The semester is starting to pick up with more work and a ton of reading, of course, but it's good. I like to stay busy, or else it gets pretty boring here. I have not really made any new friends here, just the same ones from last year, minus the few that did not come back this year. It is pretty sad, but oh well, I cannot really do anything, I try to make friends with people but it just never works and I do not know why! I'm not a loner or anything, I have friends that I hang out with on the weekends and eat food with during the week and stuff, but they are the same as last year. There is nothing wrong with this, but I was just trying to make some new friends, especially guy friends. I have no guy friends at all basically, except my roommate Mark. It is kind of frustrating since I am always hanging out with girls because it seems like they are the only ones I can make friends with; except at this point it seems like I cannot makes friends with anyone, but whatever. I am still having a good time here, having fun going out on the weekends and stuff so it is all good. My friends and I have already had a few crazy nights that I will never forget, it has been a lot of fun.
I am missing home a little bit this year, I did not really miss it that much last year, but I am a little bit now. Not necessarily home, but family some of the people there and stuff. One friend here invited me to go to Lake Havasu during Spring Break. I know that is a long time away, but I guess I have to decide soon since the rooms fill up quick with people going there, I heard it is a crazy place to be during Spring Break, so I don't know if I want to go or not. I may just want to go on my little adventure by myself and use my free ticket to go to Boston or DC or something and just explore the city all alone, that sounds fun to me.

I Do Not Understand
I don't understand some things right now. Yesterday, I went out with some friends and we all had a good time for the most part. It seems like the topic of friends seems to always be the cause of my deep thinking and saddened moods. I went out with some friends again tonight; we walked all the way to some party and then I just had to walk back because I was not feeling it. I like them, they are nice people and most of them talk to me and try to include me in things and stuff, but then it seems like when I'm there with them I am just invisible. I know this is not true but that is what it seems like, there are some of them who are more friendly towards me than others and I appreciate it, but the whole thing just makes me sad. Even if I wanted to take a break from them and hang out with some other friends or something I would not be able to. I have a couple other friends that don't really hang out with them, but it is just frustrating. I don't understand why I have such problems making friends.
For example, I met this guy last year at this out of state reception thing. I see him all over the place, and he seems to know everybody, however he is just two-faced. Sometimes I will see him and say hi and he'll respond, but then other times when I try to say hello to him he just ignores me and looks at me like I'm stupid.
I consider myself to be a nice and friendly person, especially towards people I do not know, however I still can't seem to just make friends with someone. Also, like all of my friends are girls, I don't know why. It's really irritating I can't ever make any guy friends, my roommate is the one guy friend that I've made since all the time I've been going to school here in Flagstaff, it's really pretty sad.

Sophomore Year
I'm all moved in to my new room and had my first day of classes today, it was pretty successful. My new dorm is really nice, it's only like three years old so everything is still all new looking and stuff, I like it a lot.
Classes today were good, despite the fact that I had to buy over $100 worth of additional books; there goes my financial aid "refund". Today I had English, Accounting, and Sociology. Tomorrow I have English, Human Sexuality, and Economics, so it should be interesting.
Now I'm just in my room, on my bed, on facebook and twitter and thangs, bored. I'm sick of looking at facebook, but I have nothing better to do. I mean I could read for class, but whats the fun in that, I'll just save it for the night before, thats always more fun.

Post Birthday and A Reflection on Friends
My birthday was on Monday, I turned 19. I didn't do much, just hung out with my family and stuff, went to Red Lobster and tore up those delicious biscuits. Maybe I'll do something with some friends at a later date to celebrate, but then I think, "what friends?" Don't get me wrong, I have a couple good friends, key word being 'couple', but I'm just saying. Ethan has been my best friend for my entire life and we have times when we hang out lots, and times when we barely talk, but he is still easily one of my best friends. Jeanee is also a really good friend of mine, we have many memories from middle school all throughout high school and beyond. I'm glad we have remained friends for this long and know we will continue to be friends for a long time. Kayla is my "bestestestest friend ever" lol, but really. We have had our ups and downs, but always come back to our good relationship, even stronger. Even if we don't talk for a long time, we can just pick up right where we left off and it's like we just talked yesterday. Especially with twitter and facebook and everything these days, haha. Kelsey has remained a good friend since graduating high school also. Sometimes we don't talk, but we have random conversations every now and then, and since she moved to Michigan now it's evident she is a good friend since we still keep in touch. Stephanie is a really good friend I've made at school. I know sometimes she got on my nerves and stuff, but when it all boils down, she is a good friend and a good person. She sent me a birthday card with a drawing of Nicki Minaj that she drew. We always talk about her and she is a good artist and stuff and I didn't actually think she would draw it but she did! It is amazing, I love it.
I don't usually like doing things like these because then I feel bad people would be like, "I see how it is, you didn't write anything about me," or something like that, but I don't care. This is my blog, and I don't even know if anyone reads it anyways. I just felt like updating it so I feel like I am using it, and don't just have a blog sitting around that hasn't been updated for weeks.
Anyways, as I was saying, those few people are really the only people I've been talking to slash hanging out with this summer. Everyone else has either made much more friends in college or whatever and so we just don't talk much anymore, if at all. Or, busy with summer classes, busy with a significant other, or just too busy to text/call me back when I try to initiate a hang out. I mean one of my good friends didn't even acknowledge my birthday on Monday. I'm not letting it bother me too much, but I mean, if someone is more than just an acquaintance, you would think their birthday would be something you would know about; send a text, call, facebook or whatever at the least! Oh well, a lot of people wished me happy birthday through text messages and facebook posts. I was not expecting so many people to do that! I mean, I know it tells you when someone's birthday is, but still, and even the more reason it's kind of hard to miss people's birthdays these days. I was pleasantly surprised, and I had a good day.
Back to what I was talking about in the beginning. I don't know what I would do to celebrate if I did do anything. Not many people would be able to do anything though since they all have their own lives and priorities and such. So I don't know what I would do and with who is basically what I'm trying to say. I have been hanging out with KP in Seattle and stuff which has been fun. We're going to the Bite this weekend with some people I believe, so that should be fun. I guess we'll see what the rest of the summer has in store, hopefully some fun stuff before it's back to school time in August.

Summer
I haven't updated this blog in a pretty long time, but not much has really been going in on my life. Finals week went well. I got all As and a B in Fragments & Ruins, not too bad I guess. It was a crazy adventure getting back here to Washington. There were flight cancellations and $300 cab rides, but I did get to stay in a really nice hotel for free because we had to stay the night in Flagstaff, even though I only got to sleep for three hours. We were supposed to leave the next morning but it was cancelled again, but anyways, it's a long story. I made it back eventually, went to Prom with Jamie, and thats about it. I hung out with a few friends here and there, but not really a whole lot. The summer has been extremely boring so far. I want to go do something fun and exciting! However, that requires money, and that is why I am still searching for a job; no luck so far, but hopefully soon. I also started Insanity. Today was day three, and it is still kicking my ass, but I love it. I am sore all over, and sometimes during the work-outs I want to die, but I like it still. It is a love/hate relationship I guess. Today I finally got my check from Horizon, they reimbursed me for the money I had to spend on the cab ride, so today has been a pretty good day so far.
For this summer I just really need to find a job so I can save up some money, but also I want to go on a trip somewhere, I don't know if that means flying or driving somewhere, but anything. I mean I'm enjoying this nice break from classes and school work, but I mean summer is still supposed to be fun right? It hasn't been very fun so far, but things will change! I am being optimistic, I will have a fun summer.
This video is on point! Keri Hilson is lookin' fine too...but it is really sad.

