Thanksgiving Break
Well I havent posted since ive been on break so i thought i would take the time to do so right now while im sitting at my Aunt’s awesome house watching CSI on a plasma screen with surround sound… very nice setup here, something similar will be in my house… Ill take some pictures and post them up later….
Anyways break started on friday when i drove home.. the drive sucked… took 1.5 hours to get to roanoke when it should have only taken 0.5 hours so i didnt get back to newport news until an hour late… When i got back in town i met the rest of the family at Cheeseburger in Paradise where we ate dinner, highly recommended, great burgers… After dinner i went home and unpacked, settled in and passed out since i was so tired…
saturday, what did i do saturday?
Sunday I went up to W&M and hung out with Angelica which was awesome, watched TV, listened to some music, and fell asleep there… Woke up the next day she went to class and i went home…
Monday, took a shower and headed up to Busch Gardens for lunch with the IT guys, went to Peking, another highly recomended restaurant… AFter lunch we went back and i went to HR to reapply for next season.. I am officially an Octoberfest Area Host! well atleast until i apply for the IT position again.. After HR i went up and said goodbye to everyone and headed back home and ate dinner and hung out…
Tuesday i got up and went to walmart to oil and oil filter for my car, came back home and changed the oil/filter on my car as well as repaired the right front fender well plastic gaurd that was hanging down, so there is no longer orange duct tape holding it up… after finishing the car maintenance i went next door and got my haircut in exchange for some computer help… After haircut i went and took a shower and ate dinner… was going to hang out with angelica but her mom wouldnt let her go out at 7:30 :p so i just hung out at home and talked to her online while i packed some….
Wednesday, today, packed my car up with everything and hit the road around 10AM… traffic really wasnt that bad… never got stuck in any traffic due to accidents, the only time we got stuck was due to large volume of traffic and poorly timed traffic lights going through a small town, i believe it was in West Va, go figure… anyways we got here, my aunts, around 5pm, pretty good time considering we stoped for lunch and gas a couple of times… as soon as we got here is started snowing pretty heavily… first real snow for me of this winter season… the flurries earlier dont really count…. there is about an inch or so of snow on the ground right now… good packing snow to for a snowball fight… So ive been here since then… thankfully they have high speed internet with a wireless router
i dont know what i would do without internet!! Oh also have EV-DO accesss here which is strange because we are almost on the edge of no where and i dont have it anywhere at home or school… cant really do much with it tho, apps download a lil faster
Plan is to head back to VT on saturday morning early. leave between 5 and 6… game isnt until 7:45pm so i have plenty of time to get back…
As far as break assingments, 1 project out of 2 is pretty much completed, just need to write a report and then code the other project… also have a homework assignment to do which hopefully wont take long but i cant do until i get back becuase i forgot my book at school…
hmm about $300 for a trip to Tenn to see Jennifer? anyone want to donate to the trip fund?
