You know, I kept thinking I forgot somebody's blog in my list....Christy...duh. Yep...she has become a part of my linkage now! Yeah! Woohoo!

Have I mentioned that she is a very excited person? Well she is...not like that's a bad thing. Just stating the obvious here...

T minus 5 days and counting...

...until Christmas Break starts!!!!!!!

The high point in my life during the school year. The one time where (usually) I get a break from crap school and crap homework. Yeah sure, I may get homework to be done over the break, but it isn't like I HAVE to finish it for the next day. I have two long weeks to do it.

O yes, just something I thought I should share with the rest of the world because of how much of a badass program it is (or at least to me it is) is Microsoft's Streets and Trips that came with my computer. The fact that this thing has every single street in the entire United States is incredible...here's a few to show what I'm talking about.

Eastgate Mall Area
My Neighborhood

On the Eastgate Mall picture, the black blobs I colored in to represent the mall and place where Best Buy is. On my neighborhood picture, the black blob is, of course, my house. You just simply type in an address and it finds it for you. You can also have it make a route for you from one spot to another with estimates in both mileage and time. It's just a phenomenal program.

Party like it's 1984

Yep...still working on it as I speak. Thank goodness for my good friend, Cliff.

*sings* It's the worst...possible time...of the year

For the first time ever I will be having my Christmas Break with a job. Break? What break?

I was hoping to go into work today and ask for Christmas Eve off so I can go do family things with my cousins and relatives like we have for the past 17 years of my life...except for this year. Instead of just posting this weeks schedule, my dick boss posts next weeks, as well...and low and behold, I'm working eve and the day after christmas. I also work a morning shift for the first time in my life.

Here's the lineup for the next couple weeks...

Sunday 3pm - 10pm
Tuesday 5pm - 10pm
Friday 4pm - 10pm
Sunday 3pm - 10pm
Tuesday 10AM - 5pm
Wednesday 5pm - 10pm
Friday 3pm - 10pm

[rant]...and why are we open for Christmas, you say? So everyone can go home to their families and have a good time, while I obviously am not granted that luxury. Last time I checked, I am the one who has worked the longest in that store and not ONCE have I called off or asked for a day off.

It's funny how one of our employees quit a few days ago because my manager was "treating him like a baby", even though he's in his late-20s. Now I'm starting to pick up on that. Now I'm starting to see what he was talking about. He treats everyone like a damn kid. I guess it rubs off from him having, like, 9 kids of his own. Jesus man, put on a fuckin' rubber or just cut your dick off...spare us the trouble. And me, after working there for 6 months, he still treats me like a fucking kid. He's threatening to fire people because we use F10 too much...which is used to delete items from the transaction screen if a person changes their mind...and that's our fault. I have to use F10 like ten times a day because all the white trash sonsabitches can't read the fine print...or maybe can't even read. It says, just like ANY other coupon I've ever seen is "Limited to one coupon per membership account per visit." So they want to use three (these are the buy one, get one free coupons), I scan six movies in, but they don't tell me they have the coupons UNTIL I scan the movies and after i tell their stupid asses they can only use one, thus leaving me to have to delete 4 movies.

Lamest thing I've heard after telling someone they can only use one is "Well, can I just walk out and walk back in?" No you f'tard, a "visit" means every 24 hours. And all I have to say to them when they're leaving is, "Movies are due back *insert due date*. Have a nice night....*under my breath while turning away* fucking idiot."[/rant]

The true meaning of Christmas...shopping!

I went to the mall for the first time in, like, a month or so. Mainly for getting gifts for my family for the first time ever in my life because I actually have a job now and that means I have money to spend...I feel the need to share the wealth of what little wealth it is...but hey...o well. I can't reveal what I got them here because no telling who reads this thing...........

Wilhelm Scream...LMFAO

Well this topic comes up in mine and Ryan's discussion a whole bunch while in study hell....the infamous Wilhelm scream. No matter who you are, you've heard it sometime or another in almost any movie possible. It is used so much, I was even amazed when i saw the list of movies with it in it. Quite possibly one of the funniest things...EVER!

The unbelievably long list of movies with the Wilhelm Scream in it

The infamous Wilhelm Scream

Fotki and me

Ok...here's all the pics I took a couple days ago and this is where I'll upload the pics from now on so I'll have it linked in my list of links...

About f@#$ing time

Finally, after waiting for a week, I received my acceptance letter to OSU. It brought a smirk to my face only to finally feel a sense of accomplishment in my life...besides that whole Eagle Scout thing...

