Today, I finally decided I should go see The Passion of Christ. About two weeks ago my devoutly southern baptist father decided that it was the most accurate portrayal of the event he had ever seen and that he must share such a moving work with his baby boy. I got a weird phone call from my dad asking me if I had seen the movie and then he told ( Read more... )

God. I never thought I would be greeted by the feeling of pure exhiliration that I have felt ever since arriving home last night. On my first night back, I didn't even go home. Instead, there was a small party thrown in my honor at Erik's shop. My friend Sarah promised she would wear something slutty and for the first time in awhile I got to ( Read more... )

Well. This weekend was the weekend before finals. It was supposed to be a studious weekend filled with exhaustive study and little time in the sunshine. I was going to devote each day, and consequent evening, to constant academic enlightenment. It was going to happen. And then it did happen. And it didn't quite play out like that. So Friday ( Read more... )

Spring weather has finally arrived at Santa Cruz! After a long and arduous winter, we are finally able to escape the dorms and go out and enjoy the glorious sunshine. I don't know what the temperature is outside right now, but whatever it is, it can stay like this forever and I will be a happy man. The sunshine makes it almost too warm, but then ( Read more... )

Last night I met a girl who was born, like me, on Christmas day. Although this may not seem strange to anyone else, being that any given child is as likely to be born on Christmas as any other day, I had gone my entire life, up until that point, without meeting another person who shared this awkward holiday with me and JC. Well, actually, she's ( Read more... )

The transition from high school to college can be quite disheartening. In high school I went to class for like six or seven hours straight at least three or four times a week (the other days I was there at least half the day). Now, here in this wonderful institution of higher (especially in Santa Cruz) learning, I'm only expected to attend class ( Read more... )

Ahh, back at last. This weekend was the craziest of my life. Friday, Blaise picked me up and we headed down to Cal Poly for Mardi Gras. We arrived at Jeff and Mikey's dorm at about two and busted out Blaise's big ass bottle of vintage R.H. Phillips (a woodland classic) Syrah. I got relatively drunk off of it, but I guess no one else did. Us ( Read more... )

Ah, this weekend is Mardi Gras! I'll be making the trek down to Cal Poly, California's mecca for the deeply religious holiday. Though sometimes I wonder if partying is really what I need to be doing with my spare time, those thoughts normally occur between bong rips. Its funny, last quarter I visited Jeff and Mikey once. This quarter, its going ( Read more... )
