It's been a long time since I've written anything. I guess I'm one of those irresponsible webloggers who never updates.
I went to a Halloween party at Mines last Saturday. I hung out with Eric, Libby, Erin, Eve, Ramrod (I have no idea what his actual name is - Ramirez?), and Libby's friend Karin. It's been a long time since I've talked with them. I think I had a good conversation with Erin. I've missed Eric, especially. It was nice, even though I was forced to awkwardly mingle.
Life is busy and seemingly uneventful. I roleplay and go to SFFU every Saturday. On Fridays after Algorithms I've been getting some sort of fast food with Kenneth and Jude and then going to pick up Daniel for our text-rpg meeting.
There are nice people in my classes: Chris and Justin from Japanese are alright people, and Tasha is nice but has a bit of Freshman syndrome (but not nearly as bad as some people I know); Sylvia and Tom from Japanese Lit seem to be nice, too.
I'm making a video for a class project with Chris and Justin. The topic is "friendship." I have no idea what we're doing, but it's happening in a week. Chris is from Berthed, and comments on the dinkiness of his hometown. As was revealed to us in class on Friday, he once shattered his kneecap while skiing. He also owns the ORIGINAL Battle Star Galactica. Justin and himself often quote rejected, in Japanese.
Chris: "Boku wa banana da!" (I am a banana!)
Justin: "Boku no supuun wa taihen ookisugimasu!" (My spoon is too big!)
It should be noted that this Chris, and Grenard Chris, are not the same. Grenard Chris is currently in Japan.
Tasha lent me her USB so I could get a nice Japanese font. She likes Macs. She often crochets hats in class. Makes me think of the SciFi kiddoes. Oh, and she quotes Star Trek.
Sylvia used to be a computer science major and now has no marketable skills, as she dropped computer science for Japanese. Hooray. She's apparently in Gabbie's geography class. I didn't even know Gabbie was in geography. But whatever. I've been to Sylvia's apartment once. She has 2 advent children posters, an FF8 poster, 3 FFX-2 posters, and a Xenogears poster. She also has a dove.
Tom is in the other section of JPNS 3110. He hates cats, apparently, loves Gitaroo Man, drinks Mountain Dew, and somehow found my blog. I don't know if he checks it though. I have evasive tactics of not posting anything for months. I've been too lazy to change the layout, but his website, full of javascript leetness, is pushing me uneasily towards doing so.
I still hang out with Cam, and Jude, and Spencer, and Daniel (obviously).
There's of course Jesse, who roleplays with us on Saturdays. He's the only one left from the original group last year (which consisted of Jesse, his roommate James, their friend Matt, and Daniel).
Kenneth is a freshman who 1) is in my algorithms class, 2) goes to SciFi club, and 3) has started roleplaying with us. He's nice. The more he talks about his family, though, the weirder they seem. His 6-year old brother, adopted from Korea, is "a horny little bastard."
Stephen, Sophia's... err... still boyfriend? Something. That whole thing's weird, apparently. Anyway. He's a Chemical Engineer. I see him around the Engineering Lobby all the time, but he's always working on hideous-sounding homework. He's currently taking the applied math version of Linear Algebra. He was asking me a question about something the other day... and I realized I've already forgotten everything. And apparently there are more proofs involved in applied linear algebra than the pure math version. Which seems backwards to me. Anyway, he's cool. He also roleplays with us on Saturdays. (He's been the crusty, old, streetwise cop, and the friendly, sociable, information-relaying were-raven.) He comes to SciFi, and, he was the one who told Daniel his phone number. Daniel's phone number. As in, Stephen knows Daniel's phone number better than Daniel does. Makes sense. (Since Sophia used to live there.) Also, though I forget it, he knows the house, area, bus routes, etc. very well.
Cam's been roleplaying with us too, lately. He won't be able to play with us next week (because he's getting scuba certification at Hole-in-the-Ground, New Mexico) but now that he has a 9-5 job, he has weekends open. It's really fun.
In completely unrelated news, I don't think there's a recycle bin near my apartment to dump things into. Which sucks, because I have a ton of cans to recycle.