Reading Week
This is what they call reading week, the week before finals. It has been pretty chill, not much to do but go to class and study for the exams next week. I have a project due today for fragments, and then a group project my group and I are working on for that class, but other than that all I have left are the exams. That group project is not even a group project really, but I am not going to get into that right now. I have been studying a little bit here and there, but nothing too intense, I'm not too worried about finals. Economics should be good since I have a high grade already and we can use our book of notes on the test. Religions should be alright, but I have to actually study for that one, we have a smaller group meeting thing tomorrow so that should help. Biology should be okay too, I made like seventy-something flashcards I have been studying with, and I know more than I thought I did so I'm pretty happy about that. Finally, accounting will be good because we have a take-home portion of it, so I can do well on that part, and then the in-class section should not be too bad hopefully, he rounds everything in the end too so thats good. Fragments I have no final thank goodness, just these dumbass projects that are a waste of my life. Oh, my lab is over too and we didn't have any final or anything, I had a B at midterms and I got it up to an A now so I am very excited about that. There are only three As in the class, people surprise me sometimes with how they do not take school very seriously, but thats besides the point.
Last week BSU had a bbq instead of going to Dave and Buster's because, well I don't know why exactly but its whatever. It was some good food though, unlike the black history month "bbq" by sodexo, it was a thousand times better because the advisor, Kevin, cooked and stuff. No more BSU until next semester now, and same with the step team. It is weird that this semester, this year is practically over.
This year went by so fast. Everyone always says to enjoy your college years or whatever because they go by so fast and stuff, and I never thought that was true, but now I know, I am already a quarter of the way done! With my time at NAU at least, I don't know what I'm doing after I graduate, if I am going to do more school or something, I don't know yet. I'm excited for next semester though, it should be a lot better than this semester, mainly because no fragments. I'm taking English, Accounting (the hardest class ever in the business school they say), Economics (either micro or macro, I can't remember which one it is, I have to take both eventually though anyways), Race & Ethnic Relations, and Human Sexuality (a one-unit class that is only the first five weeks, taught by my BIO100 professor I have now so it should be cool). It is only 14 units, as opposed to 16 units I had last semester and this semester. I guess its okay though, as long as I have 60 units by the end of next year. Also, I will be living with my friend in Aspen, a 24-hour quiet hall. Its better than having a random roommate though, even if we did have to choose the 24-hour quiet option (that was the only place left to live anyways), I talked to some people that live there now and they said its not bad. It is one of the newest buildings on campus so its really modern and just new! All the rooms have a ceiling fan, and its suites so our room and the room next with two suite mates (we don't know who they are going to be) share a bathroom, and everything will just be newer rather than older. Also, we don't get a key or anything to our room, we swipe our ID to get in, like a hotel! It is so cool, thats what I am most excited about. Just the fact that I will be a second year student and there will be new freshmen below me is also a reason why next semester/year will be better. I am however, going to miss the people that are not returning to NAU in August. I just started hanging out with this group of people pretty often, and a few of them are not coming back, but its alright I guess, most of them are, but it is still sad.
This weekend I need to pack. I have yet to pack anything, and Darwin is coming on Monday to take two (2) boxes of my stuff back up to the great Pacific Northwest. I am more stressed about that then finals, which is a good thing, I think. I don't think I have that much stuff, but I bet once I start packing I will realize I have more than I came down here with, but whatever. I need to figure out what I can pack and send with him, and what I need, and more importantly, will be able to fit in my two suitcases for when I leave next Friday. It is almost summer time!!! For me at least, it is less than a week away! Next Saturday I am going to Stadium's prom with Jamie. It will be interesting, the day after I get back, but I will have plenty of time to rest after that, a couple months. I have a feeling I will enjoy being home for a few weeks, but I think I will be ready to come back to Flagstaff way before it is time to move in in August, but oh well. I just need to find a job, I am still working on that, and just work a lot to stay busy, and of course hang out and party with friends and stuff, well, what friends I have left up there.
It is pretty crazy it is the end of April, almost May, and it is currently snowing here. It is extremely windy also, like 75mph gusts! I'm not sick of it or anything though like people (Darwin) thought I would be, I enjoy it. It will be nice to be back in Tacoma for a while though, and to drive.
Today, I won an auction on eBay for a coca cola edition of Monopoly, I am very excited. I won it for $10.51, and shipping was $10, so like 20 bucks, still better than prices in a store, and I doubt you would even be able to find a coca cola version in a store. I love monopoly; it is my life. I hope I can find friends to play it with when I get back, I guess I can get Shayla to play too. I also bought this book about reality television from half.com, I'm just going crazy buying stuff online, but its all good. I sold back the three (3) books I was told to buy for fragments. We only really used one of them, but I'm not going to get into that right now, it makes me furious. I got $39.50 for the three of them, and I bought all of them online for $30.95 (including shipping) so I made about nine dollars profit, not bad! Anyways, I'm finna go buy some coffee and consume it. It is seriously snowing like hardcore now, humongous flakes, gotta love living in Flagstaff.

Two Weeks
There are only two weeks left until finals. This means there are only two weekends left here in Flagstaff, this is exciting but sad at the same time. It is coming quick and I have a lot to do, both in classes and just getting things together to get ready to leave Arizona. I need to start studying this week for the exams because I need to do well on them. Luckily I don't have too much homework or anything for this week, and since next week is what they call reading week, we aren't supposed to get any new information or assignments and stuff so as long as I spread everything out as far as studying, finishing ridiculous fragments assignments, reading, and packing, I should be okay.
This weekend was crazy. Well basically just Friday night, and then Saturday night I just relaxed and rested, and today was the same just resting and getting a lot of work done. It was so much fun though, I am glad I didn't let anything hold me back and did what I wanted to do without worrying about other people; just being spontaneous, its what college is all about! So yeah, it was crazy fun, and thats all I am going to say about that. :)
Summer is really coming fast! It was nice again today, with a lot of people outside on the grass, playing ball and other various outdoor summer activities, it was exciting. We got a flyer thing about checking out of the residence halls too, so it is seriously almost time!
There is not much time left before I am back in Washington for a couple months, and then back here to Flagstaff in August. I'm looking forward to next semester; I am excited for my classes, living with a friend, and just being in my second year of college. Only two weekends left, and this weekend is the trip to Scottsdale with BSU on Saturday, but I also hope to have some fun again this weekend. Next weekend I will probably be finishing up packing stuff for my father to take back since he will be here next Monday. The next couple weeks will be extremely busy, but I'm not getting stressed, and I will have some fun.

Ready for Summer
It is finally Thursday. This week seemed to go by pretty slow, but I am excited today is Thursday because it is like my Friday almost. I only have my one religions class tomorrow on Friday so it is basically my Friday today. The week has been pretty calm, not too much work. The most work I have been doing is for stupid idiot fragments and ruins, which is so stupid. For religions, accounting, and biology, all I have left are the finals. I have my last lab of my life next Wednesday, and just a couple more weekly quizzes and stuff and the final for economics, so thats not too bad. However, then it comes to fragments, today we have to finish up some stupid poster thing (that was not even on the syllabus...at all) in class today, it is going to be such a stupid poster though, but anyways, and we were supposed to read an entire book for today, I didn't even finish the first chapter, I could care less, and we have a final journal thing to do where we have to write what we learned about every single reading we read throughout the whole semester, and finally a "group" project, which consists of drawing a ruin (note: this is not an art class) writing two 1-2 page papers and one 3-4 page paper, all individually...the only group-ness of the project is three times we meet and discuss shit, it is going to be so stupid, but oh well. Thats all of my school work left for the semester though, then I will be done! How exciting.
Last night the step team left BSU early to go down to the south fields to step. It was interesting. Someone said there was a stage, but when we got there, there was no stage. We had to step on this little strip of cement, so we couldn't really move around into our different formations or anything, but it was still fun I guess to finally do some kind of performance after over two months of practice.
Next weekend the BSU is going down to Scottsdale to Dave and Busters, so that should be fun. They are paying for a select few official members for up to $10 of lunch, and my name better be on that list because I have been to every single meeting, did my community service, and did all the stuff for my committee, and even woke up early on a Saturday morning and walked all the way over to the dome in the snow and ice just to find out it was cancelled and no one told me, but anyways, hopefully they pay for me.
I have to start packing soon too because my father is coming the Monday of finals week. There is a correction, my first final on Monday is religions not biology, and the religions one is not cumulative, it is just on Hinduism and Buddhism so thats good. Packing is going to suck though. Hopefully my boxes are okay still, they are in a big plastic bag at the head of my bed, I haven't looked at them since August so I don't know. The time is coming soon though, I can't believe how fast this year went.
Friday, May seventh is when I will be flying home. Then, the next day, Saturday, I will be going to Jamie's prom with her, that should be interesting. It is going to be weird being with all those kids that are seniors at Stadium now, but I'm just going to go and have fun. Hopefully there will be a fun after party to go to, well one funner than the one I went to after my prom at least. She said we are going to dinner and stuff with 22 people, including us; that is a lot of people. My mother found this summer internship/job thing for me in Seattle too. It sounds really cool, it is with the small business administration or something like that, so right in my field of study. The pay is really good too, and it would be fun to work in Seattle in one of those nice office buildings, and also getting experience in stuff that has to do with my major is a major plus as well.
My coach should be calling soon. She was here in Flagstaff last week, so it was cool to meet with her in person. I asked her to write me a letter of recommendation for this scholarship with the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, which reminds me, I have to work on that too. It is only $1000, but still, its money! Its a merit scholarship for new members, and I got a $1000 scholarship from some group/organization at NAU too, so that will be $2000 if I get the merit one too, cool. I don't know if I want to sign up for coaching next year or not though, it has been really helpful and nice to have her this whole year, but next year we have to pay, and its expensive, so I don't know about that yet.
I am bored now. I read for accounting, got some stupid stuff printed out for our poster thing, so I don't have anything else to do really, except read a stupid book, but I'm not going to because it is stupid. I'm just ready for the weekend already, and also ready for summer. It is starting to feel like summer here. People are starting to sit outside more, shorts and flip flops too. It is almost here, just have to keep going through this school work even though motivation is lacking in a big way.
Last night the step team left BSU early to go down to the south fields to step. It was interesting. Someone said there was a stage, but when we got there, there was no stage. We had to step on this little strip of cement, so we couldn't really move around into our different formations or anything, but it was still fun I guess to finally do some kind of performance after over two months of practice.
Next weekend the BSU is going down to Scottsdale to Dave and Busters, so that should be fun. They are paying for a select few official members for up to $10 of lunch, and my name better be on that list because I have been to every single meeting, did my community service, and did all the stuff for my committee, and even woke up early on a Saturday morning and walked all the way over to the dome in the snow and ice just to find out it was cancelled and no one told me, but anyways, hopefully they pay for me.
I have to start packing soon too because my father is coming the Monday of finals week. There is a correction, my first final on Monday is religions not biology, and the religions one is not cumulative, it is just on Hinduism and Buddhism so thats good. Packing is going to suck though. Hopefully my boxes are okay still, they are in a big plastic bag at the head of my bed, I haven't looked at them since August so I don't know. The time is coming soon though, I can't believe how fast this year went.
Friday, May seventh is when I will be flying home. Then, the next day, Saturday, I will be going to Jamie's prom with her, that should be interesting. It is going to be weird being with all those kids that are seniors at Stadium now, but I'm just going to go and have fun. Hopefully there will be a fun after party to go to, well one funner than the one I went to after my prom at least. She said we are going to dinner and stuff with 22 people, including us; that is a lot of people. My mother found this summer internship/job thing for me in Seattle too. It sounds really cool, it is with the small business administration or something like that, so right in my field of study. The pay is really good too, and it would be fun to work in Seattle in one of those nice office buildings, and also getting experience in stuff that has to do with my major is a major plus as well.

