So much going on...

These past few weeks have been crazy! Everything scheduled and random has happened. I'll start off with late events. About a week ago my mom was in a "fender bender". She was at a red light, and the car in front of her started to move, as did my mom, but then the car came to a sudden stop, and my mom didn't have enough time to react. She's fine, but the headlight and fender got impaled and destroyed/damaged. Then the woman threatened to sue my mom. I don't get it. As I saw on Comedy Central one night: *Guy pulls up to a red light and stops* *other guy rams into the back of his car, gets out, is pissed* "What the Hell is wrong with you?! How could YOU stop at this red light, and let ME hit you at 80 mph?!" Yeah, that's pretty much people's retarted logic. So we have a rental now. I also got a cell phone a few days ago. It's really gonna come in handy. What else...? Oh yeah, the last bit of my "biggest online order ever" shipped yesterday. 'Bout time. In school we are having the SOLs (standards of learning) We had the reading SOL yesterday, the math one today, and will have the civics one tomorrow. SO much... Well, all the SOLs and finals will be over in... ONE MONTH?! Aw crap!

   The Great Halo Massacre

So, yesterday I went to iggy's house, and we played Halo for 5 hours strait with only two bathroom breaks. We beat the 4th and 5th missions on legendary. (surprisingly easy) and tried the 3rd one. The third mission, entitled "Truth and Reconciliation" was a complete slaughter. Once we got on board the enemy ship using the "gravity lift", all hell broke loose. A myraid of Covenant Elites, including light blue, invisible, blue, redish purple, and the most dreaded gold elites, emerged from every door. The first two doors that opened contained unshielded invisible elites with plasma scythes, which were easily dispatched. After that, the real battle began. Atleast one very tough elite, and a whole bunch of grunts and jackals came out from the four possible doorways. The elites, with their plasma scythes, cut a bloody swath through the five marines, reveling in their victims pain and blood. I took refuge atop an inactive Wraith tank, and right as I excalimed "Ha, they can't get to me up here!" A gold elite lunged at me, and hacked me to pieces with his scythe. Iggy was the only one left, and he seeked shelter in a doorway, perhaps hoping to draw the enemy into close quarters fighting. He put up a good fight, but was eventually overpowered and destroyed. We tried this part over and over, but to no sucess. We tried the last mission on legendary, and were doing pretty well, but by this time I had to go. And Happy Mother's Day!

   muscles... aching...

Today we ran the mile in PE. Again. Our class did so horribly the first time that we had to do it over. I did a lot better this time, jogging the entire mile, only stopping for a combined time of about 10 or 15 seconds. My finishing time was 9:24 or something around there. After that, we had the long jump. We could go as many times as we wanted, so I went twice. The first time I got 9'5", the second I got 9'4". I twisted my foot when i landed the second time, and since then it's been pretty tough to walk. Oh, and forgot to tell you, a few days ago in english some kid I knew was being distruptive, so the substitute took his paper away for some reason. After that he got up from his chair, and it went a little like this: "What the hell is wrong with you?! Give me back my paper you Jerk!" "What!?" Then the substitute walks over to the desk to write an AIA slip. (Alternative Instructive Somethin g) Basically in school detention. So: "Don't just walk away from me you piece of junk. Give me back me paper!" After that he was sent off to AIA. But there was only 30 minutes left in the day, so... yeah. Have a nice evening.

   The biggest online order... EVER (atleast for me)

So, not getting that many presents for my b-day, what else is their? One word: cash. I managed to scrape up a total of $347. Not bad, eh? So what did I do with all this not hard-earned loot? What else, besides spend it? I just went on an online shopping spree, buying a whole ton of anime, some games, and warhammer 40k, totaling $317 worth of merchandise. Who says money can't buy hapiness, besides some 50 year old hippie guru that believes in a jobless, crack-smoking world painted tie-die? So, anyways... This saturday i'm going over to iggy's house to play some Halo, and work on beating the game on legendary difficulty. Also on saturday though, me and my orchestra are going to to the Lake Ann Plaza to play for the public. Argh... I really hate public performances, because I always get really nervous. It's tiring too. Imagine sitting perfectly uprite in a chair and playing an instrument for one and a half hours. Tough on the back... EDIT: I put up my e-mail adress in "contact me" for the world to see, so toss me a letter anytime about whatever! (as long as it's not spam) What I should've done back in September when I went to get an eye exam...

