| I know, I know, I never update this frickin' thing... Anyway- quick update- I now live in Indiana with my step-dad where I am about to complete my first semester at Ball State. Great news from finals week- I got an A on my health final! YAY! Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat. I'm driving back to Iowa on saturday to be with Mikey!  I'm uber excited for that and I can't wait to give people their Christmas gifts- I love giving gifts because a.) I'm good at it and b.) I love getting people things they actually want but didn't ask for, and then seeing their reaction when they open it.  Christmas will be wierd this year because Caryn and Dave won't be there and no one is going to mom's until the morning of the 26th. We always have Christmas at mom's on the 26th but we usually congregate the night before because that's sort of our Christmas Eve and mom likes to watch It's a Wonderful Life. Ralph and I will be the only ones there  That's ok though because Christmas at my mom's is always the shit! She does so much to make sure everyone is pleased and has a good time which we always do.  There is a strange cult-horror movie that I heard about a long time ago but never saw called 2001 Maniacs  . It's that horror style where it's scary but cheesy but meaning to be cheesy not really cheesy. Anyway- It's on one of the movie channels at like 1 in the morning tonight so I'm going to stay up and watch it. I love watching movies I've never seen before because that doesn't happen very often.  Well, so long. PS- another udate: I now have a pooch named Wally and he is the best pooch is all the land. Wally's words of wisdom for the day: Don't bite on your own tail because it hurts!  | | |
| Wow- It's been a while and my sister Caryn politely pointed that out to me this past weekend when we all got together at my mom's house. So, my summer class started last night. I think it will be really challenging (biology  ) but at the same time, the people in the class seem really nice. Plus, the lecture portion is on the internet but the lab part is on campus. It's pretty nice because we each get our own table with our own microscope and lap top with wireless internet! Ok, now I sound like a nerd. It's gonna be pretty hard to pay attention with internet Boggle will be calling my name all class  .
I went shopping the other day and got two new books: Lucky and Haunted. The latter is pretty interesting thus far. It's by Chuck Palhunick (author of Fight Club) and it's about a group of writers who are going away on a writing retreat... little do they know they are really apart of an experiment. The teacher of the course locks them in and turns off the power and stops giving them food. The book is a compiling of stories people locked in wrote while on the retreat from hell. It's pretty wierd because as more and more time pasts, the stories get stranger and stranger.
I also bought the movies Waiting (frickin' hilarious  , especially if you've ever worked in the food industry), Spun (crazy movie  that follows a college dropout over the course of three days while he chauffers a crystal meth chef around the city to gather ingredients), and Almost Famous which is a personal fav. Mmmmm... Billy Crudup  .... Speaking of Billy Crudup, everyone should check out his latest MI:3 with wacky Tom Cruise  . I also recently saw a movie called Jesus's Son starring Billy and it's very very good.
Anyway, that's all for now! | | |
| Hay- yo.
School is gettin' pretty thick, yucky. Mike and I saw Hostel and When a Stranger Calls last night. Hostel = When a Stranger Calls =  But the latter was better than the first. They were both pretty bad but at least When a Stranger Calls was entertaining. I don't see what the big hooplah about Hostel was. People went to the hospital from reactions from the initial screenings...  Why? It was lame. Well, it would be sweet if you're into serious gore disappointments. Plus Emily told me it was really gory so I figured I could have that to look forward to- but nada. There was one good scene where the main character has to cut someone's eye off that had popped out of it's socket, but the only really stiffling scene had to do with someone puking- not the blood or anything. Lame-o. When will someone make a good horror movie? We can't all rely on Rob Zombie to do EVERYTHING! | | |
| Me bored... :(
I had loads of HW so I stayed home to work while Mike went out to play  In fact, I'm all alone right now in the house and it's really windy outside and it sounds scary
Earlier today, ma mere came to visit and we went to Wal-Mart and bummed around. Then I made her and Mike din-din: marinated chicken boobs, corn, green beans, croissants, and stuffing. It was good... I mean really good. Then mom and I watched a movie after Mike went to work. Then she left too and I was all alone You'd think I'd get used to being alone by now, but I'm not.
It's about 78% official that I will be transfering to Ball State in the fall. This is sad news yet good news. I'm excited to get started down there and not have to pay for an effin' thing but I don't want to leave Mike even though I get the distinct impression that he sees me leaving as a good thing.

Yo.
It's been awhile!! Welp, school started. It's going pretty well so far but it is only the first week. We (meaning Emily and I) went to Sharky's on Monday where Mike and Curtis were because it was Leroy's 21st, and needless to say: he was bombed! But hey, what's your 21st for anyway?
I haven't been able to spend a lot of time with Mike because of us going to school on a REGULAR basis this semester so that kind of sucks. We rented a couple of movies the other night: Four Brothers which was surprisingly good and Dark Water which was unsurprisingly bad. For some reason, everytime a horror movie comes out I was have to see it even though 9 times out of 10, it's bad. For instance, we went to see Wolf Creek over break which was supposed to be one of the scariest movies of all time blah blah blah blah blah blah. It was based on a true story so I read up on it and anything and a.) didn't follow the true story and b.) not scary and c.) the characters didn't even meet the bad guy until an hour into the movie which left about 30 minutes for midless crap. Hopefully Hostel will prove to be much better, but I'm guessing it's going to be disappointing.
Anyway- peash out! | | |