Buzz Kill
This weekend was such a buzz kill. I'm looking forward to this week though. The past two weeks have been extremely busy with multiple exams and papers, and other various homework and project deadlines that have come up. This week will be nice though, I do not really have anything to do except turn in an assignment tomorrow and a journal for fragments on Thursday, and then just trying to study and prepare for finals. Also, I have to finish up applying for this scholarship, I will be extremely excited once I finish that.
Friday was decent, but not the best. I didn't even stay up that late on Thursday, I don't think, but I woke up, turned off my alarm, and went back to sleep and didn't go to class. Its alright though, it was only one class, and it was religions, and I can get the notes from someone so it should be fine. I did absolutely nothing all day Friday, but in the evening I went out to dinner for a friend's birthday at Salsa Brava, it was good. The restaurant was featured on the Food Network on the show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, so it was cool to eat there, and it was very tasty. Later that night I walked in on my roommate...nasty. Then, later I headed out with the usual suspects, a bunch of girls (and a gay guy) from BSU, to this birthday party. She hyped it all up on facebook for the entire week preceding the party, but it was not crackin. It was at this community center place thats like a day care, there was posters of colors and shapes on the wall and stuff, it was pretty funny. After about thirty-five minutes of nothing she up and left her own party! She was heading to the after party she set up that was at this hotel a few miles away. After a while, we got over there and it was alright, but her party(ies) were not the business. We left the after party and went to some house party. There were so many people in there, it was so crazy, it took like five minutes to get through the door and actually into the house. It was funny. Anyways, long story short, we went to three different locations and they were pretty much all wack, but it was fun being out and off campus.
Saturday I didn't do much at all either, step practice was cancelled, as it was cancelled Friday as well. So I just hung out and relaxed. Then, this morning, Sunday morning, I woke up to my roommate and some broad in his bed giggling and whispering, and then before I know it he was on top, humping her. So I peaced out and went to a friend's room downstairs, I was furious. I have yet to be back to my room, except this afternoon when I went to shower and change clothes when I knew he was at church, because I did not want to see him, he made/makes me so mad. I have just been out and about all day. I'm going back up in a little bit though, to sleep...obviously.
This week will be nice though, I just have to go to class and be alert and I'll be good. I don't have any big assignments or exams, those were all the last two weeks, so I'm good. It will give me a chance to work on some more job applications and scholarships, and prepare for finals which are in three weeks. I am extremely excited for this summer, it is going to be the best. I will be working some place, a lot hopefully, and thats about it! I want to take a trip somewhere too, just by myself, so maybe I will do that once I'm done working for the summer before I head back here to Flagstaff and have some money, I'm not sure yet though, its still in the works, but I am definitely going to have fun partying and chilling with some people here while we are all back from college. Just this week, one more week after this week, and then its reading week, and then the week of finals, and I'm out of here. My dad is coming the Monday of finals week though to take two items of my stuff back because he can't come and fly back with my on Friday, when I'm going back, so I have to fit packing in there sometime, but thats tough. I can't start packing too early because I need the stuff, but if I wait too late it will mess me up, so it will be a chore, but oh well. Maybe he will take me to go eat somewhere Monday night ;) hehe, just kidding...kind of. That Monday is going to suck though, its my first final, biology at 7AM! Absolutely disgusting. I'm looking forward to next semester though, I am pretty happy with my schedule, and am going to have a roommate I actually like. However, we will be living in a 24-hour quiet hall which is pretty lame, but I've heard its not too bad there, and it is one of the newest buildings on campus so that is definitely a major plus.
Not much else has been going on lately, because, like I said, the last two weeks have been extremely busy and a lot of work. In most of my classes, I only have finals left to worry about, but of course thats not the case for fragments. I don't want to get into that right now, but that class sucks, and I cannot wait to be done with that class for good. This weekend is going to be sick. I am extremely excited, I don't even know what exactly I am going to do, but I know it will be fun. I'm planning, along with a couple other people, some stuff to get into so I am looking forward to it.
All you niggas is my sons!!!

MASSIVE ATTACK
Well this week is almost over, and I am very happy. Even though I will not be going home or anything for Easter, I am still happy. My test Monday went alright I think, I do not know what I got yet though. Last night I stayed up until three writing this stupid paper for fragments, I am just glad to be done with it, I am turning it in tomorrow. Now I just have to finish off the week and hopefully have a fun weekend. Then, next week, the main things I have is biology and accounting exam, and accounting assignment for Thursday. Better than a bunch of papers like this week was, so it should not be too bad.
It is supposed to snow tonight/tomorrow...snow in spring. The weather is crazy, but I like it. It was nice this last weekend and the beginning of this week and then TODAY it was hella windy, like twister status. The weather should be interesting, and I'm looking forward to doing something fun this weekend.
TODAY, BET premiered the new single from Nicki Minaj, Massive Attack. It is the first one off her own album, and personally I like it. I don't think it is as good as some of her verses on other tracks, but the beat goes hard, and the video...the video is real nice. Amber Rose has a cameo too, and I like the dancing in the jungle and the guy with the crazy shoulders...I don't want to give too much away so watch the video after the jump!
We got tom toms over here bigger than a monster!

Crunch Time - Five Weeks Left
It has been quite some time since my last post, but that is alright because I have been busy. The break was nice, but it is over now and it is time to get back on my grind. This week is extremely busy. Today I had my religions exam, it went pretty well, I hope I did alright. It did not seem as hard as I was expecting it to be, it may be because I studied more for this one than the first one, or maybe I just completely bombed it all the while thinking I did well; hopefully it is the former and not the latter. Tomorrow an accounting assignment is due, Wednesday an extremely stupid biology lab paper is due (which I just finished so thats good, it is literally just a bunch of bs, but oh well, he is a terrible teacher, there were like no guidelines for it so he cannot complain), and Thursday a 6-8 page paper for fragments is due. So far I am all caught up with stuff, just have to write that stupid fragments paper; I cannot wait to be done with that class, I seriously despise it and dread it every Tuesday and Thursday.
There are only five weeks left in this spring semester, including this week, and then its the week of finals and my summer vacation starts. I cannot wait! I am going to find a job, my coach is helping me with my resume and cover letter for valet positions, and maybe some at some restaurants also. I want to work a lot so I can save up some money, but I also want to have fun. I want to go and travel by myself, maybe go on my solo Boston adventure that did not happen over spring break. Who knows, it will be a nice long 3+ months though.
This weekend I have to make my schedule because next Tuesday, the sixth of April, is my time to register for classes. I am very happy I took the AP Calculus exam and got the four units for it because I get to sign up for classes for next semester a whole day earlier than a lot of other freshmen, so thats good. This weekend I also get my time to apply for housing for next year, hopefully Mark or I will get lucky and get an early time so we can get in either McDonald or Raymond and be able to room with Kendale, otherwise we will have to live in Gabaldon, the suite style dorms, and I would feel bad leaving Kendale hanging, but yeah. I am supposed to try and fly home the weekend of the 18th also for my cousin Angela's wedding in Gig Harbor. I want to go and do not want to miss it but I guess it depends on the flights, as of right now I would be alright missing class the Monday after that Sunday the wedding is on, so hopefully nothing changes. Everything is going on right now, but I am not too stressed, just staying focused, even though the motivation for some stuff is lacking I am still good. I have been working out some too, not too much, I went two times last week, and hope to go at least twice this week also. It is hard to find time to go, but I guess something is better than nothing. I have to get in shape for summer! Get my tan on and everything, I am excited.
Oh, last weekend was so boring. I stayed up until 4am with Joy and Antoinette doing nothing really, eating skittles and drinking rockstars but thats about it. We had step practice at 12 the next day too, but surprisingly I had no trouble getting up. It was so boring though! We could not even find a party to go to or anything. Hopefully next weekend is better, there are only a few more weekends left here in Flagstaff, I hope they will all be fun and exciting. Maybe even as fun as the weekend before spring break, but I am not sure, that weekend will be hard to beat.
They say you eat a lot more or maybe just more unhealthy in college, but I have noticed I eat a lot less when I am at school than when I am at home. I guess it is a good thing, but not all the time. Yesterday I barely ate anything, maybe it is the stress suppressing my appetite, but I don't know because I don't really feel stressed, but I don't know. I am still drinking coffee though, that is for sure.
Our step performance is coming up on the eighth, it should be pretty exciting. Hopefully someone video tapes it so y'all can see and everything.
This semester, well actually, this year has flown by so fast it is crazy. When I first moved in here in August, May seemed so far away, and now it is just around the corner, five weeks away! I am both happy and sad, but mostly happy. I am already almost done with my first year of college. Next year I will be a second year student, a sophomore, and there will be new freshmen here, BSU will be different, classes will be different (like they are every semester, but yeah), friends will be different, and it is inevitable I will grow further apart from friends back home, but thats alright. I have family, and new friends, and I know my real friends will still be there like KP and Ethan and such.

