I've been wiped out lately, I would imagine it's been from depriving myself of sleep most of last week. I set this weekend aside to recover, but it hasn't really helped. So many things have been going on lately, it's hard to function sometimes. As hectic as things were, it will only get worse in the week ahead. The week before spring break, all of my midterms and all that junk. Coffee is my best friend in the whole wide world right now. So much to be done in one week, I believe it will be very taxing on me, but I think I can get it all done. I better, if I want to improve my situation is. It's only one week, then I finally get a rest.
I really can't wait for the break. I don't have any big plans like some of my friends, but it doesn't bother me at all. A full week to do nothing but relax is just what the doctor ordered. I can catch up on my sleep and hopefully feel good again.
It's funny how much I want to sleep now, I used to be terrified of it. In the past my dreams have really messed with my head. I've been so tired lately though that I don't even dream. I sleep like a rock, if it stayed that way I could sleep all week and be fine.
I've spent the little bit of free time I have playing my guitar. I really think I'm improving, I don't know if I'm as good as I was when it was the ONLY thing that I cared about, but I think I'm getting there. There may still be a future in music for me, and it gives me hope. If the music thing didn't work out I would be ok I guess. I am still quite interested in teaching history, a guy can dream though can't he? I need something to compliment my improved playing though, I really need to get ahold of Jeni and see if she would like to do some songwriting. I have so many ideas now, I think we could do great things :)
And now regrettably I must go, my body is telling me to go sleep but there are far too man things that must be done. This wonderful little distraction has taken up too much time already. Goodbye :)

Club Dread was quite funny, I don't think I would say it's as good as super troopers. I still laughed my ass off though.
Follow the banana!
After a week of exhausting myself it's time to catch up on some much needed sleep. Later :)

Things to do today
1. econ test... eww
2. workout/nap
3. history
More important, things to do this weekend.
1. Be uber geeks with grant and the guys and play halo
2. Read more of Wolves of the Calla
3. Work on the greatest song ever, did I mention I'm modest?
4. Watch spaceballs again, the maxres crew has brought back all the fuzzy memories.
5. Go see club dread, I mean seriously it's broken lizard. They rule.
At some point I also have to do some less fun things like read every story/essay that we've gone over in english for my mid term. Right now I just wanna focus on the fun though.
Hrm... I must be out of here in the next 5 minutes, peace.
"How about I punchasize your face, for free"
"I just lost a bet... to myself"
"So you're saying you're going to set my country music award on fire?"
I think I need to see supertroopers again too.
Wee!

Thursday, February 26 @ 10:07 PM
A lot of interesting things happend today. I'd like to get into it more, but i'm a tad busy at the moment. I promise to elaborte soon though.
Blowing up big f'ing robots really helps relieve stress. I just thought I'd share.
Now I must go study

School issues appear to be cleared up. Once again I am very relieved.

Wednesday, February 25 @ 11:14 PM
Oh yeah, don't ask me what the inspiration was. I couldn't tell ya, I'd really like to know myself.
- max
@ 11:13 PM
I have finally written something that I am proud of. Well, that's not entirely true I guess, I've written pieces before that I enjoy quite a bit, I think they're pretty good, but they're all depressing. Pretty and melodic, but melancholy. Tonight I finally finished something that I've been toying around with for a while though and I must say that it may be the best thing I've ever done. It's happy... Not like retardedly happy with no point and you want to bash your freaking brains in. It is a love song, or will be when I finish the lyrics. Not a sad tale of hopeless longing... It's more like being content. I wish I was better with words... I have always had trouble putting them with my music, and now with this it may seem impossible. This is my greatest work... I will have to try very hard to come up with lyrics to do it justice.
My guitar sings.

Tuesday, February 24 @ 11:52 PM
What?!?
Confusion... A letter from usi saying they want to withdraw me from English for absences. 2 of the 3 were due to the weather! My professor excused them! She even told me that it wasn't an issue and I didn't have to worry about anything. Craziness. An annoyed max is waiting for an email again.
On the up side I got my paper in and on time. Though if this issue isn't resolved soon it won't matter.
I didn't sleep at all last night, I'd like to make up for that now. Goodbye

