September 18 2011: Des Moines Discovery

For those of you who are interested in radio controlled activities as much as I am, you know what I mean when I say how excited I am to have found this RC track at Hobby Haven! I traveled to the hobby shop in Des Moines hoping to try out the motocross style track, but my hopes were bashed to find puddles and mud where I had hoped to drive my rc car... But to my surprise, one of the hobby shop employees informed me that there is actually another rc track in Southridge Mall, which is not far from the shop! So I went to that one and I was lucky to drop in on some racing action. The funny part is that this is like a really nice mall-you round a corner expecting to see another nice shop and you see a full blown indoor track! I was blown away. Hobbyists in this area are determined to have their fun rain or shine! Check out the video after the break. 

The driver of this here 1/8th 4wd drive buggy was pretty impressive especially considering the fact that he was probably 10 or so years old! 

September 16th 2011: ISU Soccer

It turns out that ISU has a magnificent women's soccer team! Their games are really fun to go to- It's fun to be a part of such a lively crowd! This team might be one of ISU's best kept secrets... In other news, I met CY! He's awesome. Turns out he also attends my bible study. In a less feathered fowlly form of course.

September 15, 2011: NEW flavor of Peace Tea??

For those of you who have not met Peace Tea, I'm sorry, you're really missing out! I would love to introduce you two. Peace Tea is a WONDERFUL iced tea (non alcoholic of course) drink that I basically live off of at school. Peace tea, Blog Stalker, Block Stalker, Peace Tea! Ok now you have to try some and you just might become best friends! He comes in many flavors. Some of my favorites are: Green Tea, Razzleberry, Ceylon, and Lemon.


A new flavor was added to the C-store at ISU recently-- Caddy Shack! Half sweet sweet tea, half lemonade that'll pucker your tastebuds. So basically Peace Tea's version of an Arnold Palmer. If none of this makes sense to you I apologize, read on to the next post. Few understand my obsession for cool sweet tea.
