a closing window....an opening door

In tribute to everyone else's blogs at this moment in time i will start this entry off sounding like everyone else's blog. Here we go...

...School is almost over...i have so much homework to do in only 2 1/2 weeks...i'm so stressed...there is so much to do...blah blah blah...

SO WHAT! Yeah, i'm stressed too, but fricken summer is almost here! Shoot, Reality Trip is almost here. (and yes, we have picked a cast and for more info check out the web site.... )
Why are so many acting like its the end of the world as they know it...its the end of the world as i know it and i feel fine....oh my...well...

Things are going alright in my life right now...i was wrong in my last blog and i want to clear that up...yes, i know, i was wrong, it harldy ever happens...as of today only 6 weeks till Reality Trip...last week would have made it 7 weeks...

In other news...I have finished my class at UIS as of this past monday night and got an A- in there. I was excited...for my final project I did a lil thing I like to call the Weekend Update w/ Jimmy Fallen. I had Knox come down there w/ me to by my musical guest. It went well...

Now, as I sit here on skip day, i realize that I have let a dear friend down. Thats right SuperDave. I'm sorry man. We were supposed to go take a canoe down salt creek today cause on Friday of reading days, we are gonna go tubing down salt creek and we wanted to see if it is alright to go tubing down before we just started to go. So, I'm sorry my friend, shall we go and party it up today and pretend we are in a canoe...

Well thats all i've got, i'm sure there could be more that i could add or blog about later...we shall see...untill next time, thats the news, goodnight and have a pleasent tomorrow...

almost there....

Today is wednesday and the week is half over...almost there to the weekend.

Just wanted to clear that up for anyone that didn't realize it.

Today will be a great day, its really nice outside and i get to be in an office for all of it....great....

Nothing really to say, other than that 1 more round of interviews this saturday and we will anounce the cast of Reality Trip. Its going to be very exciting!!!!
countdown to Reality Trip: 6 weeks!!!!!

Crap, lot to do in that little amount of time...

Another week in the life of...well, me....

Ah yes, I return for another edition of "saying whats on my mind"
well, for starters, I'm tired....
-Sleep has become a very precious accomodation for me and I have had very little of it in the past week.
-interviews for Reality Trip were this past weekend and well the 6 cast members are....

Like I'd tell ya?....we haven't decided yet, the interviews went well though and we still have another round of interviews to do and hopefull we'll anounce the cast very soon!

-Megan is a person that is beautiful and is sweet and is caring, she's a great gal...wouldn't trade those 3 1/2 years for anything....well maybe for a new CD player for my car...or perhaps for a Mr.Goodbar or a Fastbreak candy bar...those are good...or maybe a new swingline stapler.......you should all know that i'm joking...i'd never trade the past 3 1/2 years for anything in the world...she made me laugh, cry, and everything in between...it was some good times that will never be forgotten...

-School is goin great, actually paid attention in class the other day when Dr. Mangano subbed for Dr. Zorn and he taught on Daniel 1-6...it was great! Yeah for learning...
-I'm currently very hungry and i think its cause i haven't had anything to eat since lunch...First Wok treated me well, but i'm so fricken hungry, if i fart i think i'll deflate...then there would be just a little pile of Squeaky laying inside these nice clothes that he once wore...
-I think that if i don't go biking later tonight, i'll miss out on a beautiful night of fun and biking around in lincoln...gonna have lights on us this time so the cop can't tell us to put on lights...oh what fun
-life is going great other than stress from the lack of homework getting done...i can't believe i'm putting so much off till the last minute...oh what fun...
-Oh this summer is going to be a blast...so many cool people living in lincoln this summer....can't wait...can't wait for people to come visit the appartment....maybe someone from hannibal would come out...(HA!...who am i kidding...well, wishful thinking i guess...)

Oh this has been a fun blog, i'm in a really good mood...which is odd since i'm so hungry...I usually get very cranky when i'm hungry...so if i'm ever pissy...just feed me...so, until next time...i leave you with this thought....

