People rule! Man, I am so blessed to have so many strong relationships in my life. Close friends I go through everthing with. Parents who love and support me in every way. Mentors who I turn to for advice on an almost daily basis. Peers who I am supposed to be mentoring who inspire me. Roommates who keep things light and teach me about little things in life. Friends who are always there to

I went off my first jumps in the terrain park and by and large landed them, which cause me to feel like the mack. Until I fell off the chair lift on the subsequent trip up. Dang.. a little embarassing. -The drive

YARRRRRR For some reason I felt like combining a somewhat-serious entry with a ridiculous picture. So I was at this candlelight vigil today for the tsunami victims. It's been really easy to just pretend like this never happened, because I was on vaction when it did, and I didn't know anyone that was personally affected (or if I do, they haven't told me). I was finally able to have a moment of

Don't let anybody get in your way A couple quick thoughts I wanted to get down before they jumped away: - The UW Leaders retreat was sweet! Again, an amazing experience. This year was a little different. Last year I was looking to find my place. This year I felt profoundly that this WAS my place, and I tried as hard as I could to ensure that others also found their place. People continue to

Life of Craig circa 2005 Well, in the interest of time and so that I may better keep the attention of faithful reader Samantha Wong, I'm going to keep this short. -Had a great vacation, seeing many friends from other schools and also friends from UW I don't get to see much -Went to 4 UW BBall games and the Welcome to Romarville sign is getting ridiculous amounts of airtime. It is officially

It was a busy night, and I didn't have the time to spare, but I couldn't sit in my chair any longer and my mind was racing. Why had I been so angry during the day? Why did I let little things bother me? How was I still so overwhelmed despite spending time with some of the people who make me the calmest? The original plan was a short bike ride around the block, just to move my legs a bit. I put

Hekka Hekka Koolas Our glorious flag football season has come to an end. Today we lost a hard fought match in the rain 14-13. It was a pretty tough game, our opponents were up 14-7 with about 1:30 left when Jamie managed to scramble for a touchdown. Down 14-13, we decided to go for one but fell short. We only had 8 people to start the game, so only one sub, and then Jonathan went down in the

It's official, Facebook is ridiculous To give you an example of the extent to which thefacebook.com wastes my time, I started a group tonight called People Named Craig, and proceeded to invite every UW member with Craig as either a first or last name to join. This autographed card of former NBA player (and SuperSonic) Craig Ehlo is our logo. On the other hand, it is a nice thing to not have

As if you have a choice I just went to probably the first actually fun party where I came home feeling like "that was a dandy time", props to Mark Horozowski. Dressing up + good friends + small setting = fun. Things are looking good (I hope? At least somewhat promising, maybe?) with a certain someone. Really cute, really smart, really funny, a little quirky in a good way.. dang.. I still feel

a few quick, random thoughts: - don't take for granted the blessings that surround you every day in your search for more - don't stop searching for more - it's funny how people change - God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change - My room can go from neat to disaster zone in a mere two days - Casey Paus is probably the worst UW quarterback ever - I have a schoolboy

Peace Up. A-Town Down. I really don't know what to say about the election. Obviously, I was very passionate about it and I have been kind of walking around in a bit of a haze lately. I don't know if it's really hit me yet, it's all like a bad dream. I'm having a hard time contemplating the fact that something I could believe in so firmly and see as so obvious could not be the majority opinion.

Ain't puttin my head on no pillow Thursday night was, I believe, the first all-nighter I have ever had to pull. So I had that lab report that was hasslin' me for a couple weeks. Well, a couple IMA bball games here, a couple World Series game there, and soon you've got one big mess on your hands. Despite making serious strides toward my report earlier in the week I found myself getting home from

RED SOX WIN!!!!! The most amazing comeback in sports history gave way to one of the most dominating team performances in World Series history. For providing hours of agonizing and triumphant entertainment, I thank the Red Sox. For causing me to lose countless hours toward my lab report and other homework, curse you, Red Sox! Well... maybe not curse. But dang it, it's gonna be a long night.

