Zombie walking
This is extremely entertaining. Check it out, http://glumbert.com/media/dancewhiteboy.html
Ahh, you gotta love watching people dance. Nothing better than a dance party either, keeps you young and alive. Lauren and I try to have one just about everyday. We're getting behind lately, we better pick it up.
Well today was a dumb day if you ask me. And no matter how cool people think 4/20 is, it's definately not. Not at all. It was dreary all day and I think it was fitting. For all the things this day stands for (Columbine, Hitler's birth, pot smoking...), very appropriate that this weather was rainy.
Dryland was semi painful today, nothing too bad, ten laps around the inside of Moby arena and then these weird looking lunge exercises that started to burn. But not as hard as it has been in the past.
Two more days of this week, thank the lord. I have had my fair share of school and mainly teachers. Then two weeks and finals and we're FREE! And we will not be freshman anymore. Sweet ass.
I wish I knew what I did with my time, honestly. I mean besides this. And AIM. I guess that's what I do with my time right there. And dance parties and talking to my roomie. I guess I just figured it out, but time flies when you're doing nothing. As that one quote goes "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want" or something along those lines.
Practice this morning was not very fun. And I was somewhat disappointed in myself now that I think about it because I need to get a better mental attitude about my abilities or something. For some reason I am deathly afraid of running out of energy, so I tend to save a little too much. No good, I need to change that and I am constantly battling it everyday.
My random thoughts are bouncing me all around to just about everything. I confuse myself. I was just thinking about what I am going to do this summer about swimming...humm. I really hope Jim comes back for good. That's the word on the street.
AH man I had to take a break to dance to "Outta control" 50 CENT. I really like that one. But there are only like four good songs on his newer cd. And the picts inside the cover are ridiclous. They are pretty funny, he looks like he's about to kill someone. Ha, I'm sure. No thanks for that cd. P.S. Not mine, burrowed, just incase that wasn't already said.
Well last night I got to talk to a dear friend of mine who lives in that city on the edge of the land...in Illinois otherwise known as Massachusetts. Good old Boston. Can't wait till summer so I can see him and everyone else.
Ok, I am beginning to ramble. So I am going to go, but I would just like to say that the word milk, when pronounced "correctly" is perverted. You are all sick pervs. Especially the girls I am living with next year, sickos :). K well it's about time for din din. Then maybe I will do some work, that will be a good idea... Ah, yes homework, how I love it.

Well today was another day of terrible school. I keep telling myself I can do it, but sadly I don't feel like I am going to make it. I need to start reading and studying, maybe that would help to keep me from failing out. Well I never really talked about this weekend, but it was a normal college weekend filled with parties, eating dorm food (and pancakes at tri-delt one day, mmm), sleeping in, beer, peeing on elementary schools, you know the normal stuff. It was nice, and the weather was beautiful! So needless to say I spent most of my time outside. I have no doubt that next weekend will be along the same lines as that. Except I have to do a lot more homework. Because I am a slacker, and I need to get outta here with half way decent grades.
I don't really want to talk about the day, because then I will just get mad. Actually a lot of things I start talking about just end up in a gaint string of cuss words right now. So I don't really know what to say. I would like to say that I can't wait for our house next year...but I can a little. Dinner was really good last night, got in some hit songs that I made up and some good laughs with the girls. It's been a while since we've all been together for a good chuckle. Also I like goldfish. Always have, always will. Plain and simple.
O! I know, the OAR concert was so much fun. I found my friends once I got there (I came with a girl from the team and her friend, which was good but I wanted to see everyone else) and I pretty much stayed with them the whole time. The only semi annoying thing was the DU kids that were really drunk, but besides that it was good. I even got to see my brother which was nice. And I crowd surfed and almost fell on my head, after losing my flip flop and then I got in trouble. Oops. It was worth it, but man was my foot sickity nasty ill. It was pretty black, needless to say.
Other news in the exciting life of Jessica....
Swim team banquet on Sunday, mark your calendars because I will be winning the "nice try, but you don't get anything" award. Should be pretty exciting. Oh, how I do love that team.
And of course tonight I get to go to another riviting lecture about the benefits of growing potaotes in specific climates or some shit like that. Extra credit. Two words that can make you shudder and smile at the same time. It's always nice, but it's usually a pain in the ass. Hey at least they have free food at those things. Even if it is weird looking and tastes like toothpaste and peppers.
I am going to leave with this one quote: "Laugh and win" From my ghetto t-shirt. I hope I can learn to live by this, it's nice and simple. No complications or deeper meanings. I hope we all learn to live by it.
haha laugh and win. haha

Night Games
I have a poem that I wrote...so if you don't like poetry or you don't want to read my attempt at trying to sound deep, then don't read this and come back later. Otherwise, enjoy!
"Night Games"
Immersed and perplexed
As the sun creeps along the cement floor
Players create fantasy
And seamless precision
Filters throughout the room
The sky becomes dimmed
As the mission previews
The night and graphics
Glow in the ambient light
Our own involvement was simple
To go with the gain of glee
Or of nonsense
Possession is not the question now
But who takes advantage of the darkness?
The only photographer is our own eyes
And formations perch
Within our perplexed vision
Persuading our dimmed mind
To keep going, the game cannot stop
Smooth drills are fitting in the
Sophistication
As rivaled bodies dance in the moonlight
The game begins to get faster
As the tournament develops into
The ultimate madness and utter
Pleasure
Our hopes and wishes are uttered
In the heat of the game
Never missing a beat
We’re as if in a dream
The final round is coming up fast
Excitement peaks and shadows move across the floor
The players move with ease
We move with ease
Until the final point is scored in the darkness
But we cannot see
We only feel as we slowly sink
And we blend together like illustrations
On a wet canvas
And once again it is supposed to represent something. Who knows if it works. And who ever said you can't write about something you've never done? All you have to do is be a little creative. I will come back and write about my good weekend later. Peace.
