I'm orange. What colour are you?
What colour of Skittle are you?
I screwed up the template royally; will customize it again tomorrow.

Time to update. This weekend is boring. Rob's gone seeing relatives, Jenn won't be back till Tuesday, and there's nothing else to do but make some progress in EQ.

But, about yesterday. Yesterday me and Jenn actually went somewhere; out to eat, and then to see The Two Towers. Such a great movie! Continues the epic so well, and they even manage to make it funny by making fun of Gimli a lot. And of course, it was even more fun to watch with Jenn there. But we went to the smaller and cheaper Loew's theatre, and their seats really suck. The armrest in the middle doesn't go up like the Willowbrook theatre! Next time I'll bring a screwdriver... Anyway, I'm awaiting Jenn's return at my computer right now. I may go over to Sterling's later to beat SS2 with him for about the 11th time, and maybe Julia will come and hang out with us. It would certainly make things more interesting around here. You know, I don't think you ever feel the need for anything until you experience it.

Back from Jenn's... Seven hours is still not enough time to be with her in one day...

Merry Christmas. Do you know what I got for Christmas? An electric razor. That's right! Such a cool present. Got this little bottle of cologne from Jenn. It's all smelly and cool! Yep, best Christmas ever. And today marks me and Jenn's one month anniversary! We're still very happy.. She came over for dinner last night and we managed to escape from my dad and my neighbors to go "watch TV" as usual. I sort of fell asleep on her too. Meh!

Tuesday, December 24, 2002

Looks like I'm home. Home not only from my vacation in Fannin, but also home from Jenn's house! Amazingly enough, I cannot recall a day in my life where I've had so much fun. I met her relatives, of course, as the nature of anniversary dinners go. Very interesting people. Did you know that Jennifer's mom organizes the spices in her pantry alphabetically? Scary. Anyway, the most fun of the events came after the dinner, where, as usual, me and Jenn just sat around watching TV. I learned two things today: I can pick Jenn up in my arms, and also, I learned of her most ticklish spot, which I will not disclose here. No Julia, it is NOT dirty, you dirty dirty dirty girl! Anyway, yeah, she's great. One month on Christmas, actually.

In other news, my excursion at our deer lease was pretty worthwhile. I walked about ten miles through the woods until I got lost and went in a big circle back to the trailer. I saw turkeys. Lots of turkeys. And deer. This time around, I didn't shoot anything though, as much as Bret will be disappointed; not enough room for meat in our freezer. We've been giving out pounds and pounds of venisin to neighbors for the past week or so, but it's still pretty crowded. Anyway, there was this tree, and it had these two-inch long barbs on it, and one of them stabbed me, and I was like, crap. There ends the epic story of my vacation.

Armageddon will only come when UPS changes its color from brown to something else. "This man with a purple truck rang my doorbell and left a box next to the door. I called the police!" And think of the economic devastation! No packages would be delivered, because those damnable men would be too busy painting their trucks! Yes, UPS will, someday, bring the downfall of society.

It's time again to brush aside the spent Dr.Pepper cans and update. I spent another afternoon at Jenn's today, as she was able to sneak me over without her parents knowing. It's cool, since I think they like me, and it's not like my parents really care where I am. In any case, it was so nice to be able to be alone with her before I go on vacation this weekend. I'll be going up to our deer lease to shoot animals and drive ATVs. What a fun way to spend the weekend. I'll miss Jenn, since I'm so used to doing something with her on the weekends now, but it'll be a lot of fun anyway. Besides, I'm seeing her Monday at her house for her grandparents' anniversary (because I'm on such good terms with her parents)!

I've got to see The Two Towers. I hear it kicks all theoretical aspects of ass.

The MMORPG gamer plays to better his life. That which is virtual takes place of the gamer's crappy, socially-deprived way of living. Lost girlfriends can turn into fierce dragons! Broken hearts are merely insignificant points of damage! Stoic and secluded is the MMORPG addict at school, craving his next escape from reality. Crack is only a gateway drug to those whose lives suck more than a game! Besides, who needs social events when you can always be slaying gods with 40 other real people? Sure, you don't really know their gender, age, or sexual preference, but what's the difference when all you see is hundreds of wizard/elf/male? Loot over love is the gamer's philosophy!
Back from Jenn's house. We actually did get some work done on her French review. I didn't study at all, but once we finished that, we watched Wayne's World. Because Wayne's World is an awesome movie.

