skype, that useless slut

i can't get skype to record my voice. i can hear other people talk no problem but i've tried two different headsets (i just bought a new one) and neither has worked. oh well i'm pretty pissed off at it, it might have something to do with my 64 bit operating system but i really don't think so since i've tried it on my friends laptop with the same mic and it didn't work. maybe it's my sound card but i doubt that too. however i do know other programs that do work if anyone ever wants to ;P

autumn

so i was walking back to my dorm from class through the rain today, about 5-10 minutes walk, and i was reminded heavily of mountain biking in the hills of England in the rain. mmm it was beautiful. i love walking through the rain, just in my normal clothes without a care in the world letting the rain pour down on me like some sweet refreshment to my soul. mm mountain biking in the freezing rain through the hills of england was probably one of the funnest (yeah yeah most fun) things i think i did all year. especially when you go to the top of a pseudo-mountain and look off into the endless rolling hills dominated by a never ending sheet of dark clouds. then race down the mountain in the rain drenched in an icyness that only enhances the experience. as much as you desire warmth you love the rush of freezing wind on your water soaked clothing as you try desperately to get back. haha then someone's tire went flat, i don't remember exactly who.. sorry :P but we had a fun time walking to a gas station, and i actually fixed a flat tire. like i patched it up it was pretty sweet i've never done that before heh.
yeh so anyway it's only 11 am but i'm done with classes today, time to go find some longsleeve shirts at my house, since i didn't bring any to my dorm (mmm it's so warm here hah to all of you in the cold northwest and cananadia). this song reminds me of today, i was just listening to it. it's one of my favorites.

Haste The Day - Autumn

red leaves blow in the wind
leaving home and everything it's known behind
barren branches wave goodbye
as the red leaves slowly die
every flower stares and watches
as the wind takes me away
before the sun shone upon me
now the wind takes me away
red leaves falling
through the branches
making their way to the ground
blowing by the flowers sleeping
no one knows the leaves are leaving

i love autumn, this time of year is awesome.

coming soon to a theater near you

yeah so i finally made one of these things. i guess i could start it with what i did this weekend. um well i was in an ultimate frisbee tournament, seeding games on saturday and tournament on sunday, we got second. i did alright. i'm pretty tired and sore, each game lasts over an hour, we played 6, 3 sat 3 sun, all in a row. yeh so i feel and am talking like i'm stoned. but i'm not of course. hangin out with too many people who sound stoned (ultimate frisbee players).
oh here's one of our ultimate cheers we do in a huddle during a time out or before a game or half or something. i'll censor it for the kids: "(1 person) ROCK OUT MOTHA ***** WITH YA **** OUT ***** (everyone else) DON'T START NO **** WON'T BE NO ****! (repeat all 3 times then yell) OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH.. YOU KNOW!"
it's been stuck in my head all day.
