A "Walk-About"

Ok, so I also have my blog on wordpress now. The address is www.quilnib.wordpress.com .I’ll be able to check stats and how many people have visited and fun things like that. Woot. However, there are still things on blogger that I like. So for some reason (I'm not sure why) I am going to use both.

I’m already planning my spring break. I’m going for a “walk-about.” Basically I’m going to go back packing and not really worry about how I get somewhere or if I am even following a trail. I’ve already got the pack and the sleeping bag. The important things I still need to get include a tent, compass, and a map. I figure I’ll just pick a point and head to it. If it looks like I wont make it back to school walking then I’ll head to the nearest city and hop a bus. I’m figuring there will be a lot of trespassing, because I’m not really going to care where I’m walking. It’s going to be an adventure and hopefully I’ll have lots of stories. Nine days on my own, walking through the occasional town and testing my skills with a compass and a map. What could be more fun? Lets just hope I don’t run out of food and that it isn’t ridiculously cold.

Valentine's Day Pillow Fight

I'm planning a huge Valentine's Day pillow fight on campus and I hope it will go well and that we get some great turnout. We'll see. I'm in the planning stage of it right now, but I'm already very excited because I think it is going to turn out well. I made a website for it (a blog actually, but who cares) and an event on facebook. I just need my brother to finish designing the poster so I can plaster it up around campus and get people excited about this. If it works It will be Awesome. Here is the website. I'll let you know how it goes. This was a great solution to the possibility of being alone again on valentines day, because there is really no way to top last years valentines day, but I can do something huge and different so it can be just as fun only in different ways. I have to thank my brother for the idea though.

Books I need to read/finish reading

I'm going to list the books in the order I will read them. Some have to be at the top of the list because I have to read them for classes. I wont list any books I don't yet own and I suspect I will be buying lots of books this semester mostly for myself and not classes. (this is going to be continuously updated and I'll probably add a list on the side of the blog) The ones in Orange are done.

Adams Fall
We Are Our Mother's Daughters
