Do you feel that you cannot control your sexual urges?

That was a question I had to answer at this psych study that we went to yesterday. It was pretty much the most random stuff ever. But it was worth the three points! Woot. Umm... I'm sitting in my room eating some cereal at the moment, the cereal is delicious though. I think this is the first morning that I've woken up and really not wanted to go to class. I really don't want to go. REAL BAD. I'll get over it, I have to go to French. I think I'll go log a few office hours today at the Program Board office today, we're having our show this weekend, BE THERE. That is if you actually live around here... otherwise, nevermind, I don't expect you to drive forever. But anyhoo, its at the Plachta Auditorium... at 8:00 pm this Saturday. It'll be marvelous. Well, I'm excited anyways. Let's see whats on the agenda for today:

French - ten to eleven
Gerontology - eleven to twelve
Program Board - twelve to one thirty
Psych - two to three fifteen
Psych Experiment - three thirty to three fifty-five
GSA - eight to God knows when...

Should be a long day, but I live on that... hmm... I kinda wanna go to the SAC today, damnit. Big Kisses.

How could I forget?

I saw Corey and my latin lover, Adrian the other day! It was wonderful, I love those guys. Anyhoo, I realize I haven't posted in a few days, just been super busy. I have exaclty 6 minutes to post this, then I'm going down to breakfast with my buddy Ben from the terrace. Let's see, the ride back to CMU was great, we sang Savage Garden. When we returned, Amanda drove followed us to the parking lot and drove us back so we could get to swing dancing on time. THANKS AMANDA !!! Swing dancing was a lot of fun, I was forced to be a lead for a little bit, then I begged some girl to switch with me so that I didn't have to, because I didn't really know how to lead. But I got to dance with some guys that actually knew what they were doing, which is always an event.

Yesterday, I didn't have to get up until 8:00 to go to breakfast with Lia, then I came back and fell asleep until 10:00 because I didn't have to go to French class until 1:30, for a test that I probably bombed. Gerontology was interesting as always, but not notable. Then I had a psych test, which was pretty good. I'm really really liking psychology. A lot. Then Cat and I played Super Mario 3 after dinner. YAY! I love Mario. We sucked ass though. We walked up to the SAC and I ran 4.5 miles, plus however far it was to walk to the SAC, so I worked them legs... I got to take a shower right when we came home, then I went to bed, because I've been feeling like shit, so sleep is wonderful. I did have the weirdest dream last night. It was about me working in a nursing home and I helped this old lady, named Sarah Lynn, into the elevator, then went to get her purse, then she died in the elevator while I was gone for 30 seconds... needless to say, I feel like I didn't sleep at all... I gotta go get some brekkie now, laters.

I AM SICK OF IT...!

Okay, I am completely sick of people complaining to me about my friends, they are my friends and I love them, so shut your damn mouths. End of story. We're through. Done. Finito. Au revoir. Sayo-fucking-nara. Okay, now that I'm done with that rant, let's continue.

Today has been lovely, I went to El Walmarto. It was crappy. I hate Walmart a lot. I did get a thingie for my key chain though, its like a fake rappelling clip. But I like it. Then I saw Ashley Ellerbe and Amy Culbertson. Which was delightful as always. I may go to Starbucks with my Starbucks buddy, if our schedules allow it, but I got some major studying to do tonight and tomorrow before I leave. And I have an interview with my Betty tomorrow morning at 10:30 at Lesbyterian Village. I'm excited. I don't have much else to report, so I'll leave you with one last comment. I LOVE YOU!!! And you. And you too.

Yeah Super Mario 3 !!!!

I love super mario 3... it is the absolute best one & Cat and I just played it for like an hour and a half. It was hot and sexy. Soo... yeah, not much going on, I do have a fun picture to though. Umm... today, I'm going home around 4 o'clock... YESS!! Fried Chicken tonight! I'm so excited for home cooking. I have absolutely no homework this weekend, just a little bit of studying to do for some tests next week, but that shouldn't be so bad. I've finally got my meal plan down to a science, I know exactly when I can and cannot eat so I have the right amount for the week. It's very exciting.

Did anyone notice that it was so damn cold last night? I slept like a rock, apparently I was out at 12:20 when Cat got outta the shower and I didn't get up till about 9:30, so it was a good sleep. I'm really excited to go home and do laundry too, I've been saving up all week for it.

