With only two days remaining until summer is here I can hardly wait. This semester seemed to blow by then come to a grinding halt all at once. I'm ready for a break from school and having a few months to sit back, relax and enjoy the good weather as well as see my parents.
For everyone I leave behind up in San Jose I look forward to seeing you on my trips up here and in July when I move back.
To my brothers AEKDB and see you all soon.

Final Lost Blog from April
So I was able to salvage some of the blogs from my hardware failure on my computer as seen with my last two posts in May that were actually ready to be published for April.
I'm just glad that things are working out and that I was able to recover some of the lost data.
School for the month of April has been a challenge with managing everything and maintaining my standard of excellence for all of my classes, with the final push for the end of the year and finals. I've continued to push back a project or two until the deadline and then be forced to finish it the night before and due to this I've received a few lack luster grades.
While I try to keep my procrastination to a minimum it really seems to be something I do far more this semester then ever before in college, and I think its part due to pledging and part just there seems to be a lot more things to do on week night then last semester.
I just hope that I'm able to go into the final month of May and finish off my Junior year the way it started. End with above a 3.0 and head home for the summer.
See you all in May

3.1 and Wrath
With the release of 3.1 new content and raid environemet has been added to the game. While I have not gotten a ton of play time in due to school work, from what I have seen the new zone is truely a challenge not to be riviled with.
While mages saw yet more nerfs across the board and Inscription is becoming a worthless profession I still find myself holding on to it due to the fact of getting Server First in the trade skill, seems a bit rough to toss it aside after getting that achievement.
"3.1 is supposed to be the huge balance patch to fix all, and while it's promising, it's looking to be no different than any other patch in which 2-3 classes from the middle ground rise up to be overpowered or dominate the top; initially at least. However, I don't think I've ever seen a patch so huge in terms of balance changes, and decent ones at that. Blizzard seems to be responding to issues that plagued season 5, and even if it took a long time, they're still doing something to at least bring the game back to a level that isn't nearly as mediocre as before. You can't help but to be happy at that, even when **** is going to be laggy and unstable for a week just like every patch."

Broken Hardware
So this past Thursday I managed to break my laptop and lose all of my information including my blogs that I had written for the month April, fun huh? After having burned out my video card on my desktop to breaking my laptop its been quite a fun month to say the least, so now I figure ill just rewrite what I was planning on posting.
The month of April has been a busy month for me in not only school life but also fraternity life. This month we had our PD up at Berkeley and with the theme "Boats and Hoe’s” it was quite fun though I spent most of my time making sure that everything going well and insuring that other people had a good time, I mean its a fair trade for one person to have an average time if it allows fifty others to have a great night, a small sacrifice. I also was awarded "Super Pledge" and received my paddle from my big brother Jordan. That about wraps up PD but there was plenty more that occurred these months don’t worry.
Also this month we had our wonderful imitation, I'm now a full brother of Kappa Sigma Fraternity even though from time to time the label JI gets tossed around, but I believe its just an on going label that’s gotten tossed down year to year though it holds no real negative connotation. It feels fantastic to have the burden of pledging off my shoulders and able to focus on all of the class work that I had put off the whole semester. While I still am managing mostly A's and B's a grade or two has slipped due to this, but I'm working on that recovery.
Our philanthropic event went off to a huge success and also gave me footage for my video that I'm planning on doing. Beauty Bowl raised over $1400 for the wonderful ladies of Alpha Phi and the society they wish to give the money to.
That’s about all I have for now, god I love and hate computers from time to time, I guess its all about learning to find that happy medium.

Spring Break
Spring Break was an amazing time to go home and catch up with everyone from SoCal again. I got to see the usual crew and see how they were doing and what all they have done in my absence. Over break we celebrated Ryan's 23ed birthday, went to Vegas with my friends Lulu and Zan, and mourned the loss of a great friend Sandeep.
Ryan's birthday was the weekend after we returned home, was a coming together of old friends and just great to see everyone, and find out how everyone was doing. Aside from all most getting in a fight with his girlfriends brother while intoxicated it evening went quite well and I for the most part was able to catch up with all those who I left behind back in SoCal.
Vegas was fantastic, stayed in master suites in the Paris and gambled and drank like all college kids should do in Vegas. On Tuesday Zan, Frado, Lulu, and I headed out in the E55 to make the trip to Vegas. This was my first trip back to Vegas since I was 21 and all I have to say is that it was an amazing experience. While losing money was no fun for the total drink / gambling losses coming down to a $70 that’s a number I can afford. I could not of asked to go with better people.
Finally the most tragic event over the break was the death of a good high school friend Sandeep, you will truly be missed bud and I wish you the best where ever you are now. May you rest in peace.
Another Spring Break down means I'm just that much closer to graduation, I can only hope that my next one is as eventful as this one minus the death of a loved on.
