone Age.  If you’ve been reading or even glancing at twitter, you know these things and that I’ve yet to find My Kind of people.  I’m also looking for a job and volunteering with student athletes.  The job will be to pay for cable, which I must have soon because football season begins shortly.

I’m also trying to figure out what to do for my birthday.  Going to Fort Lauderdale was tossed around as an idea but I don’t have the money to fly down there, really.  So, I guess we’ll see.

For now, I must go.  I have some readings for class to do, need to clean up, and I have somewhere to be this afternoon.
