Room for improvement on both sides of the ball

by Patrick Beane

BLOOMINGTON, IN -- A foggy Dunn Meadow hosted two fresh

-faced football teams this afternoon. Blue Velvet, comprised of

Patrick Beane, Andrew Cambron, and Jay Warrick, took on the

underrated Red Dragons, of Andrew Lockdall, Drew Versweyveld

and Drew Wehrle.

After winning the opening coin toss (Spaces, not Laces), Blue

Velvet made a modest return around midfield. Following some of

quarterback Beane's only successful play-calling of the game, the

first touchdown of the game was caught by Warrick in the back of

the endzone.

The Red Dragons answered quickly with a score of their own, a

pass from Lockdall to .....

Thesis

What do you think? Played football with some bros, had a fun breakfast with said bros and my number one girl (ILUVRJ), ate Bub's with my Real Bro and Dad. Not too much homework going on tonight, so maybe some movie-watching is also going to go down. Much needed break from stress.

RUNAWAY

Can you believe it? Kanye's new film, Runaway, is a real piece of Art. It's actually really, truly terrible - but in a way that begs you to love it. I think he's earned our affection. Pic tells a classic story - Man finds Phoenix, Man loves Phoenix, Man loses Phoenix.

Key lines of dialogue:

> "Your girlfriend is really beautiful... Do you know she's a bird?"

> "I'll never let you burn!"

At any rate, the music is top-notch, and my anticipation for Dark Twisted Fantasy is growing with every passing moment. I think I forgot to mention Nicki's opening narration, which is appropriately insane. The whole work is a complete mess, but its (big, loud, ugly) heart is on its (unbelievably fashionable) sleeve. For that, Kanye, you earn an A+ from this blog critic. #kanyeshrug

Conclusions

The reason I haven't posted in quite some time can be summed up in a single word: midterms. It's not a good excuse (actually, it is), and I promise to find more time for nonsense in the future. Maybe I'll post some Art or Writing onto this thing. METASWAG. That was Meta.

There are other things to be done:

> Get conditioner (Don't use Selsun Blue without the Conditioner)

> Write a paper

> Read a book

> Schedule an advising appointment with the English Department

> Watch a movie

> Choose my classes for next semester

> Have a toast for the douche bags

Wish me luck!
