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.

Crusin'
What a beautiful day! I have done absoutely nothing today...wait I take that back. I went to class. That has to count for something because it was a long ass day. But then I went outside to the party in the courtyard instead of swimming, man I am doing well. But I will be up at 5:30 in the morning to go practice, I assure you that. And I will be at dryland at 4:00. But I don't want to go to speech...hummm. I will have to think about that. Yay for relaxing weeks. The next four weeks will be hard, but then we're done! Well nothing else too exciting going on here, I am excited for the weekend! I will come back when I have something worthwhile to say.

And we're off
O man. I am dead. Running sprints and then stairs do it to me everytime. Well I haven't written in a while so I decided to write about my super exciting life.
Cricket Cricket...
Just kidding. Well all I can say is what a weekend. A complete 180 from last Friday where I went to a pretty relaxing concert and then on Saturday to loveland for my brothers' swim meet and then dance revolution party with Lauren in the room, and laying out in the sun on Sunday. Don't get me wrong, it's really nice to have a relaxing weekend every once and a while, but I think it was well time for one of those super crazy, off the wall, I can't really remember what went on weekends.
Sadly though, my sober streak is over. But it was well worth it and I was told today that we only have four more weekends here. FOUR! That's only eight more going out nights. So sad because then comes summer and the wrath of my mother will premit me from going out whenever I want...
Ok! So overview of the crazyness in Fort FUN. Friday night I really had no clue what I was going to do, all I knew that Elise was coming...and the rest of the night was a mystery. So we played everything by ear. We started off by having a quick dance party in the room, you know, just to get warmed up for the rest of the night. And then went to Hu Hot's Mongolian grill. It was delicious as well as entertaining. We got to watch them cook our food from a giant grill, so it was a new experience. So after a nice two hours of girl talk (Lauren, Elise, Katie and I) we headed back...worked a little magic (or should I say Elise did), got ready blah blah blah (you can fill in the blanks) and then headed off to a party. That was really fun because I had been there before so I knew a lot of the kids, and we brought a ton of people. That's what all those pictures are from. I even got a fly workout in. After that party we came back here and I made friends with a nice Columbian boy who spoke about three words of English. We tried talking for about an hour--me with my fragmented/drunken Spanish and him with his three words, and we got along quite well. I couldn't tell you I have the slightest clue why he was in Corbett hall in Ft. Collins Colorado or even what his name is in English...or in Spanish for that matter, but he was very nice. And that's all that matters.
So after that I went to bed. Saturday we woke up, mid-day of course and Ash, Kristin, Elise and I went to Chipolte and then Starbucks. Let's just have a moment of silence for the best lunch ever......................mmmmmmmmmm.
Then Elise left and I had just enough time to shower before Katie came over and not too long afterwards Ryan got here. Once again we had no clue what we were going to do so we pretty much played everything by ear. I don't really know what we did for the first half of the night, we ate and hung out...ventured to another dorm, visited everyone I knew (three people), and then came back here and I met Ryan's friends (yes, ironic he has more friends that go to my school than me...) and we hung out in my room, Kristin came over and blah blah blah (once again, fill in the blanks) and then headed off to a party where Kristin and I line danced for a while, then to an empty apartment with (and I shit you not) a role of toliet paper, four chairs, three beers, a George Foreman, 1 hamburger patty and a light fixture. In the entire apartment. So what do you do with six people and a lot of empty space?
WREASTLING MATCH!
I'm not quite sure how it started or when it ended but all I know is that I am getting damn good. We even had tag teams. That's how cool we are. Somewhere in there I rested by doing wall sits (??). Then we left and I was so tired. I almost fell asleep in the car on the way back. We got back here and before I could pass out in Kristin's bed, I came home, brushed my pearly whites and fell asleep.
So that was a fun night, the guys we hung out with were pretty cool, and I have no doubt I will be seeing them again.
Good times in the neighborhood. So Sunday Ryan stayed for a while since it was freaking snowing. We just hung out, I was pretty boring, I'm not gonna lie. Sunday is probably my most boring day of the week, so I usually try to stay away from most human contact except my roommate. After he left I watched some movies on TV, talked on the phone and avoided all homework until 11:00 when I filled out my speech critique sheet and decided I had spent enough time on homework.
Well that was my crazy weekend, it was a lot of fun. I got to hang out with everyone that I wanted to and even got to see some of my CU buddies. And then there was school today and I did not want to go at all. But one of our classes was cancelled and our lab was short, and speech was just listening to...speeches! So it wasn't bad at all. Until hell, when we had to run. So there's my life. It was semi-exciting, and this week should be pretty laid back, so that will be nice.
That's all I have for now, hopefully I can get some more pictures on here soon, but until then long live salami!
O yes I will leave off with some quotes from last week/end...
"#1 sign not to approach a girl: guy next to her is playing with a knife" Me & KC
"And we almost got died" Kristin, English Major
O yes and two quotes from an excerise we did in class
"You're so ugly I forgot how to spell" -Excerise on overhead
"The wind is a bitch and I don't like horses" -Me
And that is all.

