We drive on a parkway, and park on a driveway... English can be stupid sometimes. We should all speak Italian, that way those damned italian bastards can't get all the girls with their sensual accents! | | Thursday, April 20th, 2006 | | 1:56 pm |
Just finished watching the anime "Excel Saga". It's insane, sometimes hilarious, sometimes nostalgic, and very good in general. Anyone who likes anime should watch it, but makes sure you give it a chance by watching past the first few episodes. Rocky start, but it gets rilly rilly gud. | | Monday, April 3rd, 2006 | | 6:08 am |
PORQUE!?!? I'm sure that's what everyone wants to know. I want to know in particular, though. | | Monday, March 27th, 2006 | | 4:39 pm |
"Stuff is stuff and that's how it be." Words to live by. By a guy who's a-live. ---------------------------------------- - On a less cryptic note, I'm finishing up my final Freshman semester, so starting May 4th, after my final final, I'm a Sophmore. Yay. Somewhere a streamer was thrown, and a dozen pieces of confetti fell to the floor. Also, I think my laptop situation is finally resolved. I just need to send back the crappy one (they sent me a replacement after 8 months of back-and-fourth with the broken one). I dunno if I'll be staying at my current place next semester or not. It's a nice little single place, but it's hella expensive. The place is basically an efficiency, and the intarweb connection there is crappy. Also, a lot of really cool people I met this year are leaving the place, most of them because of the prices. I'm just waiting on my dad's decision if he wants to pay for another stay there or not. I've got a wealth of cool ideas, but I find it hard to execute them (I'm starting to sound like a real computer programmer). I have a lot of flash-movie ideas, but I don't have the drive or the time to learn flash well enough. I want to learn Japanese and German, but I keep putting it off. I also am unsure about taking Japanese next semester. I want to, but I fear that I might not be able to handle the workload of Japanese (a hard language), and the workload of a computer engineer. Eh whatever, this isn't a place to rant and rave. return (0); | | Sunday, February 12th, 2006 | | 5:34 pm |
Today is the twelf.
Well, today was gonna be a normal, boring, eventless day, but then I remembered it was "Valentines Day". I'm relieved that I don't have to witness the "event" taking place like I had to back in high school. And then I'd give gifts in vain, when I could have saved my money for something cool. Instead, I can just stay in my dorm and catch up on homework that I was too lazy to do during the week. How's THAT for romantic? I'll be makin' sweet love to Planck's constant (6.626 x 10^-34)... all day long. And I might even have a threesome with the velocity of light (2.998 x 10^8). Awww yeah. | | Thursday, January 19th, 2006 | | 8:27 pm |
Alright, I'm going to keep this short and sweet. I'm not being paid by the hour to write this, so let's just finish this and go home. - New classes! This semester I'm taking Programming in C (easy mode), Leagal issues in Computing (medium mode), Chemistry I (hard mode), and American History (??? mode). I'm going to like all my classes except for Chem, because there's lots of HW for it. - WoW Addiction! World of Warcraft is as addictive or moreso than crack cocaine. I'm truly experiencing "withdrawl" effects. If I can stay off of it until the 2nd of Feb, it'll be gone for good (subscription expires). I cancelled it in a moment of clarity, luckily for me. - Sick again! Yeah, I'm deathly ill again. People who went to MAST with me know how often I was absent or left early, and it's not too different up here. - Still sober! Still haven't developed a desire to drink yet. Being wasted doesn't appeal to me. - Bad luck streak seems unbreakable! I've had a 15-year run of bad luck with females. I mean "What are the chances of that!?" bad luck, and I've had 4 more cases happen since I started at UF back in the fall. My last girlfriend was in Kindergarten, and to top it off, there was another girl trying to break us up (true story!!). I had it all back then, but it all went wrong somewhere... - Website nearing completion! http://deo.beplaced.com . Check it. It's almost done. | | Sunday, December 4th, 2005 | | 4:41 am |
I really should remember that the best way to get good grades is to do work before playing video games. And to not get sidetracked. Like I am right now, at this very second of the typing of this paragraph. World of Warcraft is highly addictive. As a great man once put it: "I just can't stop! It's like potato chips and masturbation!" - Michael McDonald; MAD TV | | Wednesday, October 26th, 2005 | | 4:58 am |
Off.