...if i was never late, everyone else wouldn't be on time...

Broken Happy Bridge

I did it.
I busted a hole through the happy bridge!
There was a small group of us there tonight and i noticed this board that already seemed rather torn up, as if the rest of the boards are in perfect condition. I started to pull up on the middle of the board...the first part of it came up easy, then it was just like a roughted out board that was all mulchy....I then proceeded to stomp on the sliver that was out of the board, about a good 4 inches. I then gave up, but was still determined to bust through! I mean, I would have been able to say, hey, look, next time you come here and see that, you'll remember me. I went back at it. I finally stomped heavily with all of my 130lbs. of me and we heard a big splash in the waters below. I noticed that my foot was now nearly completely through the board. I did it!

I could put my hand through the happy bridge! The board was torn up enough that you could see the reflection of the stars on the water below! I made my mark!

Now whenever you may make your way out to the happy bridge, go about 15 feet away from the end of it (the end closest to the mini-bridge) and there will be a board that has a hole through it that you could probly lay a baseball bat down and it would fall through. I am proud.
I feel like I have made my mark on Lincoln!
God Bless it!
Sucks though cause i think i put a hole in my shoe while doing this. It was a sacrifice I am willing to deal with knowing that I have BROKEN THE HAPPY BRIDGE!

Tomorrow is a new day.

After many events taking place in the past 24 hours, I have come to the conclusion that tomorrow is a new day and could always be better than today. I have had the worst sinus cold in history! Why?!?!?! I scream this as snot is clogging my nose and my throat is dry.

As for life in general, work is going well, many things are coming together as Reality Trip is becoming more and more of a reality to me and I have now realized that in 2 months from this day, I'll be leaving for Reality Trip. As much stress as my life may have, and even though i'm sick, I can sit back and thank God for the things that are happening with this project. I am still praising Him for the events that took place in Florida 2 weeks ago! What a trip...Only 1 year tomorrow till I lead another group into the paradise of Florida to work for Habitat For Humanity!

In other news...

Pain has filled me once again this evening. She called me. For no reason, but to just talk. It hurt some, not gonna lie. There are those times that it still doesn't seem real that she broke up w/ me. I just don't get it. Who knows, who cares.

Want to end on this thought-

-If there was no stress in my life, what would there be to stress out about?....Without stress, it would be a plain and boring life.

Does a bear crap in the woods?....

So this blog has nothing to do w/ the title that I have given it. It simply sounded like a good phrase to say.

So since I've been back from Florida, my room remains a mess, my trash is almost overflowing and hasn't been changed in 2 1/2 weeks, I have dirty laundry that is taking over a corner of my room, my bed remains sheet-less since spring break, and I have so much homework that I am behind on. Why is this you may ask?...well, for starters, pure lazyness, and i just like it being like this. I don't like the trash being filled up or my laundry overflowing, but my room a mess and my bed sheetless....its nice. My bed is so cool feeling since it is starting to get warmer outside at night and a cool matress to press my little body on feels great.

Tonight i came back from UIS and watched the remaining 2 minutes of the worst game in history of college basketball. Yes, Illinois lost, but life will continue....I then went to steak n' shake w/ some friends, then came back to the dorms to find many people not in their rooms. Had the rapture occured, crap i was left behind and was waiting for Kirk Cameron to walk onto F2 and give the Gospel....

Anyways, Nolan and I took the only 2 bikes from Titus that had air in their tires and went on a ride to find our friends...note...it is now 2 a.m.
Nolan and I go all around campus on these bikes, what a work-out...soon we find the guys we were looking for and we just started to talk by the sidewalk that goes behind the houses on campus view drive. A minute or two later, a car goes by slowly with a huge spot light out....it was a pig...dirty hairy...the 5.0......the fuzz....the cops!.....we jetted out of there as if we were Michael Jackson at a daycare....it was now about 3a.m. an it is time for bed. Tonight was a joyous night and it will be missed dearly, just can't wait till tomorrow night!....till next time, have a good one....
