Where's Rachaela?

I haven't heard from Rachael in a long time. Haven't been seeing many comments if at all. I just want to know if she was eaten by a polar bear or something.

hola

The last few weeks I have been hearing all kinds of things that I find confusing. First there was someone who told me that Graphic Design didn't pay well and not to go into it. Then someone told me that it is not a "hot" field right now. Someone else told me that they were told by a career guidance person that it was a 'hot' field. My aunt is in graphic design and she was making around $35 an hour when she used to work full time....in fact when she tried to quit, her boss paid for setup in her house so that she could still do work while at home. Dad says that it all depends on how good you are. Part of me just wants to quit and go into an easy money career like nursing where I know I would be good and wouldn't have a problem finding a job. But another part of me says "screw the critics, I'll be good if I have to draw 50 hands and 500 buildings a day." I will get a job....will...
Or I could just go be a missionary in some third world country...so many options....I wish that God just dropped a letter from the sky that had the instructions for your life written on it. I want to follow his will... but I don't know what it is...I just guess and go with what seems right...mmmm that sounds highly subjective...anyways art...graphic design...just seems right. Even if it doesn't make sense all the time. Of course there is always the fear in the back of my mind that I am just doing what I want and ignoring all the signs telling me to go in the opposite direction.
This has been your "Sarah is thinking out loud and putting it into writing for the whole world to see" session. Hope you enjoyed it.

This is a link to the movie trailer I edited in Film class. That's right, Google has even accepted this great masterpiece.

Spoilers:
Just to tell you, I shot the matrix scene, and pay attention to what happens 38 second into it, and I am a runner too.

Spring Break in Quebec

Your first reaction to this post might be about drinking, but that is actually not the intention of it. I was just talking to a girl I recently met, Kathleen Hilker, and since both of us have some French education (me almost none, but still) we were thinking about how great it would be to go to nearby Quebec to get some French culture experience. (Now Jill Thelen wants to go too). Of course I remembered how y'all want to go to Canada anyway, so we thought maybe it would be a good spring break trip. It seems like it won't work out for this semester, and since 4 of us (her included) go to LCC, we have the same spring break. Now, I don't mean to exclude John or Paco or Ben, but I think that with that many of us having the same schedules, we can work something out for all of us. We will have to get the spring break dates for Western and St. Thomas as soon as we can. So, what do you think? And Kenric and Rachael, you should come also! If you are interested, tell us your spring breaks, and we will make something happen! Oh wait, I forgot Sarah will be at Central...well we will need to get their dates too, so that she and Jennifer can come also. And Kyle and Jarud, if you guys check this, make sure you don't have to work and get us Baker's dates. Wow, there are a lot of people and colleges represented here! This is crazy. Wouldn't it be great to have one big convoy heading out to Quebec for a week? Yes!
Even if only a few days...whatever we can work out. Is that everyone? Hey, invite anyone else you can think of too!

Whoot!

Alright, this is John rejoicing, life is officially good. Not to say it was bad, but I'm officially out of the danger zone. As of a few hours ago I am a full time employee of Portage city for the next few months. John is no longer a poor sap who is a barnacle on the under belly of society, slowing down the ship and sucking up valuable resources while contributing nothing. No, this is the case no longer, I shall now be a value adding particpant in the world, making sure that our streets are free of leaves! I can now buy food without fear that I wouldn't be able to pay rent. I no longer have to stay awake at night deciding who I would rather not pay, Dad or the government. I have an income now, and more importantly, something to do all day. Sitting around with nothing to do sounds like fun, but it gets old after awhile. And with that said, I bid you adu.

What's up with this?

Alright guys, driven priniciply by the fact that no one has made a half decent post, let alone apost in a while, and because I haven't seen or spoken to any of you in a while I'm making a post. I'm also going to tell you all what I'm doing because it'll fill some space. I think I got a job (thats right, I'm still unemployed. "how is the rent getting payed?" you ask. Well... I don't know but it seems to and I'm still alive), but any way I think I got a job. Fall leave pick-up. I'll be that guy who works for the city carrying a leave blower and riding on the back of a garbage truck picking up leaves, but its a 7-3 kinda job only five days a week which means plenty of time to go on awsome trips and hang out in the evenings with my girlfriend.

Thats a picture of her too, we went to a doughnut shop and that doughnut she's holding is about the size of a dinner plate. Her name be Christine Venner, and I'm trying to get her to come out to Fowler to meet ya'll. She's game, it just that she actually has a life and things to do, unlike me.
So now I'm going to post another picture... This one'll work,

we were making puppy chow in her room. We didn't use a recipe, so we didn't knwo how much sugar to use. It turns out that you only need, like, two cups, but we used almost the whole bag.
And I just remembered some fun stories. Right now I'm not a student as you all know, but Christine is, and she gets all sorts of e-mails about coloqium talks. She doesn't like to goto these (or more specificly she'ld rather do homework) so she tells me about them and go (they aren't mandatory or anything, I just think they are so cool). So, I'm going to the talks with titles like "auto-ionizing states and their relevance to ion-electron interactions" and others that I don't recall. But so first off it's funny that I'm going because even the students don't go, but to top it off I keep showing up at the receptions and these people are so cool about it. I'm standing around talking to professors and the chair of the physics department and they ask things like, "what classes are you in?", or "how long have you been and western?", and I just laugh and say, "I'm not even a student". Then the best one was when I went ou to dinner at Olive Garden after one of these talks with a bunch of professors, graduate students, and a visiting proffesor from Berlin. I had so much fun, these people are so freeking smart.
And now I'm goign to throw down some song lyrics because it reminds me of dancing in the park, and then take off because I'm in the library and I'm expecting a call from Christine in a sec.

it's her hair and her eyes today
that just simply take me away
and the feeling that i'm falling further in love
makes me shiver but in a good way
all the times i have sat and stared
as she thoughtfully thumbs through her hair
and she purses her lips, bats her eyes as she plays,
with me sitting there slack-jawed and nothing to say
coz i love her with all that i am
and my voice shakes along with my hands
cause it's frightening to be swimming in this strange sea
but i'd rather be here than on land
yes she's all that i see and she's all that i need
and i'm out of my league once again

Great song; Out of my league by stephen speaks

homework is totally freaking me out guys. argggg i don't have enough time. my shoulders hurt from being on a computer so much.
