This is the most recent picture of me, wearing my dorkiest and most obscure shirt.

Comments and jeers are appreciated.

Anyway, I'll probably be going to bed pretty soon and working for my mom tomorrow.

Workin` for the WHOAman night and day. - Mood:Good
Thursday March 26 200910:39:24 PM |
My friend and I did 3 hours of yardwork for my mom today. We'll do about the same amount tomorrow. It wasn't too bad. Clipping plants, raking leaves, typical work. There's plenty more where that came from.

And my grades haven't returned yet, but that is also to be expected. They aren't officially released until Friday at 8 pm. I guess that's when they are due. I still have one incomplete from fall quarter that I need to take care of. It is getting annoying because I graduate in June and the teacher still hasn't given me my grade. I've done all the homework assignments and taken the final.

Oh well. He's the chair of sociology, so I guess he's been really busy. Any advice on what to do about that?

My friend is over. - Mood:Good
Tuesday March 24 200910:08:16 PM |
And he's currently spamming you guys up a little bit.

Tonight I want to do something fun and exciting. Maybe bowling or laser tag. I'm such a kid when it comes to what I do for fun, or at least I used to be. I like to go out and do things.

One of my other best friends is in Cambodia currently and returns in early June. I can't wait to see him. I've known him for nine years now!

Tuesday March 24 200911:56:19 AM |
I got up before 8 again today! I should celebrate. There is no required text for Grad Stats III, but the teacher emailed us and "suggested" a few books we should pick up. He said they were optional but who knows? I might as well pick them all up just in case. I want to have a great semester.

And I want to do a YT so cal meetup, but that isn't too likely. I liked YT San Diego in August 2004. That was as fun as hell.

I had a hardboiled egg for breakfast today, and I didn't eat the yolk. I'm not really a fan of egg yolks.

Three cheers for science. - Mood:Good
Tuesday March 24 20092:52:59 AM |
You supply the cheers.

The Academy of Sciences was fun, but not as exciting as I was expecting. The best exhibit was the aquarium where you can look from above or below water, which was one of the old ones. The new rainforest exhibit was awesome but had a long line, and the new planetarium was cool and well designed.

Overall, I give it a B+.

It needs more cowbell though.

I got a turkey sandwich at their cafeteria. It was decent, yet expensive. $7.50 for just a sandwich.

I woke up beofre 8 with no alarm! - Mood:Good
Monday March 23 200911:10:12 AM |
I'm surprised. And glad. This means getting up for my 9:30 class that is a 30-40 minute walk from my apartment in Spring Quarter won't be much of a challenge. I feel fully energized too, but not over-energized or anything like that.

What should I do for the two hours I have to wait for everyone else to get up and ready? Should I mess around on here? I think I might.

I want a decent breakfast.
What are tricks to keep oneself from sleeping in?

Monday March 23 200912:42:25 AM |
I'm going to the Academy of Sciences museum tomorrow. The new one that just opened, I think. I'm pretty excited. I like science museums. As a kid, I loved the Exploratorium because it was really interactive and you could see science at work.

I had pizza and heard live music tonight. I even played the drums a little. It was a simple drum that my mom's friend let me borrow so I could help out with the songs. My brother and I split a BBQ chicken pizza, and there's still one piece left. I think it'll go to waste, but I hope not. *burp*

Is YT your main blog? - Mood:Good
Sunday March 22 20092:06:12 PM |
I have something like three or four or five blogs, if you count my LJ.

I consider YT my main one because I update it at least once a day. Of course, it's not a blog in the sense that you get your own .blogspot URL, but it is one in the sense that you write things, and people respond.

Today I woke up an hour ago and still haven't had breakfast. I probably should eat some breakfast before much longer.

Walkin` in the rain. - Mood:Good
Sunday March 22 20094:28:11 AM |
I walked in the rain. I was going to go on one of my famous two hour saunters, but it was too wet so I just walked for about half an hour or so. I listened to Radiohead's The Bends and enjoyed it. I got through 9 tracks of the 12 on the CD.

