My Last Night

I remember the first day of college showing up with a guy ive known all my life (rob) and a third wheel named tony. I didn't really know what to expect. My RA seemed kinda odd the first day. The other guys were all already friends and were really welcoming and instantly we had friends. Putting three super friendly outgoing people in one tiny room is a recipe for fun. And fun we had this year. Climbing the bluffs and getting chased by a golf course manager on a gator, going to madison for halloween, getting the first snow day in forever, sharing Christmas gifts, coming back knowing rob would be leaving us, playing intramural basketball, lifting weights, playing ultimate ninja, growing in a universal hate towards cafe food, talking till three in the morning, playing ping pong like everyday, and millions of other things.

The year was super fast. I'm not sure where it went. I went from a stupid freshman knowing nothing to a going-to-be RA and knowing all the ins and outs of the majority of things on campus. Also everyone pitied us for having to live in a double room with three people, but i wouldn't have had it any other way. We will miss you tons next year rob. But not the year is over. I sit here at two in the morning in an empty room with my choice of three beds to sleep in, wondering how all of this crap laying around will fit into a car. Also im not sure how i will fall asleep tonight being the only person in this tiny room. It's very different when you have one people in a 25 sq foot room versus three.

Well that's enough moooshy silly crap for the night. I dunno if i will ever write in here again, so i bid all of you that still read this....my dad and grandfather and sister, adu!

Ping Pong Results For The Semester:

Zach 75-27 Tony 81-57 Pete 36-109

Now all i have to say is that i didn't get to play Zach nearly enough and by the end of the year as in the last three weeks i could beat tony any day and pretty much was an equal player for the most part. So all in all the award of MVP goes to Zach, but the most improved player of the year goes to Pete. I'm pretty good now.

The End of Rob

He's gone, he's gone. Rob left with his mother this afternoon. He didn't leave in tears which was a disappointment but he did leave a hero. Rob dominated college. Walked in a stupid freshman like all of us but within seconds he was pretty much a senior. He took over the newspaper here on campus and made all the professors his students. Joe Gow was even a little threatened at his chancellor position but rob told him he didn't have time for silly things like that.

But now rob is gone and tony and i are here alone doing our best to survive. I had a econ test today and i think it went pretty well. Hopefully well enough that i got an 'A' in the class but at least well enough to not let me drop below a 'B'. Tomorrow i have chemistry and then i am officially dont with my freshman year of college.

Running Out Of Time

The end has neared and soon it was be here. I haven't been writing as consistently in the blog this semester but hey im in college i can do what i want. God has gifted us was horrible weather so i have been able to concentrate for extended periods of time inside. If it were nice out i probably wouldn't be doing so well but so far so good. Tomorrow i have my first exams. The two i have are actually just like regular tests for the most part so it's a good way to get things moving along, but then thursday and friday they get tougher and i need to get good grades to keep my letter grades high. So yeah not looking forward to them but i did some reasoning and the better prepared i am the fast the exam will go and the faster i will reach summer.

Today tony and i attempted to max out on the bench press. Tony got 195 and was very close to 205 and i got 225 and 235 was right there but i was stuck and tony gave me a tap and then i finished it. Tonight has been pretty crazy. Tony and i spent the night listening to either classical or lady gaga as we studied away. But rob came in and then all the focus was gone. Shouting matches were started and well i had to leave the room.

Birthday Weekend!!!

Lauren's birthday is today and things are crazy, with a k.....krazy. But not really but kinda of. I finally got my internet finder to find lauren's internet and now i can write to you. Umm i arrived friday aboutish the time lauren parents arrived from Green Bay. They smelled of Packers and Cheese. But anyways that night we went to this men's choir concert, pretty cool, and then just hung out at the Super 8. Yeah i slept on the floor, it was awesome.

