Tired as hell... =(

10:55 PM Today was a really tiring day. Around 11 AM I took a shower and got ready to leave for Matt's house. I brought my bike so that I could practice riding it around Matt's neighborhood. I'll be honest. I grew up in a bad neighborhood in the South side of San Antonio where practically every street is filled with passing by cars. So I never learned to ride a bike as a child. I practiced around his neighborhood and I did better than I thought I would considering that today was my first official day of training. I found out that Matt's bike got a flat tire so they had to fix it at the Diamond Shamrock so I figured that I would bike my way there. I did pretty good, didn't have to stop so much. I went down Mike's neighborhood and noticed that both his and Matt's bikes were on the yard so I went inside Mike's house. After resting a bit Matt went ahead to his house while Mike and I went after him. Mike was helping me with my biking and he said that I've greatly improved since Tuesday. I still have problems turning though. While at Matt's we played Smash while waiting for Joey to show up. When he finally did we left to Amy's house. Amy is an Asian girl that Matt's interested in and she goes to Warren as well. While at her house more people from Warren came by, Zach and Nicole. I myself had no idea who the hell these people are since I don't go to school anymore. From what I've gathered Zach is a bisexual goth boy and Nicole...well...I don't know much 'bout her 'cept that she was Zach's girlfriend. We then went to a park and talked a bit. 'Cept for the fact that mostly I just sat there quietly. I'm really not much of the talkative type around new people. Later we went to Zach's house and hung out around there. His dog was really annoying. At about 5:30 we went to Jasmine's house. Yet another person that I don't know, but I did recognize her when I met her. And Nicole went to her house. We then went back to Amy's house. While there we all just got something to drink even though we were really hungry. Her father wanted us to leave so we did and tried to decide where to eat at. We decided on Arby's so we then started heading out. After walking so much Amy got a call from her father saying that she had to go home. Matt walked her back after leaving Zach some money to help pitch in for food. We decided to head to Yonker's first so we could get some drinks. Then we decided not to eat at Arby's but instead at House of Pizza. Joey wanted to go to Taco Cabana instead so he left on his own. We ordered a large pepporoni pizza and a small order of cheese breadsticks. While waiting for our order to be done we hung around the little arcade area they had, though by "hanging around" I mean sitting on top of these huges stacks of chairs. We then started talking about random stuff and then for some strange reason Zach grabbed the lower part of my hand. I didn't freak out though 'cause I was tired and didn't really care what was going on. He then pulls my hand toward himself and kinda starts laughing. I turn to him and notice that he's holding my hand right above his crotch. He then asks "What, you're not gonna do anything?" I just shrugged and told him "Whatever." Then he starts pulling my hand down on his crotch. I pulled my arm away and just said "Sorry man but I've only just met you today." He just went "Aww" kinda sadly and laughed. Joey returned after a while and ate his food. I think he ended up getting El Pollo Loco instead, *shrug* whatever. Matt comes back and then the food's ready. When we opened the box we freaked out becuase the pizza was really greasy and nasty. I ate one slice and halfway through the second one I felt really sick so I stopped eating. The breadsticks looked nasty too. Everyone else ate more than I did except for Jasmine becuase she already ate before we picked her up. I'm never eating from House of Pizza ever again. That shit was NASTY!! After the crappy meal (if you could call it that) we headed out for home and went our separate ways. Mike and Jasmine went one way and Matt, Zach, and I went another. Zach was describing to Matt the problems with he and Nicole's relationship during the trip. I just quietly walked behind them and minded my own business. Relationships (the lovy kind) are one game that I try not to play. Mainly 'cause I believe it's just pain waiting to happen. Upon reaching Matt's house I got all my stuff together and got my bike. While heading home I didn't really bike much becuase I was really tired and my legs, especially my left one, were really banged up. This day has been really tiring on my legs. But the bright side is that I weighed myself today and I'm now 160 lbs. w00t. I have three days off until Thursday so I'm definately gonna use tomorrow to rest myself up a bit. Well, ja ne...wait...who the hell am I talking to? *crickets chirping*

ADVENT CHILDREN HELLS YEAH!!

