Hey guys, first off have an awesome thanksgiving! I just wanted to share one last thing that I now have to be thankful for... I just got accepted to go to Mizzou! While I'd like to get away from Missouri, I am pretty happy to get the chance to go to a place that feels like home... and thank God for dorms... I will be seeing as little of my mom and sister as I can... haha. Anyway, just wanted to let some people who have had a surprising impact on my life and a huge impact on my fanhood know about this next chapter in my life.
While I know I'll be studying entomology in grad school (maybe in Ohio?) I will probably study something with agriculture or biology for undergrad. Agricultural photojournalism looks enticing!
Talk to everyone later!

Agricultural photojournalism
is a major?
Congrats. I think entomology will be a good field to be in in the future. Climate change is having major effects on bugs, and that means major effects on us. Whether you’re trying to save insects or kill them, there will be jobs.

Agricultural jounalism is the actual major, but I'd focus more into photojournalism.
And I’ll definitely be looking more at trying to save insects… at least the ones I don’t collect for my displays… :P

really
right after I got to ONU, I went to a party at an apartment, and couldn’t wait to move up in the world, having your own bedroom, not sharing a bathroom with 30 other guys, a kitchen, is pretty nice.

hey congrats crofer!!!!
are you staying at home or living on campus? i’ve attended quite a few colleges in my time, and mizzou was always my favorite. atmospheric sciences was my major while there, but i was mostly taking the general studies. everyone your age wants to leave dodge as fast as possible, but as soon as they leave they miss home. you won’t regret staying nearby.

if he decides to stay on campus, from what i remember when visiting friends is that he doesn’t need to bring the projects home. they’ll already be there waiting.

Best of luck in Columbia buddy!
You’ll have a blast (if that’s possible with entomology).
Though, once you’re in college I think you start to lose your innocence somewhat. We may have to retire NSFC!

Having a blast with entomology is easy...
It was just a couple weeks ago that I blew up a wheel bug in my microwave.

Now that you have been accepted
stop doing work for high school, accept for the classes necessary for graduation. I think the reason I really enjoyed my senior year in high school was after I was accepted in November, and signed in December, all I had to do was pass my last semester of English (which I took at Miami). That was probably the last time in my life, until I retire, that I had many many months to just fuck around.
Also don’t drink Wild Turkey your first night at school. Seriously just don’t. That stuff fucked me up pretty good, without a buzz, so I went straight from sober to drunk, didn’t have the fun part in between, kinda freaked out, and I didn’t get drunk again for another year. When drinking it should be about the journey not the destination. Which is why I prefer to get drunk off of beer instead of liquor.

She got blackballed (again, no pun intended) supposedly
After the Brown Bunny incident.
I think ‘nukkah is correct though, she’s on “Big Love” these days.