What am I doing?? I have a CEE 363 (Construction Materials) midterm tomorrow morning, actually in 9.5 hours, that I feel reasonably well prepared for. But also looming is the fact that I have a huge lab report, of which I have very little done, due on Friday. I also have another midterm on Friday, and a couple assignments due in between. Even though I have all this stuff to do I've found it

RED SOX WIN! Hats off to Johnny Damon I gotta tell ya, I didn't believe, when the Yankees went up during game 4, that this was remotely possible. "Time to start rooting for the Cardinals," I said to Ryan, who scoffed. But seriously, for a team like the Red Sox with a history of Couging it, why should I believe? This team though, they have something special going on. Perhaps I identify with

I have decided to start back up the blog. Although the thumbs-up webpage may be getting neglected even more, that's ok. I have a secret project in the works when I get some freetime that should far surpass the thumbs-up. It has been far too long since my last post to even attempt to fill in my life.

I really feel no obligation to update my blog for either of you, but I do want to create a record of what's been going down lately. Bear with me, this will probably be a long one.

Cicada Madness! One great aspect of the Pacific Northwest is the lack of insects and bugs. However, we are currently missing out on the once-every-17 years amazing life cycle of the Cicada. I was previously rather uninformed until I found this website. It has lots of pictures and tidbits, I suggest you check it out: What the Cicada is Going On!?

HW Festival instead of Folklife Festival So this weekend has been alright, considering it's mostly been spent doing homework. I just got back from an extremely unproductive TA session.. trying to get some help with a couple very hard problems for civil engineering and this TA guy, who I've never seen before, just frustrated the crap out of me. Not only did he really not know how to do the

Cut the stargazin yo, move somethin! Two words: Talib Kweli. Two more words: Hip Hop. Two more words: Amazing Show. It's been a long time since I've been at a truly amazing hip hop show. For those of you in the know, there is really nothing comparable to being in a sea of people waving hands in unison to the heart pounding rythmns of a thumping beat, soaking up every word that a gifted rapper

I got a virus. My wonderful connection to the UW Ethernet has picked me up a nice little virus, and so I can't get on any non-UW website, nor can I go on Instant Messanger, or any of that good stuff. So right now I'm in Ian's Domain. I probably will not be updating with any regularity any time soon, I need to figure out a way to back up all my files and reformat. [Edit] My RA Justin hooked me

I need transcendance. I need that underlying that nothing in this world is really going to rattle my foundations, shake my dreams, throw me off my path. I can't live my life in a boom-and-bust cycle, that's not me. There are going to be times that are infinitely more stressful than others, and times when I will feel like I have just reached a level of contentment, a job well done. I want to feel

Well, its been a while since I've blogged much. So since so much stuff is going on with school, ASUW, IMA sports, and various other hijinks, I'm just gonna skip on over my weekend and week. I finished my first round of midterms this morning so I have a little time this week to enjoy the... cloudy weather. Nate Robinson Haiku (As seen in McCarty Floor One Bathroom) What? Nate to go pro?

People who say one thing and do another, or people who profess some ideal but don't live up to it really piss me off. I'm sure we're all guilty of it sometimes. But don't crusade against something only to turn around and become that thing later. There's two kinds of words in this world: your word, and the word of others. You better live up to your own word. If you don't live up to other's words,

. Today I went to the career fair in the HUB Ballroom. The minute I walked in, I saw probably 10 people dressed exactly like me. The room was sweltering, everybody fussing with their resumes and making sure their hair was right and sweating over who was going to help them advance their careers or make their resumes look better for the next career fair. I was one of them, and I didn't like it.

Well the verdict is in, thank you for all the replies. The winner (which was decided on before the poll even took place) is of course E, a combination of C and D. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.. not too drastic but well on my way to becoming a surf lookalike.

Thursday was a most unproductive day homework wise, but a pretty good day otherwise. The bike ride was sweet, we ended up going to the Ballard Locks, which was a pretty long ride for not having done anything for a while. I got super hungry though, so basically sprinted up from the Burke-Gilman to 8 to grab some pasta, which I inhaled. Pat predicted that I would get a stomach ache, and he was

Flavor of the day: Sprite Remix Berryclear flavor. I tell ya, I had some of this today, and it is good. I think regular Sprite is ok. Sprite Remix:Tropical was aiight. But this stuff... it is pretty dang good. Recommended. Fix of the day: After popping my back tire in the waning moments of fall quarter and having no bicycle for all of winter quarter, I finally got my act together and dropped it

