I priced my books for my one class this quarter. I only have one class and the books are gonna cost almost $200. My calculus book wasn't even that much, and it came with 3 study guides. Jesus.

For those of you who don't know the premise of a Magic: the Gathering game, you play a nearly god-like entity known as a planeswalker. Except, apparently in the Time Spiral block storyline, planeswalkers are no longer that powerful. Personally, I'd love to read those books, but not until I read the onslaught block books, and the oddesey block books ( Read more... )

Yesterday I got a call from the Anatomy and Physiology teacher at Big Bend. An opening finally appeared for me, which means I'll be starting school again on the 24th. This also means I get to delay any decision about moving to Arizona for at least 2 quarters. Whew.

I want this card: http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=136146

In order to get some idea of what I've been missing in the world of Magic: the gathering, I've started slowly working my way through the online card list for the Time Spiral set. I wish I could afford a couple boxes of that set. The first card in the time-shifted list is enough to make me want to but at least a few packs in the hope that I'll ( Read more... )

After my trip this weekend I am once again into Magic: the Gathering. Sadly, since I don't have anyone to play here that doesn't mean much. But it has caused me to finally take a look at the time spiral block. And this block has one overwhelming reason I should buy it: Slivers! I love slivers. I can't make an effective deck using them, but I sure ( Read more... )

My dad finally got his starting bonus so mom and I went out to eat tonight. We ended up going to Perkins (only so many options in Moses Lake) and the girl that showed us our seat and later took our money was just about the hottest redhead I've ever seen in my life. If I hadn't been with my mom and if I had any guts at all I definitely woulda tried ( Read more... )

Well, once again the teachers and the school district here in Moses Lake. The teachers want things like getting paid for the work they do. And the district wants to keep 7.5% (I think thats the number I was told) of their budget in reserve. They're supposed to keep a 1.5% reserve. Sheesh ( Read more... )
