so today, i woke up and i think i already said this but i read my tea leaves and found a tree which is supposed to mean improvement.  i hope so.   last night was made into much fun thanks to sarah's and my vidoe broadcast tea party.  wonderous fun  (:3 ::that is my little muffin friend thing that i just made.

so anyway, i had a test today in chemistry and i have a sneaking suspicion that i did really really bad on it.  i ran out of time and i had to just fill in some that i had skipped over for the time being.  then i had a chem lab after that.  it was literally the same lab as last week but set up different and we had to use the "bunsen burners on steroids" as Dr. Wickenheiser calls them.  

i came back to the room after chemistry and realized that i dont have english class today...so instead i am laying on the floor and updating.  i went to the library to get a picture laminated and i asked the girl, i asked "hey miss...miss, can you laminate this here picture for me?" and she told me that i had to wait for the machine to heat up for about 10 minutes.  so, i went through the library and looked through some random books.  the floor that i was on was mostly composed of journals so they were pretty boring.  nevertheless, i found interest in a large compilation of "LOOK" magazine issues from somewhere between 1960 and 1974.   i was looking at the old ads and articles and i have come to realize that most of the ads from that era are all about cigarettes.  "WITH ACTIVE CARBON!"  it must have been before we knew that inhaling active carbon and tar just isnt good for you:)  hmm....    anyway! i went to the machine after a while and told the girl that it was ready so we laminated the picture.  then she asked for 45 cents and i handed her my cat card (since the only way you can pay for [printing or copying is with that card) and she told me that they did not accept that.  so...i had to walk all the way down the hill back to my room and find some change and then walk back up the hill to the LRC and pay for the damn picture!  i was mucho pissed!

well now that i have no class and no homework whatsoever because i had a test today, i have done quite a long little thing

i had an extremely wierd dream or series of dreams last night.  the first one was that i took my ipod and plugged it into my computer and it worked like it should have. but then it was importing songs from itunes and it said something about too much being downloaded at one time and then it went back to being broken.  
then, in the second one, i had a nipple piercing...yea...and i had to take it out for someting earlier that day and i was looking for it in a tote bag.  then i asked my sister if she had it and she said no.  so i was pissed and thinking someone stole it but then i looked in the bag again and it was in a corner of it, covered by a little pile of dirt or something.   it was really weird...

i woke up today with a lot of stuff to do for some reason...
i took a shower, then went directly to breakfast, came back and made some tea, and then began studying for my exam today. 

i have had like an awesomely fun and crazy weekend. omg i love doing stuff...

well, friday, ashley (courtney's sister) came up here to visit. courtney and dominic drove to the bridge to get her and guide her back to NMU. well on the way, somehting happened and she sroev into a snowbank! haha. i wasnt there but it sounded funny. that night, rachel and i went to the dog sled races. it was downtown on the roads and there were tons of dogs tied up everywhere just like screaming and bar king like crazy. it hurt my soul a little bit. it was unbelieveably cold that night! i have seriously never experienced cold like that in my life. and this is a winter of record high temps! :( it makes me scared for the next winter. we met up with ashley, courtney, and dominic. after a really short while, we decided that we should go back to the dorm because we were fucking cold.

we got to my room and realized that ashley had literally gotten frostbite on her ear! crazy! we watched some tv and hung out. it was loads of fun. drunk people kept coming in and it was really funny! there was a guy with a giant chicken head walking around. we heard that someone was selling jelo shots and we felt crazy so we went looking for them, court, dom, and i, but when we got to the door we chickened out. then we heard it open and dominic and i like freaking booked it down the hall! omgosh it was so hilarious. after that, we walked around for while and tlaked to dominic's friends and then went back to the room.

i was sitting at my desk and someone knocked on the door and then andrew walked in and i was like "holy shit!" he came up to see us all the way from metro-detroit! it was crazy suprising. haha. omg

then yesterday, umm..oh yea! we got up and went to the UC to eat breakfast and get some hockey tickets. after that, i went into town and got myself a haircut! i really like it except for the fact that it was $16 which is the most i have ever paid for a haircut in my life. and it was the cheapest one that wouldnt chop my hair and make my forehead bleed. it turned out somewhat like a foux-hawk and i like it:)
after the haircut, i went to the movies and cried a little bit. ok i'll admit it, i cried a lot! like hardcore! oh man!
after the movie, we went to the hockey game. it was so much fun! this one time, the puck flew out of the rink, over all of the seats and hit the wall right above the people walking around the top. then this little kid like pounced out of his seat and ran up to get it. but he was too late. We won 5-1 and then they brought out a huge trophy and i was like OOooh bonus! we won somehting big. haha it was awesome!