Yesterday we did a lot. We pretty much went to random places like parks and walked around. It was super cold, and at one point we climbed up a ski jump hill and then it started snowing slash hailing on us. That wasn't cool. But after we got inside the V8 Hemi jeep we were toasty warm. We ate out twice once at a cafe for lunch and then i handed really old books one being 201 years old, and then we went to a grill and i had a steak. Every steak i eat is not as good as the ones i make.

Today was fun. Oh we went to mass yesterday night so we slightly slept in slash until nancy wouldn't let us sleep any longer which was like nine. Anyways it was super nice out today so we first went and filled up the V8 Hemi jeep with lauren's extra stuff and then we walked through Putnam park here on campus. That was super nice. After all that we headed over to Buffalo Wild Wings. I had this burger with lettuce tomato burger pulled pork and onion rings. Kinda crazy, but it was delicious. After all of that lauren sang for us at her concert and now im here because ill drive to la crosse tomorrow because i dont have tests until wednesday.

beautiful tom and nancy

Precious Moment With Suite Mate Rob Today Before He Leaves Us For Madison: Today i called tony to tell him id be back tomorrow, but im pretty sure rob answered. We chatted it was nice, but the entire time we chatted i wasn't positive if it was rob. Maybe my brain is just changing every one's voice to rob's. I wont see him ever again after five more days...

Soo Ever Soo Close

Rob and i were over at the open gym again doing back flips, but today we were on our own. Jamie's dad was in town so we didn't have a teacher. It was interesting. For the first half hour were just kept telling each other to do a back flip. Then we sat in the other room and literally every single person did a back flip or more while we were in there, and there were like 20 people. Soo we headed back and worked on them. I got it down pretty well, rob was in a mental block, but both of us couldn't get the form down. It just didn't feel right, but we tried.

Soo finished us some more classes today. Had the last theater appreciation, and last economics of the year. Pretty exciting stuff. Got to start studying soon for finals.... especially cause it's lauren's birthday this weekend. Sooo about, we have these things called "Hutch Bucks" hutch because of the dorm we live in, Hutch. But anyways at the end of semester we put these bucks that we earned for studying into a raffle, and win stuff. I won Lost Season 5, i will give it to lauren for her birthday. Wooo!

Tony Whispers In His Bed

As i type to you my beloved fans i can't get the tiny whispers of tony (my suite mate) on the phone attempting to have a private conversation in a room the size of many people's closet that has two other men living in it out of my head. Silly tony. Oh well. Soo we had a plethora of weather today. First off i wore a sweatshirt to my first class, bad idea it was super hot. It continued at that hotness for most of the day and i had my last sociology class today and then my last exercise science class after that. I then found myself on a scorching hot sand pit playing volleyball for an hour before headed over to the econ office to pick up five points of extra credit. Nice.

It was soon after this the weather started to change. As we walked to eat it was sprinkling. As we ate it was pouring out like super hard core. After we ate it was warm and dry as we walked to the dorm. Now its cool and raining. Crazy huh.

Final Push

Speaking of finals, i finally spoke with mother about her aging. Also this weekend of working is finally over, and the play is finally over. Wow craziness. I'm super hungry by the way. Today was pretty packed. I woke up at ten thirty thinking i was gunna go to church at eleven fifteen, decided it was a better idea to go at night mainly from an eating stand point. Sooo i went and got a hardy breakfast of eggs and hash browns, and then after re-doing some some on tiger woods PGA tour that got deleted when the game froze last night, i headed over to the Theater.

Today was the last day for the play, and besides missing my cue to make sure a girl did bounce off a mat when she falls, ever thing went well. I smoked the task of opening and closing the elevator doors. But since this was the last day we had strike after. At this point i was just mildly hungry but the work was just starting. So as i moved wood around in my nice black pants and shirt i couldn't get my father's voice yelling at me to get my nice clothes off before i ruined them. I dont think i did. But after unscrewing things for well three hours, we were finished and they gave a pizza, which was good because for the last forty minutes i was soo hungry everything i did made me light headed. But i was back here around six thirty with just enough time to change and head to church where i served communion. And last but not least, i studied first aid stuff while working from nine till midnight.

