First Day of Classes

But I don't have classes on Tuesday so I slept, watched movies, and listened to Dave Matthews Band instead.

Camp

Long, hot, and painful. Just like it should be.

tonight

was long.
went to gushi korean bbq and got korean style ramen, i got beef in it mindy got it with egg. it was good, but i make ramen better ^^

then drove east towards downtown LA for some famous place called scoops. severely overrated, got the peanut butter ice cream, but i think the gelato and the ice cream at the campus restaurants are just as good if not better. then mindy and I drove to some hill where we could see dodger stadium on one side and the LA skyline (as small as it is) on the other. good view and found a kickass radio station where, for tonight at least they basically had a marathon of songs like "take my breath away" "dont wanna miss a thing" and "Coming in the air tonight." Really cheese 90s love songs. loveeeeed it.

SPRINT TO THE FINISH

GET THOSE FINALS DONE!

Finals!

trying to study for physics but my god is there a lot of material, really not worth it. and then i have to try and memorize a shit ton of stuff for my history class...

Pomona Quotes

I though we were supposed to be super liberal and tolerant.

Sean: Hey Mike, why are your fingernails painted?

Mike: It's for a psych project, we're supposed to paint our nails and then see if people react tolerantly or intolerantly and write a report about it.

Sean: Well you look like a gay.

Mike: Thanks man, you just gave me a great quote for my paper.

"Let me lower your resistance"

awesome physics joke

HEY

IM TRYIN TO LEARN TO PLAY TENNIS! WOOHOO

Things going on with people involved with ROTC

One of the Sgts just got promoted to SSGT! and on top of that his girlfriend (an OC in the unit) is 15 weeks along and they recently announced it to the unit!

and our AMOI loves to walk into the ward room complaining about us and the battalion staff and how we students arent dedicated enough and how he hopes we all die. and he actually screams this and we all laugh and have a good time trying to figure out why hes so upset about how we arent run like an infantry battalion. he says he hates his job and the incompetence of the midshipmen battalion staff (which i am not a part of as of now)

New Dispatch Single!!!

there is a god!

Nipple Hairs are growing back

WHYYY THEY ARE ON BOTH THIS TIME AND IT'S TOO CLOSE TO SHAVE

Living life on the edge...

again.

and in a completely unrelated event sunday morning mindy's family stopped by her room in the morning. and then dropped off Vietnamese BBQ and creme brulee and flan. yum!

The ER

is very slow. I took a friend of mine there last night and we sat around and did nothing from 9:30 PM to 2:00 AM. And after all that it turned out she just had a serious shin contusion, not even a broken leg. Anyway, the worst part was that the hospital only let one person go with the injured person so being a nice guy I volunteered (and to preempt any of you speculating about anything [especially you, mom] she's a good friend who has a boyfriend who's a friend of mine so I wasn't back there for any reason other than friendship). Meanwhile, my friend Alex and Charlotte's (the injured girl) friends Emma and Nikki (who are single) sat in the waiting room and did homework, chatted, Sporcled, and basically just hung out and had a good time while I stood in cold rooms or sat in tiny plastic chairs for hours on end keeping Charlotte company. What was my reward you might ask? While I was back there wheeling Charlotte around in her wheel chair, carrying her crutches, and generally being ignored, another of Charlottes friends came by and dropped of some In-N-Out. Alex, Emma and Nikki of course, being the great friends they are, promptly ate all of it leaving me and Charlotte some delicious paper bags. Eventually, I got home and had to do a bunch of homework and ended up going to sleep at 5:00 and waking up at 8:00 to help a friend in need with his Spanish essay and register for classes. I then skipped breakfast so I could make it to my Econ class on time and then accidentally slept through lunch and well into my chemistry lab, meaning I didn't eat anything from Wednesday dinner to Thursday dinner. And Alex's excuse for not saving me a single french fry: "You were gone for so long ... we kinda forgot about you."

In summary:
What I sacrificed:
- My Wednesday night
- Sleep
- Food
- Chatting up the ladies
- My lab grade
- Sporcle (don't underestimate the value of this one)

What I got:
- A stronger friendship with a girl I will probably rarely see after this year
- ...

Moral of the story: being a good Samaritan sucks.

Me and myself

and I

are having issues. Today my ROTC buddy brenda claimed to have been talking with her sorority sisters about "hot" ROTC guys. Apparently I am on that list and when brenda started describing me her sisters apparently recognized the description and unanimously agreed that I was in fact "hot".

this is an issue. because now i feel obligated to look good, otherwise i will be an even BIGGER disappointment. so wearing nice clothes, not sweating in the LA heat and wearing my brief case properly were all on my mind today as i wandered from class to class. this is really stressing me out, i know many of you will not understand (not to name names but weston), but it is an issue i needed to discuss.

in other news aside from my well deserved large ego include me going to a veterans bingo night to help old veterans play bingo. and apparently i just dont like lab write ups because i had this issue with AP chem and im having the same issue in my Physics lab. shit just aint fly, especially calculating all the error, which i did one calculation on my last report, out of 6.

and yes i turned that bad boy in

Games to look out for: [in order of my excitement :D]

1) Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

2) Mass Effect 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnEej1RfqTs

3) Battlefield 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA378g_gD1I&feature=relmfu

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsHIHxYXeLs&feature=related

but really, Mass Effect and Skyrim are equal-one my character is saved and ready to save the universe, the other is a completely new adventure and character that will slay dragons and possibly cover the world in darkness.

and some cool music:
