meditative, scholarly
So I suppose I was feeling a little bit upset last thursday about that catherine thing. Just a little frustration release I suppose, but everything is excellent now.
So that thursday afternoon my friend josh arrived from keene NH (about 2 hours away) and we hung out and etc. Drank some brewingtons, jammed out a little bit, had fun and everything else in between. I actually skipped my only friday class, which means I've skipped three classes this semester so far. I do, however, believe I have an A average right now so I'm not worried. It WAS my new year's resolution to not miss any classes, so I'm keeping that as my resultion with an emphasis on maintaining the highest grades possible. ANYWAYS,
so friday passed pretty uneventfully and we woke up later on in the afternoon or so. We probably rocked out some more on friday / hung out and stuff, started drinking a little early probably, then went to see a band later that night. They're called the nate wilson group and they're pretty amazing. They play rock-type music with a little bit of a jammy feel, so good. On an excellent side note, I'm listening to the most amazing band My Morning Jacket, awesome!
So the concert was awesome and incredibly loud. I also asked a girl that I was dancing with if we could get together sometime and dance again, who then informed me that she was married ( ! ) I just said, "wow, I'm not even mad. more surprised than anything." I thought it was pretty funny though. The concert just rocked my socks off after a very crazy-stressful week.
Saturday was pretty excellent, OM came up with his guitar and amp and we rocked all afternoon. I'd say we played for about 7 hours total in the apartment all day. We went down to main street to hang out and play guitar in the sun and it was beautiful. I brought the snare drum and hi-hat when we saw this guy playing banjo. We hopped in with him and just jammed some tunes together and it was fun. Jeff (one of my roomates and band mate) noticed a girl who had been lab partners with him and he went over to ask her and her friend if they wanted to come chill at our place later that evening.
WELL it turned out that they are amazing girls, jenny being the quiet but cool one, and kate being the louder-more open-and really cool one. Kate also came into our apartment and started playing my guitar and I almost fainted I was so attracted. But yeah it was a lot of fun and I'm really glad we got to meet them. I'll probably meet up with kate later in the week and we'll exchange our spring break stories and etc.
So yeah that was last weekend, and this past week I stayed up at school to volunteer for a research and development workshop for oil spills. It was kind of a big deal and I was taken aback by how important it was, like the final report was being handed to a top advisor of president Obama. It was cool though I guess, I got to sit in a room and record on a computer was a bunch of doctors and Phd's of environmental chemistry and forensics said (wicked hard if you're ever thinking of trying that in your life). I had to tell them to stop a bunch of times because I was like "wtf is PAH??" and just confused about a lot of things in general, but it was a good learning experience none the less.
So I cannot bring my self to write anymore because I have kind of a lot to write about my stay in rhode island with my friend josh, but that will be for another time. I need to wake up and write a report about.......dirt. excellent. oh, kay, bye