9:38 PM I got a call from the theatre today while I was playing Smash with my step-brothers. My mother answered it and I told her to tell them that I wasn't home. I figured that they wanted me to take someone's shift but I already worked for the day so I said "Fuck that" Turns out that my Assistant Manager Ben wanted me to call them, so I did on my cell phone. Ben told me that he burned a copy of Advent Children for me and had it at the theatre. I thought he was joking 'cause first off: he's Ben who can be an ass at times and because it's FUCKIN' ADVENT CHILDREN! Well he said that there were no strings attached and that if I wanted it I had to pick it up tonight. I hung up and told my mother (since I can't drive) that I just frickin' had to pick it up! So she said that she would drop me off later in the night. Well, I spent the time watching recorded episodes of Dr. Phil with my mother. It's crazy what stuff appears in that show. One mother treated one of her daughters like a princess just becuase she's pretty and treats her other daughter like crap just becuause she has a skin disease, it a bit overweight, and isn't as pretty as her sister. That bitch needed to be fucking slapped and have her kids taken away from her. THOSE ARE HER FUCKING CHILDREN AND SHE TREATS ONE OF THEM LIKE SHIT! *venting overwith* Well, anyways I went to the theatre and there was a shit load of assholes that I like to call "Pre-teens" that were just hanging around the street, not the sidewalk, like fuckin' cattle. Well, I walked inside and asked if Ben was there. They called him down and he brought the CD-R with Advent Children. He was telling me how bad ass it is. I told him that he'd never see that disc again and he didn't mind. Also he told me that it's subtitled so w00t! Unfortunately I have to re-download the DivX plug-in so that I can watch it. Currently it's at 74% but I still can't wait. And if my comp is really craptacular to that extent then I'll just watch it at a friend's house and mooch off their comp! XD Well, laters. Ja ne! P.S. hope some of you like the new stuff on the site. Unfortunately the cooler older wallpaper was messing up. =(

Ninjas!

11:42PM Not much goin' on, just felt like puttin' some ninja stuff. "Flip out like a ninja! DO IT! DO IT NOW!" "YOU WON'T!" ________________________________ Ninja joke time! Two ninjas walk into a bar... They assainate everyone there. . .. ...*cricket chirping* *ahem* ________________________________ Ninja pick up lines! "Will you be the holster to my kunai?" "If you were a scroll, I'd study all your jutsus!" Opening the Scroll *opens ninja scroll* -,O "Shopping spree no jutsu? DA FUCK?!" O,O "hmm? Nani? You don't understand me no jutsu? Are are..."-,- Well, that's the product of my boredom! TIME FOR! "Da Fuck?!" I found 2 very strange threads on Gaiaonline.com tonight. #1 A guy complains that he hates his foreskin becuase it gets in the way when he pisses and accidently "showers" himself. My reply: "Dude...didn't you learn how to take a piss during your years of life? Pull it back dude. Also make sure to aim and shake it when you're done" #2 Another RE-RE posts a thread stating that according to his mother Darwin was a Satanist and other bullshit. My reply:"That's a load of bullshit. I hate it when people hide behind religion and blame everything on "Satan". Darwin never even stated that humans evolved from apes. He merely stated that species evolve in order to survive this world. Survival of the fittest. The appendix is proof of that. Currently it's not a vital organ; however ages ago it was because our ancestors would eat uncooked meat. So DUH! we evolved and adapted to cooked meat. Technically didn't Satan once offer Jesus control of the governments? Le gasp! Who's in charge of the treasurey? THE GOVERNMENT! What does the Dollar Bill say? IN GOD WE TRUST! 'Do you think they're cognizant of how bad they've got it?' 'Let's hope not. Poor Bastards.'" Well, that's all for tonight! Ja ne!

