so what if i haven't been blogging for one month? doesn't mean that i'll never blog again right? haha ok so i'm back after my 40-day hiatus. been heluva ride man... guess i should have blogged a bit about the vacation i took with charlotte, but it's far too late now... that's what happens when i enjoy myself too much -- i forget about the rest of the world... but no matter, now i'm back with a vengeance!

went to my professor's house with a bunch of friends to celebrate summer solstice. for those of you who don't know, summer solstice is the day when the sun ba long long (takes its own blardy sweet time to) go down, hence giving us the longest day in the year. but the amazing thing wasn't actually the tremendous amount of sunlight that we got. on the other hand, we journeyed to our prof's house to witness the most beautiful moonrise i've seen in my ENTIRE life. actually, i've never ever seen a moonrise in my entire life! so anyway, it was beautiful. we were just getting impatient when suddenly, from across Cayuga Lake, the moon appeared right between Sibley Dome and the McGraw Tower. It was red. have i ever seen a red moon in my life? NO. i was like, OMG. that's why scholarships are good see, they pay for your tuition plus 1350 a month to let you see such wonders of nature.

talking about wonders of nature, i spent a good deal of time this summer looking at fireflies. with charlotte at taughanock falls, with colin and gang at the Plantations, and with my archi friends at my prof's house. i wonder why fireflies don't go extinct. i mean, imagine being an insect with a big red target on your backside. yah. now imagine your backside shining like a blardy lighthouse. how to survive? maybe they're so cute that nobody wants to eat them.

oh big news! i've finally found a way to cope with charlotte's temper!

haha yah right.

i wish ah. but i still love her! don't get angry ok? i just say for fun only.

ok that's all for now, going to try and cook some lousy dinner for myself, before my ribs start poking out.
