Geezes christ. I'm so tired. I need some sleep...
I just have to climb this hill. This hill is named "Thursday". Once the day is over and I'm home at about 6:30 PM tomorrow, the Thanksgiving weekend will just about be upon me. Things I need to make it through:
EE 228 Midterm
EE 346 Lab Write-up
EE 346 Pre-lab Write-up
EE 346 Lab
EE 295 Lab
Visit Work (remind Dave of things)
Once those things are done and over with, all I have to look forward to are: EBL match against DiE, Dat Phan performance concert, and freedom. I am almost done, I can do it... I know I can.

Well he broke another one today. But he got an ass-whopping at the same time too. I keep the foam around now to just show him that I will be pissed off at him for certain things and kick his butt. I'm down to 1 pair, the same ones that I use for SoF2 with the microphone... geezes. Well, at least he's a good lap warmer.
Blah blah blah, Huy this and Teresa that, hanging around her and all this other stuff. Keywords: sushi, friends, alone with dream girl, hung around for a year, problems, getting stoned and high but still so smart. Why do I fel like shit right now after hearing that? I don't know, but I found a friend in the windex vodka. I think it's just the feeling of not knowing someone's past and then have other people talk about it as a side conversation. I think I'll never understand that... how someone can just waltz into another person's life not knowing them, and being able to figure them out and get accepted into another group etc. I'm always missing the boat, and it really sucks.
I keep feeling myself setting the bar lower and lower for some reason or another. I guess that's not right for me to say it, but what the hell, I said it: I'm lowering the bar more and more and not expecting such high standards from myself, who really can't expect those high standards. But, it doesn't seem to work... at least not yet. I guess we'll see what happends.
Wow, feeling down really sucks. It really makes you think about things... all the questions in life. No, I take that back. It's not things in life, but thoughts regarding a relationship, and how it will forever be nonexistent.
(looking down) Well that's why I have you, little turd-breath.

Lets make this quick, because I have to be in bed soon so I won't be tired in the morning. Dumb dog, forcing me to stay up late... after this you're going in the cage for a deathmatch. I'll try to make this short, but I don't know if I can do that with what is flying around in my head.
Lets just start with this weekend. Friday night we watched Napoleon Dynamite, and my favorite lines are "Goddddddd" and "Get off of me butt-nugget." Saturday I did homework for a while, then that night I made some beef & broccoli. It turned out really good! I should remember to do it again next time I go shopping, except this time was more like steak and broccoli, haha. Then that night Darra had a party at her house for Reem and Amber's birthdays. The party was pretty damn huge, not enough beer, PLENTY of girls, and overall pretty decent until the "cops" showed up and everyone had to leave. I was getting faded by that time anyways, but Andrew, Chris, and I still went to the bars. Blue Moon is a pretty good beer, and whatever else was on tap at the other bar that we went to was really good too. Anyways, hit up Taco Bell afterwards, came home and ate it, and went to bed. 4:00 AM woke up for a bathroom run, ended up throwing up and then going back to bed. Yuck.
News Flash: Can a girl actually like me and want to go out with me?
It's very possible. Anyways like I said to Kara, I've only formally known Teresa since last Thursday inbetween class and lab. I suppose I'll be talking to her more now, and I wonder where this will go. Not exactly someone who attracted me like some girls do, but I can definetly (and have already started imagining) hanging out with her Friday nights and going out with her. At least I get to see her quite often, although only in 1 class. She seems really nice, but once again the body isn't supermodel-like or something I dream about at night. Bottom line is that I should take what I can get and give her a try... I mean, who knows. With all that's been said (written), I'm very excited to see where this will develop. Hopefully into something good. Alright, now that I've gotten these thoughts in mind, I'll go lie down and ponder these things and try to put a picture to the thought in my mind. (hmm... that sounded weird but like a good line).

Well, it has indeed been a while. I always do this, I let it go for forever and then decide its time I write something. Anyways, better do it quick so I can get enough sleep to make it through tomorrow. I'll just write what comes to my head, because I don't really feel like jotting down something I want to say off to the side and then come back to it later and inserting it somewhere that it actually belongs.
Aaron never showed up this weekend. I first got a weird notion when he called to say he was in SLO and that he will see me "sometime this weekend". Okay, whatever, but then he didn't call me Sat or Sunday. Guess I'll see him another time when he's not hanging out with his friend that he came down here with (whose brother lives in Mustang Village).
I don't really want to write about the "Step-Off" incident. Just, fuck you Greg. FUCK YOU.
It really does make me feel a little better when I'm bored outta my mind, say on Friday afternoons, to have Apollo around. The little turd gives me something to do, and no money can possibly buy the feeling he gives me when I see him tagging along wherever I go, wanting to be wherever I am, and excited to see me when I get home. He is a pain to take care of, but eventually he'll get much better. I've had him for a month now, and boy... time sure flies. I love this fella.
Halloween... that's what it is right now, at least for another hour and a half. I didn't do anything for it, didn't even go out. It was somewhat of a productive weekend, if only I had studied some Philosophy for the upcoming test. Oh yeah, another thing I don't want to talk about... my setting the low in EE 306 class. I really am ashamed that I did so bad. It's okay, I will get through the class with hopefully a C or B and be okay. I'm doing good in my other classes though, if that's any compensation.
The random stuff: Registration is going to suck. I'm voting this year. Yu-gi-oh is over. I've learned the pharoh's name. It is indeed a very good anime series, I'm sorry to see it end, but it was long enough I think. I've been doing so much bowling recently, I hope I don't lose my job because of... well, we know because of what. DSL is up for Mike and I now, its working better and better (we think). I can play in the servers, just that I get some lag spikes now and then.
When the hell am I going to get myself a woman. Seriously though, this is getting rediculous. Well, thinking about it and complaining about it right now does me no good, all it does is deprive me of minutes of sleep I could be getting so that I feel a little bit better when I'm trying to stay in class tomorrow. So off I go.

(Friday's Post)
I did my first boy-scout-like good deed today.
There was a lady getting off the bus at the transit station where I was waiting for my bus to take me home, and an old lady was getting off the bus. I'm actually ashamed of myself. She was about to get off the bus when I first felt the urge to help, and she was the last one off - meaning that there was a bunch of other people there waiting to get on. Nevertheless, I held back - hoping someone else would have stepped up, but no one did. She was going to take a step out, but turned back and asked the bus driver lady to lower the hydrolics of the bus. She got off the bus, but then had to get onto the sidewalk, and I finally acted. I went over there and offered my arm and asked "Do you need some help ma'am?" and she took it. It felt pretty good, I just wished that I had done it earlier.
First night out at the bars tonight. The other guys (Mike, James, Darien) went to Chumash to lose some money. Chris and I went out to the bars (Andrew dropped us off) after we drank at home for a bit. First bar was Frog & Peach where there was $1 Heinekins and I had a couple. I saw Zelda there and Chris and I hung out with a group of people that were at my birthday party last week. I left Chris to go to Mother's, where there was a $2 cover charge to find Jaime and her roommates. I found them and bought myself a drink there, and hung out for a while. After that the girls had to go to McCarthy's to look for someone, and we waited outside for a while until we finally got in - only to leave like 2 minutes later after finding out the person they were looking for wasn't there. We walked back to Mother's, and I ran into Chris who was sitting outside. We went inside and danced for a while before finally calling Andrew and getting picked up to go home.