What's been going on recently

1:33 AM Well, things have been ok lately. Friday Matt and I went to a party that James was having. James is a guy that I knew from school. The party started out slow 'cause everyone was complaining about the "Sausage fest"; hell even the gay guy was complaining. You gotta know it's crappy when the gay guy's complaining about a party filled with guys. I didn't care because we were watching Naruto; the episode where Sasuke is fighting Naruto and they flashback to when Itachi killed his clan. It got better when we hooked up Smash and Naruto. This guy Chris was really good at Naruto. I found out that my Sasuke is now better than my Gaara. Also my Marth in Smash has now gotten better. I also helped some guys in Devil May Cry 3. This one guy really sucked becuase he couldn't beat the 2nd mission on Easy difficulty, and he was using Gunslinger. All in all the party was ok, but it was really hilarious Patrick was rapping about "The Real SlimAsian". Saturday I worked closing concession. It was tiring. There was one couple in my line that kept making out in front of me. Made me sick. When I came home I watched the premiere episode of Naruto and I was uber upset. The dubbing was terrible along with pronunciation. They omitted the opening sequence of the Fox Demon so that makes the story weird for first timers. Sakura's voice was annoying along with Naruto's and Kakashi's. AND THEY MISPRONOUNCED SASUKE'S LAST NAME!! Not to mention they butchered the opening and ending themes by changing them completely that they're not even the original ones! But watching Escaflowne made me feel better. I have that movie on DVD and it makes me feel better when I'm depressed at times. Today at work was pretty good. I brought my Gorillaz Demon Days CD and everyone kept wanting to listen to Feel Good INC. Well, can't really think of much. Currently talking to Kai in Austin. I'm glad to hear that Tori's feeling much better. Ja ne.

Suffering

1:59 AM Yeah, a little depressing. Why must this world have suffering? Why must people have to suffer? Questions that have no answers nor solutions. Many times people feel that the world is against them. They find it difficult to look through the darkness. During these times we should look to the light of those important to us. No one should suffer in solitude and friends are there to help you. And it shouldn't just have to be people you know. The thing worser than to suffer is to suffer by yourself with no one to support you or make you feel better. If there is a god, then why the hell is there so much suffering that's allowed? A belief cannot make the world better, only mankind can. Man currently has more power now than a belief does. Well, this is something that I wanted to say 'cause I kinda felt it building up. What with the hurricane and other affairs. On a lighter note I finally got a new phone. So goodbye to the craptacular one. My number is (210)379-6418. Feel free to call if you want, I'm lonely most of the time and wouldn't mind a nice conversation. Ask for Shiro and I'll most likely be there to answer. Also I finally beat Devil May Cry 3 (bad ass game) and KOTOR. Well, hopefully I'll be able to hang out with some of my friends tomorrow..or should I say later today >,>. Sayonara.

Tired...

12:08 AM I just finished my only meal today (I don't count the popcorn from work) after pulling off an eleven hour shift. I worked 11 AM-10 PMish. My left calf muscle is killing me though. This morning I started reading The Magician's Nephew which is the first book in the Chronicles of Narnia. My Tia Molly got me all seven books for my birthday so I figured I'd read them also considering that The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe movie comes out this December. Well, during work I read that book during the dead hours, which were quite numerous. I finished the book in a day. I've never finished a book in a day no matter how long it is because I'm lazy like that. Though I'd be more excited if I finished Lord of the Rings in a day. And yes I am talking about the whole series. That'd be crazy in my opinion. You'd have to have a crazy reading speed. Well, before eating my mother and I were discussing things like theories in the War of the Worlds movie and religion. I was mentioning how a lot of simple people tend to hide behind religion. She doesn't believe that, but I know that a lot of people tend to hide behind it. Why? Becuase it comforts them. People think that they're living pure lives (when obviously they're not 'cause people tend to be A-Holes a lot) and that they're going to heaven when they die. Well according to Catholic belief it's not until Judgement Day where your soul is decided on where it goes, either eternal damnation (Yay!) or salvation and paradise. What you believe in is your business. I just believe that you should live to the fullest while being as good a person that you see fit. God or no god, what it comes down to is that religion is a theory on how to live life as a good person...except with politics; hence the Pope, Cardinals, Bishops, Rabbis, and what have you. Want to know a Satanic belief? I read this in the Satanic Bible at the library: If you commit a sin, you may choose to either acknowledge that sin and never commit it again or choose not to acknowledge the sin and continue sinning. Even though it's a Satanic belief I believe that it's pretty accurate. And if any of you feel offended or feel like lecturing me:YOU'RE SHIT OUT OF LUCK! DON'T BOTHER WASTING MY TIME OR YOURS.

