what college is all about...

okay, so i really just was going to comment on the pictures that colette posted on her blog site, and now i'm stuck setting up my own blog account. geez. making it hard for me. anyway, maybe this will be a good way to update myself on what the heck is going on in the college scene. it could also inform everyone else what is going on in my not-so-interesting life. who knows, perhaps people will be interested.

i do have to say that i am really enjoying this lifestyle. sleep is hard to come by between the late night excursions to parties and movies...oh yea, homework every once in awhile. i really need to start doing that.

so anyway, this weekend was crazy madness. the first weekend that would actually qualify as a college experience. i saw fight club on thursday night. yea. it was....strange. people have been talking about it nonstop since we arrived three weeks ago and even though they spoiled the story for me, i decided that in order to be qualified as a true college student, i had to go see it. i can't really decide if i want to call it a good movie. if they edited out the sex, violence, and cussing to air on tbs, i don't think the movie would be but 6 minutes and 42 seconds long. the best part was probrably when colette gagged. yes, she gagged when the liposuction fat bag bursted on the barbed wire fence. ack. okay, so maybe i just did at the thought. oh, this also brings up cell phone ediquite. 30 minutes before the movie starts when everyone is yacking at full volume, it is imparative that you put your cell phone on vibrate. yea, i was apparantly rude. i atleast did better than colette. she was jabbering to her boyfriend on speaker phone 8 minutes into the movie. colette, next time, put your voice on vibrate for us.

friday classes were unbearable. why is it that we tourture ourselves by glancing at the clock ever 20 seconds or so to see if class is almost over. i resorted to watching the green light on my cell phone flash every once in a while on my desk. i leave it on silent, but when someone calls, it flashes faster. please, someone just call even though i can't answer. really really bored. anyway, after three classes of watching the green light on the phone (which no one called), i went and stood in line for the pep rally to "fire up the dawgs" for the first game saturday. yea, got there an our and a half early for my free large t-shirt. so worth it, let me tell you. ping-pong at tate after that....yea, totally kick butt in that department. guys are hilarious when they lose to girls. so many excuses. then came the frat party. oh, the joys of listening to country music at the KA house while beer splashes onto your feet on the dance floor. no doubt i had fun though. colette and i busted it out...half drunk sweaty frat guys don't have too well of coordination on the floor though. twirling and dipping is fabulous. after an entertaining hour at the frat house, we decided we were tired of the drunk mob of people and left. on the way back we ran into some friends...heading out to 346...a club on broad street. yay, more drunk people. why not. guys get so offended when you refuse to freak dance with them. oh well, not my problem. next thing we knew, it was 2 am...way past my typical bedtime and i was fading fast.

early wake up the next morning considering i didn't crash into my pillow until 3 am. we just had to get out there and tailgate. luke was so pumped for the game...it was cute. anyway, we mooched food from our fellow dawg family members. tossed the football around. dude, i can't throw a football. then we headed to the hot, sweaty, drunk, not incredably amazing win football game. don't get me wrong, it was awesome. GOOOOOOO DAWGS! SIC 'EM! WOOF WOOF WOOF! yea man. definately had to shower. i have a lovely new tan line now. chilled in the room until about 10, when we went to visit some friends at their dorm until we wandered over to the tate center with luke for the non-existant midnight showing of Shrek2. you know it. luke then insisted that we watch "the greatest movie in the world", identity. yea, definately not a fan of scary movies and let him know beforehand. anyway, he convinced us to sit down at watch it at his place. his roommate kept trying to give it away. hes a strange character. even so, it was actually very good. never saw that one coming. hung out with almost every guy on their hall squeezed into their dorm room after the movie ended at 1:47....until about 3 am when i decided getting up in the morning for church would be rough if i didn't go to bed soon. had a bit of a worry over colette and a guy driving her home, which kinda defeated the purpose of having someone drive her home because thats what we wanted to avoid...but she ended up being safe. always good.

luke got to go to a lake sunday and monday. i'm so jealous. considering the late night, got up reasonably well for church at 9 am. the sermon was actually on jealousy...darn it. definately hit the sack after i got home. sleep is wonderful. called my sister and talked to her for an hour after that...i miss her. not too eventful of a day. homework homework homework. saw shrek that night as well. more sleep that night....12 hours and 20 minutes of blissful, undisturbed sleep. thank you, labor day.

there ya have it. college is all about the midnight movies, late night par-taying, sleep....maye a little homework on the side. my parents keep asking themselves if they sent me to school or camp...i definately like to lean toward the latter. you're prolly wondering why in the world you wasted your time reading this...you have no idea how much fun it really was. college rocks.