Precious Moment With Suite Mate Rob Today Before He Leaves Us For Madison: Rob had an extra short temper today. I dunno why but we was extra snappy. Probably because he's leaving us and will never see us again. Soon he will weep with me.

Mom, you're the best. Without you life wouldn't be much. You make me food, clean the house, talk with me, listen to me, pray for me, and are just there for me. I can vouch for all seven of us children, that you are the best mom ever, and sorry to all the other mom's, you totally own them at being mom.

Just poured my heart out to my mom there everyone. A little touching yes, a lot touching, more yes. Today i didn't really do anything much. The rec was closed for a AAU basketball tourny so that kinda blew my plans. I worked six hours and the other hours i was at the play. Pretty fun i guess. I just finished Gran Torino and i really liked it. I thought it was Clint Eastwood's best acting job yet. Dad i dont think you would like the language.

Just Me, Again

Yes that is right rob and tony are gone again. They are off gallivanting in rob's new home. That's ok though, that just means i get to have the room at my favorite temperature, sleep where and when i please, and watch what i want to watch. It could be worse. Soo, anyways by now whoever still reads this has read about my chem test that was today. Well even rob can agree with me it was the stupidest test ever. Like to be honest i knew how to do everything on the worksheets and in the book and got all the questions on the quizzes and homework all right. Anyways all im trying to say is that Professor Osterby makes these tests out of questions that don't even resemble what we do in class and it's beyond what he teaches us to know. Well anyways ugh.

So that really ruined my day for the most part, but after working out and playing basketball i felt a little better. I just hope i got an 80% or better. But my night has been pretty good. Zach beat me at tiger woods, but it was close and lauren and i have chatted on skype for pretty much ever and that was super!

It all boils down to this, oh and the final i suppose, but more so this instant this test. Pray for me....wait it'll be over by the time you read this. Oh crap.

Humid, that is the word of the day. Huge storms are on the way and so the air is thick. I just swam back from the bathroom to tell you. Today was a good day. I finally got to sleep in and didn't feel too tired when i got up and tonight i'll be in bed before midnight. Awesome! Classes are winding down and that's ok with me. We've all been pretty busy so i don't have any good suite mate stories. Except that we are all craving back flips.

Wipe Your Tears Away!

Today is was nice out. Sooo, im super pumped to sleep in tomorrow morning, plus on top of that i'm going to bed before one for a change this week. I dont like staying up late, but now that the sun is up for soo long it's like a sin to do serious school work before the sun sets. Only after can i get my brain to focus, except for yesterday.... but that was different. Here it is, i can do words while the sun is up but, i can't do numbers until after. I think that makes sense.

Had my last CPR lab this morning. I made a sling and bandaged wounds. No mother they weren't real, but they coulda been. After that doo-dad i went over to chemistry where we learned.....osmotic pressure. Wow that took some deep thought. After learning that i had a little break that allowed for me to prepare a little bit more for my last economics test before the final. Luckily the lowest test will be dropped so besides the final my grade can only go up. I like that. The test didn't go too poorly but it definitely could have been better. A lot of hmmm's and i wonders. I survived though. Oh and all of this was after Walter gave us the history of the world wars and i think i literally saw his mind blow thinking about existentialism.

160 And Counting!

Wow, a regular day turned into a crazy night. So today was very norm. I had classes, i ate lunch, i had more classes, and then i was done with them. The nice part about tuesdays is that im done by two ish so i get a long afternoon. First off to blow off some steam i played a little tiger woods. It went well. I then made a batch of tony's coffee. It was terrible. I dunno what i did but it was like eating dirt. Not cool, but while i drank it i studied economics for and hour and a half, long study of the year! I was proud so i came up stairs and went to eat with rob, tony, and courtney.

