Gee Wiz! This goes all the way down to february 02!! This is like a documented version of half my high school career. I tried doing spell check on this once it was all together but my computer exploded. Luckily it reformed soon after for me to type this. The earlier updates.... um just take them as I didn't know any better. Anywho. Enjoy this you freaks!

| Thu, January 29, 2004: god this day was so long |
Alright I have an anecdote: So today I'm sitting in 3rd period free with chaz. Leanne Jusb............ juzback............ jissbucki............bacitzs.......... Leanne was sitting there too. Some girl that must be friends with leanne sat next to her. I don't know her name so I'll just call her officer buzzkill. So anyway. Chaz and I are talking about nuclear bombs or something cause we're guys and thats what guys do. And then we got on the topic of radiation and what it does to you. At some point it was something like, "Yeah radiation goes through your body and kills your cells or some shit..." "and, and it gives you super powers!!" "yeah. yeah it goes through and super powers your cells." So then officer buzzkill comes in and is like, "Well actually, radiation goes through your body and mutates your cells. And that can lead to things like skin cancer." ........(extended pause)...... I say, "Man, skin cancer has got to be the WORST super power you can have." And then I threw my hands out at chaz like I was using skin cancer powers on him and shouted, "Skin cancer!!" Chaz and I laugh. Dead silence on the other side of the table... Officer buzzkill did not laugh or even smile. I had to explain to her it was a joke. Having to explain a joke is the worst. In comedy, timing is everything. If it's not used in it's proper time and context, the joke just doesn't work. Not a word was spoken between me and buzzkill for remainder of the free period. So me and chaz were sitting there awkwardly making conversation until we finally get out of there. |
| Wed, January 28, 2004: another day off?! | |||||||||||
| I went to the bus stop for the 2 hours delay. Well aparently there ended
up not being school at all! Aw man, that bread at the bread place in wayne
is sooo good. I'd eat that stuff... and I dooo... and I am.
To the windoooow, to the wall! So for the past few nights I've been playing Risk with my brother and dad. I had a shitty set up to start with. But I managed. So here's the game in short:

| Mon, January 26, 2004: yo where my freezing rain at? |
| I woke up at like 9:30 today. I assume school was cancelled. My mom called the hotline @ like 12 and it was just the regular message. Wasn't there supposed to be some freezing rain or summat? Where it at son? It's so awesome when everything is covered in a layer of ice. It's picture perfect one might say. Aw man. The second semester begins after this week. New classes and all. That means everyone is halfway through the school year. That means seniors are like... more than halfway through the school year! Btw; I made a little page for links. So check it out to see some great sites. If you want your site put there then tell me. |
| Sun, January 25, 2004: "____" |
| Colin Powel, one of the biggest proponents for war on Iraq, publically made doubts about the former Saddam Hussien regime possessing weapons of mass destruction. What does this mean? This means that the entire, original reason for going to war with this country has become null. They haven't found weapons, or programs creating weapons. And they won't. |
| Sat, January 24, 2004: My partay of sorts |
| So we all go to olive garden and fuggin' eaaat. I didn't have breakfast to save room and I skipped out on dinner later on. I have an anecdote from the olive garden. So I finish eating and go to the bathroom. I'm in the only stall and a guy comes up and tries to open. Locked. "Seats taken." I said. In reply, "Heh." So the guy used to urinal instead. He's taking a piss and in the straining of his body to get the urine out he lets loose one fart, two fart, brown part, load dropped.... wait that doesn't rhyme. So after I hear his double whammy of a fart I don't know whether or not to release my laughter upon him. I kept the laughing under wraps in fear of having to awkwardly walk past the poor man outside the saftey of my stall. Afterwards we went back and watched the goonies. Sat around for like... a while. Went to starbucks. Sat around there also. I went home. Starting burning more DVDs. I was just watching CKY. "Why did you call my wife!?!?!?" "I didn't call your wife..." "Why did someone call? Why did someone call my wife?!?!" Man I am a bad master. When I got home I turned on my radio control car. I move it up to buddy. He's sitting there in the corner and I inch it up to him. He's staring at it with dinner plate eyes. Suddenly I gun it. Buddy runs away. Buddy is terrified as I chase him around the house with it. I finally turned it off and put it away. I had to pet and hug him to let him know everything was alright. I posed as if I was also and enemy of the car and that I'd protect him from it. |
| Fri, January 23, 2004: aw man so fun |
| So after school me and chaz arrive at kyle's where nick and kyle are. And we see them with this wooden sled with metal sliders with a rope attached to nicks car. You can pretty much gather what was going on. So nicks driving and chaz is on the sled being dragged down salem way while swinging a golf club around over his head. I got on it too with the golf club in hand; I started hitting mailboxes with the golf club; kyle was angered. Lotsafun! |
| Thu, January 22, 2004: Today's my birthday |
| Apparently, today is also Apple Computer Co.'s birthday. Pretty much the
only computer company of worth that can go against PC companies and Microsoft.
They're 20 years old.
Saturday We're going to the olive garden!! That place has the fucking best food ever. I'd go there just to eat the bread sticks they have. If they opened a resturant that just served those bread sticks, I'd freaking go there. And I'd by mildly pissed... but only because I was hungry. |
| Wed, January 21, 2004: No freaking way!!!!!!! |
| THE CHEAT (or chort) IS A FREAKING GIRL!!!!!! Click here. Hopefully I can get a picture of.....her...... and put it on the site. Then I'll have a poll on if you really think it's a girl or boy. Based on popular vote, I'll hire a doctor to change the cheat into whatever most people think it is. That little thing is the epitome of awesomeness. |
| Tue, January 20, 2004: Metrosexuals are so... so... gay. |
| What the crap is a metorsexual anyway? It's bullshit. Pure bullshit. I'm
partially ashamed for even giving it the honor of mention on my website.
(a great honor indeed). Anyway. What it's supposed to mean is: a guy who
isn't afraid to care about his appearance. I don't throw on any old pair
of clothes in my house, so am I one? Of course not. The term is made up
by some fashion company or deparment store I'm sure. After sitting around
a desk thinking of a great way to divert men's $$$ from cars and electronics,
the idea sprang up. And what better way to have men buy more clothes? Make
it cool to do so! You don't have to be a hardass lumberjack to not buy into
this crap. I don't really care if some guy wants to wear certain expensive
clothes. I just hate these stupid trends.
Chris gave me a hell of a lot of bottle rockets. They come in packs of 12. I have 8 packs. Simple math tells me that thats almost 100 bottle rockets!! Holy fucking crap!! I was reading the paper today. There was this article about an "American Idol" thing that's taking place in Iraq. Except it's called something like "Talents." It's all basically the same concept I guess. The winner gets a prize of $500, the equivalent to about five months wages in Iraq. If I worked 8 hours every day at walgreens I could make that much in 2 weeks... The contest was the idea of some American Gen. guy or something. So is this how you rebuild a country? You take the absolute worst part of our culture and bring it to theirs? Okay, maybe American Idol isn't THAT bad.. I just really, really don't like pop music. Well since we liberated them and gave them the wonders of pop music, I think we deserve some freaking oil. And now that they're our satilite, how about lowering gas prices? I'm gonna go broke on filling up my H-2 all the time at this rate. If only someone would find a less polutant, cheaper and more abundant resource to power everything we use. (including our H-2's). Maybe if we get rid of the '2' in 'H-2'.... (if you didn't know... the H-2 is a Hummer. Previously a military vehical. It's probobly the biggest vehical on the road, save 18 wheelers.) |
| Mon, January 19, 2004: I'd rather be struck repeatedly on the head with a blunt object... |
This is what I did over the long weekend: |
| Friday |
| flew down to florida; sat around at grandparent's house |
| Saturday |
| sat around at grandparent's house |
| Sunday |
| sat around at grandparent's house |
| Monday |
| sat around at grandparent's house; flew back home |
| Thu, January 15, 2004: Yey.. what a great upcoming weekend... |
| I was being sarcastic. |
| Wed, January 14, 2004: Brand new design!! |
| Omigosh! I redesigned the site using frames (not like anyone understands what frames are anyway). So today I'm in free period watching TV. Mr. Poise, I think his name is, comes up to me and chaz and says, "You can only watch CNN, sportscenter or the school channel." He stood there as if he was waiting for me to do a backflip, grab the remote and turn the volume up in rebellion. I said, "Well fine I won't watch anything!" Tears began to roll down my cheeks because I was missing Hamtaro, a delightful show about cute, little talking hampsters. Anyway. I'm tired of high school. Strange how something so insignificant like that made me think this. But I'm tired of people yelling at us just because we're stupid kids. I don't care if I get yelled at for conscientiously doing something wrong. But I'll get yelled at for using a yo-yo or wearing a hat. A hat for god's sake. Will the school go into mass panic and uproar if I have head attire on? Another thing eating me are the students. I really don't mind MOST of the people in our school. There are those select, priveledged few who really get on my nerves. The stupid people. No, not the people in academic support. Not even the mentally retarded people. I'm talking about the people with a general apathy for everything in life that isn't them or about them. That apathy leads them to also be incompetant in mostly everything. They have no talents or skills. You'll never find them specializing in anything except sports or fashion. You'll never see them in an art or music room unless to merely fulfill required credits. They expect everything given to them on a silver platter. They usually start out getting things that way too. These are the people that eveyone thought were cool and popular in middle school. They usually do drugs and have poorly planned drinking parties where everyone gets busted. How hard is it to plan a party without the police finding out? I'm hoping I won't see these people in college. |
| Tue, January 13, 2004: i hate / love? nerds |
| Whoa man!! Dodgeball club was soooo good today. I mean c'mon. No time
has there been a greater game. Man if I missed it I'd be REALLY depressed
about it cause I would've missed the best time in my entire life times 4!!!
If you are stupid, this update isn't for you. A few months ago I bought the computer that I made this update on. For some reason, somebody bought the computer before me, but returned it in about a week. I think I know why. For some reason, every time I went online after a few minutes the computer would restart. So I found this thing that had to do with Remote Access ect... on the computer and I told it to not restart when there was an error. Finally, yesterday I found something on the microsoft website that matched the error messages I've been getting on my computer. Turns out, I bought the computer with a Blaster Worm on it. (basically a computer virus) So I downloaded some shit from microsoft and the problem was cleaned away. Whats the point? Well if the dumbasses who owned the computer before me didn't open some random attachment in their email inbox, then I wouldn't have the problem. But.... I wouldn't have also saved like $200 on the computer. So I win. the end. |
| Mon, January 12, 2004: inject wheat thins into my blooooood! |
| Okay so I got in bed @ like 5 something PM last night. I was pretty freaking tired. Thats like 13 hours spent in bed til around 6 the next morning. I'm going to start getting in bed @ 9 every weeknight no matter what. I just feel like crap ever morning otherwise. |
| Sun, January 11, 2004: magical spell is eei eei poo |
| Okay so todd gave me super monkey ball junior for my game boy as a late christmas present yesterday. So I popped it in just a few seconds ago to play. Let me tell you, the words, "Are you fucking joking me?!" and, "Get outta here!!!" were uttered an unfathonably large amount of times that they almost lost meaning. The game is sooooo frustrating. I want the monkey in the glass ball to get the goal as much as he does, but if he'll just bear with me on it... instead of falling off the edge all the time and unenthusiastically screaming. I mean the monkey gives this cheap, unconvincing, "ah!" as a fall to your death scream. If I fell off a platform suspended miles in the air I would fucking screammmm, "HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! I'M GONNA DIE!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! GOD PLEASE SAVE ME!!!!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!! AHH!!" So anyway, the game is really hard. |
| Fri, January 9, 2004: big freaking fish |
Oh my god. I don't know about you, but I really liked big fish. It touched me... here, here and..... yes..... here. No but seriously, one of my favoritest movies. |
| Thu, January 8, 2004: drinkin' soda pop at 9 o' clock. (that rhymes somehow!!!) (I get easily excited) (dare I be an e-idiot and say w00t?) (.....yes) |
I sent an e-informative e-mail to this
graphic design studio firm jobby concerning senior internship. To say the
least, the e-mail was more formal than this update on my "blaug!".
Three days later... I haven't gotten a response back yet. I know that I
can't expect an imediate response from these people, but waiting for this
is eating away at me like... like... like how a monkey eats away at a banana.....
(rest mouse over images to see text!!!)
So I really hope that I'll get a reply soon about whether or not I can intern there. |
| Wed, January 7, 2004: >insert stupid subject here< |
| Kyle brought in a toastey sandwich maker. Chaz brought in the bread.
Toasteys were made during lunch and they were thoroughly enjoyed by all
who ate them and deviously lusted after by those who didn't. Bringing those
things in has got to be illegal. There has to be some fine print in some
CHS rule book at the bottom of a filing cabinet that explicitly says, "Toastey
sandwich makers are highly unorthodox." After school I'm in the jeep and all the sudden chaz just punches out the floppy window in his side. His hand went right through the window, destroying it. Later I elbowed mine, bringing the same affect. |
| Tue, January 6, 2004: Holy criggity |
| Aw man. So today was dodgeball club... but nobody knew about it really.
So we went to chaz's house instead. the megaphone was broken out for the
first time in a while. I farted into it a few times. And at one point I'm
like, "Oh chaz can you take me home? My mom gets home at like 5pm but
just to be safe can you take me home now?" So I got home and seriously
2 seconds after I got inside I heard the garage open. I got home in the
nick of time. In case you didn't know, I'm grounded and I'm not supposed
to be out hanging with friends. So I win!
Man Sigur Rós is so good for when it comes to just relaxing. No Sigur Rós is not pagaged sugar akin to that of sweet n' low, seeing as packaged sugar would not help you relax. It's actually a really mellow band. The singer apparently is singing giberish. But it really sounds like he's singing something important. I recommend you to listen to the album entitled, "untitled". I just thought. Imagine if a promotional thing for dodgeball club would be a website. www.dodgeball.com or something like that. All it would be is a picture of some guy getting hit by a dodgeball and then it saying, "Come to dodgeball club" Is that not worth buying a domain for? |
| Mon, January 5, 2004: It's an interactive update about updates! |
okay I'm going to make short, fake updates and you have to guess which person's livejournal/website update is sounds the most like. I'll number them and you can post on my guestbook which #'s match who. oh I also made a few hypothetical ones that if the person had a website thats what they would write. ready? 1) It smells like peanut butter in here. omg so I see this guy looking at me after school. it was soooo creepy! i thought he was going to rape me! I hate stalkers. I keep getting this feeling whenever I go into my room that my brother is going to jump out and scare me. 2) today sucked like every other day. this is really pointless. I went to work today and then went home. the end. 3) after babysitting I sat down and watched tv with my dad. it was boring but he let me use the remote! but then my brother came in and took it from me and started watching some stupid show. my dad was asleep by then so there was nothing I could do. my brother's a jackass. 4) hahaha i need to make sure to OH fuck I just remembered that I have sooo many fucking notes to get done and all I've done is sit here and read putting off all my work I need to start showering a little more because I think I making people fucking sick because I smell so bad 5) ugh. I need to stop being such a jackass in school. I always regret is later. I have such a lack of social grace its not even funny. I iggity the gumbo 6) Word word word! Yo word. fucking, battttch. 7) I saw this girl with big boobs walking by. But then I turned around and realized they were small. Pissed! 8) Did you know the pile's only ememy is the hole?

