one day left
ok i said i'd be back and i am. happy? sure you are. turns out my mom had the kittens. big relief. big.
so back to before. yeah i was saying how i can't change the files so they'll upload onto the site. yeah. i can't. i mean i've tried many times but i don't know how much stress i can put myself under for a little site that sucks. Ha Ha Ha you didn't really believe that i just said that, did you? of course not, it was just a preview for tomorrow. too bad i won't be around anyone to mess with their minds. oh well i guess i should spend tomorrow doing homework...
yeah, like that's gonna happen.
so it's been an odd spring break. and i am soooo not ready for it to end. but oh well only two months and then hell retreats into it's frosty self until august end. yeah. went to LA. got some shoes. and a ring (with blue fire). checked out the Kodak although we couldn't stay for sunday evening's activities (it was pretty damn crowded and they had more security than you would believe). did get some pictures though. i was hoping i'd be able to put them on the site, but seeing as how my luck is going, i'm just gonna have to bring them to school or something.
yeah let me tell you something, don't take a 14 hour train ride. no matter what alex says, you can never predict that there are going to be a lot of hot guys riding the train (alex's luck prevails again).
that said, let me say that i am thoroughly cringing at the thought of going back to hell. obviously. but at least i'll get to socialize again. at least until i alienate some more people (damn... the pms avenger, i wish i would have thought of that one. whoever did, bravo).
ok new goal: my goal of not caring that i took up in seventh grade has returned. worked pretty well for me then, and i'm hoping it will have the same effect this time.
so...
I've all but given up hope on getting the drama pics up. my dad says that he knows how to fix it, but i'm doubtful.
i'm watching st:tng right now. wil's on it. my kittens just got loose so i gotta go will be back.
i hate my computer
so i scanned the pictures on the computer, but they come out as tif files and i can't change them and i can't upload tif files onto the site. i'm pissed
to all those who have been waiting for the pictures (matt) i'm really really sorry. but i don't know how to change it. i'm trying really hard to figure out a way, but it's just really pissing me off.
hopefully i'll find a way to put them on
sorry again
It's finally over!! and it didn't totally suck!! people remembered their lines and everything. well not everything but pretty damn close. I have so many new pictures that i'm gonna put on the site, but not like until wednesday cause we're going to LA (not los alamos) so my brother can check out USC.
the second time that i can remember that i've gone out of this little state.
ah, the joy in a spring break
I would have been just as cool if we had gone to las cruces.
If anyone actually reads this, and is going on vacation, get me a matchbook from the place that your staying at or something. OK?
i love the weekends. They're the greatest. unless you have a crapload of homework to do.
I have "she's a bitch but i love her" stuck in my head. I downloaded it from Audiogalaxy last week but it was a really fuzzy version so i deleted it. But i really want to find a good version and put it on the site.
i think i'm just going to keep sending you people emails until you come back to the site. Or does that borderline on stalking? oh well i guess i'll find out.
3 rehearsal days and counting. i got a little hope from today's rehearsal, but as i told paul, if need be we can always have andy and matt do an hour long variety show.
I'm gonna try and find some more cool pictures to put on the site. oh yeah and some other stuff.
this is pissing me off. my computer keeps disconnecting from the internet every like 3 minutes. it sucks. but not as much as this week. close, but not quite.
So i'm counting down the days till spring break, and the play, and i feel that by next wednesday i'm gonna want to crawl under a rock and die. More than i do now. yeah.
ok so i haven't had much to talk about lately, but i'm boring anyway so you guys don't really want to hear what i have to say.
except that i listened to Flickerstick's cd something like 12 times this past weekend. just a little useless information there for ya.
ok the more i keep talking the more lame i sound. so i'll leave now while my thoughts are still partially intact.
yeah
so i got a message board from ezboard.com. it's different. and new. and cool. no really, it is. I really need to go chill with some people over the weekend. not this weekend, no, that's already over. maybe next weekend i'll get some guts and drive into santa and have alex pay for a movie or something. yeah cause i'm broke. haha ok so i'm not that funny but i'm too tired to care.
bye all
A weekend without homework is really cool. Especially when my brother's gone and I have the computer all to myself.
I went surfing a while ago and looked at putting a message board on the site, but i don't want to pay $15 a month for it, unless you guys will send a monthly donation...
but i am looking around for something "cool" to put on the site. Apparently it isn't cool enough for some people. Yeah, it is a little boring when i only have a few pages that i don't really update. As i said, i'm working on it.
Yesterday my aunt gave me this kick-ass Sting doll (more like action figure). He talks and all. It's soooo cool, but then again i'm just really weird like that. I think my brother has a digital camera somewhere, cause i don't have film in my camera to take a picture of him to put on the site.
