Busy, Bored, & Easily Distracted

Random blurbs in lieu of a well-thought out post:

-The Book. Sitting in front of the Jehning Family Lock Museum, meeting people, and signing some books, reminded me yet again that Mountain View is ever-so-pleasant town filled with friendly, unpretentious people. No wonder I often get so frustrated with the atmosphere in the city of Berkeley.

-Cal football. Hrmmm. Don't know what to think. Still burning from that Tennessee game. The past two home games have been alright (can't complain about two W's) but I'm nervously awaiting the start of Pac-10 conference play. Then we'll see this team's true colors. One positive, it sounds like the crowd is getting loud much more effectively and more often. When we start playing rivals in close games, it could get really fun! Oh, and I don't care what other people say. I *liked* the team's new gold pants.

-Stanford Football. Hah. HAHAHAHA. Haha. Ha. Actually, I feel bad for them and want them to be good enough to make the rivalry fun. It's so sad that their team couldn't draw a sell-out crowd to the grand opening over their tiny new stadium.

-College friends. Eric E. randomly flew up to Berkeley to come to the game this weekend. Kay met up with me, Eric, and Dan after for dinner. That was nice. It's been a while. I wouldn't be surprised if the next time a bunch of the college gang is together is at Erik and Lesley's wedding. All the more reason to celebrate, but here's hoping I see more of you more often and sooner than that. Or else Lauren will get even more bitter. ;-)

-My roommates. The house is in order. Alex and Chris are good people. Dan's still Dan. We're having fun. It'll be a good year, and I'll be sad to leave once it ends.

-City Planning. Yeah. I've been on this career track since I was in 7th grade. What if I get bored with telling people to widen sidewalks and add street trees? As graduation approaches, I've spent a lot of time pondering what type of job will really make me happy. City Planning is such a broad field, where do I fit in? Time will tell, I guess. I'm slightly less motivated than I used to be, but honestly, I still think that's a good thing.

-Social life. I try to have fun, and often succeed, but at the end of the night its tough and tiring to be single. Nuff' said.

-Spinach. Just when I started to like it....

-Project Runway. Kinda boring this season, but still a great way to waste time on Wednesday night if I'm not stuck in some late Downtown Berkeley meeting.

-Swimming. I went from being in the fastest lane to the slowest lane by moving up to the highest level of Swimming PE. But hey, it's keeping me in good shape. Nevertheless, the RSF and I need to get back in touch sometime soon.

-Facebook. That mini-feed was creepy. Privacy controls are good. But there are some people who didn't change their settings so now when I sign in I'm greeted with a detailed account of every move they've made in the past few days. Annoying. I don't want to know, but can't help reading it.

-House Party. When to have one?

-Halloween. What to do, what to do?

-Shopping. I need some new threads.

-Bed. When to go? How about right....now.

Goodnight.