| Sun, January 4, 2004: Oh shiaaat! |
| Okay I didn't feel like doing homework at the moment... so I decided to look at a colander... calender and I found that there are about 120 days until the senior prom. That days is also the last day for seniors pretty much. Because the following monday internship begins. 120 is counting every single day (weekends, days off, spring break, snow days). Lets hope that we get a hell of a lot of snow. 83 days taking off days off and weekends. Cut off 3 more days for midterms (which I will have only physics and math). Shave off like another 3 days for snow days (hopefully more than that). And then we might as well take another 5 days off for the last week of school before internship because those will hardly be like school days at all. Okay so thats like, 72 days of school. Look all I'm saying is that I can see the end of the tunnel. We're halfway through the very last year of high school. I say treat these days like you were going to die a horrible, horrible death on the morning after prom night. Like, your prom date killing you because you date raped him/her. When he/she finds out in the morning the you date raped him/her he/she takes a hot, sharp knife and slowley but firmly inserts it into your heart. You wake up in shock and open your mouth gurgling blood out. Yes, so the moral here is don't let your prom date find out about you date raping him/her. All jests aside, after we take these jokes of midterms, the end of the year is in our graspseses ...........................ses. |
| Sat, January 3, 2004: Yo word. |
Groundage is done on like thursday or summat. You know what I haven't had in a while? Big league chew. Alright so my bro is watching television last night and I'm just kinda sitting there. And this program is on on discover your health channel about this fat man who obviously did not discover his health. What he did discover, however, is that he is morbidly obese. "I, I... I just liked eating too damn much. I'd see food, I wasn't hungry, and.. and I'd just eat all of it." So did this guy sit around and do nothing about his health threatening situation?! Well... for the better part of thirty some years, yes. But after that!! Oh yes! After that he decided to take some initiative. He knew that he had to somehow uneat all of those 400 some pounds he had. So he got in his car. Meticulously working the pedals and steering wheel, he drove his way allll the way to his doctor all by himself. He even dared to lift his enormous body out of the vehicle and walk to inside the building! He met his doctor, "My god! You are extremely overweight you poor pathetic bastard!" his doctor said, "You really need to seek some professional help!" "Yeah... well that's why I came here doc.. doncha remember me? I was the guy that had a heart attack in the waiting room a few years back before my physical." "Ah yes, yes. You were eating the fried chicken while reading the latest issue of Jugs. Yeah I remember you. What can I do for you?" "I'm overweight! I can't see my penis when I stand up for christ sakes!! I have to sit on the floor at movie theaters! I have to buy a new couch every year! I get tired walking from the store to my car! Making love to the wife has become quite a burden! Oh ho ho... and when I sit around the house... god... I sit around the house." "Yes, yes. Let me see. Yes. You are overweight aren't you? Heh heh... someone should staple your stomach closed or something because you really have a problem." And that's exactly what was about to happen. Not before this man had his last meal. So he went to an expensive restaurant that served very large portions. The man said to a waiter after being seated, "What would you recommend for a man that has lost all will to live because of his morbid obesity and has resorted to getting his stomach stapled shut to the size of your fist in order to rapidly lose pounds but gain the respect of peers and coworkers?" "Uh.. er... well I'd recommend you..." "ME?! Are you calling me fat?! How dare you!" The waiter was then cast into the fiery pits of hell. The fat man got his meal and began the festivities. His family watched in horror as he ate plate after plate after plate. "Heh heh! It doesn't matter! Cause I'll be skinny in months!" It was truly a sight to see. At one point the man asked the new waiter, "Hey can you just dump all my food into a trough? You know one of those thing pigs eat out of? And then I can just gorge myself without the need for any silverware." Well sure enough. The fat man got his. Eating plate after plate resulted in his demise. After continuously eating for over an hour the man felt sharp unquestionable pains in his stomach. He could feel his fragile innards tearing apart. Muscles sparingly used ripped to shreds. When his skin broke open white fat cells poured out onto the table and floor of the restaurant. There was mass panic. There was no parallel to the horrific expression on the man's face as he watched bodily fluids flow out of his midsection. He fell to the floor and died in a pool of his own blood. His stomach bursted. |
| Thu, January 2, 2004: "So where's the person whose birthday it is?" "What?..." "Everywhere man! It's the year...." |
| Not having fun isn't that bad. It's knowing that you could be having fun
at the moment. That's the thing that eats away at you. See, Todd told me
online that he's having a box social. Well I'm not allowed to leave on account
of sneaking out at 2 am. If only I could invent some sort of machine that
could take me back in time and I'd tell myself not to go. While I'm at it.
I'd use the machine for other, sexier purposes. I'd call it a time
machine. I'd be flux capacitating in no time, if ya know what I mean.. eh?
eh? eh....? (The flux capacitor is what Doc dreamed up when he hit his head
against a toilet in the Back to the Future movies.)
I went to the library today. I got 7 dvds for $5. They were good movies too. That's a good deal considering what blockbuster has been jiving us with. |

post new years update |
Brief summary of last update. Wait in line at restaurant
for 2 hours. Sit and eat. Leave. Sit and watch tv. Go home.
Update: So for some
reason I decide to call annie's cell phone to wish everyone a happy new
year. I end up asking if I can hang out with them. I wake up my mom and
ask if I can go but she's all, "No." I decided to go anyway.
Just so she wouldn't die of worry if she found out I was gone and call
every one of my friends until she hunted me down, I left annie's cell
phone # on my bed. I was hoping it wouldn't be needed. So it's like 2:00
am. I go through the window in my room and jump off the deck. Buddy hears
the thud and barks. "You stupid hound!" I said to myself. I
waited a minute or so to see if any lights turned on in the house. No?
Okay lez go. I go up through the woods and meet briton, annie, shaz driving
and...... leslie kwon. I don't know exactly how she turned up from the
other side of the country (she came from california). We went to some
party at some house. Kinda weird cause nobody knew the person whose house
we were at. So we're pretty much all sitting there and talking. Well,
leslie wasn't talking. Anywho. Annie was like, "Peter, the phone
is ringing." It was my mom. I called back and she told me to come
home. So shaz took me home and I go inside and she's like, "You shouldn't
have done that; go to bed." 9 hours later its daylight.... I don't
know the end of this story yet. |
Thu, January 1, 2004:
about how great new years eve was |
We had great ideas for new years! Here it goes! Yippee!
So we go and see Dave Attel and Lewis Black, some of the funniest comedians
I've seen. We laugh our assess off with those guys for 2 hours, then go
into the city. Chaz's sister has a place that we can all spend the night
and party down!! YEAH!! The memories created by those joined events will
never be forgotten. A stamp on the otherwise boring events that high school
dishes out to us.
Let me begin again (one piece of advice,
if you don't want to hear complaining, moping and other emo related activities
then I suggest you stop reading now and accept the top part as my new
years eve) ... Ahem. So this is what happened on my last high school's
new year's eve. We go to this pretty new restaurant near Best Buy and
the movie theater. They tell us, "Of it'll only be 40 minutes."
So we wait, and wait, and wait. 40 incredibly boring minutes later, being
optimistic I'm excited that its finally time to eat! Oh... wait... no.
There isn't an open table for the six of us yet... So we wait, and wait,
and wait. Still no open table. I watch in disbelief as families, couples,
friends all get seated before us. They didn't call and reserve seats ahead
of time did they? Oh but we have 6 people. So we're an exception. If only
we could have shaved one person off somehow. It was mentioned that we
should leave and go to wendy's. Fast food. May not be as tastey, but we
would get our food in 30 seconds and I'm sure we wouldn't have to call
ahead to reserve some alleged table set aside just for us. The idea is
dismissed. So we wait, and wait, and wait. It's been like 2 hours by now.
At LAST. A guy comes up and I think found that our little remote mine/rumble
pak was broken or low on juice. While being taken to our table I notice
a completely clean, places set and all ready to go table... of 7 seats.
We're seated to a table of six... with 5 chairs. Nick kneels on the floor
waiting for his chair. I presume, that the last chair was taken from the
empty table of 7 and placed under Nick's rump. Never the less, we were
seated! Through the ordering chaz tries to get some nice fruity drink
containing alcohol. Iris.... (yes that was the waitresses name) Iris asked
for his ID. So I decided to just order one of those fruity drinks... except
virginized. (that means san-alcohol. (w/o alcohol (with out alcohol))).
In retrospect, if it did have alcohol, who'd know what I'd be letting
loose by the nights end. (and I don't mean vomit or farts). By the end
of the meal I ate part of every person's meal. For the price, the food
was good in portions and taste. For the wait... eh lets not go there.
So we get back to kyle's house. Sit there for 2 hours watching new years
eve filler rerun shows. Sit there for 2 hours watching new years eve filler
rerun shows. Sit there for two hours watching new years eve filler rerun
shows. Sit there for 2 hours... finally the ball drops. Nobody is excited.
Two people are asleep. The rest sit there. I pretend to be having a good
time. I take a few pictures of forced smiles so that it won't be remembered
this way. Pretty boring update huh? mmm.. The evening has left me bitter
and my farts smell really bad. |
Mon, December 29, 2003: I have a confession
to make. |
I have an addiction. I have a serious addiction that
I really need to get rid of, because it can damage my physical and mental
well being. My habits have been increasing ever since the school year
began. I had easy access to it working at walgreens. I never told anyone
that I did so much. I never even told anyone I did it at all. I'm up to
one pack a day here people. putting that shit in my mouth. ugh. sure it
may make me look cool. but is gum disease cool? i don't think so. prices
go up every year and it looks like where I'm going, I'll be broke before
school ends. i mean at the rate of consumption I'm going at. one time
i saw one on the ground and considered.. hmm... no. that's too disgusting.
but isn't it disgusting to begin with? you decide. help me my friends!
my gum chewing habits are really getting the best of me! |
Sat, December 27, 2003: This may be the high
point of my website right here. |
I finally got some blank dvd+r discs. That means I can
start copying movies. I got a 25 pack. If each dvd movie is $20 then that's
$500 worth of movies. (25 x 20 = 500). So that's pretty sweet. Basically,
if I rent a movie I like; I can keep it. So far my collection consists
of requiem for a dream and bowling for columbine. Oh and yeah, we also
have a dvd player finally.
So tonight I was at starbucks with the
gang. all I can say is that something snapped in britons head and here
I will show you what happened. rest the mouse over the pictures for a
brief description of the event.

