Status Update...

So on the website Facebook, (for those of you who don't have one,) they have this little box at the top of your page where you can enter status updates.  A lot of the time, the box becomes the prime example of internet illiteracy and/or "too excited to type words" syndrome.  (i.e. "Katie is OMG!!1! I CATN BELEEVE HE SAYD THAT TO MEEE!!!!!1")

I thought for this blog I'd just do a boatload of updates that kinda paint a picture of what college life has been like recently;


NOTE: None of the updates are in order, I just put them down as I thought of them.  They cover a time period of about three weeks.

Daniel is...

... nervous about his upcoming tests in New Testament, Biology, and Macroeconomics.

... amazed at how much you can learn with two hours, a quiet room, and three or four textbooks.

... mad that Wal-Mart is so incompetent and yet so successful.

... trying to get a job at The Olive Garden, St. Anthony's Hospital, Office Max, and pretty much anywhere else within walking distance.

... afraid that he won't have enough money to make it through next semester.

... just now remembering how much he loves classic Disney movies.

... wondering what the weather's like in Dayton.

... super disappointed at how terribly he preformed at his chapel worship team tryout.

... addicted to the TV show Scrubs.

... frustrated at the low prank potential of his stairwell.

... excited to be drumming at the first Novo service this Sunday.

... trying to get better at Foosball, longboarding, volleyball, football, and pretty much every other activity he sucked at in high school.

... psyched at the results of his New Testament, Biology, and Macroeconomics tests!

... amazed that midterms are right around the corner.

... slightly surprised that there's a homecoming week in college, too (I guess I just never really thought about it....)

... excited for "80's Not-Prom" tonight with the girls from the QuikStop.

... amazed at how easy it is to clean your room if you do it every day.

... bummed that he's finally being charged for loads of laundry.

... learning how difficult it is to play video games with a 3-liter bottle of peach soda duct taped to his right hand.

... so happy to be living in a big city.

... not able to comprehend that fact that he's had 6 flat tires since he got here.

... coming to the realization that he doesn't have enough money to safely buy a season pass.

... astounded at how stubborn the 24 Hour Fitness recruiters are (talk about not able to take a hint!)

... wanting to drop in unexpectedly at DHS for some reason.

... wondering how Sarah's liking her senior year.  (It was my personal favorite.)

... getting his butt kicked by cross country practices.

... happy he doesn't have a car anymore (it makes life a lot simpler, really.)

... wanting to travel the US with nothing but his hiking backpack, a sweet knife, and a husky named Rosco.

... done writing this blog.