That's what i need to do, put more pictures on the site. Now that i know how to do it. Yeah, i felt really stupid when i got the Flick pictures to work on the site. but if you guys have any pictures that you want me to put on the site (decent pictures, you freaks... j/k), just give them to me, and yes, i will give them back to you.
And if you have any pictures of fire, i would really appreciate it if you could lend them to me.
ok i'm gonna go see if i can find a cool game to play now
so i'm sitting here with nothing else to do except listen to flickerstick and try and make a cd for alex (finally), and try and think of more stuff to put on the site. That and waiting for my dad and the water dude to put the new pump in so we can have water back in the house (it's been off since like 2 pm yesterday). I never realized how great having running water in a house is. but then again at least we're putting a new pump in now instead of letting it break sometime soon down the road. then we'd really be screwed.
anyhow, three day weekend, and i don't have a damn thing to do. -Good Thing- my brother's in burque, so i have a few hours of peace and quiet, thank God.
well, i'm going to try and find some site to keep me occupied, or maybe i'll just play pocket tanks for another 2 hours.
so the wav files didn't work so perfectly as i thought they did.
turns out they only played two seconds of the song.
so i've reverted back to using two crappy recordings of lift and smile that i got off some chick's site.
that's right, i said chick.
i'm mildly pissed, but i'm gonna see if i can fix the wav files so it plays more than just two seconds.
k gotta study for geo now
You know, one day i just might lose it.
I've been, for the past 3 hours, trying to put music on the site.
trying being the operative word.
So I got both beautiful and coke into wave files, and they work perfectly. Then I get into pagebuilder, and it all gets screwed. I uploaded the songs, but the thing is, they never stop uploading. never. it just always says "please wait patiently while uploading". well, i'm past patient. i went to the site, and it sputters like two seconds worth of the songs, and i again am made too look like a complete idiot. well, if i can't get this to work then i guess i am. damn. i'm gonna stop for now. maybe tomorrow i'll try again. aaaaahhhh!!!!!!!!
then again, i should probably study for chem and geometry. yeah, I probably should. Oh yeah, don't email me saying something like "hey, you say that i should be able to hear music, but i can't. It doesn't work. there's no music. I didn't hear anything."
No crap I said email me to tell me that it does work, remember?
my head still hurts from this morning.
One good thing - I got the original Coke. and i'm happy. it sounds right.
you know, studying for an exam is a really helpful thing.
too bad i didn't do that yesterday.
anyway, I'm a little out of ideas for the site. yeah. maybe i'll do something productive, like... oh hell i don't know. I'm so ready for school to end that i'm about to ...
my mind hurts.
aaahhh at least i get out of stations and get to actually enjoy the play for once as an audience member. well, almost an audience member.
aaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! That's what's running in my head right now. I am sooo avoiding studying for exams... I know I have to, it's just that studying bites and I really want to stay on the net. oh yeah, my brothers kicking me off the net too. damn.
Ok I know that I haven't written much in the last two weeks, and for all of you that actually read my email and came to the site expecting to see an exciting and much-updated blog, sorry. Just couldn't do it this week. I'll get back on tomorrow, I'm almost certain. Maybe then I'll have something more to say.
Ok, one thing that I do have to say: you guys rock. From the people whose poems I read, you rock. I love reading people's poems when they actually gave a damn about what they were writing about. And for all of you whose poem books I didn't get to read: please let me read them before you forever hide them away in your closet (as I do).
Ok. Enough of that. Oh yeah I think I know how to fix the Flickerstick page on the site... but it'll have to wait till tomorrow.
I am fully aware that you all think this damn blog is crap, but as i have said before, i haven't seen any creativeness from you people lately, so piss off if you don't like it.
oh yeah and to all you people who are cool like that or just don't have anything else to do but check out the site and blog, and DON'T COMPLAIN because you're thoughtful like that, thank you. the above ranting was not meant for you.
and i know that i just pissed off a few people, but honestly if you think this is all crap, why are you still here reading this?
Exactly.
so as i was saying before my mind interrupted me, this past week has been hell. and the sad part is that it isn't over. nope. not until summer will this be over. I would say spring break, but knowing my luck (and everyone else's that goes to st mike's) all the teachers are going to give us a crapload of work for the break.
so i got the religion project done, but not a lot of my homework. I am seriously afraid of failing my exams cause i've been sleeping (mentally) a lot in class, and i know that it's just going to get harder.
damn, one of my rules is not to complain, isn't it?...
oh well, not like anyone is reading this anyway. so i'm off to write like 13 poems. well, i'm in a bad enough mood so that i'll actually be able to write.
due to my mood, i think i should write my 7 things:
1. poems
2. good friends who can make me smile no matter what
3. music
4. the knowledge that tomorrow will be better
5. books
6. scifi
7. good experiences
