A slow day 19. But trust me, day 20 is chock-full of craziness.

Day 19

Why were we so tired this morning? Breakfast was nothing big, just blueberry pancakes with syrup. They were good, but I only had two. School meeting was fine, nothing extraordinary. Jack pondered replacing the Boraxo cans with 12-pound dispensers. That raised a ruckus. In wood crew I spent half the time searching for trees to mark with Marcus, Timo's brother. It was me, David, Becky, Phoebe, and Rebecca in one group, and we passed around two paint guns that looked like modified spray cans/windex bottles. After we marked some trees, identified Black Cherry trees, and got Becky's arm and my sweater pocket painted, we headed back to Jack and I cut down three trees. That was fun.

Lunch was amazing-- calzones. I had two. And some salad with ranch (I think) dressing and croutons. And 3 oatmeal raisin cookies with milk. During my free I typed up some History notes from the night before and stumbled and dugg. In History I couldn't really focus. In English we walked to a mending wall, like the poem we read, and Lex was silly reading 'good fences make good neighbors'. I met with Susie and we discussed bandwidth for a while, along with general activities. In my free I tried talking to Grace and Arya, but nothing really happened with either of those conversations. I read the English story and became depressed.

I learned I could use skype [video chat] and got a phone card. I stumbled a bit more. Dinner was a rich meatloaf and peas. I went back to the dorm and cleaned up my room, played Never Enough (oh yea, during my free I also rocked out to Dream Theater. I got through almost all of Octavarium.) on guitar and ukelele.

I called Dad; he's doing fine. He and Susie liked my plier ramen story. I started my History outline... based on what the last essay was and what I have I have a feeling he'll like it... we'll see if it's long enough (<_<).People played with the speech functions on Macs. Gergh. I may revise History, print that out, then study trees... why, though? I already did a lot of studying, though some of it might be too theoretical.

Arya would be a nice outlet right now.llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