Thu, December 25, 2003: Just too muchery |
Peter: "Hey
Brian, I see a message in my alphabets; it says: Ooooooo.." Brian:
"Peter, those are cheerios." |
Wed, December 24, 2003: watch how I blow a simple
dentist visit into mopefest 2003 (a creative nonfiction story) |
Why are dentists such pricks? First I'm in there on
this reclining seat. As soon as I get comfortable they go and change it
on me. Shoot it up and bend it, twist it around. I'm staring straight
up at this horrid florescent lights, I'm getting dizzy. The other light
shining in my eyes doesn't help. That dim yellow color make my eyes roll
back into my head. Alas, the woman starts jabbing little hooks in my mouth
to scrape the enamel off my teeth. All the while asking me boring questions
in her idle chit chat. I'm somehow supposed to tell her what school I
go to, my gpa, my sat scores, what my interests are, where I am going
to college, what career I want to have after college, where I want to
live and where I'm going to retire... while she has cold metallic instruments
forged by satan himself twisting and jabbing in my mouth. How could someone
whom I've never met before want to know so much about me? Is it to keep
my mind off her ripping up my gums and sucking out the blood with small
plastic tubes? The cleaning ritual continues. She pulls out floss from
her front pocket. Oh she knows I don't floss. She knows everyone doesn't
floss. Only dentists floss, "Do you floss?" She asks. I was
considering just lying to her through my teeth (which were covered in
dry blood). I knew, sitting in the recliner, that she was way more powerful
than me. She could, for instance, press some button on the chair as soon
as she heard my lie and send me careening into the stratosphere. "No.
I don't floss." As if she wasn't expecting it her face sunk. Her
eyes shrank. She turned around. What was my fate. Did I anger her? Was
it a direct insult to enter her domain with sub par teeth? She swiftly
turned around holding a small looped string. Through the loop she put
a device that brings fear into all that see it. Dental floss. She wove
it through the cracks in my teeth, pulling out my soft, tender gums. Blood
flowed out of any spot she deemed fit for her tainted string. Finally
the cleaning ordeal was complete. She wiped her hands on the ripped napkin
on my chest. The napkin was already soaked in a reddish drool. My lips
were dry as a bone. Skin was already peeling off them. I pulled my tongue
into my mouth and attempted swallowing. With the taste in my mouth, I
had the same kind of gag reflex one would if they suddenly came upon the
realization that he/she swallowed a used band-aid. She doesn't care though.
She's raking in cash by dishing out discomfort. $100 or more a head. Do
they teach dentists these methods in dentist school? Before I could ponder
anymore she brought out her X-ray gun. A hunk of plastic with a circle
on the end is jammed in my mouth. You'd think something that was specifically
designed to enter one's mouth would conform to the shape of one's jaw.
She put a heavy lead vest on my chest. Was this to keep me from getting
up and running under its weight? No. It keeps those radioactive X-rays
from entering my body and corrupting my organs. There is nothing to protect
my head though... it's too late now though. She dives behind a barrier
and penetrates my skull with invisible radiation. 24 hours later I will
have forgotten our little visit and my parents will pay the bill. The
X-rays fried my short-term memory. Ah, if only there was such a thing
as XXX-rays, projecting pornographic images into you head. She finished
killing my head and brought out the fluoride. She rattled off many my
choice of flavors, "We have bubblegum, pizza, anchovies, lettuce,
spearmint, cherry, orange, sour apple..." Its like someone asking
you how'd you'd like to die, except in the end it doesn't make a difference
anyway. She puts the fluoride on a foam mouth guard. I wait for what's
supposed to be one minute. Oh she has a phone call. How pleasant! I do
not dare remove the mouth guard from my mouth. I merely sit in discomfort
with the taste of pizza in my mouth. I normally like pizza. This pizza
was not the same. Finally she removes it and oh great, "You can't
eat or drink anything for a half hour so this can work fully." It
was 12:30. I've been there for an hour already without breakfast. Even
if I had eaten breakfast I would have lost it through the ordeal. So it's
time for lunch and I can't eat. I'm in the comfort of my home now, weeping.
Weeping and eating. |
Tue, December 23, 2003: Heh heh... I just farted
again |
Wooo! Last day of school forever! The kick off into
the break begins tonight at kyle's house! So much to look forward to over
break. It'll be great! Man I am soooo fucking stylish. A duplicate of
one, greg diamond's sweater will further my style perhaps. He gave me
a high five through a window by the way. Oh by the way: I don't normally
say this but EW!
(< click dat) Well you know what they say. Summer is for relaxation
and horrible movies. |
Sun, December 21, 2003: I just farted |
Aw man. Last night we were hanging out at starbucks.
Phew! All I remember is that there was much laughter. Example, briton
getting inside the upside down trash can thing that looked like a giant
bullet. That was quite funny.
That's what briton looked like Today we did our little secret santa
for secret gift giving thing. We did it at the cheesecake factory. I didn't
want to spend alot of money for food I would never be able to finish and
somehow I freaking spent a lot of money.
I really hope I can go to barbados.
I have enough money. I still have about $3,400 left in my bank account
from walgreens and cvs. That's even after buying my computer. The problem
would be convincing my parents. I ask my mom and she doesn't want to make
a decision. Poot. anywho. yeah going there would be hella sweetass. Oh,
and fuck dudes. I'm gonna go to africa in june! I mean at least I'm supposed
to. Goddd... africa is such an amazing place I'm sure. I've never left
this continent before. I'd like to go to 6 of the 7 continents before
I die. (theres no point to go to antartica). If I become rich, that is
precisely what I will do. Imagine spending like a year in one country
and then going to another country and spending a year there and so on.
By the end I'll have seen so much and understood other cultures and languages.
All I know is that I don't want to sit around in the same place my entire
life doing the same thing the whole time paying the same bills ect. Anyway,
speaking of traveling, my brother, steve, was like, "We should go
backpacking in europe summer '05." That would be fugging sweet. end. |
Fri, December 19, 2003: fucking shit! |
So I'm about to sit down and watch tv for the first
time in a while and the phone rings. It was kyle. He was all, "Go
up to paoli starbucks in about 15 to meet everyone." So I was all,
"right on." I decided to leave a few minutes early so I could
jump out at whoever came first. So I waited.. and waited.. and waited.
Finally I casually walked up to the counter, ordered a hot chocolate and
asked the lady what time it was. Well by then it was like 15 to 20 minutes
after when he said to get there. So I was all, "Can I use your phone?"
and she was all, "yes." I call up kyle and find out that nobody
else could show... I wasn't too happy. I wasn't upset with him, or the
people... or myself. I was upset with the circumstances of an otherwise
ordinary night. |
Fri, December 19, 2003: No bagel combo can combat
this |
I brought jenga into school! We jengad it up in some
classes, free period and lunch. What an extreme game. The rules require
you to yell "jenga" when the tower falls. The rules also require
joy and excitement. In the end many lives were lost from the falling blocks,
but it was well worth it. |
Thu, December 18, 2003: it needed to be done |
| If I didn't resdesign it.... who would? yeah I'm sure I'll get tired of this design in a month or so and change it again. anywho.... I've got to stop putting all this political stuff on here. Politics may be interesting but they aren't fun. I'd rather make this site fun than preachey. I wouldn't consider myself a libral anyway. Librals piss me off, and conservatives piss me off. I consider myself moderate. Keep a good balance. I applied to messiah college a few months back. they have quite a good art program. I got a scholarship for my sats and gpa for $2,000 a year. Also, I can get another scholarship for my art portfolio of $7,000 per year... that is... if it meets their requirements of a good portfolio. Only like 2 or 3 people get it I think. Not to brag, but I think mine will be good enough. That means, if I go there and stay for all 4 years then it's a total scholarship of $36,000. This is great news to my parents, of course, who put steve and are in the process of putting chris through college. The only thing that makes me not want to go there is that its a christian college. My parents want me to go to a christian college. The college doesn't require me to go to church or take bible classes or anything there... it's just that I can expect all these really conservative people there. |
Wed, December 17, 2003: okay the first part
of this update will have no commas and one period! |
me chaz kyle and jake went to see return of the king
we got a large pizza and 4 two liter sodas and smuggled them into the
theator later chaz and kyle got a bag of candy to smuggle in everyone
was pretty much quiet during the movie chaz clapped when the title showed
up and everyone else started to the movie was really long but was really
awesome the fight scenes kicked major ass this guy thought the movie was
over and started to clap finding he was the only one clapping so I put
my hand up and was like no no no cause he was sitting right behind me
he stopped clapping and felt like a fool as he should and he did it again
when he thought the movie was over again and then he did it again finally
it was the end and clapping was acceptable but he didn't clap.
I got a progress report in the mail
for art hist. I got a freaking 52 or something. I imagine it can only
get worse. Right now theres practically nothing good to look at until
the renaissance. And we're only around like 1000 AD.... the course ends
with 1900 AD I'm guessing cause thats about where we started, went to
the present, then went way back in time. These next 900 years are gonna
draaaaggg out for another semester I guess. I'm tired of looking at what
old churches looked like and having a quiz every week on that. |
Tue, December 16, 2003: I've got my work cut
out for me. |
| Yeah so yesterday I had a quiz in art history on 2
chapters. I don't know how many pages it was but it wouldn't be a stretch
to say 45 pages. And I'm sure you've seen the book. It's very big my friends.
Oh and, there is also another quiz on thursday on another chapter, 30
pages. The questions are fill in the blank. The answers can be on any
of the many pages. No one knows what the questions will be though....
well I'm beginning to think that some people do because they are getting
very good grades on it. Maybe I could sneek into Dr. Kershner's office
and find the quiz, fill it out and remember all the answers. Ugh.. all
I know is that having a quiz like every week only to fail is really a
downer, a detriment to my wellbeing. All this "studying" is
keeping me from doing art (which I've really been getting into this year
more than ever). Not just art for class just anything in general. I still
want to conquer flash...
Gosh darnit! Okay so I have shaving
cream on my face. I didn't even start shaving when I got a general itch
on my face. So like normally when I get an itch, I rubbed my face with
my sleeve. Shaving cream all over it. Man, I learned to never get an itch
while shaving. while we're on topic. I think my sidebuns are coming in
quite nicely. or at least much better than when I tried to grow them out
sophmore year!
Yeah so tommorow... the last
lord of the rings movie (return of the king) is coming out. This is what
happens: |
Tue, December 16, 2003: oh ho ho yeah... |
Oh yeah... I forgot to upload all this shit. |
Mon, December 15, 2003: Whoa.... |
Whoa I didn't know you could do transparency with images...
thats pretty sweetass if you ask me. |
| Sun, December 14, 2003: Fack! |
| Yeah I'm tired of hearing these christmas songs all the time. 25 days out of the month (maybe more) you have to hear the same 5 or 6 god-damned songs over and over again. I seriously heard the same song 2 times in a row just with different instruments and singers. Annoying... |
Sat, December 13, 2003: I wrote this update
in present tense, so it's like you're there with me. I also made some
sentence variety. |
So I'm driving due east from my house to find some present
for maura. I see barnes and noble. So I go in and look around. After a
few minutes I see this "The Wiggles" calender. I pick it up
and continue walking around the store to see if there is something I could
get her instead. Walk around for a half hour, give up, go back to the
register. I look at the line. It is freaking LoooOOoonG. I;m all, "Are
you fucking joking me?!" A lady hears me say that and thought I was
saying it to her cause I'm looking in her general direction. She's confused.
I point to the line and say, "The line is long." She understands
but is still saddened. I decide that I could probobly find something better
at the kop mall. So I drive all the way down there. I'm wise enough to
keep off of 202. I tirelessy fight through wave after wave of traffic.
I get into the back mall parking lot. As I'm driving in I glance to my
left only to see jake driving with his face pressed against the window...
oh yeah, cam is there too. So I drive up and down up and down up and down
row after row afrer row of parking spaces finding nothing. I'm freaking
boggled. Everytime I think I see an open space its just some cruel mirrage.
A handicap space, a compact car, a reserved for bank customers. I heard
a saying once that the handicap space is the mirrage of the parking lot.
Finally I'm like, "Fuck this shit!" So I leave. I wait in a
a line of cars for twenty minutes for one god damned light. FINALLY I
make it out of that gridlock. But not without my emotional scars. At points
I found myself punching the ceiling in anger. Oh and the people behind
me are having a great time about it, thinking its hilarious. Well I decide
to walk over to their car and put bullets in their skulls. I get back
in my car and go on my way. I'm on swedesford heading back home. I see
barnes and noble. So I pull into the parking lot there. I park the car
and sit there just to calm myself down. I know that if I went in the store
still angry I'd freaking deck someone if they got in my way. At last I
go inside my normal self. I pick up a "The Wiggles" calender,
wait in the line god damned. (or the line from hell) and buy the freaking
calender. I leave. I'm at home for a few hours. Chaz comes. We go to the
party. Me and chaz are the first there. We sit in glorious awkwarditity.
Other people begin to show. Maura shows. We suprise her. There is much
rejoicing. The hulk hands are brought out. There is much rejoicing. Hulk
smash. Food. G-unit. Tired. Leave. Home. Update. Sleep.
Let's talk politics: It's
kinda weird that george bush supported the death penalty in texas as governer
and had many executed under it, but is against abortion. I guess you could
say that it's only because the executed prisoners are sinners, but aren't
all sins equal. Furthermore, if a fetus is a life, then wouldn't it also
be a sinner because we're all born sinners? So there isn't really a difference
between the two in his eyes. I don't really think abortion is entirely
nesessary though. In extenuating circumstances, yes of course. But I see
it as selfish to abort cause you don't feel life having a baby. Adoption?
Especially if you're white. White kids are in demand. (My aunt and uncle
adopted a child. It's very difficult to get a white child. Huge waiting
list. Any other race is not in such high demand. My aunt and uncle adopted
a korean boy.) I don't know if I'd enact a law to keep someone from aborting
though. I don't think that I should have that right (as a law-maker) to
make that decsision. While we're on the topic. I was reading. And I found
it funny that the government (or the bush adim.) wants to keep people
from having sex. I read many examples of anti std and teen pregnancy programs
that promoted the use of condoms completely changed into the unrealistic
alternative of pre-marital abstinence. Even any mention of a condom in
a document was taken out. Are their trying to destroy the sex instinct?
Make it something not of pleasure but just a way to continue the species
(our duty to the party)?
More politics: War
with pitiful Iraq is one thing. Their armies weren't worth shit. Our guys
are still dying almost every day though. Things are dragging out. If people
were convinced that Iraq (who allegedly had weapons of mass destruction...
which were never found..) was a threat to us, then what about N. Korea,
another memeber of the "Axis of Evil". The other two members
of the axis of evil were taken out. Now there is N. Korea. They DO have
WMD. Their not denying it. They brag about it. They have huge facilities
to enrich uranium. They deny the population of electricity from nuclear
power plants to make nukes. So what if G.W.B. is re-elected and wants
to go to war with them? That'd freaking suck. They have a million people
in their army willing to die. And what about us? We still have a lot of
guys. But fighting them again could prove to be a loss in that resource.
Here is an interesting fact. {{{A little-known provision of President
Bush's education reform act turns every high school into a military recruiting
station. Under the act, high schools are required to provide military
recruiters with students' names, addresses and telephone numbers. You
have to wonder what that could possibly have to do with improving the
education of students. Can you kids spell "cannon fodder"? Source:

Thu, December 11, 2003: I'm in one of those
writing moods; |
Art history trip today. I missed out on school!! yeah
man. yeah. We looked at medievil and early renaissance art. Just like
last time, I fell asleep whenever we sat down and the lady talked. Also,
Dr. Kershner made it so that we can take home the roman art test and use
the book. That'll seriously help my grade. Also great is that mrs. burns
postpode the critique til monday. So I have an extra weekend!
On a suckey note; I was playing this
game called max payne 2 on my computer. Well of course my parents walk
in (on seperate occasions) the worst parts of the game. My dad walked
in just at a part where a these two guys get shot right in the head. Blood
everywhere. My mom walks in where this chick is in the shower as our hero
max payne is talking to her. Of course they flipped out on me. They don't
want my little mind corrupted by such things! So I moved my computer to
my bedroom. Now I can close the door without the room being used as a
freaking hallway. If you've ever been to my house, the fastest way to
get to my parent's bathroom and/or bedroom is through the room my computer
was previously in. It has a door on each side. Now I don't have to worry
about that. Theres one door in this room. The only problem is that there
is no internet hookup. I think I'd like to get my own line in my room.
That way I don't have to get off every freaking time my mom needs to make
a phone call. And I could attach a phone to that thing too to have my
own telephone. Yeah... that'd be sweet.
Wow I just found the address of my old
guestbook. When I changed sites, I changed guestbooks. It's not really
anything worth looking at, but if you want to then click
here. Speaking of back then. Whenever I look on old entries I feel
sick. First of all they weren't funny at all. Second, they were all...
ugh... I kinda wish I could start high school over again knowing what
happened so I could change things. Everything is great now. I wish I made
better decisions on the classes I took. If I decide I don't want to take
photograhy next semester... I can't graduate. If I don't get an extended
experience form in next semester... I can't graduate. If I go into school
and put a bullet in someone's head if they even spoke to me... I can't
graduate.
The simple things in life are the greatest.
You know man? You know. Carpe Diam man.... yeah man... yeah. carpe diam.
sieze that freaking diam you know what I'm sayn'?

