It feels like school now

Man, where to begin. Did I mention that my little TV couldn't get fixed so I had to buy a new one. It sucked too cause I had to ride my bike out to the repair shop after they said they might be able to fix it. It took me my second attempt to find it and when I got in they guy told me that it would cost about the same to fix it as it would to buy a new one. So I decided to look around. I looked at a few stores and found some good tvs at decent prices, and then i found this german electronics store. It was huge, even by american standards. Bigger than a big Best Buy with more stuff and fantastic prices. they even had rock band set up and it was connected to one of the biggest televisions I have ever seen. Of course I sit down at the drums to show off my skills, really just to play. I haven't played in so long. Anyway, I was there playing the Nirvana song on expert as per usual. I pretty much rock the place. But here's the thing, when I turned around there was a lot of people who were watching me, who weren't there when I started. I fest sort of cool but there wasn't any reaction to anybody so I put the sticks down and wove my way out of the crowd trying to not to smile too widely. It was a little awkward. So I took a bus back the next day and got a 32 inch tv for the same price it would've cost me to buy a comparable sized tv to my last one. Good purchase and it looks great in my room. And the next day I figured a way to get Swedish programming in my room. So my room is pretty much the common room now, which is cool to a point. last night we were up to like 2:30 watching the third season of prison break. We have four more episodes to go. I'll probably happen tonight.

So there's lots of school work. I should probably be doing school work right now, but I wanted to update my internet friends. And one group is still a headache and the paper is due next Wednesday. I'm so tempted to just write the thing myself and leave the rest of the group in the dust. I know it's an exercise to get me prepared to work with coworkers in the future but it's still very frustrating.

Oh, and I lost my nice umbrella yesterday somewhere which is a real bummer. Seriously, i bought that thing for when we went to Europe a year ago and it was a good one. We had some good times together, mostly because I didn't get wet when I would've with out it, but now it's gone. It made me sad for a little bit. oh well, such is life.

So there you are for now. I hope it was good for you.
