on the move
my mom found a buyer for the house and they want us out by the end of the month which gives us about a week and a half to pack up and go. i was packing up my room yesterday and i found some pretty odd things i decided to hang on to, most of it turned out to be junk, junk good enough to throw away.
are the later hooverphonic albums better than the first? no.
in red
and as the professor handed back our assignments one by one he called out my name and i went up to get it. as i went back to my seat i looked down to see if he had written any comments and in red at the bottom of the page were the words "see me"... what, am i in high school again?! at the end of class i went up to talk to him and showed him my paper and he said "oh... you need to make an appointment with me..." i paused for a second, "concerning what?..." he responded, "about your paper." and i thought, i'm only brainstorming the paper at the moment, what could i have possibly have done wrong? i left with an appointment and a very vague reason as to why he wanted to see me at a later date. guh.
in pursuit
dispite the millions of books i am reading and supposed to read i'm still thinking of tomorrow, the next academic year to be more specific. the next academic year back in the u-u-u-k to be even more specific. london via montana state uni - bozeman in the fall and a london internship via state uni ny college at brockport in the spring. i hope this works...
in the year 2000... plus four
actually this is where i will be going soon... very, very soon... mwahahaha

top five...
travis: 12 memories
garbage: self-titled
coldplay: rush of blood...
cranberries: wake up...
travis: the invisable band
i'm waiting for a leaflet/application to come in the mail comcerning kingston university in kingston upon thames... something i'm considering doing next year. ideally i would like to take a couple more modules in geography first semester and then intern during second semester... doing both in england. at the moment its just an idea, a crazy idea... but it just might work...
the others
its nice to hear from people via email as i have today. thank you everyone and keep it coming.
georgia
named after king george the first. i just booked my flight to atlanta for spring break for a week with my geog 440 class. i don't know anybody in the class. here are my predictions concerning the field trip...
-An listening to his discman while the group commutes
-An drinking alone whenever possible
...grim but realistic
sidenotes
travis: 12 memories... interesting. i'm not sure if i like the album as a whole. i must listen to it more...
london? yes please.
a thought
what if i didn't graduate this year? what if i decided to take additional courses next year? i could and i want to but would i let you down? would i be as i already am a failure? at this point i feel as thought i'm not ready because i haven't had enough direction. i would really like to go more into economic geography. a course that is offered, a course i did not take. i am not ready. suppose i even went as far as going back to england, but at kingston university instead of saint mary's. i'd fancy that. a semester or a year? i suppose i would depend on what courses they offer during that time. i know they offer geography modules and economic modules, but do they offer a combination of the two? i maybe on to something or i may just be fishing. i'll inquire. on a side note, i do think my fasination with the english has ended but i would just like to study and live far far far away from mankato. wouldn't it be fitting?
a poet... or an ass
if someone liked me i wouldn't know it. if i liked someone it would to hard to show it. but then again nobody talks to me and like wise so f..... it.
i can't figure out if i hate people or if people hate me, either way i lose.
...and never forget my greatest asset, my ability to magically disappear (i.e. this year). bla...
top five albums (i've listened to the most this week)
death cab for cutie: the photo album

radiohead: the bends
garbage: version 2.0
the doors: self-titled
stuck
i always wake up in the morning, go about my business and never really pay attention to what is happening in the world until i step out the door. this morning the same was true but when i stepped out the door i found that the previous night had dropped quite a lot of snow but it looked pretty harmless from where i was standing. then i started on my delayed journey back to saint peter and then on to mankato (from the twin cities). i made it to the end of the driveway before i had to abandon my vehicle because it got stuck and would not go any further dispite my twenty minute effort to free it. my car now lies halfway in my driveway and halfway in the street and i imagine it will be for sometime until i can get somebody to help me move it.
