ah, well tonight was dumb. i did my last Matlab assignment ever in Calculus, and it took me for freaking ever. i finished like 20 minutes ago. it was ridiculous. um...at least school is almost over, although i realized i have another paper to write for philosophy which isn't due until next Thursday, when i have my final in that class.
blah, school should just end already. i'm going on a road trip on May 26th through June 1st or 2nd, depending on when Erik needs to be back, and that should be cool. i'm going with Erik and Stu, and maybe Chris, mostly because i really really want to go with Erik and i figured Erik and Stu get along better than Erik and just about any of my other friends, and i asked Chris to go just because i love taking road trips with Chris, but i guess it's alright if he can't come. if he can't, hopefully i'll get a chance later in the summer to go somewhere with him. or maybe i'll go on that bike ride i've thought about from here to Pittsburg, with whoever feels like coming. me, Erik, and Stu are going around Lake Michigan i guess, in kind of a wide loop, and hopefully we'll get a chance to stop off in Yellow Springs, Ohio, because i feel like i missed out on a lot when i went there with Chris. i don't really know what's in Michigan, like the other half that sticks out horizontally above the main part, but there's lots of national or state parks, so it should be cool. plus the midwest is pretty alright by itself, from my experience with it, except northern Ohio.
blah. Anqi's going to be gone for three weeks in July, and i don't have anything planned for that time as far as band stuff goes, so hopefully i'll get another trip in during that time, on bikes or in cars. Geri suggested that me and him and some other people go on a road trip this summer, so i'm thinking that would be cool, just because Geri is a cool guy. i'm also thinking about going somewhere with Jake, because he seems like the exploring type and all. um, i dunno...maybe i'll just be like, "Geri! you and me are changing the oil in your Taurus and then driving to Mexico and staying there for a couple weeks." that would be cool.
having my van fully operational now is a huge relief. it was such a pain this past weekend getting it back from the shop and seeing that the fan worked for a second, and then taking it out that night and having it overheat again because the little thing that joins the fan motor to the blades was stripped and only catching some of the time (some of the time being the time me and my dad saw it turning). but i went to Crazy Ray's and got a new (to me) part and a new tail light because apparently Dan can't park his car. all told, it cost about a gazillion dollars less than getting new parts from the dealer, though. maybe this weekend i'll take Kenny to Crazy Ray's and he can get a new turn signal for his van if he feels like going up there. eh, i actually just kinda like the junkyard. it's cool salvaging working parts from non-working cars. but then again, i just think cars in general are pretty cool. actually, mostly just that my car is totally awesome and other cars are just cool.
and to make my car even cooler, it's going to hit 168,666 miles tomorrow. so there. hopefully this weekend i'll put some paint on the roof, too. my dad said it would only cost like $300 to paint the whole thing, but i feel bad painting it if it's just gonna get written on again. i wouldn't say it's worth it; i'll just put a coat of rusty metal primer on the roof and be done with it. which is weird, because on Friday night when i got a little chunk knocked out of the glass on my tail light, i immediately thought how i'd be at Crazy Ray's on Sunday afternoon getting a new one. because somehow lights are more important than the body itself. oh, well. i like the smell and ambiance of cigarette smoke, but i don't like the idea of smoking cigarettes. maybe someday i'll just light cigarettes and leave them burning for the atmospheric effect, but never actually smoke them. the end.
