Ok guys, I have a favor to ask of someone...
For a class I'm taking this semester I am supposed to write a paper where I write one paragraph and then someone else writes another one. Then someone else writes the next one... so here it goes.
“There’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you,” she said. As if I could hear her over the sound of the jet engines during take off. This was the third time she had tried to tell me that today and yet in a way I don’t think she really wanted me to know. We were on our way to Seattle to spend the holidays with my parents just like any other of the close to thirty years we had been married. This time it was a little different, Robby wasn’t with us. It was the first year he hadn’t come with us, what with him having a new job and having just graduated from college. The past four years had been a lot quieter without Robby being home. The house being so quiet most of the time, meals with just the two of them, gave it all a somber feel. The plane leveled off now, reaching its “cruising altitude” as the captain announced to the passengers. It didn’t bother me that she had something to tell me.
And heres the next paragraph which I wrote.
She said she wasn’t feeling well so she went to the bathroom. It was cloudy outside so there wasn’t much I could see from my window. I enjoyed flying but always had to have a window seat. It wasn’t normal for her to get sick on the plane but perhaps it was the bumpy take off that jarred her. It was a long flight to Seattle from Chicago, not the longest I had been on but certainly long enough. I tried to close my eyes for a bit but then she came back. She didn’t look to good, so I asked her how she felt but she dismissed my concern right away. It was what she usually did anyways so I wasn’t too concerned. In the seats in front of us a young couple were traveling with what I assume was there first child. He looked to be about two years old, ah the terrible twos. Behind us was a businessman, a young woman and an old woman who I assumed was her mother. In our row the third seat was empty. We had bought a ticket for Robby but at the last minute plans changed and he couldn’t get off from work.
so... if you want to and have the time you can either write a paragraph to follow the first one... or to follow the second one. Thank you.

Well things are going well I suppose.
I'm doing a lot better in classes so far.
Listening to some new music.
ie: Forgive Durden, The Hush Sound, Cute Is What We Aim For.
Reading some new books.
ie: nothing really... just short stories.
This semester is almost half over which is weird because it feels like I just got back.
The SST 06' itinerary is out kinda... looks like Greece, Romania, Croatia, and Ireland.
Should be a good time.
I come home the 12th of April... on a train.
And go back to school the 17th of April... on a train.
That should be a good time.
Lost is tonight... yay for Lost.
I would have to say I am content.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Just content.

Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.
You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.
Don't worry - everyone know's it's not easy being green.
Just remember, time's fun when you're having flies! |
I think thats pretty funny.

So... its almost Thanksgiving... and that means its almost Christmas... and that means this semester is almost over... and that means no more classes for a month... and that means more time to hang out the people who I haven't seen in like two months...and thats enough of the and thats stuff.
In other news... I preordered my copy of Bullet in a Bible today... I really wish I could have seen it in the theaters or better yet could have seen them one more time live. But hopefully I'll be going to see AGAINST ME! in NYC Dec. 2nd... if I do that will be great... I really need to get out and see more live shows. Maybe I'll see some bands over winter break.
Schools going ok I guess... its been tough with all the hard courses I've been taking but somehow I'll manage... I got myself into this I can get myself out. Life is pretty good I guess... I've been keeping in shape which is a plus.
Two weeks and I'll be home for thanksgiving... leave some comments if you want to get together... or else... you know...

Top Ten Ways to Freak Out Your Roommate
10) Collect potatoes. Paint faces on them and give them names. Name one after your roommate. Separate your roommate's potato from the others. Wait a few days, and then bake your roommate's potato and eat it. Explain to your roommate, ''She just didn't belong.''
9) Move everything to one side of the room. Ask your roommate if she knows how much an elephant weighs, and look at the floor on the empty side of the room with concern.
8) Draw a tiny black line on your nose. Make it bigger every day. Look at it and say, ''The hair, it's growing. Growing!''
7) Buy some knives. Sharpen them every night. While you're doing so, look at your roommate and mutter, ''Soon, soon....''
6) Collect hundreds of pens and pile them on one side of the room. Keep one pencil on the other side of the room. Laugh at the pencil.
5) Tell your roommate, ''I've got an important message for you.'' Then pretend to faint. When you recover, say you can't remember what the message was. Later on, say, ''Oh, yeah, I remember!'' Pretend to faint again. Keep this up for several weeks.
4) While your roommate is out, glue your shoes to the ceiling. When your roommate walks in, sit on the floor, hold your head, and moan.
3) Make a sandwich. Don't eat it, leave it on the floor. Ignore the sandwich. Wait until your roommate gets rid of it, and then say, ''Hey, where the heck is my sandwich!?'' Complain loudly that you are hungry.
2) Every time your roommate walks in yell, ''Hooray! You're back!'' as loud as you can and dance around the room for five minutes. Afterwards, keep looking at your watch and saying, ''Shouldn't you be going somewhere?''
1) Talk back to your Rice Krispies. All of a sudden, act offended, throw the bowl on the floor and kick it. Refuse to clean it up, explaining, ''No, I want to watch them suffer.''

