K so school update (ty you can skip this one its kinda boring.)
My days start at 6 AM In the fitness center. Monday, Wednesday and Friday i have distance, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday i have sprints. After I run, i have plyometrics and lifting till 8.
Shower.. usually but stinky tinky well :D
I hit the books till 10 then i have Calculus. Now see i'm not good at calc as it is, so by all means give me a teacher that sounds like Mr. Mee-ah-gee from the Karate Kid. (not kidding he is brilliant though.)I keep waiting for him to slap his hands together and "heal" my brain.
ah school goes on, Work was pretty busy here in Admissions, me and Laloni just kinda did our own thing we are the only first years that work on the 3rd floor, the rest are seniors and oh my gosh they are semi-ridiculous senioritis IS WORSE in college. there are 12 of us that work up here and yea when 10 people trip up the stairs you know it was a long weekend, and if you ask them about it they wont remember. ah well its all good.
Oral Communications is interesting but its a LOT of work, and our teacher says "Right" just about 200 times in an hour, and then tells US not to use verbal fillers. Ah Wellness 4 Life is maybe my favorite class, i get credit for running and lifting :) and the in class work well its stuff i already know, we are going over muscles and bones and systems i can safely say i'm doing well in this class.
Japanese Customs well its BORING but i don't have to lose points for not drinking green tea. Thank goodness.
Janitor Work well i have better days, but its not so bad i get to drive a cart around so thats pretty cool, and i don't mind vacuuming, and sweeping floors, its the scrubbing the showers and toilets that i don't like, Seniors are disgusting. and cleaning up vomit is NASTY. (sorry Scarlet) no its not that bad all the time, mostly i do what Brian our Groundkeeper asks me to.
INSTITUTE- ah i look forward to Wednesday nights they are a blast!! President Berlin is amazing and way funny.

SNOW
This past weekend I went on a bit of an adventure but had a great time. I was snowed in in Mayberry (yes the very same Mayberry where little Opie Taylor grew up its right off Andy Griffith Highway HUGE tourist attraction - i'll post some pictures soon) Here is a list of "little" snow fun...
-FREE SLEDS- From the Academy closet at 3 AM down Academy Hill
- Unusual SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS- a bench at Denny's :) (sleep followed shortly after open mic night. 40 of us got snowed in there. and yes they did give us free pancakes) and then later i slept in Mayberry at Sam's house with the YSA's because they shut the town down due to 16 inches of snow.
-Balconies and SNOWMEN- out Mims and Vabs window there is a deck that wraps around Gramley Dorm. We technically aren't supposed to go out there but well it was untouched snow. Naturally we built a little SNOWFAMILY and turned them so you could see them from the road a little later Public Safety came to Gramley and chewed us/me out.
-SHE THINKS MY TRACTORS SEXY- Well to scrape the snow/ice off the roads they use a tractor well they so foolishly parked this said tractor outside of Gramley ... Naturally we built a snow fort around it. about 10 feet tall (we stole ladders from the student closet.) all the way around it and then we might have sprayed it with a hose so it would freeze during the night. . . :)
-NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED/PAY IT FORWARD- While the YSA's were snowed in, we took it upon ourselves to go shovel an older couples driveway. When we finished the Grandma comes out and tells us she called a friend down the road and told them we would do their driveway "just as soon as we were finished." we couldn't say no, so we hiked up the hill and after several tries all of us made it to this house. WITH A HUGE driveway i'm talking like the Davis's in TQville drive way.(from where you turn off the road) needless to say my shoulders are sore but the hot apple cider and hot chocolate and bread and soup when we came back was amazing.
-SNOW CANCELLATIONS- So it dropped a lot of snow but not like it does say north of Cedar back home i assumed church would still be going. I was wrong when it snows or even ices they cancel church. So we had church at Sam's house (reminded me a lot of Lake Powell.) it was really neat. The testimonies were awesome.
-BABCOCK BARRICADE- Babcock is the other freshmen dorm now see the cool thing about Babcock is if you set the alarm off on the basement exit (meaning you open the door after 11:01 pm) no one can use that door at all so everyone has to use the front door. :) Thinking of tractors we built once again a snow-wall about 4 feet from Babcocks only entrance. Now this one was 5 feet tall, (limited amount of time Babcock is on main campus.) and we ice-packed it SOOO good, and then we hid in Clewell (sophmore/junior dorm) the next morning and watched everyone try to break it down. Then they brought the tractor... and i received a notice on my room's door to meet with the Dean later that day...
oh and yes i'm sure i'll get chewed out. But hey its supposed to snow again this weekend. though i don't know how much i'll get to play in it because Sabi and I are coaching a team at a clinic friday and saturday.
