I'm addicted to SpEeD.

So. I went to school and learned (ha! school, learning.) that a) no science test today b) English test=easier than enraging Meredith (easy). Well, yeah. School happened, dudes.
I got home and went to go get my [new] orthotics. Yeah! How I have longed to feel the ground churn beneath my feet...you have no idea. I gotta wear em for an hour today, 2 tomorrow, 3 the next, and so on so that my feet become acclimated to the wearing. Then I shall return.

By The Way

Well. Today I....did mostly nothing! Yay!
So I woke up at like 8:30 (sw33t!) and then I went for a walk with Charlie. Yeah. I WENT for a WALK with my DAD. Sue me.
So then we went home and made delicious waffles. MMMMMmmmm....peanut butter. Well, then we worked at cleaning out the garage and stuff. So I played DOOM interspersed with cleaning. I practiced the clarinet and did good (!). We had a Philmont (50+ mile Boy Scout hike) meeting over here from 3-4:45. Then we had pizza and I played the piano. Sweet! I love playing piano. I studied a little more for Science (I did that was well as DOOM) and some for English. By now it is (was?) 8:30, so I played some SC avec l'Arugula. I kicked, dude!
FEAR THE SWARM (well, that's supposed to be an awesome picture of a Hydralisk, but hey...)
Yeah. Listen to By The Way by Red Hot Chili Peppers. And others by them. And, of course, Green Day.

Good luck to all on the Science and English tests!!

You can KILL THE SUN!!

Well, it was Thanksgiving on the 25th. Huzzah! But first, from readers like you, we bring you a special presentation:
Shorewood Tiki Tolo!

All right. On Wednesday I had to stay home and watch Meredith until my parents got back. So I went to Orion's at 6 and hung out with him and his extended family for a sort of -Thanksgiving-before-Thanksgiving party thing. It was good(there was food). So then Orion, Sam, Rosa, and I played Halo 2 with Orion's cousin, Cort, who must not have a life because a) he was really weird and b) he was really good at Halo. Really, really good. So, yeah, at like 9 Sam's mom took us to Whitney's house, where Whitney's parents drove us to the dance. Finally. It was okay, I suppose, if you forgot about the bad music, weird chaperones, and the horrid displays of teenage horniness. Rosa and I left early, like at 11:20 (of course, Charlie was already at the door (?!?!)).

Yeah. On Thanksgiving, we all went to my aunt Jeannine's house (like we always do) and it was awesome. She lives on Lake Washington and...yeah. Luckily, she still has her old NES, so Meredith and I played Super Mario Bros. 3, a game in which, I have just learned, it is possible to actually kill the sun using a turtle shell. It was good :>

So after all that Thanksgiving stuff, I slept in on Friday (8:30!!) and just hung around the whole day. The whole day. It was mostly boring, except for when Charlie and I started fixing the brakes on the car (we didn't finish; it rained).

I woke up today and was gonna play video games, but I had to do....something. Anyways, I finished my The Music Man write-up and later (much later) fixed the car with Charlie. See, before that, Carol, a friend of my parents, came over and we talked a lot (I was also playing Doom). And then this lady came over to talk with them about redesigining our kitchen, so I played Starcraft for like an hour without interruption.

Oh, and I woke up with a terrible, fiery throat this morning. It hurt soooo bad...I've been drinking lost of Chai tea to make it better. Seriously....I've had like 12 cups today. Wowsers.

Craziness...

Wow. I had a really good day today. A REALLY GOOD DAY!

In band, we played Festivo, which I DON'T SUCK AT. In fact, Sara and I kicked some butt with our counting *high-five!*
Then I got to explain deficit to my World Geo class. Homework's not done, though (oops).

Well, in French we had to recite a poem we memorised, "Iles."(roughly, "Islands." Okay, not roughly, but I felt like saying that). So Mme. Hagen was like, "Who wants to go? We need to have boys." And then Kim started everybody chanting, "Davis! Davis! Davis!" Great. So much for my plan of going last. Anyways, I enunciated and threw in some smooth hand motions. Oh Yeah. I think I did quite well, if I do say so myself.

Then it was Math Club. It was boring. We talked about shirts. I went home and did homework, then ate goodness in fish form, then walked Luna, which means I only played Starcraft with David for 4 minutes. You know what? Fuck Starcraft(If you'd excuse my Spanish).

Since I finished The Odyssey tonight (as you all did, undoubtedly) I thought I'd go beat Ocarina of Time again. You know (or not), a kind of joint hero deal. But Charlie is watching TV downstairs, so I had to settle for a DOOM frightfest. Yikes!

I didn't play the piano today. It makes me feel stupid and sad.

But on a lighter note, Tolo and Thanksgiving are just a few days (if not hours) away! Huzzah!!

All right, let's work on the bri--my GOd! DS!

Well, today I woke up and we ate pancakes at 11:30 for breakfast and I finished my homework and I was happy. Zach came over later and we worke don our bridge. However, since today was the much-anticipated(for Zach, anyway) launch date of the Nintendo DS, he brought his over and we played it. All I can say...w0w.

Anyways. So Rosa and I saw National Treasure at seven twenty. It was cool (kind of like the Da Vinci code, if you've read that) and it was only 100 minutes long! or kind of. The Seattle Times said 100; we later found out it was closer 125. So Charlie had to wait in the van for a while, and...yeah. Somewhat funny.

