I am so stoked!! The next day I got to go to a luncheon at the faculty club, and it was very cool. I sat at Jim Mattinson's table, and he's a ( Read more... )

garlic hummus + wheat thins = deliciousness!! that's what i'm having for "breakfast." Then off to the gym for a bit, to work off some of the weekend beer layer. This weekend was a little nuts. I need to remember to go to the gym more. I've been doing pretty well, but the more the better, right? I think i'm gonna buy some big flats of ( Read more... )

I realize it's been over a month since i've posted on here. oops. Quick update: Winter quarter is ridiculous! Structure, plate tectonics, and physics 4. I barely have time to sleep. But it's been a lot of fun so far. I just got over having strep throat, which was horrible. I couldn't sleep for days because of the pain. But now i'm on ( Read more... )

New years was awesome! I just woke up like an hour ago, I was so tired! i stayed out till like, 4am. i could have stayed later, but I was so tired! I hung out with Steph and a bunch of her neighbor friends, and they are all really cool. We started the night out at the E Bar, for drinks an dinner, then went over to Audry's (Steph's neighbor) ( Read more... )

I have had the weirdest morning! At like, seven in the morning, my roommate Crystal asked me if I knew who owned the black truck blocking the drive way. In my semi conscious state I was able to answer no, and go back to sleep. Then at around 7:45 she asks if she can borrow my car to drive to her final, since she can't find the owner of the black ( Read more... )

I'm so stoked that my physics midterms don't conflict with the sed-strat trip or geol 18! This quarter is gonna have some cool trips. Sed-strat is taking a 5 day trip to Mexico, all off road! It should be a lot of fun. Geology 18 is going to Big Sur. I'm excited about that one too! Met pet has a little day trip to the other side of Santa Ynez ( Read more... )

Yay! Ross is coming to visit this weekend! I haven't seen him since the weekend before Labor Day when we did that cool dim sum stuff. I can't wait! I wish I didn't have this annoying cold though. Especially since, aside from a stuffed up nose and being really sneezey, I feel fine! So I want to do fun stuff, but I don't want my cold to turn ( Read more... )

i finally became a member to one of those image hosting websites. It's called www.sutterbook.com, and since it's new ad I am a beta tester basically, I get a free premium account for life. So far I have uploaded a whole bunch of party and geology pics, but I want to upload some from my Europe trip and stuff like that. I just got this account ( Read more... )

Mike reminded me of a bright spot in all this. Bush's approval rating is down to 36%. I think if it drops below a certain %, he should be forced to resign, and a new election should be held. That would be sweet.

Can you believe some of the shit (I don't usually swear, but it really is awful stuff) that is being pulled out there in Utah? Military style raids on raves? (http://homepage.mac.com/apexgrin/.Public/fascism.mov) What is going on in this country? This makes me ( Read more... )
