AI Thread Summary
The discussion reflects on the end of a fun-filled break after a series of enjoyable activities, including trips to Atlantic City and California, and participation in local poker tournaments. The user expresses disappointment as school resumes, marking a return to a full-time student status with the added challenge of a controls lab. They also mention starting to study for the GRE to enhance their vocabulary, despite not needing to take the test. The conversation introduces the phrase "vinegar sun," humorously describing the harsh reality of returning to responsibilities after a period of enjoyment, likening it to the unpleasantness of waking up to a bright morning after a night of fun. The lighthearted tone continues with playful banter about homework and the meaning of the expression.

The Honeymoon is over :(

Well, finally FINALLY I had a relaxing break. I went with some friends to Atlantic City and had a Blast. Then I went to a club in DC for new years and had a blast, woke up 3 hours later and caught a flight to California and had a blast for 10 days. Then I got back home and have been playing in poker tournaments at the local Bars every single night for 6 hours a day meeting cool people and having a blast. But alas, school starts tomorrow and my fun has come to an end.

Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...:mad: :mad: :mad: Oh, and I am taking a controls lab which makes me full time student again. Double DAMNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Oh, and I am starting to look at the GRE today, and there are all these words I don't know. (D'OH! ) I don't need to take the GRE, but I figure it can't hurt to expand my vocabulary anyways. Then I can start talking like Warren or Danger. :-p

Triple DAMNNNNNN!

...wonk wonk wonk...:frown:

Haaa Haaa!

I finished on December 19 start again on Jan 24th.

Now if you will excuse me, its almost 7 PM, and I am going to go play some more poker while I still can. :biggrin:

I got first place on one tournament and I got a first place t-shirt that says the bars name, the name of the poker leauge, (Battle of the Bars Gamings Series), and "Poker Champion".

:smile: I've never heard that expression before, but I like it! So, is a vinegar sun like when you wake up the next morning and turn the lights on and see what you're sleeping next to with clear eyes? :smile:
 
I would think so, yes. And also the effect sharp sunbeams have on bleary, weary eyes the day after.
