the beginning of the end
To all my people:
Just writing to everyone to say that I can't believe that the semester is almost over. With this thought I can say that I both dread this time and also look forward to it. It means that there are 2 technical reports due, my last calculus test was tonight, and 2 final exams. Unfortunately it also means that I can take a month off for relaxation. Just chillin' down at HQ. Today has been a relatively good day. I finally got my I-tunes program running on my computer and I now get more music than I care to listen to. I also have off until 12 tomorrow which is nice. There are very little things at mines that beat sleep. Anyway, I hope that everyone is doing well and I wish you all the best in the last few weeks. I wish I could talk to you guys more than over blog but. I'll try to use aim more and talk to you all. As for break, send me ideas and maybe we could try to get together.
Peace and love from mines HQ

Thanksgiving
Well I can say that my thanksgiving went very well. As much R&R that I could expect to get. I went up to Flouresant on Thursday for thanksgiving. Nice cabin up there but there isn't much to do. It was fun seeing family though and the food was really good. Then I went home and went to relax. I also went snowboarding on Saturday which was really fun. I got to see some of my old friends that I haven't seen in a long time. By the way we should do something like that again some time. Sunday was pretty uneventful that 6th is unplowed and is therefore very fun to drive on. Now I am back and trying to make a dent in the work that I have to have done in a few weeks. Anyway peace
Jens
Finally over
Hey everyone,
Yeah I know, it's me again but I have some good news. My week have been stressful, but now the rest of the semester is easy. However there are some contingencies, first chemistry, I bombed the last test but it doesn't count. Epics and all of my engineering projects are really easy and I always do well. So now I have been given some true R&R. Ian is still out of his mind, but I won't be able to go to the streets this weekend to find out the deal. I hope that everyone is doing well and I hope everyone has fun over thanksgiving. I am done at 12 AM tomorrow. All because of stupid calc. Anyway if anything is going down,(besides Saturday) just inform me before tomorrow night and I will get everything settled.
Peace out
Jens

R&R don't mix with stress
Yo, sup?
I am in an excellent way now, but the weekend in which I wanted to relax didn't work out. As I mentioned earlier my friend of many years has recently lost his mind. Two weeks age I lost all contact with him unexpectedly. This weekend I have recieved word that he is in serious danger. He has recently joined the bloods on the streets. He has in the past two weeks been shot at, he has gotten drunk almost to the point of achohol poisoning, and he has worked his way into academic probation at TJ in order to avoid expulsion. This information was given to me by my parents when he arrived at my crib wednesday because his parents took away his key so that he has to go home when they are home. This frightens me because I don't want him to die or get screwed by the cops. In addition, there are test and other work that has to get done. I also am trying to deal with the fact that I chose to leave the player lifestyle. It was very fun and I have no idea what to do if I have to leave it permantly. Anyway, all said and done I guess I will just have to work through it all and hope for the best.
Peace and Love

2 more days
Hey everyone,
I'm writing from Denver tonight ( imagine that) and I would just like to let everyone know that we are schedules to get a foot of snow. I am very excited. Unfortunantly for me, if we get a lot of snow in Golden it will be harder for me to get back up for the roughly 5 more classes before thanksgiving. It is a good thing that I came down though so that I could recieve my motorcycle insurance bill.( always a good thing) So here I sit, again just cathching up on sleep and working on final presentations. Next week should prove to be fun though because I get to go to a family gathering in the mountians. I love my family so it should be a good time. I do have bad news about one of my friends down here, but I don't want to write about it in this post. I will say that I worry for him and I hope that he can get on top of his ____ soon. As for everyone else I will make this brief. I hope that you all have a wonderful thanksgiving and if anyone needs to reach me for anything, use the link on my profile page and give me an e-mail. If you have my cell you can reach me there but you might have to leave a voice message and I'll get back to you.
Peace and love

Cell Phones
Hello to everyone. I have as of last night came to the conclusion that cell phones are evil. Keeping in mind that I have a cell phone, I will say that they are convenient to get in touch with people. However I have come to the conclusion that they are evil because of last night. Last night one of my roommate friends came over because she wanted help studying for the chemistry exam. This would have been fine, except that her phone went off 2 minutes into the studying. After that it went off consistently for no less than an hour and a half. After this time, Chris(roommate and I) were done and she hadn't finished the first problem. Now I understand the occasional call, but to be committed to your phone enough that when you want help, you still feel the requirement to answer it every time it rings? I assure you that I will call back, but I won't necessarily take the call right when it rings if I am unable to (racing, class, test, etc.) I just thought I should point out that a society shouldn't be that attached to our technology that it takes precedence over people.

