Well I'm back to the Islands from a long 10 day vacation involving my Grandparents' 50th Wedding Anniversary and a cruise to Jamaica, the Grand Caymans, and Cozumel. This makes my 10th cruise and I must tell you I'm so tired of them. After about the 4th the magic dissipates and after the 10th you know all the songs the waiters / lounge singers are going to sing (that one Italian song, Margaritaville, an Elton John song, Hot Hot Hot, etc), you know what will be in the Midnight buffets and know you never win in bingo and you always get ripped off in art auctions. Drinks are always $10 each and they won't let you have your own alcohol on board. You go to the islands and have to take a taxi away from all the souvenir shops / hasslers. You share these wonderful 'excursions' with a million other people (or in the case of this ship - 3200 other people). The entertainment on the ship only consists of gambling (casinos, bingo), shopping (the Spa, the stores, everything), or eating (a buffet 24 hours a day and food being forced at you constantly). They say the average weight gained is 8-16 lbs! I only gained one. I linked to the photos to save space -

I just finished my nerdy Corp Finance class. The teacher seems really fun and the material is not so much theoretical like most business classes but talks about the real world. We have only one test, no homework. Exxxxxxxcellent.
Chris came over last night when I got back. Apparently Wizard Boots was very loved at this one show we did at a pool hall (Rack Daddys) with his friend Phalin as drums -
They want us to do shows at ALL their locations in the next few months for $300 a show. Makin some real money this summer eh? Also he cut his hair and I dyed mine so we look very different. I can tell he's been smoking the weed lately because he's starting to act a little insane like he used to when I first met him. That's good and bad I guess. Sometimes I feel a little insane and he's not and then vice versa. Why can't it be insane all the time?
Ramble. Now that my arm is better I can start decorating again, ((snortsnortnerdsnort)).
And it's official - party at my new apartment as well as Christine's (and if we get the girls who live below us to be in on this party, it will be an entire 2-story house party). I want to get musicians (Chris, Christine, maybe the Off Button depending on the load) to play downstairs on the bottom porch, I want to serve sangria and beer, and I want to designate one wall in my apartment for art (everyone can draw on that one wall as long as they don't touch the other ones). I'm kind of excited though it sucks a lot of people are gone.
Speaking of everyone being gone, that's not true. There is a new bunch of people on campus that scare me - the cheerleading camp. A bunch of sticks running around with their Starbucks and bug glasses who look all about 12 years old. I almost fell in the bushes walking out of class when this small group in the shade started to chant. WTF? Go back to daycare.
The end.
Oh, and I also find this humorous -