Back
Spring Break was pretty fun, but now I am back at school in good 'ol Flagstaff. It is actually pretty nice today, most of the snow is gone, just big piles where they shoveled it in the shade and stuff. I could even go to the hotspot in just a t-shirt, it almost felt like summer, almost.
Spring Break 2010

Visit grandparentsDRIVE DRIVE DRIVEGo to the coffee bar down the street from our house...numerous timesPurchase and play DJ HeroGet my hair lined upGo to Fred Meyer at least a couple timesVisit and hang out with friends that are in townWatchThe Crazieswith KPVisit friends/party in Seattle- Maybe go to Garlic Jim's
I actually did most of the stuff I wanted to do, which wasn't much, but it was still fun. I mean it was only a week, and it went by fast. It was nice to get away for a while, but it is nice to get back, I live living on my own; this summer will be interesting to say the least. Hopefully I will be able to find a job so I can just work work work all the time and save up.
I flew into Phoenix and then my friend picked me up and I stayed at her and her mom's apartment. Later that night she had to take her mother to the hospital though so I was basically there by my self most of the time. My friend, Olivia, didn't even sleep, she came back around six or seven this morning to take her contacts out and get stuff and then went back to the hospital. Hopefully she will be okay. So I got a ride with Megan and her family from Olivia's apartment, and now I'm here, back in Flagstaff.
It feels nice being back, I was ready to come back. There is just six more weeks of classes and then finals week and then I will be done with my first year of college, crazy, it has gone by so fast...seriously.

Ready
I am ready for Friday to be here now. I did not think I would be this excited to go home to Washington for spring break, but I am. If I were going to school in a bigger city, I bet I would not be that excited to go back to Washington, but Flagstaff is pretty small. It would be better if I had a car, but I am getting to know more people with vehicles so it is actually getting better. There is just not a whole lot to do like there is in a bigger city, there is still fun stuff to do though. The Monday after spring break I am going bowling with BSU, so that should be fun, I have not been to the bowling alley here yet. Then, in April, we are all going to the new Tyler Perry movie, I do not know which one it is, but that should be fun as well. The weeks have gone by fast, and the day after tomorrow I will be heading back to the great pacific northwest. Then, when I come back, there is only six weeks left, and then finals, and thats it! I am excited for the summer, especially since it starts in May.
I had the best idea when I was in the shower today. When my sister and I are in Portland, hopefully we can stay the night at my cousin's house so that we can hang out in Portland for a bit on Saturday before we drive back up to Tacoma. While we are in Oregon I am going to buy DJ Hero, it is perfect since there is no tax, I am so excited now; I will be able to save a little bit of money. Also, I got a ride back up to Flagstaff from Phoenix on Sunday morning so I get to stay in Tacoma until Sunday, well Saturday basically. Now I will have a little bit more time to do more stuff, whatever it is I am going to do. So far I have that Saturday planned, well the first part of the day at least, I don't know what I am going to do that night. Sunday I think I will visit my grandparents and do whatever else. Monday, KP and I are going to see The Crazies, unless Maddie and John come back later in the week, then maybe we can wait for them, or maybe not. The rest of my break I don't know what I am going to do yet, well I have an idea, just not the specifics. I need to go up to Seattle sometime too, maybe stay the night up there with friends and get my shirt that Red and Vanna made, I am excited to wear it here in Flagstaff. I am pretty excited to just to be able to sleep in my own room and stuff though, a nice break from having a roommate for a while should be cool. I am excited for next year though now that I have someone to room with. We are going to try and get into one of the apartment style halls, and those have three people in each apartment so we would just have to have a random one for the third, but that is not too bad.
My midterm grades are posted, I am satisfied; three As and three Bs. Not as good as last semester, but still good, and I have time to get some of my grades up.
The past couple nights I have been watching gymnastics and tumbling for hours and hours, I really miss it. I want to get back into it. I think next semester I will join the gymnastics club, I wanted to last semester, but I did not really know anyone with a car, and the gym is off-campus a little ways so it would not be fun to walk. That would be fun though, to at least do some tumbling.
I do not need to go to my econ class today so now I do not have anything to to until my lab at 4:10; I am bored. I do not really feel like going back to my room. I guess I will work on some homework and get ahead so I do not have to do everything Sunday when I get back to Flag.
I still cannot get over how fun last weekend was. The best way to celebrate the weekend before the week before spring break. It was so much fun! I hope there will be more weekends like it after spring break, I have a feeling there will be ;) especially since I got a lot of numbers and more people have my number now as well. I am really enjoying the step team too, it is fun and also something to do and keep me busy.

We are going to try and get into one of the apartment style halls, and those have three people in each apartment so we would just have to have a random one for the third, but that is not too bad.
My midterm grades are posted, I am satisfied; three As and three Bs. Not as good as last semester, but still good, and I have time to get some of my grades up.
The past couple nights I have been watching gymnastics and tumbling for hours and hours, I really miss it. I want to get back into it. I think next semester I will join the gymnastics club, I wanted to last semester, but I did not really know anyone with a car, and the gym is off-campus a little ways so it would not be fun to walk. That would be fun though, to at least do some tumbling.
I do not need to go to my econ class today so now I do not have anything to to until my lab at 4:10; I am bored. I do not really feel like going back to my room. I guess I will work on some homework and get ahead so I do not have to do everything Sunday when I get back to Flag.
I still cannot get over how fun last weekend was. The best way to celebrate the weekend before the week before spring break. It was so much fun! I hope there will be more weekends like it after spring break, I have a feeling there will be ;) especially since I got a lot of numbers and more people have my number now as well. I am really enjoying the step team too, it is fun and also something to do and keep me busy.

Weekend before Spring Break '10
This weekend was by far the best weekend I have had in a long time. It was so much fun, I really enjoyed myself. Friday I went out to the club with some people, and that ended with some girls fighting and then some dude punching some girl in the face and then two guys fighting. There was a braid on the ground, along with some random articles of clothing when everyone cleared out of there, it was pretty funny though. It was messed up what they were fighting about but it was a cool night. Then, Saturday it started me being fifty minutes late to step practice, haha opps. After that it was pretty boring and it felt like a waste of a day as I was sitting with some people trying to find something to do that evening. Luckily, we found a party to go to so we all met up and walked over to the lobby of this other dorm. There were a whole bunch of people and it was all chaotic trying to figure out rides, I did not know any of the other people, but they seemed cool. The group I was with went in two sections, a bunch in this one car, and then me and three other people in this other car. This girl who lives on the second floor of my hall drove us there and back, so it was cool. It was at this house not too far away, there was a lot of people but it was so much fun! I met another guy named Trevor, he had a tattoo of "Trevor" on his leg he showed me, it was funny. I met a lot of other people too, this random girl we met in the kitchen she pulled these things out of her purse, so ghetto, but we had some still, it was funny. We just had fun, and thats all I am going to say about that. Our ride was leaving at one so we left then, we didn't get there until about 10:30, so we only stayed for about two and a half hours, but it seemed way longer than that, it was weird. Of course right at one am it started snowing like crazy, and we all left our jackets in this girls dorm on campus cause we didn't want to have to carry them around and stuff, stupid idea. It was funny though, I was slipping and sliding all up and down the street running to the car, well we were trying to find where she parked for a few minutes. It is like this little car and we had five people in the back seat and then driver and passenger, it was nice and warm with all those people. I chilled for a little while at these people's dorm and then I walked back to my room and fell right asleep. It was the most fun I have had up here in Flagstaff in a very long time, and now that I have went out with them this weekend, we can have more fun after Spring Break and before you know it, the semester will be over!
Speaking of Spring Break, I am heading back up to WA on Friday, I am very excited. I got a ride down to Phoenix, and now I just hope the flight I am shooting for does not fill up, I have a back up plan in case that happens, but hopefully I will be able to get on the flight I am planning for, it will make things a whole lot easier. I am excited to see my family and friends and stuff, so it should be fun. I also plan to buy DJ Hero while I am home too and play that a lot. I cannot wait, this week just needs to go by fast like the last three-four weeks have. I do not have any tests or anything so thats good, I had my two big exams last week. I did good on my accounting one, like I mentioned in my last post I think, so I am just hoping I did well on my biology exam as well.
This is what I want to do while I am home:

This is what I want to do while I am home:
- Visit grandparents
- DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE
- Go to the coffee bar down the street from our house...numerous times
- Purchase and play DJ Hero
- Get my hair lined up
- Go to Fred Meyer at least a couple times
- Visit and hang out with friends that are in town
- Watch The Crazies with KP
- Visit friends/party in Seattle
- Maybe go to Garlic Jim's
I may have to add some stuff later in case I forgot some things, but these are the things I can think of off the top of my head, so I have a busy week. It is not even a full week, but I am not going to think of that, I am just going to enjoy myself and appreciate even being able to go home. I am looking forward to it all.
I just like this song.

One Week
There is only about one week left and then I'll be on my way back up to the pacific northwest, how exciting! It feels like I haven't been there in forever, but I know once I walk in our house it will feel like I never left; it is not necessarily a bad thing, but not really a good thing either. It will be nice though, to see the family, Stella, and of course the friends there, even though a lot of them will still be in school. I will still be visiting them though, I don't care if they have homework, or exams or whatever, it is alright, I know how you feel.
Anyways, my days are pretty long. Today I had my biology test, I think I did alright, I could have studied more, but I just could not get myself to study any longer than I did last night. After that I went to the hotspot, which is the all-you-can-eat dining area, and got some breakfast/lunch. Then to Starbucks to get some coffee and read for accounting. Speaking of accounting, I'm doing really well in that class. We got our test that we took on Tuesday back today and he posted the grades, I got a 96%, I was extremely happy. The other people I was sitting around were talking about their grades and they didn't do as well I guess, but I'm glad they didn't ask me what I got, well they did but then I started talking and I don't remember what I said, but I didn't tell them my score. I have always found that awkward, when people ask your score and you know you got better than them. It is not so bad when its just a one-on-one conversation with one person, but when it is to a bunch of people in a classroom setting it is weird. Anyways, after I was in Starbucks for a couple hours I went to fragments and ruins, and then to accounting, and then a meeting for our group project, and then to my room to change, and then to the field house/rec center for step practice, and then to pizza hut for dinner, and then back to my room to put our project together and submit it online. And then and then and then and then, haha, but it was seriously like that, non-stop! I'm glad I only have my one class tomorrow and then a nice long break until step practice at five, then the weekend begins!
Hopefully I can find something to get into this weekend. Some people were talking about partying or going out this weekend, maybe I can join them. I do not want to be one of those people and invite myself, but you know. If I can't find anything to do I'll probably just end up going to Starbucks a lot and maybe the store or something. I want to see The Crazies! I really really want to see it, really bad.
I'm just going to relax tonight, I do not really have anything I need to do for tomorrow, and not much homework this weekend, so that is good.

Good Weekend
This was a pretty good weekend. Step practice is going good and its fun, I had that on Friday and then I just chilled, it was pretty boring night. Saturday was better though. After practice it was the black history month closing bbq and it was fun, even though the food was kinda nasty, but it was alright. There was double dutch, spades, and other games and stuff, and I got a few t-shirts that are pretty cool too. Later that night I hung out with a few people and watched Friday and played some cards and stuff until 3, it was fun. But you know who is always there to be a huge debbie downer. She got pissed about cheating when we were playing cards, like she was really getting upset, it was so stupid. We were just having fun, but no she always has to take everything so effing seriously and its highly annoying. But I'm not talking about this anymore, I already vented about it through other means so I'm alright.
I got my two exams this week, they should go alright hopefully. For accounting we got the first 25 question to take home and do, so we only have 50 more on Tuesday so thats nice. I just need to study for biology on Thursday and I should be good.
I finished The Mirror Effect and started The Last Day of My Life, so I'm pretty happy. That is a short one so once I finish that I can start my new Dean Koontz book I got for Christmas.
Hopefully I'll be able to go to Washington for Spring Break, I don't know though because the flights are so full, but I'm going to try. I need to see people! I also need to get a fresh line-up.

Quickly
The weeks are going by so quick these days. Last week went by really fast, and so is this one; its already Thursday! Things are going good. There was a BSU meeting today, well yesterday technically, and it was good. After part I of that workshop they are starting to do better with everything. Some people on BSU even started a step team, I'm bout to join. Thursdays they work out at the field house, so thats a good excuse to force myself to exercise, and then Friday and Saturday they have step practice at this one guy's lobby of his dorm. It should be pretty cool, they might ask if I've ever done anything like it before and I can tell them about Mysterious Kutz from Stadium, haha, maybe I can even show them our youtube videos. Saturday is a BBQ, free food so of course I'm going, free t-shirts also! It should be fun, there is going to be music, games (spades), and even double dutch! Also, for us loyal members, they are taking us down to Scottsdale on some Saturday in the end of April for an end of the year trip. We will be going to Dave & Buster's and eating lunch and playing games, it should be fun, I ain't played ddr in years! The group is doing much better now, and we are going to have a part II of the workshop also so that should be good.
I stayed up until 2am the other day writing this field report for Fragments & Ruins and I go to class to find out she moved the due date to like March 9th I believe, which isn't for two weeks almost! Kind of frustrating, but I guess its good so now I don't have to worry about it and I have time to do all my other work. Speaking of that class, on Friday I have to meet the TA at the Scholar's Corner, which is this coffee shop right inside, but outside, the library. I don't know what we have to talk about, the professor is just requiring us all to meet with her at least once during the semester. I will be getting my first formal paper for that class back tomorrow. She was supposed to have them on Tuesday, but she didn't finish a few of them and of course my paper was one of those few. That class ends at 3:35 and my next one is at 4:00 so I didn't have time to wait around for her to finish grading it like some people did, so I've been waiting all this time to get it, I am extremely anxious to see what I got. She has been giving mixed reactions, she says we did not very good, but then she says we did the best out of all her classes, so I don't know. I hope I did alright, and she give us a few things we can do to raise our grade a whole letter and a half so thats good also, I'm hoping I got at least a B though, but I really have no idea since every professor is different and that class is so uninteresting to me. Anyways, I have an accounting exam on Tuesday and a biology exam on Thursday, and our group project for econ is due Friday. Things just keep going and going, but I'm not too stressed out or anything surprisingly. I'm excited for Spring Break, even though I don't even know if I'll be able to go back to Washington, hopefully I will. Usually the days and weeks leading up to a break go by slow, but they are doing the opposite, and thats good!
According to my calculations, my tax refund money should be in my account by Friday. It said I should have gotten it a couple days ago, on Saturday, but then the IRS website says they do refunds of Friday's so I'm thinking Friday I should have about $100 more which is very nice; its like $90-something but whatever. My copy of The Rocket Summer's new album Of Men and Angels should be coming soon also. It came out on Tuesday, so I pre-ordered online form bestbuy because it was free shipping, and it was only like $7 or $8 so I was extremely excited, and I can wait, I'm patient, and I like getting packages. Hopefully it comes before the weekend though so I can listen to it. The songs that were released before the album are really good and I really like them so I think the entire album should be great. He hasn't come out with a new album in a few years now, so I am extremely excited. The last new release I was this excited about was the Dashboard Confessional one that came out sometime last semester; I remember running to Target just for it, and I got the last deluxe edition there!
I'm almost finished with The Mirror Effect. I have been trying to finish it for some time now, but I really only have time to read it on the weekend because of all the other reading and such I have to do for classes.
I have been spending quite a bit of money on Starbucks lately, much more than last semester. I'm using the cool mini gift card Ethan got me for Christmas and just reloading it online. By doing so, I'm also earning stars for each time I use them and you get different rewards for different levels you get to, its pretty cool! However, looking at my bank statement online I see all these transfers I made to put money on it and I add it up in my head and then I shake my head at myself, but oh well! I enjoy coffee and other various drinks, whether it be a venti iced coffee, grande americano, soy chai, or regular coffee with cinnamon dolce, these drinks are a necessity! I think it was Monday this week I didn't get anything at Starbucks, I was proud of myself because I had the urge, and a slight headache, but I didn't spend anything at Starbucks that day.
I don't know why I'm still up. It is currently 2:05am and I have class at 9:35am. Last night I went to bed somewhat early (for me at least) and it was harder to get up, and I didn't have class until 10:20am! When I stay up and go to sleep later its easier for me to get up in the morning, I don't know why. If I'm tired thats okay though, because tomorrow I'm getting my iced coffee, just like many other days, but thats beside the point.
Oh yeah, my father e-mailed me this. I guess some of his co-workers made it because they saw me on some big billboards and stuff at Sky Harbor down here in Arizona, and then sent it to Darwin and a bunch of other people. Its pretty funny, and it is cool we are both at the airport.
I talked to my cousin today, it was cool. We don't talk that much, but she texted me some today to tell me that it was FFA week or something, future farmers of america, haha. She said they had llamas, turkeys, chickens, and all sorts of farm animals on campus; only in Sequim. Later, she called me but I missed it and so I called her back and we talked for a bit, but after I hung up I had a voice mail and it turns out she accidentally called me while her phone was in her pocket or purse or something because I could hear her talking with her friends and getting in the car and driving and stuff, it was pretty funny. She was probably all "Trevor's calling me? Huh?" lol, because that how I was when I saw she called me, but yeah, it was funny.
There is still a ton of snow and ice around, I be slipping and sliding all over the place, its fun. I like it here.
I'm upset the took the My Chick Bad video down, that is SO rude, I went to watch it one day and I saw it was removed and I was highly upset. Why don't they want us to see it? I'm not deleting that post though.
Happiness is a song by The Fray that I enjoy a lot. Its nice a smooth and calm, and I like it. I forgot about it for a while, until one day I was listening to my zune on shuffle, all 7,187 of my songs, and then it came on, it made me remember and it made me happy.

