Bombadil

Sometimes my life falls together.
Today:
Felt sick.
Didn't go to class.
Teacher also feels sick.
I wake up to an email saying class was cancelled.
Found the band bombadil.
Listened to it.
Pleased.
The end.
More tomorrow.
Listen to bombadil, specifically Johnny.
Here's Jellybean Wine by Bombadil.

Beanery

Well I was back at the Beanery with some peeps and saw the moustached man that is always there it seems again.

It made me remember how many kids on the University of Oregon campus have mustaches.

I have yet to form my opinion.

I'm also sick. Of being sick. I say some ridiculous things.

It looks like Kath$ta will be following my blog. Guess that means I should post stuff. More tomorrow.

Well April

The fourth month of the year and I've come to the realization that my goals are not coming to fruition. Although that is typical of most New Year resolutions, not this year. No sir. I will not throw in the towel yet. This blog will now partially become my goal journal. Just so you know.

first

Spring break has come at last. I'm up in Forest Grove, spent the afternoon taking pictures of ducks (I know, right?) and spent the evening kicking it with my brother and sister-in-law. It's been a whirlwind of a week as far as my Spring Breaks go. Usually I'm stuck in Corvallis working, while my roommates are paragliding over the ocean in Jamaica, or something like that. I guess spending an afternoon stalking certain water foul isn't the most exciting thing I've done, but it was extremely satisfying for some reason.

I also spent time with Google Translate and some Iranan blogs.  A friend of mine had once told me to get to know a country, read it's blogs. After hearing about Iran again in the news, I realized I knew absolutely nothing about the country. So I checked out some blogs. Some were pretty anti-establishment such as The Rotten Gods, and some were educational, The Land of Persia, and some were pretty normal Adventures of Mr. Behi (these are ones I found in English). Overall, I saw a country with certainly more pressing issues than ours, but in general, people lived a similar life. In one blog, a college student was venting his frustration that he hadn't got his essay's done yet. I can relate.
