Lying Eyes

So much to say....

Despite the football team falling to 7th in the Pac-10, we still get to go the second place bowl, which seems totally ridiculous to me.  Just another sweet gig this year that just fell into our laps.  And people are going to whine about the bus trip and whatnot, it's a different trip, to a different city, playing a different team, what's not to love about this?  We shouldn't even be in a bowl game since we're 7th, and we get this....so grateful.  And the way I found out, by Steve Sarkisian tweeting that UW was headed to San Diego, is exactly why I even have a twitter in the first place haha. for sports and more sports that espn simply can not give me.

Anyways, there's other stuff that happens before this though.  Finals are next week, which is lame, especially because I have two on Tuesday morning, after a Monday night band rehearsal...yuck.  Oh well.  And the Icecats game against ASU is next weekend, and people are coming to visit, it's gonna be quite the couple weeks down here in Tucson before heading back up to that white place called Flagstaff for Christmas.

And back to the original purpose of this silly blogging thing, I go back to the zoo two weeks from today!! :)  I'm so excited to be back there on a weekly basis, and to see what's changed over the last few months.  I'm glad I can go in once before Christmas just so I have an idea of what's going on there before being a regular again.

It's time to not let anything that anyone says bother me and just live life the way I want to, and not let them hold me back or ruin the experiences that are about to happen.

I thought by now you'd realize, there ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes

Walking in a winter wonderland

First and probably only blog from Flagstaff. It's so cold here. And there's still snow in some roads. I'm glad Tucson doesn't have this problem. It's kind of annoying. So, it's been a really crazy week with finals and driving to Flag and not having anything to do now that I am here, so imma blog a little.

Semester ended up being good, a's in everything except ochem which was a solid 79% B. Still need to do this physics correspondence thing done, but it'll happen. Tests were soooo stressful, but everything turned out to be ok.

5 movies watched this week, all three jurassic parks one night, Funny People, and The U this afternoon (and man do I need to get The Hangover so I can watch it a million times the rest of break). Jurassic park is always awesome, except for the middle one, which is just weird. Funny People was alright, I would've thought it would be better, but Adam Sandler is on the downturn so I guess it's not really surprising. The U though was absolutely incredible. So much that I didn't know about Miami football, and how college football is the way it is now (lame and boring) because of Miami football (exciting and awesome). And how Dennis Erickson went from winning two national titles in Miami to coaching the ASU Scum Devils I will never understand.

College basketball started for real this week. Great matchups all weekend, exciting finishes, it was just awesome. I wish football teams would schedule as tough as some of these basketball teams do. Even though Arizona basketball is faltering, February and March will still be just as great (just not in the Pac-10). Watched the volleyball championship game tonight, it was incredible. So fast paced. I feel that if word started spreading about college volleyball, more and more people would watch it and go to it. So awesome.

Only one week until San Diego!!! Gets more exciting every day

It's more than a feelin :)

Walkin on sunshine

Finals are here, Christmas is soon, and bowl trip is right after that. I mostly just wanted to post a new blog so I could put off doing more o chem for now.

I wouldn't say anything too exciting has happened this week. Mostly just happy I don't live in Flagstaff and have to deal with all the snow. Today was 60 here in the great city of Tucson. That's awesome! I wish it was like that every day.

Classes are over, so that's fun. Went to a women's basketball game last night against New Mexico. Let's just say that rooting for New Mexico like Roy did would have definitely been a lot more fun. And just like Andre said during the game, could we seriously not be going to either tourney? Doesn't look great right now....

I'm gonna go back to that endless pit of ochem and ecology notes now, I'll come out tomorrow night, but that's probably it. Hopefully the Icecats keep on their winning ways and crush the 9th ranked Scum Devils tomorrow night. And please let band rehearsal not be freezing cold Monday night and the meeting short enough so I can actually study for a little bit that night for my most important final the next morning....

And Don't it Feel Good?
