UGH!!!!!!

I worked catering today. I was supposed to be there at 8 but I got there at 8:45. It was very boring and a lot of tedious and tiring things. I mostly just walked around with milk asking people if they wanted some. They usually didn't. Then I came back to my dorm and slept from 1-6:45. I hate family weekend. I hate seeing all of the cute little families. I hate that everyone is busy doing something else. I hate being sick. I hate being hung up on. I hate just sitting here. UGH!! Maybe I will call my mom and go home for the rest of the day.

Usually good food

I am really tired, but having fun. My first week at Concordia.

I moved in on August 30th and met my clubies. That night there was a welcome show which was pretty awesome. On Monday our club volunteered at Elim. I attempted to scrape food off of chairs, but I was fairly unsuccessful. Then we went to some seminars. The first one was called "Blank Slate" and was probably the most awkward experience of my life. One scene had a handicapped gay kid who was a huge slut and a potty mouth, another had a girl who had just gotten out of rehab and was yelling at her mother who didn't talk at all, one was about a guy who had raped this girl and was apologizing for it. The second thing I had to do was take an academic Proficiency Assessment. I don't think I did too well since I didn't write much. That night there was Cabaret which was very good the people doing it had lots of talent. The next day we had two more seminars, one of which was on LeadNow, which is a club I think I will be involved in this year. Then we had department previews where I found out I should probably scrap that plan from before. Then I met with my advisor who seems like a nice guy. After that I went to the Resource fair and got a die cut of a corncob. On Wednesday we went to a bunch of boring seminars, but we got to do our club cheer before each of them and that was pretty neat. Then we went to the President's Reception and Ice Cream Social. I was nervous that I would be covered in ice cream. Later our floor went to savers and got some costumes for the theme dance. On Thursday classes began. There was an Opening Convocation where one professor brought out a sorting hat for whatever reason. Then we had the beanie toss, and club 9 was right in front so a few of us got to be in the paper. My first class was Global Lit. and the Human Experience. I still need to do the reading from that class. Later I had World History in perspective to 1500 with my roomie, Jen. Those classes are both really long but also pretty interesting. In history we talked about the necessity of war. That night I went to the outdoor movie Up which was cute. On Friday I went to Wellness for fifteen minutes, the to Oral Com which I have with my clubies and Leadership which is also with them. For wellness we have to go to this seminar called "Drunk Sex or Date Rape: Can you tell the difference?" which is on Tuesday. I am really excited for that -_- Friday night was the theme dance. Our floors theme was purple. The floor below us went as mimes. Last night we had the Livedalen Olympics. In the first event we had to build a bell tower out of marshmallows and toothpicks. Then we had to pass a banana down a line using our feet. The third event made us blow into a bowl of flour until all of the flour was out of the bowl. The last event we had to smash eggs (some hard boiled and some not) on our RAs head until the got on that was raw. It was like Russian Roulette but with eggs. We lost all of the events. Today I played Frisbee with some people and had some fun. Everyone is so nice and friendly here.

Can you just leave?

Some bitchass kids came up to my door. They wanted to sell me some gold card for football. I told the stupid boy that my mother was not home and he asked if my dad was home. I really wanted to either say "fuck you, I don't need a man to tell me what to do" or "He is dead, kay" but I just said no he isn't. Then the stupid boy asked when they would be back, and I said "Maybe in an hour." The stupid little girl just kinda sat there looking like a freak.

I move into the dorms in 10 days and I am very excited. I think orientation will be fun. Classes begin on September 3rd and that makes me nervous. The Classes shouldn't be hard, but I am worried that I will underestimate the work load.

I am going to go get my yearbook.

