If I should die tonight

Thanksgiving break was nice. Home was a lot different for a lot of reason. I got sick beofre I came back and now I'm sick at school. Driving to Denver this evening, in the snow, should be interesting, and should be scary, but my roommate has to get back somehow. If I do die, tell Annie I love her.

Is he crazy? Birds don't talk

So I was walking back from Godfather's pizza, outside, and this crow was hopping along next to me and he's like "He man you're pretty lucky you have arms". And I was like "sweet crow. But you have and can fly. That's pretty sweet right?"

And he's like "aww man, screw that. If flying was really that exciting would I be hopping along here, talking to you". So I was like "no Mr Crow, I suppose not. Thank you very much for that insight. These arms are pretty handy. I mean without them I couldn't carry this pizza. I mean I'd probably have to kick this pizza box along the ground to get it back to my room".

I then put the box down, began to yawn with my eyes close, and when they were opened again the crow was flying away with a piece of my pizza held in his beak. Darn crows.

Water Enemas are fun?

Wrong. They hurt like hell. But I got one anyways after jumping off of the 10-meter diving board during my swim class. The ironic thing is, I did it for fun. You see, swim class is 8 lessons long, but the first lesson, if you perform well on several tests you can "validate" the class. Well, I passed all these tests (250 meter swim under 4 minutes, max 3 efficiency strokes, 5 meter dive and 100 meter swim in 1 minute, and lastly treading water for 20 minutes) with flying colors and decided to celebrate with the 3 other guys that validated (out of 35 or so in the class). We climbed up to the 10 meter and jumped. It was sick.

I Really Dislike Physics

Which is why I never pay much attention to what my teacher is saying in class. If I do engage myself, it is always in the form of relating my teacher's discussion to something completely different.

Like today in class, my teacher was having our tables (6 tables with 3-5 students) come up with a list of conservative and non-conservative forces. He would ask each table for a force and then have us explain why it was one or the other. When given the task of identifying a conservative force (gravity, electromagnetic, spring force) I automatically blurted out "Rush Limbaugh".

In my teacher's opinion, Rush was absolutely incorrect. I disagree. Rush is definitely a conservative force, not only because large following and myriad opinions, but also because he has a large mass and Force= mass*acceleration.

Compared to Last Weekend....

This weekend was lame. I have enough homework/studying to choke a horse, and having no car this weekend has made it tough to get out. What sucks even more is that I need a book from Barnes and Noble for this paper I'm writing. Oh well. All I think about, is that in 10 more days I will be sleeping in the comfort of my own bed.... probably with your girlfriend.

B.S.U.

B.S.U. stands for Baptist Student Union which is a bible study that I've gone to the past couple of weeks.

Tonight was funny. I would say that most of the people that go to this bible study hale from the South or South Eastern U.S. Tonight during the discussion, one of the Cadets used the word authenticity, then proceeded to get really excited because he had used such a big word in conversation (5 whole syllables).

Later, when the group leader was talking, he used another word of great length (another 4 or 5 syllables) and the whole group got excited. Pretty much, the morale of the story is that you gotta love them ed-u-ma-cat-ed (5 syllables) southerners.

Jagamesh. My Name Sean. I like weekend. Is nice.

So this three-day weekend ended up being pretty sweet. It started out Thursday night dropping my friend off at the Denver Airport (I drove him there and got to keep his car for the rest of the weekend). From there, I made my way through downtown Denver to Buffalo Exchange, and had dinner at an amazing vegetarian restaurant a couple doors down.

Friday morning, after eating a good country breakfast at Cracker barrel (to include grits, gravy, biscuits, and apple butter) I headed up to University of Colorado at Boulder with my old roomies Ryan and Alex. Ryan's Girlfriend goes to school there. Boulder is a beautiful city, reminds me a lot of Ashland, but like 5 times bigger. We spent some time walking around campus, seeing what a real college looks like, then got some grub at Great Harvest Bread Co.

Friday Night, I went with several friends to theMILL. This was an amazing time. Gathering with close to 1,000 other college kids to worship the creator of the universe felt great. theMILL is a ministry of New Life Church, the church whose pastor has been in the news these past few days. Though exactly what occurred has not come out, it was determined by a board of overseers that enough of the allegations were true for Ted Haggard to step away from his position as Senior Pastor of this 14,000 member congregation.


Saturday involved a shopping spree in Castle Rock and Denver. I bought a pair of the most comfortable shoes you can imagine, as well as a cashmere sweater. Its nice to have amazing places to shop less than an hour from where you live, as opposed to 4 hours away (Portland). Saturday night I saw Borat. Jagamesh?
Though good portions of the movie were side-splittingly fun, there were also parts that were incredibly offensive. I would have to recommend you see it. Here are a few pictures from this weekend's adventures:

It feels like you're walking on air

Driving in Denver can be scary

Chillin' in quad. I'll write about the white flags later

Ultimate Frisbee in Boulder was Intense

Looks like Ashland with Outbacks, Old 4-Runners, and a Lexus

Butt I'm Innocent!

This article is pretty interesting and almost comical in its timing. I was planning on visiting this church tomorrow night, probably still will
