I've been at college now for a few days now, well four now I think. The first two were adjustment days, and the weekend was chill out in the room, then today was the start of classes.
My long sword fencing class is going to be amazing. It's the 14-15th century longswords, so like this:
So when I feel like it, and have a sword readily available, I'll be able to beat up some bad guys. Then my Architecture professor didn't show up for class, causing the 200+ students to lose an entire day of lecture. I was upset, I paid for it, I want my knowledge. Then I had physics which seems like it may end up being too much like high school physics and will be super easy. But I couldn't fit the other one into my schedule so I guess I'll survive.
I just talked to my neighbor bud for a few hours, and he's a rad dude.

Love of Mine

I'm leaving for college in a few hours and I'm realizing now how much I love Hillsboro. I always thought I'd love to leave, but right now I'm very content with being here. I'm going to miss it. But you see, it's not far away from where I am, only 2 hours or so, so why does it seem to be playing out like I'm dying, or going to africa to live with Pygmies? I'm not dying, and I'm not going to Africa, I will be a phone call away from everyone and the only thing that will be changing is I won't get to see everybodies lovely faces.

Here's something new, For the past month and a half maybe, I've loved everything, there hasn't been a single thing I didn't appreciate. It's like I finally woke up and realized how wonderful the world can be, and ever since then I've been seeing it that way. Last night I watched the moon and I couldn't get over how beautiful it was, or the entire area where I was. I kept saying "wow" and "man." Take a minute to appreciate life, it's very worthwhile.

I guess my next entry will be from an official college student. I've grown up. I listened to Death Cab's new CD plan last night, I like all of it, here's a song I like alot and now will have a very fond memory that will trigger everytime I listen to it, which will be a lot.

"I Will Follow You Into The Dark"

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles brusied by a lady in black
And I held my toungue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
The blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark
