well, where to start.
christmas was good. my visits to memphis have been strange. didn't get calls from or see people who were oh so torn up about me moving during any of my visits..thanks guys. it's whatever, really. i'm not hung up on it. i have a fantastic life here in indy, i'm just making an observation that was once a prediction. you guys keep living your totally awesome, definitely meaningful lives. the only person i could count on was the person i've known longer than anyone else in that city. i guess it's best that way. hands down one of the most trustworthy, genuine people i've ever known.
spring semester started monday. 17 hours this time around. my course listing is as follows:
-engw140: honors comp
-engg205: linguistics
-anth460: reconciliation in international perspective
-phil265: intro to symbolic logic
-fren203: second year french
liking all my classes so far. largest class (by a lot) is 40. smallest is 5. hopefully this summer i'll be in australia doing undergrad research on aboriginal rights with my anth professor.
quit my job at fleming's. student loan money will be more than enough to get me through if i choose not to get another job, which i just may since my courseload is what it is.
i'm ordering my ibook in a couple weeks. FEEL THE APPLE POWER.
it was warm enough to ride my bike to school today, but we're expecting snow next week.
derek left today to go to louisville to record holy bible's album. i'll be glad when he's got all of this band stuff out of the way for a while which won't be until..april. at least i'm going on tour with phoenix bodies in march. that's setting itself up to be quite the adventure. actually, i'll only be REALLY happy when we buy a house and paint our fence and get a dog and live our quiet, amazing life. no band practice in the basement 3 times a week. no phone calls from band members interrupting EVERYTHING 24/7, no cancelled dates because of shows..yes, it will be nice.
ben wants to record some bipolar bear material on saturday but i've already got a ton of homework so i don't know if i'll be up for playing.
derek's mom gave him her laptop so i'm totally in bed on the internet. it's pretty amazing.
been buying a bunch of records lately. bought a sweet bike messenger bag from manhattan portage today. should be here by tuesday. SIKED.
i believe i am going to get some delicious tea and finish the fantastic henry rollins book i am reading right now. maybe do some more french homework and try to take up the extra space in bed.
CAN I KICK IT?!
i'm doing my first show in over a year 2 fridays from now at the house. i'm very pleased to say that it's for black cross.
school,
general update,
band stuff