Yeah, sure, I know many of you figured I'd get in...piece 'o' cake, but what I was fearful of was being rejected...not for grades or credentials or the pesonal essays or anything, but the 180 student cap that I was a little uneasy about (and maybe dropping a physics class too). Seeing as that it was one of the only majors I knew of that had a class limit, I figured it was one of those "elite" type courses accepting the best of the best. I wasn't sure who I was up against and wasn't sure of how many I was up against...but that's all behind me now. Get me the fuck outta here. Screw AHS...OSU is now my true home.

There’s a First for Everything (Personal prose for English)

I slowly…cautiously…anxiously approach the curb…as if it were a foreign country to me. My neighbor, only two years older than I, stands at the curb like they were born as a citizen in that country. Alongside my mother, I had dread the day this time hath come. My hands were as jittery as a jitterbug and my stomach was churning as if it were filled with butterflies. During that time, I watched in suspense as an oblong and loudly colored vehicle comes screeching to a halt near the curb with vivid, flashing lights blinking everywhere on it like it was Christmas already. Peering over my shoulder with a tear in my eye, I wave to my mom in fear of that it will be the last time I ever see her again.

I slowly…cautiously…anxiously step onto the blackened stairway to the dark and dank innards of the bus. I quickly scan the half-faces to see any familiar ones and the only one I am able to recognize is my neighbor’s who is already seated with another friend. Reluctantly, I take the empty seat at the front because it was wear I felt safe and secure, troubled by the thought of someone not enjoying my presence. As I sit in isolation from the other kids, I fidget around in my seat all the way to school and the suspense of what awaited me was going to end my life rather quickly. I glazed upon the rapidly passing trees and houses and mailboxes only to delay what was really coming, my first look at a school. The bus arrived at the school building, along with 10 or so other busses. I was so nervous that I was sweating bullets and had no idea what to expect. So I take the step off the bus, almost as if it was the infamous NASA video of Neil Armstrong leaping off the second rung of the ladder onto the moon’s surface. We were all greeted by adults who were pointing us in the direction of the classroom

I slowly…cautiously…anxiously walked up behind everyone as we all piled in, one after the other, as if we were prisoners in a death camp each walking into the burning flames of the depths of hell…school. When my turn came to step foot inside the classroom, I didn’t know what to make of it. A large, fire haired lady gleefully walking around and meeting all the newcomers while I just look on in a distraught manner. It was at that exact moment that the she caught a glance of me and headed my direction. I stood there, clutching the straps of my bookbag becoming more unglued, as the day grew old. When she reached me, she asked me my name and I responded, she directed me to my correct seat with my name and everything. After seeing my name, I had become more relaxed and it started to feel like home to me, where everybody knows your name. But that did not keep me from worrying about those around me: one to the left of me, one to the right of me, one to the front, one to the back. No matter where I looked, I knew nobody and knew nothing. As we all sat down and got quiet, I still took one last glance around the room and…nothing. What we did, if anything, in there is all just a haze to me for I was far too distressed to have a care in the world, at the moment…only to get out. The end of the day grew nearer, as the clock struck its thunderous hands from one tick to the next tock. An eternity it felt like, while waiting to be dismissed. Then the loud, clamorous sounds of the bell ringing signifying that we were free to leave, free to leave the bowels of hell, free to return to our houses, and most importantly, free to return to my mother. The first day of school was done, over with, history, no more, but little did I know that I was to endure two thousand one hundred and thirty five more days of this for the next twelve years of my futile existence. My, my, my…how time can fly….

Today is the day...

...I turn 18 and can do pretty much anything, but consume alcohol (legally). The school day wasn't really any more different than my other ones. Just had my birthday sung to me while in Spanish class in spanish while wearing a large sombrero. Everyone in theories said "Happy Birthday" to me. Thanks :)

Aside from getting two kick-ass Star Wars figures from Eric: Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi (w00t!) I got another watch because I always tend to lose my others, the Jurassic Park DVD Trilogy, the 3rd James Bond DVD collection, and an Ohio State t-shirt. The only thing that still didn't come was my letter from OSU (motherfucks). My dad (being that he works of the post office) finds it illogical that they mailed it off Wednesday or Thursday and that it still isn't here. He said that it is most likely that it was eaten by the letter sorter machine thing and that we will possibly have to call and have them resend it.

O yeah, just like every year for every birthday, I got to pick somewhere to eat and so I kept it simple by going to Golden Corral. Calena Patrick was there and was cool enough to give us a discount...sw33t.