Now I've got to go set the supports for our bridge so it can be ready for 2morrow. Yeah.
Chile...erm....family joke.

...And Strung that Great Bow...

I just finished book 21 of The Odyssey, and boy is it getting good.

Well, today was cool. Err....not band. I got tested on my playing ability for Sleigh Ride. I sucked. Terribly. Man....damn.
We watched The Day After Tomorrow in Social Studies. It was cool, but cheesy.
And French was fun-- it always is (well...). I played tic-tac-toe against Jack and won him *Yay. I get a sticker.*

So now I'll play a little piano, and then read some of Book 22. Then I'm going to bed.
'Night all.

Liberal Fury!

Well,I just finished typing my global warming essay for World Geo. The whole thing is me bitching about how stupid people are who pollute, and how I hate them. Wow. I was on a roll.

So, today I went to see the volleyball game. The one with Seniors vs. Staff. Quite frankly, ZI was rooting for the staff because...polyester. Stupid Seniors. Jeez.

Well, I also practiced my clarinet for a whole half hour. You may not be thinking that that's very good, but it is, because I had to play my terribly high screeching notes the whole time in the hope that I might not be a complete failure in the eyse of Mr. Harshman when he tests me tomorrow. Yeah, right.

I just played DOOM for 5 mintues. I wish I hadn't. I'm going to bed.

I'm Six Feet from the Edge......

Please come now I think I'm falling
I'm holding to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say....
*I don't wanna type it all.*
That there is "One Last Breath" By Creed. Great Stuff. Listen to it.

So...my Odyssey journal is mostly done, once the pages get all dry. I have to attach the artifacts tomorrow morning.
I just stopped practicing Sleigh Ride. Dang that is hard. All those high notes really give me one huge headache.
I didn't play any video games today. I need to get more sleep, though tonight obviously didn't go according to plan (I was supposed to be in bed at 9).
Man, as for yesterday's post....did you guys read it? Wasted with a capital "T?" What the heck was I thinking? Yeesh. I am awsetd.

Sunday, November 14, 2004

*Systems....failing...

...just like....grade after....Science...test....*

Well. I am WASTED. With a Capital "T!" I got DOOM on Saturday, though.
Today Zach came over sowe could work on our bridge. It took us 3 hours. We got half the road bed done. And I have 4.5 pages of my Odyssey journal typed. yay. I am so tired right now it's not een mildly funny. Good night Grandma.

Ha ha ha....! *falls down*

Man, last night I slept over at David's house with Jacob. And we played Halo 2 and I played some Starcraft. Man, it was fun! Ask me if you care. I ain't gonna type a whole lot.
So, I came home and I was really wasted. I couldn't even beat up Charlie. Augh. I took a nap and then worked on some homework. French and English, specifically. Now all I have to do is write my whole journal and build like half of my bridge (crap)! Hooray!

Well, I'm pretty tired, so after "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is over, I'm gonna go to bed early. Ahhh....

Tuesday, November 09, 2004

I walk alone...

Well, happy HALO 2 Day, everybody! Tomorrow I go to David's house to play it much. Today was the crosscountry award meeting. It was quite long (5-8:30), so now I am sacrificing my health to study and finish homework. I'm so tired.....

I . . . . . there is so much wasted time....

Damn it! Life kicked me in the balls!

Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Til then I walk alone


Boulevard of Broken Dreams. Listen. Feel.

Monday, November 08, 2004

Ha ha ha....

Hm. Well, yesterday I saw The Thin Man with Rosa. An ancient movie, to be sure, but pretty funny. And almost certainly better than The Grudge (from what I've heard).
Well. DOOM is on its way, and I suppose Jack is pissed off because I didn't promise to burn him a copy. And there is some secret he is going to tell me (or was). Well, anyway, today I pissed o Mr. Harshman. He was like, "good job to all those crosscountry runners," and I said, "you gotta just keep rubbing it in, huh Mr. Harshman?" He was like, "do you have a problem with me?" Without thinking, I said, "yeah." D'oh! But I talked to him after class, and I think he likes me more than he did before. Weird.

Change

Well, today has amounted to NOTHING. I read 2 books in The Odyssey. And that is all. I did, however, update my blog profile. If you can, check it out! It's got cool stuff. I guess.



Reflecting on my childhood...a lost breath...a dead dream...a wasted kiss...damnation.

Perhaps an explanation.....

*For hose of you who wondered, the title of my last post was the sound of a Terran Marine injecting himself with a stimpack so he can kick butt.*

I couldn't really tell you what happened over the past week, because I honestly don't remember. I've been wasted all week; I'ave been about to fall asleep where I stand. I don't know why I am so tired. But I've started going to bed early. Maybe that will help.

I'm sitting here. It's Saturday, 11:15. None of my homework is done. I played some more Starcraft. I's kind of boring, but I really want to play it. It's getting to the point where even I think it's a little unhealthy. I'm gonna cool down, read some of The Odyssey, maybe draw, play with LEGOs, that sort of thing.

Oh, and I called this genetecist Charlie knows. He's out of town. So I called the UW's genetics department and talked to...a genetic counselor (those people who tell couples if their children will have hereditary diseases). I don't think I got very much information at all. So I will have to use my guile to craft a memo that will score above an F-.

And next week there are only 3 days of school. Hallelujah!