Finally
I finally got my hair cut today! It feels so nice. I went over and got it cut after my religions class, all through the snow and everything. It was snowing all night I believe and continued throughout most of the day, but now it has stopped I think, in fact, I think it is sunny now. How weird, but the high for today is 25 degrees still.
I did not have any coffee/Starbucks today, the only thing I had was this cappuccino powder mix stuff in hot water but thats not coffee. Hopefully I will be able to make it through the day today, I don't know though because I kind of have a headache now, but I'm trying to not have any coffee today.
I don't know what I'm going to eat for dinner tonight, maybe the hotspot, I don't know. I have to finish writing yet another stupid paper for fragments & ruins today too, it is so stupid. We just turned in our 6-8 page paper last week, and we haven't even gotten it back, and now we have another one due this week, it is ridiculous; not fun or exciting or interesting in the least bit at all. I also have to do my accounting assignment that is due this week. So I guess this week is not that bad, but still, fragments & ruins ruins everything. Next week however, I have a biology exam on Thursday I believe and an accounting exam on Tuesday. I just want to get the stupid paper done for that stupid fragments class, and then I will feel better.

Fast
This week went by super fast, tomorrow is Friday already! Just my one class, religions (which we are now done with Judaism and now onto Christianity and Islam), and then its the weekend. For once I don't have concessions to do or anything, so I can relax and recover from the week and prepare for another tough week full of work. Tomorrow is also casino night, I'm excited. I'm trying to win some of the prizes, they have a 50"HDTV, a 360, a kindle, and some other stuff they're raffling off. I want the kindle! They look so cool, and I'm feeling lucky! (Even though I lost all my chips playing poker with kp on facebook this evening, but oh well.) It should be fun, and hopefully I can win something. ALSO, Friday is my day to catch up on my shows that aired that week, The Real World DC and Celebrity Rehab 3, I am extremely excited to see them.
Not much else has been that interesting. One day this week I was at Starbucks, well I'm there like everyday but yeah, this time I got a venti iced coffee. Well after I paid for it, the barista called a vanti raspberry iced coffee, and thats not what I ordered so I continued to wait. After a while I went up and looked at the raspberry iced coffee and looked at it, and then we, we being the barista and I, realized, well I guess she realized, she made the drink wrong! The lady that took my order asked if I wanted room, and I said yes, and I guess she put the 'R' in the syrup box on the cup instead of the custom one so she put raspberry in it. While I was waiting for her to remake my drink I tried the raspberry iced coffee and it was SO NASTY! I thought it may taste good, but it was absolutely disgusting. Anyways, that was like a highlight of my week. InterVarsity was pretty nice tonight though too.
Anyways, not much else is going on. Just a lot of work with classes and stuff; tons of reading, papers galore, and group projects. My life is pretty boring and uneventful lately, I have nothing else to mention...maybe I'll do something fun and crazy and exciting this weekend.

After a while I went up and looked at the raspberry iced coffee and looked at it, and then we, we being the barista and I, realized, well I guess she realized, she made the drink wrong! The lady that took my order asked if I wanted room, and I said yes, and I guess she put the 'R' in the syrup box on the cup instead of the custom one so she put raspberry in it. While I was waiting for her to remake my drink I tried the raspberry iced coffee and it was SO NASTY! I thought it may taste good, but it was absolutely disgusting. Anyways, that was like a highlight of my week. InterVarsity was pretty nice tonight though too.
Anyways, not much else is going on. Just a lot of work with classes and stuff; tons of reading, papers galore, and group projects. My life is pretty boring and uneventful lately, I have nothing else to mention...maybe I'll do something fun and crazy and exciting this weekend.

The Week
The week has started. Last weekend wasn't very eventful, I kind of even forgot about Valentine's Day, it doesn't really matter though, that holiday doesn't matter. I had to work concessions on Saturday and Sunday. Originally on Saturday I was in the second group which was to come at 11:30 and stay till the end, and then Sunday come at 8 and leave when the second group comes. Of course, the second group didn't come until 4, so I was not happy at all. I was there working, for free, for over eight hours! The other times the first group got to leave when the second group came, but then the second group doesn't come till hours later, so stupid. I barely got to eat anything because of the fact I was there all morning and day, so when I finally got to leave I, of course, had a huge headache. Not to mention I still had my paper to write so I was a little stressed. However, once I left the skydome I went and got a sandwich, and then some coffee while I sat in Starbucks and wrote my paper. It only took about five hours, I still can't believe I was in there for so long, but I would not let myself leave until I was finished. Once I left at about 10pm, I still had to study for my religions exam I had this morning. So last weekend was not very fun.
Now the week has started, I think I did decent on the Judaism exam, hopefully, and am done with the paper I have to turn in tomorrow. I still have some stuff to do for my biology lab but it shouldn't be too difficult. Just when I thought things were calming down again, I find out we're supposed to read this entire book for the stupid Fragments & Ruins. It isn't like the other book we had to read which was thin and had a whole bunch of pictures, no, this one is 309 pages of text, boring text too probably. So ridiculous! I guess it is going to be a while before I get to finish The Mirror Effect and my other books I want to read for myself.
I'm getting a little tired of living with a roommate, especially one that is pretty messy. It is just a little annoying, well, as you can tell by my other post, it is getting really annoying, but whatever, nothing I can really do about it. When you live with someone for an extended amount of time you're bound to find a number of things that you find extremely annoying.
On the bright side, poetry night put on by BSU or whatever, is tonight, so that should be nice. I really like the iced coffee at Starbucks, even without anything in it, it tastes good! On the brighter side, Spring Break is almost here, in a few weeks. I'm a little sad I don't have any big, fun, exciting trip planned, but I might just go home to Tacoma depending on the flights.

Apollo Night
It was pretty cool, Keedar Whittle was funny too...I wouldn't recognize him though. I do however remember him from Hell Date. Only one performance got booed off stage, they didn't even deserve to either, it was these Hawaiian guys singing and one of them was playing the ukulele, they were good but the people didn't like it I guess; lack of culture. Anyways, it was fun.
The weekend is here after my one class which is a discussion session this week, just have to turn in my paper and hear about the exam on Monday. I don't really have any plans for the weekend though, other than after hours tomorrow with a chainsaw juggler and other stuff, working concessions, and a whole bunch of homework. I really need to cut my hair though, it is seriously way too long for me and it is getting extremely annoying.
Luda's flow on this track is crazy!