I was hoping to have some people over Friday at whenever just to chill, but who knows.

Peace

It's my party and I cry if I want to...

No not really, BUT it is my birthday tomorrow on December 9 and to imagine I was born 18 years ago. My god. I don't expect tomorrow to happen much during school only because my birthday's never been a widely celebrated event at school. I just would have the occasional sleepover with a bunch of my friends and when I was elementary school age I had parties at fun places like Family Fun Cener, Chucke Cheese's, and Leaps & Bounds/Discovery Zone.

The one thing that has come out of my birthday so far is a cool digital camera that I'll bring to school tomorrow (I think). If not, here it is anyways ==> Digital Camera

I also got an extra memory stick, carrying case, and battery recharger (AA batteries).

Hmmmm...

List of things an 18 year old can do
1) Porn, porn, and more porn
2) Tobacco
3) Vote...I filled out my voter registration card already too!
4) Sign for the draft...ugghhh
5) I can order crap from TV and stuff w/o having an adult present :P
6) ...ummm, when I turned 17 I could watch R movies at the theater :D
7) If I happen to kill somebody, I will be sent to federal prison!
8) Barely legal...hehe
9) Lottery tickets
...etc. yadda yadda ya

Dear. God.

4th bell today made me want to gouge my eyes out with a rusty nail. Blah blah blah blah blah.

Well, next few weeks leading up to x-mas break. First, I'm gonna bullshit some prose about myself...do I really care enough to write some masterpiece about myself? Rather conceited if I do say so myself. Gotta have 1984 read by next Monday, but I start shaving off parts of the book with my 5th bell study hall and time at home. I'm gonna have to call up my interviewee who I know personally and is head tech supervisor at Felicity. I also got my book from the library so that's all covered. Hope it all turns out well before the break.

Now about the whole religious factor, since many people have been talking about it lately...here's my two cents.

I believe that there is a God, but I don't think the Christian's god is the only one. Buddhism, Hinduism, and all the others out there are fine by me because honestly, nobody can prove if their god exists or not and arguing over it is futile. I'm just not really fanatic about it like others, but I'm down with it yo. I always want to try to live my life good enough to go heaven...if there is such a thing. But that will all come in time. I just don't like going to church just because of how unbelieveably boring it can get. Even though the pastor is a really cool guy and no offense to him...this is to all the pastors and preachers out there, but sermons to me are like the Charlie Brown teacher.

Ok...that's enough jibba jabba from me. I pity the fool!

Just what the doctor ordered, Ryan :)

Good God that's a long post lol

Urge...to kill...rising

[rant]
I swear, from working at Hollywood video for 6 months now I don't think I've ever realized how insanely stupid and ignorant the rest of the world is. I have come so close so many times to snapping and showing how brutally honest I can be.

The number one thing that gets me all the time are people returning movies late...especially the tards who keep the movie for more than a month and has to pay twice as much as if they had bought it. To be honest, I could give a flying fuck how late somebody returns a movie, if it's late then it's late and they should pay the fee...whether it be 4 bucks if it's one day late or whether it's 40 bucks for being 50 days late. See, when people sign up at our store (keyword being "sign") they sign a "contract" for the membership at OUR store willing to abide by OUR rules and then when somebody returns a movie late, they think it's OUR fault because of their lack of effort to get off their ass and return the movie on time. People think that just because they they have to pay 40 bucks for one movie that we should "not have to make them pay it". It's called capitalism...making money is the name of the game. It's the same principle as going into a gas station and saying, "Well, I payed 20 bucks for gas...so does that mean I can take a free case of beer home?" Without movies being returned, we make no revenue...so we make that revenue off lamers who keep their movies for longer than their suppose to. I'm pretty sure that's why we say "Your movie is due back _______" every fucking time we give them OUR movies.

I've seen some of the most pathetic people. One lady was so confident of herself because "she was a lawyer and she doesn't make those kinda mistakes"....over a fucking 4 dollar late fee. I think she even threatened to turn it into a legal battle. I do admit that occassionally some of our n00b workers can't even scan in half the movies...back about a month ago when we had a bunch of n00bs, it seemed like every other movie I was checking out to somebody hadn't been checked in from the previous renter. What pisses me off even more is when it shows a movie being anywhere between a day and a month late and hasn't been returned yet and low and behold, I walk out to the shelf and find it, scan it in, and everything is holly jolly.

Another thing are people who don't rewind need to die. Stupid asses.

And for all the blind motherfucks out there, when you walk in to return your movie(s), if you are able to turn your head approximately 15 degrees to the left and about 10 degrees down you will see a little hole labeled as "MOVIE RETURNS". Hell, maybe even your perpheral vision might pick it up. We put it there for a reason, just not eye candy.......... Stop asking me "Where do I put these?" when there's a "MOVIE RETURN" box about three feet away...

Today was a bit scary because some old fart brought back his movies all a day late and I told him it's still 4 bucks for one day. So instead of paying the late fees, in other words stealing (yeah, that's right...see you in hell you fuck) he felt it necessary to whip out a buck knife and started cutting up his video card to our store. I just kinda glanced at the blade and then went back to ordering movie returns while people were just walking around him staring at him thinking "WTF is this tard doing?". Bet he felt like a jackass. He acted like I cared and that maybe I would grovel at his feet begging for him to come back and rent more movies... I just ignored him after that.

Line skippers need to die. Yeah, hi...I can only do 26 and a half things at once here...gimme a break. After all, being that we do EVERYTHING in the store...nobody specializes in one thing so just the four of us have to return movies, answer the phone, check out customers, etc etc.

I've had some sarcasm come out from time to time that has made people a little edgy, but I don't want to get fired...I'd rather quit because getting fired wouldn't look good on a resume. I try to bite my tongue to the best of my ability, but sometimes just want to tell people how much of a dumbass they are to their face. I would go on for days, maybe even write a quick novel, if I cared more.

The only thing that ever truly comes from the workplace that I like is the money and the free movies...even though we get paid jack shit to do what we do. We probably pull in the most revenue and handle the most customers within, like, a 25 mile radius of our store and get paid so much less. O well, like I told myself..."No food joints".

Historical Lunatic

Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
From the fecund loins of Rum and Monkey.

The Good, the Bad, and the...ummm, yeah...that's it...

The Good: TGIF and the Rogue Nation of Daragonia whoops ass.

The Bad: Calc test went, from what I think, pretty bad. I spent pretty much my entire day yesterday doing that homework packet and had zero time left to study the chapter as a whole...I finished by freakin' midnight, so blah. I also have to work from 5-10 tonight...damn.

The...ummm, yeah...: Kevin and I went walking (and singing) in the rain today in the woods behind the school with the precaution of having a note to do so this time so Mr. Burns won't try to rape us or something like he did last time because last time he insisted that Eric and I were going to walk in the woods to smoke some weed and then frisked us for cigs and/or paraphernalia. Wow, I'll never forget that.

I wish Conway would lighten up on things involving computers like videos and looking things up on the Internet. Games I can understand, but videos and looking stuff up? C'mon now...

In study hall today, I talked to Mr. Rose about some books seeing if he had read any of them. He said that 1984 was a really good book, but I kinda figured that because it looked pretty interesting to me, as well. One thing that made me a bit hesitant was what he said about Catch 22 and how it is a very difficult book to read...and that's the last thing I want. From the novels we get to pick for English, he mentioned The Stranger being an excellent novel. I also remember, after watching Apocalypse Now, that it was based off the novel Heart of Darkness which makes it sound more appealing to me because of how Apocalypse Now was a great movie. Or the ones by Tim O'Brien, Going After Cacciato and In the Lake of the Woods both sound interesting. Something war-sy is all I want because, to be honest, I've never read a war novel.

Let's take a look at the upcoming forecast of my week, shall we?

1) Work tonight, Sunday, Wednesday, and Saturday
2) SWG
3) Read some 20 page piece of crap prose _if_ I want to...heh
4) My B-day is Tuesday...18th B-day to be exact w00t!
5) CoD
6) Write some stupid prose about me, myself, and I
7) SWG
8) Get my SEAP book, 2001: A Space Odyssey
9) Read 1984 by the 15th
10) SWG
11) Get in contact with my hopeful intevieweeeeee
12) Wait anxiously for my yay or nay letter from OSU
13) CoD

Peace out

The Shining

Ladies and gentlemen, may I first start off by saying that this is the way that horror is meant to be done. Stanley Kubrick shows his genius in this movie, based off the Stephen King novel. Quite possibly one of the freakiest and scariest movies I've ever seen. This movie in no way compares to any normal horror flick with an unknown killer maiming some random teens, but a man by the name of Jack Terrance is in a "ghostly time warp of madness and murder." If you're asking yourself, why is it called The Shining, it is clearly defined in the movie as "the ability to communicate without speaking".

