Let's see how much I can type before passing out on my keyboard
Ok, so its like 3:20 in the morning right now and I decided to catch y'all up a bit. Forgive me if there are errors or it sounds like crap (refer to the last sentence for my excuse).
These past few days have been A LOT of fun. Lets start with (what I can remember of) the old stuff first... Wednesday night, Peter and I watched the OC down with Dori and Deena. They bought us pizza since they sorta invited us over and ditched us last week... The pizza made up for it though, pepperoni and buffalo wings style (it was pretty good!). The drama of the OC is just great... Too bad the first season ends this week. Friends also ends this week, but for good... :(.
Thursday evening was the CRU barbecue/picnic. It was great to be outside on a great day, with lots of friends playing sports or sitting and talking or doing whatever. We went and got our own food to BBQ at Safeway... mmm... steak... Except I didn't have a knife to cut it with, so that made it interesting. Right after we got back from that, it was off to THE BEACH for COUNTRY SWING DANCING! Man, I'm really going to miss that this summer. I can only hope that I remember all the moves and such when we come back in the fall. It was SOOOOO crowded though, since everyone and their mother was there (or so it seemed). I don't think there was a single time when I was dancing that I or my partner didn't get hit while we were dancing, but it was still really fun because all my friends were there. We left there at around 1:20 and headed down the street to Daylight Donuts with Aaron, Alex, and Kathy. Is it odd that a restaurant's hours are 9PM-1AM? I'll let you be the judge.
Friday was the day of review sessions for 3 of my 4 classes. Psych was definitely my favorite class of the day because not only was it the only class I learned new stuff in, but I FINALLY met Megan (for those of you that don't know: we met online through HotorNot and had been talking on MSN for like a week). After class, Erik, Peter, Bryan, and I went and played ultimate... no, it wasn't 2 on 2, we joined a game in progress. I had a couple hard collisions with opposing team members, resulting in a small cut on my lip and I think a minor headache (I've never had one before, so I'm not too sure what they feel like). I was also bleeding from my shin but thats because a scab from ultimate a couple weeks ago opened up. We went down to the Down-Under for the Stephenson South luau (aka free food, drinks, and prize drawings). Peter and I played a game of pool on a slanted table, which wasn't so much fun, and I watched Stephon (my RA) get pied in the face by 5 guys from our floor with whipped cream. Later that evening, I'm sure most of you already know what happened (which may or may not be because of a certain 6'2" red headed fellow that I am living with next year): Megan and I went on a "date" (I'm neither confirming nor denying that, that's just the word that may or may not have been used to describe my evening by that same red head).
We decided to go see a movie, since she was going to go with her friends but they left without her when she was taking another friend to the airport. We made a quick stop at Arbys so I could get a strawberry shake (trés bon, by the way) before heading off to the semi-new theaters to watch "Envy" with Jack Black and Ben Stiller. The movie was kinda cheesy/unrealistic, but still kinda funny. After that, we decided to go to and drive around Moscow, eventually ending up at Jack In The Box. We sat there for a good half hour talking (and I ate a couple Breakfast Jacks), then headed off to show her the house I'll hopefully be living in the next few years. We wound up going back to her dorm and sitting out in the hallway talking until about 3am. So there you have it: all the juicy details (if thats what you choose to call them).
Today, I got absolutely nothing accomplished in the way of studying, but I really don't care. Megan came over at about 3:30 and I showed her my room(s) and introduced her to Peter. After hanging out for about an hour, she left and Peter and I headed off to Moscow to eat at Applebee's! I tried Peter's favorite, the fajitas, which were incredibly filling and delicious. We browsed through Hastings (I would compare them to another store here, but I can't think of any because of the current hour, so: they have movies, CDs, books, movie rentals, video games, and such). Then we came back and went to the the final Nuthouse of the year. It was funny as always... one of the best ways to have a good laugh with your friends on Friday/Saturday nights if you ask me. Then it was Flix with Ben, Laura, and Jessica, where we played some pool. That was about it for my evening... other than hanging out here and talking to people online/playing poker & minesweeper.
So yea... it's now 4:25 and I'm dead tired so I'm off to bed. Tomorrow, I'm going to move my big electronic stuff into storage (which we were planning on doing today, oops) and I need to start studying for my GENED 111 final on Tuesday. Hope everythings going well for all of you and good luck to those of you here that are preparing for finals.
Oh yea, I called my Uncle John today and he said that its cool that Peter and I go up there (Coeur D'Alene) on Friday after finals and hang out for a couple days! WOO HOO!