when we got back to the dorms, we went down into the basement and made some food. i kept trying to throw things at people and whatever i threw or wherever i threw it, it always gravitated toward ashley and smacked her in the face! it was so hilarious! oh man. i felt bad tho!

well today we are planning to go see RENT on the cmapus cinema! that should be loads of fun! especially since i am going to starbucks first! maybe!

yesterday, jeremy left to go to matt's for the weekend. so i did some tv excersizes. then later that night, courtney, rachel and dominic came over and we played euchre. it was a lot of fun even though i lost. rachel left to make a phone call so we played harry potted scene it. dominic won, of course, because he is a crazy HP phanatic! but i came in a close second. i would have won if i said sirius black instead of professor lupin. oh well.

after that game, i decided that we needed to go to wal mart because i needed some more tea and some antiperspant deodorant. so we trudged to the car through the freaking blizzard. it was crazy. we were driving and i came to a stop light and i got stuck in the snow! i couldnt move and i was just sitting there. then everyone behind me started going around me. the person right behind me was like right on my ass and he wouldnt back up so i could unstick myself. fucking bitch! i eventually got muself unstuck and we went on our merry way. i got some tea, cheez-its, cookies, and deodorant. it was actually a lot of fun..mainly because dominic is freaking crazy.
i was checking out and he asked the cashier "do you have any spritzers?" and the guy said "sthprithzers? i dont think we have any sthprithzers. what are they?" then dominic like busted out laughing and saying "oh i need a spritzer" and he fell to the ground. he was just like laying on the ground laughing in front of the cash register and the guy thought he was drunk or something. everyone was looking at him and it was freaking hilarious.

we got back to the dorm and i got stuck in the fucking parking lot again. i hate snow!

i had chemistry today, and since it is friday, we had a crazy chemical reaction. dr. wickenheiser put some soap in an erlenmyre flask and then added some consentrated hydrogen peroxide. it started foaming, looking like that insluation stuff that you squirt and it fills places and then dries. then it came out of the top of the flask and ketp falling on itself and piling up. it just jept growing and growing. it became a humungus fluffy puffball about the size of three watermelons and it was going to fall off of the table so he started jiggling the tray and saying "heyyyyy heyyyy heyyyy"

omg it was wonderous!

i am sitting in art history class right now. i was really struggling to stay awake and so, i decided that i needed to do something to keep m consciousness so i decided to update.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

ok so now i am no longer in art history class. i am in mythology. it is just beginning so i am going to wait to tell how it goes. it is promised to be quite an interesting one

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

ok well that really was very interesting!  she said that she had a suprise for us.  it was a video of the only available footage of the original paintings in the caves of lascaux, which i had already seen about two weeks ago in my art history class.  i messed around on the internet because i had already seen it.  when the movie was done, someone's computer started playing the theme song from the Pink Panther.  She heard it and started telling us her philosophy about how the minds of modern people are fragmented by so many things that we really dont know who we are.  then she started raising her voice because this one girl just couldnt seem to detatch  herself from the conversation that she was having on AIM.  

after that little thing, she pulled out a shamanic drum and told us that we were going to go on an inner journey.  she told us that our goal was to travel to the underworld, which is not necessarily a good or bad place, and find our power animal.  
i sat on the floor and she started beating her drum really softly and relaxing us with words.  then she began to beat louder in a constant monotonous rhythm.   She stopped talking and let us take our journey

this is what i saw:

