So I'm sick or something.

I'm trying to decide whether to go to my last two classes or just the one. Sigh.

I've been watching baby shows all day which made me think about this girl in one of my classes which motives me to buck up and go to the last two.

It also makes me want babies.

I need to get this hygiene stuff under control. I'll just put on my scarf and call it tolerable.

I forgot how much I loved the Last Days of April.

I think I might be able to live through this paper.

My fucked up weekend
So...I went to Big Rapids this weekend to hang out with a buddy. I hitched out friday and got a ride all the way there from a cop. Well he was a CMU cop but it was still terrifying. I'm glad I didn't bring my stash. Anyway I actually beat my friend to her house and when she got there she was like "I thought you were coming last weekend." Ha ha ha, that's what you get for being friends with stoners. So anyway we proceeded to get wasted on cheap vodka and coke. And then we went to a really seedy bar cause it was her friend's birthday or something. But fuck, I didn't have to pay cover and I got to talk to random people drunk off my ass. When we got back I puked like 3 times. Nice. The only upside is I actually made it to the bathroom and didn't puke in my hair at all. I don't remember most of the rest of the night. I kept passing out and waking up and passing out again.

So then on saturday we were up at like 7:30 cause my friend had a rugby game in Kalamazoo. Katie, I would've called you if I had your number on me. I was with Prancer by the way. So anyway we get there and they needed someone to help ref the game. So I ended up doing it. Nevermind the fact that I've never even seen a rugby game before and was hungover. So anyway we got back and passed out for awhile and then watched the Tigers game cause Prancer's roomate's obsessed. By the time the game was over there were a bunch of people over but I was bored as fuck so I figured I'd just drink and smoke till I either didn't care or I passed out. Well, passing out wasn't hard to do being that I was going on about 4 hours of sleep. I don't know if I was more fucked up from weed, alcohol, or lack of sleep. But anyway it was only like 1 but Prancer was like, "You should go upstairs and pass out" So I did, until I got kicked out of bed. Yeah, that's right kicked out of bed. It's a long story. So I go downstairs and Prancer was like, well just go to sleep in my bed for awhile till I need to sleep. So I did, and it was like 8:30 when I got kicked out of her bed. I tried to sleep in the living room but it wasn't happening. So after awhile I got bored and took off.

Getting home was a total bitch. It was raining and I was freezing cold and probably looked like hell, and I did a smell check and I definitely reeked of cheap booze and weed. So it took me like an hour to get a ride but when I did it was a guy headed for Mt Pleasant, in a Cadillac no less.

Ummmm so that's my weekend in a nutshell. Jesus Christ I wrote a fuckin novel. Sorry.

We received our flight itinerary for France.

I am no longer excited. I am just scared and anxious.

We also received our finalized schedules for school. They show when we have breaks and everything.

Here is the flight plan:

I'll repost this as it gets closer to January. I will post our breaks and things later.

I'm scared.
I love you all.

I am seriously stressing about France. I just completed my housing form and I sound so boring. I like books. I like to read. I am nice and smart. I like writing and playing video games. I have siblings.

I wouldn't want me to live with me.

Plus Nick me manque. I don't know how I'll be able to survive France if I can't survive a day.

I love my mom and my dad, by the way. I called home really quickly earlier (forgot my phone charger, I'm stupid) to tell my mom that the new Nancy Drew game was out and the first thing she said was "what's wrong." After a brief discussion about how they popped out this game faster than a baby and faster than the last game, she said my dad wanted to talk to me. My dad said that the son of one of his friends died of a drug overdose last night and I shouldn't do drugs. I assured him I wouldn't and he told me the kid was in Kalamazoo even. I thought back to sirens last night then reassured my father once more before asking him if he would be joining me to see Sherman Alexie tomorrow.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, I am going to see Sherman Alexie tomorrow so if you're in town and want to come along, call me.

I am going to go to the doctor and get my woman parts checked out next week or so. I also am going to stop taking the pill once my prescription runs out. I've been moody for the past month or so and I think the meds are behind it.

