The Sisters Of Mercy – “This Corrosion” I’m home! We survived, and did so without any fights or cars breaking down. I’ll try to recap as best as possible, starting from the beginning. Friday, March 24 We leave Portland at about 8:15 in the morning and head for Pullman, WA. The drive goes well and [...]

nothing Songs have been imported into iTunes, iTrip has been installed on all applicable iPods, bags have been packed. Spring Break 2006 starts in four hours.

Corpse Bride DVD I just woke Daniel up – he was sleeping with his eyes open again. It’s this very weird, very creepy habit of his. He falls asleep and for whatever reason, his eyes don’t close all the way, so you can’t really tell if he’s sleeping or dead or something. The Corpse Bride [...]

Paul playing Guitar Hero A running theme this term has been for Callie, Paul, Ryan, and I to bet on our assignment grades in the classes we have together. We bet each other for lunches, so say, if Ryan wins, whoever bet him must buy him lunch. It’s pretty fun, and it puts some excitement [...]

Trivium – “Ascendancy” Last night entailed an impromptu early Valentine’s dinner at The Old Spaghetti Factory with Callie and Paul. Our hostess was ridiculously cheerful and she told us we “HAD A SEAT IN THE TROLLEY! THE DRIVER’S SEAT!” and told everyone she saw that we were having “AN EARLY VALENTINE’S DINNER! ISN’T THAT AWESOME!” [...]

Killswitch Engage – “Element Of One” Today was the photoshoot with Ryan. He has a gorgeous Canon Digital Rebel camera and a lighting kit and a black backdrop. All cool professional stuff. We took lots of photos and played Catchprase and Cranium and watched the greatest home video ever made. The scene: a church’s reenactment [...]

something on the radio I think I’m giving up on my C++ stuff. It is totally not coming together, I’ve talked to, like, eight other people in the class and none of them can get it and it’s due in a little less than 14 hours and I am NOT staying up that entire time [...]

The Doors – “Break On Through” The day started off with the playing of pool at the PSU campus. We switched teams a bunch, and it ended up that Paul won four times, me three, Callie two and Daniel one. Then we drove toward Vancouver, stopping at Target to return the overpriced tea kettle and [...]

Richard Cheese – “Rockafeller Skank” Callie came over today so we could research stuff for History of Photography, and later on, Paul came over too. Then we met Daniel at work and got pizza and came back here to eat it. Very fun. Then, Paul decided he could install my new fantastic hard drive. I [...]

nothing Last night, Daniel’s friend Tom had a bunch of people over to watch a movie called “The Hills Have Eyes.” It’s apparently a Wes Craven movie that was made around 1976, and oh my god was it great. Hilariously bad (ie. blood that looked like Tempra paint, obnoxious shrieking girls, using girl’s dead mother [...]

Weltenbrand – “The Wildmannli” Yesterday was Friday the 13th, so we went over to Callie and Paul’s to have some spaghetti and play Harry Potter Scene It! because Callie got it for Christmas. None of us had really played any of the Scene It! games before, and in my opinion the learning curve is pretty [...]

Tristania Geh, nothing too exciting has happened in the past couple of days, so I didn’t have much of anything to talk about. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather since last Friday. It was just an upset tummy, but it sucked to eat anything (just made my tummy more angry) so I was [...]

Richard Cheese – “What’s My Age Again” We put Daniel back on the train last night, so he should be getting into Portland about 10:10am-ish if the train isn’t late. I miss him already, but I’m glad he got to come up. He loved the stocking I made for him. It included the movie the [...]

Trans-Siberian Orchestra – “Carol of the Bells” Christmas vacation is always insane. Case in point: yesterday I helped bottle beer, then went to a pajama/dinner party, and then today we went shopping in Coeur d’ Alene, and our basement started flooding. The beer thing: My mom got my dad a “make your own beer” gift [...]

The Beatles – “Oh! Darling” We made lots of cookies last night. Lots of them. Here is Callie, cutting out cookies. Paul and Daniel are giggling at something. Daniel falls over. The cookies come out of the oven, just the right shade of golden brown. Callie and Paul decorate cookies together. I was apparently concentrating [...]
