   Whew!
There's nothing like a four mile walk on a blustery winter afternoon to rid a person of anxiety. I feel much better now. The strong, frigid wind and threat of cars hitting me really helped get my mind off of my paper and cleaning my rooms. I'm not saying that I'm not going to do the paper or clean my rooms, but I'm no longer despairing over it.

I feel quite refreshed. :D

And I've lost the feeling in both my legs and face.

Yeah...this stinks....
Ergh...I'm not in a very good mood right now. I've got a paper due Thursday, the subject of which I have absolutely no interest in. I also need to clean my new room, straighten up my old one, and move things from my old room into my new room.

I checked out books from the library for the paper, and I've tried reading them. It's awful. I...it's just........oy.

So, I'm struggling through that. I'm feeling a lot of anxiety right now, and I really just want to curl up somewhere and wait for it to go away.

But I know that no matter how much I would like to be able to do that, it just won't happen.







Happy Thanksgiving, by the way.

   I'm back!!!!!!!!!
My dad has been going nuts with this computer for the past week or so, leaving me just about no time to get on.

But soon that won't matter, because sometime next week I finally get my laptop!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!! No more sharing the computer! I can log online whenever I want! :D :D :D :D

Heh. I'm excited.

I can't really think of much to say except that I really need to go to OB. My RPG's are probably dead. -_-;

I'm not sure if I'll be able to post again until I get my laptop hooked up to the Internet, so goodbye for now. :D

   Random 11:13pm quiz...


What Shoujo Mascot Are You?

Comments (0) | Permalink

Stuff....yeah....
Ergh...I was really out of whack today. I got to school quite late, since my clothes hadn't been run through the drier last night, so I had to wait for them to dry. I was quite groggy for most of the day, probably due to last night.

Last night I went to see The Matrix: Revolutions at 9:30. Yes, on a school night. It ended at about 11:45. I went home, got ready for bed, etc. etc.

I could have slept through Algebra II. I think what we're doing is actually something I haven't done before, and I don't understand why it works, but I know how it works, and that's all that really matter right now. My elementary/middle school was a very good one.

In English I had a vocabulary test today. I don't know what I got, but I know it was below an 80, as my teacher announced the people who did. That didn't bother me so much, I know that in the end everything will turn out all right.

After that was history, I had another test. I think I did relatively well. I really like my History teacher. He gives us lemon drops every time we take a test. They are so good!

After history was French; re-learning old stuff in order to understand something new. I'm sure to pass with flying colors.

After French was my Off period, which happened to merge with my Lunch period, thus producing a Super-Off! I got a turkey club sandwich for lunch, once it was finished I set about scavenging. One of my friends didn't want his fries, so he gave them to me. They were taken by someone else. I ate the potato chips that came with my sandwich and waited patiently.

The person who took the fries lost interest in them and I got them back. I went and got a small container of ketchup; ketchup could overpower the excess salt that repelled everyone but me.

I get back to the table, and the same friend that gave me the fries tries to take them away from me. Only he hits the cup and spills the fries in my lap. I brushed them off and snatched a bag of Mike and Ike's, half of which spilled on the floor. Not my best theft, but I managed to get Mike and Ike's out of it. ^_^

After I finished lunch, I followed some friends to the computer lab, where they introduced me to an online Risk game. I played one game and was soundly defeated, but still had fun.

After my Super-Off was Chemistry. Another class I could sleep through and not miss anything. We watched a monotonous movie; it was painful...

After Chemistry was Theology. Nothing much to say about it, except that we spent the whole class discussing a newspaper article. I'm glad that our teacher has such frayed focus.

I went to my Sophmore Student Council meeting today. We didn't really do anything besides take a look at what we made at our last fundraiser and discuss our Treasurer's love life. >.> I watched, amused and socially invisible.

After that, I went to a meeting to join the Rifle Club. It was a spur-of-the-moment thing. I already have many other groups that I'm involved in; more so than I can consider at any one given time. I need some sort of pocket calendar or palm pilot. >.> I've got a Rifle Club Practice, a play, and a Confirmation Lock-In/Retreat thingy. Heh, I had agreed to babysit on that night as well, luckily I canceled before it was too late.

I went and helped work on our Drama set after that meeting was over. I basically held boards in place while people drileld them in. I wasn't of much help, so I left a bit early and talked to my friend Tim, who is also joining Rifle Club.

Confirmation tonight was chaotic, to say the least. Our main teacher wasn't there, so the two aides had to run the meeting. I felt like shouting many times tonight, just to silence the blatantly disrespectful members of the group.

The aides caved partway through and gave us a five minute break. While the others went and lounged, gossiped, got coffee, and played foosball, I left. I walked outside to get some fresh air and to cool off. To my great delight, Christina was standing just outside, too. Her mom is the janitorial staff for the building we have our meeting in, and was working on the other floors. It was very ice to see Christina and talk to her again. I hardly ever see her more than a rare half a minute and an even rarer "hello". She's still in 8th grade at my old school.

