I Am A: Lawful Neutral Human Wizard (3rd Level)
Ability Scores:
Strength-13
Dexterity-14
Constitution-14
Intelligence-16
Wisdom-14
Charisma-14
Alignment:
Lawful Neutral A lawful neutral character acts as law, tradition, or a personal code directs him. Order and organization are paramount to him. He may believe in personal order and live by a code or standard, or he may believe in order for all and favor a strong, organized government. Lawful neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you are reliable and honorable without being a zealot. However, lawful neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it seeks to eliminate all freedom, choice, and diversity in society.
Race:
Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like.
Class:
Wizards are arcane spellcasters who depend on intensive study to create their magic. To wizards, magic is not a talent but a difficult, rewarding art. When they are prepared for battle, wizards can use their spells to devastating effect. When caught by surprise, they are vulnerable. The wizard's strength is her spells, everything else is secondary. She learns new spells as she experiments and grows in experience, and she can also learn them from other wizards. In addition, over time a wizard learns to manipulate her spells so they go farther, work better, or are improved in some other way. A wizard can call a familiar- a small, magical, animal companion that serves her. With a high Intelligence, wizards are capable of casting very high levels of spells.

General complaining...
It's only been a few weeks since fall break was over, and I already need another one. I have 2 weeks to go however. I can't wait though, Thanksgiving is always a fun holiday. I'm going to be going down to my grandparent's house in Pinehurst, North Carolina for most of the duration of Thanksgiving break. It may be boring at times, but I cherish every moment I get to spend with my grandparents, because I don't get to see them as often as I would like.
I've been really tired lately. The funny thing is, I've been getting more sleep than normal, but I'm still tired all the time. I'm not quite sure what's up. It might just be because I need a break, I don't know. The real problem I think is that the weekends are too short. I'm looking forward to studying in Ireland fall semester next year, they have 3 day weekends, because there are no classes on Fridays. Weekends that long would really help, plus it allows for more time to explore the country.
I miss my high school friends so much. The worst part is, I won't be able to even see them again until semester break, because I will have no time at home during Thanksgiving break, and no one else would have free time during Thanksgiving break either. There is some good to it though, I will have plenty of time to see them and hang out with them during semester break, but as these things normally do, it will be too short, and I will end up regretting not spending more time with them. I'll just have to do my best, that's all I can do.

What an amazing weekend...
My weekend was excellent, one of the best since I've been here at college. There wasn't even one specific event that made it great, it was just all around awesome. On Friday, we played a great game of Apples to Apples. Some great moments were had by all. You know you're in a great group of friends when everyone laughs at the same things.
Saturday didn't really see much goings on. At one point we went to the Cold Stone Creamery on Monocacy Boulevard. That was fun, Cold Stone has great ice cream. While we were there, I saw one of my friends who is still at high school, and we got to talk for a bit and I was able to learn what is new at my high school this year, which was fun. Then, at around midnight, we were bored, but not yet tired, so we decided to go to Wal*Mart. We were in Wal*Mart until around 1:45, then we finally decided to head back to school and go to sleep. There is nothing funnier than the things that they sell at Wal*Mart when you are awake past midnight. I've come to this conclusion, because I returned to Wal*Mart Sunday afternoon, and nothing was even close to as funny as it was the night before.
Sunday was a great day. We went into downtown Gettysburg, and looked at a few shops. We went to the Hat and Leather shop, where I purchased a red artilleryman's kepi, which I now wear around as often as possible. A kepi looks like this. After that, we went into another shop that sold Civil War recreations for re-enactors. We were in there for a while, just looking at all the cool stuff, when a group of obnoxious kids came in. They were about our age, if I had to guess, I'd say they were either from the local high school, or Gettysburg College. They were loud, and interrupted one of our group who was talking to the store owner. They left making rude comments in general. When we were walking back to my car, we saw them loitering around the shop where my car was parked. Knowing full well that they would be obnoxious as soon as we got close, I decided to mess with them a bit. So I pressed the panic button on my car remote. They got all freaked out, and started to leave in a hurry, lest they get in trouble. It was quite funny.
Today the week started, and life has become slightly more dull.

I had a great fall break
My break was excellent. It was greatly needed too. A full week to relax was a tremendous help. I didn't get to do as much as I wanted, but I got to sleep as much as I wanted, so that made up for things. This past weekend, before break was over, i went down to the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, VA. I ended up driving, because with gas prices going down, the train just cost too much money. I got to hang out with my friend Barrett, and laugh at all the drunk people at a Frat Party. I didn't get to spend much time with my friend Meg. It was a little depressing, but she lives closer to me, so I'll be able to spend time with her over semester break.
William & Mary is a very lovely school. I would seriously consider transferring there if tuition wasn't free here. The campus is 10 times larger than MSM, I was really surprised, but the student body is about that much bigger than here as well, so in retrospect, it isn't that surprising. I really liked all the old buildings, they were quite interesting. It was so cool to think that I was walking where Thomas Jefferson walked, and where he went to school. That's one of the reasons I love Colonial Williamsburg, and other historical cities. Being where such great men have been really gives you a great feeling.
I got my ticket for WHS Homecoming in the mail the other day. I haven't decided if I'm going or not. The only reason I would go in the first place is to see all of my old friends again, it's certainly not because of the dance. I hate school dances. So if no one who I want to see is going, or if only a couple of the people I want to see are going, I'll just save the gas and stay here. After all, I'll see them over semester break anyway. I'll just wait and see what comes up.

