Please Don't Fuck Me Google

Google is all fucked up right now and I guess EBlogger or Blogspot or whatever it is I use is a Google service. Now I am forced to write a blog on MySpace and then copy and paste it to Blogspot. The scary thing about that is, MySpace doesn't back up drafts as you write the blog and I've been fucked by that many of times. Pray for me.

So everyday Tuesday I have a Career and Major Exploration class. This weeks reading was all about finding yourself, you passions, your skills and talents. It gave tips on how you could do some soul searching and they had a whole half chapter explaining that keeping a journal will really help. Blogs anyone? Word.

This past Sunday was Nick's birthday and we didn't have anything planed for Sunday, but we had a lot of crap ready for Saturday. I got home from church and trucked it over to Jon's in the blistering cold. When I got there Jon was just leaving. Nick and Dean were in the basement playing the old Super Smash Bros. They offered me a spot, but I refused because I was afraid that if I played that, it would throw off my sensitivity for Melee (Maybe this is why I looked better in Melee over the weekend? And maybe actually didn't get better). We called up Andy and asked him if he wanted to join us and he did. After that, we just had to wait for Mitch's punk ass to get over so we could dip out. We got a little lost finding the place. We got off on a couple of wrong exits and did some loop-de-loops, but we managed to find it. When we got there, the first period was about the end with Jon's team up 1 to 0. The game went back and forth and I believe Jon's team went into the 3rd period down by one. Dean and Mitch purchased a "chuck a puck" which they got to use in between the 2nd and 3rd period to try and win a prize. They lost. In the end, Jon's team lost by one. After hockey we got home and played some Melee I believe. After that we went over to the hot spot a.k.a Applebees! Applebees was full of rich conversations and probably one of the most serious ones since the religion talk we had during winter break. We touched on many topics. I brought up history of the U.S and how it affected the whole world and that branched off to many things. Basically, I feel like we are all fucked and that we are all slaves. To who? I don't know. Andy said the rich white man and I guess thats the best way to explain it for now. Maybe I'm to picky and I should appreciate the things I have more. Another topic we talked about that I really liked was Time (But before I get into that, this Britney Spears song, "Breath on Me" that is playing right now is fuggin tight. It should be in a Lexus commercial). Prince, or the artist formerly known as, was brought up cause he doesn't believe in time. It was a weird topic and I can't really explain it, but it was interesting. I also brought up intuition. Why it seems like some people have a "smarter" intuition that leads them to better things and some people are a weaker intuition that leads them to bad ideas and makes them look dumb. Intuition led us to talk about love at first sight, which most of the people don't believe in. But lately, I've been thinking about it, and sometimes I feels like I have the "smart" intuition. And what if I really could just feel that I love someone on first sight? Andy also asked if we thought there was only one real perfect match for us in the world. I never thought of that. It kind of ate at me that I didn't have an opinion on that. I just didn't and still don't know how I feel about that. Oh, on the way to Applebees, we drove in two separate cars and we tried to use my iTrip on both cars. I guess it worked.
After the Hot Spot, we dropped Dickoli off and went to the Casino. We got to Mystic Lake and parked in the garage and it was COLD AS FUCK! I wanted to burn myself alive just so I could feel warmth one more time before I died, cause I was going to freeze anyways. We got there and we all had to flash our I.D's to the security lady, who I think was half retarded. Not sure. Anywho, she tells Nick that he can't go in jokingly. Dean ran down the stairs and I ran down the escalator and I beat him. He is slow. Well it was the first time I had been to casino and now I was like what now? Mitch sounded like he had the most casino experience and I thought he was going to show us the ropes. I guess I was kind of naive to think that Mitch would actually be a good "tour guide." We just wandered around for the first 10 minutes and then Jon manned up and put a dollar in a slot and pulled it. I don't remember if he won on his first pull, or his second pull. I do remember he won fairly early and its not like he won a lot, he put in one dollar and out came two but the rest of the guys cheered so loud that everyone must have assumed he won a jackpot. This cheering happened a couple of more times there and each time people would all look at where the money pours out. I haven't been to the casino enough to fully understand, but it seems like there is this tension in the air, where if someone wins, everyone has to know and know how much. Its kind of a team oriented tension, but at the same time, its a very jealous tension. Before I forget, I must write that SMOKING SUCKS! A white man should make a casino and should follow Minnesota law where there is no indoors smoking. They even have a person walking around selling cigs. Made my clothes all stinky to. I am going to dress like a slob next time I go to the casino because smoking is for slobby people haha! After that, we walked over to the video poker. Andy sits down, puts in a dollar and starts playing. Shortly after Mitch joins him. Next thing I know, Andy is done and I ask him, "How much did you lose?" He actually came up $12 in a matter of like 3 minutes. He called it a night. Smart man. Mitch went up and down, but at the end of that video poker trip, he came out with a $22 voucher. We walked around and hit up a few more spots. We found a little drinking station and we all got some pop. I've been avoiding pop unless I have to drink it and I couldn't find the water so I had me a Sprite. Which was dumb, cause the water tab was right under the pink lemonade. Oh well, I figure I put 50 cents worth of my money into their money sucking machines, I might as well get a pop out of it. I lost 50 cents to video poker and I think Dean lost a dollar in there somewhere. I really like Andy's and Dean's discipline. Mitch, Jon and Nick couldn't stop. I like to think that I have good self discipline and it was weird to see how my friends couldn't stop. They couldn't control them selves. It made me wonder, is there something out there that would do that to me? Something that I want so much, or think is so amazing that I wouldn't be able to control myself it was in front of me. Its scary to think about, I hope I am strong enough to fight anything thrown my way. Maybe I will bring it up at the Hot Spot one of these times. It would be great to talk about and see if people know their weaknesses. Dean wanted to do the Chris Tucker scene from Rush Hour 2 and yell "This one is for Mandella."

There was a few more things about the casino I wanted to talk about, but my Korean class is about to start so now I must dip. Hopefully I remember them for next time.
