This weekend was pretty awesome. Gemma and I had planned to go see Live Nude People With Clothes On. I was just hanging around before that in the evening. I was talking to Christine on the phone, and she decided to drive down to visit. Gemma and I went to the show, and it was great. I really enjoy seeing Live Nude People. (That sounds funny if you don’t know that they’re an improv group.) Christine got here around 12:15. It was really nice to see her again; it had been a long time. Later that night, a few of us decided to go to Del Taco, and then we watched movies.
On Saturday I took Gemma’s movie back (and Rebecca’s too, which I wasn’t supposed to… whoops) and then went to Starbucks with Christine. We got back and did nothing for a while. Then, Gemma, Christine, Toni and I went to Jack-in-the-Box for lunch. I saw my mom, Pete, and James this weekend too. Christine and I went to my mom’s for dinner on Saturday. We had tasty steaks and watched I, Robot. It was surprisingly good, despite what Christine thinks, lol. After getting back, I hung out with Gemma for a while.
On Sunday morning, Christine left. I spent most of the day doing homework. Stupid, stupid homework.
And then there’s Christine and Vince. ^___^
Great weekend.

Today was really great. I slept through most of ICS lecture along with Andy. We all had lunch, and then I came back to the dorm. I fooled around a little and studied for calc out in the common room with Russ. I fucked up on the quiz but probably still got a B. My dad called to let me know about a Tungsten C on eBay… I asked him to bid on it, and we won at $212. That’s pretty cool.
I went to Target with Russell. I bought some sope, bread (for Will, lol), and a safe. I attempted to buy a tamagotchi, but they were sold out. I also picked up Office Space and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Yup.
We watched Office Space and went out for pizza. When we got back, I ended up playing some video games with Will and Patrick. Patrick beat me in an All-Cup tour. I started ripping some of Will’s music and went to Blockbuster with Gemma. After we got back, I slowly working on reading/highlighting Tan’s essay while talking with everybody. Gemma left around 12:30, which was pretty early. I spent the rest of the night just hanging out and talking. I got iTunes working pretty well and really enjoy it now. Gabby and Toni went out for food. I’m happy and full. It was a lot of fun. Now… I’ll go slack off some more.

I saw The Incredibles with Gemma on Friday. The theater was about three miles away, and we had to walk there, but it was nice. The movie was really good, better than I expected. A lot of people saw it this weekend actually. Afterwards, we went to JACKshrimp. We had some very tasty gulf shrimp. The walk back was really nice too… the stars were out, and the sky was beautiful.
Will got his Alienware desktop this weekend. It’s 3.6 GHz P4 with 1 GB of RAM. It’s a nice system, but he hasn’t got it fully working yet. I met his parents, and they’re really nice. They took Will, me, and a couple other guys to dinner at the hotel they were staying at. Oh God, was that a good meal. I had shrimp cocktails, a very fresh salad, a porterhouse steak, and a chocolate fudge cake. I wish I could explain how great the meal was. His parents are really cool too. They said we could go with Will home for the weekend sometime.
After dinner, we went to Sports Chalet. They wanted to buy ping pong paddles. Will actually bought a $60 one. I bought a $2.99 just because I wanted to buy a cheap one. I’m not even any good at ping pong. We then played some Mario Kart followed by Mario Party 5. I came in 4th behind Will, Patrick, and a CPU. I also took turns getting calls from Gemma and Christine all night. Speaking of calls, I paid my phone bill and changed my plan to have 2000 anytime minutes. $120/month bill now though, heh.

I stayed awake for the first half of lecture. We played Monopoly and then I played Tetris. And then I fell asleep. Jacobson was talking about errors and how in some programs, such as games, you want to try to hide the error so the game doesn’t get interrupted. He said something about being on the 47th floor with a few beholders in front of you. I thought it was awesome that he made a Dungeons & Dragons reference.
After eating lunch, I came back to the dorm to hang out with Gemma, Russell, Jay, and Toni. I later played a little Mario Kart and went to math discussion.
This evening, we walked to Starbucks and Del Taco. Very tasty. I went with Jay, Toni, Jon C., Vince, and Stefanie. Jon and I skipped for a while on the way back before he gave me a ride on his back. When we got back, a group of us hung out on the ground of the other suite. HP, Adam, and Kim joined us. Then I hung out in Jon’s room with him and HP. Very fun night.
Evenstar’s gonna start playing assassination next week. It’s going to be $1 to enter, and the winner gets all the money. We’re going to play with socks. I also signed up for NationStates.net. We’ll see how it goes. Anyways, a very fun night.