@ 2:34 AM
A more fun way of describing the ass kicking of the printer.
Max: it lit up!
Max: meaning I think it will work
Leah: awww yay for Max
Max: oh yes, after a long hardfought battle
Max: i kicked that printers ass
Leah: you did
Leah: did you kickbox it????
Max: no, taebo
Max: billy blanks style
Leah: hot
Leah: much better choice
Max: well yes, I lack the sasha mitchell skills for kickboxing
Leah: you dance-combo/jazzersized it to death!
Max: I doubt you know what i'm talking about
Max: but mega cool points if you do
Leah: lol ok
Max: Yes leah, because I dance so well
Max: I can jazzersize like a mofo though
Max: you have no idea
Leah: quick question...was sasha mitchell the guy on that show Step by Step, who used to be in ninja movies?
Max: oh yes
Max: but not a ninja
Max: KICKBOXER
Leah: right
Leah: lol
Max: 2/3 I don't think 4 though
Leah: heehee fair enough
Seriously going to bed now. I have to wake up in 3 and a half hours... bullcraparoni. New word!
- max
@ 2:23 AM
The paper is done.
After a long and bloody battle I have beat my new printer into submission.
I have to be up in under 4 hours. It would be a good idea to sleep now don't you think?
Thank you leah for distracting me from my work for a bit. The break was much needed and my brain has not exploded and that is good.
Everything is finally finished.
I win.

Monday, February 23 @ 8:32 AM
Holy Shit! Mothafuckin Yoda and Shit!
Birthday weekened procrastionation... playing too much kotor.
I HAVE A PAPER DUE TOMORROW AT 7:30 IN THE MORNING
Now considering we're not meeting for econ this morning and I am a ninja in the history department. Bob Dole is taking the day off to finish his paper at Barnes... and he's bringing his chair too.
And by Bob Dole I mean me. I still have the urge to rock out the third person in my blog but I figured Bobert there will help me curb it.
So much to be done, so little time.
- max
Sunday, February 22 @ 2:43 AM
You would think they would want a more interesting subject for the Max show. I'm only mildly entertaining at best.
I had a very nice time with my friends tonight, pre birthday celebration type thing. Well actually it was the birthday celebration, due to the fact that going out tomorrow night wouldn't be a good idea at all.
We stuck Lucas in a trunk!
I think that's all for now, I'm sleepy

Saturday, February 21 @ 12:40 AM
Quotes from tonight.
"I just about Mcshit myself." - Me
"You know, if there had been a girl around to protect I would have been fine." - Me
"Well, I have a nice enough rack." -Nate
"You are a total woman... and that's coming from me." -Nate
"Is that Evansville? How..." - I think both of us
I still had fun tonight though, even if I am a total wuss.
- max
@ 12:34 AM
I went on a late night drive out to boonville with nate tonight... and it was boonville. I had never been there before so it was kinda interesting I guess. While we were on the trip we passed some street called Mccool. Now if you're no a quest for adventure and coolness how can you pass that up? Well we couldn't, so we backtracked to it and headed down.. What can I say, I was thoroughly disappointed with the lack of coolness on the street. After a while it turned to a gravel road and then we were surrounded by trees. Realizing that we were on private property we figured it would be a good time to turn around. I picked a spot and began to and then I noticed a figure slumped against the tree. I don't know what it was, a body or a scarecrow or what. Well, probably a scarecrow... But who puts those up in the middle of the woods? What crows are there to scare on a trail there? And what they were scaring said crows away from? I still say it was a body, or a zombie or who knows what. Needless to saw we got the heck out of dodge.
Nother funny thing happened though, while driving on the same road we started out on we somehow managed to get back to Evansville. Don't ask me how this happened, I have no f'ing clue. I'm now under the impression that I'm the center of some low budget dark comedy/horror movie. If you guys are getting a kick out of it then it's not all in vain though.
I'm a total wuss. That is all.
- max
Friday, February 20 @ 2:41 PM
I just heard back from my English professor, we have a very very relieved Max. Time to start planning the birthday shenanigans now, although we won't be doing anything until tomorrow... And the actual day isn't until Sunday. Funny how all that works.
I need to stop referring to myself third person on here... It's silly and Bob Doleish.

Thursday, February 19 @ 11:13 PM
18 miles down and Max is wiped out. I think I've finally figured out how to get to sleep at a decent hour.
Sleepytime now :)
- max
@ 9:37 PM
My body hates me right now.
Or not, from the lats up I'm sore as hell though.
I had a rather nice excursion out to barnes today and had a pretty good talk with an old friend. Got to vent and go do my spazzy rants, it was mucho fun.
Still waiting for a reply from my english teacher... blah.
Going to do the rocking out type thing. Tata
Oh man, why did I say tata? Why am I talking about it now? Oh man, next thing ya know i'll be saying things like foofooberry. I don't even know what the hell a foofooberry is. I think i'm digging a hole now... shucks.

