The worst thing about prison was the... was the Dementors.

This is a great website if you need to look up a quote from the Office. Its very comprehensive.

Anyways, It has been a while since I last posted on here and this is my fault. I have not been busy at all. Besides working at Luther Colleges Cafeteria, I really don't have much else to do besides watch TV or a movie or hang out with friends. But I love the people I am working with. They are just fun and very nice people to be around. I have made a few new friends this summer. Although a few have just disappeared lately.

Okay one thing that has been bugging me lately, why cant people spell? I mean yes some words can be difficult to spell but for the most part if you are in college you should know how to spell the basics at least. On the internet you have no excuse because spell-checker is everywhere now-a-days (I'm using it right now to write this). Facebook Statuses, Bloggers, E-mail etc. now have spell-checkers. So why are people still misspelling words so frequently. Aren't you smart enough to use a program that will check your spelling for you??? I guess not.

There are about 2 weeks and a day left until I can go back home and I am excited as well as sad. I will miss the people I have met and might not see some of them again for a long time. On the other hand, it will be so nice to be home for most of August. I have missed my family a lot this summer and I miss working with kids. I am definitely going to work for Camp Minnehaha next year (if I don't get an internship again).

I have started to write a science fiction novel after watching I am Legend again for the fourth or fifth time last night. I have decided to use current events and mix them with the Sci-Fi elements that I have been exposed to during my lifetime. Its not a super serious project but I really want to prove to myself that I can write something for fun and not have it graded or anything. Well I think I am going to work on that a bit. Hopefully I'll post more here in the next few weeks.

Oh P.S. I'm going to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince tonight with Jenna and Gina! I'm pumped because I've heard it is very good.
