Unlike some people I had restraint at Stephen’s bday party last weekend. THEN, an opportunity arose. As I walked out of class I had a good feeling. Coming down the hall I see my target. We exchanged greetings and as soon as he passes I turn around to follow. As Alex is about to step in his classroom I tap him on the shoulder. He turns around with the look of fear in his eyes. He is speechless as I pull my knife/spoon out of his spleen. The blood spurted everywhere, Niki can attest to this she witnessed the whole event. This battle has strengthened the soul of… Fire Extinguisher

I was drearily meandering my way into my wednesday morning english class and I found myself wondering why I’m in the english building when I’m a physics major who has no actual need for an english class. I finally shood the thought from my head just in time to notice my good friend Fire Extinguisher standing at the water fountain. I gave him an undeservedly friendliy “hey” and promptly sank back into my morning daze. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see who but Fire Extinguisher… again I barely had my hand out of my hoodie pocket to get my spoon out of my pants pocket when it hit me. At first I thought – well, at least I don’t have to go to 218… but I also miss thanksgiving… a fair trade… that has yet to be seen.

When invited to a poker game in my target’s apartment, I found it impossible to decline. I knew I would lose my $5, but it was worth it. I went to his apartment with friends, spoons carefully concealed in the majority of my pockets. After all, I had let it slip that he was my target, and didn’t know if he would be ready for me. We get to his apartment and casually ask if we can come in; his roommate understands but doesn’t care. Turns out he wasn’t even there – he was busy being a good student and doing homework. Pathetic. So we settle into our game, and I start getting lucky. Very lucky. At some point he comes home and watches the game. At the peak of my luck, the highest moment of the night, I ask to use the restroom, knowing it’s down the hall past him. I go to the bathroom, calming my nerves, and on the return trip to the table, slip a spoon gently into his back. Flawless. I did lose that $5 though.

   

I’ve been pondering the meaning of life and death lately. What happens to us after we die? Do we just lose any semblance of sentience? Is there a Heaven? Is there a Hell? Do Jews go to a different place from Christians?! I had sure hoped not, for that meant half of me would go one place and half another. Talk about a diaspora! So, anyway, as I was deeply involved in (watching) the poker game attempting to unnumb my brain from the numbing effect of generating functions and Stirling Numbers of the first kind, I felt my life seeping away. A spoon in the back. It felt like the release I was waiting for! I would soon know what death entails – not even history’s greatest poets could put this feeling into words!

Sadly, I’m a bit disappointed with death. It’s not all that much fun.

“Drunken Killing” I went to Steve’s B- Day party Saturday night with little intention of killing. However, I did bring a spoon along for self- defense just in case. Upon arriving at the party, I handed my spoon off to my friend not in the assassins’ game. When I entered, I got the pat- down and was found to be totally clean, while in reality, my spoon was in the pocket of the kid standing next to me! After a lot of jungle juice, beer, and a game of beer pong, my friend wanted to head outside to try and bum a smoke off someone. Outside, I notice Paul and talked to him briefly. He was going down to let in some friends, and I saw this as my golden opportunity. I asked my friend for my spoon, and as Paul came back up, he recieved a spoon in the gut. I was reminded of The Godfather when Michael takes the gun planted in the bathroom then comes out and kills the cheif of police and the mob boss, except my spoon was the gun and my friend was the toilet. Anywho, it was rather bastardly of me to kill him, and I apologized several times throughout the night. I left my coat in Justin’s room btw.

My assassin is an **, plain and simple. I throw a party, give him alcohol, and he kills me 2 feet away from my safe zone. I go let friends in, and come back only to find a spoon in my gut on the way back. I was pissed. But at least I got to kill Nicki, that’s all I really care about.

An assassin must have patience, and I showed amazing restraint with my target. I have had her for over a week, but chose not to kill her. I decided to play mind games with her, and have a good time doing it. I would look her in the eye saying “I’ll fucking kill you” or “You’re my target” etc. It was so much fun. Yesterday, Alex, her, and I took a roadtrip to chicago to go to a jimmy eat world show. A 4.5 hour car ride (traffic) to the show, and then we get to the show. Jimmy Eat World takes the stage. They play music. They start into the song Work, and thats when I do it. I take out my spoon and STAB HER IN THE MOTHERFUCKING BACK! She doesn’t notice at first, so I leave it in. She turns around, looks at me increduously, and mouths “No way. No fucking way.” I mouth back “Oh yes.” that went back and forth for a while, and she finally died and told me her target. It was a beautiful thing. Now that this is accomplished, I can die a happy man. Happy Hunting everybody! (PS- I’m pretty sure she’s going to say mean things about me, don’t believe them.)

