i don't want to go to bed..

I'm bored but I don't feel like going to bed. I just drank a glass of sorrel(sp?) For those of you who aren't Bajian(sp?) (from Barbados) its a drink made from the bark of a tree I think. It's boiled and then you add sugar N junk. It's quite tasty and seem like it would go good with rum, I don't drink, but it just seems right,lol. Well I suppose that I'll update you on the life that is me. Well I'm home for the break. It has been quite nice being home. I sleep in everyday until noon,lol, I eat yummy food, I spend time with my family, I sit around alot and just relax. Its quite nice indeed. We had the whole family here for christmas and it was really nice to have a full house and open presents and junk. I opened presents LAST this year. I'm not sure that I've ever done that before. I got a digital camera, a coal mining book, some shorts and shirts, and umm...some golf balls, and itunes gift card and..some other stuff! It was a pretty good christmas. I got my ideas for my door decs and bulletin boards while being home. It was nice to just sit here and brainstorm for a good hour, writing ideas down and such. I think I came up with some good ideas and I hope my residents like that. I've got to be a better RA this semester. I say that every semester, but its true. BTW, its 37 degrees here. WOW thats cold. Tonight I felt like sitting around and listening to sappy music. I don't really like that, so I didn't let myself slip too far into that. I'm listening to music, but its not really sappy. I WANT NEW GOLF CLUBS! I've got my eye on some, but I just have to wait until I get more money. If I wasn't completely irresposible with my money in the fall, I'd already have them. I figure I need to save up about $400 or so. I think I can do that in about 2 months if I REALLY save. I get paid $160 every two weeks. That would mean I'd have to live off of $60 every two weeks. Can it be done?! I'd like to think so. It'd also be pretty cool if I got to work at SGH a couple times a month to help. Its late and I should go to bed, my head hurts too. But honestly, I don't want to. Last night I had TWO blankets on me and I was STILL cold. That's crazy. I mean, I sleep with two blankets in my apartment, but thats because I keep the air on 68 when I sleep intentionally. I slept with two blanks out of necessity! lol. So what do you want to read here? How can I keep you more entertained? and by YOU I mean the 4-5 people who read this? Basketball season is here and I can't wait for pep band! I love pep band, its all the fun of marching band without all the suckiness of rehearsal. Plus, I get to play drumset. I can't believe that I'm going to be 23 years old in a month. I certainly don't feel like an adult. I feel like I still make dumb, teenager mistakes. I'm almost 23 yrs old and thats just weird. I remember when my brother was 23.. I was in 8th grade. Did my brother do the same things I do when he was 23? My brother is married and has a baby..will I be married and have a baby in 9 years? Geeze, things just got real up in here. And I can't believe I used the phrase "up in here." lol. Alright, I guess I'm done being serious for now. Oh BTW, the Star Wars episode of Robot Chicken is one of the funniest freaking things I've ever seen. Watch it. Enjoy it. Love it. I'm gunna go to bed now. But before I do that I'm going to go run outside just because I never get to see what its like in FREEZING weather. It's 32 degrees! Thanks for staying up late with me. I hope you had a great Christmas/ holiday season and I hope you have a fun filled new year!
love,

Dan.

i wonder if snow makes christmas more magical

the title of this blog has nothing to do with the content of this entry, other than the fact that it was question i asked myself this morning when i was driving back from the doctor's office. speaking of doctor's office, i had an upper respiratory infection. its all gone now, but im still coughing a bit and blowing my nose some. i was a coughing fiend! i sounded like an 80 yr old man who started smoking when he was 11. ya, that's how bad it was. oh ya, sorry for not posting in...forever (not that you care) I've been stupidly busy and i'm very very very happy this hellish semester is over. I did OK i guess, i know i could've done better, but thats always the case. at least i didn't fail anything, though i did get a D, which was surprising considering i BOMBED both the midterm and final. that was the hardest class ive ever taken and might ever take. the final was so hard that as soon as i looked at the essays i just wanted to turn it back in,lol. i'm sure it wouldn't have mattered. i am reeeeaaaallllly tired. anyways, back to this semester. let's reminice shall we? this was by far the most brutal semester i've had yet and i guess i ended up OK. next semester should be pretty difficult as well. band went OK. things didn't go as I planned but that isn't a bad thing. it was a learning experience and i was glad to do it again even though in the beginning i was disappointed and felt that doing band was a mistake. in the end it was worth it...but i can't wait until next year when i go to a football game and i can sit in the shade, maybe eat a hotdog, sit down. it'll be nice. i'll miss it, but it'll be nice. i'm huuuuunngry. i'm gunna go get a haircut after i get off of desk duty at noon, then maybe grab a bite to eat and possibly take a lil nappy poo. i love nappy poos. i go home a week from today and it will be nice to be home. i've got alot of work to do before then though. i'm working at sunglass hut for the rest of the week, except saturday. i'm still doing pep band and we are playing at the basketball game on saturday when the b-ball team plays UM at the bank atlantic center, it should be fun. i love pep band. alot.sooo..back to my chores. i want to have both my bulletin boards done before i leave, i want to have my room COMPLETELY cleaned. like, spotless. i'm gunna clean every part of my room really well and make it nice and neat so that when i come back in the spring i won't have to worry about it. i also want to have my bulletin boards done so i don't have to deal with that when i get back either. I think my motto, or mantra (i like mantra better) should be "do it now." because i ALWAYS put stuff off until the absolute last minute. for instance my research papers, if i did not pull 4 or 5 all nighters in the last 2 weeks of school, i would not have finished them. i was a giant idiot and i got lucky that i finished them. i know that if i want to pass this semester, i'm not going to be able to do that, especially because the end of the spring semester is ridiculously busy with checkouts and such. i joked with my friends that i wanted to choose one weekend at the end of january and stay up all night long doing our papers then,lol. wow, its hot in here! hmm..what else do i need to do before i leave?...oh yes! christmas shopping! i don't have gifts for ANYONE yet, oh, except izzy =). oh ya, i need to clean my truck out really well too, and maybe ill wash and wax it if i have time. hmm...my tummy just grumbled. that means im hungry. wow, that may have been the most useless sentence that i've EVER written in my entire life...you're welcome. alright, im f'nna pce out


laterzzzz
