I wish October 24 was here

So I got news that there are tryouts for two Major League Roller Hockey teams on the 24th of October, albeit at the minor level at that, and no contact. Still, I'm pretty pumped up to at least get the opportunity to try out for these two teams (Virginia Wings and DC FiliBusters). I mean, it's not every day that I get to try out to be a professional, especially at the tender age of 17. Stay tuned for it, cause hopefully (knock on wood) I make it. Thanks for any and all support, I'm stoked for this!

The Girlfriend =)

So today was the second time that I'd been over to Alexis' house, my very amazing and very beautiful girlfriend, and I just have to say, it was soooooooooo much fun. I went to her house over to Columbus Day holliday, but this time was even better. We played Wii for the first half, which was the first time I'd played one, and we had a lot of shenanigans happen. Namely, me tickling her when it was her turn, her scoring on herself in air hockey, her beating the crap out of me in cow riding (she's an expert at that, from what I've inferred), and us tying in billiards...only for me to lose from my accumulated "fouls". Oh man that was a blast! And for the second part, we were watching Star Wars: A New Hope. While doing so, along with Monday's movie/cuddling shenanigans, we were cuddling up and were intertwined, something I really enjoyed (=]). And thus, I ended up leaning over and kissing her, leading to at least a minute or two of solid kissing time. IN conclusion, it was a VERY fun time today!

Making a new female accquaintance

So this follows up (kinda) to my updating you on what's happened since the last time I really blogged. Alrighty, so last night, I was driving out to Borders in the rain (horrible conditions, at night, pouring down rain, although I love it when it rains), when I got a text from a number I didn't recognize. It was a 571 area code number, so I knew it was somebody in the area. Well lo and behold, it was the (cute) bassoonist whom I had complimented earlier in the week. Turns out that she had requested- (I'm not gonna lie, it was kinda cute, awkward, and awesome at the same time) from one of my fellow trombone section leaders- my number so she could say thanks. Well, it led to a huge text marathon that consequently ended up making my night. Some things that I learned was that in addition to being pretty cute (it's that redhead charm of hers) that she kinda was somewhat flirting with me, until I told her that I have a very amazing girlfriend of my own. It was all good since she has a very cool personality and seems like a nice girl. Personally, I think it was nice of her to contact me back via text to say thanks and to kind of introduce herself. Now, what does this have to do with me potentially breaking the spell of not going to homecoming throughout my high school years? Well today she said that she was going homecoming dress shopping, and that she did pick out a dress. And that she'd be open to me asking her to homecoming. So yeah, I've had a pretty nice weekend so far.

Oh yeah, I just remembered this dream I had a while ago...

So like the caption above said, I felt like I needed to share a dream of mine that I had recently. If anybody out there has read my blog, you know that I had one bizarre dream combining the latest Harry Potter movie and UNC-Greensboro's campus. Well, this one is about zombies, those lovable buggers that just love nothing more than to eat your brain(s). So um I don't really recall the details about said dream, but evidently I was running away with a bunch of other people in a group from zombies taking over this one unnamed, unspecified town. And that evidently there was this one girl that had an attraction to me. And that there was a good amount of violence involved. And that I evidently learned that hiding prone under one huge, white bedsheet with the afformentioned group of fleeing survivors in a very largely infested zombie population equals 110% invisibility. Oh and, did I mention that said girl wanted to hold my hand and make out with me under this bedsheet.....and that she was suspected of beginning to turn into a zombie...and I kinda was saying "hell no, I know you're starting to zombify me and I don't want that to happen. Well, all of this did happen in the dream. And for those of you that are curious to know what happened after this...WELL TOO BAD CAUSE I WOKE UP CAUSE I HAD TO GO TO SCHOOL.

Some updated thoughts since my last posts

Alright, so this is catch up time. First of all, I recently celebrated a very happy one month (August 16th is the anniversary) with my lovely and amazing girlfriend Alex =)))). Even though I recently got the really bad news that her mom nixed her coming down to homecoming =((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((, I still love her no matter what. And on the topic of homecoming, since she really was the only reason why I was planning to go, I'm kinda planning not to go, although I may actually change my mind on that (more to come on that, actually). So really, this was my update since last time.

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.