Roommate Frustrations
Living with a roommate has been okay, but lately I've been getting extremely annoyed with it. I don't know what was wrong with me last night but I was tired! I fell asleep on my bed with everything around me at about 9. I woke up thirty minutes later and my roommate was getting ready to go to the gym or whatever, so I cleaned up and got ready to sleep (extremely early) while he was gone. It was like 10:27 when I went to bed, or at least tried to. My RA knocked on my door three minutes later at 10:30 but he was gone by the time I was going to open it. I was almost asleep when I hear the key in the door. My roommate comes in and turns on the light and tv, and he could clearly see I was in bed. The tv was loud too! I was not too happy, he watched his south park and other shows on comedy central, so as I was trying to sleep all I could hear was those hella annoying voices on that stupid show. Long story short, I didn't sleep till about 2am, I was just laying there from 10:27 until then thinking about everything I have to do this weekend getting more and more stressed out; not to mention I was mad about not being able to sleep when I was trying to. I'm just getting sick and tired of living with this roommate, I think it would be different and at least a little better if we were friends...but we're not. I don't mean to complain, but I'm going to. He never cleans the sink, I ALWAYS have to even though he leaves his hair in there when he shaves so its pretty nasty. I even left it there a few days hoping maybe he would clean it...but nope. Not to mention he's just messy, ugh! I guess it could be worse, but this is still pretty frustrating.
When I leave for class in the morning I usually bring everything for the whole day so I don't have to go back to the room. I just sit around in Starbucks (like I am now), or around in the union and do homework on my laptop or read or whatever.
Anyways, I just needed to get that off my chest. Tonight should be fun, after the rest of my classes and meetings, its Apollo Night, I'll let you know how it is later.
I'm writing this as I'm walking to class...I just slipped on ice.

A Little Bit Stressed
I was a little bit stressed today from all the work piling up. I just got two exams out of the way, biology and accounting, and I did well on both so thats good, but then other classes have a bunch of stuff too. Thursday I have my weekly journal due for Fragments & Ruins, and today she assigned our paper that is due a week from today for that class, my paper on Judaism is due Friday and the test is Monday, and I have to get working on this econ project with my group. Originally I was planning on playing cards with some friends this evening, but I figured it would be best if I stayed home and worked on my paper. It was hard but I'm glad I did it, I worked on my religions paper all night and now I'm done, and finished the stupid journal entries also. I always have to complete my work at least a day in advance if I have to print it out because I don't have a printer and so I have to print it out down at the business school, its been working out alright so its all good; I got like 200 pages of print credit on my account for this semester, so that should be enough. Now that I finished a chunk of my work I feel much better. I guess I'll be spending most of my weekend writing the other paper, after the concessions on both Saturday and Sunday that is. The paper has to be 6 to 8 pages and the prompt is this: What is a ruin? So ridiculous, but whatever, you gotta do what you gotta do. I haven't talked to my coach in two weeks! I feel off balance. I'm excited to talk with her this week.
Some people really irritate me, even people I don't know. At our last discussion session for religions, the TA said about a thousand times to NOT send e-mail to this one thing that says FRI (cause we meet on Fridays), but to go and select her individual contact, or else the message gets sent to everyone in that discussion section. Still people continue to send her messages the wrong way so I keep getting messages form people that are to her and it is highly annoying, PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN and its really an issue. Also, what makes me extremely annoyed is when I actually do the reading and then we do not even talk about it in class. I had to read this whole book for the stupid fragments & ruins class today, it was pretty small and had a lot of pictures but it still took quite a bit of my time nonetheless. So when I get to class she just spends like the entire time talking about our paper because she forgot her book and has all her notes or whatever written in her book, how stupid is that, wasted all my time reading that book about art and we don't even discuss it, very irritating. I guess it is alright since now I've already read it and don't need to spend much more time going through it or anything but still!
Anyways, I'm having a good week here in week five; I am one-third of the way done with this semester, it is going by pretty fast. It feels different than last semester though, I guess just because I'm a lot more used to things now than I was last semester when I first got here.
Apollo night is Thursday so I'm looking forward to that. This week is going by fairly quick it seems. I got the book I compulsively ordered online, The Last Day of My Life, I'm excited to read it once I complete The Mirror Effect. I can also take the test in the appendix of the book to find my NPI (Narcissistic Personality Index), it should be interesting. I want to get some other people to do it too to see how accurate it is and stuff, maybe I'll call KP and ask her the questions over the phone since she never did it in calculus last year. The Last Day of My Life is a pretty short read, maybe I will finish it in one sitting so I can then start on my next Dean Koontz book. I've been eating a lot of oranges lately, I get them when I get a sub or pizza or wherever else they have them, I forgot how good they were! It just takes some work to peel it and stuff and it makes my hands look ashy and smell like oranges, but it comes off easily.

Another Busy Week
I had an alright weekend, I didn't do much. Sat in Starbucks for a while as usual, I got to read quite a bit of The Mirror Effect, its really interesting. Had the normal annoyances and such with you know who. I hung out with Olivia and Amparo a lot too because Megan went home to the valley for the weekend. We played cards and did random stuff, it was fun. I guess I give good foot massages, haha, its one of my hidden talents I guess.
This week I have a lot to do: reading for classes of course, quizzes to complete, write a paper for religions, Apollo night on Thursday with Keedar Whittle (that should be cool). As for the weekend, Saturday I have to work concessions from 11:30am-4pm, and then Sunday I have to work concessions from 8am-12:30pm; not looking forward to waking up so early Sunday morning, but oh well. They are just track meets, no one goes to them so its pretty slow, it was really slow at the last one so we got to close up early, and at least I will still have the rest of my day/night on both days to do stuff and finish homework.
I don't really have anything else to write about since I have not really done much the past couple days. That needs to change. I'm going to try and just do whatever and have fun, and stop worrying so much about Stephanie, even though that sounds harsh, but seriously, there needs to be some changes.

Change of Plans
For Spring Break 10 I don't think I will be doing anything spectacular after all. All the hotels I found require you to be at least 21 to check-in, and so I guess it would be smarter to save my money. I'm going to buy DJ Hero for my 360 though because its really fun and I like it, but thats less money than those few nights in a hotel. I may just stay in Flagstaff for the week, the flight out and in to Flagstaff will most likely be full from other students who purchase tickets to fly over spring break and I don't want to have to use more of my father's positive space tickets because I feel bad. I still want to do something though. If I find a job I guess I could work a lot and stuff, but thats if I find a job. Maybe I should go apply at some places off-campus, I could be a server somewhere, that would be fun. Just like the good 'ol village green days. Spring break is only a week anyways so it would be weird to go up to Tacoma for that short amount of time. I would just go down to the valley and visit KP, but she had to move back to the Pacific Northwest a.k.a Tacoma area, so thats sad; that would have been fun! I think I've decided I'm going to stay here, it will be extremely boring and dead on campus, but whatever. I can find stuff to do, I'll go on an adventure, but in Flagstaff instead of Boston, haha. I'm going to buy DJ Hero over the break I think though, if not sooner, so I'm excited about that.
I don't know if my roommate is going to California for the break or not yet. I'm going to sleep now even though its pretty early for a Friday night, its not even two yet! I have nothing better to do though, and someone is really irritating me. The BSU community service for Saturday morning is cancelled, they sent out an e-mail Friday night at 11:30pm letting us know, psh. She texts me asking if I saw it and I said, "yeah figures...oh well." That group has been known to be flaky in the past, its just how they are and its whatever. How DARE she turn around and accuse me of being negative and not listen to what she says. Um okay, really? I have always been known as a good listener and stuff, and positive about everything. Sure, I complain a little bit about stupid assignments or a class I don't like, but its not really serious and nothing compared to her complaining. All she does is talk about herself, all the effing time, seriously! "Oh everyone around is happy in a relationship, blah blah blah, I want a boyfriend, blah blah blah. Its even more annoying because she does it in person, and then complains about that same stuff, plus more, on facebook; just extremely irritating, making it seem like shes trying to get people to feel sorry for her. She can never be wrong about anything too. If I say she said this, then shell be like, "no, I said this" and change like one word. She just likes arguing, but I refuse to argue with her so I just quit texting or start being quiet.
Like a good friend said, "Just relax and don't worry cause shit really doesn't matter." This really is true, even my coach said something similar, well not really similar but I was telling her about the class I didn't like (Fragments and Ruins) and she was just like, " Just give it your best and stuff but don't stress about it, cause in the end its just a class." That is very true its just a class and shit really doesn't matter in the end.

"Ok well y dnt u try leading a conversation in the direction u want it to go and maybe we could avoid those topics that are bothersome to u. Sound gd?"That is the message I got back when I told her she talks about herself a lot. Wow. Even the way she texts annoys me; thats bad. Its just amazing how she can just push all my buttons to make me so frustrated I just don't know what to do sometimes. I guess thats why I have to write it out here, and if she sees this so what, I don't care. I'm too nice. I am going to start saying exactly what is on my mind next time she talks rudeness to me, if I hurt her feelings oh well, every other little thing hurts her feelings anyways so it doesn't even matter. I'm done getting all worked up about her and her bull.

