Well, this season of intramurals floor hockey at SAU was awesome!  I was on a great A-league team

…

Wow.  This is a post that I had to leave unfinished a long time ago.  That’s sad.  Well, anyway, I was going to say that our team won the championships.  We beat every team in the league by at least doubling their scores every time.  Except one team.  We tied.  So we played against the team we tied with earlier for the championship.  We tied.  Then we went to sudden death overtime.  After about three minutes, we got a shot in!!!!!!!!  Hooray!  Well, now the news is old.  Now the news is that when the yearbook came out, it failed to recognize that we had won, and concluded that we had tied our final game.  It also said that hockey is Canada’s national sport.  Right.  Any Canadian could tell you it isn’t!  La crosse is the national sport of Canada.  There were also a couple of spelling errors on the floor hockey page.  Hows that for insult?

Robby told me to write this.  He normally writes down the random things I say, like “these socks are worthless”, etc.  So.  Here we go:  ”Okay, there are people who are double-agents.  Then there are people who are triple agents, pretending to be double agents to get information.  What about quadruple agents?  Or quintuple agents?  What if someone were an icosa-agent (icosa=20, in case you were wondering)?  Would that really work?  Or would he even be trusted by anyone at that point?”

Anyway, Robby laughed for a while.  I didn’t think it was that funny.  Or was it and I’m just ruining it with all this chatter?  Whatever.

Apple Crisp

Some apple crisp, just for Deadpikle.

Horrible title, I know.

Okay, I’m gonna bring everybody up to date on me.  Because I know everybody wants to know.

I have switched major/minor over the last couple of weeks.  I am no longer a Mass Communications major.  I was not good at it, and it wasn’t what I thought it would be.  I thought I would learn some helpful things for my future career as a music producer, but that’s not even close to true.  It’s all about journalism.  So I actually dropped that major last semester.  But this semester, I wasn’t thrilled with my other (yes, I had two) major, Business Administration.  I hated it.  In fact, not even the upper division classes looked even remotely interesting, as all my business friends were trying to convince me.  They couldn’t get me to believe that the future looked good in business classes.

So.  I’m now a Computer Systems Administration major, with a minor in Music (vocal performance).  I know I don’t need to capitalize the names of majors, but it keeps it easier to read.

Anyway, I think I’ll enjoy that sort of thing.  I’m already working at a computer lab… oh yeah, and I’m the assistant manager at the lab.  I forgot to tell you guys about my promotion.  Sorry ’bout that.

I also got a job at the college radio station, as an announcer!  That happened on Monday, so you aren’t far behind on that.  I’ll be sticking around SAU this summer and working at the lab and at WSMC (it’s a classical music station, and for the summer I’ll be mostly training, and they also have online streaming, in case you’re interested).

Exciting things are happening!  Yay!  And I’m also going to Brazil for two weeks after school’s out.  But you already knew about that, right?!  Just go to my “donate” page (donate.room2593.com) in case you haven’t read.  It’s going to be a fantastic choir tour!

We actually just had our Spring Concert in I Cantori on Sunday.  Or was it last Sunday?  I think so.  Anyway, (oh, yeah it was, ’cause last week was Sonrise…) it was fantastic.  My folks got to come down (10 hour drive, too), and so did StephenBarryTellem!  If you don’t know Stephen, you need to visit here more often.  Or go to his blog at stephen.room2593.com.  He’s my former roommate, and he may be coming back to SAU next year….  We hope.

Well, we all went on a ginormous picnic (my family, Stephen, Robby, his coworker and his coworker’s roommate, my girlfriend, her roommate and suitemates, and of course, me) at a great mountainous, riverious park here in Tennessee.  I shall put some pictures here for you….

Stephen, Robby and I made a new A. Watkins video, which we haven’t had the time to post.  It’s not nearly as good as the rest, but Stephen was really pressed for time.  In fact after we shook hands at the end, Stephen was gone.  He had to go back to SC.  Boo.  Anyway, we’ll get that to ya soon.

I hope I remembered everything.  Well, here are the pics:

If the Internet will allow:

Goodness!  It’s slow:

All the Room2593 folks for your viewing pleasure

This is everybody (minus my dad, the photographer) on a large rock, enjoying the beginnings of the picnic

Welcome home Stephen Barry!  I know you’re coming tomorrow, but I decided to welcome you now, anyway.  I have work tomorrow from 4:45 to 10:00 p.m., so you’re gonna have to go to Summerhour to see me when you get here.  Robby and I are planning to sleep in a bit (til 9 a.m., anyway), so we can stay up and talk.  Oh yeah, do you want the couch or the floor?  Well, I guess we’ll see you tomorrow!