Been typing a lot, so lets continue (also before the internet shits out on me).
Apollo's doing good... went to the vet yesterday for his 2nd shot and his checkup. Kennel Training Update: goind better and better, less and less whining and barking after being put into it everytime. House Training Update: going very good, he's kind of established his "spot" which is the door mat thing outside. He's going regularly after we get out of the cage (after being in it for a while), after he eats, etc.
Darra got me a card for my birthday. Wow, I don't even know where that came from... I just walked into work today and there it was. I talked to her tonight too, maybe I'll talk to her again soon. Feelings starting to come up again, but I don't know what to make of it.
Work: Greg is a dick.
Birthday was good, got drunk off my ass and puked for the 2nd time in my life from drinking. Not as many people showed up as we had hoped, but it was still good.
School is catching up to me... I need to fight it off. This weekend I am hoping to make some progress... namely the 255 homework, and also the Philosophy paper (and preparing for the test).
Mom is back from Taiwan... she didn't sign the divorce papers with Dad. Who knows what exactly happened, she said a lot of it had to do with Grandpa. Oh well, at least my parents are technically still "together".

Definetly a good day... a VERY good day.
School was school, nothing to say about that. As that ended, I went bowling for an hour or so. Game 4 turned out to be a personal best game ever. 213!!! That score entailed 7 strikes, and 3 spares. There was only 1 open frame, which also happened to be a split 8 (I believe it was a 8, 10 split). Wow.
Then Andrew drove me, Chris, and Mike home. Chris then took me to go pick up Apollo, of where I also purchased his kennel, food dish, harness, leash, collar, disinfecting stuff, treats, toys, and food. Wow, that guy is way energetic. He simply loves to be around people... otherwise he would cry. I gotta get him housetrained ASAP, and to do that I will need to use the treats and somehow the kennel... it is going to be hard to keep him in that thing while at the same time ignoring his cries.
He destroyed my shirt... the very same one I picked him up from the store this first day.
Yup, it is now his blanket inside the kennel... not that he ever goes in the kennel unless I leave him alone in the kitchen and no one is around to hear his barking and cries for help/companionship. He seems to have taken a liking to my bed, I wonder how long that is going to last before he goes to the bathroom on it. He loves watching me on my computer from there... he also loves chewing shit up all over the place, namely any electronic cord/plug that is on the ground. We watched Hero tonight on my computer... well, I did but he mostly slept on my bed. He's still there right now as we speak/type.
Tomorrow is going to be fun... more to come.

It has been.... way too long. So I figured I should write something now, and here it goes.
School: It has obviously started, and we are currently in week 2. I love being able to tell people that I only have 4 days of school a week. I really need it too, considering how the other days I gotta get up at 7 to make it to school on time by 8, and the fact that I don't EVER get to nap anymore. Classes are okay. 228 - first class of the day with Dr. Noooooo - Tandon. Then 255 with Shaban, who is a very nice professor, however the workload is huge as I've found out tonight (good thing I started early, I'm a good boy). Then 306, which is hard to pay attention to because she is doing Materials/Chemistry so far, which sucks when it is supposed to be an EE course. Last but not least is Phil 230, which is really interesting actually and I'm ahead in the reading. It is interesting stuff. Only down side to the whole thing is that Prof Flores switched rooms!!! Now I have to walk alllll the way to the business building, and then back to McPhee's to work afterwards, instead of having every one of my labs AND lectures in building 20. Oh well, some exercise I suppose. Labs will suck, as always. I have Bryan as my lab partner again (Chemistry class all over again, except this time it's EE!) he's a cool dude, and the 306 lab teacher is from China, and I'm speaking to her in Chinese. Last is 255 lab, which I don't know how it will go, seeing as how I have 2 (count them, two) CE majors as my partners... hope they know what they're doing and that it will be easy and fast to get out of, but I highly doubt it. That is the conclusion of my school activities so far... oops, almost forgot. Textbooks - cost me close to $280 for 2 books, and I bought the EXACT SAME BOOKS, BRAND NEW AND SAME EDITION off of Ebay for roughly $150. I saved a ton!
Mom is in Taiwan, divorcing Dad and seeing Grandpa for what will most likely be the last time. He has lived a long and good life, and I thank him for giving me my Chinese birth name. The divorce I knew was coming, I just still can't believe that it is going to happen. I haven't heard from Mom yet, but I have been checking up on the brothers at home and they seem to be fine.
Work: I cannot ask for a better job as of right now. It is on campus, pay is not too bad, and as laid back as can be. Co-workers are all awesome - Ernest (he's there working way too much but is cool to hang out with and ask for help because I'm new), Elijah (I used to not like him but now that I work with him he's like a totally different person to me), Brent (asshole but at least I'm on his good side), Erica (I don't like her, she's got an attitude problem but I don't see her that much), Jeff (another new guy like me, he's pretty good and I've never worked WITH him so I don't know), Robert (teacher, funny dude), Greg (pin-tech master), Mike (haven't seen him much but he pin-techs anyways), Carissa (funny girl), and Jenn (manager). Overall they are all awesome. I bowl when there is no manager around, usually after like 4 or 5... and I have lockers to check out on my will. I'm getting the hang of pin-teching in the back and I'm bowling a whole hell of a lot. I keep breaking skin on my thumb though, and have to give it a couple days before I can bowl again... but this will just make it stronger. What a great job, and I'm getting plenty of hours right now, and they are good shifts too. Getting picked up is fairly easy, Joe or Andrew or Chris is nice enough to pick me up... I need to figure out the bus route soon, or Mike just needs to get his car soon for me to use.
House/Roommates: Great fun. Bunch of cool guys, Mike is easy to live with, and just friends all around. Drinking, and hanging out, watching TV, playing poker, etc. The keg-o-rator is working at full capacity, we have Coors Light in it right now... I usually don't like it but somehow it just seems to taste a bit more tolerable. I got my MGDs in the fridge, and Bicardo as well. They all seemed to take the dog situation much MUCH more easily than I expected, and very well. I was scared of some rash "No way" statements to come, but they kind of just accepted the fact that it was already DONE and I told them about it afterwards. Oh well, it is my decision, not theirs.
Gonna turn 21 soon. Like I said to Michelle today, it is something that I kind of look forward to but then again kind of not that big of a deal really. I don't care too much about turning 21 because of the fact that although it is the last age milestone that has "barriers being removed" such as drinking and buying alcohol, owning handguns, etc... not too much of a change of lifestyle as say... buying porn, voting, lottery, etc. However, it IS something I look forward to because of the fact that new life choices are going to be made. Examples: my new dog, my soon-to-be tattoo, parents seperating, etc. Those things are the things I look forward to, and say "I did that around the time I turned 21".
Looking forward to: my new buddy. He was born on 7-21, which makes him only about 10 weeks old exactly. He is such a cute puppy, although I'm not looking forward to house-training him and such. It will be a pain, but he will be my best friend for life (or at least for quite a while). What will be the name you ask? The name has already been decided: Apollo. How fun, when I go home for Christmas, Rocky will get to meet Apollo! That is so funny, even though I didn't name him for that reason. I named him Apollo because of Greek Methology again, and him having to do with the sun and such (like with me being "Helios"). Apollo, you and I will grow to love each other for the years to come.

