Fire, Ice, and Meatballs

Life. How crazy is that?

First of all, I have to announce that my mom got her first (and only) tattoo last week. She let me know she was upset that I didn't mention her in my last post entitled "tattoo time." So there it is, my mom is gaining cool points left and right. Try and keep up. By the way, here's a picture of Will's tattoo.



So I haven't been up to much this past week. I've let my studying take a bit of a back burner and have been finding other ways of entertaining myself.

As I'm sure you've noticed, I really enjoy messing with Teish. We've done just about everything we can do to her room, short of setting it on fire, so this week, I started a new trend. First, I took her key card while she was studying and froze it in a plate of water that popped out nicely once it was set. She was upset, but took it well and laughed it off. The next thing I did, she did not take well and did not laugh off. Over the year, Ash has been stealing her stuffed-animal monkey and hiding it places. It's quite funny because Teish goes into hysterics and actually smashed a window one time in a rage while trying to get her monkey back. So, I took her monkey and froze it in a block of ice. She didn't speak to me for two days.





The other night, Alex and Teish were making tea for some of their friends and, long story short, set fire to the kitchen. Lucky for them, I was there to heroically put out the flame before it grew too much and set off the fire alarm.



After a few days of hiatus, I've started studying for my finals. My PE final is a bit of a worry simply because there's a LOT of information to remember, but it's also all multiple choice. My Outdoor Ed. final is a bit of a worry because it was only a seven week long class and I haven't had it in the past two months and now I'm expected to remember it all. Also, if you asked me how to set a bearing on a compass, I would struggle a LOT and that's the sort of thing we're going to be tested over.

Anyway, other than that, life is simply that, life. I'm having a hard time sleeping at night because all I can think about is life and my brother and getting home and getting back to "real life." I'm not cooking much because I'm not eating much because I'm not doing much. It's almost 6pm and I haven't eaten today. I made meatballs last night for the first time. I'll probably stick to just meatloaf in the future.

I stopped smoking, but now that it's finals time I'm wishing I hadn't. Funny story, it was actually finals week my first semester in college that I started smoking. I'm realizing every day that I'm a grown up and that's weird.

Nathan told me "Dude, you're mustache is really starting to look like Dad circa 1985." That's pretty much the exact look I've been going for this whole time.



I saw sunshine and a full blue sky for the first time in nearly a week today.



Will snapped this today while I was talking to my mom.


My friend MJ leaves in the morning for Greece for a month. I'm really excited for her.

19 days until I see my brother.
