The Disney Channel and Me

Dear Blog,

Well, you missed it. I didn't mean to not tell you blog, but life had other obligations. You see, summer school is over, my role as an RA is done for the summer, too, and I went to Six Flags. I'll give you a summary of events, but you really should pay more attention, Blog.

I got an A in Classical Mythology and a B in Experimental Psychology. I can't complain with those scores at all.
Checkouts went reasonably well on my floor. I wish I hadn't had a test on Friday morning, because everyone else had to tend to the Korean-Daegu students leaving en masse.

Victoria wrote a nice summary of our trip to Six Flags, so here it is (since I'm a tad lazy tonight):

"Anyways, learned a lesson at Six Flags today. Don't wear hats on roller coasters...they fall off. [Daniel note: we lost our hats on the Evel Knievel ride; my Smithsonian Institution and Italia hats were gone with the wind] I still feel bad about it. Gonna go back later this week to see if they found them, but I don't know if they give it to me since Daniel put his name on the lost and found sheet...I hope :/

Had a really good time otherwise, went on lots of rides and roller coasters all were in the front row. Went on Superman which scared me A LOT!! Also won a floppy tiger which I named Hats.

I also made sandwiches for lunch like a woman, lol. And Daniel gave me a bunch of video games to borrow for my N64 so tomorrow is declared video game day and when I get bored, I am going to watch Mystery Science Theater 3000. Lunch was fun. :D

We went to Hurricane Harbor as well and rented tubes which made the wait for rides a lot shorter. Soon though we had to leave so we met up with his sister and went home."

I'm not entirely sure how I felt about the "made sandwiches like a woman" comment. My mom would totally have made sandwiches, so I applaud Victoria in that motherly endeavor. But I don't want her to feel as though she has to make me food because she's "the woman" and I, as "the man", must have things done for me. Neither negative or positive. Just noteworthy for the time being.

Since the trip to Six Flags, I've been at home. Linda had her tonsils taken out Wednesday, and dad started feeling ill later in the day. Mom has her sinuses acting up, and I'm, well, normal for the time being. I've been playing the role of errand boy, running to Walmart to grab medicine or food, doing chores, and "being forced" to play video games (Specifically Bioshock 2) for my sister. And lots of TV. Mainly the Disney Channel during the day and Comedy Central at night. And interspersed sessions of Netflix (mainly streaming TV shows and stand-ups specials).

I wish I had a longer summer, free of obligations. I need about one more week of vacation before heading back to school. But alas, no luck for me in the regard. I can't complain, life has been good to me. But I always want what I can't have, right?

If these walls could talk, they'd be kinda boring to listen to.

Until next time,
-Daniel Golden
