Well my Spring Break ended this Monday when classes resumed. I guess I should tell you guys about it, essentially it was a great big road trip with my roomate Jon and friends Bory and Bryan. We drove this dying van about 3000 miles, from Redding to San Jose to Bakersfield to the Grand Canyon to Zion National Park, Utah to Reno, to Cool, California then back to Redding. It was a lot of fun, got to see Hien who graduated my freshman year and got to see the Grand Canyon for the second time in my life *but I was too young to remember the first time*. The two biggest problems with the trip were the $160 hotel room at the Grand tourist trap... er Canyon... no it was worth the trip though, just that night we should have drove the 50 miles to Williams and stayed at a Motel 6 or sumthing. The biggest of the two problems was the van, after about 300-400 miles a day it would start to refuse to shift into 3 and 4th gear so we'd be stuck at 50mph so that the rpms wouldn't be too bad. it would perform better when we'd give it a day off first, but even then it would kill out before the day was done, which caused us to go to Reno instead of Las Vegas because we didn't think the van would make it that far, especially in our meager 9 days of travel/fun.

Outside of Spring Break I've been doing the normal, school work, job work, time with friends and girl friend, videogames and lots of board games (axis and allies original, europe and pacific; aquire, diplomacy, civilization the board game, settlers of catan, seafarers of catan).

My plan is to go back to Bako for the summer and hopefully find a job *crosses fingers*, I'm really gonna need that money in a few years... especially since I have no idea what I'm gonna do when I graduate.

Melissa I found your game, so I could mail it to you if you don't want to wait until summer.

I saw the Passion over spring break, I thought it was really good, but I'm leary of the way people up here practically worship it and Mel Gibson. But I think it's pretty demonstrative of Jesus' mercy and sacrifice.

I also saw Dawn of the Dead, which was kick butt! w00t for Zombies and Zombie Killers adn the Moap Master! *read Maddox's review!*
