| Editor's Note: I stole this from a blog i wrote on myspace.com....so
it's a few days old, but nonetheless still applicable. I just need to
start writing more on xanga so I figured this would help me get started
again.....
The weekend was sweetness, I saw the movie "Waiting" with Erin on
Sunday, I haven't laughed that hard at a movie in awhile. I wish i
could relate to it more though, since i've never really worked in a
restaurant, but it still applies to the college years in general. It
feels like there are so many decisions you have to make about the rest
of your life in a few short years, and there is no easy way out of
it.......
Which brings me to another point, my amigo from that 'other' school had
an awesome quote last night, and if he ever becomes famous, he better
get recognition for this quote, even if he didn't make it up....it's
just that awesome....it goes
"Some people go through life always looking for a handout, not realizing that life itself is a handout"
.....ok that might not be exactly word for word what it was....but you
get the idea. It makes you realize how many opportunities are knocking
on our door every day, we just have to be the proactive type and grab
them. That's what separates the great from the not-so-great. Don't even
worry about unfairness, and how some people get it easier than others,
it doesn't matter. Everyone still has an opportunity to do something,
to be something, to want something. Bitching doesn't get you anywhere
(as far as the whiny, poor-me sense.....I did bitch to capstone for not
returning me my security deposit from last year, and that proved
successful, so bitching has it's moments)...and nor should it, feeling
sorry yourself is lame, you should take all that wasted energy and put
it to good use.
Well speaking of good use, I should be studying instead of trying to
dive into a world of philosophy i can't even pretend to figure out.
By the way, school is crappy hard right now, but come mid-October i
always feel this way, it just sucks because this is my favorite time of
year. My true nerdiness is showign though, at least 3 times a week i'm
at the library for about 4-7 hours each time. I wanna do good in
school, but I feel like there is a correlation of having good grades
and having no social life, and I can't handle that. Something needs to
be done to solve this dilemma, something epic. I just have to figure
out what...
damn ryan adams and your thought-provoking music

| - Speed of Sound ¡¡¡¡¡OMG!!!!!! ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ ADM (AY, DIOS MIO)!!!!
I´m in SPAIN!!!!
OK, so here goes.....I know I haven´t wrote in this in over 6 months, fair enough....and lots of stuff has happened since then, but point is, I´m in spain right now, and it is absolutely utterly amazing.
I don´t think I´ve ever recalled a summer, where I went to class for 3 hrs a day, ate lunch at 1, and then proceeded to head down to the beach for 4 hours where I worked on an already awesome tan I have......it´s cool beans plus ten.....ten million that is.
I´ve made amazing friends here, lifelong amazing friends, they´re all crazy in some way, just like me, so it all works out for the best. We´re definitely making shirts when we get back to the states, and those shirts will be in the baseball-t format, with the team name being "OH BILLY", my number will be 1 of course, and my nickname will be "OFO".....all of these are horribly dumb inside jokes, but I had to put it out there just so everyone could see that I have nerdy friends that are as dorky and cool as I am.
On a side note, Spain does not like, nor wants to have anywhere in its vicinity, MEXICAN FOOD!!!! OMG HOW I MISS MEXICAN FOOD!!!!! Taco Bell is my friend when I get home, i´mna buy 2 of the best frickin chalupas that are known to man, loaded with sour cream, stale cheese, and the worst but somehow best mix of Grade F beef and spices there ever was......ohhhhhh i can´t wait.
I would type on here more, probably pages more, of info about how much I love it here, but I´ll stop here since I´m going to eat some amazingly delcious hambuger-like food at our cute little restaurante called Sebas. If anyone actually checks my profile since Í haven´t written in it since December, I´ll be frickin amazed, but nonetheless happy......
I bought the new Coldplay cd the other day, pretty decently good, i´mna have to listen to it more to decide if i love it or not, but so far it´s good stuff......
Peace out playas....3 more weeks and I´m back to where I started.....good times good times | | |
| - Such Great Heights - Is this it?
I hate school, I wanna quit.