I was in a meadow of grass.  it was only green grass and the blue sky.  streams and whisps of water started coming out of my chest and then wrapped around me and i became water.  I seeped into the ground and went through the dirt.  i could feel it.  then i came out through the ceiling of a cave and fell into a pool on the floor.  i could feel myself so i must have turned into a human again. but i was completely underwater because everything started moving back and forth, back and forth. then everything that was swaying morphed into a fish that was swishing its tail through the water.  i followed it for a while and then realized that my power animal must be a fish.  we came to a diffferent room and it got very dark.  then i saw a human face in front of me and looking down on me.  it moved its mouth but i couldnt hear anything.  everything was swirling and my entire body was constantly tingling like i got a really long case of the chills.  i stopped being able to feel my hands because they turned into little fins.  then for about a minute, one spot on my back hurt where a fin grew out of it.  My neck hurt and i couldnt move it if i tried.  then i lost the feeling in my feet and they fused into one caudal fin.    i could feel myself as a fish.  then the drumming turned into three very slow beats and i realized that i was in the underworld.  then they gor really rapid and loud.  i morphed back into a human and then back into water.  i seeped up through the ceiling and then through the dirt.  my eyes were movine extremely fast and i could feel them.  i couldnt control them.  it felt like my entire body was tingling like when your hand falls asleep and its prikley.  i was moving really fast and then i came to the grassy meadow and changed back into a human.  then i opened my eyes.

after the whole thing, she had us write what happened exactly so i did.  i wrote a whole page of it and i think i must have done it in about a minute.  it was really quick.  and my eyes felt really different.

so aparently my power animal is a fish...

 

that was one of the strangest and most interesting experiences that i have ever had!

adopt your own virtual pet!

i would like to introduce you all to my little pet goldfish! his name is devon patrick haysey and he lives in my myspace. he is a goldfish from the south pacific. he likes talking about fire and that place "up where they walk, up where they run, uo where they stay all day in the sun."

he likes watching Most extreme elimination challenge and eating octopus sushi. and, he is a very good friend to talk to and has a great sense of humor.

well i got up rather early today regardless of the fact that i didnt have class until noon. i got a lot of reading done, some english homework that demanded a lot of creativity from me which isnt too good in the morning, had some tea, did some laundry, talked to people, and cleaned my little area. it was actually quite fun to do so much in a little amound of time because i waited till i had like 30 minutes left to do all of it....well except for the laundry because it takes a long time, but i digress.

art class was exceedingly interesting. we are learning about greece and i dont know why, but i am captivated by its artistry and architecture. a very large thanks goes out to Tomb Raider which has, once again, supplied me with useful knowledge. i love it.

mythology was cut short today which was not anything to omplain about. So, i got some S*BUX and went back to my room. i did some homework and some writing of my new paper that i am working on. then jeremy, courtney, rachel, and matt went to applebee's so i did some yoga from a show! oh hell it felt soo good! it was an awesome way to relieve my stress that i gained from my ipod that is currently lying on his death bed. :'(

i hope he will be ok!

at any rate, i was like extremely tired for a while until they all came home and gave me some fettuccini. i just ate it and it was yummy. they stayed for a while and we played euchre. fun stuff.


well, i think this was an entry full of meaningless ramblings so i will stop................................................................................now.

anyway, today was semi productive but not really. haha! i woke up and went on a little bit of a cleaning spree because i had shit laying all around me like dirty bowls and stuff so i cleaned them and all that wonderment. then, jeremy and rachel went to the mountain to snowboard and i went to the MP to eat.

i did some exercises that i learned from the body toning with Gilad show that i watch when i got back form the room. they were tough but donw worry, i'll be ok. then they had a freaking yoga show on and so i did some of that and i felt wonderful. sarah and i had a little bit of a tea party today! it was mucho fun! OH! i read some of my shamanism book. aparently shamans believe that the rhythm of drums helps a person enter an altered state of consciousness (meditation). so naturally, with me being the freakin weird person that i am, decided to download some shaman drum music from limewire and give it a whirl. so i was sitting there and when the drumbs were playing, i literally couldnt focus a thought on anything. it was crazy! like i was actually trying to think of something else but it dodnt work. and my body kept getting all tingley - like that feeling when something really awesome happens or when you are listening to like you favorite song in the world. it was crazy.

when jeremy and rachel got back, we went to the hockey game against oklahoma! omg! we lost 8 to 3! and they were from freaking oklahoma! W-T-F! yea anyway, after the game, rachel went back to her room and jeremy, courtney, and i went to McDonalds and had some food, then went to walmart to buy me some orange mouthwash. we were looking for a funny card for dominic because he sent us all cans of orange crush with condoms taped to them.

after we got back, we played with the condoms and put them on our hands. it was fun times. then all of a sudden, we decided to go to dominic's room. so courtney and i went over there and had a good time. he is so crazy and he has a freaking huge konch(sp) shell that you can blow into to make a crazy noise! it was awesoem but he wouldnt tell me how to do it because it is apparently really loud and it was about 12:23am.

