  • Winter Break!

    Porkchop Sandwiches!!!!

    Ok I just wanted to make a post with a different intro, anyway. This xanga is one of those things I keep meaning to do, but now I do actually have the time to do it, so yay. Besides, I dropped moolah for the lifetime account, I damn well better use it right? Hrm... where to start.

    Well, as the title says, it's winter break now woohooo! My last "class" was on the 12th, it was just basically arranged conferences with my english teacher to go in and talk about the last essay and current grades and yadda yadda. I'm very confident in my grade in Japanese 101, since I loved that class and I did very well. We had 3 major quizzes throughout the quarter, and I did poorest on the 3rd one at 100% hah. My final grade for english hasn't been posted yet, meh. I either got a high B or a low A. There were a few days when I really didn't feel like going and I missed out on class activites. Also, I kinda stopped caring about what I put in my essays after the 3rd one. One thing though, we had this beefy fucking book called The Worst Hard Time to read, at the end of the quarter there was an in-class essay test on it and I got a 42/50 for reading about 80 pages of the 300+ book. So hah!

    Speaking of skipping class, one of the nights I skipped I found myself Seattle-fagging it up sitting in a Starbucks sipping my mocha and reading a book. Mind you, I'm not ashamed of it or anything, but it was just so stereotypical it was funny. I remembered one of my classmates saying great things about World War Z so I picked it up on a whim. Awesome book, and I highly recommend it to anyone. It's kinda like the War of the Worlds broadcast, but a war of humanity vs zombies. You just have to read it to really get how cool it is. It's from Max Brooks, the same author of the book I'm reading. *points up*

    Let's see what else... ah. One new thing that I am slightly ashamed of is that I'm rehooked on WoW. It all started with a coin toss and I'll leave it at that. I dug the boxes outta the closet and reinstalled. There's so much new fangled crap now but I got settled back in pretty fast. It's like riding a bike. A bike that costs $15 a month. A bike that you just don't wanna get off of. Oh, and it's a blue bike. New UI yippee.

    Also on the subject of WoW, thanks to a certain fish-loving hunter, I'll probably resume that whole Ticky fan-fic thingy I've been working on all half-assed like. It started out more around the whole prospect of both my mage and my warlock, but cmon let's face it, dark and evil is FAR more entertaining.

    AND OMFG VIRUS SCANNER GO AWAY WHEN I'M DOING SOMETHING IMPORTANT GODDAMMIT! Kay it's gone.

    What am I missing... *checks old posts* Ah that. Well, nothing new on the situation with cool-coworker girl. In fact I haven't talked to her in a few weeks. Well, she's home from her classes for a few weeks to work while she's on winter break too so I'll be able to see her here and there. Most of the time though it's a quick wave as I take over when she's getting off though. Meh. Blah, thinking about this bullshit during this time of the year is just asking for a big fucking EMO sticker on my forehead. Excuse me while I go listen to some Fallout Boy. *gags*

    Almost done now, if you've actually been reading this whole thing I commend you as my life is quite boring, just go look at the posts a year ago. Actually, don't... you'll probably get cancer. Holy shit I forgot what else I was going to type. OH YEAH! I treat my xanga too much like a freewrite... but it's fun so fuck it. Anyway, winter quarter starts on the 2nd (hardly any time to recover from hangover, QQ) and I'll be taking Japanese 102 and an online course on animation. Not sure how that's gonna work out, but it's one of the requirements of the Digital Gaming AA program. Yep, video games are a large part of my life and once I accepted that fact, I wanted to dive deeper into that world. Japanese is there because I love the culture (anime/manga lulz) and I'm really interested in learning it. Someday I'm going to take a trip to Tokyo. That's going to freaking rock.

    Why do I always get to nostalgic when I make one of these posts. I wonder. Oh well. Oh, I remembered something I wanted to jot down and remember because it's important. It's kind of the way I view life as a whole. There's people who regret things they've done and people they've met. I think it's kind of silly to do that. When you really think about it, everyone you've ever met and everything you've ever done all contribute to who you are today. Life isn't easy, it's not supposed to be, suck it up and go with the flow. Unless someone is pissing you off, then throw a fucking rock at em.

    Now I'm done... I think. Whatever hah. G'nite!