Oh, the absolute best way to spend a morning is playing hardcore Super Mario for a good hour and a half, I love that game more than I love life itself, it's so engaging, although I do get scared when I'm getting chased by those damn little ghosts with teeth, those are frightening. A few people stopped in our room just because they heard the familiar Mario music, it was quite fun. Well... I eventually have to get dressed and now is as good a time as ever, so I'll have to talk at y'all later. Big kisses.

Hmm...

Well, last night, we tried to watch Sling Blade, one of my all time favorite movies... but then I turned it off to watch MTV's Sweet Sixteen show, which has these completely obnoxious people, usually girls, whoring it up for their sweet sixteen, where at least a few thousand dollars are thrown into, if not more, I'm sure every one of them could pay off my tuition for the next 7 years and still have enough money for a kick ass party. Those whorey assed bitches. <-- Exceeds the swearing quota, eh?

Today was special, as usual, I was up at 7 and I ate the last of my Golden Grahams. They were delicious. Then I went to Economics, which I hate with a passion. Duh. It was boring, as usual. Then I went to French and we pretty much discussed, in French of course, all of the stories that we've read so far. I love that class. In Ms. B's class, not that I didn't love it, because Cooper would hit me real hard if I said that, but we didn't learn any French, we did like one story per year, whereas in this class, we've already read like ten. Then I came home and we had lunch. Beautiful. Then off to my favorite class, ASL. Today, we discussed, in detail, the film that I was talking about in my previous post. It was quite a discussion, let me tell you.

I'm feeling very odd today... I've been super giggly all the damn day. It's probably as strange to experience as it is to watch. I dunno, ask Cat, she caught the wrath of the giggles today. Tonight is Tourettes and Survivor in 117 with Courtney, Amanda & Lia. Should be a fun time. I'm gonna do all of my homework tonight and tomorrow until 2 so that once we are done with HON 100B, we can leave and be home by 7-ish. Whoopie. I'm excited to go home. Gotta get more cereal. I need more cereal. I cannot live without more cereal. I'm really tired right now, it's like I'm having a sugar crash, super happy, then super tired within minutes. Its pathetic, really.

I have nothing all that interesting to say... Oh! I do! I went to my first GSA meeting ( I'm a straight ally babes, sorry ) I know y'all want me. Anyways, I really like the group of people that I hung out with, and I kinda knew a few of the people before I joined, and there's this really nice guy from my French class there, he's a sweetie. We went sidewalk chalking last night and it was fun, but I had to be alone for a little bit, so I called Cat to come keep me company and help me out. My awesome 12 year old cousin Trevor did something so cute last night though, first off, he kept calling me during the meeting, so I called him after, he thought that something was wrong with our nana because she wasn't answering her phone, turns out she lost it. Anyhoo, I told him that I was outside (it was about 10:00 pm), and he was like "ARE YOU ALONE???" and I told him I was, but Cat was coming to keep me company, then he was like "Is it a well lit area?" and I told him it was and he was all gruff and said "good". Needless to say, we stayed on the phone until Cat came to rescue me. It was so cute.

Aight, I gotta go, got some last minute stuff to do before Tourettes! I know, you're jealous. But don't fret, we'll have a Rocky/Tourettes party either on Thanksgiving or Christmas break, or both... something to look forward to, eh? Okie dokie, I'm gonna get offline now, I'm tired of vegging on the computer. I'll give ya a big ole smooch when I see ya.

I-N-F-U-R-I-A-T-I-N-G

I've fallen absolutely head over heels for that damn VJ day picture of the strangers smoochin'. I don't know why, but now its popping up everywhere. Yay. Yesterday, I forgot to post and I apologize sincerely, but I was a busy one. Let's see... I awoke around 7 o'clock to go to Economics, which I'm sure I forgot to mention that I hate that class... with a burning passion. Then I came home for two minutes, I had to go take care of my damn financial aid, they were trying to overcharge me by about 1200 dollars. Eff that. (Yes Cooper, I stole "eff"... I'm trying to at least cut down on the swearing in the blog.) Then I went to Francias, which was pleasant as always, we spoke a little French, got a little confused & I finally remembered the name of the girl that I sit next to every morning.

ASL was completely infuriating. We watched this film "For My Deaf Son". It was absolute crap. These parents couldn't decide whether or not to teach this kid sign language or oralism, so at the age of four, he could barely communicate beyond yelling and very fragmented phrases. They were so freakin' selfish, it was disgusting. The mom didn't want to teach the kid sign language because she wanted to teach him English, but he can't really understand what people are saying because his hearing aid doesn't unscramble the words. So the kid knows barely any sign language and barely any English, so he can barely communicate. ARGH!!! You'd think that these parents would at least teach him sign language to begin with so that he could have a base of a language.

