Classes went ok, nothing exciting, I managed an A on my History and Lit quiz.... So I was happy about that anyway... We got some new fish tonight... and I got a minature replacement for our dearly departed Suck the fish, So now Bill the fish is swimming happily in the same waters suck once called home. But Bill is happy and that makes me happy... what doesn't make me happy is that My copy of Yellow Submarine isn't here yet... I hope it comes tomorrow... So I can have it before I head up... I really need to find out when all I have finals... I don't think i'm going to be able to come home next weekend... Blech... I hate staying up at school... Unless erin comes over, but she can't... So that's that huh.. My life has been rather boring lately... I mean really really dull... I mean seriously, I'm surprized anyone reads this at all... I'm a dull person... Ohh I know.. you must read it for my insightful (and ohh so often Taoist) quotes right? yeah right, no one has EVER commented on my quotes... it's all good advice! I really wouldn't post crap... I'm going to be bored stupid tomorrow... but I should practice piano, and maybe I'll draw some, and I dunno what else... I finally printed out my copy of the Bahadva Gita... A buddist text... Looking forward to reading it., Might even skim it for my wisdom tonight... So all is well, Bill the fish prepairs for bed, and So shall I, but I think i'm going to light some incense, put on Ravi Shankar, and read the bahadva Gita... It's going to be an indian night... Ohh and we played Rook tonight.... I lost REALLY REALLY bad, so pathetic of me... Ohh well, you win some, you loose some, and ties are neat too...

A person whose all works are free from selfish desires and motives is called a sage by the wise.x

It's friday morning.. I have one class... and a lesson... how cool is that? I mean really, I didn't even think about it till last night... but here at the end of the year I only have a meager two things to go to this fine friday... then next week i have classes Mon, Tues, Wed... then a reading day... a couple finals... and i'm outta here!! How cool is that... here is what is going to suck... Piano proficency, modern latin america final, getting all my theory IV comps done in time, percussion final and playing test, maybe the history and lit final..... here's what'll be a breeze Conducting final, saxophone juries, Instrumental Lit final (if we have one, i'm not sure!!)... so the stressful outweighs the jokes.... dern

Ravi Shankar is still cool...... and yes, i'm listening to it right now

Attain utmost emptiness, Maintain utter stillness.

Well, i'm glad my flip flops and Jeans are well received! Granted I don't own the multitudes of flip-flops that my darlin' owns.. but the pair I have I enjoy wearing very much... In fact, if I wasn't barefoot, I'd be wearing them now... and yes, Old Navy is great... no one would dare deny that.. no one...

Jason and I got a whole slew of music out of the library today including... Ladysmith Black Mumbaza, Ravi Shankar, and Phillip Glass... Yeah we're wierd... I've been so into the indian music though... I really am enjoying Ravi Shankars Cd... If I can save up the money this summer (hopefully working full time) I'd like to purchase myself a set of Tablas, So hopefully Novak can teach me how to use them when I have percussion lessons next year!! I mean, this indian classical music is the whole inspiration for the percussion lessons to begin with... I figured I'd have more success and in the end probably get more enjoyment out of Tabla than sitar, and frankly, I doubt I'll ever be able to afford a Sitar... Or be able to play it!! But it's all good.... I don't think Tabla are out of my grasp... Now learning all the Indian Tala (Rhythmic cycles) that might be another challenge all their own... Speaking of financal futures... Meals is thinking of purchasing all the equiptment he'd need to start a pretty much fully functional studio.. this if it comes to fruition... would be extreamly cool... Because he would then be able to record me, and maybe help me put together all this musical mumbo-craziness I have floating around in my skull... Now if I could just find a good Dijuridoo player? hehe, don't ask.. the things in my mind are better off left alone... Let sleeping dogs lie you know.... and all that... But yeah, Ravi Shankar, and George Harrison.... Very Very much my heros right now... Ohh yeah Like I could go this whole entry without referencing the beatles... yeah go George Harrison... You just smoke your crack and play that chalk keyboard... I'll listen all day...

The sage can achieve greatness, Because he does not act great.

The reason I suffer great afflictions is because I have a body; If I had no body, what affliction could I suffer?