Saving face
It's been a while, that's only because school is killing me. I am having trouble keeping up with everything so on this morn of Wednesday April 6th I have decided I don't want to do any more work until tonight. I know, it's a big deal. I just feel like I am in third grade and I want my mom to do everything for me. I'm so burned out. One more month. I can do it.
I have some bad news. My face is falling off and my hair is falling out. And soon I will be a faceless hairless blob walking around. That's a scary image. So I guess I should be grateful that I have a face right now. We all should.
Practice was pretty fun and easy this morning, so I guess that can be the good news.
Well that's pretty much all that's going on right now. Wow, that's pretty sad. O yeah, and still going sober... I wonder how long it will last, it's pretty nice. One month down, maybe I can make it two.
I can't wait until summer...I can't stop thinking about it. And I scheduled for next year, I have four 50 min classes on MWF and one hour and 15 on TR. We'll see how that goes. Well I am going to try to save the parts of my face that haven't fallen off. Oh yeah and I need to thank Chris for be so kind to let me use his picts to post on my blog. Thank you Chris for being so generous, I never knew you were so givng. Ok well time to get ready for class, more picts to come in the future.

That spec on the wall
Annoyed. Annoyed and bored. Those are my two main feelings right now. Not to mention that I am hungry and tired and overall not in a very good mood. It kinda takes a lot for me to be in a bad mood... ah who am I kidding, it doesn't, a least not any more. I would say I'm not usually in a BAD mood, but I always feel like something isn't here. Anyway, I just would like to express my annoyedness. And thanks to one person in particular, they just increased my annoyance level. Thanks a lot d bag. But mainly it's just a lot of little things that compile that add up to my DEMISE! No, just kidding. Well it's Easter weekend and I am at home having a great time...my rabbit and I just hanging out. Hopefully the cousins are coming soon, I'm really excited to see them.
Excitement aside I have a very serious issue I need to put down in words. I have been sober for a very long time. Now, I don't know how I feel about this issue, I mean it's been so long at this point I don't even want to comsume those alcoholic beverages that I once adored any longer. I know, it's somewhat numbing to read this. It almost feels that way to write it, yet I just don't feel the urge anymore. I mean I should just quit while I'm ahead... wait that made little or no sense whatsoever. What I was getting at is that I don't need to drink for a good time. I create my own. Well it feels good to get that issue off my chest and I hope that I can continue my unintoxicated life with ease and pleasure.
But I do have a boring situation going on right now. And I will tell you what it is. My life. It's just a minor detail, but something I should be a little concerned with anyway. I think that I should take action, yet I'm not quite sure how, you see there are a couple things that tend to get in the way. I usually refer to them as school and swimming but they might as well be refered to as HELL and DEATH. Or the firey pit of doom and torture. Whatever they are called they are kind of getting in the way of what I want to be doing with my life. What do I want to be doing you might ask? Well I don't want to go to school and I'm not so much in the mood to swim. So anything but that and I would be happy.
Well my butt hurts from this chair...so I'm going to go eat...or do something productive such as that. I will probably be back when my bordem comes back full blast again. Bye.

