75: Last Humpday of Undergrad Ever

Not that there's anything special about humpday. It's just fun to say. Humpday.

I had lunch today with Sandy (Asst. VP for Student Services), Bob Kubat (the university registrar), Sandy's assistant, and the other commencement responders. It wasn't until then I realized just how cool it was that the four responders were all on Mortar Board, and we were having a casual lunch with Sandy and Bob, two really influential people at Purdue. I just looked online for the definition of "registrar." I probably should have known Bob's job description beforehand, but hey, I do now. I had some stuffed roasted chicken with risotto. Man, good stuff. I love free meals.

Some of my graduating peers are still extra busy with research and stuff. I feel bad for them. It shouldn't be like that. I still have some business to finish with my extracurricular activities, but I'm taking it easy for the most part. I finally found time yesterday to go to the corec. I practiced some racquetball shots and lifted. I tried jogging back from the corec to my apartment, but I gave up after a couple blocks. Yeah, sad, right? I was so physically drained because I hadn't worked out for so long. I took a small detour on the way back to do a fountain run. Well, more like five fountain runs. It was hot as hell out. It was the first time I had done a fountain run in a year or two, and it was the first time I had done one by myself. I wish someone had been there to see me besides that random guy reading in the grass. I bet my glistening gut was pretty sexy. Me + water = chick magnet.

Oh yeah, grades came out today. Finishing strong! My overall GPA went up .02 points. Score! It's a great feeling when you can look back and say, "I worked just hard enough for that A." Right on. I wouldn't want to overexert myself.
