The day is mine!

I now own the Star Wars trilogy on DVD. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this day for about a year and a half when I first heard "rumors" of it coming out around this time. Boo yah! I also went ahead and got Star Wars Battlefront so I can like, play it online and all that good stuff. 3 classes the first quarter doesn't seem too hard.

Blah blah blah college stuff blah blah blah

So yeah...Dan and I walked about 5 miles to get to Target instead of just taking the bus that we didn't know had a stop about 100 meters or so away from our dorm...DOH! We kinda found that out when coming back taking only about 5 minutes and walking took about 2 hours or so. *note to self* Take the bus both to and from the Lennox center next time.

One small step for man. One giant leap for mankind.

Today I moved into OSU. Finally the last people out of Amelia who actually planned on making something outta my life. Move-in was rather easy. Room is spatious enough for the 4 of us and all our crap. We're cool. We get to live right next to our floor's RA...OH BOY!!! /endsarcasm. She's hot though...i'd hit it.

Didn't do much today other than pick up a few things at Staples and Target...Eric, Dan, and I walked around campus a bit to south and back. Got free hot dogs...we wanted to get a hoard of people running towards the hotdog stand yelling "Hotdog! Hotdog! Hotdog!" like the new nintendo commerical because that'd just be funny...too bad 99% of the people would think we're insane. Tomorrow we get to do more random stuff and then nothing much to do past noon. Tuesday morning I will wake up whenever I can and make it over to Target and get. that. Star Wars trilogy.

Until tomorrow...poop.

Holy christmas Batman, a post

So I've been playing Galaxies day and night for the past, oh *looks at calendar* last 4 months. At one point at the beginning of summer I was going to cancel my account and move on, but I totally changed my mind on that and am going to buy the space expansion *goes and buys uber joystick*, I end up being the most decorated character in all of Galaxies (in essence, I have every single badge attainable at this point...I am to SWG as Audie Murphy is to WWII), and not to mention my character I've had for over a year now has finally become one with the Force and I have finished my Padawan trials about a week ago. I am now a full-fledge wielder of the magnificent lightsaber. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster, but an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. Now it will take me probably about another 3+ months to get my Jedi character where I want him to be at, skill-wise. As the for the other character I was granted with, he's just gonna be a Teräs Käsi Master/Master Swordsman/part medic/novice merchant. I r t3h l00t wh0r3.

A side note that shouldn't really be a side note for how unbelieveably important it is. The Star Wars Trilogy. On DVD. September 21st. It will be mine. Not to mention, The Punisher came out and Clerks has or will be coming out...again.

Finally for all us OSU students, school is under a week away. We start move-in on or around Sunday. The first five weeks should be easy from what my schedule's showing me.

-Computer class 8:30 am M T W F
-Precal 10:30 am M-F
-Spanish 11:30 am M-F
-Some random surveying class I was forced to take the first five weeks 4:30 pm on Mondays...since our first classes start on Wednesday the 22nd, I won't even have that class for another few days...

Yes I did put plenty of thought into my schedule...it goes like this. In high school I was sick and tired of being put in the stupid, most boring and dull-ass classes like English and math first that would make me fall asleep. I solved this by making it so I take a computer class early in the morning (I usually jump on my computer here at home to help wake me up). Then, of course, on Thursdays, precal at 10:30 should be late enough to where I won't need be woken up and I should have enough sleep by then.

I've talked to my roommates in a chat a few days back. One of them being Dan, another named Justin Vayda being a closet-case Star Wars fan (his s/n is DarthVayda2 for christ's sake) even though he said in the chatroom "I'm not that big a fan of Star Wars"...he lies! The last roommate, Jon Emerine, who was hellbent on bringing a spare fridge just for beer. While Eric, Dan and I were trying to talk some sense into this guy about having no beer in our dorm 'till it's legal, he was starting to turn out to be all the kinds of people I hated while in high school. The Dustin Thurman's, the Zach Denton's, the Brad Schneider's...all deserve to die if the only way to have a good time at a party is their inability to even remember it from being so drunk off their ass. After a long and heated conversation, I think we were able to convince him to say fuck it to having beer and/or having multiple people in our dorm to party...well fuck that. The next topic that arrose was having casual sex in our dorm room...he told us to be sure to do it out in the living room. I think we were all fine with it as long as it didn't turn into a daily routine (because apparently this Jon fella is a wannabe pimp wigger).

Oh boy can't wait.

P.S. I bought a micro-cassette recorder for the ability to tape any lectures in class and granting me the ability to grab it from my pocket and say "Note to self: blah blah blah".

OHHHHH MYYYYY GOOOOOD

These past couple days since Publish 10 has been released have been doozies. Yesterday while at the Coronet starport it was a big clusterfuck of a mess there because there were about 10 people running around protesting the new publish while shooting their non-certified Launcher Pistols at each other creating TREMENDOUS lag. Click here to see what I mean

Today, just a few minutes ago the servers came down roughly 4 hours earlier than they always do because of a gross over-spawning of NPCs. About a hundred thousand NPCs (spice fiends) were spawning in a part of Mos Eisely and I was able to capture this screen shot right before the servers went down AND me crashing. Clicky Yeah...all that red is basically a SEA of NPCs. A single NPC is represented by those little triangles that you may see.

All I have to say is...what next?
