I'm going to the University of Illinois for sure next year. (My parents and I chose it over Carnegie Mellon; I'm not just stuck there or anything.) I thought that was an important enough thing to write down here... :PI guess I'm not really into blogging much anymore. Perhaps when I get to college I will be. If I tried to blog now, the entries wouldn't end up telling you too much more than

How exciting! If you were wondering, here are my resolutions for 2006. I think they went okay, except for the dream one. It's not too surprising; I'm kinda lazy.So anyway, here's what I've decided.I resolve to:Continue to improve at drawing. Just like from 2005. :)Beat a bunch of RPGs! Hmm... I might be kidding.Oh this one can be a secret! I bet Marquis can figure it out.Do plenty of

I'm going to drop Physics second semester. Noam et al seem to feel a strange nostalgia for being totally lost every day in Physics C, but that is not really a feeling I want to cultivate. So I was considering taking Anthro instead, but after talking to my mom about it, I remembered that the only time I've ever failed an important test was in Mr. Vaughn's history class... so no. My two choices

So my parents decided that I can't go on the habitat trip (they feel there are other volunteer opportunities in the community, they don't want to pay that much, other people are willing to go too so if I go the work will still get done, etc.). However, they will let me go to the GUSTER CONCERT on Feb. 21, the Wednesday of Agora Week! It's going to be SO AWESOME.I guess I better get that paper

Yesterday, I watched a U of I volleyball game half-asleep (you would think it would matter enough for me to pay attention to...) and came home and slept for 14 hours. Am I ready to take on a research paper, college apps, and java homework?Maybe.

That is, I am dedicating this blog post to Annie! I would love to post more. I wish I had blog-worthy ideas come to me every day, but it just doesn't seem to happen anymore. How can I talk about my social life? It changes all the time--or doesn't change, depending on how you want to look at it--and even if I talk about it with everyone, I don't really want to say things explicitly about it on

In about 20 minutes it will be Halloween, the best holiday ever! I am so ready for the awesomeness! Here's an outline of some of the cool things that will be happening:I get to wake up and put on a totally cool costume (except for the facepaint; I better wait until after fitness for that)Orchestra: party!At 3: party!With Aria after school: party!With Aria: trick-or-treat (a.k.a. candy party!)At

I've been working a lot on college apps today. While stopping by Carnegie Mellon's website to find their policy on supplemental teacher recommendations, I noticed that it got totally remade! FINALLY! It used to be one of the lamest college websites ever, but now it looks pretty good. I suppose it's worth noting that the undergraduate site hasn't changed, but that looks all right anyway.After

I joined Facebook yesterday. People have been trying to convince me to do this for awhile, but I guess it was TANYA who finally convinced me. Maybe she just made me realize that I was not joining Facebook for no reason.Okay I better get some stuff done...

I have not posted in awhile. This is mostly because I have been fairly busy lately. Last weekend, I went to Indianapolis to get interviewed by a University of Rochester guy. That was kind of cool. (I also went shopping.) The weekend before that, I stayed overnight at Grinnell. At the moment, my college list looks like this (in order of preference):Carnegie MellonUniversity of

There's a home volleyball game tomorrow; I think it's the last Friday home game of the season. That means everyone should go!I was taking a lot of videos in English today, hehe. Here's one of Luke.

I have decided to start posting amusing videos of people on YouTube. This will be a much better use of my camera than taking pictures of Jono, Luke, and Mr. Rayburn in English class. My only video up right now is a video of Mr. Sutton I took last year. It was good timing on my part.All right, time to go to sleep.

Independent labels suffer most from the major label monopoly-- major labels' pay-for-play domination of radio makes it impossible for independent musicians to get airplay, confining independent artists to the margins. Reading this on Downhill Battle helped organize my thoughts on why I dislike major record labels and why indie music rocks. Here's what happens. Artists sign to major labels

For the past few days, Stephen--the lead singer of The Living Blue--and I have been sending e-mails back and forth about a new website for the band! I'm going to be redoing their current site, which uses flash, but I'll just edit the preexisting code. It's not like I really have time for this, but it is just SO AWESOME that I am doing it anyway. Perhaps I should get my Calc done before school

I suppose I should mention that this blog now includes a list of recent del.icio.us links in the sidebar. I plan to link to vaguely interesting articles, blog posts, and that sort of thing.

Both the new R.E.M. collection and the new Radiohead DVD are available for preorder! How excellent. I definitely have to at least get the R.E.M. thing...So today was a Volleyball tournament. I don't feel like talking about it, though; you can ask Annie if you are interested in stories from it or something. It went fine.I have so much work I need to do: a bunch of Japanese to memorize, some

I told Marquis yesterday that I wouldn't blog until he did, and now that he has I suppose I better post something. So. Calc test tomorrow, Volleyball game Friday (so everyone should go), tournament all day Saturday, Physics quiz Friday, Volleyball games every day next week except Wednesday (a college meeting thing).

First off, this is totally awesome.Last night I went to Best Buy to get a case and some earclip-style headphones (a picture of which I cannot find on the Internet). I also saw Snakes on a Plane! Pretty cool.All right, time to eat breakfast and go to Volleyball practice...

Today was our first Volleyball game! It was pretty fun, even though both JV and Varsity lost in 2 games. (Both of our second games were better than our first games.) Noam was there, cheering REALLY LOUDLY. :DOn Saturday we have an all-day tournament of five games. It's a good thing we have Monday off; I have a lot of stuff to get done. And on Friday I get to go on a very important adventure

As an afterthought, the Howdy Hop was indeed better than any other dance I've been to since the Valentine's Day one. Interesting.Last night I didn't get any homework done (no Calc homework due today or tomorrow, but there is that quiz...) or go to bed early. I didn't even get to go to Best Buy--ugh, parents.It's been a year since Hurricane Katrina. It really doesn't feel like it's been that

Marquis found a nice link for me that told me how to get iCal to subscribe to my Google Calendar! This is useful because that means I can have it on my iPod. I'm sure, however, that everyone else already has done this and I am just ridiculously behind the times.Also, I thought of a good use for those chumby things: put in a better battery and attach it to your locker!