Well I realized tonight that I dont like the fall for some reasons...
I love the way everything looks in the fall and the weather most of the time however...
The fall seems to be when a lot of bad things happen. Nothing good really happens in the fall.
Especially for my dad.
Last year he got sick in the fall. That wasnt very good.
This fall he lost his job because the company hes worked for for like 20 years folded after Katrina.
Now hes getting sick again.
Thats it for now... I'm sure I'll find more things that dissappoint me but thats it for now.
I wish...
when I call home and talk to my Dad...
I wouldn't have to talk about his health.

Doug needs to receive themes as well as the day's schedule one to two weeks in advance.
"Doug Needs Money".
DOUG NEEDS TO DEFINE HIMSELF
Doug needs a leader to stop in around noon
Doug needs some dental work and ends up with more pain than he bargained
Doug needs a good rebuking
Doug needs to check with Joe to make sure all documents from the December...
Doug needs to give voters more credit
I think Doug needs some backup or next time he goes on vacation...
That's why I say Doug needs to get traded.

Well lets see last weekend was great... this weekend on the other hand...
sucked. Big time...
I really don't feel so great right now... its like a sick feeling or anything.
I just don't feel happy... I think somethings wrong but I don't really know what it is.
Hopefully everything will work out. This week is going to be really long.
I can feel it.
Back to my horrible weekend... I did absolutely nothing. It was really depressing.
I don't even feel relaxed in the slightest. I just feel depressed.
This year better be good. I'm gonna try to fix things and hopefully everything will work itself out.
If not...
... oh well.

Well this past weekend was Labor Day which I usually spend at a family party up in Buffalo.
However due to high gas prices and crazy holiday weekend airfare rates I couldn't make it this year.
So I spent the weekend with Larry, his family and his Aunt's family in their vacation house in the Poconos.
I was probably one of the best weekends I have had in a really long time.
We didn't really do a whole lot but it was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it.
I really have to do something to pay them all back for such a great weekend.
Anyways now I'm back at school and school is just getting harder and harder.
But I'll live I think. I have class in a little bit. And I'm not sure what I'm doing tonight...
Oh heres this thing I got asked to do:
1. I Will Follow You Into The Dark - Death Cab For Cutie
2. Time To Waste - Alkaline Trio
3. Here I Am - The Explosion
4. Don't Lose Touch - Against Me!
5. I Came As A Rat (Long Walk Off A Short Dock) - Modest Mouse
6. This Is Such A Pity - Weezer
7. How Much Longer - Eve 6
8. Shadow Stabbing - Cake
9. Under The Tracks - Creeper Lagoon
10. I Remember You - Chixdiggit
Well thats all I have for now... so until next time...

Well lets see... last time I wrote was before my trip which went well but I don't feel like going into detail...
If you would like to know about the trip just leave a message or IM me. Anyways...
So this summer was fun I guess, I had a month off in which I spent a lot of time with Bob Megan Andy and Billy.
It was a good time and I really enjoyed it. I also made some money which is a good thing.
Now its time for me to start spending it again.
Anyways, it is now almost September and today was my first day of classes back here at school.
I got here on Friday for orientation which was boring and then I spent the weekend at my roommate Larry's house.
His family is very nice and I enjoy spending time with him.
We are rooming together on the 4th floor of E&F and have a great view of the water. I'm happy with it.
So schools back in session and so far so good I guess. Its gonna be a tough semester but I'll make it. I hope...
So sorry for not updating in a very long while but I here I am now updating for...
anyone?
Leave me some comments...

