Wes’s Life

Nathan and I went over to my sister’s house for some crabs and burg­ers yes­ter­day. The crabs were good, but could have used more Old Bay and could have been bigger.

We ended up stay­ing from 3 until mid­night. We played Cra­nium and Scene-​It, which Nathan and I won all three times.

And I obvi­ously got a new pic­ture of Stoley because he is just so damn pho­to­genic.

No, I didn’t get mar­ried this week­end, but my sister did. She is now Mrs. Nicole Clabaugh and I am very happy for her. I believe that her hus­band, Nick, is one of the best pos­si­ble people for her to marry. They are defin­tely a good and loving match. Right now they are prob­a­bly out at sea on their cruise ship enjoy­ing the trop­i­cal weather and prob­a­bly having a drink or gam­bling. After all that they went through with the fam­i­lies and all of the stress of the wed­ding, Nick and Nicole defin­tely deserve every bit of their Hon­ey­moon.

As for the cer­e­monies, the priest was excel­lent. He turned an often somber prode­cure into a funny and joyous occa­sion. Dur­ring his sermon he had quite a few good and relevent jokes. After the wed­ding, we went to the recep­tion which had a car­ribean theme. There was tons of stuff on the tables, rang­ing from flamingo sun glasses to goody boxes that were Chi­nese food take­out boxes. Each table was an island in the Caribbean, such as Bahamas or St. Kitts. The DJ man­aged to play some Jimmy Buf­fett as well.

By the way, the next time you see Nicole, ask her if she is ner­vous.

Right now, not much is hap­pen­ing in my life. My sister’s birth­day was today and I hope she had a good birth­day. She is get­ting mar­ried soon enough and I have to fly up and be there for the dress rehearsal, but I have classes that day so might get there late or not at all.

I guess I have been play­ing video games too much in my life and I think I need a change, but to be honest with you it is hard to stop doing some­thing so enter­tain­ing and inter­est­ing to me. How­ever, the game has become increas­ingly lack­lus­ter to me. It has allowed me to get more work done, such as read­ing and study­ing.

I have about three more weeks until Spring break, when I am going to get fitted for my tuxedo for my sister’s wed­ding and just relax for a week. Albeit, I don’t really need the rest at this point.

This semes­ter seems to have an easier course load, how­ever I am not sure how the grades are going to end up. With last semes­ter I knew I had my Linear Alge­bra and Eng­lish classes to bump my grade up. This semes­ter every­thing just seems to present itself as being more chal­leng­ing and there­fore harder. This also presents a much larger prob­lem, the first semes­ter I received a 3.4 GPA, there­fore I must always do better than this. So, I really have to work on study­ing and work­ing harder on cer­tain things.

I am still won­der­ing about my major choice. Every time I start to wonder what else I could be doing, I get back to the fact that I like the coding aspect, know­ing that that pro­gram is mine, or that I worked on it.
