Full Day

Today was my first full day of being home. Summer is here. I expect that blog posts will be far and few during the summer. Lots of working. Lots of frisbee. Lots of summer things.

A Miracle

A miracle happened today. I got access to my apartment. It finally happened. Yes I know, hold the applause.  Only draw back is that I took the moped there and it has been pouring all day. I mean it is straight dumping right now. So I got drenched, and that is never fun. But it is finally done. Amen. 

Its the most plain place ever. I dont care. The dorms were plain. I am not a picky man. I mean I lived in Rachel's back room/ closet thing for five weeks so I can live anywhere. 

Rain rain go away. Mostly because I get wet. 

Not a lot happening in Pullman. Just counting down the days till I can go home and work. 

Isnt life a great thing?

A lonely Weekend

Well I have had this weekend to work on my final essay. But then again I have all week to do it. So naturally I became so bored, I would entertain myself with my homework. So I have several million words worth of my essay already completed. I have spent most of my time in either of the two coffee shops downtown, stealing WiFi this weekend. Its a sad existence. Tomorrow rent is due for my apartment which I wont even be living in. I have to call tomorrow and see what their preferred payment type is. If it is check, I have to bike to Moscow and get a cashier's check. If they do cash I will be so happy because then I can just go to a close ATM machine and pull money out. 

Its Father's day today. I sure wish I wasn't in a coffee shop several hundred miles away from my family. I miss them. I really just miss human contact all together. I talk the most and interact the most when I am in class. Its definitely come to the point where class is the best part of the day by far. Only five more days until class is over. The thing I fear most is that my teachers will cancel class as we near the end. What would I do if I didn't have class to go to? Study? No. I have nothing to study. Its my paper. But I will probably finish that tomorrow or Tuesday. Netflix during "finals week." Probably going to happen.

Cheyenne's brother gave her a bike to take to Pullman. But its kinda a basket-case. Its got this beautiful orange paint on it. It needs to be redone kinda bad. Its a road bike which will be good for Pullman. But its also a single speed fixed geared bike. I haven't ridden one in recent memory, unless I count little sister Sarah's first bike she got in like 2001. Its the kind of bike where the pedals spin the entire time you are riding. Apparently this kind of bike is all the rage in the hipster scene. So I am going to redo it for Chey for her birthday. 

Got some funky straight bars on it now, but drop bars are what I think I will put on it. 

Going for something kinda/ sorta along these lines. 

Hope it turns out well. Chey wanted to design it, I said ok. But I am not gonna let her see it until the end.

Dad and Dalton (+ anyone else who wants to see me) are coming to pick me up at the end of the week. Plus we got to put all our junk in the apartment. Should be good to get that done now rather than later.

Not much planned this week. Probably nothing note worthy to post unless something amazing happens during the week. Adios

One To Go

Only One paper left. Thats really all I have next week. There are lots of ALIVE students here right now. I was one of them just a year ago. Funny how much can happen in a year. College year one has zoomed by at warp speed. I dont see next year slowing down any.

Right now the World Cup is going on. I am sitting in the CUB and there a million people standing around. Literally the most I have ever seen. Mexico and Cameroon are playing. Mexico scored two minutes ago and the entire CUB was screaming. Its funny how into soccer people are. 

I just miss football.

Only 84 Days until Week 1.

Surprise

Chey came and surprised me. We had an awesome day and my birthday was awesome. We biked around in between my classes. I got to open some presents. We played Frisbee golf. We walked around campus. We watched ducks and other pond critters do their thing at a pond. We got a tent. We camped in the front yard with a fire and everything. Pretty good day.
