MEMORIES
Tomorrow is the first day for me at the University of Utah. Due to mostly to my no job status I am excited to finally have something that is worth my time. I do not have particularly fond memories of school, but I do remember being excited for school to start when I was in elementary school. I recall laying out my clothes for the first day. Tonight, I did it again.
STILL FRIENDS
As you may know, Alkaline Trio is my favorite band. I love the music now more than ever. I wanted to be a member of the Alkaline Trio fan club. I joined the Pact in April 2008, but received my goods 9 months later. It was a drag to ask every single day when I would get home from work, "Mother Dear, did I receive any packages today?" Each day the answer was the same, I would have to still wait to have my wonderful items. I emailed the help center about my shirt not coming 3 or 4 times and was always told that it was just taking a long time because there was an extremely high volume of new members. I looked online and found some people with the same problem that I was having. Most were complaining about not getting the shirt for a little over a month to about 3 months, so I just waited patiently, but after 6 months I was a bit irritated. I had gotten to the point that I thought that I was getting cheated and would never get the shirt or that someone stole the things from the porch of my house. I finally emailed them with a tone that was more aggressive than my usual pleasant diction. I learned that it is not always the best to be kind, sometimes you have to show the Blood Pact some tough love to get your things. I finally have my gear. It was only about a week after I emailed that I received my things. I was filled with glee when I put the shirt on, it was just glorious.

FAILS AGAIN!
As many of you may know, I am not a fan of New Years Eve. Last night was not an exception, although it was not the worst I have ever experienced. I don't know exactly where to start, but I suppose that we can consider 6:00 PM "Eve", so I will start there.
At about 5:30 Matthew and I began our less than desirable evening. We went to a basketball game at the University of Utah. We arrived at the game, and as students we are permitted entrance to the game when you have your student identification card scanned. Matt had no problem with his admittance, but when I put my card in the paw of the entrance guard I was denied entrance twice. He then told me to go to the ticket window and explain the problem. When I explained the problem I was told that the only thing to do was to buy a ticket, at the student guest rate of $7. I was quite vexed but decided that the benefit of watching the game was more than the cost of the 7 dollars I would have to spend. We watched the game, and it was fantastic. I have never seen a basketball in person that had an ending that was the same. The Utes defeated the 16th ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs. The Utes, as far as my memory can recall, were always in the lead.
After the game we went to Taco Bell, my default location, and home to prepare for the "First Night" celebration at the Gallivan Center. It was very cold so I found my mittens to wear on my hands. Later I would be wishing that I had mittens for my feet due to the numb felling that was tingling in my frozen appendages. Matt had a friend that offered to give us tickets to the event since he had some extras. When we got there Matt called a phone what was unwatched. We stood outside the entrance for about an hour I would guess, just waiting for a reply or to see the friend with the tickets. I suggested that we go bowling instead of waiting around in the cold any longer, and since we are both almost bowling junkies the decision was made with little hesitance. We bowled about what we expect when we go bowling, although Matt seemed to get a pinfall of 9 almost every time, just missing the strike. Many times the final pin would wobble, and taunt us both as it remained standing.
After bowling we drove towards Walmart so that we could buy some things, but about a block away I remembered that the Walmart was not open 24 hours a day at the location we go to. We then drove to 7/11 where I purchased a Slurpee. As we were getting in the car with our newly purchased goods, we saw the employees celebrate. We then went home, watched two episodes of "Futurama" and went to bed.
New Years Eve was a bust again.