Yes, that is correct. I fall asleep in there every single time we meet. Heck, I don't even have the book for this class.

That is all.

@ 11:55 AM
Oh yeah, anyone have any ideas on what I should do for my birthday this weekend? I don't really feel like being decisive. There's gonna be a whole 3 people I know in town so chances are it's going to be small, which isn't a bad thing at all. Just kinda limits what can be done.
Suggest away!
- max
@ 11:53 AM
I feel suprisingly good after all of that.
Think i'm gonna take a little nap before I head out to history.
Peace.
- max
@ 8:27 AM
Now lets see what we get when we add an hour of lifting to the workout today. Well, other than a dead Max. Here's how it's gonna go though, get home from econ and change clothes. Come downstairs and stretch followed by a 10-15 minute warmup on the bike with little resistance. After I get a good sweat going I'm going to move over to the weights and do all of my sets, I'm thinking this will take around an hour and as long as I don't spend too much time in between sets I'll be fine. After that I'm hoping my lower half will already be numb because I'm going back to the bike for an hour. I'm not expecting to get 20 miles now because I'll already be somewhat spent from the lifting, 18 or so will do. If I time all of this right it should still give me an hour to recover a bit, take a shower and head to class again.
Class actually interests me today because I should find out how much I rocked on my history test. I'll feel both good and bad if I manage an A like I think I did. Why good and bad? Well, good because I'm a ninja, but bad because I've fallen asleep every single time in his class I think. There may have been one day when I made it though but it was really tough. I feel like I'm being disrespectful to my teacher, but I just can't help it. We're covering the same thing you learn every year that you take a history class and by now I know it all by heart.
I'd like to spend some time either at the library or Barnes reading Wizards and Glass, but I have to work on a paper for English. If I can get enough done I might still go out though, we'll see what happens.
If I don't get my ass in gear I'm going to be late for econ.
See ya.
- max
Tuesday, February 17 @ 10:52 PM
I dunno if it was the ride today or what but I'm wiped out. I'm going to bed now... and it's not even 11. Weird.
Today was very nice and I feel quite good, minus the whole overwhelming urge to close my eyes. Gonna take care of that now.
Night :)
- max
@ 3:05 PM
I had to cut my day of reading short because I kept falling asleep in my chair. Book 4 is good though! At least the 120ish pages I got though today. I got home in time to catch the end of this show on espn called the cheap seats. It's kinda like mstk 3000 only with old wrestling footage. Now I'm not a huge fan of tv wrestling but that stuff cracked me up.
I think I'm gonna take a nap now.
- max
@ 11:30 AM
Ok that wasn't so fun, and it took me an extra 10 minutes. I guess this shows me how out of shape I am, oh well every day it will get a little bit easier.
Think I'm going to spend the remainder of my day reading. Later kids :)
- max
@ 6:57 AM
It's too cold to run today so I'm gonna ride 20 miles. My legs are telling me to die now and I haven't even started yet. 20 miles isn't so bad though, getting it in under an hour is where the challange lies. I'm not really sure if I can do it right now, I used to be able to but that was a few months ago and I haven't ridden much since then. Oh well, it must be done if i'm going to be in shape for the summer.
Who said it was a good idea to have classes at 7:30? They deserve a swift kick to the shin.
- max
Monday, February 16 @ 11:10 PM
I just love falling asleep at 5 and waking up around 10:30, seriously nothing more fun than knowing you're not going to sleep for the rest of the night.
Lack of sleep isn't that bad though, I've done it before. I have my guitar, I have a giant collection of movies and I have this thing. I'll manage I think.
Time for cartoons now!
Yes, I'm a geek.

