Recent pointless observations....

Okay so we are well into the school year and so far everything has been going pretty smooth. I did however notice a few pointless things that happen in our english class every time. Our professor Casey McArdle likes to say the word HILARIOUS which someone finally pointed out today. I'm not kidding he says it at least five times a class. Another thing that he always does is that he likes to make the noise "Wah" whenever he encounters a small problem with anything (Jacob Taylor origionally pointed it out). It's really funny to listen for because he does it every class. Today i counted 3 "Wahs" and the day before i counted 4. I am not doing this to be mean in any way, shape, or form. I am simply saying that everyone has certain ticks and phrases that they are always good for saying or doing. McArdle has his, you have yours and I have mine. Every person seems to like to say certain words or phrases. I have no idea as to why we do it, but it is pretty funny to listen for once we pick up on it.

Unexpected weekend

So all of last week my girlfriend who goes to ISU was talking about this gigantor surprise she was going to get me. She told all of my friends what it was except for me so for the entire week they kept dropping hints and clues as to what it was. She kept telling me that I was going to get it on Friday.
So Friday comes along and I don't see anything in the mailbox. It got to be pretty late and I started thinking that it would never come. Then I'm sitting in my dorm and I see a letter that slides from under my door. I causally walk over to the door and read the note. It says "Andrew, open your door!" I open my door and there is my girlfriend standing there! I was so shocked that i didn't know what to say. Unfortunately, the only word I could say was "what are you doing here?"...I know that it sort of killed the surprise but i really was astonished to see her standing there.
We hung out the whole weekend and we went to this Chinese buffet joint where we ate sushi and octopus for the first time....by the way eating the octopus was really sketchy and I will never eat that crap ever again in my life.

Tom Brady...

So Tom Brady suffered a season ending injury the other day and I couldnt be any happier. The Colt's now don't have to worry about the Patriots this year that is unless, Matt Castle surprises us all (which he won't). There is no way that they are going to make it to the playoffs this year and that leaves me a very happy Colts fan....minus the loss to the Bears.

BRAIN STORMING!

So i really am not sure what to write about for my significant object but i have some ideas: My truck, my shoes, my backpack, or my i pod.  I think out of all of those i use my backpack more though....i mean i pretty much take it everywhere, and use it all the time. I also have had it all through high school too so i think i may write about that for my significant object.

Killing Jim Carrey...

Okay so im just going to set this up for you. I usually have some pretty crazy dreams. Like i dont mean to brag....but they are pretty much awesome. But lately a haven't had any that i can remember....im in sort of a dream drought i guess you could say. But the dream i had last night definitley got me out of the dry spell i was in. So in my dream i get a call from my good friend jacob (yes, the jacob in our english class) Jacob proceeds to tell me that Aaron (my other good friend who is in fact in the same english class as well) is having a mongo huge birthday party and that we are all invited...woot.  So i drive to aaron's house where i see several other party goers waiting for the party to begin.  A few minutes after arriving aaron tells us that we are going to all spend the night in this giant fort in the middle of a field. So we all go to this fort and im not going to lie...this fort that we were supposed to stay the night in was uber creepy. Im talking rotting wood, bloodstains....the works.  So everyone (including Aaron) flips out and decides to bail out on the birthday party and go home.  So that leaves me by myself.  And i decide in my infinite wisdom to stay in this fort overnight because after all its just an old creepy fort where people we probably slaughtered in...no biggie.  So night falls...and by that i mean the sun did one of those time laspse things so it went from the afternoon to midnight in oh i dont know...4 seconds. And once it got dark all hell broke loose. Like i hear all these strange noises and stuff at the base of the fort, almost like something is being summoned.  I look down to see what awaits me.  And looking back up at me is....Jim Carrey as the Riddler. So i dont know wether to run or wait for him because i am in fact a huge Jim Carry fan.  But the 12' butcher's knife i saw holding in his hand quickly persuaded me to try to escape from the fort.  So Jim Carry finally gets up to the top and i am stuck up there.  He keeps laughing and doing these crazy Jim Carrey faces (which i find hilarious) while he inches closer with this knife...then all of the sudden...i hear a horn. I look down and its my girlfriend in this wicked awesome car.  "Andrew, jump into the car!" she screams as she revs the engine.  So i jump down into the car and look up as i see Jim Carrey scream and turn into a flaming skeleton and then watch the fort blow up.  I felt kind of bad that I ended Jim Carrey's career and his life but it was either me or him....and to be honest his movies have kinda been suckin it up lately so i felt no remorse.  So i ended my dream drought by killing Jim Carrey....which, in turn ended his bad movie drought. A win win situation if you ask me
