help me decide where to go to school:

Princeton--
not much playing time the first 2-3 years.
amazing city
great academics
decent med program

or

Bates College, Lewiston Maine
four years of over 80% playing time
Really good academically
great med program
greatski slopes out your back door
tiny little city (which i'm cool with)
white water rafting guiding jobs
coolest freaking clubs ever... including improv  (strange bedfellows)
tiny classes/(small school... like 1,300 people)


VOTE!

Today, I flew to Chicago, then Boston, then drove to Maine. yep, I'm in Maine. my college trip has begun. welcome to 6 days and 5 nights of traveling the east coast with none other than, you guessed it, MOM.  she's currently asleep in the bed next to mine. that's how I like her best... asleep.  
Shout out to [info]celenus, cuz I drove through Portsmouth (sp?) New Hampshire today...   

we were supposed to leave on saturday, but we had to postpone because my mom was having some serious atrial fibrulation (sp) that wouldn't go away, so they had to shock her with the paddles (defibrulators) until her heart beat went back to normal.
if you're really interested in where i'm going the schedule is
anyways...  on a totally unrelated note. my temple softball team is reforming again... and we really need some players... You don't have to be jewish even!!! so, who likes softball? actually, we are in desperate need for women!!!  ATTENTION [info]funkycold, [info]shutupandrow, [info]kristinkaci
you guys would be perfect! anyways, that's all for now. talk to everyone later... dont be afraid to call too, i have my cell.

Life is cool. It revolves around 4 things. School, Soccer, My Mom and Grey's Anatomy. 

In reverse order. I fucking love this show. I'm addicted. I wish Addison would choke on a baby and die, so the Derek and Meredith can get back together. I've purchaced/watched the Season 1 DVD, and am downloading/watching them in sequential order. i'm up to S2E08 'Let It Be'. Burke is fucking hott. Dr. McDreamy is just a smidge hotter though. 
Shit with my mom is pretty good. she's out of town most of the time... (think every Thurs-Sun. and next week Wed-Sun) so it makes for a more relaxing living space. 
Soccer... god damn...  the most political most back stabbical, evil thing in the world. i hope none of you have to go through the ocean of shit that is "tryouts" (i'll explain why soon)  I'm playing this year for Emerald City FC, a division 1 team that I played for a few years ago. pretty much all the same girls. pretty much awesome.  even awesome-er i got invited to try out for the seattle sounders, womens team... i'm shitting my pants. if I make it, you all have to come watch me play.
School. doing good. planing a college trip for the week of spring break. I'm going to go see:

Brandeis
Bates
Brown*
Colby
Princeton
Northwestern
       *school I REALLY want to go to.

the week after that, i'm going to the deschutes river to river raft with my friends from school. so it'll be awesome

Also, I've been out of touch with a lot of people. so If i haven't talked to you in at least 2 weeks, gimmie a ring. (2) 660.6490

SOUTH DAKOTA HAS JUST MADE ABORTION ILLEGAL!!!!!!!!
this is bad, oh so very bad...
The following is parts from the Washington Post.

The measure, which passed the state Senate 23 to 12, makes it a felony for doctors to perform any abortion, except to save the life of a pregnant woman.....  

EVEN WORSE:
abortion opponents succeeded in defeating all amendments designed to mitigate the ban, including exceptions in the case of rape or incest or the health of the woman. Hunt said that such "special circumstances" would have diluted the bill and its impact on the national scene.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dammit people are stupid. The desired goal won't even be achieved. Instead, they are making abortion into a socio-economic issue. Only the people who can pay to go to a different state can have an abortion. The others either won't, or will go get a coat hanger. This is, indeed, fucking not okay.

HAH!

Lacrosse season started again. I forgot how much fun it was, and I forgot how good I am, WAY better than soccer! I know we're going to win the State Championship, I just know. It feels really good to be doing another team sport. I just don't know how I'm going to handle this AND soccer, AND school. good thing my mom took away all other distractions... :(

And I'll post the schedule somewhere so all you folk can come watch me play! you know you want to!

love,
Wolf!

$10 says the huge ass storm outside takes out the power to seattle, and ensures none of us see the seahawks with the bowl, super bowl.

any takers?

oh, and go watch the game at the HUT, the only place where bobby ingraham, joe jeravicious, matt hasselbeck, shaun alexander, and the rest of the gang are fucking LIFE SIZE... it's the only way to roll.

last night I had a dream the I was a war doctor, I was out in the combat zone grabbing a fallen soldier and his side had been cut open. I was knelt down on my knees to examine him. I had no supplies, so I used my bare hands to stop the bleeding (just like how I was trained in real life). then in the dream, I look down at my hands and they are covered in blood.  so then I wake up, thinking about this dream, trying to shake it off, and right as i'm getting out of bed I notice that my hands are wet, no, not just wet, but bloody. my hands are fucking bloody in real life! freakiest thing ever.

turns out I cut myself with my watch... (it has a big pointy part, i'll show you) along my left side. I did it while I was sleeping. there was a pillow underneath me (elevation) lots of blood, but pressure marks, and other signs of correct emergency training. (yay!) i'm really happy that my EMT training is so natural, I can literally do it in my sleep.  still though, increadibly freeky.

 
 
I feel so : sore

so, I was kind of bored this morning, and after an odd string of events, I learned how to make Windows icons... and thought I'd do an experimental set with the wonderful faces of Jet City Improv (and their dog's).  These are not the actual icons, just the .jgp images of them, if you want the actual icons for use on your own computer, comment and I'll email them to you!

Phone call with a family friend (f).
Buddee = My dog


me-hello?
f-hey how are you?
me-good, I just got home from practice, am soaking wet and am grabbing a bite to eat before bed... you?
f-I'm doing alright, is your mom home?
me-no, would you like me to leave a message?
f-no, that's ok, just wanted to say that I'm sorry about Buddee
me-WHAT ABOUT BUDDEE?!?!?! *scans the room looking for him*
f-oh, your mom hasn't told you yet?
me-TOLD ME WHAT?!

After a few hours of stressful waiting, I found out that my mom had to put our dog down yesterday. It turns out he had cancer and no one knew. totally unexpected. I miss him a lot.
