Michael and Matt got in here around 6:15pm or so on Friday evening and we soon after their arrival left to go get something to eat at "Cheeseburger In Paradise" I had the same thing I had before, matt copied me sorta as in he got the some thing but plain and Michael got their Caribbean Sandwich which he really seemed to enjoy since he continued to try to finish it off even after he was already stuffed. Matt made a mess out of his milkshake by spilling it all over the table and Michael and I got a few good laughs out of that. Of course Matt being himself asked the waiter about 30 billion pointless questions, I almost began to feel sorry for the poor guy(the waiter) after a while. Finally after leaving there we headed for the store to get a few items some of which were two six packs of Smirnoff one Black Cherry and one Watermelon. We then headed back to the room and hung out for a while before matt brought up the idea of going to Wal-Mart to see if we could find any good cheap movies and only Matt found anything he wanted. So we headed back to the dorm and got back around 12:30am and Michael and I watched a movie of mine called "The Great Santini" while matt messed around on the computer surfing the internet while watching a few movies that he had bought at Wal-Mart. Michael and I kept making fun of him because of how loud he had the headphones. Michael and I also decided to try once of each of the drinks we bought. The black cherry was ok but I did not like the watermelon at all and could not even finish the one I opened. So I told Michael that he could take the watermelon home with him since he seemed to atleast be able to handle them well enough to finish a bottle of it. After that we got ready for bed and talked for a few minutes before finally falling asleep. The next morning we woke up to find that the Pope John Paul II had passed away. Matt found it very amusing that on the Spanish channels they called him Juan Pablo II. After a few minutes we left the room to head to the cafe to get some breakfast only to find that they had closed early for some reason. So instead we decided to head to the mall. We walked around the mall for a little bit making our way to the food court were we got something to eat. Matt and I had Chick-fil-A and Michael got Mandarin Express or something like that. Once we left the mall we went back to campus and I showed Michael around the place. He seemed to really like the campus because of all of the trees which gave it a wilderness feel to the whole place. Which is one thing that brought me here was the fact that this campus is very secluded and you could easily drive by it, if it was not for the signs, and never know the campus was right next to you. While walking around we went in the Library and went downstairs where you can rent DVD's and such and Michael found a whole bunch of his weird movies that he watches that he has either seen or has been wanting to see. So I am sure the next time he comes up he will probably make a trip back over there and probably rent one or two of them. Afterwards we decided to go to Blockbuster and look through their movies since Matt would get a 20% discount on them since he works at one. I ended up getting "Blue Collar Comedy Tour 'Rides Again'" since I have the first one. From there we went to the store to replace the Watermelon drinks and this time got the Green Apple ones. We headed back to the room and watched "First Daughter" that Matt had rented so Michael could watch it. The movie started out very corny but as it went on it got better but over all it was just an ok movie as it had pretty much the same story line of a million movies before it. While watching the movie I happened to look in the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour 'Rides Again'" case only to notice that the correct movie wasn't in the case the movie "Hooisers" was actually in the case. So once the movie finished Matt and I quickly ran over to Blockbuster to fix their mistake. When we returned Matt left and went and watched some show on VH1 about Green Day while Michael and I started watching "Blue Collar Comedy Tour 'Rides Again'" and broke out some of the drinks. The movie was decent not as good as the first one but had its good moments. After that one ended Michael and I watched the first "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" movie. About a third of the way through that movie Matt walks back in the room claiming that he feels like shit and lays down in the bed only to get up a few minutes later and go throw up in the bathroom. By the time the movie had ended I had four drinks and was feeling it and Michael, only having two because of a headache, took this time to mess with me and make me fall off the bed or bang my head on the wall. Due to the fact that there was so much crap on the floor it made it difficult for me to walk around all that well. Eventually though the effects went away and the rest of the night we pretty much just sat around and talked until about 5am. When I woke up around 11:30am I think it was Michael and Matt were already up though I have no idea how long they had been up by that point. We then headed to the cafe to get some breakfast and this time they were serving. While there Matt ran into this older guy(Norm) that he knew from when he was still going here and Matt offered to give the guy a ride home when he and Michael left. We came back to the room and they packed up their stuff and left around 2:45pm or so to head home.
Last night this campus went nuts when North Carolina won the NCAA National Championship game beating Illinois 75-70. North Carolina is pretty much our parent school here so there are strong ties between us and them. It was during that game that I realized I must like to see people be miserable as I was rooting for Illinois to win just so I didn't have to listen to all these people around here making a huge ruckus over the game.
Tomorrow I sign up for classes and I have narrowed my schedule down to two choices only differing in one Class. First choice I would be taking my second try at Calc. II, Physics I, ATMS 320 (instruments used in meteorology), and Humanities 324. My Second choice the first three classes would stay the same but instead of Humanities 324 I would take ATMS 232 (Physical Climatology). Both schedules equal 14 credit hours which I figure is enough with Calc. II and Physics I on them.