Boredom is my enemy
Hey, what's up everyone? Kinda a general question to everyone who reads this but now to my point. I am writing simply because there is absolutely nothing else to do. I hope that this is not the case universally. After doing homework and listening to music I find myself at a loss of activities to do. Seeing as I have retired from flirting and what not and I have no girlfriend currently, I find myself staring at a blank monitor. It is quite funny that there is a college (mines) that does absolutely nothing outside of video games during the week. However, I will attempt to end the boredom by going for a drive tomorrow ( for those who know what I have done relax) racing is reserved for the weekends when I go back to Denver. I would write more tonight but I should probably go to bed so that I can catch up on the sleep that I have been neglecting.
Peace

Hello to everyone: startling news
Hello again, I know that I usually write on lighter topics, but I am forced today to address an issue that has been on my mind now for as long as I can remember. I have recently had the unwanted experience of an epiphany ( for lack of better words I use Ravens definition). I have, by reading through my old post and notebooks, realized that I have unfortunately, changed a lot. I used to believe that love was something that was unique and something to be cherished. It was something that I sought. Apparently, however, as I have began to reject love and lean more to the player mentality, I have become alarmed. Today I have realized that it was failure that drove me to this mentality, and I have concluded that being a player has no real benefit aside from the obvious advantages. It is not a really fulfilling lifestyle, fun but not fulfilling. I have therefore concluded that I will retire for a while at least and ponder which path I should take. Again peace to my homies and I hope you all support this decision.
Peace
Jens
Back again
Hey everyone, I am back at mines for another exciting week of boredom and work. Well, not as much work as boredom. It'll be better as soon as I find something to do with my time. The weekend was nice, I worked on my car and washed it. I also played Halo 2. It is the kick ass game that has infected the school of mines. The majority of people on the floor play it constantly. I hope that it dies before the chem test Thursday or a lot of people will be regretting it. While I was taking it easy at home people were getting busted for achohol and getting away with slip and slide in the hallway. Figures, I decided to go home again to go away from boredom, and it finally gets interesting. I am finally getting to realize that college life is expensive. But that doesn't really matter because living the G code is a good way to keep all of life's problems in order. That being said I will say that I am failing at two of the precepts of the G code, gut this is explained in the fact that I go to mines and I will be well educated after my completion. I have more to write, but I'll save that for another day. For now I'm going to sit and get ready for another week.
Peace
Jens
Peace out
Hey, sup? I was just writing to wish everyone a good weekend, and let everyone know that I will be gone ( back in Denver) for the weekend- just like every other weekend. I doubt that it is important but if anyone needs to reach me either call me or e-mail me. I will have very limited internet in the weekend. Peace, and remember, do how you do.

