This week, even though it was just starting at the time I am typing this, was starting off as an unusual one. I would only have one class this entire week, and I thought I was in for a week of relaxation. Wrong I was….wrong! I no sooner thought of my new found freedom then I thought to myself, “Hey Sean, remember those 2 papers you have due after thanksgiving break, and that presentation you have to make?” Oh yeah, thank you Chuck Norris. It was at this time that I remembered some side projects I had planned to work on during the break, which includes but is not limited to movie editing, song writing/recording, and killing my roommates. Well all of these had to be sidetracked unfortunately, as I recently just got back into Half Life. I did not realize how close I as to the end when I quit, and I spent a vast majority of my time this week playing it. I played and played until I reached a level known as “Interloper?” I think that’s what it was.

Interesting thing happened last night. My roommate was pulling an all-nighter right before he left for home for the break. But before this we went and saw “Without a Paddle.” It was a lot funnier then I thought it would be, and rather enjoyed it. Unfortunately I saw it at the dollar theater though, and the quality was not as good, but that’s not the bad part. The bad part is the seat I was sitting in was trying to eat me alive. When finally I stood up at the end I tried to crack my back and I could feel the cracking go up my entire spine, it was good though. Well anyways, back to the all-nighter. I went to bed around 5-ish, and it was kind of funny, because as I was wasting my life away in front of my monitor, Brandon signed on. I asked him what he was doing up so late, and he promptly told me he had just woken up for work. It was at this moment that I realized how late it was. Then Brandon disappeared! Just signed off, just like that!

Well while I slumbered I had the most interesting dream. It was a dream that was far beyond weird. I will only give a brief excerpt from it here, to all who want to know the full story you have to ask privately. Well anyways I think I was in the future or something, like futuristic BYU. There were aliens too…I think, I think they were there but I just never saw them, does that makes sense? As I am writing this I am reminded of another dream I had a long, long time ago. I dreamt I was being chased by a Predator in all kinds of places but one local was an airport, and this BYU reminded me of it I guess; anyways back to the dream I had last night. Me and a random person, or it might have been 2 random people, I can only speculate that one of them was me talked to a scientist guy, and he was like…I don’t remember. But anyways later on in the dream I found myself breaking into a store with random people, and the store happened to be in Disneyland. It wasn’t Disneyland until I walked into the store though…weird. Well anyways I left and drove along a highway for quite some time, where I exchanged packages with someone. At this point I will skip ahead, if you want to know what happened in between IM me? Well in my dream I could have sworn I was talking on the phone. Not just any phone mind you, it was my very own penniless cell phone! Driven mad by jealousy! Well I was talking, and then it started to ring. I looked at it and thought to myself, “How is this possible…I’m using the phone, how can it be ringing?” It was at this point in time that I realized, that I wasn’t talking on the phone, but my phone was on my shelf. I reached up and talked to the person calling me, and thought to myself “Where was the transition?” I just can’t remember when I woke up, and can’t really find where reality kicked in.

So after a while me and Sean woke up, and then he was like “I’m going to my Aunt and Uncles for Thanksgiving,” and I was like “Ok.” Well he talked to his cousin’s wife on the phone and she was picking us up. Well I had forgotten she was English, and sitting in the car talking to her, I could barely keep in my English accent. Sean was having a hard time as well I could tell; I knew he wanted to unleash Paul unto this poor defenseless woman.

Well I reached my place of destination, spent the night, nothing much happened. Then THANKSGIVING! A day to feast! We were to go to my Uncles brothers house for a big breakfast that day, and they made these super thin omelet’s and doused them in butter and sugar, and tried to ram them down my throat. Man those were nasty, but fortunately there was plenty of sausage for me to feast upon. After hours later and strenuous preparation the dinner was ready. Eh, it was ok. Went to my cousins and watched a boring movie, went to sleep, nothing eventful. Maybe tomorrow I’ll go to my roommates…Or not.

Put Put Golf?! Put Put This, Hombre! Man I suck at miniature golf.

It’s a beautiful day, did you know that? You know what’s funny? My phone has 0 bars of reception, but I still can make phone calls, no problem…

Oh wow, I went almost the entire week without running or lifting weights at all, fortunately my Uncle has some exercise equipment, so it wasn’t a complete loss. Must finish papers…argh!

I think I am going home tomorrow, I mean no offense towards anyone, but this place isn’t exactly mucho fun, and I like my privacy, something I can not get here.

Holy crap, Steve-N, get me that baby picture, and the MK music pronto! This is turning out to be freakin ridiculous, but I’m sorry I can’t help it. Andrew I need you to finish that number on item on your list! PRONTO!!!

Well I’m back in my room, only one of my roommates is here, the rest don’t come back till tomorrow. Still need to finish papers!!!! ARGH!

Dreams are a funny thing, you know? I mean you have them, and some of them seem to make no sense whatsoever, but it all works out I guess. Really, it does. I mean looking back on these dreams I can see why certain things were happening the way they were. It would be really weird if the few things I did dream about and don’t find any meaning behind were premonitions. But as a wise man once said, “My dreams aren’t premonitions, because I’m dreaming of impossible outcomes.”

Man I just started listening to The Anniversary again, and they so kick butt, I mean they’re just awesome. All of you losers who don’t have their CD’s go get them right now! It sucks though that they broke up.

I was thinking, maybe I wouldn’t be so homesick, if I knew that everyone at home hated me…Yeah… I’m sure that would help a lot.

Today’s SONG PROVIDED BY!!!!!! ELECTRICITY!!!!!!!

”I can’t help it baby this is who I am (am)
and I’m sorry, but I can’t just turn off how I feel (feel)
you kill me, you build me up just to watch me break.
Hey hey, hey hey. I know what I should do but I just can’t walk away…”

P.S. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da just started playing on my songs list, there goes all chance of me spending the rest of the day depressed…darn. Oh wait now it’s Ideoteque, there’s still a chance.