I keep breaking skin on my thumb though, and have to give it a couple days before I can bowl again... but this will just make it stronger. What a great job, and I'm getting plenty of hours right now, and they are good shifts too. Getting picked up is fairly easy, Joe or Andrew or Chris is nice enough to pick me up... I need to figure out the bus route soon, or Mike just needs to get his car soon for me to use.
House/Roommates: Great fun. Bunch of cool guys, Mike is easy to live with, and just friends all around. Drinking, and hanging out, watching TV, playing poker, etc. The keg-o-rator is working at full capacity, we have Coors Light in it right now... I usually don't like it but somehow it just seems to taste a bit more tolerable. I got my MGDs in the fridge, and Bicardo as well. They all seemed to take the dog situation much MUCH more easily than I expected, and very well. I was scared of some rash "No way" statements to come, but they kind of just accepted the fact that it was already DONE and I told them about it afterwards. Oh well, it is my decision, not theirs.
Gonna turn 21 soon. Like I said to Michelle today, it is something that I kind of look forward to but then again kind of not that big of a deal really. I don't care too much about turning 21 because of the fact that although it is the last age milestone that has "barriers being removed" such as drinking and buying alcohol, owning handguns, etc... not too much of a change of lifestyle as say... buying porn, voting, lottery, etc. However, it IS something I look forward to because of the fact that new life choices are going to be made. Examples: my new dog, my soon-to-be tattoo, parents seperating, etc. Those things are the things I look forward to, and say "I did that around the time I turned 21".
Looking forward to: my new buddy. He was born on 7-21, which makes him only about 10 weeks old exactly. He is such a cute puppy, although I'm not looking forward to house-training him and such. It will be a pain, but he will be my best friend for life (or at least for quite a while). What will be the name you ask? The name has already been decided: Apollo. How fun, when I go home for Christmas, Rocky will get to meet Apollo! That is so funny, even though I didn't name him for that reason. I named him Apollo because of Greek Methology again, and him having to do with the sun and such (like with me being "Helios"). Apollo, you and I will grow to love each other for the years to come.

I'm upset.
Hi. How are you doing? Me? Oh.... well, I'm just a little bit upset. It's a long story, but I'll be honest with you just because that's the way I am with certain things like this. I just, let them out. Anyways, you know how I feel about you since way back in winter/spring quarter. Since then I've been trying to figure out what exactly is going on between us and how I should be feeling. You and Manny sometimes just don't act like the typical couple at all... I don't know what you have to say about that. But anyways, I've tried to just consider you as a friend but it's hard, because I find myself attracted to you in several ways and not just physically. However there is just one thing about you that get on my nerves a lot... punctuality and not keeping promises. But back to the subject at hand... this whole summer I was just working and passing the time, and when it got close to us moving in and your birthday, I decided to do something nice for you, and this was the first time that I was really disappointed and a little hurt. I like sending people flowers a lot, and I usually get a phone call back within the day, so needless to say I was kind of expecting it from you the day of. But I didn't get it until the next day, but no big deal right? Then we've talked, and we talked about moving in early before school starts and hanging out and everything... so I started to really look forward to it. I recall hearing you say something about even helping me move in on my first day here and everything. So I get here, first day, and you didn't call. So I tried calling you maybe 4-5 times but didn't get through. But as we both know as I finally got a hold of you the day after, you were with your parents and you told me that you might come visit finally after you were done with them that night after dinner. You didn't, but you did call... of which you told me about the plans for the next few days. About how you had to unpack out of someone's room and get settled in, and I said okay. You said but probably the next 2 days after that. It is now the 3rd day after that, and I didn't get a call from you at all. How exactly am I supposed to take this whole thing? Should I just give up and not hope for anything?
I'm upset, I'm dissappointed, and hurt.

Well I've exhausted the whole list except for #7... of which was kind of to be expected anyways this first day.
Rewind back 24 hours...
I finished packing all my stuff and loading it up into the U-Haul, and then Mom and Will and I went to lunch. I bought something for Leo too, and then I got in the U-Haul and left. Almost sad, but not really. So fucking tired fo the yelling, the lack of freedom, the lack of EVERYthing. I couldn't handle it anymore. So anyways, I drove and drove, and arrived at CSUMB (California State University Monteray Bay) eventually. I was quite skeptical at parking the U-Haul and was afraid of stuff getting jacked... but nothing happened so I should deem myself lucky. We hung out for a while, and went to dinner at the OBC. Afterwards we went back to Aaron and Lisa's room where we played a little StepMania. After that we finally headed to "210" or AKA "The Quad" where we fucking got wasted. Oh, before we left we took some warm sake. That shit flowed through me like tea! It went down so easily, I loved it. At the Quad we met lots of cool people, and we played Kings. Aaron, Hailey, and Bryan all were beer bong virgins and took one that night, good job guys! By the time we decided to walk back to the room I was pretty fucked... still coherent, but fucked. Then we chilled there and talked for a bit while they smoked, and I did whatever a contact high I could get off of it. Then it was some nostalgic Dreamcast gaming of old school NES games until Lisa puked, Aaron cleaned it up, and we went to bed.
I got up, said good bye, and drove. Finally made it back to SLO. The house is great, I got the keys, and am now pretty much all settled in. My room is fairly filled, but I definetly need some sort of a book cabinet/shelf type of a deal, plus a chair. This damn folding chair is killing my ass. I also need the cables to connect the speakers to the TV. Oh and also a DVD rack type of a thing, plus maybe a coffee table and end tables. Bathroom wise I need a floor mat and a hanger thing to put shampoo and soap in. Kitchen wise I need a dish dryer type deal, and I need to jack bowls and pots and plates and silverware from upstairs. Last but not least we need a dining table, chairs, and a microwave. The internet is setup, haha I'm a genius. I can fix just about anything... the router took a bit but I eventually got it and needless to say I'm online now. The bandwidth so far is real good, pretty much the same as what I've been using this past summer at home with DSL. Oh yeah, I need some pillows for my bed... cause I took them home and forgot to bring them back!
I still haven't gotten to see anyone yet. Like I said Darra didn't answer... any of the 5 or 6 times that I've called her. Michelle's around, and Dan is around too I think. I need to call work, need to call the bank, etc. I need to put up my white board and also put up all the wall stuff probably tomorrow.
Oh yeah, and I need to buy a fish.

