College, Take 1

Posted in Day to Day on August 23, 2008 by davidzemke

So college is supposed to be all about discovering things about yourself right? Well apparently I am a very impatient person. After all, this is only my third day here, and I feel dissapointed with myself that I haven’t really made any new friends yet. It just bothers me that somehow other people have gone out and just randomly made new friends when I would definitely try, but haven’t really gotten the chance. I mean maybe I’m just not outgoing enough (I can’t believe I’m saying that) but I can’t just walk up to a person and say “hey, do you wanna hang out later?” I don’t know, I feel like thats just kinda unwanted.

So I don’t know how this is going to work. Maybe once classes actually start up things will change? I’ll keep you all posted…well anyone who reads this that is.

Joseph Recap

Posted in Summer Show on August 21, 2008 by davidzemke

I just realized I haven’t been on here in so long that I didn’t update how the summer show went. It was REALLY good. Everyone did a wonderful job and the brothers especially kicked ass with our harmonies and everything. Basically, if you didn’t see it, you really missed out. Dan Shaw was spectacular as Joseph, and we got a standing ovation every night. So think about that next time you’re debating whether or not to come to a show.

The Campus Life For Me

Posted in Day to Day, Rants/Life Lessons on August 21, 2008 by davidzemke

Well I was really looking forward to this, being on my own, no parents with rules, and the fact that I would be making my own decisions. Little did I know that something I’ve hated all my life would come back once again to ruin my plans. First of all I’d just like to say upfront that I’m not stereotyping all football players into this category, but me and Dan got stuck in the athletic dorm, and our hallway is full of the most shit-faced football meat heads you’ve ever met. Basically it’s going to be a long year with these assholes living in our hall, and I’m really not looking forward to all the crap I’m gonna have to deal with.

Other than that though, college life seems pretty alright. Stayed up till 1 at our friend Megan’s dorm just talking about stuff which was really cool. Not to mention no one calling and asking when you’re going to be home and everything. I mean I knew this was how it was gonna be but, it’s still bizarre to actually feel it.

Basically if I can survive the dousche bags down the hall, this should turn out to be a pretty good first year. I miss all my friends though, and I can’t wait to see you all on breaks.