well now its exactly 3:00 so i shall try to sleep.............

yesterday, after getting back from mythology and doing absolutely nothing for a while, i went to the UC and bought a ticket to StepAfrika!  it is a "stepping" show where the people stomp and clap and make awesome beats using their bodies.  i got a ticket in row N which is literally the second to the last row in the theatre.  i saw my friend, dominic down in the second row and there was still pretty much nobody there so i waved and he tole me o COME ON DOWN! so i did.  omg he is so crazy!  the ticket lady was walking by and he asked her, "umm miss, are there going to be any refreshments during this show?  ya know, a little cart with like beverages and snacks and stuff?  that would be cool if you guys had cheesecake."  something like that.  it was so funny.  this girl in front of us kept listening and laughing and then she turned around a couple times. 

the theatre filled up and people were all looking for their seats.  by some miraculous miracle, i did not have to move from my 2nd row seat and it was spectacular. they came on and they were so freaking amazing!  then it came to the part in the show where they bring some audience members up on the stage and teach them to dance.  dominic was like right on that and he got up there.  they tried teaching everyone some moves and he could not get them.  it was so hilarious because he was like the only one and he was making all these hilarious faces.  then they took him and one other girl backstage while everyone else sat on the sides of the stage.  A mostly-naked guy escorted him out and he was wearing a sarong and some crazy necklace.  he had to copy what the guy did and it was like one of the greatest things ever.

later that night, at about 2:00 am, i decided that i really needed to eat some garlic cheez-its so i went to wal-mart with my trusty gift card and shopped around for a while.  i couldnt decide what to buy because i should really conserve my money.  i finally decided to get a box of cheez-its and a case of 24 ramen noodles:shrimp flavored.  i got back to the room at 3:15 and decided that i wasn't in the mood for garlic cheez-its anymore so i went to bed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

well today is friday, and that can only mean one thing.  something is going to explode in chemistry class.  the notes were pretty boring but then after them, he brought out the vapor hood and put four really graduated cylinders in it.  they were progressively bigger, the biggest one being so unimaginably large that he could have fit a fetus inside.   then he put little wafers of some chemical over the top of the cylinders and then toughed them with a little bar of white sulfur.  after a while of waiting in the dark, they burst into flame one by one, each making a loud sound somewhat like a small dog! it was so freaking cool.  i seriously hope you guys are skipping your classes on thursday night!  it would be so awesome!

i returned form chemistry class and opened the mail box to find a little pink piece of paper that said that i had a package!  i took it and opened it in my room.  hahah it was the awesome adventure kit from Sarah, Heidi and Eden.  holy shit you guys are awesome!  i got some awesome gloves hand-knitt by my knitting pal Erica Hoffman! i also recieved a sac of bouncey balls, a carpetesque green bracelet ring thing, some silly string, a ball gun, some fucking awesome argyle socks! and some fruffey elastic things that i havea securely attached to the post on my bed!  haha its aweosme!!

you guys rock my world!!

i am sitting in the middle of mythology class wearing my bright green and blue sandals, my bathing suit, an extreme yellow t-shirt, and a hawaiian lei! omg this is sso crazy! today is my presentation on the summer solstice festivities! this should be exciting.

ok so we presented... it was a lot of fun. the presentation part was rather dull in my opinion, but the dance was so aweosme! omg! i think we totally have to have some creepy crazy traditions for summer solstice! for rizzle!

after our presentation, another group went. they were sooo good! they made a movie and had original bongo music andit was so artistic and hilarious. oh man! good times!! after it was done, nobody wanted to present their things because they didnt want to follow that one. if i were them, i would be majorly proud. ya know, i'll bet the guy was a cinematography major.

my whole body is really warm right now because of my free S*BUX beverage! oh it was yummy.and since i had a coupon thing, the lady gave me free extra peppermint shots!! holy shit it was good!


aaaah! young-boy-girl is up next with her war presentation! she is such a character! i love it!

speaking of interesting people!!! i do believe that today was my third sighting of the tall furry man with furry fur!! it was crazy! i had the most extreme urge to take a picture with my camera phone. aah, if only i had one!

so i am sitting in Gries hall waiting to be called into my english conference and talking to ear girl on AIM. fun times. there are three of us waiting to get in and i am the next in line. the girl behind me in line has a little zip-loc tupperware thing full of tomatoe soup with noodles in it and the odd smell of it is mixing with my peppermoint white mocha and making quite a disgusting combination.

i recently got back from shopping with courtney, rachel and dominic. oh man that was a hoot! actually both a hoot and a perilous adventure! i was driving; need i say more? hahaha

oh man! i just cracked my neck and it was super loud PLUS i happened to do it at the exact moment when the whole hall became completely silent.

