That's right, I am an uber-nerd. But let me get to that in a moment. This past week/weekend was fun, as I expected. My class got over Thursday and much rejoicing was had. Work is beginning to get better, as the last of the major huge groups at ISU just left recently. Okay, that's about all of the boring stuff. This past Friday, I drove home ( Read more... )

Yes, I know it has been a fairly long time since I updated this thing, but with a mundane schedule of work and class, not too much new stuff happens. However, there are some worthy highlights. The 4th of July weekend was a lot of fun, as I was able to go home and talk with a lot of friends I hadn't seen in a long time. Good times ensued, as we ( Read more... )

Well, another week, another dollar paid by work and 3 dollars paid for classes... great way to make money, if you teach the class. However, I don't teach the class I'm in, given that I am not a hippie (it's a poli-sci class) and most of the professors were/are. Besides that, the class isn't too bad, just early (7:30). The work schedule changes, ( Read more... )

It's Sunday, and I've been reading some of my friends' livejournals/etc. It seems like everyone is having some problems of one kind or another. One thing I have just realized is the awesome power of our friends. I was feeling kinda down since I've been working a lot lately, and my summer class is starting on the 20th, but then I got a voicemail ( Read more... )

Alright, all my left/right friends, I have a proposition for you. The Discovery Channel is working on a list of the x-number of greatest Americans in history. Note that these people do not have to be born here, but have to have lived here for a substantial portion of their lives. Therefore, I would like to see your lists of the 20 greatest ( Read more... )

A short interview for my fans, or at least the people who don't not like me ( Read more... )

Ahh! It has been about forever since I updated this, but many good things (and some less good) have happened. Since the end of April, finals and friends have passed by, which is good and bad at the same time. I miss all my peeps so far away in (Decatur, Rantoul, general Chicago area north of Joliet, etc.). John Wilson is still here, and is my ( Read more... )

Well, the days since my birthday have been fairly eventful, but most of the events are class related, which is not nearly as much fun. Last weekend, though, I went to the circus with Emily, Tirza et al, which was much fun. Partying at Sandra and Nicole's after that, again, good times. Getting up at 5 the next morning, though... that was hard. ( Read more... )

Well, it's been about 24 hours, and I'm not hungover or still wasted or even regretful about anything that happened last night. It was an awesome time and everyone was great. We started at Red Lobster (by we, I mean myself, Coco, Ryan, Jenni, Sandra, Nicole and Sarah) and did the dinner thing. The food was good and the conversation was great. ( Read more... )

Well, I have finally seen the light. I had a sudden realization this morning that I have been wrong in my political thinking. I know now that President Bush is a liar and a horrible person. Conservatism is a joke that manipulates the people and is supported by a system of false economics that proves nothing. Upon this realization, I turned on ( Read more... )
