Feb 1 2010, The Lost Gl

I went to the library to study, but in the course of my coming and goings one of my new, warm, fleece gloves went missing. I went frantically searching from the Library security desk, down the RB stairs, into the Smith Fieldhouse, back up the stairs, and finally it was in my Materials class room at the MARB. it was funny cause I was waving at a girl who was sitting in the place I was, and tried getting her attention. She finally threw it, though short, and I had to dart in and back out of some lecture. No shame. I got my glove back!

Sunday studies. Here I am breaking the Sabbath, frantically doing some Chemistry Micro Exams and Moral Leadership reading. No doubt it's late.

Racquetball match friday. Check out those graceful moves and form. I was still weary of hitting against the back wall so I always had to do these sort of moves.

Jan 28 2010, The Churro Challenge!

Ok so these guys were part of some student organization, promoting how easy it was to apply for spring and summer scholarships. The churro challenge was to get the the top of the RB stairs in under 19 seconds. The logic being that applying was that easy. So if you got to the top in under 19 flat, you got a churro. See the stairs to the right? Now multiply that by 5 and you have the RB stairs. I did it in 8 flat with a backpack!

Well this is a typical sight to see in the winter. They plow the parking lots and just pile it up, taking some prime parking, so truckers and jeep owners seize the opportunity to show off their rigs. My roommate David Holgate actually got a ticket one day because he was so far up a snow pile, which was much bigger. The ticket cited unsafe parking, as the reason. It's times like these I wish I had a truck.

So...Birds or work. I couldn't decide on which picture to use. I'm kinda breaking the rules here, but Its my blog so I can do what I want. Here I am in the Richards Building pool, taking some personal time to study Materials notes during a forfeit of an inner-tube water polo game.

The cool thing about these birds was how close I could get to them. I used only one level of zoom to get this with my good ole Kodak CX 7430 I inherited from Mom. These guys were chowing down on those berries, and nothing else mattered. You could almost reach out and touch them. Kinda cool yet strange too see birds out on this cold January winter day.