DANGEROUS UNDEROOS MAKE POO !! |
Mon, December 8, 2003: I feel like cheese whiz
is oozing out of every oraphes in my body. including my peehole. and I
really don't like it one bit. |
Yeah so I'm in genardis with chaz and jake and we buy
cheese whiz and crackers. Bunch of crackas buying crackers. Anywho...
we took these crackers and cheese whiz and did the unthinkable. We combined
them together. The fusion of cheese and cracker began. Cheese whiz: a
moist dairy product with dispensed from a can with suprising adhesity
(see also 'sicktoitiveness') Cracker: One part stale bread, one part salt.
A winning combination. So we ate this things. We drove in chazs jeep from
there and picked up kyle, "Ugh I hate these things," he said
as he put one in his mouth and ate it. We drove to the movie theator.
Coming upon a patch of snow chaz decided to swerve the jeep. The car sawyed
back and forth until finally skidding sideways almost hitting some shrubbery.
I noticed a white nissan pathfinder behind us had witnessed the whole
event. "Hey my dad drives one of those," I thought to myself.
I looked back again and noticed that my dad was driving. After seeing
the last samari and consuming much cheese whiz we went home. My dad had
a talking to me about responsibility in cars and such. Yeah he saw me
in there. Now I feel sick cause I ate too much cheese whiz. That was my
downfall today. Cheese whiz. That stuff its like a drug. It feels so right
at the time but in the end you always feel bad. I couldn't really expect
any better from kraft foods though (a division of phillip morris co.)
Speaking of phillip morris. Phillip morris has close ties with the bush
administration. During the campaign in 2000, phillip morris was one of
the companies that donated the most money to putting the current president
in power. In 2001, after terrorist attacks on 9/11 and an incident of
a man lighting his shoe on fire in a plane in an attempt to blow up a
bomb in his shoe, there was a list made for all the things not permitted
on airplanes. Two things not on the list were matches and lighters. As
soon as a addict gets off a long flight with banned smoking, the first
thing they want to do is smoke a ciggarette. Having a lighter handy lets
them do so ASAP. Did phillip morris have something to do with this decision
in spite of the fact that a man attempted to blow up a plane after 9/11
with a match against his shoe? Heres
my source. |
Sun, December 7, 2003: "...a day that will
live in infamy, when the empire of japan made a sudden and deliberate
attack..." |
Yeah today was pearl harbor day for those of you who
don't know about history. |
Sat, December 6, 2003: ??? |
Ah... nothing like the first big snow of the season.
And it's pretty early too! Nothing like laying in bed wrapped up in an
enigma of blankets and covers watching the snow fall outside. Nothing
like going inside with rosy cheeks and a runny nose only to have some
nice hot tomatoe soup, grilled cheese sandwiches and hot chocolate. Ah
the simple joys of life.
Last night I played starcraft with briton
and jake. First time any of us have played in a long time. It was fun.
Especially since I won. |
Fri, December 5, 2003: !!! |
Yeah so fall is officially over now. I've gone from
raking leaves to shoveling snow. My dad said he was going to buy a snowblower.
That'd be cool. I could take that thing and blow a whole bunch of people's
driveways... and they'd have to pay me! I'd just go up the street. One
by one. When I finally get home I'd have this fatty wad of dough. I'd
say to my dog, "Look buddy! Currency!"
Oh man. what a great day. well for the
most part.
I'll start w/the bad. So I spend like...
a long time last night working on a concentration piece for art. I'm pretty
satisfied with the piece and I'm sort of excited to show it to mrs. burns
the next day. So I wake up and see the snow and I'm all like, "yeah
I like life!" I thought about wearing the gorillas to cause a huge
upset in the school. I realized that in the snow the gorillas would be
like giant sponges around my feet. Oh and I also had gym.. So instead
I brought the hippie whig and applied it to my head time and again. After
1st period I walk through the courtyard and happy and shit. Then I see
joe and jeff from art class. I suddenly remembered that I left my freaking
art on my bed!! I went to the main office and asked them if I could call
my mom to come and bring it to me cause art is next period. there was
no answer. So I went to art empty handed. It gets worse. I talk to my
mom when I get home and find out that she took the art to school at 7:30.
Thats like a half hour before I went to the main office. They didn't call
me down. They didn't tell me when I went in and told them I left art at
home and needed to call my mom. Augh... what do they even do in there
anyway? I saw like 5 ladies just sitting around talking about stupid shit
with CNN showing people getting blown up on one of the hundreds of telesreens
in our school. Yeah I wasn't too happy. Of course they jump the gun on
calling your house when you aren't at school to catch you faking sick.
And while we're at it. Guidance.. phew... where are they all the time.
I go in and my counseler is never there. anywho....
Yeah so after school we're all throwing
snowballs at each other and shit. nick
and chaz's cars had all
wheel/4 wheel drive capabilities so it was cool to drive in the snow.
We get to kyle's street and are freaking POWER sliding.... Oh ho ho man..
soooo key. Almost fishtaling into people's mailboxes/little electric jobby
things/cars/yards was quite exhilerating. |
Thu, December 4, 2003: ?! |
I went to the gym at the y with chaz, jake
and todd. I realised that I have no need to go there. I may not be very
strong but I'm as strong as I need to be. I remembered that working isn't
very fun.
I found out that that little gash under
my teeth on my gums is a canker sore. It takes a few days to heal. Looks
like I can't get out of school for them to look at it.
I had an assignment for creative writing
where me and a partner (ryan boswel) get a creative non-fiction article
and teach the class about it. Ours was about how everything from toenail
clippers to leaf blowers are banned from commercial airliners. But matches
and lighters are not. Even after a man attempted to light his shoe on
fire which had a bomb inside it. The reason: big tobacco got the bush
administration to lift the ban because the first thing an addict would
want to do when they got off a long flight would be to smoke it up. We
then went on from that about other wrongs of the administration. It was
fun! you should read this if you have a lot of time on your hands or just
care. Thousand reasons.
download the list and read it. it will take like 5 or 6 hours to read
the whole thing though... |
Wed, December 3, 2003: ? |
Don't you just love the chilly feeling of that brisk fall air in your nose? You can smell the smoke of someone's fireplace in their home. You can smell the dead colorful leaves on the ground. The cool air tingles the tiny hairs in your nose... |
Tue, December 2, 2003: ! |
| My non existant privilege card was threatoned to be
taken away for not ordering a cap and gown. I told them that I'm just
going to use my brother's cap and gown. I also told them I don't even
have a privilege card for them to take away. Quick on their feet, they
said they'd give me a detention instead. All I have to do is remember
to tell some guy in some room somewhere that I'm using my brother's cap
and gown for that one to two hours of my life when I need it most. Will
I remember? No, of course not. I can't see myself remembering a thing
such as that.
Oh man. okay I have a funny story. I
go into the bathroom after 7th period. I had to take a leak really bad.
But there were a lot of people in the bathroom cause the period just ended.
So I went into a stall. While I'm pissing I relax my body and a fart comes
out. These guys outside the stall are talking but then hear it and go
silent. "Yeah so I said to mr. gibson...."
*Fart* "....wait... did you hear that....."
One of them knocks on the stall to see if someone (being me) was
actually in there or it was just some other noise. After he knocked I
was like, "Yeah I farted." There
was an extended pause................ followed by their laughter. They
continued laughing for a minute or so. Deep, loud, true laughter. I came
out of the stall, glanced at them, washed my handles and left. |
Mon, December 1, 2003: Dude I'm a fucking hippie.
I hate myself! |
I found a wig a few days ago. When I put on a hat with the wig I look like a fucking hippie. Ah.. taking a test when you don't know
about it isn't too bad. Unless you didn't read that chapter. And unless
the test is short answer. My mom told me I should try to get a good grade
in art history. I'm sorry momma. I never meant to hurt you. ugh. I'm a
bastard now for quoting eminem. |
Sun, November 30, 2003: Are you fucking kidding
me?! |
No. you obvouisly aren't. I'm playing with this new
yo-yo outside near the woods. So I do a shoot that moon or whatever the
hell it's called and well guess what happened? The string fucking broke!!
I watched with sadness as it shot into the woods circa de 34 em-pee-ech
(mph). It was too dark by then to search for it. What is it with me and
yo-yos? Do I put too much yo in them? A little bit over the topspin? (ok
c'mon that was clever!) Yeah well my dreams have once again been shattered.
Perhaps this is god's way of telling me I'd better get a better hobby
before he smites me with a might smote.
Yeah I went to john's pizza tonight
with my family. My mom ordered in before and said erickson. Well apparently
the girl that works there knows me by erickson cause I go there a lot.
We sit down and she brought the pizza over to us. And then she brought
cups with ice in 'em without us even having to ask. I don't get that kinda
service at bravo. I ask for a medium pizza, "Eh!
How about a large?"
"No... I want medium." "eh
how about a large...."
"What was that? I heard
that. Give me a medium." Later I come up cause I
need a glass of ice for a 2 liter I got. "Yeah
can I get a glass with ice in it please?" "Eh
how about a large?" "Wh... what?
That doesn't make any sense!"
Ugh so of course now I feel sick cause
I ate too much pizza. And of course there is some left for me to take
in my lunch to school tommorow. And of course as I'm eating it I'm just
going to HAVE to scream "PIZZA!" like some sort of retard that
I might have seen once.
Ho ho man this is all filler text.
Basically cause I need ten journal pages tommorow for creative writing
and I use my site updates for that. yeah lets see.... I've been fartey
fart farting all over the place recently. Probobly from all that italian
and mexican food I've been eating over the weekend.
Does anyone remember that one episode
of seinfeld where everyone keeps feeding jerry's girlfriend turkey and
stuff at her house so she'll fall asleep. And then when shes asleep they
go and play with all these cool toys. I mean like kid's toys. Gold! See
Seinfeld the show is a great show. Seinfeld the stand up comedy... eh...
no... no it's really bad. What is the deal with airline peanuts jerry,
please tell me. Back to the show... I would say seinfeld is the best sitcom
in all ever. "Duhh friends is better.." some might say. Well
I know I have friends who like friends but still. Ah! That show. AH! Have
they all had sex with each other by now? Thats not what friends do! They
should call it "More than friends". "I'll be there for
you!! Having sex with your ex girlfriend who was also my other friend's
girlfriend!! I'll be there for you-hoooo!!! Artificially insemanating
your wiiiiffeee!!! I'll be there for youuuuu!! Making rediculous amounts
of money to cast a show that should've been cancelled long ago!!!"
They only make money because they cast hip young attractive people as
our friends. Phew..... glad I got that one out. Oh and don't argue. Please
god no. |
Sun, November 30, 2003: Fun facts |
Fun Fact: Pink Floyd's album "Dark Side of the Moon" spent 700 weeks on the billboard top 100 list. Thats more than any other album in history and still is. 700 weeks, thats 13.461538461538461538461538461538 years or 4913.4615384615384615384615384615 days. Fun Fact: There is something about the Lussier's property (as in Emily Lussier) that makes my dog buddy just want to take a diggity on it. Every time I take him for a walk we get to their yard and he squats and... well.... bodily functions commense. |
Fri, November 28, 2003: Nothing like mashed
turkey and sliced potatoes. er... wait..... |
So I went to the other side of paoli for thanksgiving.
I was there along with my parents, middle brother, aunt and uncle (along
with their kids) and my mom's aunt (or my great aunt). I have to say that
my family is realing annoying when it comes to speaking. I go into the
living room with my two year old cousin and he wants to watch monsters
inc. (and so did I cause I've never seen it). So I pop the dvd in and
start the movie and set it at a reasonable volume. Then the family comes
in and have to talk so freaking loud so I turn up the volume and then
they yell at me to turn it down and so on and so forth.
So tonight I went to see gothica w/my
buddies. It was alright. Sort of a pseudo sixth sense type of movie except
more emphasis on crazy people (which I simply adore). There was too much
ugly old/fat chick nudity and not enough young hot chick nudity. I was
making a lot of side comments along the way akin to that of mysetery science
theater 3000. the people in front of us also enjoyed talking. they talked
a little louder maybe. at one point I pushed the one kids seat forward
w/my right foot. The guy turned around and I pointed at the movie screen,
"Movie," I stated. He understood and turned around. I didn't
say they stopped talking though.
Kyle drops me off at my house after
the movie. I walk inside and scooped myself up some ice cream. "Oh
peter annie called," my mom said. "She left something on the
front porch I think." So I went to the front porch and there was
a brown paper bag with 'happy thanksgiving' written on accompanying a
turkey that was about to be sent off to the slaughter. I pulled out a
yo-yo from the bag. I was overjoyed, even though I knew what it was before
I pulled it out. I then proceeded to yo-yo for the next 20 minutes. I
decided that I wanted some ice cream and I went to the kitchen only to
find a bowl of melted ice cream on the table. (Read this section again
if you didn't catch that last part)
Who else would be cool enough to give
me a yo-yo on the night after thanksgiving? No one I presume. Thank you
annie. Going out of your way to give me a nice yo-yo. I am going to be
a yo-yo champ someday and I'll tell them that you dared me to dream...
or something good like that. |
Wed, November 25, 2003: Please read this update.
It'll only take like 5 minutes! C'mon! Please read it for the love of
god. |
I was thinking; the PA turnpike is the most depressing
modern wasteland of our time. Imagine getting on the turnpike and realizing
you don't even have the $0.35 to get off! What do you do! You're screwed
man! They won't cut you a break. You're stuck there. You have to go to
a reststop McDonalds and work until you can get enough money to leave.
Oh that sounds simple enough seeing as it's only 35 cents to leave the
massive concrete soundbarriers, but you have to apply first. They review
your application after you turn it in. Of course you have to leave a few
days for them to call previous employers and make sure the resume is good.
If they call your house you won't be there to answer the phone. Finally
you go in and talk to the greacy-faced teen face to face. You ask him
for the manager. Of course it's his day off. You return the next day and
get the job! The manager sets an appointment for the following wednesday
for training. Of course you don't get paid for training. The worthless
kid working there does a horrible job training you so you have to come
back again the next day to get trained more. Finally, the manager sets
up your schedule. From the time you found you couldn't leave the turnpike
you've been surviving on dirty water fountain water, condiments, food
scraps in the garbage can and small sliced pickles. You've been sleeping
in your car which has an empty tank of gas. Finally you work your first
8 hour day. At $6 an hour thats a little more than $40 you made that day.
You continue working through the remainder of the week through the next
one because pay checks don't come in for two weeks. After two weeks of
hard work, serving hungry travelers, truckers and commuters it's finally
pay day. You get your paycheck. Theres more than enough on the paycheck
to feed yourself, fill the car with gas and pay the measley toll. You
go up to the manager and say, "Fuck you man! I fucking quit this
fucking job." A child hears the fuck word and tears fill its eyes.
An old lady of 75 also hears you. She simply dies right there. She explodes.
You walk out of the low grade fast food resturant completely satisfied.
You have your life back once again. Freedom at last. No more licking up
hamburger greece off used trays for nourishment. No more going to the
bathroom only to find puss sprayed on the mirror. No more using an old
rag dipped in dark water to clean your body. But then you have a realization.
The paycheck is worthless. There aren't any banks within the walls of
the turnpike to cash it. You can never go back into the McDonalds to eat
people's leftover food or use the restroom. The manager will never let
you back in. Now you're fucking screwed man. You sit next to your car
and slowley waste away over the next week and a half. The sharp pains
of hunger become more and more distinct as each day passes. The only way
to quench your thirst is by drinking from the filthy, oily puddles that
settle on the corners of sidewalks. You know, the ones that pigeons bathe
in. Finally your body cannot take the hunger and thirst. Your heart stops
beating fresh red blood into your brain. Your brain isn't recieving any
oxygen now. For thirty seconds you've been dead. Suddenly a nurse sees
you. After half a minute of CPR you are revived back to life. Your current
mental state keeps you from thanking the kind lady after being deprived
of O2 for so long. You've suffered extreme brain damage. Everything goes
black again. You wake up in a hospitol bed somewhere. You've made it out!
But at a price. Your brain was damaged so much that you can't even appreciate
being out of the sinister walls. But there is a balloon floating across
the telivision screen. You clap your hands in ignorant euphoria. Even
though you are retarded, you lay in discomfort somehow knowing things
aren't quite right. Unfortunatley, you didn't escape the boundries of
the PA turnpike. In fact you are in a clinic that is merely in a different
section of the turnpike a few miles down the road. You're too retarded
to take any notice though. For many many more years you continue laying
in that bed, being fed through a clear plastic tube and you continue clapping
at reruns of the balloon on the tv screen. Living an unnaturally long
life to the age of 109 you finally die. You only die because when clapping
at the balloon your life support was knocked out of its plug. You gasp
for air with wide dinner plate eyes but that leads to no avail. At last
your diaphragm runs out of energy and your heart simply cannot beat anymore.
Endorphines are inflating your mentally retarded head. You lay there with
drool seaping from your mouth lying in a puddle of your own sweat. A new
nurse rushes in and finds you dead. She pushes the bed up to the window.
She lifts the single at an acute angle. Your corpse slides through the
sheets and out the open window. Your decrepeted body falls down three
stories until finally landing in a dumpster. The force of the fall shatters
many bones in your body leaving you unrecognizable. Until now, you've
outlived everyone you once loved. There was no one left for you. Even
the balloon cared not for you. But you're finally at peace. Altough you'll
never leave the turnpike, you are finally out of your misery. The end. |
Tue, November 25, 2003: OKAY! |
Whoa don't everyone get excited at once. The guestbook
is working again. I don't know why, I don't know how. Just don't fucking
jinx it okay? OKAY!
This is sorta random but I just want
to say that I'm really happy I'm not working at walgreens anymore. Or
a drug store in general. I remember one time at walgreens one of the managers
(he was cool) said, "Fuck school, you can just work here for a living."
That depressed me. It depressed me that that is that mans career choice
for the rest of his life. (3 thats in one sentence, what a stupid language
we have) I definately know I would not want to spend my life being people's
bitch. |
Mon, November 24, 2003: Dats me! |
This is me below. BELOW ME! (say that really fast and
you'll get it). Zach got me some super cool stylish sunglasses. They're
obnoxiously large and have a yellow tint to them. The beanie... well I've
had that for years. You know that you silly reverend. okay... check it!
Yeah we went to the cheesecake factory.
In the factory we ordered some appetizers that could've fed like 50 etheopians
for a week. OR it could have fed 1 sumo wrestler for one meal. OR it could've
fed 6 teenage males for part of a meal as a whole. And thats what did
happen. We asked a waiter for a pen to write down secret santa names.
Nick went to return it to the pen guy but it wasn't the right person.
See, the man who gave it to him was black and stupid shitty made the mistake
of giving it to the wrong black man. The man gave him a puzzled/angered
look and nick sat down embarrassed. It was quite a melee that will not
soon be forgotten. So what were we talking about? eh whatever. anyway.
I gots to get my skool werk done.
I went to return an overdue book to
the library and I wore my hat and glasses ensemble. I rode my bike there.
On the way back I passed some kids from the friends school I presume on
the bridge. After passing them the chain came loose. My leg jutted down
and I wiped out face first onto the corner of the sidewalk and street.
My groin scraped against. "Ow my groin!" I said.. well no...
in reality I said, "Oh that was on purpose," As the teenagers
passed by. Then I said, "Ow my groin!" I fixed the chain and
rode home. I get home and see a box in my room that I should've noticed
before. Inside I found a pink floyd shirt with the walking hammers (If
you've ever seen the wall (great movie) you'd know what I was talking
about) and a radiohead shirt with a 'where I end and you begin' tag on
it. I was quite shocked. I didn't order it. It had my parents names on
the ordering form or whatever. The only other person that would want both
of those shirts would be my brother in africa but in africa they would
get way too dirty and messed up so that wouldn't make sense. Are they
for me? I hope so.
