  • Best.  Episode.  Ending.  Ever*.  Didn't see that coming at all. 

    * Or, at least, on "LOST"

    Anyways, I think campus birds are just jerks or something.  No, I wasn't attacked again, but I did see a bird attacking a squirrel while I was walking to work the other day.  I just chasing after it and squaking, no matter what the squirrel did.  Man, leave the squirrels alone, they're cool!  One waved at me today (seriously, I saw one rooting around, it stood up, looking off at nothing, then one of it's front paws twitched to the side; it was zany), and some of them wear collars with antennae that track them or increase cell phonce service or something.

    So, anyways, I was attacked by a bird today.  Or, rather, my backpack was, but it was on my back at the time, so I count it as a personal attack.  And it wasn't like an eagle or a hawk or something, or even a crow; I don't know what it was, but it was not much bigger than a canary.  A friggin' canary!

    I was walking back from work to my dorm, and I was watching a squirrel going about its business, when I see the bird fly into the tree I'm walking past.  It's eyes meet mine as it lands, and it makes one loud chirp, as though to say "Whatchyu lookin at, foo?"  I think to myself, "Crazy bird", and continue walking.  Suddenly I hear the chirp again, except much louder, as though it was right behind my head, and then a fwoosh type sound.  I turn around just in time to see the bird land back in the tree.  I glance around to see if anybody else is nearby, and think, "Okay, whatever."

    I continue on again, when I hear the whoosh again, the chirp, and feel/hear something strike my backpack very lightly.  I turn around again to see it go back to the tree.  "Stupid bird, I ain't dead yet," I think to myself as I move on yet again.  I thought that would be the end of it since I was a fair distance from its tree.  Then, whoosh, I look, it flies to a different tree, one that I happen to be walking by.  "Oh crap" I think, so I quicken my pace. 

    I wasn't afraid of it actually hurting me (though I was afraid that I might have had to hurt it if push came to shove), I just didn't want the crazy bastard following me and attacking me all the way back to my dorm, with people looking and wondering what awful act I must have commited that warranted a friggin canary stalking me and trying it's darndest to kill me.  Whoo, that would have been awkward.

    Anyways, it continues making swooping attacks at my backpack, and I'm hurrying along, looking out for other people.  I don't see anybody (luckily), but I started laughing out loud to myself just in case, and commenting on the insanity.  "Ha, ha ha, birds these days!  Yep, always trying to act like tough guys, ha!"  Inside I'm starting to panic just a little bit, while another part of me just laughs at the obsurdity of the situation.  I'm almost to the point of running, when finally it drops back, offering a few last threatening chirps as I retreat from it's territory.

    I guess this is what I get for making fun of and laughing at that one stupid looking bird in the zoo.

    Anyways, I finally registered for classes, and managed to get every one I wanted, despite the fact that I was late (I completely forgot the first day I was to register, and the next day was Good Friday, which I though counted as a holiday and that I would get the following Monday, but no, this university is stupid).  I somehow lucked out and managed to get into a fencing class, which is cool.  Usually all of the kineseology classes are filled up almost immediately, but that one was suprisingly still half-empty or so.  Coolness.

    Anywhoo (trying for some variety), its quite late because I'm been studying for the last few hours.  Have a test tomorrow that I had almost forgotten about (well, I knew Monday, so I had plenty of time to prepare and stuff, I just didn't remember over the weekend, meaning I didn't use that time to study like I should have).  So I need to go to bed I guess.  G'night!

  • LOST Spoilers I Learned From My Dreams
    - Libby breaks up with Hurley, leaves the island somehow, and hooks up with some other guy
    - Jin owns a car that has a dial that shows the date and who's birthday it is.  Libby has the same birthday as the guy she hooks up with.
    - Hurley is gay, but only Rose knows this.
    - Hurley is captured by the others, so Jack and company go to rescue him on their motor-boat.
    - The survivors hide out from the Others in the commons lobby downstairs from my dorm.
    - Sayid sets up an obstacle course in the convenience store downstairs.
    (Note:  These aren't real spoilers.  Or at least, I don't think they are.)

    Things Gaddy Has Fussed At Me About In My Dreams
    - Expecting her to provide transportation away from town when we're about to be bombed.  Even though it was my friend who gave me the keys to the car, all she did was help me find the car.  (Luckily I survived, but I think I was the only one.  It was really lonely.)
    - Wanting to hold a traditional Thanksgiving.  Sure, my dad wasn't there, and my cousin who I haven't seen in forever, Heather, was there, but that doesn't mean that everybody can just start snacking on turkey, dressing, rolls, etc, before the actual meal.  You're ruining your appetites!
    - Not wanting to buy gas for my car at nearly $9/gallon.  I don't care if I'm supposed to be driving Cass and Cait somewhere and my car is nearly empty, that price is just rediculous!  And yes, I can ride my bike or walk everywhere rather than drive.
    (Note:  Gaddy isn't the only person to fuss at me in my dreams, my dad does quite often too, as well as just about everybody else at some point or another.  These were just memorable for some reason.)

    Other Dream Stuff
    - If I have a pet hamster/gerbil in a dream, every single time it will either escape from its cage or have babies.  Or both.
    - It is often easier and faster to run using my arms than running with my legs.
    - My dreams will always end when I least want them to.  Like if I'm about to find out the secret to life, or if I'm about to meet the girl of my dreams, bam, I'm awake, or in another dream.
    - Having my teeth fall out is scarier than any ghosts, monsters, or aliens.  The only thing scarier is a person in a cheesy tiger costume.
    - I have the ability to enter any television show, movie, or computer game and become a central character or extra.  This works in reverse as well, going from character to viewer, much to my displeasure sometimes.

    In summary, I have some very strange dreams.

    On a related note, I figured out why I need to leave a light on when my roommate stays out really late and I'm going to bed.  Usually I do, but the other night I didn't for some reason.  When he finally came back at I don't know what time, I didn't hear him come in.  So, still asleep, I slowly realized that there was somebody stumbling around my room.  Being asleep/half-asleep, it took me a while to realize that it was indeed just my roommate, so I was freaked out for a few minutes.  If I had left the light on, I would have been able to see him.
