Homecoming Plans 09

This is a bit of semi-old news, but after the UNCG music camp (wow I'm a band kid) I basically met this very awesome girl. And she is very good looking and very cool. Long story short, she said that she's planning to come down for my homecoming this upcoming year. Meaning, she's driving up all the way from the Greensboro area of North Carolina to come up for the homecoming weekend. And I'm not gonna lie, that's pretty beast. I'm looking forward to homecoming this year!

Weird Harry Potter/UNCG Dream I had last night

So basically, last night I had a very interesting/amazingly weird dream. It involved me as a Harry Potter type figure being chased by the Death Eaters, who evidently had killed all of my immediate family, around the campus of UNC-Greensboro. Yeah, it was weird. And evidently in the dream I had three other unnamed friends, one in the vein of Ron and another guy friend and a girl friend in the vein of Hermione. So basically, for those of you that have been on campus, most of this took place in the Caf (the cafeteria fyi) and in a new, constructed (though not yet finished) dorm (which looked like it was about 80% finished btw, there was a ton of concrete if I remember-kind of like Lake Braddock pre-finished renovation). And defying all sense of logic, I had an Invisibility Cloak. And the Death Eaters had wands and somehow me and all of my friends did not. Talk about being screwed for survival. So really, to cap this recap of a very silly dream off, the last two things I remember is a) hearing in the dream about how my family basically got massacred and b) thinking about how the heck I'd be getting home without a car and driving all the way back home to good old Virginia.

When overseas shipping really gets aggravating

So it's now been two weeks and a day, and the Team Germany jersey that I bought off their official website still hasn't come. Yeah, I know their work days/hours are a lot shorter than ours and the jersey would have to go through customs. Still, it should not take this long. Though I think it would have something to do with the French language that I had to interpret through the site that actually had me buy it (weird, no?). Oh well, I can wait a week longer...hopefully.

SAT part deux

Yeah so, the other day I got my SAT results. And it blew. Seriously, how the heck did I do worse the second time around? I mean, I only improved total by 20 points, and that was for the Writing portion, which doesn't really count at all for colleges! My English comprehension even went down, and it's a semi-strong point for me! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!! This really is an FML moment, cause I'm now gonna be working on preparing for a third SAT come October.


But on a related note, congrats to Eve Chase for making it to TJ. She really deserves it.

Boooooooooooooooooooooored

Yeah, so I'm at home doing pretty much nothing. Please call me, anybody, and just chill with me. Really, there's only so much I can take of boredom.

Fourth Day of Reunion

So at this point, it was just me, my bro, and my cousins who coincidentally lived in the house that my bro and I were so graciously living in. And I know this is going to throw people off, but we actually didn't play Rock Band to start the day. I was on the internet doing my stuff while my bro was somewhere doing something and my cousin Richie was playing WoW. Then we got down to business- Rock Band. A new band was born, Ghettow (note the strategic placement of the 'w' at the end). After that, we went to lunch to one amazingly pathetic Chinese buffet place. I mean, the place obviously had spent tons of money on decor, the food, not so much. I mean, my Sprite tasted like freaking Club Soda. So yeah, definitely a waste of time and money. After this pathetic excuse for lunch, my mom, my dad, my bro, and I put in another two hours at my grandparents' house. I feel so relieved and happy that we did so much work. But now, I'm leaving tomorrow to drive all the way, in one sitting, back to the grand ol' commonwealth of Virginia.

Third Day of Family Reunion

So again, after waking up to a massive Rock Band hangover, surrounded by empty soda and beer cans, we woke up. This would be even more awesome than I just described it. Another day of just chilling with the awesome cousins from the epic states of Colorado and Illinois awaited. And really, that just meant that we played Rock Band, and for a change of pace, Super Smash Bros Brawl and Kirby Air Ride and some people soloed in Guitar Hero 3. But seriously folks, we had the family pictures taken, which were fun to do; or at least more fun and yelling and schemes than are normally associated with family reunion photos. Not long after this, my dad and I went to my grandparents' house to do yard work. We ended up doing three hours of work, which was back breaking in the heat and with those dang skeeters. However, I felt good that I got to help out my grandparents, whom I probably won't be seeing much of either; ditto, cause I don't know many people who do yard work on Summer trips, much less family reunions. And as the last few posts have went, we ended the night with Rock Band, albeit with some cousins gone.