Ok, well aside from having a not-very-functional body clock right now, that is what I decided to title this poem. So here goes.
Cracks creep up the wall
Seeping through the
Powdery Maroon
As the stale air clings
To the shadow
That creeps upon
Twlight
Dripping through
Thick fog and
Smeering crystal light
Over the ebony that
Cradles the land
Fading into an
Ancient mystery as
Time waits
Yet the echo of
Rhythmic clocks tick
And memories engulf
The darkness
Tragic tears spill
Reflecting a glimmer of hope
That reverberates off the
Mirrored walls
And clings like fresh mist
Rolling the beads of dew
Into the depth that
Morphs
Melts
Hardens into stone
And the ruby soul
Flicks against the ivory
Secronizing with harmony
Within the machine
That creates the spec
Of existance
Who dances to the bitter
Flavor
By the dimmness of the
White light as the
Giant thumb
Is tapping
Tapping
To the music
Of the earth
The planets
As he writes a
Synphony
For the gripless
galaxy
Yeah that was kinda long. Sorry. Also spell checker isn't working, so my spelling is horrible. Welp I have to go to class again...and leave my pathetic attempt at poem writing. And yes, that was supposed to represent something again, it's not that hard to see. Ah my freaking computer is being dumb. CRAP. Well laters!

Steaming
I shouldn't have written that list because high speed internet isn't as good as everyone may think. Especially when you spend SEVEN HOURS at the computer place trying to get ride of stupid viruses and spy wear. I wanted to die. Yesterday was the longest day of my life. I will breify show my schedule:
5:30 am WAKE UP
6-7:30 SWIMMING
7:30-9:00 come back, shower do some last min hw, breakfast
9-2 CLASS
2-3 lunch
3:30-10:30 computer place
10:30-11:30 trying to get spy bot to run on my freaking computer
AND THEN BED. Where I woke up every 20 mins because I was parnoid about my computer. Ah what a day. And now I have come back from practice on day 3 of this long week and I just would like to pull out a few poems. One of them was written in class for our assignment (so if it seems weird just disreguard) and the other one was written in the seven hours I was sitting doing nothing. I decided to do something and it took me all of twenty minutes and then, once again I had nothing to do.
Aburn grains sink into my feet
Salty spray of the deep sea
No buildings, just a house
Sitting on top of a dream
But there is a nightmare
He fell through the wall
Mysical powers
Given to the man at the circus
Could he help my friend?
Or would he be able to
Show me the math
What is the equation for swimming
Too far?
Trouble brews from
Cheating
But not from the old smell
From our past
As infatuation takes over
But then
I cussed those boys out
Anger
Doesn't quite describe
Naive
Maybe
There weren't any fish
But we fished anyway
In the icy banks
Of the river where
I almost just flowed
Away
With the glistening heart
Of the current
Then there was the
Three years
In a row
Where I liked him
Where is he now?
I'm not sure bcause
I was laughing too hard
About that
Jumping snail
That she just couldn't do
Off the diving board.
So there it is, my childhood...sorta. I have another one, so I will come back and post that but I have to get ready for a little thing we call class. Plant life here I come! Bye.

Back in the swamp...
Walking home from class in the bitter cold wind storm Kristin and I started talking about the things we like about being back at school and the things we don't like. So I decided I was going to make a list... so here it goes.
What I like about being back in Fort Fun:
1. High speed internet
2. Better water pressure
3. The rec center is near...
4. They filled the lake, it looks a lot nicer
5. A good view of the mountians
6. My pillow here is more comfortable
7. I don't have a cerfew
8. My friends are all in one place
9. Hot boys all around (well not ALL around...but around)
10. Um... I am having a hard time...let's move on
Reasons why I don't like being here:
1. SCHOOL
2. The damn wind
3. I miss my friends and family back home
4. Did I mention school already? And homework (that I never do)
5. It's hard to shave in the showers here
6. Swim practice
7. I am sick of dorm food
8. Walking to class
9. Waiting for the bathroom (even though that never happens, it is now)
10. I miss my dogs
11. I don't have a car
Ok already that's enough. Main point is that I hate school. And I am failing out. So I should get going on that homework thing everyone is always talking about. I think I'm going to try it out even though I know I will hate it. Also I still haven't registered my bike and I meant to do that the first day of school...so I will go do that later too. Because today is my last day of doing absoutely NOTHING! Because practice starts tomorrow. O no.
OK well here I go to do something productive, so see ya lata!