Whenever I see an exclamation point
in my art history book I just want to find some nerdy kid and slit his
throat. Only because that nerdy kid will grow up to be just like the book's
author. In it's entirty the book is devastatingly boring and serious.
But then every once in a while the writer of the 1198 page book becomes
excited and decides a ! is appropriate.
In any other circumstance I would love to have an exclamation point to
hilight forms of words such as: danger, excitement, fear, love, joy ect.
No, but the writer finds it necessary to put unneeded exclamation on things
such as an ironic happenstance during some point in the course of human
existance. I haven't encountered any double or tripple exclaimation points
yet. Something would really have to excite the writer for that. (see
also; wettened whistle; tickled fancy)
Man there are too many people in this
world. I know that when I was in 7th grade the 6 billion mark was reached.
How many are there now? 6.5? 7? And it will only grow more and more in
the future. More people consuming natural resourses, including food and
water. That means less resources which leads to more suffering. What is
to be done, if anything. Will it take some huge unknown disese? SARs sure
as hell wasn't it. Maybe a giant global war. A natural disaster? Will
people have to colonize other planets? Maybe the governments will put
more restrictions on fucking and having children. Maybe nothing will happen
and we'll go into extintion from over population like so many other species
have. |
Sun, November 23, 2003: "Tell me,"
He said, "how soon will they shoot me?" "It might be a
long time," Said O'Brien. "You are a difficult case. But don't
give up hope. Everything is cured sooner or later. In the end we shall
shoot you." |
"Holy fuck!" I exclaimed. I found a family
size box of wheat thins in my household's pantry. Family size!? It's the
size of a cereal box. I guess I know what I'm going to do this afternoon.........................
eat it.
Is it normal for my farts to smell
like diareah?
Man I just remembered how much schoolwork
I have to do tommorow. Is it going to be this way every other week all
year long? Is there no relief?.... there is thanksgiving , winter and
spring break. But wait... those are the weeks the projects will be assigned
over. What in the f?
That line in the title is from 1984.
Man that book is good/disturbing. Of course that one snippet from the
book doesn't really say why the book is great.
Yo word. the guestbook is up and running
again somehow. or at least it was earlier today. check
it out and sign it to make sure you fucks. |
Thu, November 20, 2003: Today I'm going to
talk about Bob's Big Boy restaurants. |
So I'm sitting in free period in the library by myself,
all bored and shit, and the idea sparks into my head of making propaganda
posters. I open microsoft word; "DOWN WITH PIRATE CULTURE CLUB!"
it read. I then added, "NINJAS ARE BETTER." I printed it out
and stuck it in the copy machine for 40 copies. During the next free period
Annie (by her own free will of course) continuosly gave the treasurer
of Pirate Culture Club the papers speaking against his club. Thank god
the classes before us did good on the PSSAs so that we could have copy
machines (even though I think they would have bought them anyway... it
was all just a front). Speaking PSSAs.... remember a while back when they
said that PSSAs score do NOT go on your transcript and/or resumé?
Well they were lying or changed their minds or something. I had to turn
in a signed form that stated that I didn't want my scores on the transcript.
Apparently this "No Child Left Behind" act that was set forth
by our president (or his puppeteers) for the purpose of making sure everyone
gets a equal education. Equal opportunity. Sounds kinda left wing for
him. What that translates into though is more testing on schools to make
sure the kids are proffeciant. If one kid in a school gets an amazing
grade but the average is below the required level, the entire school must
take the test over and over until they get the grade. Oh, and if your
school does quite good on the test, then you get extra funding as a bonus.
(hey our school got that!) But the schools that are getting the good test
scores are also the schools that have money. So in essence, the rich are
getting richer. Also, more restrictions are placed on teachers. Teachers
have to take standardized test just like the children no matter what position
they hold. With all this paperwork and scoring it looks like the school
system will turn into more of a buracracy than it is. It's funny that
a staunch republican would want to place so many regulations on the school
system but not on businesses. Not saying school isn't any less important
than business, but I thought part of the art of being republican was less
government restrictions and regulations on things. Ah who knows. I wouldn't
consider myself republican but I'm not a democrat either though. I don't
sit on the fence. All I know is that I have opinions. |
Wed, November 19, 2003: Hook, line and sinker.... |
Phew. I just a food bag aren't I? You know you have
an eating problem when you've eaten too much junk food and feel sick to
your stomach but still continue eating. I said aloud today,
"Ugh... I can't eat one more cookie." Kyle grabbed me,
I yelled in fear and he shoved a cookie in my ajar mouth. "AHHHhhouugghhh
cough... gurggle" My face cringed as the wonderful doughey
whad was forced into my mouth. But I still ate the cookie. I was about
get my revenge on him but decided it was worth it and finished the cookie.
My yo-yo string broke... I am deeply
saddened.
Ah god. I wish he'd go away. Sean
O'rorke. It's like seeing the starving children on TV; you feel sorry
for them but at the same time you just want to change the channel. I want
to change the channel on him. Just grab a remote and either mute him,
change him into someone else or simply turn him off and sweep him under
a rug somewhere. If this were under any other circumstance I would not
care at all. I can't do anything there without him commenting on it in
such a way that you just want him to perish. How could one posess no social
skills at all? It's the crying, the over-reacting, the unbearably poor
sarcasm, the obnoxiously loud talking, the tone of his voice ect. The
worst part is how he constantly reminds people how bad his life is, hoping
that someone would pity him or something. I don't have the heart to tell
him these things, even though I'm sure he's heard it a million times before.
Even if I did, it would yield no effect. I can't bare to make a 17 year
old boy cry and become the laughing stock for two secondsI just want to
go get inside a garbage can and be taken away. I want him to fall in a
well. I want him to be swept away by gale force winds to a distant land.
I want him to fall in a manhole and forever wander in the sewers, surviving
only on dead goldfish and fecal matter. Best of all, I want him to go
make some friends with people I don't know. |
Tue, November 18, 2003: dood... |
Okay. How awesome is it that there are only two days
of school next week with the conferences and thanksgiving and all. btw:
I finally made a page for images. check
it out maybe.
Ah old memories. I just talked to
joe online. We had basically the same conversation that we would've had
in art studio class over the years. It was quite funny.
Man... pissed. I'm in free period
in the cafeteria with kyle, chaz, nick and annie. Someone is all, "Lets
go to the bakesale!" So we start walking down from the cafeteria
to the gym lobby. We get pretty near and someone says out loud.
"wheres the bakesale?" These two teachers were sitting
on a desk in the gym lobby. "Can't you see
the bakesale is over!?! Get out of here! Where are you supposed to be?!"
"Uh.. we're in free period... we came from
the cafeteria." "Well thats where
you should be! Get back there!" Kyle walks over to see if
vending machines are on. "What are you doing!?
I told you to go to the cafeteria!" We all eventually left.
{{But we didn't leave without a fight. I went over to the one guy and
punched him in the face. He grabbed his head in pain and lowered it. I
grabbed his head with both hands and slammed it on my knee. His eyes rolled
back into its sockets and he shook uncontrollably. I gave him one last
shove and he fell off the desk and his already damaged head broke open
on the hard tiled floor. A pool of blood emerged from the crack in his
cranium. The other teacher looked at me, horrified. I took out a pistol
and pointed it at her head. She looked, cross eyed, down the barrel of
the gun. Before she could react, BLAM! The small pointed piece of metal
pierced its way into her forehead, through her brain destroying vital
tissues and back out through the mess of hair in the rear of her head.
Warm, crimson blood spattered freshly on the opposite wall. Smoke seeped
out of the dark bullet wound. Her lifeless corpse fell over. "Haha,
aw man I showed them right guys?" "Pete,
what are you doing? You just killed those two teachers." ".........."
I looked blankly at my friends smiling. All the sudden Mr. Vogan popped
in. "Heh hey!!" he said and then
he walked off. After walking about five steps he stopped. He turned around
and looked at the dead teachers, then at me, then at the teachers again.
Then he turned and continued walking. }} We all went back to the
cafeteria and enjoyed the rest of our free period. |
Mon, November 17, 2003: New site design.. I
didn't like the other one |
Yeah I decided to make the site like this. the other
one had some technical problems that I could've easily fixed but didn't
feel like it. this one is a lot less technical. no frames, no rollovers,
no special effects. Just text and pictures. Oh and a neat backround image.
do you like it? all the leaves. How fun is that?
I got my little senior quote in. I
thought about how great it would be if I ganked someone elses quote from
the manilla folder and changed their quote. I'd make it like "Hi
I'm dumb!" Of course I don't hate anyone enough to do such a thing
to them. Not that I wouldn't laugh if someone else did. |
Sun, November 16, 2003: enemas are my enemies |
I forgot some things. I had a nice lazy weekend. Mostly
consisting of sitting around and reading and/or drawing. I just realized
I'm supposed to show mrs burns a sketch of a piece of art that I want
to emulate in my own or whatever. I get on that or else she'll be even
more angry after what happened friday 8th period.... luckily I didn't
make her mad.....
So on friday I'm all hanging out at
kyle's w/chaz and jake. Pretty much sitting around. Then kyle's all, "I'm
gonna make food." and he did just that. I don't remember what he
made but I remember liking it and someone taking a dump soon after. Hehe...
I farted on jake's head while he was talking to someone on the phone.
I rule. He did throw a shoe at my face afterwards. I didn't approve of
that. At some point me and chaz left to buy stuff celery. We came home
with more than celery, such as smore making food products. So we all later
went to jake's house and (just to spite the wind) we built a fire. Marshmallow
roasting commenced. I made a discovery. Roasting a marshie and putting
it between two chocalate chip cookies is awesome. And that is precisely
what we did, in addition to smores. Yep, nothing like sitting by the fire
talking politics late into the night.
I keep having weird/awesome/hilarious
dreams. Alot of them are about a friend of mine acting very uncharacteristic
of themselves. Try this one on for size: (keep in mind this is a dream)
I'm sitting in the courtyard with everyone and I'm talking to briton.
Oh it gets better. First of all, he's STUFFING his face with all sorts
of meat. Like he takes a big sloppy piece of rubbery chicken and gulps
it down. And then I'm all like, "what are you
doing.... I thought you were vegan.." and he goes, "well
seeing as this week is the vegan challenge, I'm eating meat. it's like
opposite day." I looked at him , puzzled. briton then went
on to take a bottle of gin out of his bag and sip it. "aren't
you straight edge?" I asked. "yeah,
but see I'm only against getting drunk. it's okay to drink as long as
I'm not intoxicated." I was confused but accepted the situation
because it was a dream. then I woke up. I sat in my bed for a minute or
so. then I started laughing. then I went back to sleep. (that dream has
been paraphrased because I don't remember the exact words. but you got
the jist of it) |
Sun, November 16, 2003: Pete, you just can't
stop can you? |
Like the new site design? It's all red and shit. I
COULD have done blue... but I decided not to. It's nice to get a little
change now and then right? |
Sat, November 15, 2003: drawing pad=happiness? |
I got a drawing pad for my computer. Basically, I can
take a special little pen, make an imaginary line on the pad and it'll
show up on the computer. I use photoshop with it. I've been making a whole
bunch of desktop backrounds with this thingey. I have like almost 30.
And then some more that I made with different stuff. Anywho... if anyone
would like to have any of these pictures to use as backrounds on their
computer then tell me. I'll gladly make you a cd, no charge. I just need
to get some blank cds now.... |
Thu, November 13, 2003: the birds were blown
away in the wind |
Theres a tree right next to my window upstairs that
had a birds nest in it. I remember watching the parents build the nest
and guard the eggs, seeing the young birds after they hatched and witnessing
the parents finding food for the babies. Today it was very, very windey
and the trees were violently swaying. I saw the birds there only yesterday.
They aren't there any more. The nest is gone. Now I can see lightning
and hear the tapping of the tree against the window. |
Thu, November 13, 2003: Sweet ass? |
The gorillas are going to be worn tomorrow. |
Wed, November 12, 2003: Whoooo |
Yeah I stayed home from school today. I had to put on this whole sharade about being sick and all. So now I'm here, it's 8am and I gotta get some work done to justify my staying home. Once I get my art and all done then I can screw around all I want. Oh yeah, I also missed an art history quiz for this. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch my morning cartoons. PS: The guestbook on this site just plain isn't working. I don't know what to do to get it good again. Later today: wow I just looked through
some of my old sketchbooks.. I have sketches that go back to 3rd grade.
I noticed that in every single sketchbook there is something exploding
and at least on guy getting his brains blown out. I was a violent kid
I guess. Good thing I never got a hold of a gun or anything. I also noticed
that I got progressively better in each sketch book up to the present.
Did it take me that long to get where I am now or did I only get better
after going through the art studio program at school? Well.. all I know
is that I have to finish the other art piece now. I just got the first
one done. |
Tue, November 11, 2003: I still gotta pee...
REAL BAD |
Just so you know, some of the updates have been longer
recently because I'm using them for creative writing. I may have mentioned
this before. I have to have 10 journal pages or 5 double spaced typed
pages by the end of each week. One week is usually juuuust enough to make
the grade and get a perfect. I just have to keep doing this for the rest
of this marking period and I'll be set in stone... or something like that.
|
Mon, November 10, 2003: I gotta pee.... REAL
BAD |
Okay so I'm sitting there in free period with nick. There is a small, unopened container of cream cheese that joined us for free period. I was angered with the cream cheese. I raised my clenched fist into the air. The pathetic plastic, container looked up at me with it's glassy eyes. Sma, sma, smash!!! (shows my hand smashing container from multiple angles). Cream cheese everywhere. "You want creeem cheese?!" "No thanks tumor lady! I got some!" A line of splatter went all the way down the table and onto the back of megan's (I forget her last name) sweatshirt. I looked wide eyed at the glob of cream cheese on her and then back at nick. By now nick had lost so much of his jesus that he was about to be sent to an eternity in hell. One of Megan's friends informed her of the cream cheese. I didn't notice until she was standing right next to me all angry. I shamefully wiped the cream cheese off her with my sweatshirt. I don't blame her for being angry, though but it wasn't intended to get on her though. Dude I need to stop eating so much
food all the time. Eating all the time may not have that much of an affect
on my weight but it makes me feel gross every night. I kept asking people
today if they had change for a $20 but thankfully no one did. I didn't
have any smaller bills and I dared not allure the rath of tumor lady.
"I... I don't have any other bills! I'm sorry!"
"ninety..." "Sorry
what?" "ninety...
ninety....... NINETY!!!!!"
Anywho, thats only a hypothetical conversation between me and tripple
lip that would have most likely resulted in some collateral damage. No
but in all seriousness, tumor lady (or tripple lip; ninety lady) is a
nice person, she just has a cold black heart and a evil disposition. Eventually,
nick was nice enough to give me some change to purchase a twix bar from
the vending machine. So I go up to it and insert the change. I glance
at the slot where the twix bar is. I keyed in the little code so I could
get my candy bar. I looked back through the glass only to find the wrong
coil turning. "No! No! No! Aw jesus christ NO!" It was too late.
For my mistake I was awarded no candy bar, because that particular slot
was empty. This reminds me of what the great Confucius said once, "He
who cannot control candy bar vending machine, cannot control life."
Well thanks Confucius, you fuck. Looks like I'm screwed!! |
Sun, November 9, 2003: This update just flows
like a river winding. Read on. |
I saw acid man in berwyn I think, so I beeped my horn
at him. Oh god I just know he'll exact his revenge... I'm soo screwed.
Dude.. Dave Attel is such a good stand
up comic. His show is okay but I was watching comedy central presents
a few nights ago and he was on. I almost lost bladder control... but thats
a different story.
Let's see.. friday was a half day.
I got my eat on at bravo w/girls and briton. oh right....... jeremy had
to come along too. At some points I want to punch him out. other times
I laugh at his jokes... but not too often! So I watched memento and some
movie w/john cussack or whatever.
I wish I could say that today was
not uninteresting. Basically I sat there, with drool slowly trickling
out of my mouth, just hoping for an ice cream truck, the world fair, the
ringling brothers, a parade, a pokémon challenger or SOMETHING
to go by... but it never did.. And like, several years ago you couldn't
get away from the challenges those pokémon weiner kids brought.
Speaking of challenges.. I was at
annie's house w/a few other people and annie's brother's friends were
also there. I walked inside and saw a gamecube and I said to one of his
friends that happened to be walking by, "Dude
does that have smash brothers on it?"
"Yeah it does! I'm really good at that game" "NO
way! I could TOTALLY kick your ass in that game." "Let's
find out!" So the game was set up. For those few minutes I
blocked out everything else in this horrid world for my fighting fantasies
to come alive. "YEAHHH ROCK ON!!"
"Silence, voice in my head!" I
said. The 10th grade boy looked at me puzzled but I was already back in
the game. Before he knew all of his hopes, dreams and aspirations were
put in a paper shredder, shat on and tossed out of a fast moving vehical
into some sort of parallel dimension full of endless pain and a room with
a moose. I used all of the methods on this poor sap that I had to use
on kyle in that game. Rapid electric attack, endless head butting, thunderbolts
and even... yes... the ultimate combo.......... dot com. So he lost and
I won. I basked in my glory as he walked away in shame. The door behind
him closed and I heard a gunshot. I never did see the kid again. Strange.
I got in a real life battle of sorts
with skyler later on. everything was going fine until I did some sort
of jump kick and I hit her on the knee with my shin. while her knee went
undamaged I grabbed my shin in pain. I eventually walked it off though...
I had no choice but to walk it off.
Did you know that this is the last
year of high school?? I'm not too worried about college or grades or anything
(not that I won't be serious about it) but I am serious about fun! This
is the last chance to get to know my friends any better than I do and
share experiances with them. That may sound gay but whatever it's true.
Yes, this is the last chance for us all. How will you use your
time? |
Thu, November 6, 2003: I feel ways about things.
|
It seems like recently whenever I'm talking to just
one person theres always something I want to say but I can't for some
reason. And it can really apply to anyone, anywhere, with anything.
once upon a time at jake hiller's house (the morning after a simply spledid get-together) I drew this picture! Oh my god.. chaz was freaking running
along the wall in the breezeway. It was cool the first few times but it
wore off when all these people wear watching and chaz was getting embarrassed.
Holy crap. So I'm sitting here next
to the computer trying to take notes for art history. I turn on itunes,
put it on random and then turn on the visualizations. I put down like...
two notes, glance at the screen and continue watching it for the next
ten minutes. It was the strangest thing. I was dazzled by the colors,
which put me into some sort of trance in which I couldn't look away. Okay
maybe it wasn't 10 minutes, it sure as heck fire was a good amount of
time. now I sound like I'm "Tripping" (ha.. trippin') on lsd.
(not lcd you fo') K bye. |
Wed, November 5, 2003: bad shitty |
I went to see The Matrix: Revolutions with my buddies
today. Opening day might I add. Okay so we go to the theator in Frazier.
Everyone gets tickets EXCEPT for jake and zach. Jake is too young and
zach doesn't have any ID. They had to get other people to buy the tickets
for them. Duuuuude... freakin'... matrix. yeah man. This is how it ended,
okay? They're sitting in central park and they see the sunset over the
city. Y.. yeah. Thats what happens. During the opening previews they showed
this movie, I think it was called Three Fast, Three Furious... or something
like that. They said: Life begins at 150mph! That didn't make much sense...
After the movie it was POURING. We're all at the door and we knew we had
to bolt. 1, 2, 3 go! We run to the car and nick is all "Yeah I'm
slow" so me, chaz and kyle are dancing around the car dodging raindrops,
waiting for him to get there. There was much puddle driving though, with
encited rejoicing. |
Tue, November 4, 2003: I hate donkeys |

