I'm just sitting here in the dorm getting ready for my Buffalo Bills play the St. Louis Rams at 4:00pm. I've finished my paper so I get to take it easy for the rest of the afternoon. The real work starts this week though since Brighton and I are starting our applications to the School of Management. On the one hand, I really want to get in but I'm also getting pretty tired of school. I'm sure my grandfather would give me a job without a graduate degree, but I really want to have it. Even though he wouldn't necessarily require a normal applicant to have a graduate degree, I still don't want to feel like I get special treatment just because I happen to be his granddaughter.
I do think that Grandfather is ready to hand the company over to Ned and AJ pretty soon. He won't say it yet, but I think the time has come. After my grandmother died, he really threw himself into the company, but he's not getting any younger and I think he deserves to be happy and retired. I think by summer he'll start letting AJ and Ned take over.
Anyway, I'm pretty excited about the Bills. They've won their first three games so I hope they keep it going. I wouldn't want to jinx anything, but is there a Super Bowl in my future?! I hope so! Maybe Grandfather would even take us! I've never been to Arizona. I bet I would like it! I shouldn't get too excited. I mean, the Bills are famous for choking (especially in Super Bowls) anyway. Let's just hope they get through this game first.
Even the Big Red have won their first two games. Maybe this is my football year. Then again when your in a conference with Harvard and Yale, who let's face it are not exactly football powerhouses, it's shouldn't be difficult to get some W's. We play Lehigh this weekend so we'll see how that goes. Jack's coming for the weekend and the gang's all going to the game. I love watching the guys watch the game because they get so into it. I mean, I adore football, but the guys think every play is a life or death situation. Jack has actually become quite the Cornell fan since we've been dating. He loves coming to the games. Tailgating, pre-gaming, hanging with the Sig Pi boys. I swear, you'd think he went here and was a member of their frat! They even made him an honorary brother. And they gave him a certificate! Royce, the president of Sig Pi, made one on Publisher and presented it to him. It was so cute!
Anyway, my original point was this year's football potential is looking good!
Fall Break will be here before I know it. October 11-15. It'll be the first time I've been home this year since Robin's baby shower. She should be popping that baby out before too long!