@ 10:28 PM
"I play in a band
We're the best in the land
We're big in both Chelsea and France
I play one mean guitar and then score at the bar
There's a line of chicks waiting for their chance
So come on now honey, I'll make you feel pretty
These other gals mean nothing to me
Let's finish these drinks and be gone for the night
Cause I'm more than a handful you'll see"
"So kiss me, I'm shitfaced. "
Erm, no not really. I'm just a tad burnt out from all of the studying so I'm rocking out with the murphs.
I'm thinking about putting a movie in... Jason X beckons. Yes I know it's a terrible movie, but there's nothing better than something brainless right now. It is maybe the most unintentionally funny movie I've ever seen.
- max
@ 5:11 PM
Oh yeah, I liked lost in translation very much. It was a little odd but bill murray was awesome in it.
Not odd bad, just odd. Crazy japanese pop culture and stuff. Really gotta get some things done now.
- max
@ 5:09 PM
I studied for my history test while watching lost in translation today, yay for multitasking.
I'm looking over my study guide for this test, it amazes me that all of this information can be crammed into 50 mutiple choice questions. The same goes for my poli sci exam later this week. I mean, I'm not that worried about either test, I'm just looking at a study guide that is 4 pages front and back for a test that is only 50 questions... weird.
One week till my birthday! Erm yeah, excitement... I guess? I dunno, every year it just seems like less of a big deal. I only have three friends that will be in town next weekend so I don't think I'll be up to much. Hopefully my parents will get me that mic I've been asking for so I can start to record some of the songs I've been working on.
Dinner then more studying and then maybe some sleep.
- max
Saturday, February 14 @ 11:28 AM
Today agenda.
1. Watch the Kentucky game.
2. Go to Barnes and finish my book.
3. Meet up with Nate and Lucas and enjoy our singleness or something like that.
4. Come home and watch lost in translation.
I think today will be fun even without a valentine.

Friday, February 13 @ 11:35 PM
Updates!
Today was rather uneventful for Friday the 13th and all... Not like I'm all that superstitious anyway... Today was just another day. I'm thinking that will be the same for tomorrow too. I plan to read for most of the day, meet up with some friends later that night.
I rented lost in translation today, haven't seen it yet though. I don't think I will tonight, I'm rather tired. So I'm gonna go to sleep now.
If you have someone special out there I hope you have fun with em tomorrow, and if no worries if you don't. It's just a big scam by the cardmakers anyway :)

Oh yes, if you haven't figured out by the last couple of posts, I just learned how to bold things... Yes, I am a retard.

@ 12:39 AM
Currently listening to: Eric Clapton "layla" Acoustic... and yes I will lean this song. Well.. I can play it already for the most part, solos and junk though, it will happen. I mean, I have so much free time I think I can learn to play almost anything.
I spend waaaaay too much time at barnes and noble. After classes and some errands I spent a good 4 hours reading the wastelands. Came home and napped for a bit, Lucas called... He and nate were going to barnes. Guess who went back? Spent a while talking to them and their friend Rachel. She was pretty cool.
"When I've got the music, I've got a place to go." Guess that means I'll be going now.
Oh yes, one more thing. Jeni and I will be writing again at some point in the near future, this makes me very happy. Playing around with both the 6 and 12 string have really given me a lot of new ideas. She has ideas I have ideas, we shall mesh them into something beautiful. Or at least try... again with having the music and going.
Peace Homies.

Tango and Cash reminds me of all that was cheesy and good in the 80's.
I get to play errand boy for my father tomorrow and pick up some furniture after class... Because that's just what I want to do with my free time. Hauling heavy shit for other people, it appears to be the only thing I'm good for.
Why in the name of all things holy did I sign up for a 7:30 class? It's just not right, with that being said I'm going to go to bed.
Hey, that rhymed... oooh maybe I really am starting to achieve marky markness! Or not, but the abs are starting to come along.
Seriously time for bed now.

Book two is finished! Very good I might add, if you're looking for a good escape and don't mind language and violence I highly suggest reading the dark tower series by Steven King. I'll be starting on three either tomorrow or Wednesday.

@ 2:40 PM
Holy crapmonkies! Yes, the situation is so drastic that I have used the term crapmonkies. Is that bad? Well, yeah... for a guy who doesn't feel crapmonkies means all hell is breaking loose.
Some band covered the cure's lovesong... the single best depressing/longing/stalkerish love song ever written. It sounds alright... but it lost all the pain that makes it so good. No dude, you are not robert smith, your band is not the cure. You are not cool enough to be playing that. I may sound elitest, but you're f'ing with one of my favorite songs.
Weird man... I'm out for a while. Things to do and whatnot.

@ 10:28 AM
Man what was I thinking... None of you are even awake yet. Uh, guess i'm gonna go make some lunch and then go read my book. Worthless! erm I mean, I love you guys.
- max
@ 8:21 AM
Hrm, let's take a poll.
How should Max spend his 3 hour break today?
1. Either go to the fitness center or come home and work out.
2. Go to the bookstore or library and read some more of Drawing of the Three
3. Come home and sleep.
4. Screw class, sleep more... erm this can't really be an option, but it would be nice.
I'm putting my day in your hands people, i'll check this thing after econ and I'll probably go with what y'all pick. Mainly because i'm an indecisive loser, and I want to see what you think I should do! This is assuming a few of you actually pick one, like if nobody does i'll just stand there all confused... or something.

