Dear Jack,
Two exams down, one to go. I've had the World Civ exam and the Form and Analysis exam. Tomorrow I've got Music History... should be a breeze... then I have to finish my analyziation for F and A. GRRRRRR.. I HATE IT.... Not much going on... did study breaks... studied.. etc... played Civ III... slept... shat... etc. I had a real weird erotic dream last night... it has sort of freaked me out. I don't know how to deal with it... it had a REAL person in it - Nathan Price. That sort of weirded me out.
Other than that... I've a big library fine for my books... 25 dollars roughly... I'm going to Charleston this weekend... that should be fun. I feel spastic.

Revision Complete
Dear Jack,
I have finished my revision!! That's right, I have on my computer, ready to print off, 41 pages of Church Music History from Colonial America. Yeah I know I'm a nerd... what else is new? Tonight I went to study with Andrew who decided to go to El Jalisco instead. I think he's dating Lori... but won't say for sure, but he sure had his hands on her thighs tonight. Before that I met Dylan and Allison outside and chatted with them. Kevin celebrated his B-Day with his visiting parents, and I got a piece of cheesecake out of it... YEAH KEVIN!!!! The Wind Ensemble concert was tonight and they did pretty well. TOday was my last day of classes :-(. I don't know how I feel. For all intensive puprposes, my college life is nearly over... then it's Kanuga and Seminary. Speaking of which... The Diocese sent me scholarship information today... says I've been a Postulant since 9 February, officially... but they send the crap today. THe majority of the deadlines are already past. If they know I was a Postulant in February, why could then not have sent the damned packet then??? Hopefully that means they will be more forthright with funds then. I hope so... or loans here I come. I'd prefer not though.
Dani and Daniel are almost for ceratin working in Kanuga with William and me. I am pumped. Tonight Lewis got an application too... I hope he is able to join us. I think it would be a lot of fun to have so many people from PC working there. It should definately cut down on the stress of people not doing the right thing... as all of these people are impecable do-gooders. Yeah!

My Sister Lucy... I Wish
Dear Jack,
The damn internet is acting up.... we have it then, we don't. I read that it is Charter which is having the trouble. Damn that company. I guess it must be a terrorist plot to overthrow our internet use!!! On another note I wanted to give a shout out to Lucy S.. She won several good awards today from PC. James S. and Leah B. and Caleb B. did too. But Lucy is sometimes a less talked about person in my life. She is a dear friend who lives down the hall. She is the intern for SVS - Student Volunteer Services. Her faith journey has been one of inspiration to me, and one I can relate to. She also got to study in Scotland so that makes her cool by default. In other words, I just really like her, and if I had a sister, I wish she were like Lucy.

WF Senior Night
Dear Jack,
Tonight was Senior Night at WF. How sad it made me feel to think the year and my college career as an Undergrduate is nearly over. In the next week, all of my classes will be over... and I'll have exams. Then... two weeks after that... I graduate, and leave PC for a long time... hopefully not forever. I want to come back sometime and visit my friends here. In a way I see our departing as the beginning of a new stage in life. My closest friends are here now... and they are so much closer than my ones at home, other than Joy. Four Years so close... so much has been shared. There are memories too numberable to list. I also recall how we all have changed. I'm glad we changed. We needed to. We grew as people, and expanded how much of our unique selves we share with everyone around... and in doing this we built trust among our closest of friends. Now that is reaching a breaking point. Our community, our body, is breaking and fragmenting. We are going to be spread all over the globe... China, New York, South Carolina, Florida, Germany, Georgia... and who knows where else the crumbs may fall. Now is the time to cherish our friends while we are here together. I'm gonna love it while it lasts.

Joy's Questions
Joy R. Asks:
1. What Pranks are you up to this year?
2. Why were you called Roo as a little boy?
3. What was your best sexual experience [or something a long those lines, I can't find the original questions]
1. I've pulled few pranks this year, just not had any need to. Mostly we've been discussing the Sex Goddess, Andrea Long, instead. That preoccupies a lot of time in Flat 3-A. We've even made graffitti in our bathroom about it.
2. I used to play Winnie-the-Pooh as a child with my Grandma Hohne. We played at Lake Shore Park in Ohio, on Lake Erie. Roo was my age, in my mind, and had Kanga... which my Grandma could be.
3. Wouldn't you like to know? I've been with three people sexually... that's all I'm sharing. They know who they are. Most people know at least two of them. The third... not worth mentioning for me, cause... um... yeah. Just leave it at that. NO QUESTIONING ABOUT WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE.... least if you do... do it on AIM... I won't post it. cjjdeaghaidh. The first two people I've been with were great. If ever asked, I'd probably do whatever they want in that arena. I doubt either would ask though. I will speak on their behalf and say they were both pleasureful for me, and I developed love for both, and still do care about both of them, and do think about them nearly every day... not sexually... but as people I consider to be friends. And I wish the best for them, especially when things don't seem to go well for them. Since I know at least one reads this.... the other has the link. You guys are cool dudes. You have profoundly effected me, and I hope you find the true love you seek.

