Wowweezz... wut a psychology class. That class gets me thinking more than any other class... and thinking gets me tired...... and hungry. Hehe, wellz the discussion of the class was pretty much, "What is conscious and what is un-conscious?" Of course, there's no freaking answer to these questions, but it was fun hearing everyone's opinions. I learned quite a few things in class.... and better yet the discussion included a lot of things that i think of from time to time when i talk with people i know. It's cool how she brings up an example about someone telling you their story about how bad their day was and they go into every single detail and you're just like, "I don't care, shut up now." It's amazing cuz everyone can relate to that. And she had us think about what kind of role do we play with each different friend. So that got me thinking a lot, and all in all it was a lot of fun. This class will definately fix me up a bit... if i pay attention. Heh, i wish most of the people i knew could take this class too so they could learn a thing or two... or fifty. It's food time!

Yum Yum..... man, i need a lot of sleep. I sleep almost all the time when i'm at ramapo and i still need more! Maybe it's not the lack of sleep, but the physical shape i'm in. I think it's time to start exercising! But that's just too hard and takes a lot out of me so i'll probably take the lazy approach... and just not exercise. Oh well.... Making a lot of new friends is soo cool. And it's funny how u make friends and then the next day u realize that they're in one of ur classes! It's so funny, gosh damn gosh damn. Hmmm.... 20 minutes till my psych class and i didn't study yet. Time to estudiar para la examen de psychology.

Personally, i think that whole genesis story is full of crap. But i do find it dazzling how so many freaking people in the world believe in that. It's mind-boggling... are there really that many weak minded people out there that just need something to believe in?

Last night was a bust.... watched "anger management" with the gang, and that was pretty cool. But then for some reason i just left. And the jerk i am, i didn't tell marissa or ask her to come with me or anything.... but i usually don't do things like that. I have no clue wut got over me, eh. Supposed to go to the movies with ash and frankie, but just wasn't in the mood. Talked with mariss a whole bunch and hopefully straightened some things out.... then she traveled to dreamland for the night. Then i watched some Back To the Future 3... and at 1:30am ash and frankie came over from the late night movie they watched. We just chilled for a good 2 hours. I don't know how we started talking about Cinderella (i really think frankie brought it up, but i don't remember). Then frankie kept calling his car the "pumpkin in cinderella"... it was very funny. They went bye bye around 3:30ish... then just talked online with la prete, phil, bryan, and other ish. Danae called and we talked for a long while... but i'm not exactly sure what we talked about. I know i said "plooh" a couple times, talked about miracles and luck, falling down stairs, my weedwacker massacre idea, tennis racket bashing, and throughout the whole convo danae never completely one sentence. Heh, then it got really late.... or really early.... then i slept in my cradle.

You said you'd see me when pigs fly.

Tennis today was cool. I think we all won a game each, not counting petryszyn of course. He was just mega off today. Then started making up other games. Umm... my day started off pretty funny but bad.... I woke up at 8:30 (but in my angle i thought the clock said 3:30) so i was pissed cuz i woke up late and it was poursing like crazy, so that meant no tennis. Then i went back to sleep, woke up at 1 to my realization that the sun was out and maybe that whole raining thing before was just a dream. I went into my bathroom and i walked right into my window. It hurt... i have the bump on my head to prove it. Ouchiess.... i'm pretty sore right now. Adios...

Ho Ho Ho.... wut a great football game today! Lyndhurst Bears against the Secaucus Patriots..... yea i don't feel like explaining it... we were up with like 1:38 left in the game, but then of course secaucus came back and won the game. It was greeaaatt! Had a convo about who would win in a fight between a lion and a bear. I had like 6 for lion and 3 for bear. Besides that.... drove around alil... my overdrive died out in my car... played soem football.... home, talked with mariss.... fun.... i like the word "fun". It's brief and directly to the point.