After all that jazz i returned here, just for a bit though before i went to Wentz, my new home of next year to help make a banner for welcome week next fall. It was, interesting.... the theme is classic movies, so ours is Wentz Side Story. Get it? But any who i came back here studied some more for econ, did pretty well and then the crazies happened. We all started talking in indian accents. It was super fun, and then zach came in and told us not to mock other cultures and rob asked him to please leave our room, but in an indian accent. It was really quiet odd. It might be the water, but i think we're just losing our minds. Only two weeks left.

Rob wasn't here, well he is now, but tony and i had a good time. Today was pretty uneventful. We slept in kinda and ate some breakfast and then sat around and did homework. I was pretty productive during the play also. Finished a paper and got started on another. Cool beans. Now tonight we went to mass and then continued work on my paper and skyping with my parents.

The Draft Is Over

So it's all over. The Packers have again succeeded at drafting a completely weird bunch of draftees. And i think everyone will be interested in this little tid bit. This is exactly what goes through Ted Thompson's head on draft week, "hmmm i really like to make people confused and angry so ill just pick people that no one has really heard of and maybe draft a bunch of position that really confuse people, yeah that'll work." I'm pretty sure it's something very similar to that if not exactly that. But overall i think that Ted is trying to sure up a d-line pass rush. Cool.

Today was a pretty good day. I finally slept in until noon for once this year, but tony and i were chatting until four in the morning. After that we went and got some food with a bunch of the guys and then tony went golfing while i sat in our room and worked on a paper and watched stupid things on the tv. Soon it was time for the play again. The play being "the play" which is an actual play that i help with. Tonight was especially nice because i was able to cover for a girl that had to go home. I totally got to give someone a goblet and open a door for the same person but later on in the play. Crazy stuff.

After all that i scarfed a sub on the way to the gym where we played basketball and now after chatting with my dear sweet lauren i an eating tostitos and blogging.

A Weekend Without Rob

This is something, a good preparation for next year really. Rob's gone and tony and i are still alive after ten hours. I'd say that's a good sign. Today was nice, i like fridays. I only have one class and i get to sleep in on top of it. After that i just get to do what i want. I try to do homework but i usually just get sick of it. Fridays are not meant for homework. So i worked a little in the afternoon and then tony and i went and had a great workout. We did all sorts of stuff and pretty much got ripped. Then tonight i had to help out with the plays opening night. Good stuff. Wow this night is getting off to a fast start.... After all that great stuff tony and i played basketball. I owned at make it take it. And finally just recently we went to kwik trip and now are eating tostitos and drinking chocolate milk.

They Stole My Blood

I was walking down the hall yesterday when a strange man slammed me against the wall shoved a needle into my arm and filled a bag with my blood and ran off. I liked it. Well it didn't exactly go like that but my blood was cruising but then BAM it stopped so the dude stripped the tube and well it actually sucked the blood right out of my arm. It was fun, and i got pizza, oh and i saved three lives.

It has come to my attention that i have been very lazy with my blogging, which really means that the one day rob actually reads it i didn't blog the day before. Well all i have to say is that i have been really busy helping with the play, but well being there that is. I don't really do anything during the play except sit there wishing i was more productive. Ahh cuss.

David Lemon is pretty awesome. I don't know what I'm going to do without him next year. Hopefully he enjoys his time at UNI. I am hoping that I can take some time out of my busy schedule as an RA in Wentz to go visit him. Perhaps Zach and/or Cory will want to join me.

Men In Black

Soo, im working back stage on the play right now on campus for extra credit in my theater appreciation class. I get to dress and black put props on a table, fill a bucket with water, watch a girl fall on a crash pad, put a rain coat on a guy, and make a globe glow. Pretty crazy stuff i know. I'm enjoying it a pretty good amount and now hopefully tomorrow since we've got the groove down ill just get a bunch of homework done while im there.

But besides the play things are pretty normal. We did a bunch, correction i did a bunch of lifting today, and all three of us biked up the bluff today. It was pretty awesome except for the guy that we saw coming down that passed rob and tony on the way up (his second time...or more) and then we saw again finishing a third time or more since we had arrived. But classes were good, i like tuesdays i'm done super early. Oh and i signed up for my fall semester next year. It shouldn't be too bad i hope, but i'll be an RA so it will balance out.