Ok... well I'm going away,for a lil over 2 months.
I'll be sailing the high seas and visiting such places as Antwerp(Belgium),Istanbul(Turkey),Lisbon(Portugal),and San Miguel(Acores).
Unfortunately this trip takes place during the summer which is time I could be spending at home but come'on...
I'm 18 and I've got a chance to visit Europe even if it is only for a small amount of time.
Hopefully it will be a good time.. but I know there will be people I will miss while I'm gone.
I guess I'll just have to make up for being gone by having lots of fun while I'm home in August.
I'll have a lot of catching up to do when I get back, thats for sure.
So tomorrow begins cruise... Wish me luck.
PS. I will have access to email while I'm on my trip so feel free to email me at:
Greend.tses@super-hub.com
You can do this anytime between May 21st and July 21st.
Goodbye and have a good summer to all...

q & a
the rules:
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions
I answered dann (unprotectedrex)'s questions
1) do you actually like your college? really?
Well to be honest, yes I like my college but I think I'm missing out on some of the normal college things.
2) would you ever consider getting any type of "modification"? if so, what?
Well if it weren't for the whole militeristic college thing I think I might get a "modification". Wait, is tattoo a form of "modification"?
Ha I just answered a question with a question... kinda sorta.
3) what ever happened to billy and the killers? are you guys still making music or what?
Well hopefully this summer for the short period of time I will be home, Billy and the Killers will start back up. But for now nothing knew... disappointing I know.
4) are you going to grow your hair back over the summer?
Well right now I'm thinking about not cutting my hair or shaving the whole summer but we'll see. I probably will wind up shaving... but I'm def growing out my hair.
5) where do you think you'll end up living after college?
Here comes a shocker... I plan on living... well how can I put this, not here. One of my goals as of now is to live in Europe, perhaps Spain or Italy. We'll see. It all depends on the way things go the next few years.

Well I've been listening to some new music...
Some good bands: Daphne Loves Derby, The Academy Is..., Gym Class Heroes, Gratitude.
School is going by really fast, break was last week.
I guess it was good, it went by fast and I didn't really get a whole lot done...
...not like I had much to do.
At this point I'm just gonna stop updating cuz its not really doin me any good to update anymore.

Well todays post is all about nothing.
Been a while since I've updated so I won't burden you all with what I've done in the time being.
I go home for the first time in two months tomorrow.
Then I'll be back here on Monday night for another 2-4 months.
If anyones interested in looking up some good bands check out these:
Daphne Loves Derby, The Academy Is..., Gym Class Heroes, Gratitude.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm doing the right thing, but then again whos to say what I'm doing is right in the first place.
I think I'm doing bad this semester grade wise... which is a bad thing.
I'm gonna discuss maybe dropping a class or two with my parents.
I only have until April 1st to do it so I'd better get on it.
Boring post, I know...
... If only life was like the movies.

Well tonight I have watch from 00:00 to 04:00, not too bad I guess, it could be worse.
Anyways, we got our midterm grades today for most our classes.
The only classes I'm having trouble in our the four credit ones... of course.
Other than that I can't complain a whole lot.
This weekend is MUG Ship Weekend, so I gotta stay on campus, nothing new really.
Hopefully I will learn a bit this weekend. Next week isn't looking bad and then its almost time to come home again.
Before ya know it I will be around the world visiting great places like Lisbon, Antwerp, Halifax, and Turkey.
Then I'll be home for a bit I guess, until its time to do it all over again.
Back into the old school routine.
Sometimes I think it would be better just to do things the hard way, the long way.
To just go out and get a job and work my way up and learn things outside of the classroom.
But then again I suppose this is faster and more efficient, even if it is becoming costly.
But ya know what they say, life isn't free.
Well thats enough rambling on for one entry, I still gotta get a few things together for watch.
So until next time...

Well I had a nice update for ya'll but LJ was gay...
anyways, this weekend sucks, I've done close to nothing.
I guess the truth is at the moment I am very dissappointed in myself.
For many reasons, many that even I can't explain. I just wish I was 8 again.
I know I've said it before but I really wish thats how things were.
