MUST UPDATE
So, this last week has flown by....but at the same time it currently feels like we've been here for a month. Crazy.
So exactly a week ago yesterday everyone got back to school! I picked up Amy from the Airport. I missed my exit to get to the Portland Sheet Music Service store and so we had quite an adventure getting back and finding it, only by the time we got there, we noticed it was closed. This was sad, but still a fun side trip. Anyway came back down to Corvallis where upon helping Amy get her stuff upstairs Rose came back to the dorms. We got all of her stuff upstairs and then not long after that, Amanda showed up. Then after getting her settled in, we heard Cass would be there soon, so we got dinner and finished the first episode of Firefly which had been started about three times earlier that day. Anyway, the point I guess is this week has run very much like the first day in that craziness was abound and we all had fun doing it!
Monday we all started classes again. Theory is going to nail me unless I really keep ahead and study a lot. I'm still hopeful though. I seem to be hopeful about a lot of things recently. Nothing wrong with it I think, as long as I can also stay realistic to a degree. Ah yes, the struggle to be balanced. Yet at the same time, if this metiphorical pendulum stayed 'balanced" it would be still, stagnant perhaps, and might then be associated with boringness. And that simply wont do. I'm not worried though.
Yeah, anyway...
Monday was great in that we all survived class and then Andrew and I ACTUALLY went to Dixon. We were so proud. Now to make those trips consistant. Yeah we'll see. Then after Dixon, I decided to act on something I had been pondering for quite some time. I went over to the dorms and asked Amy if she would like to go out sometime. I'm so original. *rolls eyes*. But regardless, she said yes. SWEET!!! yeah that was a happy day. Then we watched more Firefly! And Amanda and her amazing detective skills was able to deduce that I was there and all because of my stupid loud single clap thing I do. Yeah...anyway. Good times.
Moving on, The week was then FULL of hanging out with friends and Andrew already falling behind in work. Great how this works huh? But luckily today I've been working on it, and I'm about caught up. Go ME!!
So, you heard about Thursday and the longest day ever. Yes....hopefully never again. But none of that matters because the next day was Friday the 13th!! Of coures this was the day planned for Amy's and my first date. I thought I would be casual and not put any unneccessary pressure on her, so I showed up in just a T-shirt. Boy did I throw off the Universe. Amanda and Rose had guessed that I'd wear a button up shirt which by all means makes the most sense. However, I guess it was just a freak day. So we went to Outback which was awesome then to gelato! mmmm gelato. Then upon arriving back we walked around the campus a bit and then back home. We watched Firefly with the other girls when we got back and all was well! Such a great night!
Anyway...Saturday! drove up with Amy to Newberg to get my old passport and up to Portland to pick up my Libretto that I had ordered. Then we checked out the Scottish shop and headed home for the shindig that would ensue later on that evening. So Andrew and I cooked a bunch a food, too much in fact, but I believe it was pretty enjoyable. After that there was Firefly and DDR and merriment all around! An amazing week for sure. But wait there's more...
On Sunday, Amanda and I went up north and picked up Brittney and went to Jeremy's house to suprise him for a 21st birthday celebration. He was quite suprised, but more jet-lagged then anything. Twas fun though. Amanda and I made the most incredible come-back at trivial persuit! Then it was back to Corvallis. Finally, today Andrew and I actually made it back to Dixon, where ater our normal work-out we were joind by the girls for some Volleyball action!! That was Awesome! I must say, I've never enjoyed volleyball as much as I did today! Then we came back to the house for food, and then as always...DDR. But yes..then Jeremy came over and will be hanging out here in Corvallis tomorrow.
So, being as how I have class tommorrow at 9 I shall hit the hay!
Good night, and what an Incredible week!!
