Poetry thing

I really do not like this whole poetry thing, so i mean at least i'm trying right.


Hold it all together
Keep your mind focused
Just one more point
One bounce...Two bounces...Three
Keep your eye on the ball
Just one more point
Make a straight toss
Hit it!
Just one more point
I hope it goes in
Go right by him
Just one more point
Swing and a miss
The point was mine

Umm the poem is all about hitting an ace in tennis, i dunno i had a lack of ideas for this, be kind please.

Coming up with Titles for these blog entries is a pain

Wow....did anyone see all this snow coming!? I know it caught me off guard, I kept hearing that it was coming, but I didn't believe anyone, because they have been saying we would get a ton of snow all winter, and yet to get any snow at all. So I was skeptical to say the least, but hey I guess I was wrong. I don't really mind the snow that much, I'm pretty indifferent to it, to be completely honest. The way I see it, if it is going to be really cold, it mine as well snow so we can get some cancelled classes, so I mean I was particularly happy with the fact that my usually insanely busy Wednesday was turned into me sleeping till 2 and playing snow football with the people in my hallway. Snow football, now that is just something I am not used to yet. Living in Arizona from about 1st grade till my freshman year in high school basically meant that I am still not really accustomed to this whole snowing thing. Not that I am not open to trying new things and all, because I am not close minded or anything. My friends found out that i had never been sledding before my junior year of high school, so they dragged me out of my house to go with them. Needless to say, I went on a giant hill (well by my standards anyways) and almost got hit by a car at the bottom. So, I haven't really had the desire to go sledding again, because staying alive is something I'm pretty fond of, and yeah I think sledding again might negatively effect the whole staying alive thing. Alright, well have fun in the snow everyone, I hope everyone enjoyed the cancelled classes, because honestly, it made my week.

Friday.....again.....

Well let's see, it is once again Friday, the end of the weeks, and I guess that's a good thing and all. Umm....well...uhhh.. I had a pretty standard week, nothing out of the ordinary went down, all the usual stuff. I have however come to the conclusion, that if i was about 4 or 5 inches taller, and about 60-70 pounds heavier I would definitely be a bouncer at a bar. For two reasons, 1.) They get to decide who gets into the bar, which is an extremely important job, you know, to keep the riff raf out. 2.) They get to mark peoples hands, now I know that doesn't sound that great, but I think it's personally hilarious. I have woken up the next morning and have had the weirdest symbols on my hand. For example, when i awoke from my sleep, that felt like a coma, i sign the marking on my hand that reminded me I went to the bar the previous evening. It kinda looks like a cross between a rooster and unicorn, I'm not too sure what it's actually suppose to be, but it looks like it took some artistic talent. So, if i was the guy at the door drawing things, I think I would draw some pretty elaborate shit with that marker. Maybe put the Mona Lisa on a hand, or my own rendition of a Picasso. After about the fifth person that walks in the bar though, I would probably just start drawing penis' on every ones hand, and find it hilarious even after I'd been doing it for hours.

To go off on a different tangent, I think those shirts that show like your skeletal system on them, are completely moronic. I saw some girl trying to be really fashionable and anti-establishment with bright pink hair, and one of those shirts on, and thought...."wow she looks ridiculous", but i mean to each her own I guess, it's just not my thing I suppose

Extremely Long Week

This week just seemed to drag on for forever for me. It feels like it should be thursday of the following week by now. I think it's because how much Albany is just so dead in the winter, at least in my opinion. When it's warmer out there are so many more things to do, and it just seems like the campus is alot more bustling, as well as the rest of the city. I've found myself just sitting in my room being bored for more time than ever in the past couple days, its interesting. I did go to the movies the other day though. My roommate Matt and I went with some girls who live down the hall in our building to see "Smokin' Aces". The movie was great, it was kinda weird that one of the leading roles was played by the guy who starred in Van Wilder, just because its hard for me to picture him in a serious role after that movie. However, the highlight of my week, in terms of the media was watching the office tonight. That show is just so hilarious, Steve Carrell might be one of the funniest actors of our generation, if not the funniest. The whole show is just so awkwardly funny, every person who works in the office is just put in these weird situations every week, and its just so incredibly awkward that you just wanna look away, but at the same time you cannot help but laugh. I think I'm going to go buy my tickets to Taking back Sunday, and Underoath at the Armory tonight or soon. I am pretty excited to go to that show, I have not been to a concert in forever, not since Bamboozle last year. Which was amazing by the way. Bamboozle is alot like the Warped Tour for anyone who doesn't know, and I saw at least a dozen of my favorite bands in one day, and there was just no words to describe it, the crowds were all amazing, and everyone was just having a great time. My highlight of the trip, was getting elbowed in the head, by some monster guy. He was trying to get a free Starting line Cd or something, and he felt the need to elbow me in the head to try and get it before i did. The whole thing that really sucks about it, is the cd just kinda hit me, i didnt want it, i was just walking by that Merch Table en route to get to the Zox merch table. Zox is a Ska band from Rhode Island. I've been a fan for awhile, but anyway, the guys from Zox saw me get hit in the head by that abnormally huge emo kid. So, the lead singer of the band was chatting me up about it, and we started talking about how much I liked the band, etc. etc. One thing lead to another, and they gave me their old cd i didn't have, and i got a couple of the guys in the band to sign it. I know them autographing it doesn't make it worth much in a dollar sense, but it's a cool story to tell i suppose. But, umm yeah, I guess i kind of got off on a tangent there, I think next time I need to think this thing out before i write it.