Thoughts on Nationals and New School Year

Nationals was sooooooooo much fun! I think i liked Tennesse more, but this is a very, very close second. I was worried that the heat would make convention unbearable, but after the first day it was fine. The food that they served was very good. The only thing I really didn't like and couuld not get used to was the number of bikes. It was so scary walking down the street and almost getting hit by five bikes on one block. I didn't like spirit. I never like spirit. The RUSH day was okay because we actually had props. The fact that Ethan and Noah kept the extra money really pisses me off. They could have used the rest of it to get more props or could have put it in a fund for future us. They basically cheated everyone else. If a real politican did that they would get thrown out of office. It just makes me so angry. Other than those few off sets convention was a blast. It was a lot of fun hanging out with Brie, Jared, and Andrew at the ARC. Late night shenanigans with Brie is a nationals tradition. So many good quotes came from this trip too!
Post-nationals was also really fun. I had breakfast at the Fishermans' Warf with Brie, Jared, Andrew, and Schneider. Then the whole group when to Ghirardelli Square, and after a disappointing brownie Brie, Jared, Andrew, and I went on an adventure. First we took a bus to Chinatown and walked around there for a bit. Then we took the MUNI to the Castro and checked that out. Then we were escorted to Haight-Ashbury by a hippie. We ate there and then walked around looking at the multitude of bongs, bumper stickers and hippie gear. I didn't realize I was extremly tired until we were about to head back to the amtrak. In San Jose we went to a really nice Denny's.

School starts soon and I am very nervous. I have a lot of the things that I will need but I don't have everything I would like. My mom is making this somewhat difficult because she won't let me get any furniture yet.

My sleep schedule has been really off. I want to get out of the house, but that has been difficult since I don't know if I can drive.
I am really excited for natz. It will be so much fun. Maybe I should make some crafts to enter in contests.

I really like the Harry Potter Movies. I am excited to see hp6 soon.
I completes my loan stuff (I think)
I really enjoyed the movie Bruno.
I actually am excited to get my wisdom teeth out.

Picasa

Fargo has been lacking. There are too many mosquitoes to go outside and everything else costs money.
cheese
It is also to warm outside.
I am also not a fan of certain things going on.
There are too many assumptions.
I want something interesting to happen.
It won't.
I am hungry.

Plane over North Canada close to Greenland

On the plane to Chicago I sat next to Mrs. Malm. It was pretty fun. I am super tired! There are some really annoying people on this plane. I think they are going to Vienna, I heard them talking about it. I am sitting next to Adam Berndt. He gave me his cheese when they gave us dinner. So, I guess you can listen to poetry on this flight. I think that's weird. I KNOW I won't be able to sleep on this flight. Okay, maybe I will, but I will be very uncomfortable. Right now I am listening to a some-what sucky song. Well, it's not bad, it's just not that great. I watched the movie She's just not that into you. I liked it. I am tired. I think I will attempt to sleep.

Hotel Titania
Athens, Greece

Today we saw many things. We first saw the Old Olympic Stadium.Then we went to the Parliment building and the tomb of the unknown soilder. At the Olympic Stadium (I think) there were some bitches forcing you to take birdseed and take a picture of you with the birds and make you buy it. After all of that we went to the Acropolis. I really liked it there. The Parthenon was smaller than I imagined it. I absolutely adore the Erecthion. Then we ate lunch and went shopping. I bought a magnet and a statue of a Karyatid. After that we went back to the hotel and I took a two hour nap. Then we all learned some Greek dances and went to dinner. The place we ate at had live dancing and music. The dancers invited us up on stage to dance with them. It was tons of fun. They also had baklava for dessert! Opa!

June 14, 2009
Hotel Titania
Athens, Greece

We started off the day with a Catholic Mass at Saint Denis. Then we went to the national Archaeological Museum. I saw the Statue of Zeus and the Mask of Agamemnon. Then we went to Monastirake Sq. and had some gyros. After that some of us went to the ancient agora and the stoa. It was very pretty there, many olive trees and beautiful statues. after we were there, we went to the beach. I had a lot of fun swimming. The water was such a pretty blue. As we went back to the Hotel, Gabe lost his passport. He seemed very calm about it. Had I lost mine, I would be bawling. When we got back to the hotel I hung out with Gabe, Adam, and Dalton. We Chelsi, Caitlyn, and Callah went to the top of the hotel to get a grand view of Athens. You could see everthing from up there. It was amazing.

