What did you learn in school today?

Ok, well I should be reading, but I am going to warm up my brain with a quick write in here. Well the weekend was pretty good, it went by fast, I'm glad to be back in the Fort, but I am wish I was at home. I think it's that time of the year where everyone starts to feel a little homesick. But I have two weeks and a few days before I can go home, so I'm ready for that.

I swam ok, it was a long weekend, the hotel beds were hard as rock and so was the bus floor. To be expected. It was fun though, New Mexico is pretty boring and I wouldn't want to go to that school if you paid me. It's worse than Greeley. That bad. It was fun to hang out with the girls, I don't think I really took the meet that seriously, I was just kinda going with the flow, not thinking about it too much. Which describes how I swam. Next time I need to just get out there and race, no more of this swimming to get it done shit.

Well it's been much too long since I have written any sort of list so I think it's time.

Learned remedies for October '05:

1. Don't talk on the phone for two hours the day before a big test and still think that you are going to do well

2.When the teachers assigns you reading they aren't joking about it, it's a good idea to read.

3. It's hard work being a pirate. Especially when a fairy breaks your sword and then you are defenseless.

4. It's not a good idea to have your phone when you have been indulging in too many festivities on Halloween night, because then you might call the same person not once, not twice but three times. Uhhh.

5. Sleeping on a hotel bed and on a bus floor are almost the same amount of discomfort, except the bus floor had more of an old pizza smell and the bed felt more like a big block of cement feeling.

6. Although it's assumed that everyone can do handstands, that's a false fact. Some people have trouble and do a donkey kick in the air, flailing their legs everywhere.

5. Even though pillows look soft and inviting, if they are left on the ground and people are running through your house they can be very dangerous and cause them to fall face first. Karma's a bitch. Haha.

6. Doing push-ups, handstands, the worm and arebics dancing can be extremely tiring.

7. Taboo and Margarittas is a good combo, especially when you dominate at it.

8. Coffee makes my muscles tired.

9. Swimming for two days straight after sleeping on concrete also makes my muscles tired.

10. Ice cold water being poured down your shirt is well...ice cold.

11. Drinking beer that tastes like garage floor is an experience in itself. Needless to say that we found something a little more tastful after that.

12. No matter how long you have been swimming, you can still slip on the starting block and bruise your foot.

13. Procrastination gets you no where.

14. Not having a car will start to take it's toll on your sanity after about three months.

15. Digging your bike out of a pile of leaves can prove to be quite the task.

16. It's not very funny when you think your garbage bin blew away in the wind storm of '05.

17. Believe it or not a 140 pound dog can fit through a 1 foot hole in the fence.

18. Facebook is the spawn of satan.

19. So is class.

20. Giant space heaters are known to send death rays and cause headaches as well as burn or give your skin a rash, even when you are standing a safe distance away. At least that's what I have gathered.

Ok, that's about all I have learned. I need to go read now, yay for Shakespeare. What would our lives be without him? Blissful I'm sure. I'm out for now.

Count down:
Days until UNC meet: 4
Days until the weekend: 5
Days until last home football game: 6
Days until Wyoming meet: 16
Days until i get to go home for Turkey day: 17!

That's all for now. God Bless.
