Like a referee with a whistle

So let's get the sports stuff out of the way. Jay Cutler was traded from the Broncos to the Bears today. I was sad to see him go, I will admit, but more sad because of the quarterback we got for him, Kyle Orton. (I really hope I look back on this a year from now with Kyle Orton being my new favorite player). We also get a first round pick plus some others in this year's draft. (Fingers are now crossed for somehow getting Mark Sanchez from USC). Now, I am REALLY interested in the draft. It was a tradition for a while to watch it at Kelly's, but somehow that has faltered.

On to more serious news, my sister and brother-in-law will in fact, not be coming this weekend. Everything was working out and then a personal conflict came in to keep them from coming. I wish them the best in the upcoming week and take it as a sign for me to start studying this weekend for my test on Thursday. Will I? Honestly, with Fast and Furious and Wrestlemania this weekend, plus the fact that we still have Resident Evil 5, probably not. But I will try.

*UPDATE: I made a 79 on that psych test I have been talking about. Instead of saying I made a C, I like to frame it as I was one point away from a B. Which I am happy about :)

Speaking of RE5, I really like this game. I like how we are pacing ourselves too. Definitely worth the almost 12 dollars it is costing to rent it this long.

I am listening to pandora for the first time in probably a month. The station I am currently listening to has Minus the Bear and Death Cab for Cutie. I recommend it.

I think I am about to start "searching" for people with the same favorites as me. So be warned: If you put down Taking Back Sunday as your favorite music, chances are you are getting a good looking at.

Here is some good news: My true BFF (Best Female Friend) should be here next weekend. It would be nice to spend more than 20 minutes at a time with her (which is usually my fault).

I am 70% sure I am going to UPC's "High Rollin on the Plains" tomorrow. Hopefully it will be fun...

Random lyric of the day:

Because I fell in love with the girl at the rock show.
She said "What?" and I told her that I didn't know.

Hold on to that feeling

What a crazy, crazy day...

*Feel I did ok on my test. First time I answered all the short answer questions, so that's a good thing. Still, I went to talk to her before this test to try and get help and if I don't do good I feel like I will disappoint her. We'll see

*Got in to my other psych class and realized that we had an article review done that I was completely oblivious to. Nice. Just got it done a few minutes ago. And I just had a hard time trying to spell minutes.

*Originally had a quiz scheduled for next Monday in my press, law and ethics class. Got moved to April 13th. I also have a "case briefing" that day where I have to present a court case to the class. In my recent style of forgetting things, that just so happens to be the day I have tickets to go see wrestling in Atlanta. I figured before I took the blow and sold them I would at least ask him and see if there was anything I could do. He said I could come to his office the Friday before or Monday of and take the quiz and VIDEO TAPE MY PRESENTATION. As if that embarrassment is not enough, his office is located in Montgomery.

*Got my paper back in feature writing today. I made a B, a grade that normally I would be upset about, but considering I literally did it the night before, I can't complain one bit. I feel I am starting to take pride in my work because when he wrote comments on my paper, he talked about things I should have added and I totally agreed with him. So much that I almost got disappointed in myself that I didn't think to add them in on my own. Same thing happened the other night in the studio. I made a couple mistakes that when I first started out last summer were no big deal, but that's just it - i'm not just starting anymore. I shouldn't be making stupid mistakes like playing a song while another song is already playing.

*Speaking of music, and wrapping up my day, a friend came over to play Rock Band because she wasn't happy at the moment and needed to get out. Everytime she comes over we are guaranteed to play two songs -- "Bounce" by The Cab and "Down With The Sickness" by Disturbed. We actually failed the Sickness because her friend wasn't good. Haha, that sounds mean but it's always funny when people are like "i'm not very good" and then Frisco picks up the guitar and puts it on expert.

Also, good times -- when Frisco left tonite and I had the house to myself, I decided I would get on the mic. I belted a setlist that included "The Kids Aren't Alright" by The Offspring, "Sweetness" by Jimmy Eat World, "Black" by Pearl Jam and the newly downloaded "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. It is fun putting on a concert when no one is around.

On sad news, it looks like it is confirmed. I will never see the following picture on a football field again:

Just like the picture looks, dude is unhappy. So goodbye. It's sort of sad news because I did like the guy. But really sad news because I have no idea who our quarterback will be now

Random lyric of the day:

If you run away now,
Will you come back around?
And if you ran away,
I'd still wave goodbye
Watching you shine bright.
