my notebook, like pen and paper, for my school work when i sit here, like so i can write and remember stuff, is an old journal that i only wrote in a couple of times. In that old journal, where my last entry is from right before i started my livejournal, it says that i may keep an online journal, and here it is. My goals are to get through this semester with a 3.5 or better and to make my room look human by May. I have old pictures and stuff hanging around in the mess. One in particular I hope I find I am going to write about right here. In 2008 I went to Havasupai Indian reservation at the bottom of the grand canyon, and there is a bunch of stray dogs, called reservation dogs, or res dogs, that hang out and are strays on the reservation. I befriended one pup, and i even caved and bought ridiculously expensive dog food for him which he didnt eat. The reason the food was so damn expensive is they had to bring it to the bottom by helicopter or mule. The village and lodge are 8 miles into the canyon off a dirt road. This little pup, who would rather eat trash than real food, followed me all the way out, the whole 8 miles. I hope he is still alive. He was so sweet. I told the other hikers to take care of him and hope he didn't get hit by a car or something, since i left him in a parking lot, that was paved, at the top of the canyon.