ELLI T. Ferry
Ionian Sea

Today we went to Delphi! On the way there I bought a book that is a guide to the ruins. It is in Italian, but the pictures have a laminent part that shows what the ruins looked like in ancient times. I can make out what some of it says. After we saw the ruins we went to a cute, little cafe and I had an "eggplant shoe" and some Lemonade. Then we went back to Delphi to the museum to see the charioteer statue. I thought it was amazing. We only had two minutes to see it, so Adam, Strand, and I decided we would come back next year. Strand suggested we sell kidneys to pay to come back, but I thought she said kitties. I mentioned we had unneutered cats on my block and she started to laugh. We decided it would be best to sell both. The ferry we are on is very nice. The sea is not making me feel sick at all. Tomorrow we will land in Brindisi just like Valerius the hottie from Ecce Romani. The food we had was good, but there was too much of it. I played Yatee for the first time and got a Yatzee in my first game! I am excited for Italy!

June 16, 2009
Hotel Carlton International
Sorrento, Italy

There are so many lemons here! I had Lemoncello, Lemoncello with cream, Lemon slushie, Lemonade, and Lemon Soda. I also bought some lemon purfume. It is very pretty here. Our hotel room has a view of the sea and the towm. There are many vulgar things in the gift shops, however, tomorrow we are going to Pompeii and Capri.

June 17, 2009
Hotel Carlton International
Sorrento, Italy

Pompeii was very intereting. The frescos are so beautiful. There was a groupof dogs that followed us. It was cute. We gave them names and back stories. After Pompeii we took a ferry over to Capri. It was very beautiful there. We took a boat tour of the whole island and went into the blue grotto. After that we hiked up to Villa Jovis, Tiberius' Villa. It was so pretty there.

June 18, 2009
Hotel Nova Domus
Rome, Italy

We went many places today. At the Colosseum we had the same guide that we had two years ago, Heidi. Then we went to the Forum. I really like the Forum. Then after dinner we went to the Trevi Fountain. I LOVED that. It was dark out so all of the staues were lit from underneath. Them we stopped for some gelato. I had Tiramisu and Hazelnut, but I also tried some of Bob's Lemoncello gelato. It was all very delisious. Then we went to the Spanish Steps and I got some very nice soveniers. The Metro System in Rome is surprisingly nice. It is not as nice as DC's ofcourse, but it is still quite clean, and I did not see anything too sketchy. Although there were some Italian guys pantsing each other which was pretty funny. I think some thing is wrong with my wrist. It hurts whenever I put pressure on it.

June 19, 2009
Hotel Nova Domus
Rome, Italy

Our tour of The Vatican was amazing! We had a very good guide. We saw Apollo del Belvedere and the Laocoon group. We also went to the Raphael Rooms and saw the School of Athens. I love that piece. The we went into the Sistene Chapel. I could have stayed in there forever. The Last Judgement blows me away. After that we went to the Pantheon. Then we got some gelato. I got Kinder Bueno, Caffe, and Cioccolato Fondente. After a little shopping Hannahlee, Savannah, Kaia, Maddie, and I went and sat on some steps and a little later some other people came and sat with us and we decided to look for some place interesting. Gabe looked up and said that it looked like we were in San Ignazio Sq. I freaked out and ran into the church which I guess surprised a lot of people. That Church is amazing, another place I could spend a whole day in. It was such a plesant surprise. Later we ate dinner near Piazza Navona. After that some of us wanted to go to San Maria del Popolo. I was very sad to see that it was closed, but from 9 to 11 the Electric Company was celebrating 100 years of service or something. They had dance and singing, and acrobats. They also had a water screen to project a movie thing on. Before the show we played big fat pony and oboeshanotantotan with some girls from Germany. The finale was so spectacular, there were fireworks and amazing music. Today was a great day, but my feet are dead.