Well I ruined concerts for myself for the rest of my life.
Was what I said to Tony as we drove home. My ears are still ringing from the concert. My voice is almost back to normal, but my ears are still ringing, my feet sore, and my head still a little woozy.
We left at about 11:45 or so, and went and got food at Claim Jumpers... haha all we got were appetizers, but they were huge. We then went to the concert and parked in E13. I could've probably snuck a camera in there easily had I tried, but I didn't want to risk losing the camera and having to worry about it, so I made my mind not to bring it before we even left.
We got there at about 2:15 to 2:30 or so, and first walked around and found out where the entrances were. We then went and stood in line and bought our shirts ($28) and then went and got in line before getting in not soon after. Theatre was pretty big, but that was no problem seeing as how we were in Section 102, row U, seats 25 and 26. FUCK Y'ALL ON THE 200 SECTION AND ON THE LAWN!!!!! Our row happened to be the very last one in our section, right underneath the reserve boxes. It turned out really good, seeing as how we had to wait for so long after we sat down, it was hot, and the boxes behind us provided us SHADE! So many empty seats tonight until Snoop, Korn, and Linkin Park came on, even the boxes.
At about 4:15 to 4:30 Less Than Jake first came on... they were alright. Didn't know any of their songs but they DID shoot out t-shirts through a bazooka launcher type deal. Aside from that they were okay. Then after them it was a small intermission before The Used came on. They were a bit better and easier to rock to, but still I didn't know any of their songs so I couldn't sing or nothing. After that we went and got drinks, which took forever. By the time we got back Snoop had already started in his first song, but we got back to our seats and rocked out with him. Hahaha, he had a whole line of skanky bitches who were probably all under 25 years old. Snoop was dope, and here's a couple lines:
...smoke weed, get drunk, and fuck!
...nana na naaaa, nana na naaa, hey ayyyyy, Snoop Dogg!
Then there was a small intermission, and Korn came on. So cool, with the drummer going on first with a red glow under his drums, and then we rocked. I only remembered some songs from the first CD, maybe one song from the second, and didn't know a lot of the other stuff but it was still awesome stuff to rock to. After Korn was done we watched some breakdancers on the overhead projector for a bit.
Finally Linkin Park came on. Geezes, I fucking rocked and sang my lungs out. My throat is only still just recovering. They fucking rocked my glasses and hat off... literally. Well, I took the hat off because it was loose and making me hot, and the glasses I took off everytime I had to headbang and jump up like crazy. They were fucking so cool, haha one of the guys (the only one that I don't know) tripped on his way to hopping up the slanted slope, and Pheonix was there to kinda catch him (oh and by the way he had a fro going on). It was hardcore screaming and headbanging and everything Linkin Park was about for about 40 minutes straight and then they pretended they were done... even broke the guitar and stuff. People left... STUPIDASSES. Oh, I gotta beat traffic! DUMBASS. They weren't done! A few more songs, and ending with their headlined song from their first CD. By then the row in front of us had just about cleared out, and as Linkin Park retook the stage I got down to the row and used the space to throw my body and arms around as I rocked with Linkin park
...for the last performance of Project Revolution, for the last act of Project Revolution, for the last concert of Linkin Park until they come out with a new record, and for the first time I've seen Linkin Park in concert.
It just doesn't get any better than that. Great seats, great friend, great bands, awesome concert. What a day.

Haha, I'm happy and I can go killing now.
Were the words out of my mouth... or should I say out of my fingers that I typed as I played SoF2. I suppose good things do come when you're playing that game. Amy called first when I was playing that game. I'll probably get to see her Tuesday (I think it's Tuesday, or is it Monday? I'll call her on Monday) night and have dinner with her. That will definetly be something I'm gonna look forward to. I just can't wait to actually see her again....... it's been soo long, and I've missed her.
So she finally called today. I continued to play SoF2 and then I got the call. It was weird, she wasn't jumping for joy but she DID get them. I can imagine it in my head, from what she told me: she was in her pajamas, and she went to get the door, and her dogs ran up and she had to stop them. They are now sitting as the center piece on her kitchen table or something like that. How nice. I can't wait to see her either... I probably won't get to talk to her again until I actually drive down there and move in. That is okay, by the time I move down there I'll probably get to see her on the first day.
Still so confused. What do I do? When will be my time?
Oh well, no use in worrying about that for now. I shall just focus on the here and now, which is going to be in the following order:
1. Project Revolution Concert
2. Seeing Amy
3. Working the cash operation
4. Packing/Loading truck
5. Hanging out with Aaron and Bryan
6. Moving in
7. Seeing Darra
So yesh, she is on the bottom of the list. Had the list been extended, there might have been a: 0. Wait for thank-you call from Darra. But now that it has passed, we will focus on the following things. Tomorrow will be so awesome, I can't wait to rock out. I just gotta remember to be careful not to lose/break my glasses while i'm rocking out. Oh yeah Anthony bought me a birthday present, what a dude... he is my best friend. Anyways, focus on the here and now, and with that let us go to bed and bid this day a goodnight. A day in retrospect: cash operations a success, phone call for overdue meeting with the lifelong crush, past due thank you call from the girl of right now, and anticipation for tomorrow's concert.

Well, I'm still waiting for it.
It hasn't come yet... and I'm referring to "the call" from a certain someone. Wonder where it is? I have my doubts, but... I mean c'mon. You'd think they'd be ecstatic (haha had to look it up in Word and I spelled it right) over getting something like that. Then again, I should say it's not the first time that she's surprised me about something similar to this... and by that I mean back in February during Valentine's Day, she didn't call me until much much later. Then again, that was due to her having to drive home, and as I found out later she actually saved it in her room! God she is hard to figure out. There simply HAS to be something that I don't know about. I suppose I will find out later tomorrow or something. But I mean, there WAS that one call that was "withheld" that I had missed at 6 o'clock.
Maybe it was her then.
But I'll never know will I? At least, I was doing something productive at that time... thanks for setting it up for me Sandy. Because of the damn wind today, I was in a jerk mood all day up to the point Sandy left the store and I took over. I made some mad bank, and the cash operation worked out beautifully. Thank you mister who bought the 1/2 gallon of black algaecide, 40 pound bucket of 3" tabs, and brush. 2 bills in my pocket, hahaha.
Will it happen? Will I get to see her again?
Amy... will I see her this summer before I leave? Who knows. Maybe, maybe not. I just want a nice dinner to just sit there, catch up with her, and stare at all her beauty. That's all I want for now, and to conclude it with a nice goodbye kiss. Sigh... well, I have about 5 days to do it.
The concert's in 2 days, boy that is going to be awesome. How am I going to get the camera in? And speaking of which, where the fuck has Tony been. Well, he's coming so that's the bottom line. Hopefully I can get my camera in to take pictures at my awesome seats. The shoe is my only option for now, who knows if I'll be able to do it. I also still want to go bowling... then again, if I don't get to do it by the time I leave, I'll just do it when I get back to school.
I don't know, she's just so confusing. After I get off the phone with her each time I feel good and that we're on the right track, but what track is that exactly? She said she'll call... well it's been 2 days so I don't know. And especially after "that"? I mean, c'mon... who wouldn't call? Maybe it didn't get there??? Maybe I got screwed out of it??? Maybe this and maybe that... I'll find out about it tomorrow I suppose.
And WTF is up with my paycheck? Somebody gone done fucked up, and I want an explanation.

Well I bought them today... the tickets to Project Revolution. Tickets cost $240.00... but they will be worth it. Sitting in the center section, near center seats. Tony will be going with me, and he said he would drive. I can't wait, I just need to get the tickets from the dude, I'll find out how I'll do that tomorrow.
I also reserved my U-Haul truck today. After tax, over $500 man, that is just some crazy shit. Well, I gotta rely on the cash operations I suppose... if only I can get enough to work that off, plus the rest to take care of my Linkin Park tickets I will be golden. Well, I have tomorrow, thursday, friday, saturday, monday, and tuesday to collect. That makes 6 days, hopefully pick up $600.00. If I can do that and finish it out, I'll be happy.
Also, I finished our deal with Charter today for the internet and TV. That should be pretty good. What else do I need to take care of for the house? I gotta lay down tonight and figure it out. What else what else???