Here's some funny stories that i'll probably forget, therefore i'm typing them in:

La Prete thought that anagesh's girlfriend was Danae cuz they were sitting together at Bruno's one night. He asked me if this was true, but didn't know danae's name so he was trying to explain her to me. I had no idea what he was talking about, the only question i asked him was, "was the girl really short?". Of course danae was sitting down so he couldn't answer that. Then after talking with anagesh he told me it was danae. Also, i forgot, la prete thought that danae was anagesh's girl and that dafney was the kid that they had. It was funny as hell! me and anagesh couldn't stop laughing. Heh....

Also, i thought all the garbage in my room dissapeared, but i found out that my roommates just piled it up on the shelves... now our shelves are full of garbage.. it was great!

Hmm... yesterday.... ummm... Went to the Lyndhurst vs. Harrison football game with jeremy and jigga jigga. Met frankie, anagesh, and a whole lot of other people there. Of course lyndhurst lost. Afterwards chilled at bruno's with danae, jermz, fogs, jigga, vivenz, anagesh, frankie, heather, scar, phil, and george. Then drove around a lil, wound up back at Blockbuster where there were a million kids. Umm.... after more driving around went back to jermz house. Jermz, danae, frankie, anagesh, and allison were there. Played some Jenga outside which was funny. A very sad moment when i lost in Jenga.... i haven't lost in that game in such a long time, but danae lost 3 times soo booyaa. Then talked for a continuous 4 hours with mostly anagesh, we just chit chatted about crazy past stories. A lot of fun. Also frankie's comments can't be forgotten. Went home late ish, talked with marissa to mega late ish (i think around 6 or 6:30).... mega tired so i went to bed.

Jets lost and the giants blew a lead but are in OT right now.... let's see wut the big blue can do. (ooh that rhymed!)

Drove to ghetto-L again today. Traffic but i reached home in one piece. Played tennis with petryszyn in the crazy wind. I've never played tennis is such crazy weather before. The wind was playing tricks on us. There was one play where i threw the ball up to serve it... and something strange happened: i swear the wind lifted the ball up a little cuz i swung with my racket to hit the ball and completely missed it. To make matters even more hilarious, the ball fell down and clonked me right on the head. It was so great. Petryszyn wasn't a big fan of the wind either. I must've had about 5 aces just cuz of the wind messing up the normal bounce of the ball. It was fun though and i think i'm really getting my serve down. Aight, time to finish watching lord of the rings: the two towers. Peazzzz

Hurricane Isabel.... wut a bitch. She didn't do anything! Jeez... all the fuss and an itty bitty little rainstorm. WTF???? Anyhoo, still had class today instead of some people... cough cough, wink wink, pull of the ear. Heh, anagesh and frankie are supposed to be stopping by soon... let's see if they get lost. I'm not sure if i'm heading back to l-town this weekend. It's just a hassle driving back and forth all the time, but i guess if kevin drives down for the weekend then i will. We'll see.

Drove back to Ramapo today... but the traffic ticked me off! It took me one and a half hours to get to Ramapo! Wut the dilio?!? Heh, anyways i just attended some speech about alcohol and drugs and stuff, it was fairly decent. I have to admit it was definately better than a regular freshman seminar class... ugg those i dred dearly. Get this... anagesh's school, Pace University, cancelled all their classes on friday just because of Hurricane Isabel! Jeez Louise... talk about babies... sheesh! Heh, so then i came back to the dorm and scott knocked and wanted to play some tennis. Playing tennis with scott is so much fun. When we volley, we volley like madmen! Our hits are so precise and timely... it's so much freaking fun. The we played a mini game, in which he beat me 5-1, but it was crazy fun too. We both admitted that the shot of the day was when he served and ran up to play at the net, he returned my shot with a low ball with backspin... i ran to the ball and perfectly placed it right down the sideline.... he kept praising me about that shot. It was splendid indeed. The game was a plus for me. Even though i lost 5-1, we had 3 deuces, so the game was closer than it looks on paper. After that i was pooped, but managed to finish my hw and play cards with Kev. I swept him clean of all his paper money!

