2003 North East Blackout
aturday September 7th, 2013

Well the first week of university is over and done with, and I'm so happy to be back.

I get to dress up every day in clothes that I wanted myself, clothes I know impress. I hide my eyes behind a brand new pair of gold green Raybans that I bought and am sure are real. I have money in my bank account and am comfortable with my spending. My skin is clearing up, my beard compliments my face so well. I'm becoming the man I know I will be.

Scrambling around to get the classes I needed, the faculty for first engineers was no help to me, as usual I had to get things done on my own. But nonetheless through the stress of only having 2 courses, I persisted and managed to get 6 courses by the end of the week.

It was unfortunate to find out that none of my liberals transferred over but I've given up on them, AUS was ultimately a giant waste of time and money, but I admit still that I learned invaluable experiences from my time there. I just wish my father didn't have to pay so much for those lessons.

My father is back, and it's good to have him back. I paid him back the $1000 I owed him because he paid my deposit and I could see he was proud. Mom told me earlier that Dad had said that I had grown into a man since he had left. I'd gotten bigger, standing straighter, more responsible.
I was so glad to hear that my father thought such things of me.
I will make him proud, I will make his life easier, unlike this sister of mine has.

Since he came back, he's been determined to get back into health and joined my gym right away. Just yesterday we went to workout in the early morning together and I loved it. There's nothing like lifting with your father, nothing

    During the last track season, he placed me in a long distance race that I didn’t think I could do. I tried to talk him out of putting me into it, but he wouldn’t budge. When it came time for the race, I could see that he believed in me even though I didn’t believe in myself. In the end, I did better in the race that I thought I would. I was very thankful for Coach’s encouragement and support. He also has been a coach for many years and will continue being a coach. He loves his job as a coach and a teacher and is very good at it.…

    Getting to see everybody everyday can get tiring, in which you want out, but realizing that I'm going to actually graduate in 15 days, it makes me think of all the good times and how I’m going to miss not going to the same school as my brother, and having to make new bonds with new people nonstop and getting new teachers every year that could care more than others or not care as much, and to me 90% of a teacher's job, is caring for their…

    I have no doubt that you are the one who taught him how to ride a bike, which for the last 20+ years, has given him such peace of mind and friendships that he’ll have the rest of his life. I also believe that you might be the culprit for helping him embrace his mechanical abilities as well as his ability to execute anything he sets his mind to with precision that leaves everyone impressed. Like my “yoga deck” I convinced him to help me build earlier this week, my car he fixed when the serpentine belt snapped, or the ceilings he helped my mom paint because she simply couldn’t reach, the list really could go on. He’s also extremely conscious of how he treats the world around him, he has shared those values with me, and he tells me that he gets that awareness from you. These are just a few things that come to mind when I think of “Ryan’s Dad” and that day at the Marsh Walk gave me…

    When I used to go to his house me and my brother would ask him to tell us stories about the war.

    The first time I saw my dad in 3 years was at the Little Rock National Airport. My brother and I ran up to him excitedly from there began our voyage for 3 hours by car to my dad's house. We seemed to have driven all night, even though I was asleep half the time in the back seat of my dads truck. When we got to his house it felt like old times again.

    Life Changing Moment

    I remember that October day so perfectly. I got out of class, called my Aunt Gwen for directions to the hospital he was at, and went on my way. I arrived at the hospital just as my grandpa was slowly making his way down the hallway with his oxygen and with my aunt right by his side. I look at her face and I can tell she is trying to hold back tears. My Uncle Jacky was there too which is my grandpas oldest son. After the doctors we went to Ryan’s restaurant and ate lunch, its where he always ate with my grandma when she had to go to the doctors. Now my grandpa is a big guy and watching him barely eat that day was terribly hard. I could barely look at him for I was trying to hold back all my tears with everything I had. From that day on I knew my grandpa’s life wouldn’t be the same. The doctors said they would be able to cure him, the cancer had spread to his fluids. My grandpa has been doing chemo therapy to just slow the cancer down and sadly he has to come to his last treatment.…

    “If there is one thing I want you learn from our time together, the most important lesson I could ever teach you as your father, is to never give up. When you’re all alone in life and it seems like nothing's going your way, you just need to keep being yourself and keep doing your thing, and people will notice how great you are. In the worst most awful time of your life my best piece of advice to you is just keep going, never give up on yourself and the results will surprise you every time. I guarantee it.” Words like this haven’t been told to me many times in my life. Throughout these first 17 years of my life, ever since my brother and I were young, we haven’t been with our dad constantly, I have lived with my father for probably 40%-30% of…

    Life at Simsree

    A few days later on I was surprised to receive an email written by the Chairman of our senior batch himself, welcoming us to SIMSREE, informing us of an induction day that was going to be held before the start of college. The induction day actually put my nerves to rest as the seniors went out of their ways to give us complete information regarding the college, rules & regulations, what we need to do to build our CV's. This ice breaking session got me all ready to get, set and go to work hard to achieve and pursue my goals as them. As college started I was in for a rude shock when I learnt that we were going to have 11SUBJECTS in the first semester itself. Being a BCom student I was highly relieved to know that few of the subjects were already known to me but what about my other unfortunate engineer friends, accounts was akin to a foreign language for them(by the way they have proven me wrong, as all of them at excel at it).…
