Weird

So I'm going to make this brief. Today I was sitting in class and I got the distinct impression that someone I know was standing behind me. I don't know if this happens to other people, but it was weird because it was as though I was talking to her in my mind. I knew where I was but the feeling was so strong that I wasn't much involved in the lecture. I had the urge to call her and talk, but, when I got back to normal I realized how bad of a conversation it would be and how crazy I would appear. So if anyone was talking to me today, please let me know so I'll feel less crazy. I've heard of similar types of abilities before, but anyway I'm not sure.
Peace and Love

What women want

Yes, I have returned once again. first things first. Things are finally settling down, my mind is back to the same old trainwreck as usual, but that's a good thing right. I finally got back to doing my rounds of talking to people. Soon I will return to silence (j/k). I have decided that silence while in small doses is good, is overall very bad. So I find myself back in the ring. I finally got back to tennis which is helping me find balance. I hope to go back to swimming soon, if I can find time. So now I pose two questionsthat I don't understand. Thank God they don't have to do with engineering. First, is it bad for a white guy to wear a du rag. Yeah, it sounds odd, but let me explain. Until I can actually get to get a shave, I found that this works best. needless to say my roomates find it odd. I used to have one before, and I don't wear it regularly, but it is really comfortable when my hair gets really long.

Second question : I was relaxing in the hammock once again and I realized that I really don't know what women look for in a man. This isn't to say that I don't know anything, but I am trying to get back into the field, and it just dawned on me that I don't know much. If I know one thing, however, it is that women don't much enjoy street racing. Anyway any ideas on where to go. The damn hammock is actually helping merelax and think clearly which is something that isn't really something that I had time for before.

As always
Peace and Love

question

So e-days was fun, blew shit up, drank , you know all the fun things in life. I actually got drunk for my first time ( not much of an accomplishment, but now I know my limit.) Anyway that's not important. My question is in regards to some events that happened. I already made my decision, but my parents told me otherwise and I can definitly see both sides of the issue. It all started on Saturday when we held a BBQ at the house. I had a drink called "jungle juice"(very strong) and some Bailey's. We then went to a comedian that the school was hosting. There I ran into a friend from DU. She was drunk and I was tipsy and we talked about what was new. She proceeded to tell me how she hates her boyfriend and how she plans on breaking up. She then gave my her number and told me to call her after the comedian so that she could come over. I didn't call her because I reasoned that she was drunk, and if she came over it probably would have screwed up a lot of shit for both of us. I did call her to apologize and to make sure she was alright on Sunday. I think that was the right decision. My parents however felt differently. I know that I am not real assertive or preceptive when it comes to women. I precieved it as her blowing off steam and just casual chat. I also don't like to do anything that might hurt people. I have not generally been known to voice my opinions in situations such as this because I don't want to be the dumbass who thought that there was something there that wasn't. Any thoughts on what I should have done, or on how to be better at letting people know where I stand rather than giving the wrong impression. I know this sounds weak, but I don't know what I should have done.

Peace and Love

other thoughts: Baileys, kalua, icecream, and milk in a blender is really good

Bush and Hitler

So then as the title explains this is a blog about the similarities between Bush and Hitler. Basically as I was sitting here I realized that there are striking similarities between the two in their policies. Can anyone say Patriot act. Yeah, so I finally decided to listen to politics for a little and then it dawned on me, isn't the patriot act basically a way to monitor whoever you damn well please on the basis that they could be a possible terrorist. Honestly if you use that definition, anyone is fair game. I could even be a future terrorist because I could conceivably at some point in the future bomb something. Honestly Bush's whole agenda rest on 9/11 and the fear that it instilled in people. The whole claim that Bush is trying to protect freedom is bullshit. Anyone who really believes this, well I just have to say I'm sorry for you. Bush's goal is to keep a leash on people to give them a sense of safety. Ultimately I don't buy it. It is basically the systematic destruction of the constitution. Oh and the Department Of Homeland Security, yeah Hitler had on of those called the Gestapo. I just don't think that everything I do needs to be monitored. I mean how is my watching porn going to help the government protect people. On that note I do applaud the teacher who brought this idea to the classroom. Someone has to say it, and I fully think he has every right to present the argument as well as the opposing because what is the purpose of school if it doesn't teach people to think for themselves. I also admire google for telling the government to basically fuck off when they tried to subpoena records for everyone. Honestly if they wanted records why not at least collect searches for things like " How to join al-Qaeda" Makes more sense huh. I rest my case. Well this should teach America not to elect a stupid redneck. As the saying goes, a village in Texas is missing an idiot. My solution, vote for Oprha '08.

Blow the f*cker up!!

This is the phrase that will be heard around campus starting tomorrow with the e-days fireworks display. As I sit here my goal for e-days is to remember little if any of the events. While fun is certainly one of the prime objectives, I will be more satisfied to sit and relax, perhaps read a book. The truth of the matter is that I have been working my ass off for what seems like a majority of a semester. Keeping ahead takes a lot of work, but in the end when time slows down the relief is certainty much better. For example today I watched Mind of Mencia for several hours. You might think that I wasted my time, but I've gotten to the point where there isn't really anything more to do. I could be doing work, but I'm sick of classes, I could go and meet people, but quite frankly I have put that on the backburner so long that I really don't know if I could do anything worthwhile. On that note I will say that my housemate impressed me quite a bit during our Monday dinner when he got the waitress to be really comfortable with him, and got our group of 11 people dinner for very little. It doesn't mean much to anyone else unless you knew that he was kinda shy around women and soft spoken. For her action she got a good tip, as everyone paid regular anyway.

Spring break was fun, altogether I spent most of it working or stuck in South Dakota. When I mean stuck I mean that they closed the city within two hours of our arrival. Also, when it snows, bears and reptiles aren't open, and even Rushmore was closed. My only question is how in the hell do you decide to close a mountain? I think next year I'll try for cabo or someplace warm.

As for now I think I'll just sit back with my friend Jose and follow in the mines tradition and chant, " Blow the F*ucker up."
As always Peace and Love

oh and P.S. anyone interested fireworks are at 9:00 tomorrow. That actually means 8:30 to get in the stadium.