Boredom and recent events

7:57 PM It's been really boring since school started for everyone. All of my friends that are still in high school say that I'm lucky, but in reality I miss it becuase I can't be around my friends as much as I used to. Well, Sunday night my stoner friend Julian called me. It's been a while since we talked to each other. Unfortunately he started smoking weed again after being off of it for 3 monthes. But he told me that he's been talking to this girl and that he's really fascinated by her and now he wants to finish high school and go to college. Hopefully she could also push him to stay off that weed for a while. I asked about his nephew and he says that little guy is crazy. He's gonna be a year old in October. His sister and her boyfriend Jeff havn't gotten married yet. Julian says they're still planning that out. They're probably gonna wait for Steph to graduate high school first. Yeah, that's right. She's not even out of high school and already a mother. This morning I had to go to my aunt's house becuase my mother had to work there and she had to drop me off work this morning at 10 AM so I chilled there for a while. I got to meet Happy though. He's the puppy that my tia took in after he was injured by that truck. He's a cute little mixed Border Collie. He likes to be petted a lot. It sucks though when you see his missing leg becuase it just makes me feel really sad for the little guy. I was laughing when he was looking up at me one time becuase it looked to me as though he was cross-eyed so I started laughing a lot. Apparantly the Jack Russel Terrier, Rusty, doesn't take too fondly of Happy. Mainly becuase now Rusty can't get all the attention that he used to get. Well, work was really boring so there's not much use in writing about that. Laters.