Wishing it wasn't over
Well it's over. I am so depressed. I can't believe how fast time flies when you're having fun. So there was spring break, but luckily we have less than two months before school is out. Thank the Lord. But they are going to be a long, stressful two months. With spring training starting up and the papers, speeches, tests and projects will be loaded on. BOO.
So yeah the break was really nice. The first weekend I went to starbucks with Chris right when I got back and then went to Boulder for a fun Saturday night. All I can say is HOT DAMN. And why did I dance on the table? WHY? I have a little battle wound from walking home in the snow. In a skirt...and flip flops. It was a Cancun party OK?! Drop it. But it was fun and it was really good to see Elise and Jer and party with them. Sunday we had a surprise party for my grandma's 80th, and let's just say she was pretty surprised. She looked like she was about to have a heart attack, that would have been bad. But it was really good too, it was nice to see the cousins and aunts and uncles...and second cousins...and their kid's kids...
Anyway, that was the day I wanted to go up to Vail to visit Jim since I haven't seen him since August, but the parental units strongly advised against it. So instead I hung out with people, Kristin and I watched the longest movie ever--Troy. At least Brad Pitt looked smoldering sexy and it was the best comedy of the year haha. Went to meet people for lunch one day (Lauren S, Jeremy, my brothers and then Lyle for starbucks) so it was nice to see them. I went to Jenn's with Kristin and went hot tubbing and watched a movie, ran stairs with Lauren the next day (hurts the lungs), played in the sandbox with my dogs and worked out in my room one day.
Thursday I went to Vail with Nathan and Chris, which was really fun. We got to see Jim and we went to dinner with him and rode the gondoloa up to the top of the mountian and walked around up there. We were really goofy the whole night, I don't know what the deal was. But it was a lot of fun. The next day we went skiing at Copper, I had to ski alone. I know, so sad. Kristin and I kept just missing each other. O, but the day started out really bad because I am an idiot and I forgot my boots at Jim's in Vail, so we ended up driving over Vail pass six different times that day. I felt really bad and Nathan was pretty pissed to say the least. So after skiing we went back to Jim's and later Lyle and Susan came and we went to dinner and then headed back home. We had a nice long talk on the way home, I really miss those guys and it was nice to be with them. And it was refreshing to see Jimmy, he was reassurring as always and he made me feel better about things. It was just nice to be with him and I hope he comes back this summer, because his coaching is what kept me going. Needless to say I miss him tons too.
Saturday was another extravaganza in itself because Jen's boyfriend missed his flight because the stupid shuttle was late and we all ended up going to lunch, which was good. Before that though Lauren and I drove circles around the airport for more than an hour. But man do I know the airport well now! So he got a flight later and we ate at Lauren's, went to Andy's for a while and came back to my house and just drove around and then they left and that my friends, was my spring break. Earlier today Ashley came to say hi/bye so I was really excited I got to see her for a minute.
O yeah, and the movie Robots--no good. My brothers and I went to see it and it wasn't really worth it. O man am I tired. And I get to do homework now! YES! My favorite. One week and then I am going home again for Easter, and I'm excited because the family will all be here so it should be fun. Plus I have a shopping date with my mom. But I will have picutures when I finish my roll, I didn't do a very good job with taking them so it will be a little bit. K well I am going to go do homework but I wish we had another week for break. I don't wanna......o no 6 am practice. What a great way to start the week with! Ugg. Ok I will be back. Adios.
