Slightly random thoughts:
now back from a portland expidition: went down at six with Riley, Becca, and Zach (who has decided to come back with us for thanksgiving). Completed my interview with a bum (actually four bums)... a very interesting experience... I wrote notes in pioneer square in the center of town. They have two places that you can stand and talk to yourself for perfect acoustics... VERY cool... yelled at some religious yellers and then walked around town for a bit with a video camera to shoot some random scenes. rode the mall escalators for a while, then got in a fake fight with riley that ended up with my face plastered up agianst a window right next to someone's dinner table... becca left and we three hooligans continued across the river... had a huge argument about how high the bridge was (riley wanted to jump, I said it was higher than he thought... I won the argument later on in the evening). then flattened pennies and other metal objects by the railroad. proceeded thirty blocks to a friend's house in the hippy district of portland. played video games and ate gudah cheese for an hour before returning to school to eat the pie and pizza we stole at dinner this evening. I think a song should be written about it all... maybe I'll do it tonight... two midterms down and one to go... I'm not sure if I can really write a 12 page paper... riley and zach attempted to steal a five gallon jug of Ice Cream and pan of pizza DURING dinner wednesday night and were politely (during the process) asked by the dean of students to return it so as to avoid any "follow up"... (I love this place)... and even cooler, later that night they found a way into the bon through the ceiling and took two huge things of cereal, three gallons of milk and a five gallon tub of Ice Cream.... mmmmmm... I think I'm going to start a "journal of good times" because there are so many that I'm not even going to remember, and thats sad... before I can do that, I must sleep.......(...)