I'm posting because I can I suppose... I'm just totally ready to go back to school. Go back to home, have to cook my own food, but that's not neccessarily a bad thing. Go back to homework, tests, school in general I guess. Roommates, going out sometimes on the weekends to parties, etc.
It'll be a little different I think, just simply because of the fact that I have to work. That factor alone will cut down on my freetime... but hopefully I will be able to combine that with schoolwork. I will do my best, and I'm making that vow right now. As hard as it may be to concentrate or even do any type of written work while working, I'm going to at least try to study and whatnot. I'll see how it works out, because there simply may be no way for me to concentrate... we all know how silent it takes before I get to do anything school related.
Every night now it is the same ordeal... screaming at us to go to bed. I dunno how much more of that I can take. Not much more, because I am almost done... the countdown is now 12 days. I still gotta find some time to stop by one of the U-Haul places to see if they can't bump my price down more. I should get that done soon, and also I have to get the internet/tv taken care of for the house.
Got the new credit card today. Now I can finally be satisfied and comfortable knowning that I have something that will cover me. The limit is $2500, as opposed to my measly $500 on the Travis one. We will see what my first purchase will be. I think all of my bigger purchases will go on that one, because then I can get money/cash back off that blue card.
I don't even know what else to write. All I know is that I hope I don't get caught... I need to be REALLY REALLY careful, because if I get caught, things will be totally fucked up for me as I try to make my way back to school. Well, just a couple more days of the cash operation, and hopefully I can unload this stupid Viper. After that, I think I will be done. I will basically need to pay off Mom for the cell phone, of which the total I almost have. Then with the Viper I will be able to take that money and transfer into my account, whereas the money from the Polaris will be kept strictly for the Rangers server and my own personal stuff. That will leave maybe about $100 for DVDs and other Ebay stuff. Lets see... then if I can just get a couple hundred dollars in cash operations to help lessen the damage on that stupid U-Haul move, I think I will be cool. Plese just let all this go through smoothly... if I get busted, I dunno what I'll do, probably go to jail and not be there when school starts... and everything in my life will be fucked up. My god that will be fucked up for me. I don't even know what to do, morale wise it is totally wrong, but I need the money to pay for that stupid shit (u-haul move) and my phone. Between the two, that is like one whole paycheck. I don't even know what to do.

Here's my theory...
I was sitting there getting my ears lowered when I finally realized and came up with my theory regarding the sleepiness of getting a haircut. In the past (beginnings of my theory) I had thought that I was prone to me falling asleep because of the vibrations in the hair clippers that was used on me... kind of like the way you fall asleep on a car. But, no. It was simply because of the fact that as I sat there with my glasses off, I had the feeling that it was time to sleep. The only times that I ever take my glasses off is when I'm taking a shower, swimming, or sleeping. Showering, wakes me up. Swimming, I am moving around and usually playing so I am wide awake. Thus the only other time that I have my glasses off is when I'm sleeping... thus the induced feeling of sleep when I am getting my haircut. What a weird theory, but I am positive it is right. That solves that mystery... moving on to something bigger like the mysteries of the universe.
I met Jerry Seinfeld!
I met Jerry Seinfeld in my dream last night (or was it this morning?). It was weird, the setting was once again in the old Trinity dorms on the 3rd floor. I had some weird poster of him hung up on my wall, of which I ripped down for him to sign. However, for some reason or another the colors on the poster/picture was fading real bad, and I felt bad that I didn't have anything else for him to sign right then except for that. He signed it, we spoke for a while I think, and that is pretty much all that I could remember from the dream. I can't remember what we talked about, but I did kind of remember him performing somewhere, and I was sitting near the front rows but very much off to the left hand side of the stage. That is all I can remember, I really wish to meet him someday.
Kara should eat more Wendy's 99 cent nuggets. I have no idea why but we were talking about it earlier today and I just have that stuck in my mind so I figured I get it out here. There was a lady with Kara's birthday at work today, but obviously a different year.
I should start posting much more as school is getting closer and closer, and me moving out is also getting closer and closer. I need to get out of here. Like I said to Jaime the other day:
VV sucks
work sucks
mom telling me to eat 3 square meals a day and go to bed early sucks
no parties or girls sucks
Lots of sucks, but it's all true. I need to go back. I need to start making that "list" of stuff I need to have as I travel down there. I also need to make sure that the U-Haul is not a stick shift. I also need to get my SS card taken care of while I still have a vehicle available to me here in town. I also need to get that list of stuff that we had before in Cerro Vista made up and talk about to the guys (vacuum cleaner, house neccessities such as trash bags etc, TV/Internet pricing about two lines or one). Wow I have a lot of "need to do" things. I should get started on some of them soon. It is already the 20th of August. Let's see... when is going to be my 2 week's notice... 24th? 24 + 7 = 31 + 7 = Labor Day. Yup, 24th is when I gotta give my 2 week's. Looking forward to that too... my paycheck this time was small. Next one will hopefully make up for it.