I have a recommendation: If you're bored or simply
are trying to procrastinate (I don't know why you'd want to do that) go
to my guestbook. Oh yes, I'm sure you've been there before... but! Where
it says "page 1 of 181" or whatever, type in 181 (or what ever
the last page is) and read alllll the way up to now. Some of the stuff
in there is REALLY funny. especially the stuff my friend kyle wrote.
I just decided to do the concentration
piece thats due next week. I did a hyper realistic (what a buzz word)
picture of my face in a mirror with colored pencil. The hardest part now
is putting the rest of the composition in without fugging it up in nyah.
Don't worry, I won't put current mood
up there again. I just felt like mocking. Oh and I do make that face when
I mock... it turns yellow and everything. But basically, theres no point
to put current mood cause if you're reading this then you should be able
to judge my mood just by that. Oh and the subjects... those are just for
sillyness and fun. |
Mon, November 3, 2003: I like donkeys |
Man... how am I supposed to enjoy my mary jane (candy)
when that name has been taited by hippies?
This is looking like a long update.
It isn't really though... it just looks like it. Yeah, well go ahead and
read. But first, I just wonder how many people read this site. I can think
of at least 4 that I think look at it regualarly. Then there are those
people who come here every once in a while who have the site burried in
their favorites somewhere. And then there are those stalker people. I
don't know if I have any of those but I would be flattered if I did. Am
I worthy of stalking? Is there anything about me that would make someone
I don't know aspire to read my website every day? Eh... I doubt it.
Here are some fun rocko quotes
(the diferent colors represent different situations:
Mr. Bighead: "My name is Ed Bighead" Crowd: "Hi Ed!" Mr. Bighead: "...and I have a meatball problem." (applause from crowd) Ed: (said non enthusiastically) Ed bed, mo med, banana manna fo fed. People in office meeting: (said non enthusiastically) Eeeddd. Ninaven: Ninaven, bo vinaven, fee fi fo FARNAK! ...... wait.... no, thats not right, n.. Boss: YOU'RE FIRED! Ninaven: NOOOOOO!!!!!! (Ninaven is ejected from his seat into the sky) Rocko: Heffer, you can't feed spunkey a fathead's cheese-chewable tablet! Heffer: Well why not? Rocko: Remember the party at my aunt's last year? Someone fed the cat a cheese-chewable tablet. (shows Heffer's hand feeding the cat a tablet) Heffer: And....? Rocko: Well five minutes later... it exploded! (shows cat exploding in thought bubble) Heffer: (points to rabbit in thought bubble) Who's that guy? I set up itunes on my computer to
play every song in shuffle (plays a random song from the list). Then I
made a playlist that once a song is played it is taken off the playlist
automatically. (pretty cool huh? it's called a 'smart playlist') This
way I HAVE to listen to every song I have.