June 20, 2009
Grand Hotel Mediterraneo
Florence, Italy

The first thing we did today ws go to Tarquinia. It is a cute, little, medival town. We went to the musuem wnich was kind of boring, but there were some interesting things there like the winged horses. Then we stopped for some gelato. I had Nutella and Caffe. Then, after a walk around the town, we went to the Necropolis, the Etruscan Tombs. They were pretty interesting and the landscape there was beautiful, but it smelled pretty gross in the tombs themselves. Then we went on to Florence. We went to Mass in the Duomo! That Building is amazing. The ceiling of the dome is so intereting, it shows the levels of the universe with Hell, Earth, Purgatory, and Heaven. In the hell portion it depicts Satan eating a body. I stared at that throughout the whole Mass. Then we went for dinner. I shared Chianti Classico wine with some people and it was very good. We had tiramisu for dessert and it was delicous! After that we got somemore gelato. I had ciocolato extranoir, caffe, and vagnilia. The vanilla was delicous; It had real vanilla bean in it! After that we walked around Florence. We saw Cellini's Perseus. I again freaked out. It is such an amazing piece. It is such an amazing piece. We saw the Arno River and the city scape around it is so beautiful. On a less attractive note we also saw a river rat. When we went back to the hotel I turned on the shower and it sprayed all over me and the bathroom. I opened the door and Kelly, Jocelyn, and Rachel burst out laughing. Tomorrow we are going to the Academia and the Uffizi. I will probably faint at the sight of one of he works of art. Everything here is so amazing!

June 21, 2009
Grand Hotel Mediterraneo
Florence, Italy

YAY Accademia! It was a long walk but definatly worth it. We saw a Plaster version of the Rape of the Sabines and some Medival/ Early Renisannse art. I also saw a copy of Titian's Assumption. Then We moved on to the room with the Bound slaves a Pieta and the David. David is such an amazing piece. You could see his veins and his muscles. He is gorgeous. Michelangelo was one of the only sculptors who didn't make a plaster mold first. It is such an amazing piece. After the Accademia we went to lunch and I had some spaggetti and gelato. I had Cioccolato, Caffe, and Creme Caramel. It was delicious. Then Maddie, Savannah and I rode a Merry-Go-Round at the Piazza della Repubblica. I also neglected to mention that we went to the Piazza della Signoria again and saw Cellini's Perseus and the original Rape of the Sabine. Women after a while we went to the Uffizi which was incredible. We saw Giotto, Botticelli's Allegory of Spring and Birth of Venus, The Portinari Alterpiece, (which was a lot bigger than I expected it to be) Leonardo's Annunciation, Baptism of Christ, Raphael's Leo X with two Cardnals and Julius II, Titian's Venus of Urbano, and Parmigianino's Madonna with the Long Neck. Then we went to the the first floor and saw Gentileschi's Judith slaying Holofernes, and Caravaggio's Bacchus, Abraham and Issac, and Medusa. I absolutly LOVE Caravaggio. There was a Caravaggesque painting which had very interesting lighting; it looked like there was a candle below the painting. After dinner some of us went to Grom gelateria again. The vanilla is so delicious. Tomorrow we go home and I really don't want to. I want everyone I care about to come here. Florence is probably my favorite city. This was an amazing trip!

Mike is coming to my open house for about an hour. I don't know how that will go.
I am excited for my open house but I am worried there will be like 5 people here.
I had a really weird dream last night that aclark was running around trying to staple everyone because he thought it would be cool for a movie. I was the only one who he hit in the face. It was a really annoying dream.

Last Day of School kinda

I got pulled over last night at 2 am for turning into the wrong lane on University. The police man asked me for my proof of insurance and I handed him my registration. Then I finally found my insurance and it was expired. Finally I found the right document (I just had a little chuckle about the word document) and handed to him. Luckily classical music was playing on my iPod and not Bananaphone or Freedom of Speech. When he went back to his car to check something or whatever I put it on only the classical music cause I did not want to have to deal with something awkward. I felt like a fool.

Today was the last day of school. I REALLY loved the doughnuts in Volk's class. It was kind of sad. It didn't hit me until last night that I possibly could never see some of the people from school again. (Speaking of last night, I have been craving all of that food we had ALL day.) It was also sad that I had my last school cookie. I did use up all the money in my account though. =D

My foot is asleep.

I know my mom hasn't been watering the plants! So I went out to do that and a bee got in. I captured it in a water bottle and took it outside. I hope it appreciates that.

I am excited for my open house but I don't know what food to serve.

NO MORE HOMEWORK! NO MORE BOOKS! NO MORE TEACHERS' DIRTY LOOKS!

Dear Dogfarts,

The coding in your layout is kind of faulty in the comments section.
I tried to fix it, but I was unable to.
I think you should get a new layout so we can comment on your posts!

Love,
