cold
hi everybody,
I recently got a request to post in my journal. I know that it's been a long time. Many exciting things have happened between now my last entry. Mainly Thanksgiving break. First, I will talk about my day. Right now I'm in the computer lab in the science building. I'm using an iMac. Ah, how they just glow. It makes me happy just to be near one. It also has this wonderful typewriter font which makes my paper more appealing. Today it's really cold outside, I think in the 30s. This, along with the fact that it is already dark is making me not want to go back to the MECCA. Tonight the MECCA is celebrating La Posadas, a Christmas tradition from Mexico. Luis is supposed to play his guitar and we are going to walk through the interest houses with candles. I can't wait. I'm also excited because even though it is only Tuesday, i have a little bit of my paper done. Whoo hoo.
Every day of the week, the MECCA is having a cultural celebration from a different country. I'm helping out with Divali or Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights. There should be good food and fun.
Thanksgiving break was a nice time to catch up on work. The best part about it was going to Las Vegas to see my grandparents and my cousins. It was also nice to see my friends again. Sadly, I didn't make it to the barbeque, so I missed Lillian. At least I got to talk to Xi on the phone. I can't believe he hasn't gone clubbing for so long and that he tolerates his roommate's music.
It's scary how recently, I've been listening to more pop like Kylie while xi has been subjected to the strokes, ozma, and weezer. The world is coming to an end.
I know who's going to be in the MECCA next semester and I'm so excited. As sad as I am that everyone is leaving, I'm happy about the new people that are going to be there. The most exciting news of all is that Jolene, Ahjane, and I are thinking of living together second sememster of next year.
Well, I had better get back to my paper. It's about my environmental studies field trips which have been so much fun lately. The last one was a trip to the wind turbines on the Horse Heaven Hills. The wind turbines are sooooooo tall when you get close to them. It was amazing. The week before that, we got to go the Boise paper mill. That was probably my favorite field trip. We got to walk through the mill wearing ear plugs and bright orange hard hats. Ok, off to write.
Oh, making my typing experience even more pleasant is this new CD that I got in the last issue of Rolling Stone. At first I was a little disappointed in the song selection, but now I am enjoying it all. Who knew how great Elton John could be.
I also found my Beatles Christmas CD which I depressed about losing. Yeah! I can't wait to play it on the radio. Last week, I found that KDub has John Lennon's Imagine, the soundtrack and the album.
Felix oh Felix, why weren't you at your show.
Brag of the week: I searched for the name icezorro on google and my journal came up higher on the list than Xi's. Hahahaha.

Long post. I should add a photo. Hmm.. this is all I've got.