I'm working right now. Ugh. Its two twenty four in the morning and i really want to be asleep. I just finished playing a bunch of neopet games to raise money so i can feed my neopet. It's pretty adult stuff. But all my friends just left and im here all alone and suddenly hungry. Which reminds me of a story. A Jimmy John's delivery man just showed up awhile back, and after about two phone calls and five minutes he decided he would sell the subs he had to the guys in the study. I had Kaitlyn whoever she is doesn't get too upset.

Today was pretty slow, and fast. I helped put up flyers in the residential La Crosse so people would know that there is a marathon down their street. Then i played some basketball with Zach and some of his high school teammates. I was really happy that Zach totally lit them up and really didn't miss anything. After that i had to work my first shift from three until six and then i lifted some weights and came back here and watched the nba playoffs and waited until now, when i work.

I'm All Alone

My friends have left me. Here i am just me sitting here and as i sit i watch, what i watch you ask, well i watch movies. I have done more than just that though. I went golfing today, didn't do well, well not that bad, but could have been better. But after those four hours of craving hot dogs, i went to work for three hours. I made seven pizza's there, all of which were amazing. I'm humble about it though, but i know inside that these pizzas im sending out into the world are just awesome and amazing and well i want to just eat all of them, but i dont get to. It makes me sad.

Hate to break it to you all, but tomorrow will be another day.

Just Some Old Fashioned Sunshine!

Wow was it ever nice out today! Only issue with this that i would like to discuss today is the lack of sun-days. Now i know the name is already taken and used for our sabbath but perhaps we could work around it. Maybe Shiny-day would work..... but that doesn't matter unless these days are approved. Now as we all know very well, they have created a thing known as a snowday. This day was created for when it snows too much and getting to school is unsafe. That day does not really help my argument but the next one does. This day is called a Cold-day. This day is made because going outside could has you physical harm. Well a Shiny-day is pretty much the opposite of that in two ways. First off going to class causes you harm, and second that harm is psychological. Students should be forced to go outside and enjoy the extremely nice weather and not damage their brains by tearing their thoughts between school and play. Just something i think should be considered, and perhaps could save america from its obese ways.

Don't worry mom, i went to all my classes.

Holy Hill, But Not The Place

Yeah, so today after class i decided to bike up Grand Dad's Bluff. Wow, my respect to lance armstrong's biking was super increased. It was a big hill, and besides that my bike wouldn't stay in low gear, so once i would get in a groove it would pop up like a bunch of gears make a bad noise and halt my progression. But i made it and looked down upon the valley and small people below that had no idea someone was watching them. After chatting with Jake, a guy i met on top, i headed back down. Much Easier.

Today we went out and practiced our back flips in the pit on a gymnastics pad. I couldn't do them. I kept getting scared and twisting once a got in the air. It was not good. But tony and rob were doing pretty well. Soon we will be without spotters and pads....

Back Flips!

Literally, we did back flips today. Earlier this year i told you about the once in a life time opportunity for college children to attempt to kill themselves on gymnastic apparatuses. While this chance has come around again, and will continue twice a week for the rest of the year. Well today was special. Tony's bday was on sunday and he asked jamie, our residential gymnast, to teach us to do back flips, and she did. That's right, back flips!

So yeah as you now can guess everything else was pretty crappy besides that. Class was boring, the test i dont want to get back but i really do was given back, and it was kinda cold out.

It's Starting That Summer Camp Feel Again

So besides the fact that we have to go to class and do homework and take tests and stuff college is starting to feel summer campy again. Now I know that we still have a lot of time left in the semester but I really like when it's nice out. You aren't stuck inside and when you need a break you can go biking or on a run or anything better than staring at the wall. Plus I can start workin on my sexy tan.