Sun, November 2, 2003: Rocko: "Tirdey
was..................................... bird." Filbert: "Oh
god that was beautiful!" |

It seems like with every day that passes I appreciate
my childhood cartoons more and more. For a long time, having my own cartoon
show was my dream job.
okay... friday: basically we sit around
for a good while, decide that trick or treating is not really worth it
and we go to ryan boswell's party. that was pretty fun. for a short while
I was the life of the party drawing the pictures on the computer.... but
people soon lost interest and decided to go dancing or play pool or something.
for the most part I just sat there on the couch chugging sodas every once
in a while and watching the matrix w/out volume. funny thing is... I knew
what everyone in the movie was saying anyway so it made no difference.
Saturday I hung out with kyle all
day. it was one of those meah days. just sitting around watching the 60
so channels of shit that cable tv has to offer. eventually some more people
(aka, zach, nick, jake) came over and we did the same thing. then we went
to starbucks is paoli and skyler and maura joined us. we sat and chewed
the fat for a good amount of time then left.
My aunt gave me a medium sized, plastic
baggie full of candy. I was psyched.
Looks like another one of those lazy
sundays. it will be nice to have a good day to myself to think though. |

Sept 1: Wait its september already? I spent my crappy labor day at work. Today I got payed 1 1/2 times more to do 1/2 the amount of work. For some reason there were no assignments for today so I just walked around the store for the whole time. Tuesday next week is the last day of summer before school. How will you spend you're last day? Who haven't you seen for the past 3 months? How many freshman will you just have to continuously beat until death ensues? Man Bowling for Columbine was such a good movie. Wow, see that... now. I just remembered a funny conversation from a few days ago at blockbuster: Some lady (to her friend and/or lesbian lover): Ooo, Punch Drunk Love. I heard that was a good movie. Me (to kyle): Kyle I hear this movie is good. (points to Punch Drunk Love) Lady (to me): Oh you've seen it? It's good? Me (to her): No I was just basing that off of what you said. |
| Aug 30: Yeah we went to the quarry near kyle's house few days ago. That was fun. Well today a few people went again. I just jumped in the water and started swinmming for the cliff when a man came walking down the hill. He wasn't mean but told us not to come cause it's tresspassing and such. Man I was so pissed today to hear a cover of a steve miller band song in R&B style. Blarsh. My dinner break today wasn't too bad. thanks for visiting guys |
Aug 24: Ah soon enough the computer that I've worked so moderately hard for will come in. Then I can get off this poopey crap crap. Getting all the files to the other computer will be a pain in the ass though... seeing as my cd burner doesn't work. Should I redesign this site..... ag... again? Yeah I will eventually. |
| Aug 18: Oh my god I was just watching real tv a few hours ago... this guy was skateboarding and he attempted to grind a rail down some stairs.. BUT!!! he failed. His board came out from under him, he smashed his balls on the rail (oh it gets worse) and then hits the stairs with his arm extended. His arm bends the complete wrong way on impact and he sits up with a blood curdling scream with his arm bent the wrong way. That was one of the worst wipe outs I've ever seen. The host was like, "Well thats not 'totally radical.'" or something like that. |
| Aug 18: radiohead concert last night. We took the train into philly (all the while talking about homeless people and vomiting). Instead of walking down s. street to the magical ferry that grants us our wish of crossing the river, we took another train to it. We go to a booth to get tokens and then some homeless guy comes outta nowhere, talks to mike and all the sudden we are following this wise sage. Everyone except mike has no idea where we are going and why we're following a homeless guy. In the end we got a better deal on the tokens. Of course the guy finds us later and the only way to get rid of him is to pay him money. We get to the ferry and wait in a long line to get on while these guys try to sell us t-shirts the break after a day. we missed the opening bands. radiohead comes out, plays a few songs and goes. The show wasn't long enough. They have too many great songs they could've played. But it was still awesome. |
| Aug 17: Dontcha hate it when you have so much on your mind but cannot express it verbally or in writing? Damn. There are things I want to say but I don't know how to! |
| Aug 15: What does working 4-10 on a friday night get me? Well, besides money, nothing really. Now all you kids are out drinking and having sex with each other and stuff. Damn you all to heck!! |
| Aug 15: I was just reminded of the impending school year. To think, we are going to be seniors. To think, I began this stupid website when I was a sophomore! Speaking of which, junior year rocked the socks off of sophomore year. Obviously, some people totally disagree with me. Junior year, I wasn't tied down, I got good grades and made it through the "hardest year" of high school. Definitely not the hardest though. |
| Aug 12: Man sometimes I'm on a roll with online conversations. Problem is... no one seems to understand all my hidden jokes in the conversations. The only reason why is the whole time lapse and my inability to put more verbal emphases on certain words. God if only someone could keep up with my idiocy instead of being slightly confused. If you are e-stalking me by reading my website then totally "aim me". peterickson86 |
| Aug 9: I'm back from the outer banks. Tons o' fun. Me and kyle got in some extreme boarding, extreme fire on the beach building, extreme smores, extreme wave running and extreme watching the price is right... along with some more stuff. I found my PSSA scores in the mail when I got home. In the letter it said that if any part of the pssa that wasn't above the average score for the state the student would have to take the pssa class... One part of my reading scores... was EXACTLY average. Everything else was above. That's why I got my schedule, they couldn't find space for the class. Well my mom isn't making me take it anyway so I can just drop the class. |
| July 30: O' Brother Where Art Thou? Good movie yesiree. Huh! Soon I will write a review for that horrible piece of trash of a movie: Spy Kids 3D. Apparently 2 dimensions just weren't good enough. |
| July 26: Exactly one week from now I should be sitting on the beach enjoying myself. (By basking in the sun of course... you sick fuck). Kyle's gonna come with me so that should add to the enjoyment. Theres this one guy at work thats cool. When he sees you he'll either say one of two things: "'Hey Buddy!'...or.... 'I thought I smelled shit!'" Hehe. I work 2-10 on monday, wednesday and thursday. Someone come comfort my angst. |
July 25: Yes as it says above, I went to six flags yesterday with kyle chaz and todd (my church drove us there) Dear lord! What a bunch of horrid people I had to wait in line with! (not my friends... the bad people) It's like the people of new jersey spawn in places such as...
|
| We waited in line for superman: ultimate letdown for about an hour and 15 minutes. We were 4-6 tram fulls away when the loud speaker announced there were technical difficulties. So I made a game to pass the time cause we were so close. "Hey chaz, time me for a minute and see how many times I can groan! Okay... Go! Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh Ugh.. ect." (I didn't say 'ect.') The people behind us had enough and left. Overakk though, the trip was fun and educational. |
| July 21: Man I always smell after work. ALWAYS. Yeah. um. whats more to say? |
| July 19: Unbelievable. This girl that I worked with at cvs just started working at walgreens. Ya know the one that screamed at me and threatoned to beat the shit outta me (which she very well couldn't). Her name is Jillian. I wonder if she remembers? |
| July 17: I found out that my brother is now going to come home for ten days in august. That'll be sweet. He's gonna come to the radiohead concert too maybe. |
| July 15: Uh oh!! Someone wrote another review! Kapow! Pssh! Bang! |
| July 14: It's funny when guys come into buy condoms. They're all discrete and always want a bag, even if thats all they have. This one guy bought some and as I rung him up he said, "Yes, I am going to put this on my penis and insert it into a vagina. Do you have a problem with that?" "No sir, not at all." The end. |
| July 13: I took a visit to gay robot pirate island today. I left the homoerotic island dissapointed. |
| July 11: I upload sparingly cause for I've been playing battlefield 1942 a lot on the computer and nothing really interesting has happened recently.I did get written up at work last night, for no good reason at all. I was quite angry. |
| July 8: I finally uploaded this new design. Like it? Anyway. Um. poot! |
| July 5: Bridgejumping? Fun as always. Fireworks? Explosive. I told some kids that if they catched the embers that fell from the sky then their wishes would be granted. So they started running around trying to catch them and I later hear their dad yelling at them to stop. I started dancing like a moron during the grand finale. |
| July 3: Man I hope I can get off for tommorow. I do get payed time and a half (get pay of 9 hours for working 6 hours) but c'mon it's independence day. |
| June 30: I love those animal attack shows when they make the fake sound effects. Since when does a bison make the sound that a buffalo would make?! huh?! Yeah I saw charlies angels and 28 days later. The second movie I mentioned is far better than the first. |
| June 27: Whats funnier than a mentally retarded lawyer with a brief case full of fudge? nothing!! Oh god what have I eaten? I've had diareah every hour since I woke up. It's horrible. Thats like 5 or six times by now. Woe is me! |
June 26: Been a long time, long time. I hurt my toe. The toenails off, well almost off. Now walking sucks. Man I saw this animatrix dvd. wow so good. well most of it at least. I don't know about this computer I'm using. I don't know if I can handle what its doing to me for much longer. what a dumb update. just random thoughts in no particular order. sigh. well you're not getting anything better than that tonight. |
| June 22: Fuck! Those bastards found a way to put ads on the site!! Man the hulk is a terrible movie. Go to the reviews section! I was at the creek near kyles house a few days ago. Wow. The water was really high and fast cause of the rain. We tried tubing down in but kyle got stuck behind some bushes in the water so we decided to stop. Yesterday I went to emory heimarks memorial service. I've never been to one of those before so I didn't know what to expect. It was interesting/sad. |
| June 21: Haven't updated but have been making updates. Strange. Well I'm sorta redesigning. Basically I made new sections on the left so it would be a little more organized I guess. I also put in a new page for reviews!! Check it out! Theres not much there now though. |
| June 19: Official last day of school. Man it's kinda sad. There's this funny, skinny, asian kid named joe lee (he made some of the great animations on my site) that has moved or will move. He wasn't in school today so I guess that means I'll never see him again. The last time I saw him was at lunch on friday and we didn't make any official "goodbyes" cause I assumed I'd see him again. Well joe if you read this now then have fun riding your bike through the everglades of the south! It's been a good run with you the last few years. |
| June 18: Man. I don't understand this all. parents shouldn't have to bury their child. |
June 18: Oh wow I can already feel all of the information I learned this school year oozing out through my ears. |
| June 16: Thank you kyle for making burgers, thank you jake for having a pool for us to jump in, thank you frolf for having a weird name and uhh.... thank everyone else for like.. being alive and shit. |
| June 15: Okay the exam I'm worried about is math. But who am I to complain? I brought this upon myself... |
| June 14: I smell cause for I've been done working all day.10am-7pm. Fwew. I'm ready to do stuff now cause it's still light out. I was freakin hot today! Even being cooped up in the store it was still hot. I chafed my neck at least 30 times. Yeah so it's 7:15 now. I'm hungry. |

| June 10: Yeah. I went to the graduation. We blew the horns. Some guy took em away. Listened to hail to the thief. I dunno. When I heard most of the radiohead songs I liked them right away. The lirics might be good (I haven't really read them up) but the music... It just doesn't have the right effect. Maybe I need to listen to it a few more times. |
|
|
| June 4: God damn! Okay.. I got this little hand pellot gun the other day. The thing is fucking sweet cause you can press the button and the clip falls out and everything. So I have it in my pocket and I jump and it falls out and part of it breaks. Luckily it wasn't very esential so it still works. Then today I'm fooling around with the clip and it hits the carpeted floor. A piece of it got jammed inside so it makes it hard to load and unload (and vice versa... wait..) So I try cutting the piece out with a box cutter and I slice my index finger open instead! Then I try again when I get home and I slice open my thumb! Ah god! |
| June 2: Man I'm very dissapointed with the senior class this year. I was looking at the year book and they had the shittest, crappest, crappy quotes ever. They were stupid things like, "I'm so grateful for all the help I got from my friends and family." and "Let your dreams guide you into the paths of the future..." or some stupid crap like that. Man I'm gonna make them regret having a quote section.. of course, I need a good quote thats border line offensive and just makes it into the yearbook. God I was excited to see these too! Oh yeah and if anyone wants their yearbook signed, I'll most likely draw cartoons in it K? Oh by the way, I didn't buy a yearbook. Maybe next year. |
| June 1: Oh my shit it's june! Yeah. What's funnier than three juniors in high school going to the Lizzie Mcguire movie? Three high school juniors sneaking in two chickens, 12 rolls of bread, 12 cans of soda and a bag of cookies into the movie, and eating it during the movie. Thats what! And thats exactly what me kyle and chaz did today. Man that movie was baaaaaaaad. |
| May 31: God.. I had to go 6 hours and 15 minutes to go up to Hicksville, PA to see my couisin get married. Then today do the same trip in reverse. I drove half the way each way. Man... when you're driving for such a long time and not really talking you can just sit there and think about stuff. Yeah man. The whole way home it rained, rain down, c'mon rain down on me... right.... I listened to much music each way. Now it's saturday night. I got this email from someone I don't know, but I can't say what it said cause it says not to. So for fun I won't tell anyone. Oh do you want to know what it was? Well, maybe you got the email too! Check your school email! But if not.... then I'll never end your torment and never tell!! Ha, ha, ha, ect. |
May 28: Is it wrong to bite one's toenails? Man this riply's believe it or not show is freakin retarded. Every episode is the same damn thing. "Some woman in a bikini thought her bathing suit wasn't enough! So she used whipped cream!........ EXTREME!!!" I can believe that. They should call the show: Riply's is it retarded or not? Well okay thats a shameful title but you get the jist of it right? I'm only saying this cause I'm listening to the tube in the backround as I type right now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, and now, ..... and... ect. |
| May 27: Muhh... I gotta get something other than a crew cut.. I started with a bowl cut from like all of elementary school throughout middle school. Then one day I got a different cut. Then a few years later I got my head shaved. Anywho... theres this game: Imagine tennis... and rugby together for the first time in years! But with a twist!! Rugby-Tennis (tentative title) involves the kicking of a rugby ball on a tennis court with the relaxed rules of tennis! Oh yeah! |
| May 24: Wow work today.. reah. Pretty much, I came in at 2pm brought up stocked some food, played gameboy advance for at least an hour and a half and then did minimal amounts of work until about 9:20pm (which was early cause there wasn't much to be done). Oh yeah throw a half hour break in the somewhere. |
May 23: Have you ever been driving alone on a rainy night listening to music? It's sweet. Have you ever waited in the car in the garage for an amazing song to finish? It's sweet. |
| May 23: Oh god just a few more freaking weeks... Then I'll be out of this god damned school full of hippies. Okay.. .it's not really full of hippies. This so called "spring fever" is killing me. Grade wise and um happiness wise. I work once again today. I get a pay check every two weeks or something like that and I get $304 before taxes. Whoa man. If I were to work the same amount of hours per week throughout the entire summer I'd get more than $2,100 for the whole summer. Of course, that doesn't take in to effect that I'm in africa for 3 weeks (which detracts hours) and that there's no school (which can potentially mean a lot more hours). Oh yeah, that also doesn't include tax and buying movie tickets and soft drinks and prostitutes and such. |
| May 20: In almost 8 months I'll be 18. That means that I will be able to vote, be drafted in the military, buy cigarettes, buy pornography, own a credit card, call 1-800 #'s and all sorts of stuff. Oh yeah, I'll also most importantly be considered a legal adult. After that is 21 for alcohol and 25 to rent a car. Then nothing really happens for a while until I'm 65 and I attempt to receive social security but can't because my parents generation got the rest of it. Ouy, there are things that must be done before I graduate next year. Did I mention that I got a dreaded physical today? Yep. The doctor squeezed my balls like grapes. |
May 18: So yesterday I saw The Matix Reloaded with kyle. Wow. They introduced a lot of new stuff in that movie. Which can make it bad cause there's way too much to keep track of. I think once I see the next one that comes out in the fall then it'd make a little more sense. Afterwards I went to the after prom party. That was fun. Making crazy money on black jack and such. I didn't win any prizes but thats mainly because I gave all my stuff away in the end. yeah.. it was fun. |
May 16: So I completed my third day of Walgreen's today. I just have to say that it's a lot better than CVS and I'm glad I switched. I get the same pay and everything. The job is a lot easier and theres this little conveyear belt that goes from up from the downstairs stock room. Pretty sweet.... |
| May 11: I was doing homework in my room and chris came in and started screwing around with my stuff. Then he took my CD player and ran off with it. I argued with him about how he can't just take stuff and then he brought up the point that I was wearing his shirt and pants (which I was). So I took them off right there, threw em at him and he gave me the CD player back... I probobly would've let him borrow it if he just asked.... |
| May 10: Well I went to Walgreens and inquired about the job. The manager looked up the results for the drug test and then gave me my hours. It was that simple. So I start on wednesday. Whoa cool. these boxey thingeys are all translucent! How'd I do that?! Tee hee. Yeah so my brother Steve called this morning from africa. He was telling me the stuff we're gonna do when we go to visit him next month. Wow.. it's going to be incredible. I'll get to see victoria falls (the biggest falls... ever!) and Mt. Kilimanjaro, the biggest mountain in africa surrounded by forest and flatness. I've seen pictures of the mountain cause my mom used to live near it. Yeah this trip is also a thing for my mom to revisit her past and all... I just know she's going to cry when we get to her old house or whatever. So Steve is living with the headman of a village. They treat him so highly. But the headman (the guy right below the chief) was accused of witchcraft by the villagers. They claimed that he turns invisible during the night and flies around killing animals and children. So the villagers tried to kill him but he ran away to get the local police (whom you have to bribe to help you.) I can't wait to go there. |
| May 9: I'm trying a completely new site design. I broke free from the frames and such. As you can see, my favorite color is green. Hope the new design is much more interesting. |
| May. 8 (the aftermath!!!): OH MY SHIT! Tonight was how should I say... fun? Yeah so we went to old country buffet and ATE. Klein was freaking gorging! So towards the end of the meal we're talking about this whole getting sick and puking on todd and nick. They weren't pleased with that. So we go outside and I vomit in the parking lot, as did kyle and chaz. Then we go to BJs (blowjobs) and play tag with the rugby ball until we decide it's time to leave. Good night... it was. |
| May. 8: Oh snap. I just realized that I don't need to put the periods after may cause may is the full name of the oonth. Last night I saw this movie w/my pals called Ringu. It's basically The Ring except all japanese and shit. Oh yeah the japanese people actually made the movie first and the americans were 'inspired' to rip it off. I did suck though. Imagine eating not very much for the day (I mean less than normal) and neglecting an afternoon snack. Sound crazy? Well you just wait. Now, imagine that there was a reason for such an act, imagine you are going to an all you can eat BUFFET!! Well thats what I'm gonna freakin do tonight. |
| May. 5: Cinco de mayo! Wow time has sure slipped into the future. Sorry steve miller I stole your lyric. But seriously. Schools almost over once again. I can still remember the events of exactly one year ago like they were yesterday... (shudder) No, but sersiously folks. This year surpasses last year in many respects. |
| May. 4: Whats the deal with the X-women being so hot? Eh? Any takers? Yeah I saw X2 last night. It was sweet. I definitely would want to be Wolverine (minus the horrifying past). I mean c'mon, this guy took a bullet straight to the forehead! The wound healed and the bullet fell out. Super healing powers and then the indestructable metal claws makes him KEY! He even used his one claw as a key to turn on a car. Before the movie we played rugby. No one (except the people on the team) really knew how to play. (including me) I'm sure if I knew what to do it'd be lot's o' fun. |
| May. 2: Man yesterday (thursday) was a not so good day. I had to drive allllll the way down to this walgreen's in god knows what town to pick up drug test forms. See, the walgreen's in Paoli didn't have any forms and the closest walgreen's is in the place I just stated. So it wouldn't have been so bad if there wasn't this detour that completly through me off at some point. I finally found my way back on the right track after a while and then got to traffic. There were at least 100 cars (no joke!) waiting for one stupid red light. Every time it turned green only about 10 cars got through. I didn't know this about the light until a little while cause the road was curved and there were quite a few trees. So after about 1 hr and 15 minutes total journey I made it. So today I took the form into the drug test place and recall myself 'emptying the tank' right when I got home from school. "Oh shit!" I exclaimed. I BARELY filled the required amount up. And I'm not even sure if I got enough in. I was standing in the bathroom for nearly 10 minutes trying to force it out. Oh yeah and zach klein had a suprise birthday party tonight and it was fun. |
Apr. 30: I was looking around my house for construction paper for a poster for history class. Too many "fors". Anywho.. I found some old journals from elementary school. No wonder they sent me to the summer reading program... this is the only way for me to find out now what was going on in that head back then. here are my favorites:
| "P.u. it's gronud hog day!" Well what do you know it's groud hog day and phill saw his shadow. how exsiting it is. Its kind of like theres no witer to turn spring. oh well the wheather must not want to change. P.S. p.u. whats that smell? something smelly is going hear.

