Spring Break

Day 1 (March 4, 2011)
I left Spokane at 3:10 in the afternoon, we landed in Denver half an hour early. I was able to grab a small bite to eat in the airport since I wouldn’t be getting to Missouri until 9:40 (or 7:40 my time which is after I usually eat). After getting the plane de-iced, which I have to admit was pretty neat to watch, we left denver at about 7:20 in the evening. I landed in Missouri at the Kansas City International Airport at 9:40. After getting my bags and taking the shuttle to the car, we had a two and a half hour drive ahead of us. We finally made it shortly after midnight to Fayette, MO.

Day 2 (March 5, 2011)
After getting to bed, I was hoping to sleep in, but instead was awoken at 9 am to go grocery shopping (which was like 7 am to me). On my weekends I like to sleep in, 7 am is definitely way to early to get up on a weekend. We drove half an hour to Columbia, MO. We got lunch at Chipotle (I haven’t ate there since May). In Washington/Idaho where I am, all that we have is Qdoba, which is alright but I feel like Chipotle is far superior. After that we went to a couple grocery stores to get the foods for the week. For dinner, we had chicken franks with different fruits or veggies.

Day 3 (March 6, 2011)
I was able to sleep in until noon. I the traveling across two time zones truly got to me finally. I was too tired to go to church, fell asleep after I was awoken to get ready. It felt really good to sleep in for 12 hours though. We had lunch meat sandwiches for lunch with fruit and potato chips. We went to play Resident Evil 5, but had to delete all the previous save information and had to install a game update. So, I watched Josh play Resident Evil 4 for a while, then I decided to play Audiosurf and Plants vs. Zombies. We went out to eat with one of Josh’s roommates to a Mexican Restaurant. After that, we came back and made brownies. Then, we started playing Resident Evil 5.

Day 4 (March 7, 2011)
This was the worst night of sleeping so far. Josh went to bed at 12:30, I wasn’t tired so I decided to play on my computer. I finally started to feel tired at around 3 am so I decided to try to fall asleep. I still couldn’t fall asleep for quite some time. I woke up several times during the night and fully woke up at 8 am. Once Josh left for class I laid back down and woke up at about noon when he came back from class. We had lunch meat sandwiches for lunch. Josh had a discipleship meeting for a couple hours, I stayed and played computer games and ordered another official transcript to send over to University of Idaho since I am registering for classes in 2 and a half weeks. We made pork chops and beans with a type of home made barbecue sauce for dinner. After dinner we played Resident Evil 5 some, ate some of the brownies we made, and played more Resident Evil 5.

Day 5 (March 8, 2011)
I was able to sleep pretty well even though that I didn’t fall asleep until 3 am. I woke up at 10 am. One of these days I will actually eat breakfast. I spent some time with Josh, then we had lunch of a lunchmeat sandwich (there seems to be a pattern here) with an apple. Josh went to class, I worked on studying for macroeconomics. Josh came back, and we got ready to go to Columbia. First, we went to Andy’s Frozen Custard. I had a banana split and Josh had a concrete with some chocolate stuff. Then, we drove around trying to find Galactic Fun Zone, Google maps kept taking us to the wrong place. We played some arcade games and played a game of bowling. Then, we went out to eat Flat Branch which is a local brewery with a restaurant. We both had a smoked pork sandwich that came with barbecue sauce and we had mashed potatoes as well. Then, we came back to Fayette, I got to see a bit of his school at night as we walked to the Navigators meeting. We did praise and worship for about an hour and half. We then came back to Josh’s place and played Resident Evil 5 some more.

Day 6 (March 9, 2011)
I slept in again, there seems to be a pattern. What can I say, I love my sleep. Josh had class in the morning again. He got back and we had lunchmeat sandwiches. After that Josh worked on his study guide for his test that he had the next day. I worked on my practice problems for macroeconomics since I have a test in that class right after spring break. After Josh finished his study guide, we played some more Resident Evil 5. We had pork chops with apple and raisins for dinner. After dinner, Josh reviewed his study guide and I worked on my practice problems some more. After about an hour, we took a break and went to Dairy Queen to get some ice cream, even though neither of us should have any. We continued studying for a bit more when we got back. After that, I booked my hotel for Sakura-con next month. I also looked at the majors at University of Idaho and am thinking that I might double major in Accounting and Finance since it will only be like 5 more classes. Then, we played Resident Evil for a little bit more. My goal for tomorrow is to actually eat breakfast.

Day 7 (March 10, 2011)
Today, Josh had class early at 8:30 am. I actually got up to eat breakfast of a blueberry muffin. When Josh got back from his class he worked on Auditing homework, and I worked on my macroeconomics practice problems. Then, we had lunchmeat sandwiches for lunch with an apple. Josh did some last minute studying for his test that he had after lunch. While he was gone, I worked on my macroeconomics practice problems a little bit and organized the classes for majoring in Accounting and Finance. Most of the classes are the same, there are 6 additional classes I would need for a Finance major compared to just doing an Accounting major. Then, we played some Resident Evil again, we are getting close to beating the game. We went out to dinner at Emmett’s here in Fayette. Josh had chicken tenders and I had baby back ribs. We also had a chocolate fudge mousse cake for desert. When, we got back Josh finished his Auditing assignment and I worked on my macroeconomics practice problems some more. I only have 12 more problems to go. Then, we played even more Resident Evil. Tomorrow is Josh’s last day of classes before spring break starts for him.

Day 8 (March 11, 2011)
Today was Josh’s last day of classes. I woke up sometime after 11 I think. Josh and I had lunch. I ate my leftovers from dinner last night and Josh had a lunchmeat sandwich. We played more Resident Evil 5 and beat it. After playing, I worked on my macroeconomics and microeconomics until I got to stuff that we haven’t covered in class yet. I then read some of my microeconomics textbook. I don’t understand why I like my book this semester but I didn’t like my micro book last semester. We then had dinner. I had a hamburger and Josh had a stuffed chicken breast, and we both had onion and garlic french fries. After dinner, I watched Josh play the mercenaries mode on Resident Evil 5. Then, we started playing Heavy Rain. Its sad to think that my time here is almost here. Josh is just now starting break, and mine is coming to an end. I am definitely not ready to return to school. I am enjoying this break way too much, and the time has gone by too quickly.

Day 9 (March 12, 2011)
Today I slept in, at first I woke up at like 10 but I was too tired and went back to sleep until noon. After I woke up we had lunchmeat sandwiches. We played Heavy Rain for awhile. Then, we hung out for awhile until we got hungry. We decided to out to eat for dinner one last time. We went to Ruby Tuesday for dinner, which was my first time going there. We both had the smokehouse burger for dinner. I had tiramisu for desert, and Josh had a double chocolate cake for dinner. When we got back we played the rest of Heavy Rain, and then went to bed.

Day 10 (March 13, 2011)
I woke up at like 10:30 this morning. We had lunch at noon of lunch meat sandwiches. I packed up my stuff to get ready to go back to Spokane. I gave Josh my entire music collection. I have 19.5 GB of music, or 4,178 songs. After that, I watched Josh play Resident Evil 4 for a little bit over an hour before we had to go. Now, we had a two and half hour drive to the airport. I saw lots of cows, which was a big deal for me cause there aren’t a lot of cows where I am in Idaho/Washington. Plus, for some reason I have always liked cows. We stopped at Chipotle on our way to the airport for an early dinner. It is going to be very said to leave Josh, but I will see him again in May.