Well it sure has been a while.
I don't even know where to start... I guess today would be a good place maybe. Got up, went to work... same thing as always. Sandy finally got a car... I suppose that's the only new thing. Took care of a lot of special orders today and even some shop work (although some were a pain in the ass)... and if I remember correctly there shouldn't be any customers pissed off at me for any particular reason or another. Came home, ate dinner, watched TV with brothers, fell asleep for 15 minutes... woke up and played games, then I'm here.
Time to rewind back maybe... a couple weeks or so...
Well, Beth was here and then wasn't. Confusing, yes I know. Well, she showed up right about the time Bryan and I went to The Crystal Method and Paul Oakenfold concert. Saw her the day afterwards, and then expected her to have gone to Oregon to visit her aunt/uncle. As I found out about a few days ago, she didn't go. Weird, I was calling her cell to figure out when she was gonna be back, but she never picked up her phone, so thus I thought she had actually gone. Turns out she was here in Vacaville the whole time, hanging out with... Rick maybe? Her and Diana were still on the bad side and JUST getting over it on this last Tuesday. Anyways, Tuesday we went bowling... we = Diana, Beth, and Me. Then afterwards we just drove around for a while, while the two girls were chatting along (yeah I felt REAL included... I wanted to get away almost) and then they started calling up people to go out to dinner. William calls, saves me, says Mom is mad I wasn't gonna make it home for dinner. So I say I gotta go, but I'll catch up with them later. So they drop me off, and I remembered I gotta figure out my school schedule shit (look a couple paragraphs down for full story on that). She calls me back and to make a long story short, she was mad I ditched her on the last day to figure out my school shit, I suppose she didn't believe me. Honestly, I didn't want to be there too much, because I had wanted it to be just her and I saying goodbye and such for the last time in who knows how long, but all her other friends were gonna be there, I didn't know them, and I really did have to be home to figure out my school shit. I'm sorry, I really am... I didn't even get to say bye this time... I'm quite sad. (sighhhhh)
Um... what is next. Spending money. Money money money stuff... I have to talk to Mom tomorrow morning regarding money I'll be spending this next year. Recent purchases:
1. Sony Ericsson T637 Cell Phone
2. New bowling ball and bag
3. New bowling shoes
Great phone, I love it. Still waiting for the link that I ordered off of Ebay to connect it to the computer so I can upload pictures and games and ringtones and stuff. Bowling ball is awesome, I bowled a 190 one time with it (bowling 5 games so far with it) and I've been pretty darn accurate. It is a 13 pound ball, feels really good and not heavy at all (I used to use a 12 all the time) and I'm waiting for my shoes.
So... school stuff. Registration was this last Wednesday... I knew that. But me, being the fucking dumbass that I am, forgot to pay the damn tuition ahead of time. Boy was I screwed. It was Tuesday, and I home preparing to set up my schedule to register the next morning at 7:00 AM when I realized I hadn't paid. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. I hop online and pay via eCheck right away, but had no faith in the system processing it by the next morning. I was screwed, I can't register using my priority (which was the following day) and if I didn't find a way to register I wouldn't be able to register for another 2 WEEKS!!!!! I got ready to prepare to drive down to Cal Poly the next day (8 hour round trip) to personally hand the administration cashier a check, so I can hop online and register that afternoon. But then I talked to Huy... he said the eCheck was instant. I finally make it through the night, and in the morning at 7:01 AM I realized the check wasn't processed. FUCKKKKKKKKK. But let's wait until 8 so I can call the cashier's office. 8:01 AM I try to register again, and it said I was through!!!!!!!! I could register!!!!!!!! It was a miracle, and I figured out that basically my eCheck was processed at 8 in the morning. Wow. I am never fucking going through that again. My life would have been hell right as school started, with a totally FUCKED up schedule and having to crash courses, and probably would have been placed on Academic Probation for not having the right classes. I can breath now..........
Darra called. She called me I believe Monday night. I thought she had fallen off the face of Earth. As it turns out, she was just busy... and she finally got online a few days back to check her e-mail and get ready for registration herself. She finally read my e-mail, and decided to return my call. So I spoke with her for a little bit that night, I think like 20 minutes. She was going to take tech writing, of which I still had to take, so I think this is going to be a great way to have another class with her. But as it finally turned out, with my whole registration ordeal, I couldn't have gotten that class with her anyways, but settled for a MUCH MUCH MUCH better schedule... with all of my right classes, good teachers, ALL IN THE SAME BUILDING (there is no one here on Earth that can be taking 16 units, and get their classes all in the same damn building... and we are talking 6 separate lectures and labs!!!! ) and I don't have class on Tuesdays! On Monday and Wednesday I'm done by 2! On Friday I'm done at 12!!!!!!! What a perfect schedule. As far as Darra goes, oh well. I don't even know what's going on. I have no love life anymore. I quit.
I QUIT
More than one person/girl have told me to stop looking. They say that it is when you stop looking for that person do you finally find her. I've been looking for way too long now, I am tired, I am hurt, I (almost) don't care, I quit. Let them come to me... hahaha, like that would ever happen. There is absolutely no way I am going to meet anyone... I only have chaces in my philosphy class this upcoming school year, and maybe while I'm working the desk at the Bowling Alley. I'll stop looking now, so as to speed up that process of somehow stumbling upon her.
What else, what else, what else. Oh, Aaron was here for a while. Saturday he came up with Lisa because them two, Bryan, and Haley are all going to Disney World in Florida. Sounds like fun. Aaron, Lisa, and I (and the brothers and friends) all hung out Saturday night at the bowling alley and went and got ice cream. Sunday, was my day off, and so we all went to the mall to do some shopping (at least Lisa did) and Aaron and I decided to try this Oxygen Bar thingy... yeah, I have to admit it, I got high off of oxygen. It was actually kind of cool... very interesting process and experience. I miss that guy... I'm gonna visit them on my way down to moving into my house. I'll stop off and see him and Lisa for a day or so, and then drive that U-Haul down and move in.
I have no idea what AJ is doing. He's going back soon, and I say him a grand total of (drum roll here.............) TWO TIMES. Fucking christ... I suppose he has better things to do and more friends to see than I. Then again, I can't blame him too much, for I'm working almost all the time and how is he supposed to know when I'm available. I haven't called him too much, and he hasn't called me, so we're even. Geezes... everyone is leaving before I even get to say Hi or Bye to them. I suck. I can't believe how bad of a friend I am. I didn't get to drink with neither AJ nor Beth. Sigh....... then again I never really did have the right place to drink, and getting Mike to buy for me is almost out of the way. And also with work the next day or having to come home or getting home all faded and stuff etc etc. There really isn't a way for me to do any of that kind of activity.
I'm done. I think I'm out of things to say. Mom just came out and said "I thought I told you all to be in bed by 1." I gave her a dirty look, and said "It's not 1 yet." So she left and slammed the door. What the fuck. I need to move out again. Geezes. Can't do what I want, when I want, or how I want. Living at home sucks so much. Fuck this, I got another month left and I'm out of here. I'm so frustrated with work... so frustrated with home... so frustrated with girls... so frustrated...WITH LIFE. I'm done.

Oy... no more writing! Just made my first update on the Rangers website. I am gonna have tons of stuff to update there! Bryan made it in today, welcome new Ranger! Too bad S-S Bob didn't make it, maybe next time when you finally go out and get some skill! Still didn't talk to Kara today... wonder where she is.
Work is getting more and more hectic. 4 people left now, and crazy schedules with 6 day weeks and I am currently on day 1 of a 6 day series of work. Oh well, that just means big paychecks! Speaking of which, I just bought the Spiderman DVDs and I am in the process of receiving the Yu-gi-oh ones, and also in the process of buying the Batman ones. Money money money... coming all from Polaris bags! Better get to bed early, I gotta get up and prep my second sales and also run to the post office!

Jamming away to Live 365's DDR Freak Radio channel... and eating some Mentos. No work today... hung out at home and did E-bay stuff, I have to wake up early tomorrow to finish it and take it to the post office. I also hope those other people who got the "wrong" bags will e-mail me back and tell me what's the deal. Also I hope I can win some of those bids for the Spiderman and Batman DVDs. Had lots of fun today in the server playing with Bryan and the rest of the Rangers. There is a scrim tomorrow night at 7 I think, I doubt that I will be able to make it home in time for it. The ladder also starts now, and the matches should be starting soon. Haven't talked to Kara in quite a while now... wonder where she is.
Don't really feel like posting too much but what the hell, I'll do it. Also like a chore... work sucked today. Just me and Monique cause Leroy's kid had a seizure and went into the hospital. Can't blame him for being a Dad you know? I wish the best for them. Peter was supposed to come by... never did, and Leroy was supposed to come back... wonder if he ever did.
Tonight Bryan hopped onto TS with me and played a little SoF2 with hom!cide and S-S Bob... and we ended scrimming some team that I already forgot the name to. We got our asses kicked, mainly because Bob sucked and Bryan wasn't doing too great (not bad though) and homicide wasn't doing too bad either. Anyways, hopefully Bryan will play more with us.
Stupid E-bay... I gotta remember: "It's all in the words" and at least NOW I've fixed that stupid "problem". Hopefully the others will get by smoothly. We'll see tomorrow.

Yea work really sucks today. I found out from Sandy that Ansel did indeed put in his 2 weeks last Friday, and so now we're looking at 4 people employed at Store # 83 in Vacaville after Ansel is gone. Leroy, it's your time to step put buddy... and everyone will be putting in long hours to get through the rest of this summer.
I am going to hopefully soon start to take over the Rangers website and give it tons of updates. It should be fun, and I get to show them what I can do for the website to make Rangers be better.
And now... a sad moment:
3250 Has Died Today (July 5th, 2004)
His life: We will call him "fish" because he has no name... he is a number. He changes depending on how many miles he has traveled with me. He has made 6.5 round trips of 500 miles with me in a little glass bowl with clear and blue glass pebbles on the bottom. He has been a good fish, he has gotten mad at me (when he was young and at his prime), he has committed suicide a couple of times (but lived), and he has eaten a lot of food. He was given to me by Ashely back in the Trinity dorms in the December of 2002. I will purchase his "successor" after I move into my house in the fall. And now... a moment of silence.............. 3250 shall now be given a death that every pet fish should deserve. Down the toilet you go... (Taps playing) Goodbye buddy, I will remember you, ALWAYS.

