So I decided that I'm going to not write such a serious blog tonight. I'm bored and was reading "Texts From Last Night" and decided I'd write some of my thoughts and reactions to some of these absurd things that people send to others. We'll see how it goes.
(845): Grab the Coor's Light. It's time to get NASCAR drunk. - This just makes me laugh because it makes me think of my parents. Not that they are super huge drunkards by any means, but the whole NASCAR thing. When I was in high school my dad really started liking NASCAR and then he got my mom hooked on it. Now they are crazy about it. Who knew they'd like something like that. I still don't get it...just something about cars going in a circle just doesn't do it for me.
(+44): I just had an epiphany. There is NOTHING TO STOP ME from making cake mix and eating it all instead of makign cake. It feels like my entire life has peaked at this moment. - Definitely understand where this person is coming from. There have been times where I honestly just make cookie dough to eat the dough and never plan on getting to the actual cookie baking stage. I mean really though everyone knows the dough/mix is always the best part. Otherwise we wouldn't lick the bowl when we are done.
(912): Just woke up in the beanbag bin at walmart. - So I've decided that this may be one of the coolest things ever. I already told this one to Areef and he agrees as well. The bin always does look super comfortable. And for some weird reason, I do think it would be cool to just fall asleep in there sometime and then pop out and scare people later. Just saying.
(732): The best part about being a teacher is that there are always 20 little kids around to blame my farts on. - So I'm disappointed in this teacher. I believe they should claim their own farts. Besides the kids would have some respect for a teacher like that...and who knows they may actually like a teacher that relaxes and has fun like that.
(704): I can make a handprint turkey for extra credit in history. I feel like the word college should be in quotations on the school letterhead. - Uh yeah. Well first I agree with this. Second this is actually a bit like my Geography class. We get extra credit for just coming to class and doing these minute papers that he assigns. There's an option to get like 120 extra points. You also get extra credit if you do a service project and write about how it benefits the environment. And in his world the environment is pretty much everything. Another 120 points there. Those two combined is like a whole letter grade...wtf!?
(662): Definitely just saw the guy I went on a date with on Friday night dressed in medieval knight gear on the quad preparing for battle. Oh my God. - HAHAHAHAHAHA. Ok this just reminds me of the live action role playing thing from Role Models. The thought of seeing someone like this just cracks me up. We do have a group that I've seen like this at IUPUI though. They had maces and everything. Weird.

Rearrangments
Well, hm...it's been a week since my last update. It's now September and that means fall is right around the corner. Fall is by far my favorite season. Love the weather that's around during this time of the year and when the trees start changing it's prolly the best thing ever.
Phi Psi has started back up! I definitely missed seeing a lot of the brothers over the summer so it's great to have everyone back together again. We had a great recruitment workshop put on by Spencer. It was a really good one that made the group refocus on our values and how our members values align with those. Then it was off to the actual meeting which wasn't too bad either. I told the brothers about the trip to NIU I'll be making this upcoming weekend. Have had a couple guys tell me that they want to come so that's good news. It should be a pretty exciting weekend though. Will be heading to NIU for their ribbon cutting ceremony for their new house. After that I'll be going to my first ever college football game.
Classes are going pretty well so far. Spanish class is awesome. I'm surprised how much I'm actually remembering from almost three years ago, so that's really nice. I started doing some of our online homework this weekend and it's going pretty well. My two chemistry classes aren't too bad either. Forensic chemistry lecture is kind of boring right now just because of the fact that it's mostly review right now. Lab however seems like it should be pretty cool. I like how we don't have much of a standard for what we have to write in our lab books, which is awesome. In lab the other day we did a "crime scene investigation" as well as "collecting evidence" and comparing similar items. Instrumental lab on the otherhand seems like it's going to be just a big pain in the ass. The electronic lab that we had to do took forever. (Two three hour lab periods) The lecture isn't much better. Not exactly sure what I'm learning in there. This upcoming week though, I'll be starting my Leadership class, which I think is going to be a lot of fun. Tina is my teacher so that shouldn't be bad at all.
Senate started on Friday. I think it went OK for the first meeting. We had about seven senators that didn't show up which is still kind of sad. But an exciting thing was that we had students come who weren't senators at all! Tina said she thinks that is one of the first times she's really seen that happen. Means we did a good job this year at trying to advertise to the general student body through our resource fairs and the involvement expo.
This weekend has been pretty relaxing so far. Went to an Indian's game last night. Props to SAPB! They've been doing some awesome programs for WOW and they are going really well. All 300 tickets sold out for the Indian's game and Jillian's got a lot of students to come out as well. And as for the title of this blog...I really just made it this because I rearranged my room today. It was all I could think of for a catch title. :) I think tonight I'm going to go on a bike ride downtown and take some pictures of Indy at night. So perhaps I'll have some of those to put up on my other blog sometime soon.
Well, I think that's all for now!
