Time of post: 3:02 AM

Hey everyone. Today has been pretty good. I ended up going over to Walter's house for pretty much the entire day. After I woke up at 3:30 PM that is ~_^ (I really don't like waking up that late though.)

I was originally going over to help fix his computer. His brother (Chris) did something to mess it up pretty bad. He uses dial-up and for some reason, it refuses to connect to the internet now. It says it can't find a dial tone.

After a long while trying, which included reinstalling Windows, we came to the conclusion that it just wasn't going to work. We even tried going to my house to get a couple of different modems to try. It just really didn't want to be fixed.

Anyway, we also ended up on the trampoline when we came for the modems which was fun. I hadn't been on it in a long time. It really does take a lot out of you when it's as hot as it was outside though.

Later on at Walter's house, his parents ordered Chinese food for dinner. It was a really great moment for us to come downstairs though (his room, and the computer, is upstairs). We were getting a little hungry and wanted to see what there was to eat when his parents tell us they're ordering Chinese and asked us what we wanted. Talk about timing ^_^

Well, that's really about it for tonight. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. I figured today was going to be really boring. It randomly turned around though.

I woke up around 3 PM and then ended up going to Staples with my mom. Then, we went to visit my grandmother. I thought that this would be pretty much all I did today.

In the parking lot, I got a call from Andrew T. He told me he had an extra ticket to the Giants game and asked if I wanted to go. So, we went and had a good time, spending way too much money for a single bottle of soda ($4.25). It was really hot though and we were thirsty. I just hate how much they charge for that kind of thing.

So, that's how my boring day turned un-boring ^_^ And that's also all I have for tonight. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was a lot of fun. Jesse slept here last night so we played Final Fantasy again for a while. I actually made a lot of progress.

Seeing as it was Thursday, it was time for General Tso's ^_^ We left for the restaurant at around 1:30. It was great as usual.

From there, we headed over to GameStop for a little while. This turned out to be an adventure though. I picked up Final Fantasy VIII and Perfect Dark (N64, and only $6 - I've wanted it forever) while I was there.

Here's where it gets interesting though. As we pulled in (we were riding bikes), we saw this kid eying Jesse's bike. It really looked like he was getting ready to steal it. So, Jesse whispers to me to make sure I lock up the bikes (like I usually do) because of that kid.

As we're leaving GameStop, that kid sees us and tells us that Jesse's bike looks a lot like the bike he had that got stolen a few years ago. He told us that his mom was on the way with the serial number (it's a Haro bike, each one has a serial number because they're pretty expensive) and asked us to hang around.

Knowing the bike wasn't stolen, we figured why not just hang out until his mom got here. So, we went back into GameStop until the police showed up. They asked me to unlock the bikes, checked the serial number, found out it wasn't stolen, and we left. It was quite the trip to GameStop.

Anyway, we ended up at his house and played Snowboard Kids for Nintendo 64. That's a really fun game ^_^ We also played some pool, as usual.

So, we finally went back to my house for dinner when Sara (once again, not the one on my friends list) calls and asks if we want to go hang out with her and her friend Liz. She came and picked us up and the plan was to go mini golfing. We drove way past the golf course though, missed like five U-turns (because she wouldn't listen to us when we told her where one was ^_^), and ended up at a diner where we got some appetizers.

We ended up going bowling which was pretty fun. We all did really bad seeing as we haven't bowled in forever. It was fun though.

Finally, we went to Sara's house to play DDR for a little while. We also played ping-pong while waiting for her parents to finish their movie. After that, Sara drove us home.

Wow, sorry this got as long as it did. That's it though. So, thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was actually a lot of fun. I woke up and went out to lunch with Andrew S. and Sara (Andrew's girlfriend, and one of my mom's students who came to Italy). We just went up to Park Ave and got something to eat there.

After that, we came back to my house because Andrew had to go home. We waited a few minutes and then his mom came. After he left, I asked Sara if she wanted to stick around and meet Jesse (long story as to why she wanted to meet him).

So, after about twenty minutes, Sara and I drove over to Jesse's and ended up going to get ice cream. Then, we went back to Jesse's house and Sara went home.

After some pool and some installing of stuff for his dad, we came back to my house to play Halo with my brother and his friends. That didn't last too long though.

And that's really about it. Other than my continuing of Final Fantasy VII, I didn't do too much else today.

So on that note, I'm going to head out. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

P.S. The Sara mentioned this post is not the same as the Sara on my friends list (and is not a member of this site at all).

Hey everyone. Sorry for not posting yesterday but I didn't have an internet connection. I still technically don't today but I wanted to get online so I'm using the satellite card form my dad's company. It's not as fast as a regular connection though so I really won't be able to do much on myO.

Anyway, today's been good. Jesse slept here last night and we were up pretty much all night playing Final Fantasy. He was playing FF X and I was playing VII. This is the first time I've actually played through it myself.

Tomorrow is Andrew S's last day here though. I'm not sure what time he's leaving but it will be some time tomorrow.

That's really about all for tonight. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was good. I woke up around 1 to get ready for General Tso's. It was going to be just Andrew S, Jesse, and me but we also found Andrew T. before we left so we all went. It was excellent as usual ^_^

We spent the rest of the day going through Final Fantasy VII (one person playing, the others watching though still interacting with the game). So yeah, that was fun.

A little while ago, Andrew S. beat Final Fantasy IX so now we're back to VII. We're nowhere even close to done with that one though.

Anyway, that's really about all for today. I'm sure there was something else I wanted to say but I can't think of it now. So, have a great day!

Hey everyone. Today was pretty good. We actually managed to keep ourselves occupied throughout most of the day ^_^ There was no Andrew T. today though.

So, Jesse, Andrew S, and I ended up walking back and forth between mine and Jesse's houses a lot. We played pool for a little while and then spent most of the day playing Halo 2 (as usual).

On a random note, last night was the most fun group chat I was ever in. It consisted of a bunch of myO members in a really random conversation. It was great though ^_^

Tomorrow (well technically today but you know how my posts work) is Thursday so that means General Tso's! I haven't had it in a few weeks now so I'm looking forward to it.

Anyway, Jesse is sleeping over tonight so that means Andrew S. and he is here. Heh, if you've been reading even a few of my recent posts, you can probably guess that either Guild Wars (and Final Fantasy VII for Andrew S.) or Halo 2 will be played tonight.

Well, that's about all for me tonight. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

P.S. Sorry for the lack of visiting. Having a friend over 24 hours a day sort of depletes your time. And in case that confused you at all, Andrew S. (from Pennsylvania) is staying at my house until Saturday because our moms went to Maine for the week.

Hey everyone. Today was pretty much how I expected it to be. The same group as yesterday (and probably the rest of the week) got together for some Halo 2. That's how most of the day was spent.

But first, a poem by Evil:

roses are red
violets are blue
you smell like ducks
I am love you

Hehe, that one was randomly written last night by her in a comment ^_^

So, besides Halo 2, we also played a little bit of pool but that didn't last too long. It was just too hot in the basement, especially with the dryer on.

Today was sort of random though. We jumped from house to house all day and even ended up walking over to Park Ave for a while. Dinner was good though - it consisted of Chinese food (which I just realized I left at Andrew T's house).

Now I'm talking to Evil and Enin via Skype. It's a free program that lets you basically use your computer as a phone to talk to anyone else who has it. And for those of you who already have it (I know there are some), would you mind PMing me your names for it so I can add you? Thanks ^_^

Anyway, that's about all for tonight. Have a great day!

Hey everyone. Not too much to report on today either. I guess I'm just back to my regular summer days.

Anyway, today, Jesse, Andrew, and I went to Burger King for lunch. From there, we came back to my house and the other Andrew came over for some Halo. Now, from this point forward, the Andrew from Pennsylvania shall be known as Andrew S. while the Andrew from my town will be known as Andrew T. okay?

Anyway, we ended up all going to Jesse's house to play cards and pool. It was the first time I played cards in a long time so we played some standard games first like Texas Holdem and Five Card Draw. We also played some variations of pool seeing as we had three people the first time and then four.

Now, I'm downstairs watching Andrew S. play Halo and I'm online talking to people. So, that's really about it for me.

Hehe, so I guess I had a little more to say than I originally thought. Anyway, have a great day!

Hey everyone. Not too much to report on today though it has been good. Andrew's here as you know. We really didn't do too much today.

We did go to see Stealth with my brother and my dad though. It was a fun movie to watch. The special effects were really good and the planes were awesome.

We're just watching TV now though. And that's really about it.

Have a great day!