Jack Nicholson plays Jack Terrance who gets a job as a caretaker at the Overlook Hotel with his family there too, son and wife. All he knows is that a grisly murder had taken place at the hotel years before involving a former caretaker taking an axe to his two daughters and wife. This movie is difficult to be explained, but it takes more to watch than the simple "O, look, he killed someone...ok, onto the next killing..." The movie is, shall we say...an intelligible horror flick? Mind-bending to say the least.

You can obviously tell that it is Stanley Kubrick directed because of all the interesting camera angles with no camera tricks or no "special effects". Some of the most intense moments came from the scenes that, even if you've never seen the movie, were made famous through use throughout history. Redrum being on the wall with the little boy saying as if he were possessed, the little boy on the big-wheel riding it through the hallways and then running into the twins (who are dead), thousands of gallons of blood rushing from the elevator, and, of course, Jack breaking through a wooden door with an axe only to utter the infamous words of "Heeeeeeeere's Johnny!"

This movie had me freaked from beginning to end, with the original score just like any other Stanley Kubrick movie. This movie is honestly, one of the only movies to really scare the shit out of me (no not literally)...

Overall Review
+Directed by Stanley Kubrick
+It's got the Jack, baby
+Truly unique cinematography, but expected from Kubrick
+Had me freaked from beginning to end
+The soundtrack often heightens the horror, even when it may not be all that horrifying.
+"Heeeeeeeere's Johnny" and "Redrum"...so classic and after all of these years of using them, I see their origin
-Naked grandma *shudders like Bart and Lisa going to see their Aunt Selma and Betty*
-A few unanswered questions
-I expected Jack to go out with a bang, but o well

4.5 out of 5.0

Another jumps on the band wagon? Or does another one bite the dust? :D

It appears that Peter has officially joined the blogging community, but let's see if he can keep up with consistent posting hehe.

On the other hand, I never got around to watching any movies yesterday, but I did manage to level up a whole bunch in SWG. I will soon be the most l33t bounty hunter in the galaxy.

Tomorrow = Calculus Test
Me = Dead...'cept antiderivatives because that shit be tight yo

In Theories, we're gonna get to watch A Beautiful Mind with Russell Crowe...or at least part of it. I wish we could watch more movies in that class because pretty much everything we talk about I could care less about and doesn't currently have any relevance to my way of life. I just do whatever and don't care to stop and think about it all the time. I just enjoy life as it is thrown at me and try to make the most of it, while at the same time not trying to interfere with anyone else's life. I just let them do whatever.

Study hall sucked ass because G wasn't at school coughskippercough ;) Ms. Conway has resorted to assigned seating because of all the fucktards who won't stfu, but Ryan and I are exempt from this rule, thus proving our immunity he and I have because we are in Conwegian AP Engrish. :)

...I also resized the pic for my Eight Crazy Nights review because I forgot that not everyone has über resolution like I do. In other words...it might be tiny to me, but for everyone else it's mecha huge. Thank god for HTML image coding.

Fashizzle?

Freeday recap

Let's see here...today I got up around 9 (pretty early for me on a non-schoolday) however my dad woke me up at 6 thinking I had to go school....sonuva. I played SWG to my heart's content. I found out that OSU has made a decision on my application and "it" is being mailed to me and mail is the only way I'll find out *crosses fingers*. I also did some of that stuff called "homework", but since when does that count?

What a day...

Mayor West said it best...

As Mayor West said it best in the Pawtucket Patriot episode of Family Guy, I think today is going to be a "do-nothing job, sweetcake". Maybe today I'll get around to watching The Shining and/or 2001: A Space Odyssey but that's big maybe because I'll have to be splitting my time up between SWG and homework. Win some, lose some, I guess

Eight Crazy Nights

To start off, I must say that I really liked this movie (excluding the fact that it was only an hour and 16 minutes long). It was pretty f'ing hilarious as well as being pretty darn sad at the same time. It was like any good ol' Sandler movie except this time it was a cartoon...making nearly anything possible.

The movie was loosely based around a Grinch-type theme with Sandler's main character, Davey Stone, being the bad guy. At an early childhood he had lost his parents to a car wreck at 12 and drowned his sorrows in booze and making other people's lives miserable because of how miserable HE was. Bah hum bug.

