Blatant Disregard for all things responsible.......
The beginning of May cannot come fast enough for me. I'm cheering on the end of Spring semester like I'm at the finish line of a long distance race. All the while, I've been there, with the cups over-flowing with lemon-lime Gatorade. I'm screaming " GO! GO! GO!! You can do it!! "Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to have that much extra time after college is over for the summer, but every little bit helps.
I guess I'm just looking forward to not always feeling like I should be doing something. With school, you could always be doing something. After you finish one HW assignment, there's always going to be another one, or you can study. So how many hours do you spend doing these things on top of class time and travel time? Now I can do relaxing things like: work some over-time to get my broke college goin' arse out of CC debt, or perhaps I can keep working on my living room so, eventually, I can sit down and watch TV in peace without staring at the spackle. But I can't complain, if I didn't have this stuff to do, I'd bitch even more because life would be BORING. So, you can't win, just face it, there's always going to be something.
You just have to appreciate the positives in life: you're not a dead bug on the bottom of someone's shoe, or a bird with a broken wing, you're just a whiny American who can be a super-hero so you have to settle for being Average. But if you work hard, you can become slightly mediocre-plus. Then, maybe, if you decide live in a blimp, hovering the world and floating to various countries. Performing experiments that could potentially cure cancer and , when you have time, fighting terrorism. If you decide to do these things, you MIGHT just be above-average (but there's a lot of paper-work to fill out).

From my oh-so-skewed perspective, a superhero is someone who sticks around, even...no - ESPECIALLY during the nasty times. Someone who takes care of the boring chores just as much as the fun ones. Someone who tries to improve themselves and their lives on an ongoing basis. Someone who, given the choice, tells the truth over a lie. You might not think of these as astounding feats. But most people in the world can't come close to any one of these, much less all of them. IMHO, as glamourous as they may sound, curing cancer and fighting terrorism are for people who aren't brave enough to face the real world day after day.