Robert's B-day

1:33 PM I just got back from Robert's b-day party at his house which took place yesterday. First, Matt, Mike, Noel, and I got there at around 1 PM. We started off by playing some Smash and Naruto. Later on some more of Robert's friends (who are younger than us) and Chris from Purple Cactus came over. We still played some Smash and later went out to the pool. When I went to Matt's house Mike asked if I brought swimming trunks. I don't have any so I looked at him and said, "If my 'swimming trunks' you mean boxers, then yes." Mike just started laughing and said, "Let's just hope nothing pops out." I also said that at Robert's house and I asked his mom if I could borrow a stapler. The reason why: To staple up the crotch hole in my boxers. heh. But she let me borrow some swimming trunks that they had in the house. I was a bit nervous at first becuase I can't swim very well and becuase I hate my body. But I just said to myself "Fuck it!" and I threw off my shirt and jumped in. The guys kinda made a few jokes at first, but I just played along and didn't really care. We played some CTF in the pool but the game was going nowhere really fast so we played Marco Polo instead. It was really funny while playing. At some points we would make fun of some of our friends while playing. Mike would yell out in the Noel voice "It's pretty obvious!" and we would respond "Gosh, it's not that hard!" and when we would yell out "Gay!!" we responded "Rematch!!" It was really fun. For some strange reason Chris got sunburned on his knees, even though they were submerged the entire time. Later on came more Smash, Halo2, and DDR. Robert and his friend Josh started to get addicted to it, so they were playing the majority of it. They're ok for beginners but they don't tend to listen when I tell them NOT to put their feet back in the center square. I played a lot of DDR as well, so much that my feet hurt at this very minute. Noel had to go to work at around 6 PM but he ordered us some pizza when he came back. Pizza and DDR. We also had a team tournament in Smash. I got paired up with Chris and we were a horrible team. We were both Marths and we kept fighting each other even though we were supposed to be fighting with each other. BUT WE STILL WON ANYWAY!! At first we thought Mike and Matt would've won, but it came down to Chris and myself against Noel and Robert's friend Josh (yet another Marth user). We also swam in the pool again around midnight playing Marco Polo again becuase Sharks and Minnows was going nowhere as well. When Mike turned me into a shark I cheaply yelled out "Oh no! I am a shark now!" and then before the beginning of the next round I yelled out "Does this mean I'm now a vampire shark?!" Matt just responded "YOU WISH!" Then they played Halo, Mario Kart, and other games with gliches while I was slowly falling asleep. I couldn't sleep though becuase Mike kept throwing ice at me that he grabbed from an ice cooler. I kept throwing them back at him though. We didnt' fall asleep till about after 6 AM. Noel and I slept a bit while they were playing Halo, but at around 4 AM Robert and Mike went to sleep, two of Robert's friends were already asleep at around 2 AM. Matt and Chris decided to sleep on the hard wood floor. Noel and I couldn't fall asleep for a while, especially because Chris was on the floor playing Nintendo DS. I also talked about how F'ed up my family is and Matt said that his whole family is successful except for himself. Then Noel and I walked around and messed with Robert and Mike. For revenge I grabbed a handfull of ice and stuffed some down Mike's shirt. He really didn't care, he just grabbed some and threw it at me. When I came back to the room Chris jacked my "bed" on the loveseat sofa. So Noel and I were trying to go back to sleep on the opposite sides of the same couch. Also we talked about random stuff like me trying to find a better job, how his mother took his driver's permit, how I frickin' need to learn to drive and save up for a damn car. I couldn't sleep there, but it was funny listening to Matt snore. It sounded like he was saying "Hmm.." in a high pitch as if he was thinking. Noel, Chris, and I just laughed. Matt, Noel, and I also laughed earlier when Chris was twitching in his sleep. Well, I decided that I really wanted to sleep so I went to the next room and slept on the futon sofa. Even though Noel and I told Chris and Matt that there was a futon sofa they didn't believe us and decided to sleep on the floor. We woke up around Noon. And Robert, Matt, and Chris wanted to go to a tournament at Purple Cactus at around 1 PM. We quickly got our stuff ready becuase I had to leave too. I have to work at 4 PM today. While getting our stuff Robert's mom said she was gonna cook some breakfast, so we decided to stay a bit longer. Also Mike kept bugging Chris by repetively saying "So how comfortable was the hard wood floor?" and Chris got annoyed and kept saying "Zero." Chris also sayed that we're gonna turn that into another Marco Polo thing. While eating breakfast, which consisted of eggs w/cheese & ham, pan dulce, and ceral (I feel uber fat now) Matt freaked out when Robert's mom said that it was 1 PM. Matt then kept telling Robert to call Purple Cactus, but he wouldn't becuase he was playing DDR. Matt pushed him off and took his place while Robert then called. I think they got Cliff to reserve three spots for them, so I think they're still gonna go. Matt, Chris, Mike, and Noel all decided that Robert's party was a bad idea because we hardly got any sleep and they have school tomorrow. I was the only one that's not in high school anymore. Mike just shrugged it off and said, "Not like there's anything important to do on the first day." That's true, but the fact remains. Since I'm off tomorrow I'm gonna spend it sleeping, while sadly remembering some of my friends in school. Hey Seth, I'm gonna miss you during the school year along with all my other friends. Shit this school year's gonna be weird and boring for me. Hopefully I can get a job that won't consume my weekends as much.