Last night I went to the Jimmy Eat World show. I thought I was safe…I thought wrong. I went with Alex and what turned out to be my assassin : ( I had hung out with him a few times before the concert and was subject to many mind games. I, thinking he was just being a bastard about the game and trying to freak me out, because either of us having eachother as a target would suck balls, didn’t believe him. Anyways, we are at the concert and Jimmy is in their third or fourth song, and I feel a poke in my back. The first thing that came to mind was ‘hey, that’s not a finger’. The second thing that came to mind was ‘hey, I didn’t know Jimmy turned him on’, and then I was like, that’s just ridiculous, and the poke was way too metallic. As I turned around I knew it had been a spoon, but I was too much in awe at my startling defeat. I looked at him as he waved his damn spoon around and smiled…grrr. At first I didn’t believe him, because the idea of him having me and having told me about it, percievingly jokingly, was too much to fathom. Then I was dead, that bastard. I suggest that whoever has him kill him fast, because he’s too cocky to be able to proceed.

“Kill Bill, Chapter 5: The Assassination of O’Rourke” I headed over to Garner 291, assuming that my prey was taking an after dinner nap. I thought I could gain access to his room by asking if I could come in while he filled out a survery I had photocopied from class. My ploy was all for naught, however, because his door was locked and no answer upon knocking. His friend from across the hall had his door open and told me that Bill had went to a meeting in the main lounge. I went down and saw the group meeting. I approached Bill from behind, and said, “Bill, right?” He did not reply, but just looked confused. I asked again, “you’re Bill right?” and fearing that he knew it was an assassination attempt, I preferred to kill first and ask questions later. I quickly grabbed for my spoon and stabbed his upper torso. The group laughed at him as he sat there, shocked, blood running down his shirt. I took off into the night, as I did not wish to disturb their meeting any further.

A bad dinner and long day promted a neccessary after dinner nap. Putting an away message up, I was going to sleep till around 8 then go to a meeting in the lounge about, ironically, facebook. After eating my last meal of pokey stix, i was discussing the wierdness of how anyone can find you on facebook and learn things about you. It was at this point that an unfimiliar face arrived and asked if i was “bill,” phst likes thats my real name. actually it is and i immediately knew what was going on. i was barricaded by the circular nature of the the chairs. acting confused i died in a state of stupor…

“Pre- test of doom” Using all of my resources, I determined that Mike had an exam at either 100 Gregory Hall or 314 Altgeld at 8:15. On a hunch and a desire to see the SS ROOM (previously the ASS ROOM), I staked out Altgeld and watched students file into the exam room. Luckily my hunch was right because after waiting only a few minutes, I saw Mike emerge from the stairwell. Seeing him through the glass in the room overlooking the library, I causually strolled to the corner from which Mike was about to turn. Coming around the corner, only a few steps from safety, he felt a swift spoon to the gut. As I left the scene, I wished him luck on his exam and was answered by an angry thank you.

I was on my way to my ece test, whcih I knew was totally going to own me. So, after studying for the past 3 hours straight, I was totally in the zone, grooving to some Blue Man Group on my way to the test. As I approached that crappy ass Altgeld 314 room, I saw, what I would soon find out was my assassin, through the glass. As I rounded the corner, I felt a swift spoon to the gut, and a “Good luck on your test” as he ran into the night, I could only muster a slight thumbs up in response.

“Death is a dish best served with noodles.”- – Old Klingon Proverb. I decided to go to dinner at oodles of noodles on a whim after a test review. I look to my right, and who do i see to my right? Nick, Nathan, and their friend Wendy. A rush of adrenaline, heart starts pumping. I reach for my spoon, I get up. I walk towards them with such a purpose. They don’t see me, this is it, don’t screw it up. I let out a fierce battle cry and shove my spoon into nick with all of my might. He falls to the ground, convulsing with waves of pain and cold. He looks me in the eyes, smiling, and winks at me. He died with a smile on his face, that creepy bastard. I’ll never forget that look. But now, the fun is really beginning.

   

I went to Noodles this evening with some friends, and on the walk there realized that I had left unarmed. I wasn’t really worried though, what were the chances of my assassin being there. Apparently pretty good, we were standing in line when someone suddenly roughly grabbed my arm and spun me around. I caught a brief glance of my assassin before the spoon was shoved into me. Then we all sat down and had dinner together.
