For those of you interested, I took some pictures at the Kennedy Space Center today. They are available at:
http://community.webshots.com/user/kajikodomo
I uplodaded in full 2400x1600 (I have a 5.1 megapixel camera) so if you want to see every detail, you can.
I'm off now to the Daytona Speedway to see the Rolex 24. I will be back around midnight in case some of you want to talk to me.

Well, with this message I'm off ot the Super Bowl. I'll miss you all, and will be back at about 2PM on Monday.
UPS called me and asked if I wanted a job. Hopefully this means they'll hire me when I get back. Apparently the typical pay for a week is like $110-$140, which in my book is a lot of money.

No, this isn't going to be another "The world hates me, let me emo it up here" sort of entry.
A Few Quick Things:
A) Gran Turismo 4 is amazing. If you like racing games at all, buy it becuase it's really sweet.
B) See Hotel Rwanda. I saw it yesterday and it is the most powerful movie I've ever seen. It was a great movie, but such a horrible subject. I highly recommend it.
C) First Semester is over. Hooray!
D) Colleges need to tell me whether I've been accepted or not. I don't like this whole "waiting" thing.
E) Why is snow always wasted on weekends?
That is all.

Muse - New Born |
] |
I need to write somewhere and I feel that a public forum such as this is a good place to do so. I know this is going to be bitchy and moany and everything so if you're having a good life, I suggest that you stop reading right now.
So I had a pretty shitty day. It shouldn't have been shitty; I woke up at 8 o'clock and took a marvelous shower. However, I forgot my lunch. That was my premonition that today was going to suck. It also shouldn't have sucked because I had had Muse's "Hysteria" blasting as I rolled in to school. It was the song that they played first at the concert on Monday (my first ever, by the way.) Awesome bass and guitar and drums and lyrics and everything and I felt free because I had the windows rolled down since my car heater smelled awful. My day went downhill from here.
I should mention that Martha and I decided (for what seems like the millionth time) to stop dating last night. I felt unphased by this as I went to sleep last night, but this is what made my day awful, I think.
So after parking my car and strolling into school in that real casual laidback way that I do somehow, I eventually ran in to Martha, and, to my shock, she acutally talked to me. This is surprisng, because usually when there's a conflict such as last night's, it's rather awkward. This signalled that we were actually done this time; there was no going back, no fixing, nothing. This is how it was going to be. Fine, I thought, I can deal.
We (KKline, JenDOOOOOOOOOOO, Martha, George, among others) took our JNHS photo today, which was rather exciting. It meant standing on a stage and smiling for three photos. I'll look like the stoner I always look like, so that's exciting, I guess.
So then I headed back to English to talk about Ibsen's "An Enemy of the People," which I had left in my locker on Tuesday. (I didn't come to school yesterday.) So I had no idea what was going on, and continually caught grief from Jeremy and Krystle about constantly missing school and being a slacker. Which, in all honesty, isn't going to make me change my ways; it's just going to piss me off. I really wish they didn't do that, because it makes me feel awful and it's like "Ok, I get it, I"m an awful person, you don't have to rub it in my face any more."
Gov was similar to English, except this time I got a window to stare out of, which was nice. The sky was really clear, even though my view was mostly obstructed by the blinds. I don't think I said anything all class, save the time that I volunteered to read since nobody else would. Even then I was disinterested and far away. I wished school was over, but it wasn't. I still had two more class periods to survive.
So after Gov, I went to Doctor Walker's room and printed out some Geosystems stuff. Which I promptly took to Jeremy and Ross to make sure I printed out the right thing. Which promptly lead to Meghan Knoll yelling at me. That pushed me over, I had to look away and say "I was sick yesterday" in the saddest voice I think I've ever had. To save myself embarassment, I quickly aboutfaced and walked out of the cafeteria. Without getting my OCL pass. Dammit.
I walked quickly to the electronics lab, where almost nobody (save Matthew Berkhan and Makoto) hangs out during lunch. In the past two years, I haven't been that close to crying. I felt like if anyone said anything even remotely negative or asked something of me, I would just break down. I logged on to the computer and started my University of Orgeon application, so I guess that was somewhat productive. Then I went over to my workstation and sat with my head to the table for the rest (ten minutes) of the lunch block. David Bao came over at the beginning of class and asked me if I was okay. Shit, I could feel the tears coming. I looked up quickly and said "Yeah, I'm fine." He said "Just tired?" "Yeah," I lied quickly. After that I messed around with sine waves and their wonderful properties to try and figure out how exactly I'm going to accomplish my project.
Japanese was the highlight of the day; we did katakana, which are definitely my favorite. I missed Emily, since we usually have fun conversations, but Nathalie came over and visited Krystle, so that spiced life up a bit. Other than that, Japanese was a blur, which is a good thing, since there weren't awful things that happened.
Afterschool, Jeremy and I tried to hit up Best Buy for Spongebob Squarepants, but to no avail. It's a bad sign when your employees tell you to visit a competing chain because they can't find the CD that they have in stock (twentythree of them) but can't find. Then we hit up Gamestop, which hasn't changed since Tuesday, when we last went. The nice thing was that I was parked next to an EVO VIII, and I stared at it and wished it were mine. Then I came home and wasted some time on the internet and listening to music.
I talked to Martha, and she wants to be friends, but I can't do that right now. I can't give up something like this in a blink of an eye. I know, it's been on and off for the past couple months, but it's hard when you know it's finally over. She wants to "go back to before the relationship started and let it go from there" with the hope that maybe it'll work itself out in time. It won't. You can't go back. You have to go forward. I can't go back out with her. I don't even know if I like her like that anymore.
Oh well, at least it didn't seem like it ruined her day. Maybe I was just the one with the shitty day.
December 14th, you will be my savior. Thank you Polyphony Digital, because this game is coming out right when I need it most.
Until then, I have college essays to write and other things to worry about. And other games that I need to play.
This is the day I never wanted to have, but it came anyway. I think that tonight is going to be horrendous, with all the work I have to do, but hopefully it will be better tomorrow. The sun comes up on another day, and I'll be fine, at least that's what they tell you. Until then, I'll curl up in my blankets and think happy thoughts.
I'm feeling like a float, in a Macy's day parade.

