Thanksgiving at McDonalds?


So thanksgiving has come and gone once again. On wednesday, everyone left our floor except 5 other guys. out of 50 guys only 5 stayed. Jason came in and said "so we're the only ones here" and that's all the human interaction i had until friday night. I went to mcdonalds thursday for lunch and then to the grocery store where i bought a microwave dinner for dinner. Then on friday, i took a train to my friend melissa's relative's house. Melissa met me on the platform and we went and had dinner at her grandma's withall of her cousins and stuff. it was awesome to actually have real food in front of me once again. But i swear that next year I am buyinga plane ticket home. I am still debating on my major. This wednesday, i'm meeting with the person who gets the graduates jobs after college. We're gonna talk about the pros and cons about music and el ed. w/e we'll c. well i'm going to church now. I'll write later.

at the end of the day..

there's been a lot happening. i'll start from the beginning. missy arrived on the 10th a friday. midway is way in the suburbs and it took 45 minutes to get out there. we got back and it was raining. we decided to go see some stuff in her forst few hours. we went to get her a hat because it was raining so hard. our entire bodies were completely soaked. all of our clothes were sticking to us because it was so wet outside. we got her the hat at the hancock tower at northface. then we came back to campus and hung out. on saturday we got up and went to my starbucks and then to Johnny Rockets 50's diner. (I'll take you if you come out here) it was soooooogooood. then we went sight seeing forever. we finally decided to go to Giordanos for dinner. We arrived and were told that there would be an hour and a half wait plus the 40 minutes for the pizza to cook. we decided to go to the Amazon Rainforest Cafe instead. Talk about spendy. it was loud and somewhat cool but the prices were outrageous. then we came back and fell asleep instantly because of how much we had walked [around 8 hours]. then on sunday, my friends that usually go to church didn't go and since missy and i still had much to see, we didn't go. she bought souvenirs for all her family and boyfriend then we went to the hancock tower and were gonna go up but didn't have time. we were going to go to the Messiah concert but when we got back there was no room. we went back to sightseeing till open house when we did my hair...here's the story. it was supposed to be just lightened or something. she brushed the cap of my head and we didn't leave it in long enough so it made my head look like i had a BRIGHT orange yarmulke on. then i had her do some more around my head but it still didn't work so we just finished it all off except for some edges but i think it looks cool unfinished. unique. now everyone at school knows who i am. i'm the only one with a bright yellow head. HA funny well i sent missy off on monday and she had a lot of fun i think but yeah. sweet

Giordanos and Pissed off


well sort of. I mean stupid people should be locked up. Today i went to Giordanos and for you non-chicago people it's the most awesome pizza place outside of italy. had an awesome time hanging out with friends and such. ate my fill of pizza, came back "home" to finish up a little homework and then i just went downstairs to get my laundry out of the dryer. As i got there, all of the doors to all of the dryers were open with half dried laundry hanging from them. Some STUPID person as a joke decided to open all of them and let the clocks run out and have people not get their clothes dry. Now as a person who has all of his clothes either clean or in the wash, this made me pissed, not only that i lost 50 cents but that i have to stay up an extra 40 minutes to go to bed. tomorrow will be better. Missy's coming on friday. I'm skipping class. so now i'm gonna sit here and wait for my laundry grrr