Today was super beautiful and for one reason only , it's tony's birthday. We did really celebrate or anything but that's ok he got older anyways. But the day was great I slept
in and late mass was good father had a great homily so that was super. Lauren still here so I get the floor. Robs not that into cuddling I guess.

What Beautiful Weather We're Having Here

Sorry everyone i forgot to tell you about my yesterday. I'm just even sure why i didn't. I meant to very much so, but i guess it just slipped my mind and now i have no idea what all those great ideas were. I know i took a chemistry test, which didn't go how i wanted. See i want to just know everything and get done in ten minutes, but instead i was hesitant about way too many things and i felt i knew the info but didn't know the test as much. Ahh die another day. But after that i did something.... Oh i came back to here and worked three hours as rob and tony headed off to neverland slash green bay. Tony's bday is tomorrow so he wanted to go home and rob was returning a car. Oh well. So that evening i didn't really do anything. I went to lift but the gym was closed so just shot around but ended up playing two on two with three random kids and the one was really lazy and ticked me off because he's the one that asked me to play. Oh Cuss.

Oh i remember what happened that was soo exciting, i went golfing! It was very fun. I golfed a 52, and considering that i was using someone elses clubs and i hadn't touch a ball or club all year, i'll take it. I was pretty jacked after i landed the first hit on the green . It was a 182 yard par three and i took out my four iron, well zach's four iron, and landed it right on the green. I was like dang i'll take that. Now at that point i knew it was just going to go all down hill, but i held my self together and golf a pretty good round.

Anypoo sorry about the long entry but i guess a lot happened. Sooooo today lauren decided to come on down and visit me. Awesome! We're having a great time, but before she was here, i opened up at the front desk and played a game of Quidditch. Yes i said it, quidditch. No we didnt have brooms, but it still was awesome even though we lost in the first game. We didn't really have a very good team....but after crying for a few moments lauren was here to cheer me up and we ate some subs. After an afternoon of lauren doing her homework and me cleaning the room real nice, we went out to dinner. We went to Applebee's. It was pretty good, but the steak wasn't as good as the one i grill for myself.... oh well it was cheap good and lunch tomorrow!!!!!

and im not diggin it. But classes were pretty good. I can now give chest compressions to adults, kids, and infants. Awesome. It was hilarious watching the beastly three hundred pound man give an infant chest compressions with his two fingers. What a goober. Then i learned lots about electron orbitals, and wished i had another week before our test on friday. After that i had a cancelled class and we celebrated with an afternoon bball game with some hutch residents. I was draining. Finally i went to econ with rob and just had a great time drawing graphs.

Today when tony and i were playing ping pong there was this little mamma squirrel carrying her baby squirrel around to a new nest. We also thought perhaps it was a crib robber... we were just like the crocodile hunter but with squirrels and we aren't dead.

But there is a dorm where the placed the oven under a smoke detector and the had like twenty false alarms last year. Ha!

So anypoo today it really rained and it rained all day and it was terrible. I got all wet i was cold, i got all wet. Ugh big downfall to college, whatever the weather you are going to experience it. But today wasn't all that bad in the end. Class was easy, i got a 94% on a test, and it was good. Also i played two hours of bball and lifted weights soo im beat.

Easter Is Over...

April fools! There are like forty or some holy number of days of Easter. So there's lots of time to celebrate! I'm back here at school, and for the holy weekend i was down in Madison with Lauren's family. We had a great time. I just chill with Uncle Larry and make goofy jokes about most everything, and Uncle Dan had a great bear story. Let me just say it had to do with a grizzly bear rush and wolves.... wow. But all that fun is over and we're all back at school. It's rough man it's rough.

I know it started a long time ago but today is the start of the celebration for me. I'm down in Madison where lauren's distant family is congregating. I hitched a ride with a random person via the internet, and here i am for only five bucks. Not bad. Today was ridiculously awesome outside. Sunny and like almost 85 degrees. I love when the high schoolers take tours on days like that because campus is crawling with people. Like literally every green space is covered and everyone is doing active things and the little kids (me last ear except i didn't do an official visit) are like holy crap i want to be in college, you dont go to class you just play games and its always sunny. April fools.