This journal sounds robotic right now. It needs some more flow and better sentence structure. I had breakfast for a late snack at Denny's tonight with my brother and dad. My brother got dinner and my dad got dessert.

Max is only staying here until Tuesday, when he leaves to look at grad schools. I wish he'd stay for the entire spring break, but I know his education is very important, and he IS the kid genius, imo.

One page of heaven. - Mood:Good
Saturday March 21 20091:09:00 PM |
I got my resume down to one page yesterday. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I was able to have all 3 of my jobs, my two colleges, my extracurriculars, and my skills.

I just woke up. Rise and shine at 10 seems healthy enough. I went to bed around 2, so this is a good time to get up. I had a dream I woke up before I actually woke up though. Those dreams are always kind of trippy, and they keep me asleep.

I recommend you guys see I Love You, Man, unless you're not into seeing movies in theaters, then rent it when it's on DVD. It's a great movie with a lot of funny lines, but its heart is also in the right place.

I'm pretty much packed and ready to go. In two hours my brother is driving me in my car to the airport. I trust him enough with old... sh*t, I never named my car. Old old. We're driving through to get me some dinner and then it's off to the airport.

I had to reschedule my return flight to make it back in time for YT fantasy baseball. I want to be there for the live draft. After 5 failed seasons (The best being 3rd or 4th place) this is my year to win. I need to get out of my Giants Fan Bubble and realize my team sucks ass again.

I'm flying home tonight. Tapping my ruby (silver?) shoes three times and arriving in San Jose around 9:30. Then I might see I Love You, Man that night. Sounds like a good plan to me.

I've been studying for my last final, and boy, are there a lot of terms for us to remember. I hope they aren't all included on the final. It would be impossible to remember all of these terms!

And what are you doing today?

Thursday March 19 20094:58:36 PM |
I have several people spying on my YouThink account. Two of my friends, and one of their dads. I kind of enjoy my celebrity status. I have two friends with semi-active YouThink accounts (and a third that closed his) that always reply to my journals.

It's kind of nice to have an audience beyond the usual hecklers. I'm the library, studying for my 4PM exam. It's two hours, then at 6 I guess I start studying for my Friday exam. Rumor has it that one is really easy.

1 down, 2 to go. - Mood:Good
Thursday March 19 20091:22:49 PM |
Well, I've finished 1 of my 3 finals. I did okay on it, I think, and that's what matters. Doing okay on my finals. I'm a bit worried about a couple of the questions, but I'm sure I passed it. What was weird was there were only 10 questions on the final yet 14 on the midterm. I assumed it would have more questions. But each question was harder this time around. There weren't so many super-easy ones.

I have another final at 4, so I have a little more studying to do. Then the third one is Friday at 2, and then I take the 8:15 flight back home and SPRING BREAK.

No exciting plans that make me want to scream spring break out loud though.

Epic ring, epic shoulders. - Mood:Good
Wednesday March 18 200911:59:25 PM |
I got two epic drops in Naxx tongiht. I did a PUG (pick up group) instead of going with my guild because not enough people in the guild were on to do Naxx.

Oh well. We're trying to grow as a guild. Hopefully they can recruit more members. We have an 18+ policy, which I think for the most part weeds out the problem children of gaming.

Besides that, I have studied some for my 8 AM final. That's right, in 11 hours I'll be seated in a classroom, with a pen, and fortunately my books and notes since it is open book open note.

I miss single detached family units. - Mood:Good
Tuesday March 17 20099:57:24 PM |
I like living alone (Well with a roommate, but without parents and off campus) but I don't like the apartment atmosphere. The complex is quiet, which is nice, but there's no real sense of community or anything. I get along fine with the guys in the next room of course, but I don't even know anyone's name outside my apartment.

I mean I know people that live other places, but no one from the Columbia Court place that I'm in.

