Who is this guy posting?

Hey,

I just got my (not mine, but another) computer back from HP after roughly 2.5 months! I had a 2 year warranty on my old one so when my fan broke, I sent it in for repair. I finally complained at a sufficiently aggravating level during the last week of February at the delays involved in the repair. I was told 7-10 more business days ~5 times. So they sent me a new computer! Which brings me to restoring my data from a backup hard disk and seeing the link to this blog in my favorites! Here I am now!

How's things going guys? I haven't talked / seen you since winter break. Is anyone staying at college this summer (Ashish)? I'll be back in Danvers sometime in May, unfortunately.

New news (redundant?) for me:
  • This semester's been pretty good. Classes are interesting, meaning, I actually go to them. Got drunk and misbehaved a few times. You know the story.
  • Started climbing regularly again. I now have a new climbing partner for topropping again (hope I don't become infatuated with her and fuck it up like last time).
  • I'm pretty sure I'm graduating from BU in 2011 with a BA in Environmental Science and MA in Environmental Remote Sensing. This will lead me to a job to repay my debt, then off to get my masters hopefully by the time I'm 25! Then academia here I come! Who the hell ever thought I'd become (or want to become) a professor? Certainly not me. Staying in academia and tapping into the youthful "spirits" of my students will hopefully keep me young. Just kidding about sleeping with students... I'm more interested in the relative freedom of research I'd enjoy, especially in the summers. Furthermore, my favorite professors get paid to go to places like Hawaii, the White Mountains, Ecuador, etc. to do research. I don't want money anyways.
  • What do you get when you substitute the OH group of molecule of Lysergic Acid with Dimethyl Amide? Something that I have 10 hits of in my freezer! Yes, that's right. I'm going to trip balls. I figure I'm just taking my fondness for sensory alteration to it's logical end. First I deprived myself of sleep to alter myself, then onto pot and shrooms, and I'll hit the end of the road with this fun new substance. I'll probably also try DMT and peyote, but those substances are next door neighbors to this new one.
  • Got me an apartment with 3 other friends, including Mr. Matthew Lysiak, out in Alston (party!) for next year. This means I'll say farewell to Danvers hopefully for good. Yippie! One more summer.
Speaking of the summer, I'm almost not dreading it! At the very least, not as much as last year's. Perhaps it's due to my quasi friendships with people I work with. I at least know I'll be able to get some partying in. FSM let me not lose my job over that. Anyway, got my guitars, bike, climbing partner (hopefully), decent access to drugs, and even more hopefully, you friends from high school.

Expect another entry after I take some of my new substances! I think Matt is doing it with me too... unexpected, huh?
