T1i. That's what I am going to get. Went to a shop and felt the Nikon and the Canon- Nikon lost the feel test. Nikon lost the lens test. Canon T1i rebel- you will soon be put into the hands of another rebel.
I also want a Nikon D5000- but feel like buying one would be rewarding my shitty grades. Maybe I will wait until at least next week (when I take my metabolic test and get an amazingly smart grade). Booyah
I desperately want to go to Europe- I just received an email about an after grad trip there with VT students for 25 days. Why am I not jumping all over it? Hmm.. Because it's $3864. But man would that be a sweet time. Ideally, I could get a sweet ass DSLR and take amazing pictures. Maybe by then I will know if I get into grad-school and can use some money. Once in a life-time trip? Possibly.
Residence Life should be smart. I should be in shape. I shall start off with that observation.
During training we were given pasta- breadsticks- salads- aaaand sodas. Directly after the dinner all the RAs were asked to compete against each other in teams. Hmmmmmm...not too smart to serve heavy meals to kids who most likely sat on their asses all summer and watched their jelly-rolls ooze over their sweat pants. I am proudly one of those aforementioned people. Soooo, during my part of the competition, which was the sprinting challenge, I fell. My legs stopped moving and my body kept going and I ate it in front of 100 or more people. I then proceeded to go down to the mens locker room and puke in the toilet. Hahaha. How out of shape am I? The answer is ridiculously out of shape. It's sad.
Oh my G. It has been 17 months since I have dated anyone. About 20 since it was actually a good date. Don't you think thats kind of a long time to be single? I do. Someone had a hold on me that didn't go away for a long time- This IS the year I get another serious girlfriend. Mark my words blogger...even though thats what you literally do. So kudos blogger for doing what you do best- which of course is marking my words.
I was having a hard tome coming up with some meaningful words about this couple- not that finding good things to say about them is difficult, it's just more of a testament to my lack of experience. I did get some suggestions from you all sitting at the tables that I should pound a few drinks down and speak. I can guarantee you that speech would be littered with hugs and 'i love yous' and my clothes would be stained red from all the wine spills. I will spare you all from that.
So, as most of you know there is a long history between the Clark's and Farley's. We all grew up together and Max has crushed on Kristy forever. Aaaand now that I am older, I realize why whenever I asked him to sleep over the first thing out of his mouth was "Is Kristy there?" And why when I said "No" somehow there was always phone trouble and we got disconnected...
Noo, but I wasn't expecting to do a speech and when Max asked me to I was honored. And I was honored to be standing right up there with him today to witness this great union. I think he has found a wonderful woman in my sister Kristy. She is smart, determined, a hard worker and a go-getter- all qualities I wish I exhibited more. I think they compliment each and drive each other and are two of the most in love young adults I have seen. I hope I have half of the love, respect, and affection these two have for each other when I am sitting at my own wedding table next to my mail order bride.
Max has been really great to me since they have been together. He is always willing to talk and give me advice. I forget that he is only one year older than me because he is so mature for his age. Look at this couple- at 23 they have a house, two dogs, two cars. Look at me, almost 22 and I still live the college dormitories with 18 year olds and spend my nights playing video games and deciding whether or not to attend class the next day. I aspire to be like them.
You're more than just a friend now Max- you're my brother. Aaaand Kristy is my sister, which makes this wedding disgusting and illegal in most states- so thank you Dominican!
Cheers guys. I love ya and know your life together will be on giant success story.
GRE! GRE! GRE! uggh the day is almost upon me. I am so tired of practicing and studying and all that jazz- Tomorrow: Test. Afterwords: Harry Pawtta. Lets hope it's a good day...
