yesterday was cool. tempo ropes course all day. we left shortly after 7:30. the 'challenges' were fun. the first one involved climbing up a tree, walking across 2 wires about 15 feet up, going across a balance beam about 16 feet up then going down a long zip line over a creek. the second one was better. you had to climb up a 30 foot telephone pole and pull yourself up so that your standing on the 6 inch diameter top. that's a lot easier said than done. it's really hard since you have nothing at all to steady yourself on. it also dosen't help that the pole is wobbling in the wind the whole time. after you manage to steady yourself standing upright balance on the top of a telephone pole 30 feet up you have to jump off and grab a trapeze that's about 5 feet away. took me a while to force myself to jump. heh. i grabbed it with my right hand but my left slipped. that caused my right hand to slip and the force caused me to spiral around. dave (the rope course guy who was spotting me) slowly let me down to the ground. i did the breast stroke as i was descending. it was fun. after that we all went to bj's by vista ridge mall. it was good. i had a meatloaf sandwich. yummy. it was very hearty though and made me drousy. that only worstened the return to school. we got back just in time for band. morgan and i sat in the parking lot behind some cars for a while, trying to stall. we both agreed that band was not what we wanted to be doing. eventually we gave up and went to band. sux0r. band its self wasn't too bad. we improved. i doubt we'll make finals on saturday. oh well. after band i went home and ate kfc that my rents had bought. i love their cole slaw. it is hella good. watched total recall on sci fi. they were having an arnold marathon. that movie is great. it's like a really cheesy version of fight club. kinda. well, not really, but it does have a whole lot of that messing with your head element. it just dosen't pull it off nearly as well. and it's arnold... i mean, he's great at killing and all... but it's arnold... hehe.

today has been boring thus far. in band we improved a little. it's just too little too late. physics was boring. we had a pop quiz. i'm pretty sure i failed it. i don't like this circut stuff. kirkoff was a bum. i hope we move to a new topic soon. now i'm in tap. man... i really wanted to go to chess club today. i even brought my set. i don't even get to play with it. go to government next. plan on getting more reading in 'brave new world' done. creekview game tonight. w00t... i guess... hehe. maybe we'll actually win... maybe... not... i really wish i had a chocolate malt from braums or some similar place right now. that would be good. tis making my mouth water. well i need to stop talking before this blog gets even longer than it alreay is. peace out my homie g's.
