Soccer

I am just now getting into watching soccer. Not so much American soccer but all the international games. I have found a pretty cool application on Firefox that will help you keep up to date on all the games. It is called FootieFox. It is helping me stay up to date at least a little bit. I might need some help from you internationals though.

Have a Fantastic Day!!

REI

If you are an outdoor enthusiast, as most of you are since you work at camp, then you just might fall in love with this store. REI is such a great store. I am in love with Moosejaw as you probably noticed me wearing a lot of their shirts, but REI is also great. My family and I took a trip there today and I didn't expect to buy anything, but lo and behold I walk out spending $50. This is exactly why I need to move somewhere where they don't have one nearby. I feel like a kid in a candy store when I enter the store. My eyes boggle out and I get very giddy. Well I guess that is my two cents for today.

Bubble Tea

If you have never had Bubble Tea you need to quit whatever you are doing right now and go get some. This is so weird but amazing. It is a cold tea where there are tapioca bubbles at the bottom which are chewy. The Bubbles don't taste like anything really but they just add to the effect. I know for a fact that there is a store in Ann Arbor that sells it (I think it is called Bubble Island). It is hard to find places that do carry it. As you can probably tell, I have a huge craving for it right now but of course Midland doesn't have any place that carries it.

The Burj Al Arab Hotel

Alright, so this is basically the most amazing hotel I have ever seen. It is a 7 Star hotel and is located in Dubai which is in the United Arab Emirates. This is such a nice looking hotel from the outside and then the inside is just unreal. Here are some pictures of it. And here is the actual hotel web page. The rooms run about $2,000 a night. There are a couple cheaper and some more expensive but that is about the median. Who would have ever though that I would actually use a math term outside of class?

12 Year Old

Well I am finally back at school, meaning that I can actually write on this again. I just got back from spring break in Florida and am happy to come back to warm weather. One of the best things I saw at Florida was a 47 year old woman win the bikini contest. So take that all you drunk 21 year old whores who barely wear anything down there. Wait, scratch that, the best thing that I saw was a 12 year old do a keg stand on the beach. One of the funniest things ever. He lives at Panama city so he just walked to the beach and got free beer from pretty much whoever he wanted since they all thought it was a brilliant idea to corrupt a youngin. Anyway, School is on the home stretch and it is getting closer to camp time!! So I apologize for coming back to the bloging community and that you will waste some of your precious time reading this stuff. Alright, maybe I'll actually post something worth while next time.

Have a Fantastic Day!!

MS

On April 28 I am walking in the MS (Multiple Sclerosis) walk to help raise awareness and fund research of the disease. I am part of the HASNU (Honorary Accounting Society of Northwood University) team and we are looking for help in raising money for this event. My personal goal is $150 but am sure that we can blow this out of the water. Please give whatever you can and tell your friends also because the more people know about it the easier it will be.

Jump to Conclusions

Today I zoned out in class because my teacher is an idiot and I started to think about how the guy made millions off of the pet-rock. I'm all for making them at camp and what not but to actually buy them would be stupid. After I started thinking about that I transitioned into 'Office Space' mode and the whole jump to conclusions mat.

I would have to say the pet-rock is a prime example of this quote.

Peter Gibbons: Let me ask you something. When you come in on Monday, and you're not feelin' real well, does anyone ever say to you, 'Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays'?
Lawrence: No. No, man. Shit, no, man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man.

Have a Fantastic Day!!

Heart Message

Valentines day went by with nothing extraordinary as usual. But since there is a million pounds of candy on that day I got some from the cafeteria. I received one of the message heart candy's with a message of "GO HOME." Either the messages are now being directed to singles or they have some really lonely people working for them. Anyway, it was a good time and luckily my roommate brought an annoying person over and we were able to share the love of the message.

Stupid Accounting

Yesterday I went into Flint and experienced a new thing, 'Hairspray.' If you have never heard of it, like I never did before getting invited, it is a great play. It pinpoints self-confidence, appearance vs. reality, racial discrimination and had a lot to do with overweight people. It is a new age look on the old problems of the 60's. It is a comical musical but it get a little awkward at times as an overweight African-American family sat right next to us. Luckily they didn't take any offense so all is good. Actually if you look at it all the jokes kind of make fun of the white people for thinking so narrowly and shut-off during that time period. Even though we still face some discrimination today we have come a long way from what it used to be.

If you enjoy musicals you will enjoy this one and I hope you have a chance to see it.

Have a Fantastic Day!!

P.S. (can you even use P.S. on a blog?, eh why not?) It is almost six in the morning and I have yet to go to sleep, still trying to do my accounting homework which gives further confirmation about the Artichoke's post on procrastination on homework.
