It's not stupid, it's.. Advanced!
I keep telling myself the title of this post, mentally, over and over, but it's not helping my hatred for this computer. But I'll get to that later.

Today in English I learned that I have been going about that big project all wrong. In my little rendition of the "I-Search," I talked about where I searched for information followed by what information I found from doing so.. My teacher informed us today that we have to talk about how we searched in one section of the report, and what we learned in a different one. To me, that really doesn't make sense, and I'm too stubborn to go and change everything now.. Oh well. This teacher is the one that employed me as yearbook designer.. Person. She might just change my grade anyway. Oddly enough, she seems like the type who would do that..

Oh, and the yearbooks finally come in this.. Wednesday, I think. This is going to be one piece of crap yearbook, a waste of thirty bucks, that I created. What a wonderful memory of what's quite possibly my last year in California. Great.

I beat Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance last night, and I say that the ending definitely could have been worse. There were enough conspiracy plot-twist things to keep me interested, though they were not as strong as those found in MGS1, but I was left scratching my head. And I like it when that happens. I didn't feel that way at the end of Twin Snakes, except for the whole "Third Les Enfante Terrible" thing.

And I got an Elephant codename again. >:O According to Code Name guides, you get that from using too many rations, but I only used 24. What the hell?

Solidus was too easy, I think. It was a cool fight, though. Metal Gear REX was sort of dull, now that I look back.

But I still don't get how Rosemary was all traitor-ey one minute and Raiden's wife the next. That is, unless Rose was just an AI replica throughout most of the game..

Oh well. All I know is that I want to get Snake Eater even more now.

Dude, I'm probably getting a Dell. I found one of their notebooks on their website, upgradable to 80GB hard drive and 1GB RAM. My initial goal was 100GB, but I also plan on getting an external hard drive.. For my music, and BT files and such. That way, if any friends of mine ever want to borrow anime, I can simply loan them the external hard drive and still keep my computer.

..Oh well. The stylin' Alienware has eluded me. Someday, though.

Only eight more days of school.. Heh, it's bittersweet. I'm probably not gonna even be at this school next year, and none of my classmates know it (except for a few).. And yet, at the same time, my mindset is mostly "I can't wait to get out of this hellhole" right now. Today alone, three people called me Harry Potter, one got on my case when they accidentally bumped into me, and two annoying ghetto people were pushing each other around in the locker room, and ended up knocking over my friends, which lead to a catacalysmic incident where the entire locker room was staring at us.

..And in Pittsburgh they don't have sales tax on food. :D