Voting took a long time yesterday. It was worth it though. Very exciting ^_^ I went with Gemma, Allison, and Rebecca. We played Contact in line… a very strange game. Later, we played Monopoly on my Clie. That game always reminds me of Carrie, heh. I’m talking with Jackie right now… in our music class, she accidently unplugged the projector while we were watching a movie. Then, she was fooling around with it, talking about how she had unplugged it, and she unplugged it again. Very funny. Another time, I laughed so hard that I fell out of my desk. There was a college student in the class that thought Andrei was gay and thought that he was always checking him out. This guy also made fun of William a lot. Good times.

Friday night, I went to the engineering house for a Halloween BBQ with Gemma. I had a good time. We went to see Live Nude People With Clothes On, which is a campus improv group, afterwards. It was great. I wish I could do that stuff =D There was a guy wearing a thong a small cloth… he was Hairless Potter. It was… odd… but funny. There was another kid who tried to play up being emo when he was brought on stage for something. He had emo glasses on, and when he pulled his hood on and gave a pouty face, it was a hilarious. Yeah I can’t really explain it obviously. Good times. After the show, Gemma and I hung out for a little bit.
Today (Saturday), I went to my mom’s. She cooked chicken in wine with mushrooms and onions, which is one my favorite meals. We watched Dawn of the Dead too. It’s an entertaining movie but not very good. Pete gave me a cool LBC Sublime hoodie, and my mom gave me a pull-over from her hospital. When I got home, I talked on the phone with Gem until I kept falling asleep. By the time I walked back to my room though, I was awake enough to make this post. I think I’m going to bed now. G’night.

Gemma rented Mystic River and School of Rock on Friday. A group of us watched it out in the common room. On Saturday, my mom took me for my eye exam. My sight’s not perfect, but it’s not bad enough for me to need glasses. He recommended I come back in about a year. I had lunch with Mom, Pete, and James, which was fun. I bought two bottles of shampoo, two bottles of conditioner, and some sunglasses at Target. Late Saturday night, Jay and I went with Gabby for Mexican food. Alberto’s. Very, very tasty. I wish I had one of those burritos right now. Sunday, I spent most of the day studying. I went to In-n-Out with Gem and Allison though. It was a nice break. After I finished everything except studying for the calc midterm, I went on a walk with Gemma just around Middle Earth. I had fun 🙂 I took a shower afterwards and studied calculus. I think I’ll do pretty well on the midterm today. Okay, bye.
Oh, I forgot! I got my sample ballot and polling place information. I’m very happy =D I don’t know how I’m going to vote for everything yet, but I’m voting Libertarian.

My dad can stand in the middle of the house, look up, and see the sky. He says that a lot of his stuff is ruined. I found out when I called to wish him a happy birthday. I have to get him money for the dog, but I don’t think I’ll have it in time. I don’t know when this check comes or where it’s sent. My dad did win the ring he wanted to get me from eBay. It’s located here.
I really haven’t felt great lately. Not really sick though. I don’t know. I ditched two hours of class today, slept through (but in) one hour of class, and actually was awake for one hour. I hardly ate lunch… I don’t know if the food was bad or if it was me. Other people seemed to be okay with the food.

I hung out with Gemma this morning, which was very nice. Around two, I went to Pippin to eat lunch. It was the first time I had eaten alone since I got here. After talking with Will for a while back at the dorm, I left for writing class. I had already missed CSE21 discussion, lab, and Math 2D lecture. When I got back, we had mail. I got my check/debit card from Wells Fargo. That’s good =) I spent the day talking, reading Angels & Demons, and playing Final Fantasy II (USA). They put up a flyer that basically said “don’t use these terms:” followed by a bunch of derogatory terms and then “use these terms:” followed by words like “kind,” “team player,” etc. We stood in the hallway adding terms. I went to dinner with Gemma, Allison, and Rebecca. It’s always so much fun hanging out with them. The crab soup was horrible, so I tried adding all sorts of stuff to it. Made me feel sick. Came back, took a shower, and then pushed my wardrobe against the bed. Now I can set my laptop on top and use it from bed. In fact, that’s what I’m doing now. It’s great.
Time to make a new paragraph? lol. I talked to Joseph for a bit today. It was cool getting to talk with him. I called Herbert too. I haven’t talked with him in a very long time, and I’m really glad I got a chance to. Not to be sappy or anything man (since I know you read WebPageless), but you’ve been a good friend and I hope you stay one. Anyways, I’m off.
