So I got my laptop and it's working great so far. I love the new technology these days. Weekend was good. We grilling with a few friends at a local park. Played some frisbee, roller skated around, etc. Then got some ice cream and went home. Looks like this week is going to be a laid back week. Got one paper to do, which shouldn't be that hard and a little research thing that shouldn't take a long time. I need to e-mail or mail something to my friend in California. I said I would like a month ago and I haven't. I feel kinda bad. He's a good friend. I'll try and get something out his way soon. I'm listening to some old, old Japanese music right now as I write in here. Brings back a lot of memories, let me tell ya. That's all I have to report now. It's getting close to the point where we will be moving back into Chris' old house. Hopefully. Anyway, see ya.

I think this is the second blog entry that I've ever done from work. That's right. Well, since last week I've taken a few tests, and the big news for this blog is that I sold my old laptop to my Mom and I just got a new one that is supposed to be delivered to my house this morning. It's a Compaq refurb of a model that I wanted and it was $250 cheaper as well as it had more RAM. I just hope that the "refurb" part doesn't make the unit less efficient. Other than that, I do have another test today and a take home test due on Friday which I'll probably start tomorrow or so. I work better under pressure. Things have been VERY hectic lately though. I don' t know why. Seems like it's that time of year or month or whatever where the stars line up or something and virtually every important event in your life at the time happens simultaneously. I've seen Dawn of the Dead (I think I wrote that in my last blog) and a couple of days ago I saw Jersey Girl, which I really liked. I always like those father/mother - daughter kind of movies. I also finally changed my major on Thursday to NR Recreation and Tourism and was, for the first time, able to get into all the classes that I wanted in. 18 credits at the moment. I may drop one class, making it 15, but we'll see. I may be able to handle it considering one of the class is a 101 class, so it should be THAT hard. But then again, way back in the day, this Physics class, I think it was a 141 class, was the hardest class on this Earth. I am also going to see if my Mom's old laptop can find its way to Laura since she needs it for studying abroad and stuff. I'm sure it's not a problem, but that laptop is damn near 7-8 years old, making it an ancestor in technological terms. But, it IS still a laptop which can be used, so. Shannon is out for the next week for a wedding or something. Seems like this time of year, everyone's getting married. A friend of mine is also going to two other weddings in May I think. Why doesn't anything get married in the Winter? It's not like it's that bad. Casey is going to be studying in Alaska for next semester. That would be cool. Chris has been buying some new stuff for his car too. Having troubles, but we're still about the same in terms of speed. Ha, go Honda power I say. The next movie that I'm probably going to see in the theater is probably Troy, but anything can happen. My website is also doing good. Thousands of visitors a month is good for me. All and all, things are hectic, but fine in my life. I'm gonna jet. Laters.

April 5th already. Not much again has changed. The last few days I wrote out a mass e-mail, each one different of course, to all my friends in my address book. About half of them wrote back (the real friends, as they say) and they're doing good. It seems like everyone is due to graduate this year sometime. A few are going to graduate school, and a few don't know what they'll be doing. Around this time, I think a lot of people go through this phase of "what should I do now"? I mean, yeah, school has been really fun (college). I met lots of new people, made lots of new and good friends, and heck I've even learned a thing or two. Do I really want to finish up college? I don't know. A part of me says yeah, a part of me says keep going to school. Maybe because I want to avoid what's really out there. Who knows. I still have a good year or so left, so I'm not in a hurry, but I should start thinking about the future. Hell, I'm already 22! Laura is going to graduate school, dunno where yet though. Chris told Ben that he should find a new place for next year and that has been a big ordeal too. The newest thing recently for me that I increased my boost for my turbo to 7psi. :) If you know what that means. Other than that, I haven't been working too much, since my school schedule is fucked up, but that's cool. I have 2 months left in this apartment and then it's probably back to Chris' house. Times are changing quick! My website has also been doing great. More and more visitors each month. But yeah, overall, things have been damn hectic for me the last couple of weeks. And this stupid ass cold is lingering a bit and allergies are kicking my ass. In 6 hours I'll be leaving for Longmont for an ortho appointment. Another one of those 2-hour total drive time for 10 minutes at the office. Waste of time and money if you ask me. So, what's been on my mind lately? Not a whole lot, really. Too many things going on to think at all. The Daylight Saving Time is also weird and hard to get adjusted to for some reason this year. I apparently slept from around 12pm last night to 5pm or 6pm. I totally thought I slept to only like 11am, but I guess not. Damn, I've never slept that much either. I think my body just caved and had to catch back up with me you know? Again this week is sort of hectic too. 3 tests I believe, with my first being today. A group meeting too so I have to finish my part before Wednesday. Damn, I hate it when it gets all busy. Anyway, I better head out. It's going to be a loooong day today. Laura's sister and bf are coming up to see the campus as well. I'll be accompanying dinner only, though. Well, I'll write again when I get the chance.
