Today Was a Good Day..

You know, like the song by Ice Cube.

Ice Cube's Song. What you thought I wouldn't do this?

Just got a new Blu-ray player and man does it look awesome. The picture and the sound and the colors are so sharp, all you feel is you in the same place the movie is. Yup, saw Wanted on blu-ray, Amazing! All the gore and slo-mo action for everyone. The best part was watching it on a big screen tele with impeccable surround sound.

To further enhance my good day was a win from playing Scrabble, eating leftovers from Thanksgiving and having Sweet Potato Pie with Ice Cream, Whip Cream and SilkNog. FTW (For The Win)!

I almost forgot, today I was looking back, thinking about some of greatest encounters I've had with people. I kept landing at NYLc last summer in DC. That 10 day trip was like no other. I met some of the greatest people ever and we will all probably stay friends till death. Alot of people come to mind, especially my LGM (Leadership Group). We went by the name of Roosevelt. We had alot of good memories in the group; playing games to break the ice amongst us, talking about random topics and from that we chose who would be in the top leadership position for the scenario. I vividly remember the first day. I was as always being myself, talking, getting to know each and everyone there. My roommates were awesome, funny and woke you up if you kinda overslept. Haha. the first people I met were sitting at a table who would soon be a part of my leadership group and then those who I would hang out with too.

There were so many people who I could talk about, but that would take up so much time. So I will briefly talk about a few people. Jeff- My brotha till the end, so cool, and so much in common. See you soon man. Wimbo- Great breakdancer, spits so much game (you know it to be true. :) ) and is an awesome person. Can't wait to see ya! Cody- great roommate (except that one time with the pepsi bottle. Wimbo knows too...), funny and nice to be around. Ariel, Issac, Adam, Tyler, Jacky ,etc- Awesome people, we gotta hang out again. Ariel and Issac, let's not try to get lost like last time. Haha.

Brent- You are the best Faculty Advisor Ever! Keep up the good work. :D

Sammi, Tori, Alycia, Mimi- you gals are wonderful. I remember the Abercrombie thing where you wanted me to dress up. Haha. I can't wait to see yall again. It was fun when I did. :)

I don't know, but I'm beginning to feel so happy after writing this. I know that I can sleep with a smile.

Signing Out,

P.S.: To everyone I didn't mention, I want to say that you guys are awesome too!!

One Late Night...

Hey all,

First off, I want to say to all those people who say, "forget about sleep" (yeah you know who you are), that you must be either dillusional or insane or a mixture of the two. (I've seen that mix before- not pretty. Not. At. All.) Sleep is necessary for everyone to complete their everyday tasks with ease.

Now that's off my chest, off to the main event.

3 things occured that contributed to my late night:

1) Listening to great music. Lupe Fiasco, The Clash, The Beatles (of course, the cliche'), Trapt, The Fall of Troy, etc, etc. If you haven't heard of any of these people then you must be under a rock. If you don't like them, well that's your opinion, and if you want to make a negative comment- save it, I don't bode well with negativity. Oh there will be a music list too in the near future.

2) Listening to great music while helping my mom take a test in Pathophysiology. Pathophysi-what? Is that a real subject you ask? Why yes! Yes it is. But it is a subject I dread along with any other subject involving nutrition. Remind me to hire one of those people. That alone was a two-hour scavenger hunt trying to find answers to these rediculous questions. Like trying to find a needle in the Pacific Ocean. Did I mention the Pacific Ocean?

3) Listening to music while helping my mom create a snazzy website. Do I have pictures you say? I do but the project is kinda under wraps. I will try to inform you all about it when it's done? Sorry.

4) And number four considering the fact that I lied about have 3 things that kept me awake, would be listening to music while typing up this blog. (Well hello, that's a given considering your still up anyway.) With that being said, this technically doesn't count so don't bother reading this one. I bet you read this whole thing didn't you? Too bad, your brain has turned to mush. Don't blame me, just blame your eyes.

Call me crazy, but I see a pattern. Do you? It's quite obvious. If you guess correctly you win a prize!!

...Except that prize is only that small joy of satisfaction of answering a question correctly.

Aside from all that nonsense, I can't stop pondering what I should do for my next project. Should it be a limerick, typography, illustration, a combination of the three, I just don't know.

Because I have nothing else to rant about and because I bored you to death with all of this text, I leave you with this. If you have any ideas, let me know. Not much of an ending right?

Signing off again,

Carter.

P.S.: Man am I tired. It's what 1:51 am. Great Scott! Haha.