I feel that...
...I'm a little behind on my posts here. I'll have to be sure to stay more on top of this blog.
This was a great weekend. I had a lot of fun. I got to sleep in both Saturday and Sunday, and just have a lot of fun. On Saturday night, I got to do the ghost hunt thing with John Zaffis. That was really cool. First he gave a talk to everyone at the Knott Auditorium and told us about what he has done. Then he took the group of us that had signed up to the place behind IC Chapel where he took out this device that could apparently detect answers from spirits. We started asking questions, but we didn't get any answers. Then we moved over in between the IC Chapel and the Terrace, and asked more questions. There we got a lot of activity. We started asking questions, and we gathered that the spirit we were talking to was a Nun who had known Father DuBois, and that there were orphans and soldiers. We don't know exactly who it was, but it was cool none the less. We asked if she was looking over us, and she said yes, that that was really cool.
Sunday I did my laundry because it had to be done. Then later in the afternoon we went into Frederick to go to Brainstorm Comics. We got some dice for our Dungeons and Dragons campaign. Don't worry, we aren't' obsessed, it's just a fun thing to do with our free time, after we do our homework. Then we went to Taco Bell and got some dinner. We finally drove back to campus and we stopped at Patriot to get our meal plan dinner, and get them in to-go boxes so that we could eat them later, because we weren't hungry (due to Taco Bell).
I'm looking forward to next week. I'm really in need of fall break. A week free of school will do my mind good. On Saturday I'm going to the Renaissance Festival with my family. It just so happens that so is Dan from my hall. So I'll get to hang out with him instead of my family, because as much as I love my family, they aren't as fun to hang out with at the Renaissance Festival than friends are. The next weekend, the 17-19th of October, I'm going down to Williamsburg to see my friends who go to William & Mary College. Other than that, I have nothing planned, and I'm OK with that.

HE CONNECTS, IT'S GOING, IT'S GOING, IT'S GONE!!!!!!!!!
I just got back from watching the Presidential debate at Purcell Hall. It was great. I think John McCain did a great job. If I didn't know any better, I'd say he'd spent the past 3 days preparing for it. McCain was on the offensive all night, and Obama couldn't do anything except for be on the defensive. McCain really knew his stuff, and Obama was still skating around the questions. Unfortunately, most of the young vote is uneducated in politics, and is going to vote for Obama because he isn't a Republican, not because they actually know he will do well. I'll probably be venting my frustrations on this topic. Barack Obama wouldn't have come even close to getting the Democratic nomination if he'd been white. Now, I'm not racist, but let's be honest, a white person with Barack Obama's experience wouldn't have done as well as Joe Biden in the primaries. I'll get off this topic now before I really start offending people by becoming completely politically incorrect.
I'm so glad that it's the weekend. I really need to get some time to sleep in. It will really do me good. I've got to go to my job at the Phonathon on Sunday though. I was trying to give someone my shift, because I have a Venture Crew (co-ed 14-20 yr old section of the BSA) meeting to go to. I guess I'll just have to show up late. They won't mind, the actual meeting won't start until I get there, they'll be having a cookout/pool party before. I'm still sad though, because I'd really like to just hang out with them, instead of being the guy who just shows up for the business part.
I can't attend the first Honors Discussion dinner, again, because of work. It sounds really interesting, it's about the problem of evil in recent films. Focusing on The Dark Knight and No Country For Old Men. It's so disappointing that I have to miss it. It would be extremely interesting to get the takes of other Honors students on this topic. I also really loved The Dark Knight, so a discussion about it would really be enjoyable. I guess I'll just have to settle with watching it over the Halloween weekend. I'll probably watch it at least 3 times. It is such an excellent movie.

MONDAY MONDAY MONDAY!!!!
As Mondays go, this one hasn't been so bad. It's been long, that's for sure, but it certainly hasn't been boring or difficult at all. It wasn't that hard to wake up this morning. And I didn't even come close to falling asleep in any of my classes. I really enjoyed Origins of the West today, we started learning about the Romans, which is one of my favorite points in history. At 4 I had Mock Trail practice, we were learning about evidence and what should and should not be allowed. We learned about the rules to cite when the opposing council is using evidence it shouldn't. Then I rushed to dinner so I could make it on time to the College Republicans meeting. I'm pretty excited about it actually. I like being politically active, and this will certainly help.
I got a job on campus calling people for the Phonathon. Basically we call alumni and ask them for donations to the Annual Fund. I start tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. I'm not really sure why, but it will be earning me money, so I can't really complain. Money is certainly one of the necessities to a college student, considering the amount of things that require money. Like food and gasoline.
Speaking of gasoline, I'm going down to The College of William & Mary at the end of Autumn break. I'll be visiting a couple of my friends who go there. I'm really excited. I love Williamsburg. It is one of my favorite places to go. I'm not sure if I'll be driving, or if I'll take a train. It really all depends on how much it costs. I think it might be less to take a train, but I'm not sure. I've been doing some calculations, and it will cost about $90 for round trip train tickets. But I'll probably have to fill my gas tank twice to get down there. Once to fill it up initially, then again on my return trip. This will cost close to $120 if I completely fill my tank. I'll have about a half tank left, so that would bring the cost of the actual trip to $90. Making it even with the train. It really all depends on if my grandmother takes me out to lunch/dinner one day before I go, and fills up my gas tank. This would then mean I would only have to spend $60 of my own money. I guess it all depends on what happens. Although, I must say, I love taking the train.
