I started building this in my garage. Some glue is setting as I type. I was told that it would be more work than it was worth, but I think otherwise. This could be the start of a new hobby, or the beginning of something big, or another idea that fades away over time. Either way, this boat is going places that I haven't thought up yet, which is what I like about these sorts of ideas. I built it to tow behind my sailboat, so that I can get to and from shore, or as a lifeboat if the ship goes down. Buying one would be expensive, and probably more safe. Neither of which I am interested in.

On another note, school has started and already feels like a grind. It is a regular routine, so I naturally have issues against it, but it also feels good to keep learning. I was excited for cold weather, but the season has came and gone. The snow and ice just melts, leaving ugly traces of salt and road grime. The lake is frozen, but rough and not thick enough to skate on. I've been airing out some sails, taking down the mast, and trying to figure out if the sailboat will fit in the garage. I would like to go back to sleeping on it, even if it still rests uncomfortably on dry land. This weekend, I am going to Columbia. There are a couple parties, but more importantly, friends that I would like to see. Most exams fall on Mondays this semester, so my weekends from now on will have to stay somewhat in control.