Intellectual
What Type Of Anime Character Are You?

brought to you by Quizilla
Ahem. And now, a poem entitled:

Triscuit Rhapsody

Made of wheat,
And good to eat,
Triscuits are
My favorite treat!



Why wasn't today a partial day? Yet another five periods of sitting around trying to get some sleep, followed by an easy-as-hell geometry final. I finished in like 20 minutes. Tomorrow will be better though. I mean, electronics and programming? Is there an easier pair of classes in the world? Maybe electronics and floral design. *snicker*

Anyway, as I said, tomorrow will be better. Not only are there easy finals, but we get out early, and me and Jenn are going to go and study. No, seriously. I think we'll really get some work done this time. Doubtful that we'll go get to see The Two Towers, but that's allright. We've got the whole Christmas break to do stuff together.. I look forward to it. A lot.

Will I ever finish decorating my Christmas tree? It's just one of those questions that constantly plagues mankind. I swear.

Monday, December 16, 2002

It's Monday. The first day of finals week. I don't really think I'm ready, but what does it matter? I'd have to make lower than a 38.5 on my geometry final to actually fail the class. The highlights of this week will be Wednesday, as The Two Towers comes out and me and Jenn might be able to go see it, and Friday, when we'll be done with all this testing bullshit. I just want to get to Christmas vacation right now... And why did we even have to come to school today? We did absolutely nothing in every one of my classes. I'll just be glad that every period is shorter tomorrow. Geometry final will be so easy.

I love you Jenn! She just went home. It was so much fun today. Just sitting around on my bed making fun of MTV and some other TV shows. Anyway, she's the greatest. I just can't describe how good I feel right now, so I won't even try. Have a good weekend everyone!

Thursday, December 12, 2002

I am

Meat.

Take the most pointless quiz ever made by Twink

The choir's holiday concert is tonight. I am prepared to sing! Jenn will be coming, so better do a good job!

Wednesday, December 11, 2002

I am returned from choir rehearsal. I am tired. I am PASSING CHEMISTRY. Yes, it's a miracle. Mr.McCormick dropped our lowest daily grade today, and I have a 71. I may be worn out from the orchestra rehearsal today, and these two 7:00 AM rehearsals, but I'm really not feeling that bad right now. I'm talking to Jenn about what we're going to do on Friday, since she's not going to the Christmas party for band. I think we've decided on either going bowling with Rachel and Jeff, or her just hanging out at my house. I'm fine with either one.

Tuesday, December 10, 2002

I've been neglecting my updates again. So sorry! I just haven't had much time, or have been kinda tired recently. Let's just start with last night.

I went to go see Klein Drama's production of The Foreigner. Not quite as good as A Midsummer Night's Dream, but hilarious even still. Not only that, I (of course) went with Jenn, and we sat with her friends Rachel and Jeff. Rachel's really cool, and her and Jeff make a really cute couple. They've been going out for a year it seems, but Rachel's family is Mormon, and her parents absolutely hate him. I don't see why, besides the fact that their going out probably goes against a lot of their "wholesome values". Mormonism- no, religion confuses me. Anyway, the play was great, and added to that was the fact that I had Jenn to hold the whole time. *grin*

On to today. This morning, I got up too late to take a shower, which is actually something I always end up doing about once every week. I came to school early of course, for the 7:00 AM choir rehearsal. It really doesn't get much worse than that. What good is 20 minutes of rehearsal when first of all, you can't sing, and second, when only half the choir is even there? I suppose it was allright. Today was one of those better singing days for me, and I could tell, with so few people I could actually hear myself for once. It's probably because I woke up so late. Whenever I have a really bad morning, I've really got that sternum-rattling disgruntled bass voice, or at least until I get to lunch. In any case, rehearsal sucked, and we've got it again tomorrow. I think Jenn was depressed when I told her that... I don't get to hang out with her in the morning! Oh well. We must suffer only seeing each other about four times a day instead of five, I'm afraid.

