Here we go

So. It’s been like. freakin’ forEVER. I know. I apologize. Really I do. I won’t make excuses.

So my life has been pretty okay since the last time I’ve been on here for real. That was like. Thanksgiving? Christmas was good. Got more new toys. But then after Christmas Verizon screwed up like they always do. We still don’t have FiOS back. Maybe by the end of February. MAYBE. New semester started. I have Japanese 2 [always fun], Visual C++ [a bore], Honors Physics [currently a joke], and Calculus [eep]. Calculus so far is just racking my brain to remember all of my past years of math. It’s tough. And as all of you know, I went to Vietnam for a week. I may be working on a page for that Saturday? I’m not sure. I have to also finish the first issue of the Newspaper *cough*. We just have picture adding and a little layout rearrangement. Ms. Rosenburg is giving Mr. Perry the draft so we can hopefully get it printed next week? I’m feeling it.

Besides that? Nothing really. I got a new backpack from my sister. Parents still in Vietnam. It’s nice not being in a loud environment.

New toys! So this Thanksgiving has been totally great.

Wed - I was out the entire day. Brittany’s Dad picked me up at 7-ish and we went to pick Brittany up from Cornell. We’re cool, so the car ride up wasn’t awkward :P I slept, watched Bleach on my Nano and talked to him. We’re cool. And and and. I got to see Briiiitttannnyyyy. I was so hella happy. Like you can’t believe. Ok /cheesy-ness. Brittany got her “new” phone. I finally got to meet her friends Sherry and Dana. They’re cool. Got to see Brittany’s room. Uhm. Walked around the campus. I still say Swarthmore is so much prettier. But it’s still pretty. Walked around the Cornell store. Smoothie place was closed. Wah. Then we went home. Brittany and I watched the unaired pilot of Heros, some Doctor Who, then listened to music for the rest of the ride back. When we got back, we unloaded the car and the rest of her family got to say hi to Brittany. They all talked and got caught up then we all went to Chili’s for dinner. We ate and had a good time. Came home, chilled for a little bit then Amanda called and asked if we wanted to go to Rita’s and called Jesse to see if he wanted to come. Got to Rita’s. it was closed. So we went to Friendly’s and had some ice cream. Amanda tried to hit Jesse with her car. Nice.

Thursday - Leslie was back home for Thanksgiving. My Mom and Dad were asleep when I departed for Brittany’s house to hang out. We watched Aladdin and the Cave of Cheeseburgers. And just chilled. Not gonna lie. I can’t remember if we did anything else :D
I had to leave at around 4:30 to go to my cousin’s. Thanksgiving dinner / Mimi’s birthday was fun. I left when Leslie left because I was getting a bit tired and was hoping to go to Brittany’s house. But alas, that wasn’t allowed. *shrug* So I talked to Brittany on the phone then slept.

Friday - OMG LOOK. A digital camera was sitting on my computer chair :) Why? Black Friday dealz. Plus, as Leslie put it, my Christmas/Birthday/Graduation present. It’s a Sony Cybershot [DSC-S700 if you wanted the specifics]. It’s a nice camera. I just didn’t open it until Sunday. So anyway. Talked to Brittany in the morning. She went shopping with her Mom. I stayed home until my Mom came home so we could go to Borders then to Neshaminy Mall. I got people gifts at the mall and I got myself the Metal Slug Anthology for the Wii and a Wii Points Card. After my Mom left, I found this awesome looking game that’s four way chess. So I bought that too. I stayed there until Brittany and her friends/Josh came to watch Enchanted. Watched it. Had a good time. Amanda, Dani/Josh, and Brittany/I went to Friendly’s afterwards and had dinner. Amanda got picked up after dinner and Josh drove everyone else home. Brittany couldn’t find Froggy that day :( [the plushie frog I got her before she left for college]. Then she went to her sleepover. We talked sometime during that sleepover when I was playing Metal Slug. Then sleep.

Saturday - Brittany still couldn’t find Froggy :( I caught up in Bleach and read Portrait and talked to Brittany. At about 5, I left to go to Brittany’s house. Amanda, Carly, Lauren, Steph, Dani, and Courtney also came. Amanda, Brittany, Steph and I played Egyptian Ratscrew. Then Amanda left. Then Carly, Lauren, Steph, Brittany, and I played Life. Steph won out of nowhere. Carly and I had the same amount of money at the end. Brittany had the least amount of money… and she was the doctor. I was a cop. My starting salary was 10 grand more than Brittany :) All of them left. I chilled with Brittany. We were outside when we were saying our last good byes. Except we got interrupted and she had to come back in and I had to leave. So we couldn’t say good bye properly. I was sad it was going to be the last time I saw her until Winter Break :( Since she still couldn’t find Froggy, I gave her my hat to remember me. [Everyone: Aw.]

Sunday - Ok. I lied. I talked to her a little bit on the phone. Got ready for church. As I put on my jacket, OMG I found Froggy in my sleeve. I asked my parents if I could return it to her, and they agreed. So we got to say good bye better and she got Froggy back. And, don’t worry guys, I got my hat back. Church happened. Brunch with the family. Played with my new camera for the first time. Grocery shopping at Reading Terminal Market. Home! Finished my Astronomy Project [not really prepared for the presenting part but oh well], talked to Brittany. Gotta finish Portrait and do Aristotle stuff. But that shouldn’t be difficult.

All in all. I had an awesome weekend. SK is a scrub for playing some lame game. I say we play Ninja again. It’s about cold enough, I’d say hahaha.

SK: evan d and i are having this big poetic conversation where we are each saying how wonderful earth is and how great our lives can be if we just enjoy it. its inspiring haha
Vince Tran: it’s a nice place. I won’t lie.

*ahem* New internet :)

Psychology has been oh-kay. We finished our last unit of perception and now we’re going starting disorders. We’re currently watching A Beautiful Mind right now.

Astronomy has been fine. Our current presentation is on comets. I picked a theoretical group of comets  theorized by a German astronomer named Heinrich Kreutz. Cool.

English is. a pain. So much work!  We’re applying six literary approaches to silly works. I fought Paul today. No one won because Rosenburg broke it up. I mean she let us fight as long as no one got hurt. So all I could do was counter his “wrestling” with made up grappling. I earned some respect from some other people because Paul is annoying.

Latin has been an experience. Apparently I’m Mr. Burtt’s favorite in the class. Two annoying kids in that class. They were absent yesterday, class was so enjoyable.

Blue/Gray has started for no reason. Lit Mag is…, I’m not gonna lie, boring right now.  Newspaper is going pretty well. It’s quite an experience.

SIX DAYS.

Ok bye.
