...now you know.

Blogging for English class was definitely a refreshing experience, and was a great compliment to the handwritten works that become somewhat tedious to complete. The topics were fun, and allow some interesting insight from and about classmates that we wouldn't normally get in a run of the mill English class. I always enjoyed hearing my phone's email alert tone go off late on Tuesday nights, because I always knew it was witty, insightful comments on my posts from my procrastinating classmates.

As for this particular blog, I won't be posting anything else from here on out, but don't fret: I try to maintain a more personal blog including thoughts and other observations semi similar to these, here:

(may or may not contain strong language. no promises.)

And for those wanting to keep in touch in some way or know what I'm up to musically, here's a few things:

Facebook
Twitter (yes I have one of these stupid things)
my hip hop beats
my acoustic guitar/other music project

Or you can, you know, find me at school sometime and say hi, in person. Like a normal person.



Thanks for reading, and good luck to everyone in everything.

It was a standard Friday afternoon road trip. We go on them all the time, so what made this one so great? Well...nothing really. All of the excursions my friends and I go on are pretty great in their own right, (except for that one trip to Irvine, where we...nevermind). Mainly, the car ride is the one of the premier parts of the trips, because of all of the things/people we see along the way, coupled with our absurd collective sense of humor makes for very entertaining conversation. Topics that were brought up included: Mortal Kombat, the sudden basketball amnesia of Pau Gasol in the playoffs, The Human Centipede (yeah, I know...), and the WTF-inducing film, 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The destination was Santa Barbara. The soundtrack was Nas' Illmatic.

As usual, we didn't have a game plan. In fact, I'm not even sure why we decided to go in the first place aside from the fact that we were just bored.

We ended up visiting a friend at UCSB, which then and there jumped into the top 3ish on my list of transfer destinations. After some browsing of the campus, we left to find food, and I ended up spending like $9 on a burrito which I instantly regretted because I soon found out it was basically packed with more black beans than the actual chipotle chicken it was supposed to have. I really hate black beans. My wallet does too, now.

After that fiasco, we explored some more, and eventually trekked to the beach, where we discovered someone's EXTREMELY DETAILED sand sculpture of a naked female. We knew that was our cue to leave.

Nothing was extraordinary about this trip, but it was certainly a good time.


Aside from the $9 I lost. I'm still upset about that.

PS. I'd like to publicly apologize to Darlene for promising to 'go easy' on her in Words With Friends and then proceeding to score 84 points on her in one move. Sorry, sort of.