I won't bother saying anything about today except this: I'm failing chemistry by 0.8 points, and I really hope it isn't a problem that I turned in my course selection sheet today. Very late, as typical of me. Anyway, I sort of missed the bus today on purpose, but that's okay. I got to "study" with Jenn, Rachel, Jeff, and Dori (pardon my grammar, I don't really know how to spell her name). It's funny because Jenn's car is nicer than Dori's! I'm waiting for Jenn to call me now, actually, since I'm going to her band concert tonight. Yay!

Sunday, December 08, 2002

Julia said I probably wouldn't be able to resist the urge to write at least something about Jenn in my next update. I only have one thing to say to that.

Duh.

Today, as far as Sundays go, or any day for that matter, should be awesome. The reason? Yes, Julia, I'm going to see The Ring with Jenn. She's going to have dinner at my house, and then we'll drive to the theatre. I'll write about it more later when I have time.

Thursday, December 05, 2002

It's cold outside. I just had to either move or cover up all my mom's plants, and I'm thinking I really need some mittens, or gloves, or something. I had to thaw my hands out in hot water... But oh well. Tomorrow is Friday, the day to end all bad days, especially those where my grade has suffered this week. Tomorrow there's a chemistry quiz. I will fail. It's inevitable. I have no idea whatsoever of what I'm doing in there. And there's a test Monday!

Wednesday, December 04, 2002

Home from the echocardiogram/treadmill test. I'm perfectly healthy. And actually, I am feeling better, like this breathing problem is lifting away or something. As soon as possible I'm going to start riding my bike several miles a day, and I'm thinking I'll ride on the streets now and use my mom's road bike. I need to get back in shape!

My grade in every class that matters is roughly a 74. I'm not doing too great. I really think I need to quit slacking, or something, but it's so hard! Especially when you're such a lazy guy like me... The chances of me doing any homework once I get home are pretty well below 1%. Maybe I can at least study for the semester exams. Ugh. Only two more days and this week is over, and then I can go out and see The Ring (yes, again) with Jenn.

Julia made fun of me in her blog! *sob*

I'm in programming. I've just got to sit through two more hours..

Tuesday, December 03, 2002

I'm home! Home, out of the school, out of the bus, out of the rain... Waiting for the orchestra choir rehearsal that is today at six. Yesterday I thought it was, and stayed after school only to find myself in the middle of a drama rehearsal in the choir building. How embarrassing. It was good that I stayed after, however, because me, Jenn, Kristen, and Rachael went driving around, hung out at this guy Jonathan's house, and dropped people off. Was fun. Much fun indeed.

Speaking of Jenn, I'm a little worried about her. She's kinda depressed because Kristen seems to have taken advantage of her generosity... I won't go into detail about it, but I hope I can make her feel better.
In English. It's boring as all unholy hell in here. In fact, I'm typing this on a crappy old 486 with 24 megabytes of RAM. It's like browsing the internet with a God damned TV. Just have to sit still for an hour, and then I can make it to lunch and regain my sanity. So far so good for a Tuesday, tired as I was to wake up at 5:40...

Sunday, December 01, 2002

Ah, Sunday, Sunday! Show me a greater evil!

I believe Creon said that in that damnable Greek drama Antigone, but with regards to anarchy. In any case, Sundays suck. Supposed to be days of rest really, but it seems that I'm always doing work on Sundays. Have to do this research report, and then I've got to go rake the yard. Sucks. Not only that, I'm really wishing that today could just be yesterday again... I had so much fun yesterday. But, life must go on, and I'm looking forward to seeing Solaris, that new movie with George Clooney on Friday or Saturday with Jenn. And of course, now I hang out with her in the band hall in the mornings rather than with Rob and the crew of really strange people. It's nice to be away from those guys as nice as it is to be with Jenn.
Wow, I think I've just quit EverQuest.

Neocron's better anyhow.
