| I feel quite drawn to blogging again all of a sudden.
Things are going an odd mixture of great, good, and down right shitty in paradise, which has kept me glued to my seat on a sort of emotional roller-coaster, complete with full flips and those cool cork-screw sections.
Money isn't really something I've ever really held particularly near or dear to my heart but it's pretty much lodged itself to the back of my head now that I've got to deal with having literally not a dollar to my name and a refridgerator that's keeping nothing but waterbottles of tap water cold more often than is fun (or healthy). There's usually odd-jobs to be done, but the majority of them are cleaning and baby-sitting. It's not that I mind doing either of the above, on the contrary it would be a nice change of pace, but for being a bunch of rich new-age acid casualities the home-owners are here sure can be sexist in who they will and won't hire! So when I want/need money my options are basically even more weeding and mowing than I already do at the place I live or some equally boring and miserable out-door work on their friend's property.
Then there's the fact that I'm living some sort of reality t.v. show and although I haven't figured out where the cameras are hidden, it's the only explanation for why I have to live and work with my ex-girlfriend! For the most part we still get along well, but there's still times where things flare up a bit and then it's a bit awkward...especially when it happens in front of our new co-worker: Eduardo from Ecuador.
Now that I'm looking back on what I've put down so far, it makes it seem like things are in the shitter, but really that pretty far from the truth. I mean come on...it's Maui! The weather here is amazing even when it's raining, and I ride past the wind-surfing capital of the world and watch professional wind-surfers whenever I'm on my way into town. Tomorrow is Sunday, which is drum-circle day on the clothing-optional Little Beach, where if you're not either drunk, high, naked, dancing, or all of the above then it has to be asked what the fuck are you even there for!?

| Xanga!?
I live in Maui with Jenny now.
I smoke weed, work outside, and get crunked at the beach. (sobriety is for suckas!)
All in all, life is good if not exhausting and penny-less.
Sometime I have productive days...usually I do.
Cool! | | |
| Xanga!?
I live in KC with Jayme now.
I smoke weed, play games, and watch dvds. (vhs is for suckas!)
All in all, life is good if not slow and monotonous.
Sometime I have productive days...usually I don't.
Cool!
Group photo, buddies!

| It's crazy to think that it's really only been a little under 5 months, and so much has changed!
No, I didn't go to teach Japanese in Minnesota. No, I'm not moving to Portland. Yes, I did go to Japan for a little under 4 weeks. Because I went to Japan, I'm not going to Quakecon with my brother.
Yes, I'm moving to Chicago, and yes I am still looking for a roommate.
And I am so going to see Thee Silver Mt. Zion WITH Tra-la-la Band.

| Three more months of mandatory schooling and it's all over with.
Good thing I still don't have a clue what I'll do when I graduate.
From July 17 to August 22 I'm going to be teaching at a Japanese summer camp in Minnesota. That I do know.
I think I'm moving to Portland? Or going to Japan for a few weeks? Or both?
Whatever, I just want lots of crazy stuff to happen on my year off.
