whoa

At the urging of Rachel and my boredom, I've decided to update this blog.

I haven't been on here for awhile, but I didn't have to dust off too many cobwebs. Lately, I've gotten back into playing music after a two-month hiatus. It's like riding a bike. I just got back on and it felt natural.

Things I've been doing lately:

School- I registered for classes the other day. I was scheduled to register at 11am on Wednesday. Thanks to KU's lack of capacity on their Online Student Services server, I couldn't get on to register until 4pm.

Food- I've been cooking a lot and making a lot of interesting dishes.

Drink- I've been trying different beers. Some good, some bad

Relationships- I've been spending a lot of quality time with Rachel. I'm in love.

!!!

This past weekend, well, more like Friday night, was one of the best nights I've ever had. I was down in Kutztown for the night for the first time in awhile. It was great to see Rachel, I missed her so much. Good times were had at the pub, as always. I'm so happy the two of us worked out our differences...we're back together again. I love that girl :)


I'm coming down to Kutztown again this weekend, so I'm sure plenty of good times will be had again.

Helping out the environment.

http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1881646,00.html?iid=perma_share

I read this article today in the most recent issue of Time Magazine today. I think it's interesting that Denmark, such a small country, is the model for what other nations should do to help the environment. I think this is awesome.

Allentown = Lame

For years, I've been thinking that Allentown is probably one of the lamest places to live. What is there to do here in this once booming city? NOTHING. Center city Allentown, which, decades ago, used to be consumed with numerous retail establishments, venues for the arts, and amazing restaurants now appears to be a ghost town. I mean, Allentown Symphony Hall is still located there, as well as the Allentown Brew Works, but other than that, there's nothing. I'm so sick of this place. I'm sick of the Lehigh Valley in general. I want to move to a large city. I don't care if it's expensive. I don't care if I can only afford to live in a soup can. I want to get out of here and relocate to some other place. I want live where I can be exposed to different culture, art, and music. GET ME OUT OF HERE.

Spring break? No.

Let's see, what have I done the past few days?

-I watched seasons 1 and 2 of Heroes over a two day period.
-I finally watched 3:10 to Yuma. Such a good movie.
-Saw The Watchmen yesterday. That movie was much different than I expected.

So, yeah, this is what I've done.

I'm still loving that girl :)

mmmhmmm

Today was just another day in the neighborhood. Watched some movies today- Hitman, Max Payne, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and The Strangers. Yeah, I know, "Colin, how do you have that much time?!" Well, it's Spring Break and I don't have shit to do. It was just one of those sit around, relax, and do nothing kind of days. It was awesome.

I downloaded Bring Me the Horizon's album "Count Your Blessings" today. I'm rocking out to that right now.

I've got my eye on a cutie ;)

Santigold was the musical guest last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Check this out, this is her performing the song "Shove It."

things

The past few days, I've had this feeling of absolute content. I went to the doctor for my post-op appointment yesterday and he said everything is looking good. He even gave me the clear to start drinking beer again! Additionally, Rachel and I have been talking and working things out. I love that girl :) Other than the things mentioned above, I really have nothing else to write.

I'm excited to go see Watchmen on Friday, it should be good.
