Entries for May, 2008
Finals week is coming up. I've spent every night in the library the past couple weeks. Every. Single. Night. So glad Whitman's library is open 24/7.
That should say enough about why I'm not updating.
Update: I ordered a new computer. It's pretty sweet. Can't wait till it gets here.
School is overrated.
*waves hand in front of face*
OMG Xtreme research paper on Moby-Dick.
THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I WANT A KITTY.

I was talking to Sark today, and I realized how much I love my buddies. We were talking about getting together this summer [although briefly, before we go do our stupid summer stuff] and watching basketball, playing video games, crashing at each others houses, eating pizza and buffalo wings and chips and salsa and coke and hitting up all the crappy hole-in-the-wall restaurants we've fished out in our decade-plus of friendship and generally having a monster of a time together.
This is going to be our fourth summer out of high school together. How cool is that? Even though some of us can't make it to every get-together, we still make a concerted effort to hang out and chill whenever we're back in LA.
That makes a guy feel GOOD. I absolutely love these idiots and would do anything for them, and I know they've got my back.
Here's a shoutout to my boys, from grade school to adulthood, keeping it real.
Ken, Brian, Calvin, Derrick, Leo [who calls him Alex anymore?], Sark.
Here's to another decade of STD's [not what you think] and Daglas runs and grown men sleepover parties.
I love you guys.

It's five in the morning, and the dawn is peeking over the horizon. We're good friends now, the morning sun and I. For the past few months, I've been nocturnal. For the past few weeks, I've only gone to sleep when the sun has risen over the top of my third floor dorm window.
Maybe I should be concerned about my sleeping patterns. I'm going to need a diurnal sleep schedule once I start Berkeley in a few weeks.
I'm packing [or trying to] my stuff, and it's annoying because it's hot and I'm sweaty. I have no idea how I'm going to get all this stuff back and forth from Whitman to Home [where ever that may be at a certain time].
I was washing my car today and snapped my driver's side windshield wiper clean off. I can't really drive through the Pacific Northwest without a windshield wiper. It's like driving through Compton with a "I hate black people" sign strapped to your ass bumper, all the while blaring Vanilla Ice from your speakers. It's just not very conducive to your overall health.
I wonder how much it will cost to get a new wiper arm. Probably an arm and a leg. [LOL!]
I freaking love my new computer. That is all.
I need drama in my life. Drama makes for good blog posts. Sitting up until 8 in the morning every night playing [Half-Life 2 / Warcraft 3 / Team Fortress 2 / Crysis / Portal] does not make for good blog posts.
OMG I HEADSHOTED TEH MANZ IN TEH FACES LIEK 100000 TIMES AND IT WUZ FUNNY CUZ HE GOT PISED OF AT ME AND I SED O SNAP U GOT PWND U b00n LOL!1
I'll post when I get teh intranetz. I'm going to have a fun drive back to California [Love! da-na-nananananananana da-na-nananananananana]

I was debating whether or not to post this, but I guess it's been long enough that I can look back on it and kind of laugh about it. Plus, Lissa wanted to hear the story and the story tells better in writing.
This happened on my drive back up to Washington at the end of winter break.
(Probably the most exciting/potentially traumatic thing that's ever happened to me)
Conclusion: I am a resilient human being.

There's really no way to follow up the last post with anything comparatively interesting, so I'm not even going to try. [Here's when I would usually say something funny.]
I'll be living in an apartment in Berkeley while taking an intensive Ancient Greek class over the summer, but [again,here's when I would say something funny] blah blah blah.
[Here's when I would go off on a tangent about some insignificant issue and blow it way out of proportion, using inflammatory language and making wild accusations about a certain demographic or pointing fingers at the cruelty of the fates on why I get shafted at everything in the world.]
Having no material to write about because you're sleeping till 2 in the afternoon and then farting around doing nothing is pretty depressing. Hanging out with friends till the asscrack of dawn and hitting up downtown Los Angeles is awesome, but that's stuff no one wants to read about. And who are we kidding? This is a public-service journal, meant to be entertaining and a poor man's substitute from the better things on the internetz. At least, for those people who actually read it, that is. My mother and myself.
[Here's a picture to distract you from the realization that I've wasted your time.]
HEREZ 2 EVRYWUN I COODNT SEE BEFO I LEF SKOOLZ
