Kim trouble
Since arriving from Miami on Sunday I have had an enjoyable week. Monday night the fraternity had one of the shortest meetings we have had ina while which was mostly good because other people enjoyed it and that makes meetings more fun. I wouldn't care if they were 2 hours long if other people have a good time than it can be a lot of fun. Kim got super pissed at me for not coming over on Monday night. I always spend Monday and Wednesday nights at my place because of class on Tuesday and Thursday but she was in a bad mood so she expected me to come over and comfort her. I told her to come over. She said she didn't want to because she din't want to be seen upset by my friends. I said I didn't want to come over because of class. Because neither of us wanted to go over to the other one's house and she was upset that makes me wrong. That seemed pretty unfair so I stood my ground and she was pissed.
Tuesday was Valentines day, she was still pissed. It's not a holliday I can get into. If you are single it means that you can get a date and that's pretty cool. But when your dating someone it is supposed to be something special. To me if a relationship isn't worth it without doing "something special" than it probably won't be without doing something special. None the less. I bought Kim some flowers, her favorites which are daisies and some roses. Which is convenant because daisies are cheap, but they make me look like an ass to someone that doesn't know that they are her favorite. I brought them to her volleyball practice in a suit which was super classy because she probably felt cool in front of her freinds and she wasn't expecting it. Well maybe she was, but not in a suit. After that we went out to dinner at Bloom in Broomfield Mall.
Tuesday Wednesday Thursday were three straight days of tests and they went well. Probably like an 85-90 on my Nutrition test, a 100 on my Statistics test, and a B to A- on my Air Pollution Control test.
Thursday night we had intramural soccer and we dominated. I scored once and we were up 6-0 before we goofed off and ended 6-3. We pulled a classless move by scoring on ourselves on purpose when it was 6-0. We had to play a man down because we were dominating. And we thought that was stupid so we scored on ourselves. I think that is demoralizing to the other team. I'd much rather say I lost 6-0 than 6-1 because the other team was beating us so bad they scored on themselves. But what is done is done.
After that Kim and I had a pretty big fight. I'm not sure how it started but I told her something I've been trying to gather up the courage to tell her for a long time. That I did not believe that we would ever get married. The reasons for which are probably best to save for another article. It all started when a long time ago we were talking about Libby and Charlie. We were concerned because we knew that she wanted to marry him and that was a big problem for me. I confirmed with Charlie however that he was not going to marry her. I told Kim and we were realeved. But she said that he should tell her if he knew becuase if he led her on that was pretty dick. I can't remember if at the time I knew what I know now, but that stuck with me. While it is hard to tell someone that I love you but not that much, I thought that it was fair.
Friday Kim left for her Volleyball tourny in Arizona and I skied Breck. The skiing was ok at best, but Saturday night I partied and it was the first time I partied in at least a couple weeks. I had a lot of fun, and my beer pong game was on fire.
The rest of the weekend was pretty uneventful except tonight (Sunday) I went out with the Zellens whose daughter is interested in going to Boulder. I thought I was going to answer a lot of questions and help her decide what school she wanted to go to, but it turned more into a lot of me talking to Richard about myself. I guess that is why it was a little boring, but also I think we failed to find a topic of interest. Richard is a really nice guy but I guess it just didn't click. One of the things I saw that was somewhat interesting is how Richard is kind of targeted by his family and they rip on him a lot. I think this experience will affect how I handle myself with my family someday to avoid any person in my family from being singled out. In my family now I think that my mom and I work together to help each other from being singled out by my dad.
I look forward to the week ahead and I will work to maximize my happiness.