Sandler also voiced a few other characters, one of them being an old, short, fat man named Whitey Duvall, whose feet differ in size...one being a size 11 adults and the other being a size 9 kids LMAO. Needless to say he hobbled around the entire frickin' movie. His voice was also very high pitched and I'd rather listen to somebody scrape a spork across a chalkboard, but at the same time it was more than humorous with the things The voice sounds exactly like his one skit called "Fatty McGee" or something like that on one of his albums.

Another thing this movie had a lot of was a whole bunch of burp/fart/shit jokes. So if that stuff doesn't bug you, then you'll be good to go when watching this movie otherwise, don't waste your time. It also broke into songs a whole bunch, many of them being very amusing. Especially the "Technical Foul" song, which I think everybody now has stuck in their head because Eric, Kevin, and I constantly sing it because of how funny it was. I don't think I laughed harder when Whitey randomly broke into the Robot Dance with "Domo Oragato" playing in the background...my god that was HYSTERICAL.

If there's one thing that truly came from this movie is how they treat the shopping mall like a church. It was kinda funny because it's the truth...nowadays Christmas is nothing, but shopping shopping shopping. O well, isn't that'll ever change.

This movie also kinda reminded me of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation...one of the funniest movies.

Overall Review
+An Adam Sandler movie...
+Good animation
+Good moral to the story
+Great/Entertaining songs
+Nice holiday movie
-Not exactly a "family" movie
-Too short
-A bit too much with the poop jokes

Movie Reviews too

As many of you may have noticed, I have ratings of every movie I watch in the AIM subprofile. Now, I'll bring those ratings to the blog and write a review on it, as well. Figured it would be appropriate considering I'm really big on movies and stuff.

Update Status: Complete... well sorta

I think I did pretty good on my blog template for workin' on it for about a half hour. Just need some good colors to go with my black background...colors that don't hurt the eyes or colors that clash.

As for today... just the same ol' crap we do in Engrish and Calculus. In 4th, we talked about our status on the SEAP and I think I'm doing fine. Ms. Conway suggested I read 2001: A Space Odyssey so I stopped by the library and rented the movie and then had to have them ship the actual novel from Goshen to Amelia...oye what a hassle. I still need to find some person to interview for the ever-so pointless SEAP. Maybe I'll ask Ms. Fennell *drool* or at least ask Conway if that'd be ok...yeah, that's it....interview Ms. Fennell :). And for some crazy reason, 5th and 6th bell were cut in half because of some "Prep" rally...hell if I knew what it was. All I cared about was getting the f outta that place as fast as possible. Screw school assemblies... And aside from getting out of school about an hour early, there isn't going to be any school tomorrow because of Senior privileges and getting out of school on half days...HAHA...FUCK YOU UNDERCLASSMEN!!!

When Eric and I left school, I first took him to Pizza the Hutt to check his schedule, then I went to Hollywood and ended up getting The Shining and Eight Crazy Nights...o yeah, Pirates of the Caribbean came out today too...whoopdee doo Bazzle. Anyways, I took him home and watched some fucking hilarious clips from Eight Crazy Nights like the "Techinal Foul" song and some short, old, fat guy doin' the robot...LMAO.

O yes...as for the whole report card thing, I received my first C EVER...IN MY ENTIRE LIFE...but seeing that my parents didn't make a big deal about it...I could really care less either. I'm sure that OSU would be just content with my 4.12 GPA, but I'm not sure about the re-take of the ACT and getting another 24...o well. Grades and test scores won't matter to me anymore once i get the acceptance letter from OSU...I hope :-/

AP Engrish: B
AP Calc: C
Study Hall: Ummm...
Theories: A
Study Hall: Ummmmmmmm... however, if physics was still there... F
Spannish IV: B

...and like I said, I got another 24 on the ACT, which the entire test looked strikingly similar to that of my previous test score...hmph.

Good afternoon, good evening, and good night

It's the most... wonderful time... of the year

I am hoping to get back into the blog community again and my blog's going to be a complete overhaul. I just need to find a damn good blog template instead of this generic blogger-created crapfest of a template that I'm only using temporarily.

Seeing as that now I have so many internet goodies and thingys like my DVD collection, movie ratings, and my own nation for christ's sake, i feel a bit obliagated to start this mofo up again.

So in the near future, expect more posts (who would've thunk it?), brand spanking new template, new tagboard because my old one was raped and pillaged while AFK to my blog (sweet jesus), and also, I don't feel like putting all that handy dandy crap on the side of my "favorites" and what not because it was too much of a hassle.

Love, Peace, and Chicken Grease Motherf@$#%ers