I worked today, Ansel first went home and Leroy was supposed to be there but he never showed up, but Monique and I were able to handle it, even with it being the 4th of July and all. It wasn't terribly busy. Good money today. Then after I came home it was probably a good 3 or 4 hours worth of Soldier of Fortune 2. Played a match against TKA of which we won the first round by 1, they won the second round by 1, and so we go to a tie-breaker map (Kam 4) of which I didn't know anything about and so I just played defense and we won that by 2 flags. After that we went into <(DeZ)>'s server, and got a big 7 on 7 practice match going on... they are gonna kick our asses. ArchEnemy said that they still had a few of their top players to show, and we still had Wraith, Ban, and hoHo to show too. Can't wait for that ladder to start!
Jeff came to visit today and we played some cards and stuff. Good day and Beth left me a message... thank you!!

The nose... hurts so much... leaking like a dripping faucet... and when the sneezing waves come, it comes in X2 ~ X5. It was not cool all day at work, using paper towels in my pocket to 1.) Catch the flying debris/mucus coming out of my nose and 2.) so that I look somewhat sanitary to the customers. My nose still hurts right now, the only things I can possibly think of to do is to go to bed or take a shower... I'll shower tomorrow. Sleep now, but I am helping keep Bethy company because her friends are being drama queens like high schoolers (of which they are still fresh out of) and they are ignoring her. Poor Beth.
Well, I got work tomorrow on USA's birthday, which means I get double time pay ($9 times 2 equals $18 an hour for about 7 1/2 hours equals $135 in one day!!!) Yeah hopefully it won't be EXTREMELLY busy. I mean I know it will be busy like before but hopefully not too busy where we can't handle it. It was also busy at work today, we did around $8470, and around 210 customers. Last but not least I hope my nose will quit FUCKING PISSING ME OFF!!! *sniff*sniff*SNEEZE*

Guess who got promoted? Me! I'm now a Captain, so my tag looks like this:

Wooahh! Played lots of SoF2 today and had a couple of scrims which we didn't get to 100% finish each one. First one was against D.E.F of which we killed them the first round but they picked it up the second round and just decided to quit. Then the second scrim was against Szabo's new clan, FBA, of which we won the first round 8 to 4 and instead of playing a second round with the sides swapped, they decided to go and complain and bitch until we decided to play in their server. HOWEVER me and Genocide couldn't get in because of stupid .pk3 errors so we just quit, thus we won. The DEV ladder will start soon, next week I think, and that will be fun, hopefully it's late enough that I'm back from work to play.

Day off today. Woke up late, and then went and saw Spiderman 2 with Tony. It was a good movie, but **Don't read this if you don't want the movie to be ruined** I didn't expect them to show Peter Parker's true identity to both Harry Osborn and Mary Jane so quickly, in that this is only the 2nd of the Spiderman movies... who knows how many they will make. The Crocodile guy made an appearance already as Peter Parker's science professor, and they also showed MJ's fiance as JJJ's astronaut son who went to the moon and brought back what will eventually turn into Venom. Also at the end they showed Harry talking to his dad, and him discovering the cache of Green Goblin weapons and glider in a hidden vault. **End Movie Spoilers**
I went and hung out with Mike tonight, he was supposed to be doing his homework and working on math/chemistry but I probably just distracted him. Freddy (Fredo) is still alive and kicking, that old 13 year old dog... and he also got a new black lab, I forgot what the name is but that b!tch (lol) was even crazier than Lucy! Mike's doing good, working at Reebok in the outlets and going to summer school. I will have to hang out with him more, play Halo with him and other guys, and also fix his computer. (Making mental note to pick up his computer and fix up his hard drives.)
Bethy made a post about me today :) and I was able to help. Although I felt kinda bad that I didn't pick up the phone when she called (because it was still set on 'Silent' from when I was in the movie theater). However when I recommended that she try installing Ad-Aware it seemed to fix her computer of which was screwing up because of stupid spyware and adware. I should recommend to her to run CW-Shredder too.
Oil change tomorrow at 7. Work tomorrow at 11:30... truck day... hope my pants get dry before I gotta go in, and then I get another day off on Friday. I should call Darra soon.

Bored. Saturday night and I'm sitting here at my computer, a little tired from work, a little tired from the lack of sleep the night before, but still bored and wanting to do something. It's probably for the better that I stay in tonight, play a DoTA with the brothers and then go to bed after a snack.
Forgot to post yesterday because I was online with Kara and then by the time I got off it was like... lemme check... 1:17 in the morning, but then I decided to eat and watch Seinfeld and eat and watch DDR clips and then finally go to sleep close to 3 in the morning. I had stuff to post though, so here it is:
*** Begin Friday's Post ***
No work today, slept in until mom woke me up so that we could fix her computer. All 3 of us went to CompUSA with Mom and we bought her a new harddrive and network cable with the help of Bryan Emerson (Anal Acrobat, lol) and his employee discount. Then we went to Mel's for lunch. Then I went and picked up the stuff we bought for Mom's comp, and I came home and began work on it. Time Saver #1 - the Maxtor harddrive's program helped me mirror everything on the old harddrive over to the new one and make it as a boot drive, saving me the trouble of using Partition Magic 7. It worked beautifully. Time Saver #2 - as it turns out, Windows XP installs everything that we needed to get DSL going for Mom, all we had to do was connect the network cable to the hub and she was on her way! Everthing went well for Mom's comp today, and she is online, fast harddrive, fast operating system, A-OKAY!
I also went and saw Dodgeball with Anthony tonight, that shit was fucking hilarious. It has got to be one of my favorite movies of all time, the humor was just perfect and not too cheezy (except for the final sudden death round which ended pretty dumb and the effects, well the Matrix had already ruined it.) I might buy the DVD when it comes out.
Then along came a phone call at 8:31... from none other than Ms. Woods. Yeah, she finally called back, after I've tried for the past 4 days. The conversation lasted for 41 MINUTES AND 43 SECONDS... you figure it out if it was a good day for me or not! Talked about... what we've been doing - she's going to summer school for art 4 days a week, she's working at an arts and crafts store. Talked about school and how the last quarter ended. Talked about hanging out with friends in town (or the lack thereof). She's basically playing tennis, working, and going to school. Talked about housing situations for the fall. Talked about moving back, and how she will be there in the beginning of September and how I will be back early too, so we will hang out. She's going to some wedding today for her cousin. In the end, when I called her on the fact that she's always late or forgets to call me or whatever, she said that "it took me so long to call but when I finally got time I called you, and I needed someone who could make me laugh." OMG, that made me smile so big... and I said back to her "yup, and I need someone to tell me about how messy her room is with bras and underwear and how her boobs keep getting bigger" and she cracked up. I'll call her again next week, hopefully get to talk to her again.
*** End Friday's Post ***
So that was it for that. Today was just filled with work, I really wanted to hit on that girl with the "Love God" (direct translation)in Chinese tattooed on her neck that came in to the store, if only I had thought up my pickup line by then. Well, at least in the future I have it ready. I was waiting for her to walk back by but no... oh well. That was about it at work, and that I found out Ansel once tried to kill himself and escaped death 2 other times too. I almost decided to go to HomeTown Buffet with him but I was too full from Burger King about 2 hours ago and I didn't want to spend anymore money ($9 for the barbeque thingy they were having on Thursdays and Saturdays). That was pretty much the day... oh yeah, my paycheck came today ($217.98) was this first check, and I AM at $9 an hour, coolio. Oh and also my DDR 4th Mix marquee came too, it is clear and plastic, so I will probably frame this one too along with the 7th Mix one, and I will probably do the lighting to this one.
Stupid flame nades by Clan Noob... I don't understand their names and the lack of tags or whatever. They flamed us good though.