Itsa wednesday, and I only have 5 days of classes yet, then juries and finals... which are probably going to stress me out beyond recognition, but that's ok... I can handle it... Can you?? Last night we watched the Beatles Movie, HELP, it was enjoyable, Although I didn't enjoy it as much as Yellow Sub, I'd put it about on par with Hard days night... It's certainly wierder, but I dunno... Nothing has beat yellow sub in my book yet... We're going to take a stab at our final beatles video pick tonight, Magical Mystery Tour... So it could still steal first place... but It's going to be difficult... We'll see, it's also a wings night, so video games, wings, a beatles movie, and my best friends...... man if only erin could come it'd be the best thing ever... even so, it's by far the coolest time i'll have without erin around... I miss her so much.. but I probably won't get to see her till her finals are over... She's a good student, and that's what makes her super smart, and me, average at best... But it's all good... Ok, my wrists really hurt, and I don't feel like typing anymore... Leave some comments ask some questions... after some wings, and the beatles.... i'm sure i'll come and blog again!!! Yes sir, yes sir...

Simply because he does not compete, no one can compete with him.

Well Today was Dutchmen Day... although by the time I write this today will actually be tomorrow, and today will only seem as if yesterday... Right :)

And what do you know we hit 300!!!!! and who is the lucky one! Why my own super-sweet wonderful angel, ERIN! Yippie! I'm glad you read it sweetie....yes you get a prize! You can have any prize you want... just let me know! I love you soo much... I can't wait till summer when we can spend lots of time together... It'll be wicked pisser.

As for Cyber-wispering, No one has wispered anything interesting to me.. so I agree unless it's actually private allow everyone to read and share in it's MAJESY! Erin should get in on the feedback... She's a busy girl though and just that she reads at all is impressive to me... If she wanted I could make it possible for her to CO-post on here... she wouldn't have to alot.. but if she's interested I'd love to make her apart of it!! :) Your so cute sweetie. We used tit up here alot last year... but it didn't catch on real well.. offended most of the girls.
Hmmm... Complaint box... novel idea... I may have to look into making something as such available... People don't enjoy commenting... but people LOVE complaining... how nice...

K, Kung Fu Chaos is a hit with me and bachman anyway, no one else has played yet... Melius, a member of Markelsaurus whom totally rocked hard-core today, also got Guilty Gear X2 a very excellent fighting game.... very intense very anime, very I like it... I really put off doing any work today, and it's late and I should go to bed... tomorrow is really going to bite me in the butt I tell yah.. I miss Erin... I can't wait too see her again.. I guess that's apperent because i've been saying it alot.. but I think about her all the time, and if you want to complain about it... to bad... she's me top priority... and always will be...

My wrists (supposedly afflicted with tendonitis) although had been feeling better, as of late, they ache like you wouldn't belive.. I can't even lay my head on my right arm (which I usually do to sleep) without my whole arm throwing shit fits... it's really getting bad... all my button mashing on game controllers hasn't helped either... I don't really want to go see the good Doctor again... but I may have too if it persists.

Simple things are beautiful

Ohh, Almost forgot 90% sure tomorrow is Dutchment Day! That would be very cool...

Nope, being gay still isn't a choice.

Ok, Sorry it's been so long since I last updated... it's not like me too skip a day... but in honor of Easter I took the day off... It was a really really good day too! I got to spent the vast majority of it with Erin... Whom, in her new green shirt was even more irresistablly adorable than usual!!! We had some Easter Dinners, I got a total of three Easter baskets as well... So much for me loosing weight... It's a shame chocolate isn't 0 calories... So this weekend went really super great because I got to see Erin...
Today bored with nothing else to do me and my sister went to the Park City Mall.. Not really for anything specific.. but just so we wouldn't have to be in the house any longer than nessisary... unfortunatally it's only three-fifteen and we're back already... this day is just crawing on by... if Erin were here it would have been over by now! how comes time always has to fly when your with your loved ones!! Why can't it work the other way around! I mean seriously... So over this weekend I got a new X-box controller, and the game Kung-Fu Chaos... both used of course.. since i'm too cheap to buy stuff new... (and too broke) but hopefully this will allow for some good entertainment during finals week... (between tests and studying of course Wink, Wink, Nudge, Nudge, know what I mean?) Well thank you Lindsay for commenting... no one else did really... but Since my counter is flying I have no choice but to think you must be reading this... We're almost to three hundred!!! and to think i just celebrated 200! I'm so proud, you love me, you really love me! Well hopefully you'll comment more once school is up and running again... and then hopefully i'll update more too! HAHA, ok, I think you've gotten enough till your next fix...

Gay is not a choice...