Something happened at around 4:30 AM today. I suddenly don't care about relationships. I still like girls and all, it's nothing like that, but I just don't care to get myself a girlfriend anymore. After 4 years of being the nice guy, I'm finally free from having to care (at least temporarily). It's a good feeling, too. It's as if a switch was just suddenly turned off. In other news, my laptop RMA box came today, so I can finally send that mofo in to get repaired. For those who don't know, I got the original RMA box stolen by this dude named Jose Ortega. He accepted the package for me, signed his name, and kept the package, probably thinking there was a goodie inside. Unfortunately for him, it was just foam and some papers. I'm sure he felt smart (note: this happened around a month ago). The coolest thing is that as soon as my laptop is sent off, I'll be filing a police report on his ass, and telling the RA and the owner of Windsor Hall (where I live) that he dun did the thing he dun done. Revenge is a plate best served in large amounts. I was planning on heading to the 305 this weekend, but the hurricane knocked out the power to the entire county, and there's a good chance it won't be back up by the time I get there. I guess I'll get me a refund and go some other week. Current Mood: Calc rules me.Current Music: Bus Stop - Kick the Can | | Friday, October 21st, 2005 | | 4:18 am |
Crash and
Haven't updated in a while, oh well. Hurricane's comming to Florida, which is gonna suck for someone. I hope my family'll be alright down there, I'm kinda worried even though I shouldn't. That Hurricane Katrina business just keeps replaying in my head, and I don't want Miami to take New Orleans' place. Well on to stuff happening to me. I'm gettin kilt in calculus, but I'll be ok because I'm starting to put more time into it. I just got finished watching the movie Crash with a few of my friends @ the Reitz (actually it was a few hours ago). Then me and Mike proceeded to talk about how High School + girls = teh sux. It was amazing how parallel our high school carreers were in that department. Well, it's a little refreshing to know I wasn't the only one who went through that. It's college now, so things'll be different. Although I DO remember thinking that to myself between middle and high school as well... I met this amazing girl Victoria yesterday (well, it's actually 2 days ago technically) after the chem exam. I guess I impressed her with my brain or something, because I didn't get the "I'll be nice to you for a few minutes, then I gotta go" vibe. We talked for a little while, then I headed home and facebooked her, and had basically set up a date within 4 hours of meeting her. I usually wait a week or so, then slowly, slowly, SLOWLY work my way to asking the girl in question on an outing. Well, I've had a 0% success rate with that , so I just had to go for it ASAP. Girls of that high quality usually find boyfriends at just the right time to make for an amazing story of how I almost dated her, but then "this" happened. I'm trying to prevent that from happening a 7th time. Yeah, 7. Apparently I'm taking it TOO slow. Jeez, I'm rambling about this now. I really don't wanna come on too strong, because that could cause yet another "friend-who-is-a-girl" situation. I also don't want her to think I'm just looking for a "fling-of-the-week" thing, so I guess I gotta balance it somehow. I spent about an hour and a half sitting in a study session while she helped pplz out in Chineese. I have very little idea of what was going on in there, but I was really just there to get a better feel for what she was like. As a matter of fact, a very attractive girl named Lulu walked in as well, and while she was dazzling, I didn't notice her as much as I might have a week ago. I hope that my going to that session proved beneficial for me (besides learning what 1-10 in Chineese looks like), because if she wasn't there I wouldn't have gone anyway. Man, this would be a lot easier if there was an instruction manual or something. They have recipies on how to bake cookies, so why can't there be one on how to get with beautiful girls? I already wrote the one on how to get middle-aged women, and I wrote a pretty good guide on how to keep your girlfriend happy once you get one (through helping out other pplz so damn much), so if someone wrote the one on how to get college girls (without drunkeness, that's really easy), contact me @ omatic810@gmail.com. I'll totally trade you. So now I'm off to study calc, then ponder on how to put myself in better standing with Victoria, then watch Pinky and the Brain. One of those activites is a lot harder than the other two. If you guess correctly, you get an LJ cookie!

In Miami
I'm finally back in Miami, and the house just seems so much bigger! It's nice to be home, and to see everyone again. My room looks different, and I have a futon now. Kickass. Well, one thing is still the same here. Drivers are still crazy. Current Mood: horny as usual.

