Baaack

Heeey kids.

It's been while, I've been drivin' all over the dang country. Nearly 4000 miles in the last 4 weeks! Man, I am sick of driving. Luckily I don't have to do it much for awhile.

So back on December 13 I drove up with my friend Elizabeth to Arkansaaaas. After kickin' her out in Little Rock I headed on up Petit Jean mountain to hang with the Blackman dudes. It was a fun time, really nice to just be able to hang out and chill without having to run around everywhere all the time like a chicken with my head cut off.

After hangin out there until a day or two after Christmas I drove up to Michigan and couch surfed and partied for a few days. Got to see my homies Martin and Bryan and meet all sorts of other crazy Michigan people. Saw Lake Michigan. It's really huge and, while I was there, really cold. Grand Rapids is a pretty cool city, felt kind of like a bigger Fort Collins.

I could only handle like six days of constant partying in the Michigan winter though, so then I headed back to Holyoke. It was pretty cool, about like I remember. Covered in snow, close to Nebraska. Had lots of fun playin' darts with Wilson.

I got back to NOLA on Saturday, and then spent the next day ferrying people back from the airport. It feels great to be back down here. Seriously, I love this place like crazy. Classes started yesterday, and all of my professors seem pretty ballin'. Both my Spanish professors are actually native speakers, de Uruguay y Cuba. It'll be a change of pace to not be taught by a gringa. Not that I don't like the gringas or anything, just sayin'. My Ancient Philosophy professor seems like a pretty awesome gal; History of Ethics is taught by a genius with one of those pleasant German accents, as opposed to the scary sounding ones; and Professor Welnak for Islamic Philosophy seems like I guy I could totally hang out with. He also seems to know what he's talking about, which is good.

So yeah, life's back to normal now. Keep it frosty, y'all.