I have to go to class now, I'll post more laters.

Yeah! I Changed The Boring Blog!

I know, I'm awesome. I really love that picture, I read something about it a few weeks ago in The Week magazine and bam! I love it. Anyhoo, today was pretty much the usual, boring-ish, but tolerable all the same. Gerontology is a very enjoyable class. This teacher is completely insane. I don't know if I've mentioned, but I absolutely love my Psychology class, it is pretty much the most interesting thing ever. We have the most insightful discussions in that class, like what is consciousness. Its so damn cool.

I went to the SAC again tonight, I keep loving it more and more. I think I finally figured out what runners high was, because I didn't wanna stop tonight. I ran 4.3 miles in 45 minutes... and I'm so proud of myself, it's disgusting. But that's a step up from barely being able to run a mile, I figured it out though, I can't run outside because of the allergens in the air, ie my stupid grass and tree allergy. But inside, its all good. I'm so happy, I wanna work up to ten miles, I know it sounds crazy, but I think I can do it.

I have to go do my French homework. Goodnight my loves.

I <3 The SAC

I've fallen madly in love with the SAC. I wanna be there all the time. Yesterday I ran a mile and biked five miles, then I just did some strength training. Yeah, I know running a mile is nothing special, but I'm proud of myself, I'm not much of a runner. I found a couple of machines that I'm absolutely loving, they're mostly for working your legs, but there's this one that's really cool, I can't describe it though. Anyhoo, yesterday, I woke up and went to breakfast, then came home and studied, I accidentally fell asleep, but only for an hour and a half ;). I got back to the studying, so all I have to do today is read a little more psychology, a quick french exercize and I'll probably end up doing some med terms work. I can name all of the abdominopelvic regions! Right Hypochondriac, Epigastric, Left Hypochondriac, Right Lumbar, Umbilical, Left Lumbar, Right Iliac, Hypogastric, Left Iliac! Yess! I totally win at life.

I might do some laundry today, it seems like a good idea. I'll prolly end up going back to the SAC today as well, there's prolly not a lot of people there on Sundays. The first swing dancing lesson is today too! I'm so excited. OH! I have to return Meet Joe Black too. Well, I get to leave campus today! That's an exciting development. Well, I'm off to study psych. Yay.

Aww...damn, I just remembered that it was September 11.

Blubbering FOOLS

Yesterday was quite an interesting day, lemme tell you. I got up around 9 and went down to breakfast with Cat and Lia, which was delightful, as always. Then I came home and took a shower and went to Gerontology. Here's a quote from Prof. Malonebeach, pretending that she was an elderly man visiting his doctor:

"I can't have sex with my wife anymore because my little teeny peeny is teeny!"

So, anyways, after Gerontology, we went to lunch and then off to the Honors Convocation, where yes, I was wore a skirt. And then we had to sit in the grass, combine that with a white skirt and an allergy to grass, and you have quite an experience. But I enjoyed myself, there's a guy in my group who's from Fair Haven and he seems pretty cool. After the Honors thing, I hung out in the dorm for a while, getting homework and studying done. Which I still have more to do today and tomorrow. I hung out with Amanda & Courtney downstairs a little, then went back and watched The Notebook with them around nine. It was an absolute mess. We were crying like wounded puppies, but whenever Courtney would start crying, she would get really loud, so Amanda and I would start laughing whilst crying. I kinda wish someone woulda seen that one, it was beautiful. I hung around there for a bit and we laughed our asses off until about 12:00, when I decided that I needed to go to bed, because I was laughing like I do when I get really tired and I had the most enormous headache that you could imagine.

Today I'm gonna study, probably talk online for a little bit and get my rear end over to the SAC to work out. Leave me some saucy lovin'.

Well... Last night was an interesting one. Lauren Irwin came over and told us scary things about New Baltimore that makes me not wanna go home again and furthermore I don't ever wanna see the film they make about Morrow Road... Seems a wee bit to scary for me. Anyhoo, yesterday was a crazy one, let me tell you. I went to class and fell asleep in economics because I was so damn tired, I was writing notes and fell asleep in the middle of a word, I was rubber necking it throughout the entire class. French was marginally better, no sleepies. ASL was good as ever, we did pantomime, which was a lot of fun.

