Whats goin' on people. Everything's goin great up here at State, I'm half way through the LAST WEEK OF CLASSES!!! (ever) I have THREE finals tomorrow, which totally sucks, but then I only really have a couple more MSU commitments ever. Next Monday I have to get up at 7 and present my poster, then after that I have my last (pain in the ass) exam in Geochemistry. (I HATE THAT CLASS!) Last week was cool, lots of partying before we had to begin studying.

Thursday - Celebrations all day! We also got a group of us to celebrate and head out to see Scary Movie 4, which was pretty good. It was a great time over there, although I was a little bit obliterated by the time I left, it was still cool. I didn't make it to class on Friday, however...

Saturday - We woke up early(ish) and all chilled a bit before the Red Cedar River Cleanup for Earth Day. It was great, Kari, Andrea, Pell, and Tyler all came out with me, and we got the whole river cleaned up much more quickly this year. There was a lot of volunteers, and it was a beautiful day. Towards the end, it began getting clowdy, which made Kari nervous because she was planning a BBQ for 6:00. We kicked it off at around 5:30, and while the weather was a little iffy, it held out. There was a TON of people there; Kari, Andrea, Smatt, Amber, Brendan, Christine, Drunk Matt, Parker, Ben, Heather, Jeremy, Tyler, Dave, Dwight, Conner, Mike, Buck, Tara, Zack, Justin, Sabrina, and Christen, just to name a few. We kept it kickin' until the wee hours, with plenty of pong to go around.

Sunday - Went to the PISTONS game at the Palace with Christine, Amber, and Scar Matt. We had a great trip out there and Christine's Mom (MILF! JK;) cooked up a mean dish of pasta with garlic bread for us. We headed to the game and the Pistons kicked some serious ass. Got back around midnight and was outside for a minute when these drunken people come outside also from another apartment by me. They invited me in for a beer, so I headed in and DAMN do those sophmores know how to party. It's like midnight on a Sunday evening and they're all partying like it's a Thursday night! They had a sweet kegerator and some pong going, it was cool. I headed out at about 1 and passed out for class the next day.

Monday - Class, presentation, studying, 24 TYME! 24 was great, as always. The president is such a terrorist, though.

Tuesday - Class, wrote a paper, studying, then watched a movie. It was called Just Friends (I think) that one with Van Wilder in it. I thought it'd totally be lame, but it had some pretty funny parts.

Today (Wednesday) - Had class from 10:20-11:10 am, just got out, and now I'm at the Library until about midnight. Oh I can't wait to get these three exams done with tomorrow...



Peace out everybody,

Happy belated Easter, everybody! Hope everyone had a good Easter weekend, it was pretty fun for me. Went discing twice at Kensington, which is a great course. I went with Chris on Sunday, he had a good time. The food at home was great, that's always a good thing about going home. I FINALLY saw Walk the Line, and it was a great movie and everything, but everyone hyped it too much I guess. It was a great movie and I love Johnny Cash, but still, I guess had huge expectations. It was a bad ass flick though, I liked it. Yesterday sucked, I had a class, 2 labs, a group meeting, and a 5 page paper to write. I got it all done, and the semester is quickly wrapping up. Two weeks of class, then finals, then South America for a month to study Globalization & the Environment. Chris brought the long board, so that is my new form of transportation. It's so nice for getting around town, but I'm trying to get some decent stickers for it. I might skip Ecology today to go discin' but me and Tyler havn't decided if it's worth it yet. It's so nice out, the perfect day for disc, and theres a stupid guest lecturer in class today so it's even more tempting. We'll just go wherever the wind takes us I guess.

I'm out

A good friday indeed...

Random Fact of the Day
The fingerprints of koala bears are virtually indistinguishable from those of humans so much so that they could be confused at a crime scene.




NICE WEATHER FINALLY!!! A Good Friday indeed. Yesterday we got out for a round of disc golf at Grand Woods, and I got to try out my new driver. It's good for distance, but I gotta get something mid-range for side arm tosses. It rained a bit, but only for a minute. Just took it easy last night, played some games and chilled. My 10:20 class wasn't bad, we got out a little early. My professor kept busting out laughing and dropping the marker and stuff, he's a goofy guy. Gonna chill with Kari for a bit then my Dad's coming to pick me up at 4 to head back to Brighton for the weekend. It'll be nice, I don't usually go home for Easter and I figured it'd be cool. My brother Chris is coming home for a bit, so thats a plus. I put some new games and shit up, check 'em out if you want. But yea, breakfast didn't happen so I'm gonna go take care of that.


Peace

Feet sweat because there are about 250,000 pores on their soles that squirt a quarter cup of liquid each day.







Yep, that's right folks, trying to get hippy monkey goin' again after another extended hiatus. Less than a month to graduation, it's been crazy fun and busy all at the same time. Chris came out to State on Saturday and partied it up EL style. It was really cool that he came out, it had been a while since we chilled. Friday there was a big party at D Matts, which is always fun. Just been takin it easy this week, 24 was fucking intense (as always) and Family Guy was great. Last night I went to Jims, he had a bonfire (yes, and illegal one in the city, go suck it court 54-B) It was great, I saw Jim, (it had been too long) Christine, Smatt, Amber, Meghan, Shawn, Mike Chimpco, and Brad. I've got a 15 pager due next week I'm about to get working on, so that sucks. Also, my lab partner didnt show today, so I got out early which is good cuz now I have some free time, but bad because I'm not doing anything with it. (except blogging) This Thursday Covert Operations is coming around to Lansing, I'm gonna try and hit that up. Also, Friday is the John Butler Trio in Ann Arbor, who I had never heard, but damn can they jam. It's at the pig, I'm probrably gonna try and go but it's all up in the air at this point.

Peace, Peppers, and Pickles,