Oh yea. Then had a late night talk with Danae. That was fun, yet it takes a lot of energy just to converse with her. I want to inform everyone about Danae's wheelchair incident, but she doesn't want the story to be broadcasted through the means of this public internet, therefore i'll keep the story confidential to the other 20 people that know. Wellzaas... look like vivenzio read the site wrong... Thrice is on Jimmy Kimbel live TOMORROW the 18th... errr, all is good. I wrote a lot, hip hip hooray for me. It's all one big blob right now so i'm going to find a nice place to start a new paragraph so it looks a little neater. Alrighty then.... goodnight, and everyone use their mind powers to lessen the blow of hurricane isabel.

Yesterday was fun. Bought the new Thursday and Saves the Day cd.... they're both really good, especially War all the Time. Madness. Drove home and played some tennis. Me and Jermz completely destroyed Pet and Bags. We ended up winning like 12-1 in games. Afterwards went to watch the volleyball game. Vivenzio was there so that was cool, he's such a crazy crazy boy. Of course the volleyball team lost, but what's new. Then dropped people off and ate dinner. Then picked people up and then went to jeremy's house.

Here's the action: I started playing some tunes on the guitar and Jeremy with his high pitch voice started singing along... or something. It was hilarious, i wish we would've recorded it. Phil almost fell off the chair he was laughing so hard. Okay, then we started playing Jenga and then things turned downhill. Jeremy is the most careless player in Jenga so of course he always knocked it down.. but it's his logic that puzzled me. He would always go for the bottom pieces, even if there's only 2 blocks he would still pull one out and of course the Jenga tower would fall. After playing 3 games of Jenga we didn't complete 3 rounds in any of those games cuz jermz would always lose. Then we started stoning the loser with Jenga pieces. I hit jeremy a good 3 times, which left a deep red mark on him. That's wut u get! Anyhoo, me and phil played jenga without jermz and we had some great games. Of course i always won, but still, phil gave a good effort. Then me and phil made a cool ass jenga castle, but being the bully jeremy is, he knocked it down. To teach him a lesson i smacked his back a good 3 times... but then jeremy told his mom on me. He told on me! WTF???? Heh, of course he only said to his mom, "Rob's smacking me" and he didn't mention how he was a bully prior to the smacking. So his mom then called him an idiot because he couldn't get into yale. I thought that part was funny. So other stuff happened and the votes tallied in at Jeremy dumb: 1 - Rob dumb: 0. All thanks to joe dipalma.... Heh, we were battling that question out all night. We asked: "Who's dumb... jeremy or rob?" Answers:
Vivenzio: Dusty Baker
Dipalma: Jesus.... and then jeremy
George: both
Steve: both
Chris: Petryszyn
Mark: wtf?

Then Jeremy kept calling me "Tom Cruise" because people kept calling me on my cell phone. It was pretty funny. Also jeremy kept reiterating lines from some movie he was watching. Then phil tried to kill jeremy, which was extremely funny. I tried to kill jeremy too.... and then jeremy mooned us. Then other stuff:
Jermz (calling danae): Damnit it's busy.
Jermz (calling danae again): Damnit it's busy again.
Jermz: Is this her phone number?
Rob: Yea u dumbie.... didn't u call that number already and it was busy?
Jermz: Umm, i think i called a different number.
Jermz (calling the 3rd time): If she doesn't pick up i swear i'm going to kill her.
Rob: She doesn't want to talk with you.
Jermz: That's it, i'm never talking with her again.
Then jermz was talking on the phone and after that he was a total jerk. Kept making fun of me and phil... wut a meanie head. He kept calling us "assholes" and giving us the middle finger gesture. So of course i turned to violence as an answer. This was an ongoing battle until he went into the closet and we left. All in all... jeremy's dumb.

Had some fun today. Stayed up real late talking with Marissa on the phone which was a lot of fun. She was quizzing me on my memory and i think i failed the test, but she didn't even tell me most of the answers.... word up. Chilled a lil more with peepz, then off to Ramapo i went. Easy driving, i love driving. Driving kind of sets me free from everything. When i'm driving i feel like i'm in control, and i like being in control for the most part. It gets me away from the domestic world, it gets me away from the workworld, and it gets me away from the stress world... so you can say that driving is kinda my ideal place to be. Heh, gotta finish some work.... pzowzaas.