Around 4 yesterday, Lia called with the realization that we had a film review for gerontology and it was due this morning at 11:00. So we dashed up to the video store and rented Meet Joe Black for 50 cents. It was a really long movie and I cried because the ending was sad. Then Cat and I watched Fried Green Tomatoes because its the best movie ever. In the whole world. And I turned Cat into a Fried Green Tomatoes lover. Yay.

Now it is time to shower, so while I'm gone, ponder just how awesome I am.

...

I am so fucking tired right now, I don't feel as if I can drag my ass across the parking lot and into my seat in economics. Mother fucker. I wanna nap, real bad.

Spreading The Love

I got a 100% on my test! I win at life. Anyways, about Tourettes, the way I see it is if everyone who knows how to play, teaches a group of their friends how to play and so on and so forth, the entire world will know how to play it in a generation or two. I want to spread the immense joy of Tourettes, its the biggest stress reliever that I can think of. And when I say people should teach others how to play, I mean you people at different schools, so we can all spread the joy. This means you, Cooper, teach all of your NY friends how to play... they'll like it. Then it will be famous... I know it. Wow... I love that game, its a scary obsession.

Okay, done with that tangent. I just wanna thank Jill & Ferzy for coming up and doing the futon and shopping and the casino, it was a blast. Oh!!! I got your card today, Unka! It was pretty cute...and pink... that's the only way to a girls heart is pink... atleast this girl's heart. I love pink.

Goooooooooooooooooooood Night!

Tourettes, coming to a dorm near you...

Okay, we introduced Tourettes to our roommates and Lia's roommates tonight. It was awesome. And we played with the door open because we are rabble rousers. It was a fucking blast... I know you're all jealous, but it can't be helped. Today was rather uneventful, went to classes then to the SAC to work my fat ass out. It was schweaty, but boy did it feel good. I think I wanna live at the SAC, its so great.

I'm gonna take a med terms quiz online, then I'll post more. Wish me luck.

It's been a good few days, we got back Monday night and Cat threw a mini surprise birthday party for me! We had cupcakes, which were delicious (Thank's Cat's mom). Cat got me this AWESOME closet shelfy thing & some little storage boxes, where I keep my drugs. Lia got me a cute backpack thing too.

Well, classes yesterday were fine, then around 3, Jill & Jenny came up with the futon & I helped them put it together. Then we went to Target & Walmart to get crates & stuff, then off to the casino to eat and lose my ass gambling. The food was okay, I'm just not a buffet person. Then I played quarter slots with Aunt Jill's money for a few hours, won some, lost a lot. It was good, it just proved to me that I never ever want to enter a casino again.

I got home and felt like fuck, I had been inhaling smoke and old people for hours on end, I smelled like a vanilla cigar. It was nasty. I felt like I was gonna hurl, but I didn't. I put up the crate/shelves & they look hot. Then I showered my stinky cigar flavored ass and went to the hall council meeting. It was boring as fuck, but I'll probably go every week. Then I came home and talked online while rearranging my crap onto the shelves. It was good for me. I finally went to bed around 12:20. This morning I woke up, brushed my teeth and went to breakfast and now I'm sitting here relaying my life's events to you fine people. Later my loves.

Well, as y'all know, yesterday was my birthday... but it was just pretty much any other day, I went shopping with my mom & stuff. I didn't even do anything that you can't do until you're 18. I will though, I swear. We stopped at Jill's house & that was fun, then we got home and Jake & Becky were there. Jason got me a really funny Harry Potter shirt, that only Harry Potter fans would appreciate. It says "Dumbledore dies on page 596". Only a true nerd would get it. Umm... Last night, Ashley Ellerbe & I went to Starbucks. It was delicious.

Oh! Thanks to everyone who called/messaged me with happy birthday, it really did make my day :) :) :) When I typed messaged, it reminded me of massaged, which reminded me of a sensual massage. Someone try to figure out my brain.

Anyhoo... I've got a lot of shit to do, so I'll be going now.

Hola mis amigos

I recently (2 seconds ago) realized how to turn the comments back on, so you all better start leaving them, I'd feel very bad about myself if I didn't get any. I'm sitting in my living room, in the big NB, bored shitless. Well, I'm watching Six Feet Under and bored shitless. It is a delicious show. And I can't fall asleep because I'm excited, I turn 18 in about 15 minutes! Woot! But I'm not doing anything for my birthday because I'm a loser, I do get to see my brother tomorrow, which I'm excited about, since I haven't seen him in at least a good month or so.

