What a way to go into the half

by kozanack on Dec 1, 2008 9:04 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

It's 4am here

I should be going to sleep. But I can’t sleep with a Brian Pittman snap going straight through my skull into my subconscious.

To clarify

Law masters program.

Born/raised in H-town (what what!)

Didn't

It was…. 12? years old when I graduated.

Lived in Champions/1960 though – didn’t live up in that cracked out “utopia”

yeah

it’s pretty fucked up

Louetta! I lived off 1960 right around Cutten drive.

Alright

went there until 3rd grade. Graduated from TWHS.

Apologies for the comment then!

But I found the woodlands to be a wacky…. almost distopia.

by DisplacedTexan on Dec 1, 2008 9:09 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Oh I agree

I mean, I appreciate that it was a nice, safe place to live, but it’s a very strange place. Compared to the other places I’ve lived, it seemed somewhat unreal.

Plus, the Woodlands Corp won’t let anybody build a Dairy Queen in the area. That’s messed up.

The Woodlands

It’s just a giant yuppie community where the adults and the kids are more concerned with their cell phones than any sort of… what’s that called… human decency. I hated it and was so glad when my parents moved.

Lies!

The kids are more concerned with drugs. The parents with preening around and looking pretty. I am glad I never lived there… my education was great…. but the society was whack.

my older cousin was a pretty decent ILB there, and my younger cousin is currently tearing shit up, also as an ILB

Two years ago

Didn’t play football though (words can’t describe how awful I am at most sports; still enjoy them, though). I was a band/debate nerd.

since it’s half time i might as well ask: what are you doing there?

also, are you able to watch this from the comfort of your home or did you have to find a wireless hot spot or soemthing?

Slingbox

It’s quite the invention. I don’t get enough upstream at home (where the box is) to get the clarity i’d like… but haven’t missed a game.

I have actually seen more games this year than in 7 years of undergrad and law school – thanks regional coverage!

oh i understand regional coverage

i’m in virgina for college, and next year i’ll be even more displaced than you, in the frozen northlands of saint petersburg. it should be fun watching the texans in the middle of the night

i want to become a translator anyway, so next year will bump me up the fluency i need.

I travel to hungary...

and magyar is the worst language I’ve looked at. I want to learn enough russian as a lot of people there speak it.

by bigfatdrunk on Dec 1, 2008 9:17 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

russian is awesome

and it gives you a leg up if you want to learn any other slavic language. magyar could help you with, uh, finnish and estonian. how useful

by cubic on Dec 1, 2008 9:18 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Admirable

Language is tough. I’m trying to pick up French while I"m over here… and I have a base of Spanish. But it’s just tough to keep vocabulary straight.

I will happily pass the torch for displaced Texan fan next year.
