the epic adventure begins soon...

once again its been a while since i have updated, but due to time constraints this will again be pretty short. now for the bullets:

- see Munich - well done, and very interesting depiction of the events which occurred at the Munich Olympics.

- see Hostel - saying this movie was over the top is a definite understatement. if you are squeamish or scare easily, don't see it. if you are looking for a bloody thriller definitely see it. we saw it on thursday and the tank crew definitely enjoyed it...but i never said it was for sane people either.

- good times can still be had at Charley's. yesterday evening snowballed from damon and i looking for something to do, to a cycling get together of a plethora of friends, former roommates, etc etc. definitely good times.

-and finally, here is an excerpt from my cousin sunny's AIM profile. he will be visiting this saturday and staying for about a week here in Ann Arbor/Ypsi, sarah and i are very much looking forward to the visit and it should prove to be a great time. i found the story quite entertaining, and it merely forshadows the events to come...

1.8.06: On the eve of the sixth day henceforth, I shall once again return to the mythical land of Ypsi, bearing a flask of whiskey and several loaves of Lemba's bread. Young Sarah has outlasted the average lifespan of those in her fearsome village, and a celebration is at hand to commemorate her arrival at twenty-one years of life and her future as a hard-working apprentice in the grueling communications major. The wise Golden Child will be present, spreading joy with his elaborate collection of aquatic creatures and uncanny knowledge of popular culture, while keeping a wary eye for the Orc. Though mysteriously dormant for some time, once the Orc suspects that a significant gathering is taking place she shall resurface and venture forth from the slimy depths of little Mordor and pillage the celebration with her array of "beatdowns" and sarcastic remarks. Our only hope may lie in the fate of an epic flip cup battle waged at the legendary fortress/aquarium known as The Tank.

Addendum:
Sarah posted this same excerpt in her live journal (guess we do tend to think alike) only she included a key to some of the characters to help out the reader (perhaps all those communications & culinary skills classes are paying off), so i will include that here:

to break it down for you,
*the golden child = solo, because he's the parent's favorite, and can aparently do no wrong.
*the orc like beast = rachel, because she really lives in the slimy depths of mordor...and only resurfaces once in a blue moon.

good night <:><

random photo: one of the newest and yet automatically most treasured items to be added to the tank...the Michigan vs OSU fish figurine. i never thought michigan football could be combined with fish in such a way, but rachel proved it possible with a VERY cool Christmas gift.