Good
Things are going pretty good now. I got my biology and accounting exams out of the way, and I think I did pretty well. I still have a lot to do; reading, and papers to write, but things are going pretty well now. At my academic advising appointment I figured out classes I'm going to take next semester and stuff and I'm pretty on top of things so thats exciting. Also, she encouraged me just to take English next semester, I need classes to take anyways because I don't have that many I need to take other than ones for my major cause I got a lot of the general requirements out of the way last semester, and this semester. Originally I was going to take English online during the summer just because I hate it, but she convinced me to just take it next semester. It will take up some units I need, and it will be cheaper than paying for the summer class, and when I thought of that I came up with a GREAT plan.
Since I was going to take English online during the summer, it would, of course, require money to pay for it. I was planning on using money I have saved up in my savings account and what not to pay for the class. However, now that I am taking it next semester, I will still have that money I was going to use to pay for it. So I have decided I will use my money to have a fun adventure on Spring Break! I am very excited. I need to figure out all the details of what I'm going to do and when so I can book the hotel and stuff. Thats really the only thing I will need to pay for, other than food, and maybe a pass for the metro and stuff, I don't know how much that is yet but yeah. I guess now I have something to do other than homework this weekend, plan my adventure.
The Super Bowl is this weekend, I don't really care about it. I mean I might watch it if I have people to watch it with, but I'm just tired of football now. Its basically all my roommate watches; espn, espn2, and comedy central. At least the stuff I like to watch I can watch online, or else I don't know what I would do.
I feel like the all the stuff I ever blog about is about classes. Oh well, that is my life right now, thats why I'm here after all so it makes sense.
Tomorrow I have community service to do with BSU at 10am and this food/kitchen place or something. If it is still on that is, I haven't heard any more details about it so I don't know where to meet or anything, but me not hearing things about that club isn't anything new.
I want to do something fun. I haven't really been doing anything lately, everything has just been same 'ol same 'ol, I need to go to a party or something because I'm bored! Oh well. Robin Thicke and Nicki Minaj were on David Letterman last night, it was cool. You can view it below in case you missed it.

On my mind
I have so much on my mind now! I just had my academic advising appointment thing and it was good, I'm ahead of the game. I had my biology exam this morning and it went pretty good, I think I did well. Now I'm studying for accounting before my fragments and ruins class in a few minutes.
I'm thinking about more exams and papers this semester, the idea of studying abroad, finding a job (for here and the summer), classes next semester, spring break, and everything! I need to calm down and focus so I can do well on this test, I wish didn't have to go to fragments but oh well. I wanted to update this right quick, and try doing it by sending an e-mail from my phone; pretty cool. I have to pee SO bad.

Jump Up In The Air and Stay There
Well Tuesday was a long day. I was gone for 11.5 hours, came back to my room for four minutes, and then left again for two more hours; the last two were fun hours though. I was up and down and all over campus going to class and studying and my bio SI session. Tomorrow is a busy day as well. I have my biology exam at 9:35, my early enrollment advising appointment at 1:00, fragments & ruins at 2:20, my accounting exam at 4:00, InterVarsity at 8:00, and my coach is going to call me sometime in-between there too.
I spent many hours this evening studying for those exams, and I feel pretty good about them so hopefully I'll do alright.
The weekend is almost here, I am so happy...even though I don't really have plans yet. Oh, actually I think I have to get up Saturday morning to go do some community service at this food bank with BSU, if they don't flake or anything.
I find it quite humorous that Lil' Wayne did a song with Erykah Badu after he was talking about her in A Milli. Listen to it! Its called "Jump Up In the Air and Stay There"
I was reading one of those small local papers thing in Flagstaff and found the classifieds for jobs and guess what I found?! A bartender position open that requires no experience, but you had to be 19!!!!!!!!!!! MAN, I was SO excited and then SO sad within like three and a half seconds.
Drinking coffee is something I enjoy a lot, tea is pretty good too, especially my 'Joy' tea I still have from the holiday season. Thirsty Thursday is tomorrow, well technically today, but its not till after I sleep and wake up again, and after I take my exams.

Major Week
This is one of the first major weeks with important stuff for classes. Everything is on Thursday, biology exam, accounting exam, accounting assignment, and three more journals for fragments and ruins; along with a bunch of reading to do. The reading actually isn't too bad though, and I'm actually able to read my books that I want to read for fun, I don't know how but I am. I really need to study for both of these exams though, I haven't really looked at any biology stuff outside of class so thats not good. I may go to this study session the SI is having though, that way I will have an idea if I know the stuff or not, I think I do though. Accounting 205, the accounting class I'm in, is known to be difficult too so thats a little scary. All the professors use the same exam though, so the one from last semester form my friend should have similar stuff on it so at least I will have that to study from; it isn't too difficult yet as long as I study I should be okay hopefully.
I think I'm developing a little bit more OCD, I don't know why though. Its nothing really serious, yet at least, just some stuff I've been noticing is some OCD stuff I know. For exampling, setting my alarm, I check it like eight or nine times. I have always done that, but I am just now noticing it I guess, I'm just scared it won't go off and I won't wake up, but whatever.
I need to go to the gym! I have only gone like once this semester, thats not good. I like to blame it on the weather that has been here, preventing me from going out there and stuff, but thats not really true. I just have not found good times to go I guess, I need to figure it out though, I ran a couple miles the one time I went there and then my legs were a little bit sore, I miss that!
The stupid campus coffee bean (that isn't even on campus) never got back to me about the job, so I'm still looking. Not as actively as I was a week or two ago since now classes have picked up quite a bit, but I am still in need of a job. I have issues! I was listening to a radio show that I regularly listen to and they had this guy, Jim Moret, on as a guest. He recently wrote a book entitled The Last Day of My Life, and of course he was promoting it and stuff. They were telling the listeners to go and buy the book, and what do I do? I immediately go to amazon to see how much they are selling it for, then I go to half.com and check out the prices there, and then compulsively order it. It should be here soon hopefully, but I just bought it, basically because they told me to. Now that doesn't mean I do anything and everything people tell me to do, but I have been reading a lot lately and am always looking for new books to add to my lineup. Right now I'm reading The Mirror Effect and then after I finish it, depending if the book I just ordered is here or not I will read that one next since its only like a hundred something pages, and then Strangers by Dean Koontz is after that. I never thought I would be reading for fun more often in college than in high school or anything, but I am, even though I have a ton more reading to do for classes and stuff, I guess its getting easier, which is good.
Spring Break 10 is coming up! Well, in March at least. I'm still trying to figure out what I should do. At first I was thinking about going to Boston for a couple days just for a fun adventure, I've always wanted to go there and I think I should make a tradition to go on some crazy adventure every Spring Break in college, I think that would be fun. However, John Mayer is on tour right now, and during the week of my Spring Break he will be in Atlanta, and the metro goes from the airport right to downtown ATL which is around the area he will be performing, so that could be fun too. Going to a concert by myself would be a little weird though. I may try and see if someone wants to go with me, but then they would have to pay a lot more cause of airfare and stuff so I don't know. I still have some time to figure it out, but I have to plan well in advance!
Taylor Swift, album of the year, really? I have nothing against her or anything, shes pretty cute, but she was up against Gaga and the QUEEN B, I do not agree. I didn't really get to watch it because my roommate was watching some other ish or something but I saw some of the performances, the Lil Wayne, Eminem, and Drake performance was pretty hot! Even though it was edited horribly, they muted it on words that weren't even bad words, but whatever.

Things To Do
I have some stuff to do for this week, assignments to complete, exams to study for, reading to do, but I don't know where to start. I'm just sitting here doing nothing because I don't know what to do. I just feel like reading my book, but I know I should do something for class so I don't have to do it all at one time.
This weekend went by pretty fast it seems like. Even though I didn't really do much it still went by quick.

The Weekend...
is finally here! It has been a pretty busy week, and it will continue to be busy weeks throughout February with Black History Month and stuff. Tomorrow is a concession stand for BSU that will actually be on, and not cancelled and no one tells me like the last one. I'm just excited to have some free-time this weekend. Even though I have a lot to do for next week and two exams and papers and assignments to work on, I'm not too stressed which is good I think. However, I do really need to go to Target. I need some healthy snacks, ones with no partially hydrogenated, or hydrogenated ingredients. I'm actually learning a lot in biology, even though we have to do some chemistry, the thing I was trying to avoid. It isn't too difficult though, its easier than I remember it in high school. Probably because we did way more in high school because it was an actual chemistry class, haha but oh well. I guess we will see on my first exam, which is Thursday, along with my accounting exam on the same day. Things are going well though for the most part. I got to read a lot of my book, The Mirror Effect, today in Starbucks, I was there for like three hours just reading, I didn't realize time went by so fast! I didn't/don't have anything else to do today though so its all good.
This is a cool video, I may like it just because it features Nicki Minaj, but it is still worth watching nonetheless. Mariah's husband also makes an appearance, haha, I thought that was pretty funny.
