Adios

For Melissa

  Well, this is the last knotbritish post (new site to come), and I want to dedicate it to Melissa Unwin, an incredible person who fought cancer bravely until the very end.

                              I Did Not Die

                   Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.
                   I am not there; I do not sleep.
                   I am a thousand winds that blow.
                   I am the diamond glints on snow.
                   I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
                   I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
                  When you awaken in the morning’s hush
                   I am the swift uplifting rush
                  Of quiet birds in circled flight.
                   I am the soft stars that shine at night.
                  Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.
                  I am not there. I did not die.

                       -Melinda Sue Pacho

Ghost Town

Ok, so I am back. Again. It's true. You know, they don't make three weeks like they used to. It goes too fast. Anyways, I moved into my apartment Thursday... there are just a few apartments and I am currently the only one in the building. It's too quiet. And as for quiet, this campus/town is dead compared to its normal self. If it wasn't for the slew of high schoolers at soccer/tennis/vietmenese pride/swingers camps, there would be no one here, except for a few stragglers like myself.
Class started today... two hours a day, five days a week. I think I can handle it. Plus, the teacher is from Fairview, so he says he sympathizes with the Seiling-ite. 

Well, this has been my desperate attempt to avoid doing actual work, and I think the jig is up. Talk later.

Another Hump Day

Ok, so the novelty of being home has pretty much disappeared as of the last two or three days. There was plenty of fun for everyone over the weekend, no doubt. Sunday was graduation here, and I have to say it had little effect on me... it didn't float my boat, whip my cream or mash my potatoes. Nothing. I guess I've been away from the seniors long enough to have reached apathy.

Anyways, haven't had to work for a couple of days, and I'm bored. It's pretty pathetic. I am ready, however to go get a better job in Norman (one more week here).
(There are talks of driving to TX, or KS, for supper one night. That's sad too.)

As for facebook, it took me back. Thanks a lot to Hilary, pfff, for that too. 

This post is even boring me, I'm getting the hell out of here. Good luck out there people.

Seiling, America

Well, it has been a decent damn week for Lunden. I got a high A on my last final Thursday, and then traveled back home. My allergies will disagree, but it is good to be back. (I haven't slept in my room yet though... it is a just-moved-home debris field. Oh well, two more rooms to choose from.)  

In an extreme last-minute situation, I ended up going to Seiling's prom on Saturday night... fifth year in a row, how sad is that. It was overall a good time, and I didn't have the bottle flu like last year.

Right now, it is looking like this: my (most likely) last two weeks at the steakhouse, get unpacked just in time to have to pack back up, move back to hell June 1, and throw a good amount of fishing, camping, and tomfoolery in there. I forgot to mention Walleye Rodeo this weekend... Walleye Rodeo! Ha!

By the way, File 13 is where you can (cannot) find my facebook profile. It has ceased to amuse me, and it's wasting too much time in which I could be sleeping or watching rubbish. So, I'll be back there in the fall more than likely.

I'm beat. You have a good one.
