Weird college essays, blog catch-up, and various quizzes

Okay, I'm back to a more normal style of updating. I bet you're all relieved. :P


Dawn sent me a link overnight that she thought I'd like: The most idiotic (yet funny) college essay ever! Thanks... it's so hilarious! :D

I caught up on the adventures of Dawn, Dave, Steph, Spoz, Jon, and Vivian today too. Nostalgic moments, 99% chocolate bars, weird chip flavors (Canadian bacon and cheese, English lamb and mint), lots of France / Beijing pictures, and a bunch of other stuff. Always good. :D

Hmm. I got a March 26 message on OKCupid from some guy named Nick who has this to say: "I liked your profile, and I'll be in Vancouver around April 20-23." No more information. Looking at the profile, I also note that he's 52 years old. That might be for some people, but not me! Deep-six that one, haha.
