Take away these chains from me.
The past two nights I have stayed up preparing myself. Night 1 was a tactical and logical night of preparation. Night 2 was filled with what if's and laughing with good friends about what could happen in the future. I'm excited for everything, all the while I know stress is going to be a constant for the next 4 months. Once I step onto that dinghy my mind and heart will be settled. This is the first time in a long time I am looking forward to being a greenhorn.
Time has wings and the sun rises and sets faster than we realize. I realize this, but its still so hard to wrap your mind around.
As I walked through campus today collecting signatures I felt like I was the only person with a pulse. The people around me were nothing but zombies. Maybe they are all in a coma because of this dreary wet weather, but I doubt it. The truth is, I don't belong here and never have. I made the most out of my situation and I leave a happy man.
I've got the itch for another tattoo. I'm thinking a variation of this.
