Good Start

it's 6:20 am, the sun is starting to come up, and my roommates and i just got back after our first night of mardi gras break. we began with parade watching, though it was just jared and i and some friends, as mike was working and ryan hanging out with his grandpa. the parades were fun, but nothing really happened til about 1, when mike finally got back from work. jared and i had taken it easy til then, not wanting to get too far ahead of mike. as soon as he got back though, it was shotgunning beer and jaegerbombs for an hour or so, when we decided to head downtown. though we were a bit late to see the insane crowds, with chicks flashing every three feet, it was still a good time. hand grenades all round, adequate amount of boobage, i found $10 and a kickass captain morgan pirate hat on the ground, got to see some horse cops beat down a couple of tourists, and we topped it all off with a few minutes of relaxation looking out over the water and beignets. all in all a good start to an amazing week.

Feed my ego

Go here, do this, make me feel good.

i'm a model student

i just got back from my geology test. i think i did fairly well on it, considering i almost missed it. good thing my roommates is a little anal retentive, has two separate alarm clocks and gets up early even on day when he doesn't have class. his alarm went off at 9:20, i layed in bed for a few minutes deciding whether or not i wanted to try to make it to class at 9:30. i had just come down on the side of staying in my bed when i remembered we had a test today. i've never gotten dressed that quickly before, so i have that going for me.

changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes

my roommates and i have been listening to jimmy buffet all night, and now i'm really excited for our florida trip. not that i wasn't before, but i really am now. i just need to get through one more week of school, then watch some parades, drink a little, and then i'm on a beach for a week, with no worries and nothing to do except drink as many different beach drinks as i can (daiquiris, magaritas, etc.). anyone who has a good one is welcome to leave me the recipe.

oh, and i swear i'm really starting this blog up again. i'm no cocktease. ok, a small one (hehe, i'm funny) but i really will be posting on a semi-regular basis again.
