Every Thursday, my classes start bright and early at 8:30 AM. This particular Thursday, however, I awoke at 9:20. Yes, by the time I was rubbing my eyes and reading a text message from a worried classmate inquiring as to where I was, I was already 50 minutes late for class. By the time I actually arrived, embarrassed and looking a mess, I was 75 minutes late for class (my first class is 140 minutes long). It was an unpleasant experience, and I had never been that late to something in my life (save for one incident in grade school, but that's another story). This morning was just a nasty experience overall thanks to my body's inconsiderate little habit of forcing me to satisfy its needs like sleeping and eating. Most people I know are able to control this, or have a bodily clock that would have the courtesy of at most oversleeping until a few minutes before their first class. Not mine!
To look on the flipside, I was extraordinarily well rested today.

The First Post
Well, here it is. I suppose I should introduce myself, though I am sure that anyone directed towards this blog knows me already. I am John Butler, a Film and English major at Southern Adventist University in Collegedale, Tennessee. I'm a freshman at the moment. I like a variety of things: movies, photography, the arts (I'm basically a very humanities-oriented person), architecture, all kinds of music, travel, swimming and cycling. Of course, that's not everything, but I don't think a more thorough, in-depth look at me is necessary at this time. I'm starting this blog as a place to talk about various things; I will be posting original compositions from time to time, little observations I make, updates on the new path which I am headed down (college), things I find on the internet, and posts on plenty of other topics will be made. Please, read and enjoy this blog!