Word of the day:
AGNOSTIC
Pronunciation: ag-'näs-tik, &g-
Function: noun
Etymology: Greek agnOstos unknown, unknowable, from a- + gnOstos known, from gignOskein to know
: a person who holds the view that any ultimate reality (as God) is unknown and prob. unknowable; broadly : one who is not committed to believing in either the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god
Is that me? Hmmm... although I feel that I am more of a Darwinist (believer of Darwinism) or some sort of evolution-ist. (Scratches head and thinks deeply...)

I'm tired, and I just lost about $2000 in poker chips. My stack is down to about 9 G's right now, as opposed to my 11 that existed at about 11:30 PM. Fuck them.
No work today, I watched stupid Saved By the Bell (Hawaii Special!) and it was retarded and 500% predictable. It was almost funny in the sense that we were making predictions as to what is going to happen to who and it would almost all turn out to be true. Stupid 90's television.
I did manage to finish setting up the internet for the brothers, but only after $59.99 + TAX for a new router from Comp USA. Fuck that guy who sold me the router for 5 bucks, that shit didn't give me anything but trouble and a headache for 2+ days and a lot of wasted time/effort... fucking asshole.
After that it was on-to Mom's stupid project... first step was to figure out what the hell she wanted to save on her hard drive. Then it was the biggest problem of the day, trying to get that shit off of the computer. At first we tried to use my external hard drive, of which didn't work (although it had in the past) and then my USB key drive didn't work because of fucking Windows 98, and finally tried to install the network card and use a crossover cable, but we didn't have the drivers to the damn card and I couldn't load it from ANY of the Windows CDs that we had. At about 9:30 I finally decided to take Mom's hard drive out and plug it into my computer to pull shit off of it, which worked. Then it was onto starting to install the OS, but we soon found out that both Chinese versions of Windows 2000 and Windows XP needed a fucking CD serial, thus we got stuck and tried looking up serials off the internet and from friends, but none of that shit worked. Finally we got a serial from Jeff, but I had already given up and shut down the comp by then. I'll work on it some more tomorrow, I at least now have the brothers off my back about the internet, just have Mom to worry about. I probably won't finish with her shit until Friday when I have another day off because I still gotta install all the drivers and programs and setup the internet for her too... speaking of which I need to find all the drivers CDs in the garage somewhere, PAIN IN THE FUCKING ASS.
Almost looking forward to work tomorrow to get away from this shit. I wonder what those charges on my credit card are... looks like someone spent about $60 or something with my card, I'll find out tomorrow. Travis redid their webpage and it looks all funky, and speaking of which I went to the bank today and got another ATM card finally... after them not sending me another one after the wallet-stolen-incident. I also put in an app for increase of credit limit, it probably got rejected. I'll have to call tomorrow to check.

A lot to write about. Where to start?
(Playing in background... Linkin Park "Breaking the Habit" music video)
Summer is here... meaning no more school (free mind with no academically related stuff whatsoever to worry about) and it also means the beginning of the $$$ making back at good ol' Leslie's Pool Supplies. Ansel is still the manager... Sandy and Monique are still around as well, Marky Mark is gone... too bad, "Oh Okayyyyyy" hahaha. Leroy is the new assistant manager, he's a real cool guy too... although he chews tobacco. Oh well, who am I to judge, it's not like it is worse than smoking cigarettes.
Yesterday (yeah I think it was yesterday) was a real trip down memory lane... it was a real nostalgic day. At work I first ran into Tim Eddy (who is working at Sportmart next door now) and then my 2nd grade teacher walks in the door... Mrs. Christensen... sheesh, I can't believe that I remembered her. If only she knew that this guy in the pool store used to be this 3 foot tall kid who was in her 2nd grade elementary school class, she would proably flip. Then Brian Foster's parents walked in with Kelly, sheesh I haven't seen her for 2 years I think, she's still the cute-yet bratty girl... whew, gotta stay away from that, too young!
Fucking DSL is pissing me off, I don't know why we're having so much trouble trying to get the router going. The DSL modem was a piece of cake to install, but the router is really giving me more trouble than what it's worth. Oh well, as of right now we can have 1 person on high speed. I still need to fix Mom's computer, I'll probably do it Wednesday on my day off.
(Playing in background... Hilary Duff "Come Clean" music video)
I called Darra today... as per the advice of dear Kara. She didn't pick up, but when I happened to pop online after I got home from work she was online, and we said our hellos. I asked why she didn't pick up and she said it was because she had left her phone in her car, and so I told her to get it and I would call her tonight. 9:30 and 10:35 I made the calls but she still didn't pick up. Oh well, maybe tomorrow. I dunno why I'm still barking up that tree anyways... I suppose just to talk to her because we're "friends" like Kara said. I do miss seeing her like last quarter. Yeah I'll probably cll her tomorrow... that's if she'll pick up her phone.
What else is going on. Rocky is snoring, too loud for me to sleep at night. I may have to kick him outside again... dumb dog. Work at 11 tomorrow... another full day. I need a day off. Maybe I need to read a book... Kara talked about some best seller one, something about Da Vinci's notebook or something? I'll have to check it out.

Urgh... last night here in Cal Poly's Cerro Vista Apartments... hope this sleep is good. Tomorrow I will be packing up my stuff and going home to my futon in the living room in VV. Just drank a cold one... Miller goes down so nice and smooth and easy!
Tomorrow I will also be going in to fail my first ever final... sad but true, a great F in which I hope the professor will curve the shit out of and I can end up with a D or some sort of C. That would just be awesome. Andrew and I pretty much ave the materials test down pat, thanks to Orling's dumbass who told us basically every damn calculation problem on the test. I hope I get an A in materials... and that fool of a teacher didn't have our midterms back again! Wow, I wonder what the hell I got on it and also Quiz #4 (probably like a 8 or something around there, maybe 7). We'll find out soon enough, cross your fingers, take a deep breath, and chew a piece of gum for me.

(Playing in background: Seinfeld Episode 78 - The Marine Biologist)
Arg... 2 more days left. First final tomorrow... am I ready? Will the 4th problem be parallel inductors or a power one? Will I be able to do the 3-phase circuit problem? Will the parallel/series circuit be a tricky one? We will find out in less than 9 hours. Busy busy day tomorrow... 1 test, 2 review sessions, and gotta study for 2 tests.
Done packing most of the stuff now... gotta remember to give back a few things to people and still gotta call the lady to make sure I can move all the stuff in on Thursday when Dad and William get here. (sigh) Better get to bed soon so I won't over-sleep tomorrow and be up in time.

Christ... the eyes are heavy now. Another day closer to summer. Been putting off all the REAL studying, and have only been working on the IME presentation (of which if I don't get an A in the class, I WILL BE PISSED OFF). That's it, just wanted to post... better than not posting at all for over a year right?
Oh yeah, Will got on the Kings' website for his caption. That's so sweet, and here is da link.

Sunday now... 4 more days left before summer is here. Summer = no academic related stuff at all whatsoever, just work. Back to Leslie's we go... making $$$ and dealing with fucked up pH water, broken Hayward cleaners, avoiding selling heaters and safety fencing, keeping a tab on the fridge, and waiting for days to be over to count out the register's money and go home. Ah the joy.
It was so funny... I sware I dreamt of J-Mar last night and what do you know, AJ posts something regarding Jeff making it big for himeself. Good stuff buddy, keep it up and make a name for yourself and our hometown! Link is here to The Reporter's story on Jeff.
