Well, this is embaressing.

Like, two months without a post.

Wooooow.

Well, what can I say? There wasn't alot to talk about.

Students running around like my cousins with their heads cut off.

And studying.

Lots and LOTS of studying.

Especially those last two weeks of school...

It was like the entire campus was dead.

Sure, you'd see the occasional student go by.

With their face buried in a book.

Everyone else was just sort of indoors.

Where I'm not allowed.

Last time I went in they said it was inhuman to keep me inside.

So they started poking at me until I flew into this metal box thing, then they took me outside and pushed me out!

Did you guys ever think I WANTED to be indoors?

You know, listen to some tunes?

Maybe learn a thing or two about Pingpong or Pool?

Oh no, that couldn't be it!

Ravens aren't that intelligent!

Yeesh...

And I'm back.

Fear. Much fear must be placed!

Or... Else.

Eni had to take a bit of a break, I'm her trigger-happy replacement. =3

Nah, just kidding. I'm not trigger happy. I just love sharp pointy objects.


Ahhhh...

Hm what? Sorry, dreamworld experience.

Well, I'm currently sick, or at least coughing with a dry throat, so stay away from the top floor in Neuman!

Or... Else!

I'll cough on you. o.o

Relationship Tip for Guys

Guys, when she doesn't tell you something don't worry. Ever. Just forget about it. It's not the end of the world. You never know what she is hiding from you and your assumptions are usually wrong. So just relax and don't go crazy and forget about it. Obviously some girls are going to hide many things. But I tell you that it's not nearly as big of a deal as you think.

Relationship Tip for Girls

Well, a major problem that usually occurs is trust. Your guy wants to trust you. You want him to trust you. So how do you gain this trust? By proving to him that you are trust worthy. I'm sorry, but if you hide things and expect him to trust that what your hiding is insignificant your wrong. If he is about to see something you don't want him to, don't take it away really quick. Don't erase it. Don't worry. It's not the end of the world. There should be absolutely no reason you should hide anything that you wrote down from him. True love conquerors all for both sides. But it gets hard to trust someone, even someone you care hard about, when they constantly hide things from you. To earn that trust you have to prove it. By allowing him to see something you might not rather him see when he stumbles upon it. It will strengthen his trust because that way he will know what kind of things you actually hide from him or don't tell him. If you hide tons of things from him almost constantly don't you think it's going to make him worry? You can't expect a man to learn to trust you, if he doesn't feel that you trust him. With even some of the strangest things. Stop worrying so much about hiding. If he finds something it shouldn't be that bad in the first place. If it is you have problems that you need to sort out.

Just a bit of ranting.

Breaking my Fall

Ahhh Fall. Wonderful Fall. The leaves are turning wonderful colors and falling off of the trees... I wonder if that's the reason for the name?

Nah.

That'd be too obvious.

I'll also tell you, you have no idea how scary it is waking up and realizing your nest is situated right outside of Neuman Hall.

You see, I had a wonderful bunch of leaves blocking my view of the building.

Well, no longer.

Now I'm subject to watching these men do... Whatever it is men do.

Drink, hit each other, play their instruments, hit each other with pillows... Although, they primarily play video games.

At least, the ones outside my window.

Yes, MY window.

I still don't understand how so many boys can be so drawn to the things.

Really now, it's digital glory!

Yay!

So you can shoot four little purple people on the screen with two shots? Awesome!

Definitely something to write home about.

And then the music... Wow! I used to only hear the gentle beats of their music through my leaves... Only a few notes here and there to lull me into a state of deep slumber and dreaming.

No, not anymore. Now I get the full blast of the very odd (and sometimes vulgar) music, usually up late.

Please don't mistake me for a demon bird now, my eyes are just bloodshot from staring at the stars for too long.

Come now boys, please turn your music off by at least 10PM! And please don't play those horrid video games any later, either!

Do your favorite bird a favor, won't you.

Favorite favor.

I'm giggling to myself right now.

Teh HolyPhoenix has arrived

Hello I am the Holiest of the Phoenix. A student attending the fine college of Benedictine in Atchison Kansas where life can get interesting and take unexpected turns. Ok, so I am not really a phoenix. I am a 20 year old computer science major, who loves his faith and friends. Life here at Benedictine can be interesting at times so I will keep you updated on it. My speciality on this blog will be fictional stories that my mind kinda throws together based on things I see. So they will all be derived by a certain thing that happens on campus. You should enjoy them quite thoroughly. I will also post some real stories on my life, and occasional prayer requests, since we all need prayer requests.

Go Ravens!

HolyPhoenix

Hello World!

Hello World!

I'm your friendly neighborhood Benedictine Raven, Enina!

You may or may not have seen me circling overhead every now and then. I'm usually pretty high up, so don't worry if you've ever mistaken me for a fly.

I'm here to write to everyone about my life, and the lives of some students I observe here on campus! Don't worry, I have their consent. Really.

How can a raven ask these questions? How does a raven know English? How is a raven typing on a keyboard?

You ask too many questions you know, you shouldn't ask questions you don't want to know the answers to.

List of things to do:
1) Get Revenge on Biology Lab Students

What? Biology Lab?

I don't know what you're talking about!

Well, hello world! And welcome to the wonderful world of me!

It should also be noted that my fellow ravens may also post here for all of your reading delights, so be sure you check the authors!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to nestle myself somewhere for now.

Fall Break is so boring if you stay behind on campus, there's nothing interesting going on.

Until next time!

Your Friendly Neighborhood Raven,
Enina
