and Other Delusions of Grandeur

It’s mine. You can’t have any…

Nothing too exciting in the world this week. Last weekend was amazing though, so I figured I’d give you all the run down…

I went up to Penn State Univeristy to visit Michelle and I can’t even explain how amazing the adventure was. I got to go to my first college football game, and it wasn’t just any game. The fans (and I’m one of them) of PSU were absolutely insane. I also got a tour of the campus, a picture with the Nittany Lion and I enjoyed a lot of good time with Michelle. We had creamery ice cream (it’s true, the best in the world) and I got to see what downtown State College turns into on a game weekend.

Sadly, I couldn’t stay there. It kinda made me realize (all over again) how unsastisfied I am at CMU. But you all have heard me complain about that endlessly already and I don’t feel like doing it again, so I’ll spare you.

This week was uneventful. I had a Statics test which I did OK on, and I got to see a new episode of HOUSE M.D. which is always a bonus. I’m kinda addicted, ha ha.

This weekend will be a lot of fun. For the first time since labor day I’ll be going home. Josh will be in and we are going to get working on his new car hopefully, so that will be a lot of fun. Michelle will also be in, so my Saturday night will be devoted to her. It’s great being able to see her as often as I do. She goes to school 136 miles away, so I feel great anytime I get to see her.

I don’t think there is anything new or interesting to speak off… Life at CMU is a whole lot of boring. I think I’ll leave you nice people with a nice quote from house. ENJOY:

“Hello, sick people. My name is Dr. Gregory House. You can call me Greg. That lovely ray of sunshine over there is Dr. Lisa Cuddy. She administers this whole hospital and is to busy to deal with you people. I am a board certified diagnostician with a double specialty of infectious diseases and nephrology. I’m also the only doctor employed at this clinic who is here against his will… But not to worry, becaue for most of you this job could be done by a monkey and a bottle of Motrin. Speaking of which, if you’re particularly annoying, you may seem me reach for this. This is Vicodin. It’s mine. You can’t have any. And no, I do not have a pain management problem, I have a pain prolem. But who knows? Maybe I’m too stoned to tell.”

My hero…

Weekend Update

I didn’t do that much this weekend but I managed to keep myself occupied.

I went to Aldi’s to get some more food for the apartment. I’ve basically have been eating baby carrots and bananas. It’s good to be cheap once in a while. I also stopped at Pearle Vision to get new contacts, but my perscription is up, so they refused to give me more without a pricy examination. In other words, fuck Pearle Vision.

I also bought a new copy of HALO2 becuase my original copy wasn’t working (toothpaste does not fix scratches, contrarty to the myth), so now I can go online with Josh and stuff. I also went to Best Buy with Ryan so we could buy a wireless router for the apartment.

Umm… today, nothign is really on the docket. I’ll proabably tackle my statics homework at some point.

This week will be pretty boring, but next weekend, I might be going up to visit Michelle at PSU, which will be cool. I miss her a lot and I can’t wait to see her.

New things this week

1) Steve Irwin died, when he tragically got stabbed in the chest by a Stingray. OMG!

2) The new Facebook is nothing short of disgusting. It’s invasive, juvenile, and it’s almost as bad as MySpace.

3) I still don’t have internet in my apartment. Sigh.

4) Classes are next to impossible. Penn State transfer apps are looking better and better.

5) Did I mention that I am disgusted by the new Facebook.
