So, last night I had more bizarre dreams. First, I had to fight some dude in the ghost level of Mario 64; he was a villain based off some sort of Beanie Baby. Then I was on a train playing bad video games with Jon (who just happened to be on the same train as me to get somewhere else) and some random woman he was sitting next to. Then we were at a carnival still playing bad video games; one was called "Angels v.s. Predator" and was about Charles Angel's versus... Predator. And it turns out that the video game was based on a book, and Lucy Lu was there doing book signings on it. Everyone went inside to get one, there was also some other sort of event going on in the building, but in order to get in you needed a signed book. Which cost $17, which I didn't find out till I got to her. I had been the last in line (as usual) so everyone else had already paid and gone in. I just turned around and went back inside. At some point before then, I had said jokingly that my goal in life was to write an awesome book that got made into a really bad video game. For some reason, I meant it seriously in the dream and starting thinking of ways to turn the carnival we were at into a bad video game. Then I got an actual idea for a story and sat down on a bench to write it down in the notebook Andy gave me from China.
Then I woke up and I still remember the idea I had and if I work on it, it's pretty good.
Wish it hadn't happened at the end of the summer, though!
Time to pack, as I'm moving back to the dorm TOMORROW, WOO!

Fall Semester Resolutions
Just to help encourage me, and to help me keep my head on straight!
1. Keep a planner with assignments, meetings, exams, etc. up-to-date.
2. Actually use the aforementioned planner
3. Keep up with class readings; don't say "oh, I can finish this tomorrow before class..."
4. Study for exams. Word is, that helps.
5. Go to office hours for at least one class at least every other week!
6. Don't sign on for any extra CAP obligations.
7. Practice Photoshop, learn Illustrator.
8. Be more optimistic; not everyone secretly hates you.
9. Make friends in class. It's not that hard, right?
10. Quit smoking!!!
11. Buy a bike.
12. No more C's!
13. Don't take naps. They feel great, but that's how you end up skipping class...
14. DON'T SKIP CLASS! Short of hospitalization, no reason is as good as you convince yourself it is.
15. Hit the gym once in a while, Tubs.
16. Don't waste money on silly things.
17. Okay, don't waste too much money on silly things.
18. Go bed at decent hours!
In other news, I watched They Live the other day and it was awesome. I also watched the most recent live-action Peter Pan, which was positively adorable. Tonight I watched Sudden Manhattan at Brandon's; it was weird and had a lot of completely pointless lines and characters in it, and nothing was really made clear. I enjoyed watching it, but I don't think it's too good of a movie. I want to finish watching Smiley Face.
I move into my dorm Monday... can't wait to get back to school for the year!

America 20XX
What have I been up to these last 4 months?
Here. Let me show you.
iDol relates to us better.
Always trust the dying. Now matter how gay they seem. Especially if it's in the script.
Drink lots of milk. It's good for you, so you can flex as well as possible!
The U.S. Constitution is pure of heart.
Take that, Interstate Commerce!
Ultimate Super-Couple.