Calculus: The Silent Killer
Man, there's a nice, big fat line between college and high school. Basically, if you don't do it, it don't get done. In high school, everything would somehow get done in some way, nothing was ever really really hard (with the exception of Compsci). Now, calculus is killing me. Might be because I've never taken a Cal class in my life, and I jumped right into Cal 1. Ah well, it just means I have to study with my many many hours of free time. Otherwise, I likes the college life. I've noticed I eat much less, which is a good thing. I dunno what it is, but it seems that being out of the K-12 system has reduced my hunger. I eat about 2 meals a day now. and maybe a snack in between, if not some soda to hold me over till the evening. I've also noticed my sleeping schedule is totally insane compared to when I was in high school. For example, I'm writing in my LJ now. At 4 in the morning. I could be cleaning my room right now, or doing laundry (which really does need doing, since I might run out of clothes to scrape together soon, to lazy to look), but I figure I'd update this thingamajig. I'm gonna be going back to the 305 on Thursay, and I gotta pay for the bus ride today. 40 bucks is a pretty penny (it's so much prettier now that I'm in college). I would have liked to buy that new Family Guy movie that's out now (Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story), but I guess I'll have to hold off on buying that for now. Maybe I'll get it when I'm in Miami if someone else will split the bill with me. It's also Bianca's birthday on friday, and I'm supposed to go to Sunset with her and a few other pplz. She's nice and all, but she's also been a source of anguish throughout high school (not her fault I guess). I've gotta stop liking her or it'll continue. Plus, I'm a few hundred miles away now, so yeah, I gotta stop. Oh yeah, I'm still single. I've proceeded to construct a 6' by 4' sign expressing that, and have built an attachment for it to sit on top of my head and shoulders as I walk around campus. If that doesn't work, it's on to plan E - walking around naked. That should totally get their attention.

I got fried by my calc exam yesterday. Damn, this is NOT high school anymore. It won't kill my grade as long as I do well the rest of the year. Mind you, killing my grade translates to going from an A to a B. Oh yeah, if any of you reading this are gamers, go look at what the Nintendo Revolution controller looks like. You might just laugh you ass off. Or, you might just stare at it for a while and wonder if Nintendo is playing with your head.

Finacial Aid troubles
Well, I've been in Gaineville for less than a week now, and I was literally in paradise until today. Everything was going great. I was exploring a new city, meeting new people, seeing old aquantences in a new setting, and I was finally on my own schedule to do so. With everything in walking distance, things were going great. I was even getting a good ammount of physical activity. Not only that, but my laptop was on the verge of being sold so I could purchase a newer and better one (in my opinion). Today, the bliss I was feeling came to a grinding halt. This morning, around 10 o-clock, I was messing around on the UF website, and I figured I'd check to see if I had gotten my financial aid distributed. I was scheduled to get $10,000, and that's what I've been expecting to get for the last 6 months or so. However, today I come to find that my ammount has been cut down to a mere $4000, which isn't even enough to pay for essential fees. Right now I'm in total disarray, and when I first saw it, I was actually trembling thinking about what this huge pay cut could mean. After rushing around campus for about 3 hours and talking with various people (who were very friendly, btw), I was unable to solve this glaring problem. Right now my dad is on it, and I can only hope he can do something. If this remains unresolved, then I'll have a few options, none of which I'd like to explore. I can either drop classes (thereby reducing my fees), get a student loan, get a job, or have my family pay for the extra costs. I especially don't want to go with the last option. I've already gotten a lot from them, and one of the main reasons I've decided to go to UF is because of the "free" education. Had I known this would happen, FIU would have been a much more attractive option. Current Mood: frustrated | | Wednesday, June 15th, 2005 | | 8:56 pm |
3-Month update
Well, it seems I left this thing to rot for 3 months. It seems the last time I posted something, I was bitching about something. Not that that something has changed, but since I've now graduated from high school, I'm gonna actually use this thing. How will I use it? I have no idea. Most people just use it to talk about stuff that happens in their life, so I might do that. Or I might take my friend Danny's approach, and post stuff people might really be excited to read. He's got some funny stuff on that LJ of his. Well anyway, we'll see what happens. |