::sarah:: how do you be so coo, jeff? ::sarah::

oh well anyway, it seems like that kid's conference is coming to an end so i will be on my way!

          

 

             Sharp, green spear heads erupt from the mountainside as we drive past.  The air is sweet, a mixture of the cool ocean’s breath and a warm whisper from the trees.  You hold my hand as we travel down our serpentine path while particles of broken sunlight float down and settle in a warm sediment on my skin.  The road bends with every breath we take, swinging back and forth in a lullaby of motion.

            We stop the car and take to our feet.  I guide you down a small path enclosed from the world by mammoth ferns, kukui trees, and yellow hibiscus, our bare feet comforted by the soft, brown mud of the trail.  We reach the small river that flows against us underneath the shade of a guava tree.  You step into the cool, shallow water and I follow, still holding your hand, carefully searching for rocks hidden beneath the muddy water.

            The river leads us to a swirling, majestic pool curtained by the hanging roots of a banyan tree that sway in the wind like beautiful, golden strands of hair.  White, pure water spills over a break in the river’s path, partially hidden by the roots.  The column of water falls from a high, rocky cliff and crashes into the pool, bubbling and churning the water, unsettling the dirt beneath.  Behind the waterfall, lush and green ferns cling to the wall of the grotto.

            We swim to the middle of the pool when the sky, hidden by leaves, breaks open and engulfs us in a warm shower of sweet rain.  The drops fall through the canopy and splash on the surface of the water.  The rain caresses our faces, streaming down from our eyes to our lips and I know.  I know that I will love you forever.

 

not too much happened today... but then again, when does anything happen?

i went to chemistry and had a pretty boring time. then on my way back to the room, i was walking down the hill to go back to the room and i slipped on some ice and fell. hahaha! it was so cool! a girl was laughing at me and everything! oh fun times on a hill of ice.

i did some homework and all that rot. bla bla bla.

english class was fun again. we had group workshop on our papers and that was fun cuz i have a cool group. after english, i decided to go to wal-mart and buy some cheez-its and some drinks because i am running low on food and all i have is ramen noodles. well anyway, i got in my car and put it in reverse, backed out......, and got stuck. omg i hate snow so much! i couldnt get out of the freaking parking lot! a kid helped me push and stuff but it wasnt working so we had to dig the tires out. then i had to have another kid push it. i finally got out and went to the store.

well, the fucking store was out of regular cheez-its so i had to get some parmesan garlic ones. then they were out of lipton green tea so i had to get diet and it is much less good! i bought some hot green tea too.

then, upon returning, i went into the parking lot and someone was coming from the opposite direction. due to the fucking devil snow, i couldnt get around so i had to back up like 150 feet to the parkind spot in the effing back of the lot! aaaah! i hate snow!

i cooled my anger down with a hot cup of green tea that was suprisingly tasty! yum yum.

sooo... yesterday was both boring and interesting at the same time! i did literally nothing but sit on my ass for the whole day! holy shit. i had so much time on my hands and i didnt study or anything! oh well.

so i looked online for the job listings and found that there was a position at the "cruise and coffee barista" so i printed off a resume and went to check it out. i got out to my car after struggling through the freaking frozen tundra to find about 3 inches of snow and ice on my windows; not to mention the huge drifts on either side of my car. so i scraped and froze my hands and the wind was blowing and i was covered in snow. then i got in the car and it all melted and i as soaking wet. finally, i got to the place where i was supposed to go and it was a weird building with a knitting store on the bottom and the coffee place on the top. i walked up the stairs into a really dark hallway. it was soo creepy. then i came to a door at the end of the hall that had a sign on it saying "sorry, we're closed." what the hell?
i left that place in a hurry.

umm..what else did i do? oh! i took some oil pastels and drew on my TV! that was fun. then i found a little excersize show and i was like .."what the hell" so i worked out along with it for like an hour! holy shit! that was so much work! i was like BEAT. and now i am all sore... especially my butt! hahaha. it was fun tho and i seriously think that i am going to continue doing it every day so i can be all healthy and what not