Tuesday, February 10 @ 10:37 PM

I had an interesting talk with a friend yesterday, he and his girlfriend just had their one year anniversary. It's kinda funny ya know, a year ago you never would have thought that jarboe would be in a steady relationship or anything like that. Not a knock against the guy, he's my best friend and an amazing person, it's just not what we were expecting. But there it is, a whole year... I cannot fathom being in a relationship for that long. The longest I've gone was a summer and that showed me why I shouldn't be in a serious relationship. These kids really have something though and it's a wonderful thing to see. I can't say that they're going to make it though all the issues that come with being in a relationship like that and that everything is going to be ok, but if anyone can I think it's them. They give me hope and I wish them the best.
We talked about some other things too, life, the future, where we're all going to end up and stuff. He's worried that after college we're all going to move away and we won't see eachother anymore. It's not a pleasant thought, but it is a possibility, who knows what is going to happen in the coming years and where we're going to end up. I mean, four years ago I was living in Lexington Kentucky and had no idea that I'd be moving to Indiana. Things just happen, we cannot predict the future. We'll just have to cross that bridge when we come to it, we're all freshmen in college, and we will have the summers. After that who knows.
Well, now that all of that is out of my system I'm gonna head out and be social or something.

"We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams."
I hope you like my updates, I do anyway. I think I'm going to go to bed now, there were some other things I wanted to say earlier today, it seems kinda silly now though. That's just the way things work, something seems so important at the time, but after a little while you laugh at yourself for making such a big deal out of it.
My birthday is coming up soon, I'm asking for some recording equipment, preferably for my computer but I'll settle for a dat recorder or anything really. I've been having a lot of ideas for songs lately and if I can't find a way to save them I'm going to be bummed. I'm the forgetful type if you haven't figured out by now, it would be a shame to lose all the pretty music. At least I think it's pretty. Early classes tomorrow, I should go to bed now.

Another night alone with my guitar. It's not like I don't have any friends or anything... I just don't feel like being social tonight. Besides, right now I have some feelings in me that I need to work on, and since I'm an idiot when it comes to words all I can do is play.
I was at Barnes and Noble earlier today reading the gunslinger by Steven King. I'm only about 50 pages into it but I do enjoy it so far. Anyway I was just sitting there enjoying my coffee and book and I looked over and saw Katie walk by. She didn't see me, just went to the table in front of me and sat down. I still felt bad about how our whole thing went down and I kinda wanted to apologize to her, but due to the fact that I'm a moron who can't talk, and cannot stand confrontations I just left.
I think I might be making some changes to the blog, I'm not really up for the silly fun of Bill and Ted anymore. I'm not gonna mess with it unless I find an interesting replacement though, we'll see what happens.

So my parents told me that I could not go to class today... How's that for backwards? Can't complain though, I mean who's going to argue with that?
I slept prettymuch all day today. Not so good for max's workout routine, but hey sleep is good. Besides, I have a 3 hour break tomorrow for the exercise stuff. In the time I was awake today, which really wasn't a whole lot, I messed around online for a bit or played my guitar.
Ninja turtles 3 was on tv today, although it is the worst movie in the series it's still kinda cool to see it on tv. Who knew that they still showed that stuff?
Sleepytime now, tomorrow I found out just how much I rocked on that econ test. Yay.

It's supposed to be ugly tomorrow morning. Weither they cancel my classes or not I think I'm gonna take the day off.
Max = tired, a day full of sleep would be pretty nice.
"Playback,
Rock and roll come and save me,
It's a safe bet
That you will never ever betray me,
And I'll give back
Everything that you gave me,
And I know that
No one can ever, ever contain me,
And I won't get bogged down like some American consumer,
Nah, I'm dancing now to a whole different drummer,
And I'll keep listening to the great Joe Strummer,
'Cause through music
We can live forever"
Yay for bands that actually mean something, listen to more rancid. That is all.