Scots Blue With James
Dear Jack,
Went to the houses with James S. in the old white van. Had a good time. Sean H. picked up some pork bar-b-que for us from Alpha Sig. It was swank. People were having a good time, and we had a lot of people ride with us. It dawned on me that this was my last time driving the Safety Shuttle. It won't run again this year, and now I'm gone. I co-founded this organization with Caleb our Sophomore year. It is still around, and that makes me feel good. The Safety Shuttle was around before us, but it was never an individual organization. We made it one. We made it Student Led and Student Run. I hope that lives on.
Spectrum is another thing I helped revive. The founders and co-presidents both graduated in December of the year they founded it. With them gone, and no other officers set up, the organization began to crumble. Gray B., a freshman at the time, took the initiative to hold the group together for Day of Silence. THen he left over the summer. We had no leaders, no constitution, and no organization. Luckily I helped find people who reformed Spectrum. We are now nearly sixty strong including faculty. The constitution, my main contribution in the beginning, allowed for the election of a strong group of officers for the next year. I'm pumped. I'm proud of the group.
After driving the shuttle, James and I came back here. I feel a lot more calmed down about tonight. I just wish a lot of the bitterness between friends would just leave for the last few weeks.
I had a good conversation with an acquaintance named Jeremy at USC. Actually called on the phone, which is an uncommon thing for me. He seems like a really cool dude. His voice was, dare I say it, attractive. It is nice to know there are people who still keep the faith when they are open about their sexulaity. So many tend to fall away because all they see is hatred towards them. Hatred of gays... that's the true sin of homosexuality.
Oh, looks like DW's blocked me again. LOL. Well he didnt' miss much, just a "happy birthday". Oh well. He may read this... if so, Happy Birthday (for last week).

18 April 2004
Dear Jack,
Not much going on. Just sitting in the room, mulling over conflict. Yesterday we went to Sub Way, and that was good. I also performed in the Half-Past recital. It was pretty good. I did "Modern Major General" from the Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sullivan. I memorized the majority of the words... and it went over well. Then we went to Melissa M.'s Recital.. and DAMN was she good. She was worth paying to see... I was very impressed. Today I slept in cause I finally got sleep. Then we went to Old Bailey Stadium where we ate out and listened to Southern Rock and observed topless men jumping on an inflated Titanic. Oh.. I also was to drive the safety shuttle last night with TQ Le... but he did not show up. So I just went back and talked on IM while everyone watched movies.
Tonight, yeah, not in a great mood. My roommates pissed me off... it happens. I'm going to drive the Safety Shuttle with James S. tonight... he won't stand me up, I"m sure. Other than that.. not much going on. The Matts and Liz stopped over to give us a sex quiz. I went and hung out in Essie and Marie's room with Essie, Rachel, and Tyler... Lucy too for a short time. Other than that... I'm fine.

ROTC Brad
Dear Jack,
There's not much to tell about the past few days. Let's see... um... Yesterday I went to sleep at around 7PM and woke up at noon the next day. On top of that I had some type of sinus crap all in my head. It sucked. Thank you Sudafed. I feel all better now. I blame Kevin because he showed up after Easter break with some sinus crap in his head.
Tonight we had Brad De... show up in our apartment. I never realized how much of a hottie he is... very hetero though... but very manly and was going comando, as I noticed when he started scratching himself whilst sitting in the DW Blanket. He offered stimulating converation actually, although I had never really spoken with him previously. My only real experience is hearing that he was a womanizer and that he's an Alpha Sig. I did catch he was conservative, and also unaware of my orientation, which made me more at ease to talk with him. In other words him not thinking I thought he was cute was easer on me.
I then went to a meeting of seniors from the choir and we picked our choices for student conductor. I think some people were partial due to one bad experience with one of the people, and their close friendship with the other candidate. I do not think we made 100% the best choice. We were split 50 50 for a while... which goes to show that no one was really happy with the final decision. In discussing it with a few afterwards... they agreed voting was probably done on "who's my friend" rather than on what is actually best.
Friday I perform in a recital... can't wait. Should be good. I just hope it goes well.