Cat and I made the 3 hour-ish trek home today, stopping for 10 minutes at Birch Run so I could get a back pack for cheap. It's sexy & green. I don't understand why I all the sudden like green, but I do... a lot. Anyways, I gouged my finger on my cell phone holder thing and a nice chunk of skin fell off... it was only a few minutes from home though. Got home around 4. It was sexy, I immediately left and went to Selfridge with Nana and my mom. That was good fun. I saw an awesomely named cereal there, "Mini Frosted Spooners", which prompted me to call Cooper because we have a running spooning joke. You wouldn't understand. Sorry.

Anyhoo, I got some cereal, granola bars, dish soap, tampons, white out and other random junk. It was a good trip to the base. I heart tax free shopping. Oh, by the way, I want to marry Birch Run. It's simply unbelievable. Everything is constantly on sale.

I gotta go to the village this weekend to start a series of interviews with a person over 70 for my gerontology class and I know just the right person to interview, she's my favorite resident and has an interesting perspective on life. I'll prolly do that tomorrow over a nice cuppa Timmy's.

I have so much shit to do in this almost 4 day weekend. We coulda been home yesterday around 7 pm, but I had a gerontology class today from 11:00 until 11:50, I had to stay for a 50 minute class, which I could have completely blown off, but didn't because I paid for it. Damnit. I assume that I will blow it off occasionally, but only to get home to do an interview, so it is an acceptable reason. I swear its a good reason, don't pick on me.

I came home to 6 CDs that I had ordered offa BMG, they're tres sexy: Kelley Clarkston -- Breakaway, Modest Mouse -- Good News For People Who Love Bad News, Lifehouse -- Lifehouse, Counting Crows -- Films About Ghosts, Graham Colton Band -- Drive, & Fall Out Boy -- From Under The Cork Tree. Wooooooooooooooot. That's sexy, the only unsexy thing is that I have to bring them back up to school to put them on my laptop, which I really don't want to do, but I'll live. I just see myself losing the CDs... and I don't wanna, I love CDs. Speaking of, I have a whole bunch of CDs to put on my computer still, maybe I'll bring them all up this time and hide them in my trunk so I can't lose them. Maybe.

I have to remember to bring a cable splitter and a long cable cord up to school. Maybe if I put it on my blog, someone will remind me to do it. Oh! Jill & Jenny are coming up to Mt. Pleasant on Tuesday ( I could say just to visit me, because I'm awesome, but they're up for the casino). It should be a spectacular time, I get to go play the quarter slots! I also have to register to vote, which I'm uber excited about.

One last thing: Do not let boys come into your room to use your toilet, they WILL poop in it. No matter what. Especially the ever odd Donny Reinhard. The room smelled for an hour. And I'm out.

Ugh... Rabbit Rabbit!

Oy freaking vey, I'm tired and its only 2:25, but I started at 7:00 this morning. I still stand by the idea that macroeconomics is boring as all hell. It sucks ass. But I'm done with classes by 2, and I have breaks in between, so it doesn't suck that much. I'm definitely in love with the Gorillaz right now. They're sexy... speaking of, I forgot to get Cooper to send me the song "Feel Good Inc." I love it... but I swore that I wouldn't make her send me anything else.

Yay, I'm coming home this weekend... and I'm so watching the entire 4th season of Six Feet Under with my mom and dad. I love that show. It's ultimately sexy.

My mom called my cell when I was in the middle of Economics class today. She sucks. And she didn't even call for anything important, just to rabbit rabbit me. Don't even ask what it is, if you know, you know, if you don't, you're not missing anything. Damn Ms. Vloet. Rabbit Rabbit kinda sounds like Rabid Rabbi. Which could be a little un-kosher, if you know what I mean.

It makes me mad when people drive to class. Argh, they're dumb.

Long day #2

Well, this morning at 7, Cat and I went down to breakfast and then I went to Principles Of Macroeconomics. That class seems very boring. End of story. The teacher admitted to giving a shitload of notes on things that weren't very important. I'm so excited. Then I went to French at 10. I understood a little bit today, but the homework tonight took a long time, Ms. B never emphasized being able to read stories that were grammatically correct...that slut. But I got it done eventually. I had my first ASL class today. It's fucking awesome. It is so damn cool, I can't even believe it. We sit in a circle and aren't allowed to talk, we just have to learn by immersion. YUSS!