So apparently I have some ninja skills when it comes to econ, who would have thought? It also seems that the one day I missed in there they set up a seating chart, so my professor thought I had been absent every single day since then. That was an interesting conversation... he has seen me in there though and said he would take care of the absenses. All appears to be going well on the school front. Now if I could only do something about the bordom i'd be all set.
Yes leah I do need a vacation, and I should come visit you. Actually finding time to do so seems kinda tough right now, thanks for the offer though :)
My dads 12 string is my new best friend, I never thought anything would sound as good as my Martin but I was wrong. This guitar is a thing of beauty, I must heed my fathers warning though, playing a 12 string all day will make you lazy and your playing will regress. It's also a bitch to solo on.
Time to go to class again, peace homies... homies?

Blahblah studying for econ test tomorrow. Cats won :) Uh, this isn't the most interesting post ever, but i've been jamming econ bullshit into my head for the last hour. I cannot be creative right now... someone come save me?
Wesily Willias does not make for good studying music, but it does break the insane dullness of econ crapola. You should check him out!
Must return to the studying... unless someone wants to be cool and kidnap me. See ya

Today was somewhat eventful, after my classes this morning I went over to barnes and noble to get some coffee and finish up New Spring. Over all it's a good book, though I would have liked Jordan to go into lan's situation a little bit more. 3/4's of the books was the usual sedai stuff, and while I do enjoy it I was more into lans side of the story. This brings me to my only complain about the whole thing... lans mentor is dead his best friend betrayed him... and he has nothing to say? I mean yeah lan is the strong silent type but dang. You would think he would have you know said something... I realize that anyone who doesn't read wheel of time doesn't know what the hell i'm talking about, so I think that's all for my review. I had a nice day today.
It seems as if I feel asleep... I started writing at 5 and it's 8 now. Don't ya love it when that happens? The game is going to start soon. Time to spend some quality time with my brother.

So right now my life is kinda like a cusack movie... not really say anything because i'm neither a kickboxer or stalker, same goes with grosse point blank, though that would be pretty cool. I'm thinking it's like better off dead, only minus the hot french exchange student.
Seriously, I mean it's nothing to complain about. The things that happen to me are pretty damn funny, i'll have to admit that. And if it wasn't happening to me i'd be laughing too.
Oh yeah, one bit of good news. My econ test didn't happen today, so I get 2 more days to study. Go me :)

You know what's not fun? Losing your econ folder until 20 minutes before you leave for class. yeah.. I just thought i'd share that. Now because it's econ i'll still have a fighting chance, would have really liked to see this thing last night though.
Girls are stupid
Well, not all girls. In fact most of the ones I know right now aren't. But people who get angry over what I post over here and don't say anything to me are stupid. I haven't slammed anyone in my posts before. If I call you a "cool kid" It's because I think you're cool. The fact is I got into that whole thing for the wrong reasons and it wasn't fair to the other person involved. I'm sorry that I wrote in here before talking to you for the "whole world to see," but that's what I do. When I feel something I write about it on here or I write music. Thanks to Lucas and Leah for listening to me rant last night and backing me up. I love my friends.
I need a vacation

I have my guitar... right now that's all I really need. I'm not feeling good right now, there are a number of reasons why but I don't really feel like getting into it. Honestly, I don't know if I could even express how I feel if I tried. That's the wonderful thing about music, God gave fools like me a chance to express my feelings though something. I've never been good with words, I don't think I ever will be. Thank God for my guitar.
Oh yeah, one more thing. A guitar cannot break your heart, I think that's a plus.

So I went to the mall to get a hair cut, I didn't make an appointment and had like an hour to kill. Wandered around for a bit, I'm not a huge fan of the mall... Especially when I'm alone. Walked into fye and saw kimmie, I haven't seen her since our ethics final last semester so it was really nice to catch up. I spent the hour talking to her and matt.
My laptop has been confiscated for the time being so my dad can do taxes, it was rather annoying at first but since I found out that I'll be getting $700 back I think I can deal with it.
Well, I have an econ test tomorrow so I should probably get to studying.

I saw big fish tonight, I really liked it. It's the best movie I've seen in a long time. Closest I've ever come to crying during a movie... Yeah, I'm a wuss. Still, very good movie I recommend you see it.
I liked hanging out with Katie tonight, but it really showed me that I like where I'm at right now and I don't want to be in a relationship. She's a really wonderful kid and I do enjoy her company, but that's just not what I'm looking or right now. I didn't "make any moves" tonight because of what I just said, I kinda got the feeling that she wanted me to but it just wouldn't be right. In the past in situations like these I just went ahead and did thing with the person and then regretted it later and it ruined some friendships. I didn't want to do that again, so I didn't try anything. I enjoyed the company of a cool kid tonight, but nothing happened, and that's how I want it to stay for now.
