Are you happy now?

"If you love the music, sing the words loud
If you know the lyrics, scream them and shout
You can feel at home here,
you'e all among friends
So let' dance 'tl the music ends
Let' dance 'tl the music ends"
~Epic Hero


I've come to the conclusion that people who wear headphones while they walk, are much happier, more confident, and more beautiful individuals than someone making the solitary drudge to class without acknowledging their own interests and power. Even those who walk/run for fitness tend to have a different look of concentration based on whether or not they're in tune with their tunes.

I went months without listening to music. Because not having my ipod with and it being in the shop forever I have become one of those who have forgotten their power. But I finally have a relationship with my ipod again THANK GOD. This handy tool box of music has brought a variety of music back into my life in ways that make me the happiest person on campus. I finally am able to use my headphones again. Headphones with music playing makes me smile. Smiles evoke confidence. Confidence provokes the lack of fear. No fear equals anything is possible. I see it in everyone else with headphones on. I'm not sure whether they're rocking out to an audio book, listening to their prof. lecture before a big test (yeah right), listening to a homemade recording of their latest sexual escapade, truly feeling the newest backstreet boys album, or learning Japanese. The secret remains with the listener. I love that mystery. And maybe that's why every person who passes me who is engulfed in their own giant land of imagination. I love seeing people smile and walk around without a care in the world. Even the guy with the cd player who has to keep his steps light so as not to skip his ancient cd's is having a better time than the guy who is trying to make it to class while remembering what the formula was for newton's second law.

I was plagued by a bad shuffle this moring. I hate when that happens. I was on my walk. Minding my own smiles and enjoying the smell of spring, meanwhile making a list of what to delete ASAP on my ipod. Each time I advanced the shuffle command another hideous song that I'm tired of hearing came on. Usually my ipod is able to tell what mood I am in and what would be the best songs to play, today was not one of them. It might be a sort of revenge it is playing on me because I sent it away for over to months to get worked on. Maybe we'll be more in sync tomorrow...

I have to go home tonight because I have 3 doctors appointments on tuesday morning and an interview to be the manager at the pool at noon. AHH wish me luck... It'll be a fun ride home tonight in the dark but good news is that I finally have my ipod back and it works!!

The death of me...

Hopefully I will be able to leave north carolina because if I don't leave here it'll be because i'm in jail for murder. I am going to kill someone. I can not take it anymore.....ARGH!

It's a bird, it's a PLANE!!

"I'm leavin' on a jet plane, and I don't know when I'll be back again."

I am off to the land where being white is the minority and where everyone is y'all. I'm off to the land where there is winter flowers that bloom and there is no snow on the ground for more than a day. I am off to the land where my family is going to call home. I'm off to the land where I can wear my shorts and tee and not be cold. I am off to a land where my new house is already built, framed, and has a roof. I am off to the land of Greensboro, North Carolina.

I leave on a plane out of Green Bay to the other land of green at 2:40 today. I have lots to get done still like packing everything. For some reason I can't find my two magazines that I bought for the trip. Hopefully they'll show up when I look harder. (I must admit writing this is tough with a metal splint on your finger) Today I not only get to see my whole family but I also will get to see my friend travis. Travis is home on break for 15 days and it just happens I have a long layover in Minneapolis and can meet up with him for a little bit. It'll be awesome to see him, I'm super pumped. I get to fly out from Minneapolis to Greensboro with my brother Ian and one of my best friends Sarah. It's going to be a fun ride. I don't know how much I will be online when I am there but when I can I'll try to write in here to update y'all. I must get going I have a meeting with my advisor to sign my sheet for my major. Hope everyone has a fun and safe spring break!

something's missing....from my pinky finger.

"I'm not alone, I wish I was. Cause then I'd know I was down because I couldn't find a friend around, to love me like they do right now. Something's missing, and I don't know how to fix it. Something's missinging and I don't know what it is. No I don't know what it is. Something's diffrent. And I don't know what it is."~John Mayer

My pinky finger is certified as broken. I've chipped off a piece of bone in the second joint. So something really is missing from my finger. This weekend was a very fun yet very crappy weekend. At times things were awesome and then at others things sucked majorly. All I have to keep telling myself is that in less than 4 days I am going to be in nice, sunny, warm north carolina with the people I love. From what I know this week is going to be easy, no homework except physics, and absolutly no tests!! I would write more but it's time for me to head off to breakfast in the nic with Timmy and get out of this expos hole of boredom.

what's the shape of a current carrying wire

"I don't like violence."
"Why is that?"
"Because if someone tried to hurt me I would kill them." ~Brandon when talking to Erica about violent people

I hurt my pinky pretty hard core playing basketball last night. It's bruised and swollen to about the size of a hot dog. I think it might be broken but what can you do? I would like to see a small finger cast put on it, that'd be funny. I get to go home tomorrow but there's a lot of things that I have to get through before I get to see the fam. I have a first aid test today and a huge physics test tomorrow. I guess i feel like I'm never going to get it done. But like my mom says how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. So I'm going to start eating