So, we talked and joked around a bit. Then my five minutes were up and I went back upstairs, feeling very much elated.

>.< I need to find my school calendar before I can tally up the S-F.C.E. profits.

   Computer.........no?
So, the word from my Uncle has suddenly changed. Rather than fix my old computer and putting in a much, much better hard drive, he thinks I should just buy my laptop, which I've got just about enough money to get. It'll be faster even than my improved old computer by a good margin, and it comes with a warranty. Not to mention that I'll have the mobility that I've always wanted.

It just seems weird for some reason. When I heard that I might not get the computer again, and have my laptp instead, it struck me as unnatural for some reason.

Bleh, I've got to go. My parents want sleep.

   Weekend....
Hmm, nothing much is happening. I haven't heard from my uncle yet about my computer. I'm sure that it will be fine, but I just can't wait to get it back and get AIM installed on it. *twitch* It's pretty chilly here in Groton and other nearby parts of CT. It very, very windy out and I just now heard a garbage can roll into the street....*twitch* Ergh...I always start to twitch whenever I get cold. I think it has something to do with my joints stiffening. The twitches loosen them up and...yeah...I'm going to stop talking about my twitching now...

Every one of the three days of school I had this week the wind has blown so hard that our whole school shakes. We're talking a two story stone building, too. I'm in constant fear of the windows shattering under the pressure.

I've been doing well in all of my classes except English. It's more Philosophy than English though, I think. We're reading storys and poems from different cultures, and then reading between the lines to see what the authors were supposedly trying to get across to their readers. I just don't get it. -_-;

Heh, I still haven't moved much out of my old room. I just don't have enough stuff to put my other stuff into or onto, if that makes any sense.

I have a very nice framed collage a friend of mine gave me as a graduation gift. That, and the clock she bought for me in Puerto Rico. Unfortuantely, I don't have a table or a desk to put them on. I suppose I could put them on the computer console, but I'm trying to avoid cluttering that up like I did before.

There's no point in me bringing my bureau up there either. I have neither a door to cover my doorway nor blinds to cover my window. Chnaging in my new room would not be a good idea without these things, as you can well imagine.

Hmm....what else was it that I needed...?

Oh, yeah. I need a new chair, I think. The one I have right now, while comfortable and swivel-y, is leaving deep marks in my oh-so-comfortable rug.

I really ought to start up my new digimon RPG, but I'm hoping that more people will sign up for it. I don't want to be low on particiapants like W.H.A.T.E..

Hmm...I need to tally up the Seventy-Five Cent Empire profits. More stuffs later, hopefully.

   Moving upstairs...
I'm in the process of moving upstairs, having finished building the room Tuesday night. Or rather, Wednesday morning. (we finished at 12:20am) So, now I have a room upstairs and one downstairs. I've been busy the past few days mocing stuff upstairs and with school work. School's a pain sometimes. :p

What is incredibly awesome about moving upstairs is that I get my computer back as soon as it's fixed, which means AIM and otaku stuff galore! YAY! ^__________^

And my grandparents gave me one of their old tv's, so I'll be able to hook up my Gamecube up there too. I really need to practice playing SSBM; I'm barely holding my own against my friends. >.>

Solo and terra both posted in W.H.A.T.E., which is a very good thing. Hopefully we'll keep it going yet. I've got several applicants for my new Digimon RPG, some of which seem to be a bit sketchy...I'm beginning to think that it's good that I re-imposed my usual standards. It may severely cut down the number of people in it, though :p

Hmm...what else....?

I've signed up for terra and Arcadia's RPG as a Desperado, cowboy person. I'm a nearsighted old guy with a shotgun. ^__^

I absolutely love Solo's fanfic. I want to be in it!!!! I can't wait for whatever he writes next. :D

I wrote a poem today in English as the essay portion, I may just post that at OB later. I don't think it's very good, but then again, most people over-criticize their work.

That's all I can think of for now. I'll see about posting more often, but I'm not making any promises.

My dad started playing the first Max Payne a couple of days ago. >.>

   *Does a little dance*
Heh, I've got the day off today. :D Whenever the Bishop of our Diocese visits my school, we get a day off; to be used when most conveniant.

Well, today's the day. :D We have tomorrow off for Veteran's Day and we needed to get our water tested again for hazardous waste that we students already knew was there. :D I'm not and school, and (most of) you are! Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!

Okay...calming down...

I've got two applicants for my new Digimon RPG. I'll have to run a background check like I normally do, but they okay so far. Nerdsy has showed something like interest and Solo jumped at the prospect before I had it up. ^_^ I'm so glad.

So, today I'm going to my old school, which is having a normal day today. Incidentally, my dad works there. I'm going to do some filing for a friend of his for community service hours (required at my school) and then help him if I have the time.

He works in the kitchen, so it's not like my help will be all that missed. He's got two helpers, and when you get too many people in that kitchen it starts to get counter-productive.

So, I'm off. :D