I give up. I'm too fucking tired and too apathetic to give a shit about any of this. I'm so sick of school. This is bad because it's been about a month since school started. I don't care about anything, and it's not going to get better.
Whatever.
Why the fuck won't it just go away?

Love is the greatest thing our heart can know. But the hole that it leaves in its absence can make you feel... so... low...
Putting all the vegetables away that you bought at the grocery store today... and it goes fast... you think of the past...
Suddenly, Everything has Changed.

create your own visited states map
or write about it on the open travel guide
Megan had that on her livejournal and I thought it was cool. You can kind of pick out the cross country trip that we took this past summer using this. (Go west to WV and then into KY, then straight west until halfway through CO, then go south to NM, west to CA, then east to NV, then follow the line from UT up to WI and then down around the Great Lakes and back again.)
Life is swell. I don't really want to go back to school tomorrow, but it's going to happen sometime.

Walhalla - Gouryella |
] |
Well. I haven't written anything in here for a long time. And since I somehow pulled off no homework tonight (how the hell did that happen?) I have some free time to do stuff. So maybe I can summarize the last two months into one journal entry. So.
( Two and a half months. )
I think that's all for right now. I might not use this again for a while, but I'm not sure. I might surprise.

seeing as this is all the rage with kids these days, you can take my survey.
martha's gone to australia and she will be back sometime on the 17th. until then i am marthaless. when she gets back we will have been going out for almost 10 months, which is pretty crazy.
also worthy of note is whfs is giving away tickets (pit tickets no less) to see radiohead in concert. i must win these tickets.
my days are pretty boring, or maybe i'm just to lazy to write anything right now.
i'm off to sleep.

Radiohead - A Reminder |
] |
If I get old
I will not give in
But if I do
Remind me of this
Remind me that
Once I was free
Once I was cool
Once I was me
And if I sat down
And crossed my arms
Hold me until
This song
Knock me out
Smash out my brains
If I take a chair
Start to talk shit
If I get old
Remind me of this
That night we kissed
And I really meant it
Whatever happens
If we're still speaking
Pick up the phone
Play me this song
^good song. you should listen to it if you get the chance.
yesterday we rowed at the occoquan classic. that was good times, our boat got 3rd place. then i went home with martha and hung out with her until 10ish. fog on the windows is the best thing ever :-D and i'm in a bouncy mood and probably will be for a while. now i retreat to my bed, because it is warm and comfortable.