I don't know what else to say, it's hard, it sucks, 18 credits was way too much......was I wrong for taking all of these classes? I thought I could do it, but turns out I couldn't. Ahh, I hate being wrong. I had so much drive and energy in the beginning of the semester to do well, but it's all gone. I just want it to be over. One more week and it will be.....finally.
Aside from that depressing note, I have an electric guitar. My friends and family are the greatest people in the world, and that's definitely the truth. I can't complain about how good I've got it, as much as I hate school and working and sometimes life, I have the best people around me. I wanna say thanks, because without you I would be curled up in a fetal position, huddled in some corner of my room surrounded by orgo notes strewn (sp?) all about, shouting random things like "homolytic bond cleavage" and "razzle dazzle", or something along those lines.
Tuesday night Hannah and I stayed at the library until 8am working on stuff for my Inuit presentation....it was insane being there for so long. But it's done, and I got my honors option outta the way. If I was organized, I woulda had that presentation done two weeks ago, complete with notecards and a good idea of what I was gonna say. Of course that didn't happen, and the first time I went through the whole presentation was during class.......when I actually had to present it. Amazingly I did well, and I actually sounded like I knew what I was talking about. The teacher loooooved it, especially the picture of the two inuits 'eskimo' kissing on the first slide. How stereotypical to show two eskimos 'eskimo' kissing....haha.....but it all made sense in the end.
Well that is that, and this is this: DAVE!!!! HAPPY 21st BDAY!!! woohoo, another 21er in the group, a very momentous occasion. I'm excited for my present from dave....hehe i bet all of you can already guess what it is.
Off to class I go for the day, if you see some guy running around campus naked, screaming, and with bio notes flying out of his hands....just let him be.....sometimes people need to let out some stress, and sometimes people need to be naked.....and sometimes people need to do both at the same time.
With that....I bid you all a fair adieu.

| - caring is creepy - Tired......
I fell asleep in my bed at 11....and got up at 4:30....now I'm just a zombie sitting here....I want to go back to sleep, but I have class at 9:10. I am being so lazy right now, I have barely gotten anything accomplished....and I have so much work to do today, it's annoying.
I want to be more organized....but I know it won't happen.
I've gotten a lot better this year though, but I think the next couple of weeks are gonna be tough.....I don't have much drive left. 18 credits is kicking my ass
I worked this weekend....it was awesome going back to work and making money. Sometimes I wish I could just be working and making money, but then I think about how much it sucks working every day.....and that I'm still glad I'm in college and have the drive to delay working until a few years from now.
I need an energy boost..... | | |
| Soooooo this weekend was fantabulous.....and I have to say I never knew Ann Arbor could be such a.....well i hate to say this....but a cool town. Jake invited all of us cool MSU kids down to the dorms for the weekend. Some of the highlights of the weekend include the mattress-tackling game, sleeping in the 'library', watching scott and jake make the rent-a-cop their bitch, fun trips to the bathroom, and all of the awesome music i got to hear over the whole weekend. Ohh yeah.....and UofM losing to OSU....which I can't say I'm happy for....because Michigan is going to the Rose Bowl anyway thanks to our wonderful MSU team beating Wisconsin.
The weekend concluded with a tiring drive back home around 10am sunday morning, and then I had to study a million hours for physics......no fun there.
Ooohh ooohh today my roommates and I made an aweeeeeesome Thanksgiving dinner complete with yams, stuffing, mashed potatos, green beans, rolls.....and Kyle made a huge turkey all by himself which was awesomely good!!! Mmmm it was the best meal i've had in awhile...and the greatest part is that it's only a prelude to the food i'm gonna have this weekend.
And last night I got to kick some ass in online euchre against the "all-reigning champs" that actually suck!!! haha j/k tara and jake....i'll have to visit you guys in boise, idaho and topeka, kansas sometime....and miss spud queen will have to show me around boise.
I'm starting to practice guitar again after a slow month of not playing very much. My fingers are starting to get calloused (sp?) again....I love life
Thanksgiving is da bomb
Adios
PS-I'm for sure going to Spain now....and instead of MSU notifying me via email or letter that I got into the program, they send me a notice that I have a $100 application fee to pay for.....I love college | | |