Went to see superspecs and big d and the kids table... but it was sold out when we got there. Went back to phil's house with marissa, danae, and jermz and then anagesh and frankie joined us. We played jenga and then charades... that was pretty cool. Went to George's and did nothing. Now i'm tired.
posted by Rob at 12:48 AM

Played some fun tennis today with Kevin and Scott. Scott's really good, but i was able to stay up to par with him when we were hitting the ball around. Funny thing: Kevin was returning a serve from Scott, and not expecting anything tough to handle he was slow to reacting to the serve. The serve curved right into Kev's privates and knocked him senseless. It was a funny funny sight. Afterwards drove back to lyndhurst. Watched the lyndhurst vs. NA soccer game where NA won 7-0. Then chilled with the Peeters family. That was a lot of fun. Then me, anagesh, frankie, danae, jermz, and mariss went over my house and just chilled. A pretty fun time. I'm tired.

Yesterday was mad cool. Chilled at George's, watched Aladin, ate some bbq burgers, chilled with friends, went to 7-11, stop and shop, fireworks, and just all the fun. I sound like aladin during "a whole new world".... says jill and mariss. And danae complimented my singing... thankies! Haha, i love disney movies. Definately gotta watch Little Mermaid! And jermz reminded me about the "good boys take off their clothes" or something like that. Funny shit me and jermz were saying, but everyone else were like zombies just watching the movie. "What we were saying was gold!" -jermz. "No, it was better than gold, it was platinum!" -me. Talking with vivenzio on the cellie, funny ish. Just the whole night was a blast. S'mores and sweet, hot apple pie! Haha.... everything was great.

Today was whack. Woke up at 2 and watched some football and ish. My family was driving me nuts though, some things they just can't leave me alone. It's almost like they don't trust me or believe in me at all. I got really bummed out and just lied on my bed for an hour for alone time. Then Danae called and really cheered me up. Even though u probably didn't even know anything was wrong, u helped a lot... thanks! Finally left home and hugged Mariss again before i departured for Ramapo. I love it here, it's so nice... the freedom and the peace. While driving Danae called me and told me the good news between her and jermz. I was really happy to hear the news.... them two are so cool and fun, just some good news to brighten up my day. Anyways, talked with mariss, anagesh, and jermz(that's it i'm never talking with her again!, harmonica-tell ur roommate we have to jam!, u think there's a trick-i finally got my pants off, cell phones-wut an invention, roddick-he cheated, KING!) when i reached the college. Everyone just makes things so easy for me i love u all! Thanks..... Take no offense but i'm so glad i'm here and not there. Heh, it's just a huge burden off of my back when i'm here. FREEDOM!..... sweetness. And i'll be back, i still didn't bring my guitar so i definately have to pick that shiznit up. Aight..... pzowzaas (it'll catch on soon!)

Friday September 5

Classes were mad cool today... intro to music is gonna be easy and a lot of fun. Psychology is gonna be really cool too. Met a couple new people at classes. Then waited on line for 45 minutes just to buy some books. I went back to l-town and met my buddies at brunos. Because of traffic i was late and brunos was packed. Drove us to Stewart's and had some good ol' hotdogs. Came back home and played tennis with jermz, jigga, and bags. It was a very long set, went into a tiebreaker where me and jigga lost. Came home and everyone was waiting to go to the concert.