crappy day at work

12:10 AM I'm not sure if it was becuase of my attitude for the day, or if the day was just crappy on it's own. I was scheduled to work 2-10 in box office, but when I clock in I'm told to go to concession until I'm called to box. So I go back to the back of the stand, put on my apron and hairnet, and go into the concession stand. I immediatly started working on filling up the popcorn warmers and what-not. I had some interesting conversations with my supervisor Robert. We talked about guitar and music, stuff like that. We also talked about the rumors of management searching for new supervisors. I really don't care much for it becuase I doubt that I'll get the position, also becuase I'm seriously thinking of getting another job. Some of my co-workers were getting on my nerves though. The definate one was Giovanni. Nobody likes him and that includes myself. He's really annoying and won't listen to me even though I've worked much longer than he has. I really hate it when people who've worked less than I have try to tell me what not to do even though I'm doing it the right way. For example, I had to replace an oil bib for the popper and I needed to turn the bib over becuase someone put it in upside down. Well Mukasa, he's a pretty cool guy, comes along and asks what I'm doing. I tell him that I'm turning it over and he immediatly tells me not to and that it's correct the way it is. I turned it over and pointed to him and said "See, 'This side up to dispense.'" Later on Becka came by and asked for an employee cup and straw/lid. When I got it for her she asked me "Why do you look so sad?" I'm used to this question a lot, it's not new to me. I just told her that's how I am and she made her cute little pouty face. Then she started telling me about her day earlier and I politely listened. Afterwards she left and yet another female co-worker commented on my attitude. A girl named Desirea said that I never smile. I responded by telling her that the reason is due to certain factors. I really hate explaining why I hardly smile. I'll smile whenever the fuck I feel like it and that's not her fucking problem. She then started telling me this "Smile while your alive" and other religious "God will take you up to heaven" bullshit. Later on around 9 PM I found out from Ben, a member of senior staff, that they let the 2-10 box people go home around 7 PM. I got a little pissed, but I really didn't care. I needed the hours and also I took the remainder of someone else's shift, so I closed for the night. A total of around 9 1/2 hours. Part 2 12:07 PM (the reason why I didn't finish typing all of it was becuase Samantha called me and I havn't talked to her in a long time.) While on the subject of closing, that's what pissed me off the most. I hate it when I'm closing and I see a bunch of people not doing their job properly. I was about to clean out the popper and Eddie comes by saying that he's going to do it. I look at him as if saying "What the fuck, man!" so I just said "Fine, whatever. I'm gonna get the kettle ready for cleaning. So after I start up the kettle to get cleaned I go to the back and wash the dishes for the popper. As I was washing I thought to myself, "I'll bet a hundred bucks that the kettle is already boiling and no ones dumped it." Well, I was right. And Eddie was gone and did a crappy job of cleaning the popper. I would think that if that bastard is going to do something the least he could do was do it right. So I had to clean up the remainder of his mess. Also a lot of people didn't put away the brooms, dustpans, mops, mop buckets, pushbrooms, etc. So I had to put all that back into the janitor's closet. While I was putting away some of the stuff I slipped on the watery floor and banged up my elbow on the side of the door. It hurt for a while and I couldn't really move it very well. Now it's just a bruise, but still hurts a bit. Then we're waiting for a member of senior staff to come down and check on us and he's just taking his time. While waiting some girl was bitching about how tired she was and that she wanted to go home. I didn't say anything but I got a bit pissed thinking "You hardly did anything you fuckin' slacker." Well, Ben was in a hurry when he finally came down and checked us. It was about 11:30 PM when he said I could clock out. As I left there were a bunch of people in the lobby that just finished watching Red Eye. I was in no mood for socializing so I headed straight to clock out while saying "Look at all these people in my way." I've actually been saying that a lot that evening becuase literally there were a lot of people in my fucking way not doing anything. There were some good moments though. It was funny when that girl Desirea found out that Musoke and Mukasa were brothers. She said "I thought they were 'brothas' not 'brothers'!?" I started laughing along with my supervisor Aaron and I just said "It's probably becuase you're black Musoke." Musoke doesn't mind remarks like that becuase he and his brother are "black in training." Though Mukasa is further in the program becuase he lived in Philly for a while. Then we started joking around saying that Philedelphia is the Mecca for black people. It was really funny. Well, ok. Whatever. Hopefully today will be a better day.