Easter Weekend
Dear Jack,
Let's see.. what's gone on this week. Thursday I made Pad Thai with Dani. We then went to Maundy Thursday Mass at All Saints'. They had a surpise foot-washing there which few deigned to particiapte in. Then I came back to the room and watched a movie with Lisa and Wylie. We watched Men In Black II. Afterwards I hung around the room but had a grand time. Friday I slept in. I went to All Saints for church where I did a good portion of the reading. Afterwards Lisa and I went to El Jalisco for quesedillas. Wylie was supposed to come but ditched us for Brianna who was coming up for a visit. I think he ended up going back with her, because he's disappeared. After dinner, we watched Brother Bear. Saturday I ate Pad Thai leftovers and then went with Lisa to the Catholic church for the Easter Vigil. It was pretty neat, although their music lacked greatly. After that I watched some more movies... I've been watching a lot of them, yet when I'm with the guys, I complain. I guess I don't think of movies as socialable... if there are people, then let's do something.
Today I got up and rode with Lindsey C. to Greenwood where we sang for Dr. Stokes' church. It went fine, the only exception is that we got ditched. Dr. Stokes had originally arranged that we were to get paid and go eat. When the time came to it, we neither got our $50 nor did we get lunch. He sort of snuck out... didn't say thanks for singing or anything. If he had changed his mind, it would have been nice to tell us, so we could have arranged other means of meals. GRRRRRR. Inconsiderate people. If you tell someone you are going to be somewhere and you can't, then tell them you can't. Don't just not answer. This gets me on one of my roommates who ditched a homemade meal by one of our neighbors because he pretty much didn't think it was all that important. Albeit the meal was set to his schedule and made appearent to all of us, as a special gift to us from this friend for our friendship. He was unsuccessful in trying to locate, locating, or using a phone.
I just wish people would be considerate with other people's time.

Holy Week Concert
Dear Jack,
Tonight was the Holy Week concert. The orchestra was bored-line bad. Many said it hurt their ears to hear them. I felt bad for them. The vocal part wasn't too bad, but it would have been nice if we were more focused as a group. Today... let's see... we had Spectrum elections. Michaela is President, Sarah Grace is VP, Tyler is Treasurer, Rosa is the Senatora, and Mark is the Social Chair. :: sigh ::. WE are having a run-off between Matt W. and Justin for Treasurer, as they were both tied.
I had a good conversation with Whilden this evening. I miss just having a good conversation in person. Whilden really made my day. It was great. Thank you Whilden.
I have the final "buck-stops-here" announcement that I am a postulant for holy orders. YEAH!!! Bp Alexander called me and we had a discussion about seminaries. He thinks General would be the best one for me too. Now to convince them. I am having Dr. Hobbie do one of my references. I do this despite the fact that I was dropped from his class for poor attendance due to sickness. I figure that he still knows me the best, and can relay my grades before hand. And show that I wasn't just slacking. He also is my spiritual director, so it means a lot to have him speak on that aspect of my life. My other references are going to be Mtr. Joye, maybe Chellie W. or Dr. Buckland, and Fr. Newell.
The hard part is going to find the money to apply. That's where I am more nervous. Oh well, God will provide a way. He's provided so much thus far. He got me through 4 years of college despite sickness and adversity, and 100,000 dollars worth of tuition. 50 for an appllication won't be hard at all.
I ask prayers for my friend Mark.

