This is my favorite part. What? The ending! HAHAHAHA

It's snowing outside right now. It isn't really sticking, but the snow is falling. Apparently there is more snow in SC right now than we have in the Smoky Mountains. But we'll settle for this. As long as I get to go skiing sometime this season, I'll be happy. Tonight I went to my first class of Media Law and Ethics. There are two professors. One wasn't there tonight, but I've heard that together they act like Waldorf and Statler from the Muppet Show. "You know, that wasn't half bad. No, it was all bad. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" At the moment I'm watching the movie "Dr. No." That's right, the classic, original James Bond. If you haven't seen you, go check it out. And the song for the day will be "You get what you give" by the New Radicals. A nice song from the end of the '90s. Worth a shot. Here's a discussion question: how are the late night shows and other comics doing without writers? I'll weigh in on it later. I'm still a little torn.

One week down

I have made it through the first few days of class. I don't know how many are left to give you a count, but it's a lot. Classes so far have gone well. I have a German professor who lived in Stuttgart for a semester and now thinks he is German himself. He has even embraced German fashion, which is very much like American fashion in the 80's, since it took the 80's a couple decades to get to Germany. There's also a girl in this class who thinks she is amazing because she lived in Germany for three years. What she doesn't seem to grasp is that she is in an intermediate German class, and she should be able to speak German better than she does. But I won't burst her bubble. My other classes are all Journalism & Electronic Media classes, which I enjoy. It's nice to finally be done with the biologies and anthropologies that I will never use. Nor will any other human being with a life and a girlfriend. Not that I necessarily have either of those, but they are planned for the future. In other cool news, the station manager liked my idea for a specialty show on The Rock, so that may be happening in the near future. I'm excited. I went and saw the movie "Juno" last night. Very funny, kind of cute. Two thumbs up. It's kind of a twisted comedy, but I liked it a lot. I'm recommending it for those who enjoy a nice, sarcastic humor. Music to check out: "Ruby" by Kaiser Chiefs. Great song.

Passing Go, Collecting $200

This is my first blog. Ever. It's something I've been thinking about doing for a while, and I've finally taken the steps to do it. What stopped me before was that I always thought that I don't have anything worthwhile to say that anyone would want to read. Then i came to a realization- neither do any of the other idiots out there with blogs. This is the beginning of mine. Not that it has any kind of order or has some progression or a goal to it. I'm just planning on telling funny stories and ranting about things that bother me. Possibly keep people updated on my life. Although, that would be rather easy: "school.work." That would be about it. But who knows? Maybe some crazy things will happen to me that I can talk about. If not, I'll recant past crazy adventures I've had. Hope you enjoy.