The smell has returned. I just had my first ever IMA soccer game, for the Face-Slappers. We're a Ranier (easiest level) team that has to play in the Olympic (graduate) division, meaning we're going to be playing some pretty tought competition. I think we'll be up to it, although we lost 5-1 today, we showed some promise. I had some decent saves, but definitely need to work on my kicking. Also, I

Here's what I did to celebrate: After school on friday, Pat, Brandon and I took the ol' bus up to Everett. Brandon, being from Spokane, was shown around the lovely city (actually I'm kind of serious, it's

Hello everybody. I hope spring break went well and everything. My spring quarter is gonna be pretty packed. I'm taking Civil Engineering 220, Mechanical Engineering 230, Math 307, and a class entitled HIV/AIDS Issues and Challenges. It looks to be pretty interesting, so far I can definitely say that Civil Eng. is way cooler than Mech. Eng, but unfortunately both of my TAs are very

My RA is the anti-Matt Bishop. Wanna know how lame this guy is? In a desparate rush to get enough events in for the quarter (I doubt he is even close) he tagged along to a Mark-organized trip to the Mongolian Grill and called it an event, Mark tells me. Besides the fact that people like me who weren't on the floor at that time had no way of knowing about this "event", there's just so many things

. Just returned from a pretty productive physics studying session in Odegaard. I felt in the zone, too bad the library closed. I relish those really in-focus times when you leave feeling pretty juiced up. Maybe next quarter I'll focus on obtaining those more often and having to spend less time studying. It seems that work will fill up the time it's given to do though, so who knows. During the

I guess when you lay down to take a nap for less than an hour and you wake up three hours later, your body is trying to tell you something. Maybe I'm a little sick because of the aformentioned camping experience, but by golly, it was worth it, and I'll be over it in no time. Check out the Quad. Between 9:30 am and 2:30 pm today, there was a noticeable difference in bloomage. It's gonna be

Wacky World of College Hoops pt. II Euphoria. That's the only way to describe this weekend, which will surely go down among my top college memories. What went down Friday and Saturday can only be described as amazing. (Pictures Here). Camping out was unbelievable; probably the closest I'll ever come to living on a love-fest hippie commune, except it was outside Hec Ed, and everybody was sharing

The Wacky World of College Hoops Big Ups to myself for getting my studying done hardcore all week so that I could attend the UW-Cal game despite having a physics midterm the next day. Don't wanna get presumptuous and overestimate my performance, but I felt better about this one than the last two, so hopefully that works out well. So the game... crazy.

My head is spinning from Statics. You know that feeling you have when you've worked through an entire problem only to get the wrong answer, yet you swear your method is correct, and you go through the problem time and time again trying to find what could have possibly been wrong? I feel like that right now. And the TA at the study center couldn't help much either. The Pre-Engineering study center

Snowboarding I got up to Stevens Sunday and Monday, and had a whale of a time. Sunday Brandon and I went up and I began to get more confident turning toeside, like really turning toeside every time I wanted to. I even started catching tiny air. Monday I ended up going by myself, and started snowboarding like crazy. I even went off a few smaller jumps and drops, and am definitely over my fear of

The fan section has been amazing... about 15 of us guys got the entire arena to stand up for the last minute or so, and the boys pulled it out.

Let me elaborate. 9:30 am: Ok, this wasn't quite as good.. it looks like Statics, while it hasn't been a breeze, but has been quite reasonable, is about to get a lot harder. 10:30: I took my 2nd physics midterm which had been causing much anxiety, and even caused me to miss the

When the mic is in my hand, I'm never hesitant, my favorite jam back in the day was Eric B. for President When the sun is shining at UW, it seems like a totally different place. People come out of their shells and become more friendly. You see signs of life everywhere on campus - hackysack in Red Square, Frisbee on the Quad, all sorts of sports on Denny - it just seems like a better place to be.

Alright, so this was a terrible day for the Cosmonauts, aka Brandon and Craig's IMA Doubles Volleyball team. Starting at noon, we lost to a couple guys who didn't really seem to fit in the "beginner" league. Then consigned to the losers bracket, we faced a couple of pricks, and lost again. Both teams featured impressive serves, ball control, and powerful kills. Also, I played like crap. So we're

I've decided to make a stab at a website... it's really, really lame right now, and I wish I knew how to make it better. But big thanks to Shiaokai for showing me how to get started. Hopefully I can add a bunch of cool features and so on eventually. But for now, it's way too late, and I think I better start heading to bed.
