Wooo. I got the gig

I'm officially a (supergeek) tutor in the CRS at my uni. Yay for shitty pay and awesome resume. Law school here I come.

congratulations!

[Rocket Queen]

Thanks man, my eyes are slightly blood shot, I've taken in one too many cups of what ever cheap coffee I've been offered/found on campus, and I'm exhausted even before classes have started, but I love it.

Now I just need to get straight A's and I can sleep soundly again once Christmas break kicks in.

Congrats RQ.  The sleep deprivation will all be worth it in the end.  Good Luck

uni of charleston baby. Then transferring to uga, emory or gsu my junior year... Is the plan.

She speaks english btw...but seriously its a nightmare...how do you get hairs on the wall of the shower, long black hairs..... Sharing a bathroom with three girls should be illegal. I had to have 'a talk' with them. One would assume that it is obvious that I appreciate the only 10 minutes of privacy i get a day-in the shower...alone. Apparantly, it isn't. I had to ask them not to come in while im in tthe fucking bathroom/shower. Also had to tell them how to clean. I don't want to be the mom on the 4th floor....

I'm telling you, come to Ohio State....it'd obvi be much better.

Also, I'm going to be a RA this year, so yay single rooms

When you guys say 'roommate' for college accommodation, do you mean that in the way that Americans use roommate for flatemate, e.g. the person you share an apartment with, or do you mean roommate as in you actually have to share a bedroom with someone?  That'd drive me fucking insane.  I'd honestly kill someone if I had to share a bedroom with them and they weren't my girlfriend.  Even then, the short time (about a month and a half) I lived with a girlfriend in the past we were both on the brink of throttling one another until we got separate places sorted out.

GA forever in my heart... I just love the South..the temperatures, the beaches, the fine southern dining, the southern hospitality.... I'd want a house in the future in Atlantic Station ATL, as a base, then obviously travel constantly with work. I don't know where I'll end up yet though, gotta be something to keep me there.

I will drive up to Ohio once I get the car up here though, been wanting to check it out.

Gonna be an RA? Sweeet, I've seen their single rooms, they got king beds.. twin beds suck, first of, only room for one, second of, I haven't slept in one since I was ten, FOR A REASON.

I'm afraid we mean sharing bedrooms... I am a very peculiar person, so it is not an ideal situation..good thing I have a car and people to escape to... There are a small handfull of people I could live with (more like 3, I think).

Best part, there is a hall meeting at ten tonight.. I haven't had time to sleep in 2 weeks. And I start my 19 credit course load tomorrow.

There are about 45 other states I'd rather visit before Ohio ---

[Rocket Queen]

What are you talking about? 3.5 H to Cincinnati from where I'm at in WV.

And it's nowhere on the top of my list but.. it's on the way to places I'm wanting to go. I'll road trip west sometime..but that's a two day drive, if I drive like 9 h straight a day.

The Gigue/Bouree band rehearsal

These two video gems show Jon Lord rehearsing Gigue and Bouree with only a rhythm section.

Jon Lord will usually begin new rehearsals with only the band present and later add the orchestra. This is a glimpse into that process.

The clips are from Trondheim, May 22 and shows Martin Axenrot on drums, Martin Mendez on bass (both from Opeth) and mongis on keys rehearsing with Jon Lord.

Public Affairs/Nonprofit Management. yourself? (/how are we not facebook friends haha?)

Cool, I've been looking into Public A myself, but I'll probably end up with international affairs as my double major. Majoring in Political Science(pre-law). Feel free to ad me, haha.

The craziest thing just happened while I was out for a run. I was going down the main street, suddenly this dog charges at me, barks. I know what I have to do, so slowly back away, it retreats OUT INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. Heavy trafficked road. These two dudes hit him going like 40 mph, I scream, dog runs away, I get pissed at the owner. Run over to the guys that now had pulled over, told them we need to find this dog or his owners and get him to a vet hospital. They agree, we go looking for it.. after wondering around for a while we find this lady like doing garden work by the main street, asks her if she had seen a dog. She admits that it's her dog..we go to her house..there it is laying shivering.. ok long ass story..such an absurd situation, turns out one of these guys were raised by the man in the house.. I need to get out of this tiny town.

At least the dog is in good hands now.