The relief of Thursday
Well, I know the title sounds weird but I am glad that today is finally over. I finally don't have to do anymore epics work for a while. I ended up with a 16 page report that was done over the course of 1 week. I did however have to skip out of gym today to complete the project.(because I went to boulder for 4 hours and couldn't finish the project up there. However, it was very fun to go up there. Last night was extremely cold though and Boulder is a huge place to walk around. Sorry to everyone that I know up there, I would have said hi but I don't know where you all are or how to contact you. Well, I might write another post later, but for now I am going to sit back and just relax and enjoy the weekend.
Peace
Jens
Today
Hey,
Just writing for the hell of it. I can't possibly do any more epics work before calculus, so I decided to be productive and make a post. I can't wait for tomorrow to be over. That means that I will have no epics to do until the final. Unfortunately, I have to finish my project today and go to Boulder. It should be fun, but it also makes my night extremely long. I plan to get to boulder in about 3 minutes (fun driving tonight unless it snows). Well I would write a lot but I have to go to calculus and then I go directly to work. I only have to say that I finally got my printer cartridge which is nice because I no longer have to go to the library.
Peace,
Jens
Responses to comments
Hello everyone,
I have decided that I need to make a post that answers the comments to my previous posts. I don't really have anything new to write. It is just another boring week, except for the fact that I have an epics project that I am neglecting at the moment. The only new news that I have to post is that I actually did good on a calculus quiz today. Now I will respond to the comments. In response to Katy, it's cool. I understand because I go home almost every weekend and I usually have to do other things that keep me busy. I hope that snowboarding was fun, I haven't been able to get to the slopes yet, but I will one of these days. A "player's holiday" is basically a day when anything goes and there is not really any one agenda. It is basically a day to have fun and do what you want to do. I'll try to talk to you on e-mail when I get a chance and I'm not working on EPICS.
Raven, sure I'll try to visit. I won't be down until about 7pm. I am going down for a movie on skiing and snowboarding. Just write me or call and I'll see if I can say hi to everyone down there. Anyway, Peace to all my people everywhere and have a good week. Now I have to return to my EPICS project that I don't want to do.
The start of another week
Hello everyone,
Well it is the start of another week. I haven't been able to write because I took a "player's " holiday in Denver. It was a hell of thing. Having fun and doing things that have a purpose(not calculus). Other than a little racing and a little bit of my motorcycle, nothing out of the ordinary. Everyone needs to take a holiday now and again. Relax and forget all of life's little problems. Anyway, I hope everyone had a good weekend, and I hope that you (Raven) got some of the sleep that you were talking about. This week is going to suck, but I get to go to Boulder Wednesday night, which will hopefully break up the week. Well, I wish the best for everyone and now I must go and start on homework for tomorrow.
Peace,

long week
Hey everyone, how are you doing. I am writing tonight because this week is going by soooo slow. I don't know how everyone else is doing, but it is a long week when you have very little work to do and nothing else to do in a small campus. I wish that I could go back to Denver and find something to do, but in the middle of the week it is kinda hard to go to Denver. It is also a waste of gas which is still very expensive. I guess I will just have to stay on campus and make the best possible use of my time. Somehow it always seems like there is nothing to do when you have nothing to do and something always comes up when you actually have reports to do. I have no doubt that tomorrow will be one of those days. Well I am going to call it a night for now, I will try to put out a short post tomorrow.
Peace out
Jens
Hey it's me again
Hey everyone, I decided to place another post tonight because I have more time. I finally have a night when I don't have to do any major homework. It has been a long day today. I have been running everywhere trying to accomplish everything that I need to get done. I really want the weekend to come soon. I have a lot that I can do on the weekend, and not much to do this week. I have to agree with my friends when they say that college makes you poor. This week has been somewhat interesting for me in that a lot has happened. I don't know how everyone else feels, but I can't wait for the election to be over. When it is over I will finally be able to go outside of my dorm without seeing political propaganda. I apologize if my writing appears to be ramblings, but I have had a lot of caffeine. I will write more later, and it will be more coherent. I will also try to put some pictures on later. On a final note I would like to let everyone know that I have recently went onto aim and you can get my aim address on my profile.
Peace everyone
I'm out
School & Life
Hello again,
I had hoped to do this last night but unfortunately I was forced to finish a Chemistry lab write up. Not very fun, especially when you find out that you need ink in your printer and you can only get it from dell. For those reading this who know who I am, I thought you should know that I did get a new motorcycle at the beginning of this school year. It is a Virago 500. It is nice because it doesn't stall in the rain. I am having fun at mines for the most part, except for the fact that I will have to retake calculus ( Mines has calculus that is incredibly hard, even for those that have already had it.) I did not have calculus before. Anyway, I find it nice that I am writing this at 9:00 in the morning, it is nice to sleep in. Again I find that I must leave for now. To my people: have fun and I'll talk to you later. Remember always do what you have to do.
I will post again tonight.
Peace
Hello Everyone
Hey, this is my first post and I just wanted to send out a shout out to all my people in Denver. If you get to this site and you know me, hit me back. I would also like to send a personal thanks to my friend "the village idiot" for showing me where to go. I will try to keep this updated as much as I can.
Peace
