It was supposed to be so easy

12-06-04
2 a.m.
Obsessive with the blockbuster movie pass!
I have watched more movies over the last month than i could ever imagine.-
Everyday- 2 in 2 out.
It's now standard to watch one each night before i fall asleep.
Here's a abbreviated list of a few i have seen:
Requiem for a Dream
Pi
The Shining
The Pelican Brief
Rules of Attraction
Coffee and Cigarettes
Rushmore
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
.
I have finished classes @ Clemson University.
Not sure what the future has in store.
Graduation: 12-16-04.
I bought a beautiful Clemson painting entitled "Clemson Moon"
Its of Tillman at night. I have had to walk past Tillman on my way to classes a majority of my time at Clemson so I thought a painting of Tillman would be fitting.
.
Today I traveled to Greenville with the intentions of studying for my finals. Instead, I spent quality time @ Earshot, HalfMoon, & Barnes and Noble. I am starting to get into the holiday spirit. I absolutely love seasons. I love the decorations; the holiday music; the site of mothers with their little children out shopping for gifts; the strings of lights lining homes & wrapped around trees. I love shopping actually or atleast moreso than the average guy. I get so excited about buying the perfect Christmas gifts.
.
Jocelyn delivered! Brayden McCoy Renfrow 11-30-04.
This baby is absolutely beautiful. I never think newborn babies are beautiful but I am amazed at the pictures I have seen of Brayden. I am thankful the baby was born with no complications.
This makes me an uncle; Sara Bryant an aunt; and Debbie and Gordon Grandparents.
.
Debutante (Dillon) is 12-18-04 and I have no date! I absolutely love debutante. It is a time I am actually happy to be from Dillon. My first time attending was in 2000. My date was Katie Calhoun. Then in 2002, Amber Hiergesell. These were some of my funnest times in Dillon since I left for college.
.
Back to Barnes and Noble... People magazine is really fun to read. It is so up to date. My favorite magazine of the moment is British GQ. It is relatively expensive due to it being an import (~$8). I want to go back to London sometime. I also want to travel back to historic Quebec. I think that would be a wonderful place for a honeymoon.
.
I want to make a last minute Christmas "wish list". I will do it later but first on my list is a Eurail pass. I intend on backpacking parts of Europe for a couple of months in the Spring. Italy and the Greek Islands are definite.