   I just had a great idea!

My life is boring. Not above or below average, just right smack in the middle. So, I'm going to add a little pizaz to my life, by becoming the 512th person to swim the English Channel! You may think I'm slightly insane, or that I'll die trying, but I'll prove you wrong! On another, less-pointless note, I went to a barbeque yesterday. It was boring though, because there were mainly adults, and only one kid I knew. I just ate a hot dog and left after about 45 minutes. That's all for me. Here's the daily comic.

   I'm gonna do my happy dance!

I'd like to thank everybody who wished me a happy birthday! Thank you all very much! So yesterday I invited over Iggy and Matt for a birthday party thingy. We mainly just played Halo, trying to beat the second mission on legendary. So heres what I got: A .hack//sign DVD, PS2 game (Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo) a t-shirt, and a figure of the Master Chief from Halo. Thanks guys! It's only the early morning, so I have nothing else to report on. I'm gonna go play Journy to Jaburo now. Later!

   Man has prevailed over machine!

I got my computer back today! The brand new hard drive added some much-needed space, the virus is gone, and my computer is running better than ever! I can also see people's avatar now! ^_^ I originally thought they had wiped my memory, but they had just "cleaned" it, so I still have everything. But getting all my settings back was a pain in the ass. I had to re-download quicktime and AIM, (but I still have all my buddies), place and rename shortcuts, re-install mcafee security center, and a bunch of other stuff. (I'm still not done) But I feel good. Here's a comic strip to celebrate!

My computer hates me.

I know what I said about not updating, but I had recently had my computer at CompUSA to get a new hard drive installed, and a very evil virus that somehow got past my firewall off. That virus gave them hell though, so they had to do the unspeakable... They wiped my entire hard drive clean! Now all the progress I made with that computer over the year I had it went to shit. I got it back yesterday, but it had an error starting up, so we had to take it BACK to CompUSA, and i havn't heard from it since. My poor computer... Well, now you know the story of why I havn't been updating. I'm at my dad's house on his computer now. Hope to talk you you all soon! Oh yeah! The randomness!

I'm back from... uhh.. Holland! Yeah, let's go with that one...

A month and a half... I bet most people either have forgoten me by now, or just don't want to come visit me. Feel free to give me as many death threats as you wish, cause I deserve em. But I'm back now, and won't be going away again like that for a looooong time. (to the best of my knowledge.) If there's anything I can do to make up for this, I'll do it. As long as it doesn't involve being publicly humiliated, sending you money, personnal injury, or death, etc. I'll get to most everybody's site, and start putting up comic strips or random pics for my posts, starting today! Do you recognize him? It's the Pillsbury Doughboy! It would seem he was in the oven a little too long.

   Sickness is in the air...

Hey, everybody! Guess who had a relapse? Me! Yeah, I'm sick all over again, and might even have bronchitis(sp?) this time. Poo! I was coughing so much I got a bloody nose, and almost threw up a few times. But, I'll probably be back in school tomorrow, so I'll just wait and see how things turn out. On a good note, I signed up for fileplanet.com, so I have a huge source of downloads to pretty much whatever I want now! But it wasn't cheep. ($60 anualy) And with the subscription came the choice of downloading the full PC version of Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield or Splinter Cell. I got Raven Shield! It's downloading as I write this (very slowly) A total of 1217.63 megabytes! I started at 11:00 AM, and it's 4:40 PM now, and it's only 75% done. For now, I'll just have to survive...
