On August 11th, I'll head out of Seattle and go to Mount Rainier. When I'm there, I'll be at an archaeology dig wherein I'll help locate Native American sites in the area... and I'll get six credits out of the three week journey (at PLU, a class is worth four credits, to give you folks on the quarter system a perspective). I wonder what it will be like? Will it be tiresome, or invigorating? Will I enjoy it for the experience, or endure it for the credit? I'm excited to find out. I'm working out at the gym even more intensely than usual to be ready, and I'll definitely go through the reading materials a few times through so I can nail the test material (which we take before heading out there). There's plenty of gear to buy as well.

My summer has gone exceedingly well. I've been a bit lazy when it comes to reading... But anything less than 100+ pages a day is considered slothful to me now, and it's good to relax after such a hard-hitting school year. My grades were great, though, so it was more than worth it. Best of all, MGS4 was everything I had hoped it to be. Have I played a better game? I don't think so. The only complaint I have is that I can't sleep at night... Guh, oh well.

Next year will be superb too. I'm looking forward to having Austin as a roommate, and then use the dorm room as a base of operations to invite everyone I can over. This will be superb.

Aside from a lack of sleep, the only thing that bothers me now is the shaving sensation of desiring something, but not knowing what I desire. It's that "Joy" C.S. Lewis wrote of. Well, my dreams have been interesting. I'll listen to them, for it seems that when I sleep, I get a closer vision of the source of that longing.
