Merry Late Christmas!

Well, Merry Christmas! I hope everyone's christmas went well. I hung out with my family and got lots of cool presents: an iPod, a sony picture printer, a skirt, a shirt, and more cool stuff. My photo printer is not compatible with my camera, so i have to get a new digital camera, so if anyone wants to offer me great amounts of money for my other one-i only got it one year ago, so it's still nice-feel free.
Tonight I am going camping with a large number of people from my graduating class. It is about 30 to 35 degrees here during the day, and it is completely clear out, so i am guessing it is gonna be REALLY FREAKIN COLD tonight. This could be a dumb idea, but i don't think my class was known for its brilliance, so off we go. Out to a random rockpit out a random road with no cell service. Fun pictures should be coming soon.

A big loser...

..is what I was last night. I lost miserably at trivia with amber, tyna and nyle, which is very disappointing seeing that we kicked some ass last time we played. Then I lost two games of pool in a row with my teammate Caryn. We didn't do so well. Sad. All in all, not a real successful night for me. But it was fun at least, so that's good. It is absolutely pouring rain right now. This is Alaska. We're supposed to live in igloos or something, so where's the damn snow? This sucks. Well, I think I get to babysit for Jen's kid, Rylan, tonight while she goes to a bachelorette party. Time for some high quality birth control. Wish me luck.

Petersburg

Well, I'm home now, and getting lots of shit for not updating my blog. I am on our home computer, so once I figure out how to connect my laptop to our internet, i will post some pictures. I got home Friday and spent most of the weekend at the gym watching my brother's basketball tournament. Besides that, nothing too exciting around here (surprised? not really) at least it stopped raining--it was pouring out ever since i got home. i want it to snow. that would be more fun than rain. the getting dark at 3 thing sucks too...i didn't get up until 11 today and now i only have 4 hours of lightness. wonderful. well, i am going to go walk my housesitting dog, but i will post pictures later on.

Too Many Parties

Well my weekend has consisted of writing all day, parties all night. it all started thursday with the clamato. fortunately, i wrote a 6 page paper that night too (i haven't actually read it yet, it could be terrible). then, friday, the whitman history department (art history, too) decided to get us all drunk at the dinner. Then there was Saturday, when we had the Theta holiday party followed by the Sirens CD release party (they're the accapella women's group) followed by the PhiGi party, where i got mad for a basically really dumb reason and snuck out and went home and worried my friends when they realized i had suddenly disappeared. Tonight I am supposed to hang out with Dan and Adam, but I really need to write my Sex paper so I may try to move that til tomorrow night. Besides, my liver is crying.

Clam-ato....

is pretty nasty. I just got back from The Stone Hut, where me and the guys I work with (the teachers, not the inmates) at the Penitentiary went to for a couple hours. The teacher I work with insisted I try this weird thing that i can't even remember the name of, but consists of beer, salt, and clamato juice. Which I learned is tomato juice with seafood, particularly clams, somehow mixed into it. This is quite possible the most disgusting thing i have ever heard of in my entire 21 years. It actually tasted like a Bloody Mary, but the thought of clams made it impossible to drink. Oh man i am getting nauseous just thinking about this, two of the grossest things ever, tomato juice and clams. Sick.

High and Historical

Me, Sarah, Andrew, Nate and Matt are at 905 right now, in Andrew's room. We just got back from The Green, having a "we just got done with our last historical methodologies class ever and are finally 21 so let's go to the bar to celebrate" get-together. We are listening to music that i have never heard before....let me ask who it is. hold on. stone temple pilots. Not only do i not know any of their songs, i have not even heard of this band at all. I must be a cultural loser. I like rap. Give me snoop, dre, or eminem any day. 50 cent is good too. update: there are three stoned guys dancing behind me. I think i should give this up now, and maybe hide becasue they're freaking me out a little. i'll give you more info on this very weird situation later.

Prison

Well, not too much excitement is happening right now. As soon as I do something cool, I'll practice my picture blogging skills. Tonight I'm just sitting around doing homework...I did work at the Penitentiary tonight, so that is always a good time. I also got my third request to be a penpal. Although I did politely decline, at least this one asked nicely...the last two wrote disgusting, fairly graphic letters before they asked if it was ok. So they had to go, far far far away from my classroom, forever. Besides the drama of the prison, I'm pretty sure there is nothing else to report.
On an EXTREMELY HAPPY NOTE, tomorrow is the LAST HISTORICAL METHODOLOGIES CLASS EVER IN MY LIFE!!!!!! YAY! If you took this class, you would understand the pain. Thank you for the sympathy, Ferguson.

New Comments

Well, I added this haloscan comments thing, because zieak, who is far more computer literate than me, said that is what he uses. And I want to be just like him. So now maybe anyone can leave comments, where before it was either 1)only other registered blogger users, or 2)your comment had to be anonymous. So, leave me a comment to see if it works!!!

Oh yeah, so i turned in the 21-page draft of my illegal abortion paper, and I am almost done proof-reading my paper for the history of sex and sexuality in Latin America. I'm slowly marking them off my list of eight million papers to write.

One more thing, my friend's (who I have promised not to name) 21 Run went, well, like a 21 Run should I guess. I ended my night holding her over the toilet in the MEN's bathroom at the Green at 2 AM. Quite the ghetto bathroom, by the way. As she was hugging the toilet, it fell over. Seriously. The whole thing literally fell over, and I had to pick it back up so she could continue to puke. Good times in the Walla Walla dive-bar scene.

21 Run

Well, the house got trashed, but it was nothing a couple buckets of soapy water and two mops couldn't fix. Plus the Phi's are the most gentlemanly of all the frats and came over this morning to help us clean. Tonight is the Junior/Senior party, so we can have one last thing together before us juniors go abroad and they graduate. Then, my housemate whose name i just deleted as she does not want to be named turns 21 at midnight so we are taking her out. Should be a good time.

Office Party

Well, my house has been volunteered, by someone who doesn't actually live here, of course, to be the host of my sorority's function with the Phi fraternity tonight. Great. A couple guys just hauled a keg, four handles of vodka, gin, and bacardi, a fifth, and 8 liters of pop into our kitchen. Hopefully no major damage to my house is done tonight. I'm going to have to stay sober enough to do damage control...

Papers up the ass

I have, as of now...let me think...48 pages worth of papers (four papers total) to write between now and Tues the 14th. Damn, that sucks. A 25 pager, 10 pager, 8 pager, and 5 pager. On a happier note, i figured out how to post to this thing. I can't do pictures yet, that will have to happen later, but this alone is quite the accomplishment for me. i'm impressed with myself. Now, instead of writing my papers, I can post to this, which no one will probably even read.

I suck at these

Well, i kinda figured it out, a little. still working on it. I'm a little technilogically stupid. This could take a while.