Also, once my passport arrives, I will be going to Chicago to apply for my French visa. It is going to be a pain in the ass.

I love you all.

P.S. I am visiting Katie. She is awesome and she knows cool people. Some girl from an apartment next door made a boob holder that didn't fit her so she gave it to me. I am wearing it and it is cool beans.

:: Mood: thankful

So I was writing a big long essay about how cool my life is right now, but I can sum it up a lot quicker like this. There are only two possible ways my life could get better:
1. If I didn't have to go to class or study anymore.
2. If it was legalized.

Yesterday was Nick's birthday and stuff.

He's old now. A whole not-teenage-age of 20.

:: 2006 14 October :: 4.13pm

Lesson for the day...
Getting drunk in the morning is a really bad idea. Unless maybe you're a pro.

:: 2006 13 October :: 5.08pm

Oh, I forgot to mention this.

Sherman Alexie will be speaking on Wednesday at 7 at GRCC. If I am home, I will be going. Hopefully my father will also attend so I don't have to drive.

:: 2006 13 October :: 4.56pm

I should really just go home.
For the trip to France, a professor always comes along for any amount of time from a few days to a week or so. I know I haven't expressed to any of you just how stressed I was about this particular situation but I feel that now that it has been resolved, I should fill you in.

The two candidates for the journey were the only two French professors. I will not name any names because this is THE INTERNET and my life is on public display. But I really wanted one professor to take us and I really didn't want the other one.

You see, I had heard stories about this other professor. These stories included multiple accounts of this professor leaving people behind and losing both people and luggage.

I wanted the professor who took people around on a bus all over France and bought them tea at cafes in Barcelona.

Well this week we were told that we would find out who was taking us. Today in class, at the very end, almost sheepishly, we found out who it would be. Thank goodness it turned out to be the one everyone wanted. You don't know how relieved everyone was today when it was announced. There were shouts, cheers and applause. I made sure to call my mom.

In other news, today began Fall Break. On Monday or so, I will be going to see Katie. I will return on Wednesday or Thursday and will work on Friday. I have papers to write so it won't be much fun.

I love you all.

Learn THE TRUTH about Dick DeVos:
"We're holding our Spring formal and my date is the Truth. Tonight we're going all the way." But before I begin, I'd like to apologize because I just realized that I am being mean to many republicans out there with this entry and that's just not who I am. I'd also like to apologize to Katie's roommate because I just discovered that she wrote this. I'm sorry.

I love you all.

Lesson for the day:
Taking sudafed to concentrate on homework can actually work, or it can backfire and make you want to go running. Proceed with caution.

Who is driving?
BEAR IS DRIVING!

:: 2006 10 October :: 3.03pm

I heart my roommate. I just thought you should know.

:: 2006 7 October :: 11.09pm

My alarm clock and the clock on my computer aren't sychronized and i'ts seriously freaking me out. Cause when my alarm clock said it was 11:07 I was playing guitar until 11:11 and my computer clock said it was 11:08 but at 11:08 I was still playing guitar and I swear to god I thought I was playing the same song for like 10 minutes. And now the computer clock says its 11:11. God I'm so confused.

Ok Go is a no go because my car is crap. Stupid college education.

Instead, I shall be going to Red Flannel! Yay for small town celebrations.

I love you all.

P.S. I have been so tired lately that I slept through one of my classes today. I went over to Nick's to take a nap and fell asleep from 11 to 1:15 when I had to go to work. And I'm still tired. It's because of this France STRESS and midterm STRESS. I hate being stressed because I get tired and snappy.

P.P.S. I saw Katie today and I am fulfilled as a human being. I have reached enlightenment and it is named Kittie Katie. I missed her oodles.

P.P.P.S. I found a whole bag full of Christian romance novels I haven't read yet. I am going to go read then sleep.

If Dethklok was an actual band, and not a creation of Adult Swim, I'd listen to them.

[edit 11:32]
Why would someone give a hair salon flyer to a person with dreadlocks? I am so confused.