Oh well. I hope when I get my first "real" place paid for by the salary of my first "real" job it'll be a lot more like a community.

I miss houses though. Having my own washer and dryer. Hopefully I'll find a place that doesn't charge for washing machines. Someday, Angeline...

It`s pinchin` time. - Mood:Good
Tuesday March 17 20095:35:33 PM |
And I'm the one to get pinched. I'm glad that tradition died in elementary school, because I forgot to wear green today. I'm wearing gray and blue. Kind of depressing and unimaginative. Maybe I should get a grass stain on my jeans? Remember those? I do. Torn jeans and grass stains.

Tomorrow I have my first final, and I'm probably going to study with my entire cohort. Definitely better to work together, since we have a lot of material to go through. I'm definitely passing this class, but I probably only will get a B or a B+. B is passing at my school. Anything lower than a B and you shall not pass go.

I'll be on here tonight for sure, and a little more today. No celebrating. I wish St. Patrick's day landed on a weekend.

Why is he always late? - Mood:Good
Monday March 16 20096:46:35 PM |
My doctor is always really late to appointments. He is always running 3 or 4 patients behind. I had to wait about an hour for my appointment which lasted around five minutes. I got refills for all my meds, and I'm seeing him again in two months. Then I see my other doctor up home the month after. Hopefully with all this mess behind me, I'll go back to seeing someone every six months as I had it going for a couple of years.

I don't want to mess around with my medications now that I'm at a good level. I used to have this idea that being medicated was a bad thing and that I needed to cut down as much as possible. But I've noticed with my current roostertail, I'm calm without being lazy. Which is the balance I've been looking for.

I'm seeing Dr. Nick tomorrow, at 12:15. Just kidding. I am seeing a doctor, but thank god it's not Dr. Nick or Dr. Marvin Monroe (he's dead, I believe.) It'd be fun to meet Dr. Hibbert. He seems like a jolly fellow, laughing at the most inappropriate times.

I walked for nearly 2 hours today, and tomorrow I work out at 3 with my brother at the ARC. The anteater recreation... somethingity... I don't know, but it comes free with my student ID.

I`d like a DIET coke, also deep fried. - Mood:Good
Sunday March 15 20097:45:37 PM |
We eat too much junk food in our society. My no burgers policy is working out well. I'm eating a lot more chicken sandwiches than before and I feel healthier. In other news, I have about 300 words left on my big "term paper" that is really more like a homework assignment. I'm a bit nervous because I don't know if I have 300 more words of material to write about.

Today my friend John surprised me by stopping by with Russell. We got me some Del Taco, some Strickland's ice cream, and then we all hung out with my brother. I lost a game of ping pong to my brother Max really badly (21-7.)

I haven't played ping pong in years.

Giving up hope. - Mood:Happy
Saturday March 14 20095:31:50 PM |
I'm about ready to give up hope on this one thing. There was/is this girl out there that I miss greatly, but I don't think I'll ever see her again. Seeing as I was the one that blew her off five years ago, maybe I deserve things the way they are. I'm not going to go over the whole story on this journal, but basically this was a former YTer that none of you have heard of. Those that have heard of her have probably heard of her through me.

If an opportunity presents itself, should I meet her/look for her? I sort of use her as an inspiration to keep myself going when I'm down, which is a rare situation. She was someone who gave me a lot of confidence in myself when I really needed when I was 16/17.

Besides that, today I worked out, but not really. My trainer went through all the exercises with us and told my brother what to write down. It was our last session!

Walkathon. - Mood:Good
Friday March 13 200910:47:35 PM |
I want to compete in a walkathon. Where do I sign me up for one of these things? I'm a good walker and a good talker, and that's what it's all about, right?

Russell should be over in just a few minutes, so I don't have a long time to hang out on YT tonight, so I better make it special, what time I do have.

I bought a book called A General Theory of Crime to study for my final project. It's the theory I'm testing for my final project, so I figured I should read and understand it, and not just blindly test variables.
