Life, Lameness, and Losing to a Girl

Sorry I haven't written in a while. I'm making an attempt.

Noticed I didn't mention some other things that were happening during when I wrote those two previous posts. Wasn't much to say though. Just had been working for Northern California Resource Center since the beginning of February. Basically I just piled sticks and crap. Well, not crap. Anyways, the only other thing I can recall was when a stupid doe sprinted out in front of me one early morning, smashing up a vital part of the BMW, so a lot of time has been spent trying to fix that. That was pretty aggravating. Did cause me and my little brother to bond more though, since we would carpool all the time. That was nice.

Did all that up until earlier this month (September) when I came here to Rexburg to try my hand at the school thing again. It's been pretty stressful and a little depressing getting into it again because I didn't know what I was doing last time I was here and I'm definitely not any better now since it's been a while. Pretty rusty. One of the classes I'm taking, though, is just so ridiculous. It's about as serious as a high school class; but that's understandable I reckon since the teacher does teach at some high school normally. Math is lame. But it is good to be back. I've always thought that Rexburg was interesting for some reason.

During my mission and even afterwards I was pretty good at not having any real attachments or longings for new medias, or whatever you call them, that had been created while I was gone. The first Transformers movie was the only movie I ever really remembered to watch afterwards, but I was good at not thinking about it. And even Halo 3, something I was even more into, never really crossed my mind. Even after I got back, I didn't play it very much.

Well, Halo Reach came out half way through the month. Having no xbox 360 of my own, and only playing the game the few times I was at Taron's place, has made me a little crazy. Ended up getting a bunch of screenshots from the game onto my computer to use as a desktop theme and screensaver, so I'm often times reminded of the awesomeness that Halo Reach is. I even felt deprived enough to look at some gameplay stats online and dink around with putting together some kind of display from one time I played with Sam and Taron. Don't judge me. I just have an interest now since the mission days. :)

Anyhoo, can't think of what else to say. Really appreciate the help that Mitch T and Sam and Taron have given since I've been here.
