It seems like the world goes "Thanksgiving BreaCHRRRIIIISSSSTTTMMAAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!"

So I just finished one of the longest and best Thanksgiving breaks ever. Even though it was more like a 3 day weekend than a break (I didn't get to leave campus til Thursday after the game), I somehow made it last a really long time, and I had a lot of fun, even though I didn't get to do everything I wanted to, or hang out with everyone I wanted to. I didn't do a whole lot Friday, but I did get to sit in my dream car, a SHO Taurus. I didn't get to test drive it, though, because the Ford dealership didn't have very many, so they weren't letting anyone drive them. I might get to come back and drive one near the end of the year, though. It was really cool. I got to hang out with Chad, and then Brittany, for a while, too. Then, on Saturday, I went to Brian's birthday party, which lasted all day. I shot skeet for the first time, and got to shoot two rifles my dad got while I was at college (I think. I don't remember when exactly he got them, but I hadn't shot either one before), an AR 15, and a pistol later at Brian's house. We also played soccer and dare base, and then had a praise jam. It was pretty awesome. And then, today, my brother and I went to my grandparents' church. my grandfather is a retired pastor, but he forgot the retired part of it, and is now pastoring a church in Schulenburg. We went in uniform, took some pictures, and then they took us out to steak for lunch. It was the best lunch ever. Then I went home, got all my stuff together, went to see the Seale Sisters sing, and then came back to College Station, where I am now. And God worked everything out perfectly, too, cuz I was really worried I would be late getting back, but when I got back right before 10:30, I took the pass off of my door, and when I looked at it, I saw that I had been signed out until 11...

feeeliiiiinnggss....

i have mixed feelings about everything right now (except sbisa cookies. i love sbisa cookies), so when i randomly decided i wanted to write a blog about my feelings, i suddenly realized i didn't want to, because i didn't feel like it anymore, and i don't know what to write about (hopefully the name of this blog is starting to make sense by now). how about dreams? and i don't mean like, something you really want to accomplish, i mean literal dreams. like you have when you sleep. i took a nap in studio 12 today (it's this lounge kinda thing in this building at a&m that i just discovered today. i walked in and immediately fell in love. it's filled with couches and comfy looking chairs, there a small coffee shop kinda place, a couple tables, and a piano), on one of the couches, and, while i was sleeping, a group of people sat at the table in front of the couch and started playing a card game. in my sleep, i vaguely remember dreaming about people talking about a card game. then i woke up to find the people behind talking about their card game. that kind of thing has happened many times before to me. i find it really interesting, but also frustrating, because i rarely remember those dreams in any detail. another frustrating thing is when people drag out something that seems like it has a point, only to go off on a random tangent and leave the reader hanging in mid sente

Some Things Not To Do As A fish

1. Don't leave for class 10 minutes before it starts.

2. If you do, don't forget your cover.

3. Don't leave for class 5 minutes before it starts.

4. If you do, don't speak to people going the other way on the quad.

5. Finally, don't stop running once you realize you're running late to class.


f(x)=x^2+x 1/3x^3+1/2x
(1/3+1/2) - (9+4.5) 5/6-13.5 5/6-81/6=76/6=38/3=12.667


I'm not looking forward to that physics test today. My grades in that class are already pretty bad, and I don't know what I'm doing now in that class anyway. Stupid corps, making me fall asleep every day in class. I hate coffee.

Smoke me

So, here I sit, alone in the dorms, cuz everyone left, and I'm here trying to figure out what I'm gonna do. The uniform tomorrow is Alphas. Mine just happen to be in the cleaners, which is not open on Saturday. We don't have much time for me to go looking through Sarge's for a top to buy tomorrow morning, but it seems like my only hope. My brother suggested asking around the band to borrow one from someone who won't be at the game, or might have an extra, but the chances of finding a male's A's top that at least comes close to fitting me, with an Army patch, by that is probably way less than the chances I'll have at Sarge's. I have no idea what to do, except pick up my dry cleaning myself from now on. If I hadn't failed at everything else this week, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

'Twas Friday the 13th in Aggieland...

Ok, so I wrote the first paragraph of a short story, or novel. It's really weird, though, so I'm gonna work on it some more. It's weird.

Gravitational Forces

So I totally fell asleep in Math*. It was bad, worse than normal. I wasn't just like "Huh? I fell asleep?" I had no idea where I was for a while, and then I went "Huh? I fell asleep?" I remember laying head down, and dozing off a couple times before jerking myself awake because of the dream I was having. I ate a bunch of unhealthy stuff at Sbisa today. If Mr. Castoreno takes people to do pt tonight, I think I'll go. I don't want to get Mr. Saulino mad at me, in case he was serious when he said I had better be doing pt on my own the next time he asks me. I could use some productive pt anyway. Well, I've made it halfway though physics, and I have no idea what's going on. I finished my mint, though, so I might fall asleep pretty soon. It's hard to write. My eyelids are heavy. I should bring a pillow to class. [the last sentence is barely legible, and drifts off the lines. no joke]

*Math notes
Wow, I can't even think of something to write about now. My life is so boring, even though so much happens. I'm always doing something, but I never get anything done. I'm hungry. We're halfway through the first week of this. Or maybe it's the second. I don't even know. I just know that I want our juniors

Math 151 lecture notes, 11/9/09

C o n c a v i t y [sprawled out in cursive]
(concavity)


I kinda love taking Calculus over again. I’m only awake because I’m not tired, which I’m sure is, at least in part, because of the mint I ate in a futile effort to spite Longmore for having snack mix and pop-tarts in class. I’m so hungry. I haven’t yet eaten breakfast on a bag-in day. Oh well. It saves my meal plan, I guess. Except that it’s automatically deducted anyway. Man…. I’m hungry. And now I’m tired. Only 18 minutes to go, though. I’ll just write for a while. This weekend was pretty awesome. I love being with those people. Everyone in the Gospel Sing cast is so great. They’re so genuinely loving and caring, and it was so nice to be with people like that for a while. The Seales are so helpful, too. I really hope we blessed them with the gas for going out of their way for me. 12 minutes. That church we played at yesterday morning was pretty cool, too. It was really nice of them to take us out to lunch. I love Mexican food. 8 minutes. I read my Bible a little this morning, but it wasn’t really a quiet time. The stuff that the little intro in the Bible (it’s a one year with daily reading things) said caught my attention, though. I’m gonna look back over it later. I just need to make time, not find it. 4 minutes. He’s wrapping it up. 3 minutes…

Monday's math notes

y'=ky y(t)=Ce^kt

1/2 life - 105 days y=Ce^kt t=time (days)
2013g 2013=Ce^k*0 y=grams
etc, etc, etc...


Anyway, yeah, there isn't really much to say, I'm just thinking, or daydreaming. I'm so ready for Christmas break, for dead week. No corps games. No classes, even. Hopefully, I'll be able to buckle down and really study. It would be awesome if I could keep an A in math and physics, and pull a C, or even a B, in Engineering. I have no idea if I'll actually be able to or not, though.
