I have decided that I am, in fact, not a mythical creature as rumour would have one believe. I have just been busy.
The present for Alexis is not finished... still... and it is two days after it was promised and was totally spoiled by the fact that I had to make sure it fit right. *sigh* For those of you who don't know, it is a pair of moccasins... and the first time I have ever made them at that!
I have done way too much homework and am appalled by looking at my schedule. I have a Japanese test the Monday after Powwow, and a Japanese oral exam the day before. The day before I have a dinner that starts at 6:30, with a reception before starting at 6pm. Then I have a meeting till I-don't-know-when. After that it is sleep, then up for my 8:30 meeting that goes until about 11:15. Then I zip over to my room, then to the gym to help with the vendor setup. I stay there pretty much the entire time, until cleanup ends around midnight. So I am damn dedicated to the Powwow and the Native Advisory board of which I am a part because I am NAEA Co-President.
By the way, anyone who actually reads this should totally go to Powwow. That means you, Alexis, but I know you will be there anyway, my trusty counterpart!
The info:
7th Annual Social Powwow
Saturday, March 14th
4pm - 10PM
Willamette University
FREEEEE
There are vendors and dancers and drummers/singers and food and lots of fun. You can also win fun, cool stuff like jewelry or hotel packages. Or the grand prize: A Pendleton blanket!!
Now I have to get all ready to go present to TIUA students at a meeting that is boring them to tears and already going on for way too long and pretend I am supposed to be there and make them interested in Powwow. Yay....
Did I mention you should go to Powwow? Like, get your arrangements made now?
About Me
Who is Who and What is What
(kay, totally jipped this off someone else.)
Who is Who
Annie
One of my best friends ever, Annie was my roommate Sophomore year of college at Willamette. She has gotten me into a few animes and music. I wish I were as wonderful at art as she is.
Alexis
The other half of NekXis and therefore my other half. This makes things relatively confusing when explaining relationships to other people. She is my Vice President for NAEA. One of my best friends ever.
Alex
Could be referencing either my little brother or Annie's boyfriend. If I am talking about family, it is my little brother. If I am just talking about my group of friends or College life in general, it is Annie's boyfriend.
Domino
Domino is one of our cats. She is really hyper and getting really big. She likes to chase bugs and will cuddle you to death. Especially at 6:30 in the morning.
Josh
My fiance and the man I love dearly. We tend to be silly and ridiculous, and you may hear of our many escapades. We currently live together, which makes life easier and less expensive (in regards to trips back and forth and time traveled) and lets us get used to living together. Oh, in case you forgot: I love him!
Phillip
The somewhat odd, slightly dorky, music-and-film-snob that happens to be our tech guy and friend. He is really busy this year, though, so I don't get to chill with him much.
Princess
Our other cat. She is spoiled and picky and likes to eat bugs. She lets Domino catch them, but then likes to steal them and eat them. And click at them. She is the older cat, but is smaller.
NAEA
The Native American Enlightenment Association. The Native club on campus of which I am current standing President. We put on the annual PowWow at Willamette.
What is What
The Apartment
Where Josh and I live. It is a 30-minute walk from Campus to the apartment.
Cat
The short version of Cat Cavern, the secondary foodsource here on campus which used to have delicious quesedillas that I got once a week. Now they don't carry them anymore, but serve buffalo burgers!
Goudy
The foodsource here on campus. I disdain most of the cooking, as they do not use spice or overload the food with it. I have also gotten sick after eating their food more than once in my Willamette career.
Haseldorf
A place that I cannot spell but where Annie and Alexis live. Also where we tend to hang out and thoroughly amuse ourselves.
Kaneko
A.K.A. Pluto. This is connected to TIUA, and has food that I am too lazy to cross the freaking skybridge to get to. It does have some decent food, though.
Montag
The convenience store and the place where we tend to go when hungry at 10pm. "We" being when I am on campus at 10pm. There is tasty stuff, unfortunately it is all junk food.
Sparks
The Athletic center on campus. I rarely go there.
TIUA
The Tokyo International University of America. Some sister-city school with Tokyo. Cause we are cool that way. The TIUA students are amazing, though! Happens to also be on pluto, being attached to Kaneko.
Willamette
The school I go to. Also called WU.
WISH
The Willamette International Studies House, where all but Phillip and Alex(the boyfriend) lived last year. I liked my room there. A nice, small community.
Work (MMWR)
This is the Multimedia Work Room, where I am a programs assistant. I work this job about 8hrs a week M-F.
Work (Art Dept.)
This is the job that I have scanning images for the Art Department/Library. There are many rants about what happens at this job.
Work (WebDev)
This is the job where I work on websites within the Willamette website. It tends to be things like "fix this broken link," "give this a title," or "build out these pages." It is still fun, though. And Annie works there with me now!
