Great Nerds think alike

Ohayoo.(morning)

hello for whatever time you happen to be reading this

So.... everyone else has a blog so i guess i gotta make one as well.

The first week of ISU has been pretty good. Passages was pretty much pointless, but the hypnotist was amusing. The only class I've really done anything in is Japanese, which also happens to be my favorite class so far. The teacher is super nice and all the people in the class are really cool. So far we've learned basic greetings and 30 hiragana letters. We've done absolutely nothing in my other classes.

On another note(or more accurately the same one), I have found people to start a D&D group with and have been convinced to join Medieval Combat Club...through people in my Japanese class. The D&D group will probably have a couple rookies, but also good veterans so things should be fine. After class today, I followed my new friends to the the quad where all the clubs were set up including-Combat Club! If you don't know what this is , it's where you take foam weapons and try to kill your friends with them. I joined a couple fights and I didn't do too bad. I also learned Viking Football("catch" with a javelin) which started too teach me how to weild a javelin. I'm going back out there pretty soon so I gotta close up for today. See you next time, Same cheese time! Same cheese channel!

Foam swords - probably good exercise!

I'll bet you didn't know your Mom has instructions for those foam weapons as well as costumes to go with it. Sometime when you are home you'll have to take a look!

That sounds like a lot of fun, Ry. I signed up for Model UN and College Democrats and turned in a volunteer application for the Girl Scout council down here. I know Kathy and I want to get a D&D group together, preferrably HackMaster or Blue Rose, but we'll see what happens with that.

That bit about following your new friends--sounds a bit like a stalker there. Hopefully you were invited :) Sounds like you're having fun anyway!

Matt and I have a buddy Tom that does that foam-fighting thing. He made his own armor and everything. Should you ever go visit Matt, you should talk to him about technique or something.