So, I got home today around 2 and had the worst fucking headache that I've had in a while, it was one of those that if I was in a bad mood, it would've made me cry because it hurt so bad. So I started reading my psych chapter for tomorrows class, then on page 9, I fell asleep. Apparently Cat thinks its very funny when people fall asleep with books in their hands, because she gave me a very spirited view of what I was doing whilst being asleep. I woke up and the book was still in my hand AND my headache was gone. I read the rest of the chapter and then nerdily did all the review questions because I plan on acing this course. I really really hope that I do. Its sa-weet.

OH! We went down to the absolute farthest point from our dorms today, the intramural baseball fields, for a Program Board party, to get introduced to everyone. It was a lot of fun and we played extreme kickball. Its a good game, I made an out! Yeah, I know you're jealous of my enormous ball catching skills. The meetings are every Tuesday at 8 o'clock, I'm so joining. It's gonna rock my freakin' socks. I love the high intensity of it all, its like WHOA! I love it...did I mention that I love it? Because I really do love it. Speaking of RSO's (student orgs), I'm not entirely positive which ones I'm joining yet, but I'm positive about this one and the Gay-Straight Alliance, because there's just not enough people that love gay people like I do. But seriously, I just want to help spread the equality, especially since I know so many gay/bi people & love them to pieces. I would really like to join the S.A.P.A group, which is a kind of crisis line for rape victims, but I don't trust myself not to go out and kick every one's ass who does something bad. I think it would be a good idea to join hall council, it might give me a good chance of getting to be an RA next year. Hmm... could I be any more school spirited?

Sam has left the building.

I lied, I lied... I LIED, okay, you caught me

Okay, so I know I was supposed to post yesterday, it just turned into a long day and I didn't get a chance. Let's see.. I had my first French class, which was okay, I understood the teacher, but not completely. Then I had Gerontology... All I can say is j'aime the class is awesome, the teacher is mildly new age, but she's cool and the class is gonna be awesome. Lastly, I have Intro to Psychology honors. I love it. Yay. It's gonna be super cool. The teacher has got to be like 30, tops. Its gonna be awesome.

So I get home yesterday and Cat is freaking out about her Calc II class because it isn't what she thought it would be, so I calmly told her to "Calm The Fuck Down" and she switched into my Intro To Psych class instead, which she's a lot happier with... and now I have a psych buddy. Yay. Umm... I have ten minutes to get from one end of campus to the other end between French & Gerontology. I'm not at all excited about that, it's about a 9.5 minute walk, so I'm really pushing it. I got there right on time yesterday. It should be a good class though.

Then, last night, we had a dumb Larzelere Hall meeting. And we had to leave the dorm to go to it. How much sense does that make? NONE. Anyways, it was boring and we came home and went to bed. How much fun.

Cat just humped her bed.

Oh My Effing God...

It was an interesting day. It started with waking up around 8:30 and fucking around on my computer with pictures... by the way, I uploaded a lot today on webshots, but I had to create an overflow album to store the rest, so it's under scutta33... I know, original. Anyhoo, we went rollerblading for a bit, then came back and had brunch with Ben, just a nice guy that we kept running into. It was good fun, he's a centralis freshman... that's awesome, that means full tuition and room & board paid for. Damn. Then we wasted time for a few hours and went to Mainstage. It's super fun. I'm planning on joining a few clubs, namely S.A.P.A, GSA, a volunteer program and Program Board. Which sounds like quite a load, but really isn't.

Well, at mainstage, we went on the scrambler, then we made the fatefull decision to go in a vat of bubbles. Let's just say they don't taste that good. I got tackled quite a few times, let me tell you. By 6:30, I was bubblicious. Lia drove us back to the dorm and we took lightening fast showers and shot back up there to get to the Bowling For Soup concert. We got there and another band, Changes, was playing. They played until 8, then around 8:30, Bowling For Soup came on. I went and talked to one of the girls who was working for Program Board, the group that put the show on. Half an hour later, the chairperson came up to me and asked if I wanted to start today & work backstage. Whoa! Hell yes I will work backstage. So I was on gate duty, which means you open the gate for asshole crowd surfers to get back into the crowd. This one guy escaped from some of our people and got onstage, then he accidentally hit the chairgirl that I was talking to, in the nose, so as I was ushering him outta the gate, I gave him a little help getting out, ie a nice punch square in the kidney. And yes, it was good for me.

So, after the show, we stuck around and eventually met and got autographs from the entire band. It was awesome. All four signatures on a dollar bill because I had nothing else to get them on. Fucking stupendous night.