We got on the trains and ish... blah blah... we got there and the line revolved around the ENTIRE BLOCK! Jeez louise... i've never seen a line that long before for a show at roseland ballroom. Heh, well it was pretty fun just chilling with the gang: mariss, foglio, jill, danae, george, margaret. We got in and i say to steve, "You're gonna be amazed. You're just gonna walk in and look to your left and just say, 'holy sh*t'." He responds, "Damn, i didn't think this place was going to be that big." It was packed. A sold out crowed for Brand New / MxPx / Dashboard Confessional. Brand New took the stage in style and Jesse just yells out Hey New York! Here's their setlist:
Sic Transit Gloria... Glory Fades

Seventy Times Seven (a verse of 'theres no i in team')
Brand New blew my mind away. They always do, they've grown and learned how to kick some serious ass. They can rock as hard as any other band out there. Aight, MxPx was next but i didn't watch them. I only listened when they played "Responsibility", "Chick Magnet", and "Punk Rock Show". Those were the only songs i knew, and i guess they were alright. Next was Dashboard and we pushed and shoved our way to the frontish area. The whole gang was together and Chris Carabba took the stage with his band to begin with the usual Sharp Hint of New Tears. They played a huge mix of old and new.... here's the list of songs they played (not in any order)
sharp hint of new tears
screaming infidelities
again i go unnoticed
best deceptions
saints and sailors
the good fight
so impossible
remember to breathe
so beautiful
as lovers go
bend and not break
carry this picture
ghost of a good thing
if you can't leave it be might as well make it bleed
hey girl
rapid hope loss
am i missing
(and of course) hands down
I might've missed a couple, but i doubt it.
The show was rocking! Very fun time with everyone, can't wait till the next show. Ate at popeyes afterwards... yummy yummy. Then the car ride home was great because i just started singing all these crazy songs. Then it just became a Disney theme to sing any disney song we could remember. I had the whole car singing... rocking good time, besides all of our voices being shot. Fun Fun Fun Fun Fun.... now i'm tired.

English class was kick ass today... nice and small and i was pretty entertained for the hole time. But then precalc is the most boring class alive. I almost fell asleep, mainly because he was going over stuff that i already did last year. Oh well, then it should be an easy A for me. Nikki went to the brand new and dc concert today... she said she's gonna tell me how it went! Can't wait to go tomrrow! Phew, i'm pooped right now, but knowing me i wont' sleep till 12. Hungry... food time.

First year seminar class was pretty cool yesterday.... but mad mad boring. Eh, oh well. Me and my roommate kev kept singing "stacey's mom" yesterday. That song just gets stuck in ur head. It's so catchy! Heh, anyways the dc/brandnizzle/mxpx concert is creeping closer and closer... can't wait! I got mad hard classes today. College english... yuck... and calculus... double yuck. The idiot like i am, i set my timer to 10pm instead of 10am.... but i'm so paranoid i'm gonna sleep through a class i wait up every hour. Good thing i did..... but kev came back anyways so he would've woken me up. Peazzzzz

Well last night adam went home with his dad cuz he was like dog-sick. Anyways, this morning my freshman seminar class made this crossword puzzle including all of our names and suchnot. It was actually pretty damn cool. I had a great time just meeting new people and stuff. Then afterwards watched Marie Kalzone so this stand up comedy called "Sex Rules!" It was some funny ass stuff. So many great jokes she was making... i can't remember them cuz there were just so many. Afterwards i just chilled in my room till Kev came back. Then me, him, and Nikki went to garden state plaza. Nikki's cool as all hell... listens to the punk crap i listen to. She went to the warped tour for the last 2 years and everything. She's a business major and blah blah blah no one cares. Heh, me and kev just chilled for the rest of the night. Watched seinfeld and then ellen's HBO comedy special. That was hilarious, even though i watched it like 5 times. Talked with frankie, anagesh, and najemian today..... it's cool getting different views about school from my classmates. Well, after boredom set in, me and kev just went around knocking on people's doors asking to borrow dvd's. We found a sucker, meghan, and we took "a knight's tale" from her. She was mega cool, but mainly had chick flicks. I think i'm gonna borrow "how to lose a guy in 10 days" next... i heard from the v-master it was pretty good... he hasn't stared me wrong yet with a movie (yea that's a lie, but his choices are usually very good). A knight's tale really sucked so don't ever watch that movie, or if you did watch it, then don't ever watch the movie again. Well, everyone seems to be going to bed. Even non-college kids are going to bed so i guess i should be heading off to dreamland as well... but i don't wanna. If i only had my guitar! Gosh darn.... pzowzaas.