With Ashley to Walmart
Dear Jack,
Didn't sleep well last night -- I had "You don't own me" going through my head most of the night, but it was Maura Connelly singing it, so it wasn't too bad. Today was Palm Sunday so Kevin and Caleb made their yearly pilgrimage with me to All Saints' for a palm processoinal. They resisted singing the Moxology vs. the Doxology. So I was proud of them. Afterwards we ate lunch with Matt O, Weston, and Audra in GDH. Weston's a pretty cool dude. I am still not sure he grasps I'm gay, but it doesn't matter.
Afterwards I came back to my room and dealt with the elections for Spectrum. They seem to be going well, I just need 5 more voters before midnight tonight for the election to end... otherwise it continues until we have at least half reply. Ideally, we'll have all of them reply.
Ashley and I went to Walmart, we picked out some Power Underware for me. Ribbed Boxer Briefs!! and tagless boxer briefs, and ribbed a-frame shirts. I was happy... then we looked at some of the ladies stuff for her... we picked up a little something... then we got some compressed air for Kevin. And all I could think was, panties, and underware and compressed air.. what are they going to think is going on? I mentioned how we ought to get condoms... then we debated wheter or not Walmart sold Condoms. THEY DO. We looked and Ashley screamed out "LOOK! They do have them, they are over there" And points. It wasn't as bad as the old woman who walked by shaking her head when we were looking at the ladies lingerie. I must say I do not undestand cross dressers, cause none of that stuff even looked appealing. It looked like stuff I could make a slingshot out of.
I ate some Ashley T. leftovers for dinner. And I've milled around the room. There is not much going on. I'd like a fling or something... but no one to fling with. If only some man would come sweep me off my feet... perhapse Mark... if only he were my "type" of man rather than a "ladies" man. GRRR.
Well that's all for today.

Big Love
Dear Jack,
Not much new. I was dropped from Christian Doctrine for absences... although they were not as bad as last year. Sort of upsetting, but what can I do? I would have had an 88 average otherwise. Eh. So it goes. I had a good conversation with Daniel W. the other night, and that was a pleasnatry. I am not going home for Easter this year. There is just no money for gas. I think I'm ok with it. A little sad. Chellie and I are going to try and do a dinner for easter together. I think that will be sweet. I will also probably sing at Dr. Stokes' church and get paid 50 dollars. So it's not a complete loss, but it is the first time I've spent a major holiday away from home in a while... the only time being when I spent Easter in Russia. ALthough that year I did not have Easter, as it was Palm Sunday in Russia when it was Easter in America due to the fact that they are Orthodox. They also gave out pussy willows instead of palms. That was cool I guess.
Jay came up to visit from Alabama. He and I never got along, but we did well this visit, as with last visit. We went to see "Big Love" at the Harper Center Theatre last night. It was extremely funny. Mark L. and TQ were hot as usual. Mark more than TQ because he has a lot more personable a personality. I'm told by the Skary that he set off the old gaydar. He's hot enough.
Tonight we went to the Chinese buffet for dinner, and then we watched movies... Clockwork Orange which I opted out of and Secondhand Lions which I watched.
Oh, yestersay we were cooked a wondeful meal by Ashley T.. It was chicken and macaroni and cheese. She is a sweet girl. I hope she finds a good man... or I will hurt the bad one she finds.
Let's see.. oh told my grandma I'm gay. Yeah... who knows where that's going to go. Um yeah. Well... it's 4 AM with the new time settings... so I think I'm going to bed soon.

Practice-A-Thon
Dear Jack,
This weekend was the practice-a-thon. We had a low attendance, but those who came had a great time. It was nice to just hang out, watch movies, play games, etc.. I give a shout out to Josh H., Lewis K., Andrew C., Daniel T., and James R.... aka known as the freshmen who were cool enough to join us.
Saturday I went with Reed on a date. He took me to a sushi place. It was pretty good. Afterwards he came back and we chatted with my roommates, Audra, and Lisa. The Eagle landed. Operation Dumbo-Drop II was initiated. Reed and I were listening to music in my room, although no more movies. (Cryptic I know). My alarm did not work this morning, and I'm really not sure why not. I ended up missing church. I feel really bad cause I'm supposed to be helping with a study. GRRRRRRR. I dont' know what to do.
I wish I reemmbered the Celtic Blessing that end in "and those who do not love us, may God turn their hearts, and if He will not turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles... so we can tell who they are by their limping." That would be helpful at PC for me.

Migraines Suck Ass
Dear Jack,
Life sucks. I have a migraine headache, and it has been one of the worst that I can remember. Having this has caused me to miss one to many classes for Hobbie, and he wants to drop me. I hope I can work this out, as I enjoy that class. I have choir soon, not sure how that's going to go, as the med has kicked in, but the noise may be too much. On top of that I have had Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" going in my head non-stop without any way to get it out. It is as if it's tied to the migraine. It has prevented me from being able to relax or sleep. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.
