library time

2006-11-29T17:58:43Z

with two tests in the next two days, and then finals right after that, i find myself in the library. i expect to be here a lot until christmas. it is here that i see the strangest people. my current annoyance are girls who wear uggs (ugly Australian boot things, in case you live under a rock) with skirts. not that i think that this is an improvement over wearing your jeans tucked into them. at least there could be practicality tucking your jeans into them (say for instance... a foot of snow on the ground?) but by wearing them with jean shorts, you just look stupid. i mean, what look are you going for in these things anyways, a collegiate eskimo?
maybe they are called uggs because that's what people say every time they have to look at these stupid things. i know that i do.
and that's what really grinds my gears.

livejournal sort of got phased out with blogger.com, facebook, myspace, a few message boards, and mainly school.

but, b.b. king is amazing in concert. be jealous.

just thinking

2006-01-23T05:43:23Z

i don't know what nickelback was thinking when they wrote this song, but the chorus is such a metaphor for God's love for us:

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

but i have a chem lab at 7:20 tomorrow, so good night.

P.S.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEVIN!

I hate walking to class....

why.

2005-11-14T06:25:30Z

so i've been really busy with school and stuff lately. i worked my ass off last week, but i've been kinda slacking this week (read: slacking for me means working harder that all of you, no offense) with school, so i know that this coming week is gonna be hell.

at four this morning - going to the frat to steal stuff. (pledge thing, you wouldn't understand)
monday - sleeping, going to mr. beall's viewing, class, flag football, serenades.
tuesday - studying for my chem exam, calc homework, writing a paper, doing chem prelab, studying other classes, serenades
wednesday - lots of classes, then chem exam, then pledge mom night
thursday - doing chem hw, chem lab, calc hw, writing an english paper, floor parties (if i have time)
friday - lots more classes, finishing chem hw, writing more of an english paper, leaving to go to iu
saturday - partying and pregaming with hillary, abby, and iu losers (or they will be once purdue STOMPS them)
sunday - coming back and studying like crazy for the last two days of class before break.

but on to the real reason that i started this...

everyone's been writing stuff about mr. beall. the best writing was greg moser's (http://www.livejournal.com/users/city_boy77/11536.html)

none-the-less, it's just now hit me how i will never see him again. i will never see him staring at people so intimidatingly, and laughing on the inside because i know that he really cares for them, and just likes to have fun with people like that. i'll never hear him talk about J-Lo's butt, or hear Milton from Office Space come over his computer. i'll never hear any more retarded jokes that i love so much, "roses are red..." insults, i'll never get another ulcer when i hope that i don't have anything due in that class. like greg said, i don't remember the GNP of Venezuala, but i do remember how much he cared for all of his students.

to those of you that didn't get to meet him, you missed out. you never truly graduate MHS until you've had him.

to the greatest teacher ever to grace the hallways of MHS, you will truly be missed Mr. Beall.

speaking of a self-inflicted mood swing

2005-10-17T18:17:16Z

no. forget that! people can't bring me down. NO ONE CAN!

on the notebook, in between classes...

2005-09-30T16:05:27Z

i hate the college workload. what was i thinking, choosing engineering. i must have a death wish or something.

honestly, they must sit around and say "i wonder if we can make these kids' heads explode by cramming them full of stuff and then giving them tons of homework. i've been up past 2 every night this week doing (for the most part) homework. (excluding eating, a football game, and two weightlifting sessions)

bah! death to homework. i have to get it all done before 5:20 today. i'm going home for homecoming, so you'll see me there. then back here on saturday with dessa to watch purdue whip some notre dame ass! woohoo.

yay,.... but dang..

2005-09-02T16:17:09Z

well good news and bad new, all revolving around the same thing.

i got english 106 added to my schedule: good
i now have enough classes to keep me busy: good
my teacher is really cool: good
i have class from 4:20 - 5:30 almost every day (including fridays): bad
i have to call greg sipes and ask him to wait a little longer until he takes me home: bad
i'm behind in that class, and thus have a paper due tuesday already: bad
i'm going to cedar point with some good friends and my family this weekend: good
i forgot my cell phone in my dorm this morning: bad
i'm sitting under a tree right now beside the engineering fountain with sun and a nice breeze: awesome
i have to go to class in two minutes: suck.

conflicts

2005-08-30T16:11:46Z

i feel like i should be taking more classes. i'm not in my english class anymore for some reason (see also: scheduling conflict?) and so i only have like 14 credit hours now... for instance, i'm going to my grandma's house today before classes. should that even be allowed? whatever. i still have enough to keep me busy, to an extent.

also, i have to choose between crew and rushing and stuff. i'm anticipating a rather large class load next semester, so i don't want to do crew, as i would probably kill myself. and, i don't know where i want to rush at either. *sigh* this sucks.

i want peaches's mom to make my decisions for me, too.

well, i've officially gotten into the swing of the college workload now. i'm actually studying ahead and reading and stuff. it's crazy. i have my own motives for why i do it, but it's all good. =)

you have so much time, and yet there's so much to do...

dascoolekind @ 2005-08-23T23:59:00

2005-08-24T05:02:14Z

bitchin...

college life rocks.
there's so much freedom, but also so much boredom so far; i have too much time to do (for now) too little work.

right now the workload rivals high school, but whatever.

tonight i had movie night in my dorm. (again)
jessie and some other girls came over and watched a movie with us guys. it was tight. although, ladder 49 is a really sad movie.

well, four classes tomorrow, so i'll talk to you guys later.

sorry...

2005-08-17T07:54:58Z

sorry to scare you all with my last few entries.

i'm at purdue now, and it's AMAZING!!!
i've met awesome people, and made some incredible friends. this is truly going to be the most fun ever.

they're running us ragged up here, and i have to go on about 4 or 5 hours of sleep a night. but i'll try and sum this up for you...

i've done unimaginable things, yelled at stupid crap, sang the purdue fight song with 5,000 other freshman. (about 66% of the freshman class) i've been to more frat parties in the last three days than i can count. (not getting drunk, but having fun none-the-less) i've walked drunk people home, i've made friends in the fraternities, and thought about rushing some. i've seen no less than 3,000 cell phones get raised in a dark auditorium, and i've truly felt the might of purdue. i've been gived, literally, more free stuff than i can physically carry.

i've seen people be hypnotized, and people dance like crazy.

i'm more outgoing, more fun, and cooler than i have ever been in my life. people that meet me here have no idea that i used to be scared of what other people think. you truly do have to strip everything, and start from nothing.

i've found a place i belong, and where other people rely on me for fun. where i am not looked down upon for my social standing, because no one knows anything about me. EVER person that i've met loves me, and loves me even more when they realise that my name is, in fact, Andy Dick. i get phone calls all the time from people asking where we should go, and what we should do. i've never had this much influence on people, and i've never felt this much power. i've never known that there was this much to do, and know that i can do it. i don't THINK that i can; i KNOW that i can.

it's an amazing feeling.

too bad some people won't ever get to experience it.

and the best part, is that i'm free. also indescribable.