Stop! It's Seder Time!

Tonight at Newman while rob was gallivanting around for the newspaper, my suite mate tony and i attend the Seder meal. This meal is a traditional Jewish celebration of the passover. We always do this at home, which i guess is pretty rare and i was even questioned if my family was under the stone Jews, which we are not, but anypoo. So it was super fun. We did everything pretty much the same except this meal was more developed to be like what a Jewish family would do now, unlike the one at home where we attempt to copy the practices of our ancestors on that passover night. So whatever and then some, the moral of the story is that tony and i have a super fun time we sang in Hebrew and got to eat delicious food. The catch.... we were forced to eat horseradish, straight up.

Tony Plays Guitar With His Mouth Open

Oh im sorry people, if your still there, i didn't blog yesterday and my rule of thumb is once the comp is closed for the night it isn't reopened. Keeps be from staying on faceboook all night. HA! So anyways rob's really been doing some hardcore (pun, you'll see in a sec) abs in his bed before sleeping lately. I think it just looks funny. So yesterday, tony and i were in the cube wars event.... know your roommate. Intense stuff. So we were dominating, knowing each other like the bottom of rob's foot until one terrible stupid question. What brand name does roommate "B" have? Now im roommate B and i immediate cry out in pain. I know we are done for. What backpack brand do i have, well its Mountain Smith. I dunno either man.

Tonight was the Iron Chef event. Eric really stepped up and brought it all, well all that we needed for third place. He hollowed out some oranges and filled them with ice cream and put shredded orange peel and caramel on top with orange and banana slices around the plate. Looked real good, but came up short. Oh well were still up by ten. We got this in the bag.

Work Aholic

Better than an Al.... man am i funny. Yeah so i worked a lot this weekend considering i hadn't really signed up for that many hours. I covered two on friday after work 12-3 that morning, and then worked 9-12 sat night and 3-6 tonight. Sooo what is that... like eleven or somethings, plus i cleaned this really nasty pizza oven for another hour in there soo, yeah money in the pocket... slash out the other pocket into UWL's pocket. Darn colleges. Most expensive thing of my life soo far, and sadly probably not the last.

Today was nice out. The sun shined and college basketball disappointed. I really wanted Baylor to win and Tennessee well that was just another disappointed. Oh cuss, my mind just hit the wall and now i can't remember anything about my day except these few words. Palms, basketball, work, pizza oven, chain reaction, family.

We're watching a very old western dubbed and all and its awesome. The music also doesn't make any sense for the movie too, it's like a weird eights elevator music genre. I'm enjoying it very much. Today was a good day and this is a good end. I didn't do too much today. I was awakened by lauren because she forgot she was an hour ahead when she's up at her cabin....on break. And i just kinda sat around until one before i headed to the gym to shoot around and lift with tony. After all that i watched Butler reach the final four and then played ping pong while watching my championship team lose. Oh well. Finally after another round of basketball with my friends i returned here eating a pizza and drink Mountain Dew.

And The Dreams End

Another year of Cinderella Stories comes to an end as the dreams of players and fans fall in defeat. St. Mary's one dimensional game was figured out and Baylor crushed them. UNI gave it there best effort, but fell short to a well coached MSU. Why they didn't shoot a three with 19.6 seconds to go when down by six im not sure, but what's done is done. I enjoyed the runs and dreams even though they totally ruined any chance i had at winning money or even respect. So i will dream of marches to come.

Today was great. I only have one class on fridays and in that class, chemistry, we just learned out solar panels... sorry Mr. Kurkowski, but your panel only runs with 12-15% efficiency. Anypoo after that goodness i watched a stupid 80's movie enriching my knowledge of other times in America, and then rob, Soup, and i hit the greens for a tour of the back nine at Petibone. It was real wet but we managed out way around without losing any discs and after a plus five first hole my shoulder warmed up and i didn't do too bad.

