hey ya!

the past five days have been a blur, from thursday on. we played at the pier, then we played at berkeley iceland for big freeze (too bad stanfurd's hockey team isn't as good as their... oh wait, never mind). after that, the phonez and the bones and the baritones all guarded the general vicinity of brh (after a full day of, um, stealing the tree thanks to rally comm), and then, i got two hours of sleep.

i soon went to the berkeley breakfast club, followed by the day city bus, and onward to the bonfire. nothing too spectacular; been there, done that. but it was cool seeing a few people's faces light up -- both literally and figuratively -- when the bonfire erupted, as well as at the end of the rally with the candle stunt and when we all danced to "hey ya" over the loudspeakers.

then, wake up at four in the morning to get to the buses on time... on our way to stanfurd, everyone crashed, the warmth of the bus making the ride oh-so-nice. rehearsal, lunch, march-up; then, the game.

the most frustrating first half ever, if i may say so.

then, the ass-kicking commenced, when we finally ended up twenty-eight to sixteen, the whole cal section "busting" and "exploding" with cheers and hugs and all sorts of yelling. the riot police were brought in, et cetera, ad nauseum, more exuberance outside the stadium. a bunch of us ended up playing for the spiekers (the rich family who gave us a really nice aquatics center), and then, we got back home.

night after night after morning, the sky was just dark. i wouldn't even remember what day of the week it was since it was so confusing. once i got back from the spiekers, i crashed, from nine in the evening to four in the afternoon. (yup. so much sleep.)

thanksgiving dinner at th was, as always, awesome. soon after i got there the sky was dark again. meh.

now it's monday, and i've just finished one of my midterms to be completed. i'm not going home for thanksgiving, but that doesn't mean i can't skip all my wednesday classes like the rest of the world, right?

"don't try to fight the feeling cos the thought alone is killing me right now"

hey ya!
