Rock Climbing

So, tomorrow we are going to be rockclimbing for the Outdoor Pursuits class. I did this once at the beginning of the school year, made it to the top, came back down and vowed I would never do that again. It was pretty scary, but tomorrow i'm nervous because our own classmates will be spotting eachother. It could be fun, and it is a rush, but i'm pretty nervous. I also remember it being a very good work out, so I guess I am excited about that.

vcr's

Barely anyone has VCR's anymore. In my public speaking class, we are required to have a video tape so we can record ourselves while giving our speeches. He asked who all watched theres, and who didn't. Barely anyone raised their hands. He asked why, and everyone said they don't have a VCR at home or at school. I think it's kind of interesting how fast people move away from old technology and are all about dvd's now.

guitar hero

I think guitar hero is probally one of the best games invented. I love playing it and can't wait to when I go home. I know that sounds lame, but at least I don't have it up at school. If I did, I bet I would play it all the time. It's actually good for coordination skills I think. It could be kind of educational with information on music and is a way to learn who sings what songs, and what kind of music they play.

where to live next year.

Finding a place to live next year is becoming extremely frustrating. My two best friends live in cooper street and don't want to share bedrooms so they don't want anyone else to move in. This leaves me with my roomy right now. She is not willing to buy cable or Internet which at least the Internet is a necessity. I am just very frustrated, because whoever else I could live with lives at the IVY or Stonecrest, or the Heights etc. All the places that I cannot afford. I'm hoping soon to find somwere to live hopefully with someone I know or would like to actually live with. I would be happy to be near my best friends at cooper street which would be nice. So hopefully I find somthing soon.

I hate cold weather.

I'm really starting to hate winter and the weather more than I ever did. I cannot stand the cold anymore. The other day my roomate and I walked back from the arc, and my face was literally purple. I tried to cover it up, but it wasn't working too well. It makes me wonder why I did not go to school out of state like down south. I would prob. be more happy in a different climate, but the only reason I like the snow is so Christmas feels like Christmas. Other than that, I hate it.

The Arc

I just realized recently how much I love the arc at Slippery Rock. I always want to work out, and used to be somewhat lazy with it and only work out when I felt out of shape rather than all the time. When I went home for Christmas break, I missed the Arc so much. Sure, there are other gyms to go to in Butler, but I just love the choices of equipment that our gym at Slippery Rock has. I now take advantage of having such a fully equipped gym and want to live up here this summer just so I can go there every day. It makes you feel so good about yourself, and really gets you in shape fast if you get there very often.

my cell phone is horrible.

So, my cell phone had it's battery replaced like 3 times already. I just got a new one at the beginning of the fall semester. My phone kept dying everytime I charged it and after I would make one phone call. I took it in yesterday to get a new battery and the guy said it should be fine, because they last a year. He took a look at it and said it was bad. They then charged me 40 dollars for a new battery. I think that if the battery is already dead when it is supposed to be lasting for over six months longer, that I should not have been charged that much.