My wonderful suite mate tony stayed up late with me tonight playing games as i worked until three in the morning. What a guy, is all i have to say. But before all that goodness i had a day, a day you all tuned in to hear about. Well it was pretty good. Started out with my waking up at ten, good start i know, but then i fell back asleep and woke up two minutes before my class. Oh cuss, but don't worry mom im not paying thousands of dollars to skip classes so i jumped from my bed literally and got on my bike and sped over there arriving only three minutes late. Not bad. I marched right in front of class to my seat in the front. It was good except my body pulsating the first ten minutes from my heart which was in shock from the morning events. But after all that the day was good. Classes were short and i learned i got a A/B on my Econ test. Cool.

Her Uncle Ray Is Baptist

Yeah, that's right Ray Lauren's Uncle is a baptist. No, dad you aren't confused that had nothing to do with anything, but perhaps the fact that i didn't blog yesterday and you are thinking you missed something. No nothing was missed. But yesterday i beat zach at ping pong for the first time this semester. Yeah sad i know, but really i beat him quite a lot last semester, but lately i've been on a small tear beating tony 9 times recently and only losing like 4 or 5. So im pretty happy about that, its a good time. But oh yeah yesterday i reached man hood... now im guessing most of you are thinking, but pete the long beard you've had since kindergarten marked your man hood, but really i've just reached it in the weight room. I put up 225 with ease, but needed at tap on 235, so pretty much i go over two plates. Nice.

Today i had an econ test, and i think i did well, but every time i think that i end up doing poorly, soooooo im hoping not. Anypoo today was a bit cooler than yesterday but i just slipped into a complete sweat suit outfit and enjoyed my day. Umm on and tonight there was Eucharistic Adoration at the Newman Center, and it was great. Tony and i went and bathed in incense and just loved Jesus.

Signing My Life Away

Tonight was the contract signing night for all the RA of next year where you can literally feel your life being poured through a pen and rolled onto a piece of tree on a tiny ball. It was fun though. I finally met with the new staff and they seem like a bunch of fun and the hall director seems great. Plus i have the bonus of working with Josh who lives next to us now. Overall im pretty much all the way excited and nervous, but mostly excited.

Today was great because it was soo warm. Well maybe not soo but i told tony it was 35 degrees out because the internet told me and its always right, but really it was probably already 45 and later i was told through rob that tony hates me.

Oh Cuss It Wasn't A Bad Dream

So i was hoping for the last few days that my reoccurring dream that i had to return to school was not true.... but it was. So here i am again, stuck at school. But there is one cool thing.... new bubbler. It's the coolest bubbler ever. So its a regular bubbler in the lower region, but the back and top are beyond. Along the backside is a sensor, and when you put your bottle up against it and press the button, a purified stream of water fall and fills it up. There is even a little screen that tell you how many bottles have been filled total. It's soo cool!

Madness is an understatement for the tourney thus far. It's just out of control and i love it. Sure my brackets are suffering, but i love it anyways!!! You know you live the life when your watching a game on tv and two love of your computer and they are all nail biters.

SPRING BREAK!!!

Hey everyone, sorry about the last couple days i just didn't blog, and you may be thinking, 'no kidding stupid idiot' and well that's your opinion, i'm just here to say im sorry and i will explain myself. Soo anyways after the haircuts everything just got wack. That night all of the hair in the trash bin in the bathroom crawled into our suite and started attacking us and fried out the wiring on my computer, so i haven't been able to blog and now that im home i have the family computer to explain why.

So yeah i got home last night and well it only took five hours..... rob thought we should take a little detour up to eau claire first and over.... it had nothing to do with missing the exit for hwy 21 and not noticing till we were 30 miles past it.... hmm my eyes were closed so i wasn't able to yell out in disapproval of his idea, but at least we did it on purpose.... So anypoo we got home about two hours later than expected but no biggie, to make up for the lost time the smith family did what every good american family would do, gather in the basement and watch the men lift weights, and then watch Zorro.
