Pretend I don't exist

Get this- someone complained to me over the phone about their place in my blog. Why would you ever use a phone when a simple 'comment' would do? I don't understand. But for that action of his, Seth Niesen gets a special little space right here, all to himself, where he can bitch and moan all he wants to!!




Also, I heard a rumor that in cell bio lab people were talking about me saying I was, and i quote, 'smart and funny'. I would have included hot, too. But 2/3 aint bad, as they say.

Finally, on Thursday morning I go discuss my actions with the dean dude. About climbing the crane. And I think I'm going to be aggressive and lay into this motherfucker. I am active on campus. I am an A student.I volunteer and soon shall be tutoring undersmart kids. I play a sport, am in the honor society (maybe 2), participate in deviant behavior with the fraternity he most wants to leave campus, and most importantly PAY FOR THESE PRIVILEGES!! Why should I essentially be banned from the campus community for a series of bad decisions that led to...NOTHING!! (and was assisted by open doors and unlocked cranes...certainly violations of some code for safety). I climbed a crane, so what? There are C students on our sports teams. There are drunks in my frat and there are drug users in every class I take, yet a simple crane climber such as myself is being treated like a leper. I even donated blood! And if I'm on probation so is it and I want it back and will stop at nothing to get that blood and drink it- letting enough trickle out through my lips emphasize my anger as well as symbolize the slaughter of an innocent believer in staying young and exploring to my hearts content. I am Kyle, hear me roar!!

How do we know anything?

I sit here studying for a genetics exam and I realize that I should never complain about this type of thing (sitting here and studying genetics). See, at one point in time people had no idea what genetics is/was/why they kept having colorblind babies. But over about 100 years Mendel did some pea stuff, Thomas Hunt Morgan did some fly stuff and Watson and Crick did some DNA stuff and wala! Now you can abort your babies time and time again until the doctor says they have the genetic code to be 6'8'' and good at basketball. Lord knows the US of A could use some new players so we don't get our asses kicked again the next time we have to play the powerhouse known as Puerto Rico. Anyway, my point is that I have to read 20 pages of a text book. Yikes! But those guys had to WRITE the text book. They spent years in lab watching flies do it. Just for me, so that my life would be better. And is it? If it weren't for them we wouldn't know a thing about genetics...but then I'd never have to think about it or study it...would that make my life easier? Or just emptier? If I didn't have to take calculus because Newton hadn't invented it yet. If I didn't have to read, since we didn't have an alphabet. If I didn't have to talk, since we didn't have a spoken language. If instead of going to the sub I ate what I killed. And I had to drag it home since I didn't even have a wheel to roll it on. Man, I want a time machine. And a dinosaur as a pet.

Life is Good

Man, I feel like a cliche. But life is good. It sucks that my buddy Joe left, but if it's better for him in the long run then as a good friend I have to be supportive of that. But seriously, this semester, while not as much fun as England was (but what ever would be?) is going great and is much less work than ever before because my lab classes don't have tedious write ups due each week! What a concept! School is easy thus far, I'm in a bowling league and playing rugby, I just made great spring break plans and I have a new favorite TV show. It's called Scrubs and is by far the best thing that has ever happened to me. I now spend 3 hours a day watching episodes on a small computer screen.

However, I guess there are a few bad things.
1. My lifting partner is a pussy. Where are Paul and Miff?
2. I am kind of sick but not really bad sick
3. I climbed a crane in the construction site and now a few of us are kinda in trouble...so I gotta figure out what that's all about! but we heard people talking about us in the sub and we'll make t-shirts so it'll be worth it.
4. Drew is kinda upset I get the feeling, and that's not cool.
5. I now owe Meg dinner since she just bought me dinner. Damn.

As far as lives go, I'd say mine is going pretty well right now and I can only hope yours is also! Watch some Scrubs, Turk and JD will cheer you up and Elliot (a girl!) is so hot and cute that it's worth watching just for that. And Dr. Cox is funny and Kelso is an asshole so we connect and the janitor...savage.

Listening to Daft Punk because I can, biotch.
'All relationships are just smoke' -Drew, as told to him by some biotch in a dream of his.

Weekend Update

I can say for sure now that I'm at school. Work is piling up, things are getting weird and friends are leaving. I don't know where I was for the first month when, with the exception of my grandmothers passing, things were easy and exciting. However at the request of a friend I joined the rugby team and now playing rugby has become my new favorite thing to do. The guys on the team are awesome and the sport itself is a lot of fun- soon i'll know how to play and get a spot more in the middle of the action than i am now. I guess that's my update. Rugby is awesome. This weekend we played an all gay old mens team in seattle. we lost, but it was close, and after the game they took us for bbq and drinks so we got drunk for free with these big gay rugby players. what a day! Also, i think coldplay is my favorite band, even if listening to them make me depressed sometimes. their music is so soothing and relaxing- it'd be perfect if it didn't have so many connections to it. but that's not enough to stop me from listening to it. holla

Holla!

Ok listen up, I got a few things to say. For starters, make sure you're here on Thursdays (Sigma Nu...not my blog) because we have these things known as 'funky ass parties' and it would be a shame if you weren't involved. Allow me to list what I witnessed:

1. Apparently someone punched someone. And sadly I missed it, but was there for the repercussions (read: some friend getting really pissed).

2. There was a mattress sticking out of my door all night. I dont know why, but I got some ideas.

3. Puke. Lots. In the hall. In both stalls- at once!

4. When I came home this morning there was/still is someone (a certain Andrew Neal) in my bed. This marks the second time in like 4 days. WTF, mate?

5. I saw Nick Brown who is a savage.


In case you're not convinced to attend next week...
TNC is...
...a great way to get drunk!
...guaranteed to ruin your GPA!
...free beer for topless girls! (always applies)
...great way to meet people who you can befriend on facebook! (i'm kidding, facebook sucks)
...felt by all the morning after. and usually into the evening.
...the best acronym invented.

There used to be a time when...

I updated. Yikes. Anyway, due to my constituents pressuring me to besiege them with irrelevancy I shall comply rather than lose the popular vote. Since I have nothing interesting to say I am going to instead list what I do each week, except for my classes since that would be tedious and basically i am in class from 10-1 M,W,F.

Monday: lift @ 2
rugby @ 4
chapter @ 6
IM Basketball @ 9 or 10

Tuesday: lift @ 9:30
lab @ 1

Wednesday: rugby @ 4
bowling league @ 9

Thursday: lift @ 9:30
lab @ 1
guitar lesson 1 @6
guitar lesson 2 @8
TNC

Friday: lift @ 2
rugby @4

If you analyze closely the data at hand you'll notice no mention of homework or drinking, yet, i certainly must do one of the other right- cause we all know there is no time for both!
