Second semester at BYU has made me realize that college isn't all about studies and friends. Its one step towards becoming more responsible by balancing all aspects of life, and one important aspect of life is WORK.
Last semester, I got a job on campus but given my whimsical attitude, never really took work seriously. But this semester, things have surely changed for the good. With 4-days a week 8:00 am classes and regular 11:00 pm max bedtime, I feel far more productive than before. This, of course, comes with the cost of a hectic schedule (breakfast-classes-lunch-work-swimming-dinner-homework-sleep!) and the feeling of always being on the run.
Don't get me wrong, it isn't all that torturous. Work limits to 20 hours per week and on top of that, I limit myself to around 16 hours. Giving time to study, hang out with friends and relax. Especially with the exciting basketball season rolling, every weekend brings with it an adrenaline-rushing b-ball thrill.
I guess that as college goes on, it'll keep getting worse, or better. Depends on how you look at it. But for me, its definitely getting better.

The Long Awaited Articles Gets Published
As this blog as been my little diary of events and experiences, it fascinates a lot of people to look at life through my perspective. I admit that maybe my writing isn't top-notch, but I do have some darn good stories to tell, eh? (haha)
Reading through these experiences, a reporter for the Deseret News decided to do a story on my little experiences. After having a brief interview on the phone and a photo-shoot in the middle of the library, I was eagerly waiting to see the article published. I wanted to add that article to my presentation as the icing on the cake, but I guess it needed some more time therefore I couldn't. So during the Winter break while I was in Houston, a got a facebook message from friend saying "Dude, you're famous!" Finally, it was out.
It was uplifting to read the article and the comments that followed, especially the encouraging remarks many people had written. Going through them I got the feeling of finally putting a message out there, a positive message for that matter.
I can tell you're dying to read it, well here it is!