Josh hit a home run, and once he got to first base something landed in the out fildm and then Josh disaperd, so Chris came to see what is the matter. Josh was nowhere to be seen, "huu, where is he"? said Chris, so he went to first base and he disaperd to.

Apr. 28: Yeah I'm working on a new flash movie right now. It's gonna be much better than the last one about the sock puppet. It'll include voice acting this time... with my voice! It'll probobly be done by next week depending if I work on it much. The report card came in. The results are not great but not bad. I actually passed the 1st marking period of health II somehow. Yeah it's an easy class... if you actually write the few papers you have to do... which I only did one of and didn't even fulfill the requirements of that.
Apr. 27: Wow the Flaming lips concert was awesome. Okay so me, kyle, chaz, jake and todd take the train to market east station and walk to s. street from there. We get pizza and eat beside the delaware. Then we get a cab to go to the electric factory. Inside the cab I sat in shotgun with everyone else in the back. At some point I said to the taxi driver, "So... uh have you ever played crazy taxi?" "Crazy taxi?.. naw man, naw." "Oh well it's an arcade game. It's really fun. You can drive as fast as you want and you have to race the clock." "Oh yeah?.." He didn't really know what I was talking about. So we're outside the electric factory waiting in line and we see this homeless guy talking to some people in front of us. I look at chaz and could tell he had some sort of plan with this guy and he was pysched. So the homeless guy comes up and chaz puts a dollar in his hat. At the point to guy just started talking and talking. He was saying stuff like, "Ya man, you tink phillys the place you gotta be..? You'd not be thinkn' that if ya'll went to norleans. Wit the mardi gras an' eryting." Then chaz just simply said "Gumbo." while the guy was talking. That made him all excited for some reason and he began talking about gumbo and cornbread. Then, somehow the guy got on some thing about putting all this beer and ice in a bathtub in a hotel room..? Long story short, the guy was crazy. So we're in the factory and I see eric lewis and lloyd cargo in these polar bear outfits, jon carreli, alex smith, hoyt bangs, toby butler, guy from my health class and dave carlson. (there were more people I saw there from school but I forget who). The opening bands weren't spectacular but the flaming lips were... well.. like a birthday party. It was great. Giant balloons, confetti thrown about, dancing people in animal costumes on the stage and a screen behind the band complete with japanese girls in gunfights, giant robots and this girl in only her pantis jumping around with maximum jiggalige. There was this girl in front of us who knew some of the guys in an opening band or something. Oh yeah and she was drunk. Oh yeah and she was also good looking. She would give random hugs and stare me straight in the eyes and then grab my gut and stuff like that. She was drunk. We left and took the train home. The end. Whew... long update.
Apr. 26: God... cvs... gone. Phew. I'm done working there but I did manage to write that I'm gone on the wall in the back room with a permanent marker. There are a few good people there but then again there are quite a few bad. (then theres the ones I don't care either way). So there are like five minutes left until it was time for my to time out. And it's freakin like 90 degrees in there! So I unzip the bottoms my convertable pants to make them shorts. Okay, so a few minutes later I go to the backroom to give my best. Then this fugly whore-lady named Karen Young (someone put a hit on her head...) was like, "Pete, did you come in with those shorts on?!"
"No, I just unzipped 'em. The rest is in my pocket." I said.
"Well you're gonna have to put them back on! You know the store policy blah blah blah...." She insisted.
"Well I'm leaving in 2 seconds so whatever, I'm not putting them back on."
So she strayed from that and then said, "..Well since this is your last day I'm gonna need your employee discount card."
"I don't have that with me right now..." (which is true. my dad was using it right then)
"Well I'm not going to give you your paycheck until you give it back." She replied.
"Can't give me my paycheck?!"
"Hey I'm just following the rules. Now I need your card."
"I'll get you the card!"
Gosh so I go up to the checkout and my dad just had the discount rung up and I got it from him so I could make my purchase. Then karen comes up and sees the card in my hand. She says, "So Pete... why'd you lie to me?"
"God.. I didn't lie. My dad was holding it. Now let me get my paycheck."
She handed it to me and say goodbye to everyone 'cept her and left. The end.
Apr. 25: My older brother called at 6:03 yesterday morning. It freakin woke me up but it was nice to talk to him for a few minutes before school. He was calling about getting a landrover to rent when we visit him in africa. Today I get this call from kyle and he's all, "My car's outta gas! Yikes!" and I'm all, "Don't pop blood vessel dude!" okay well I'm paraphasing. But anyway, he parked up near my house with the remaining fumes in the tank and we got him some gas and he went on his way.
Apr. 23: Oh SHIIIIIIT! Pikmin 2?! I mean c'mon man. They fixed the problem about time limits!! I'm gonna get this game and ejaculate all over it! Those pikmin are so lazy!!! I'm gonna toss them around and whip them!! Oh dude. The funny thing is, is that some people must have no idea what pikmin is and why I'm acting this way.
| Apr. 22: Yeah so today I'm in history and chaz tears off part of his book cover and shows it to me. I see this stick figure with a large ass farting on another stick figure. The fart cloud eats away the guys face. Whoa man... today at aroud 4:30 I was lay down in bed. Around 2 1/2 hrs. later I wake up. My mom wakes me up and I see the clock thinking it was morning. She asked me if I was sick and she felt my head. I thought I was gonna miss school! Then I realized my mistake and did my homework. I hate my life... well...okay, not really. | ![]() |
Apr. 21: My last day of work is saturday. Wow. Practically everyone at work came up asking if I was really quitting. I feel loved... I made my good-byes via hugs and handshakes. Oh my shit! There's this commercial on tv thats so ridiculous that its funny! Okay so theres this guy that has a jumpey voice talking about how trident has long lasting flavor or whatever and he points to a chart with a red arrow going up to prove the longevity of it's flavor. THEN.. you see a squirell enter his pant leg and moments later you hear a crisp bite as the rodent bites his testicles!!! Then he grabs them and screams!!! OH MY GOD THATS SO GREAT!!!!
Apr. 20: I'm 17 and my mom made me an easter basket... not that I'm complaining. Whoa man... 4/20 let's go smoke weed man... god damn hippies. Oh yeah... one more thing. On wednesday I put a note in this envelope at work for the manager to see. The next day I work (yesterday) he says, "Pete, I saw the note." (my nametag reads 'pete') "Oh yeah," I replied. "Yeah. So... do you have any reason for quitting?" "Well. To be honost, I never got the raise I should've gotten at least 6 months ago." "Okay." He says and walks off. Geez.. what a jerk. He knowingly doesn't give me a raise. Gives me the same bs response each time I ask him and then I leave and he feigns no compasion. I gotta make sure to tell him about his jerkdom before the 26th (my last day).
Apr. 19: Went to mall; checked out chicks; left.
Apr. 16: Yeah I quat today. Damnit... I just did my history homework and then realized that I did the questions on the wrong pages. So now I have to do the whole thing over again. DONKEY FUCK HELL SHIT DAMN COCKSUCKING..... damn.
Apr. 15: Man I'm gonna drop cvs like a sack of hot potatoes. That place went from a really fun job with lots of people that I actually enjoyed going to, (who'da thnuk that?!) to never've gotten a raise and all cool people are gone/leaving. It all started in the beginning of '02 when my homosexual (yet amazing) manager... like THE manager in charge... left. I wonder if I knew at the time he was gay if it would've changed my opinion on him. Anywho, many great people have worked there but they fell into some sort of worm hole that transports them to a parallel dimension full of chaos. But, I just went to Wallgreen's today (CVS's biggest rival) and filled out an application. Hopefully I'll get hired and I'm definatly not going for anything less than $7 an hour cause that would cancel out part of my reason for leaving (a less experienced worker by the name of dave platt got a raise up to $7.50, even though he's only been there since the summer started). Whether or not that is true doesn't matter because I still should've gotten a raise after a year and a half of working.
Apr. 13: Man whats with me and not doing homework? I have to find all these vocab words from frankenstein and make note cards and such. It's not a hard assignment it's just gonna take a while and it would have been better if I started when it was assigned like 2 weeks ago... by the way, I made a little movie in flash with a sock puppet. As you can see I'm still learning, but they'll get better in the future.
Apr. 10: Aw shit yeah. I've missed three days of psychology starring mr. parker with these pssas. God that class... he stands there and does this the whole time.
Apr. 8: Well spring break has come to a close. The first half some contractors started fixing up the bathrooms so they'd be more fun to poop in or whatever by waking me up at 8:20 with their racket. On wednesday I went to kyle's and stayed til today (tues) cause my parents went to arizona with my dad's company. The second half was definately more eventful. One day I went to the bathroom to shave and glanced at kyle in the other bathroom. He turned around with a strange look on his face and with his hair all combed back. "Looks great." I said. Well I looked back at him and realized that he didn't actuclly comb it back, he cut it. So I shaved the rest off for him cause I'm such a nice guy. Despite many bad movies (ie; The Core, The Hunted, Texas Chainsaw Massacre...) spring break was great.
| Apr. 2: A couple of days ago me and my cronies went to see "The Core" knowing it would be bad. The predictable heroic deaths brought a tier or two to mine eyes. Apparently, our government's enemies built a weapon that could generate all sorts of seismic activities and such. Keep in mind all our enemies nowadays would not be able to afford such a large piece of weaponry. So the US government decides to build their own to show how much better we are. Somehow, this new megaweapon slowed down the rotation of magma and such in the earth's core. The only solution, of course, is nuclear warheads. A group of people went to the center of the earth in a invulnerable super penis shaped craft with lasers in front used to cut through the earth's crust. Of course, the russian guy with a wife and kids, the black guy who built the ship and the arrogant government guy all died heroic deaths in the magma. Oh yeah, and another guy died from a rock hitting his head and falling in lava. |
You'll notice the orange section of this model isn't moving. We must use nukes to get it going. |
| Mar. 29: Whenever I work just as I'm leaving a ton of customers come in and hold me up at the register for about 15 minutes. Those extra 15 minutes of work are the worst cause I know that the manager won't override it or whatever and pay me the extra 1.75 of whatever that I earned by being there. I know it's not very much money at all but when I look at my paycheck each week and see 9.8 hrs when I come in late but never 10.2 hrs when I leave late it just bothers me. (I work 10 hrs per week). Another thing that bothers me is this movie. It was sooo bad. | ![]() |
Mar. 26: Ohh... ahhh.... ohhooooh.... heh heh heh.....
| Mar. 24: douche bag

| Mar. 23: I just saw this movie called: "Riki-Oh!: The Story of Ricki" ...or something like that. It was made in Japan and then dubbed over in english. It was ultra funny and horribly violent. Who knew that you could punch someone in the head and make the top half come off in doing so? | ![]() |
| Mar. 20: Wow. So many freakin' anti-war protests going on. I know everyone already knows this but for rememberance sake if I were to look back on this. I've heard people excited that can't wait to watch iraq get bombed on TV. I've never been old enough to remember a war going on so this is new. I'd kinda like to go downtown to a demonstration and have a pro-war sign to see what all these people would do. Here's what it may look like. Click for larger. | ![]() |
Mar. 15: I got off work and had to get a card for my mom for her birthday or else she'd rip off my head. All the ones at my store sucked so I went to hallmark and briana helped me find something. Then I picked up the bike from being fixed. So now I'm at home with the bottom parts of my pant legs zipped off cause it's quite warm out. I'm gonna go on a freaking bikeride!
Mar. 14: Man if zelda isn't great I'm gonna kill evvvvvveryone.
Mar. 13: Do you ever just sit there and think about stuff? Amidst everything thats going on you just sit and do nothing for say 45 minutes. My middle bro chris got in a car accident this afternoon. He isn't hurt too bad but the car it totally totaled. Right now he's at the hospital getting an x-ray to see if he's broken.
Mar. 11: Yeah for some reason I decided not to go to the talent show. Today I'm interviewing a man who fought in the battle of the bulge in WWII for history class so that may be interesting.
| Mar. 5: Oh my... friday is going to be the high point of my life. Buddies for special olympics talent show (yeah I don't care for the name either) 4th and 5th periods. I'm hoping that it will be great material for comedy. Oh and if you click the image to the left you can see an image I found with google's image search! |
Mar. 4: Thing that I hate: When people use their hands to help them describe things; when people say "left hand turn" instead of "left turn". Yeah. I hate that.
Mar. 3: 3-3-03.... Coldplay.. phew.. good. Some crappy band came in before coldplay to try to ruin everyone's fun. For the time being that band did ruin my fun cause their music was so very bad. Then coldplay came out and everyone stood up and times were once again grand. Click for larger dudes.

Feb. 27: Yeah I'm gonna try making polls on the site for fun.
Feb. 24: My computer's internet is restored! Now I can waste hours of my life away!
Feb. 24: Aw man. This morning my dad woke me up at about 5:55 am and told me we have a two hour delay. So I turned off my alarm and went back to sleep. I woke up what seemed to be 2 hours later, looked at the clock and found that only 15 minutes had passed. I was so happy. Later today, right after 1st period, I was walking through the courtyard. I walked under the lone tree and found a bird lying (wait is it lying or laying....?) on the ground. I inspected it closer and found that it must have broken its neck falling from the tree. Pretty stupid way to die if you're a bird. So I picked it up by its tail feathers and hid it behind a bush in the courtyard. After homeroom I got a plastic bag from my homeroom teacher and put the bird in it. And now it is resting in peace in my book bag. Oh, and as I was making this update in the school library, I farted. I had the most generic fart ever. And a girl a few seats down heard it and smiled.
Feb. 20: The modem driver for my computer is being sent to my house in 3-5 days. That means that soon I'll be able to waste my life away online once again! Phew those 5 1/2 day weekends are great. I just got this zelda master quest happy smile bonus disk thingey for free for gamecube. The game is alright but I was puzzled when I found cows trapped halfway inside walls mooing for freedom.
Feb. 8: Aw man. Today me and kyle went sledding on this hill. The picture is not an exaggeration of the steepness of the hill. Anywho at the bottom the sled went out from under me and I smashed my feet into the ground. My spine coiled up like a slinkey and then sprung back out. Only my left foot hurts now. As you can see I am frowning because It hurts. Click for larger
Feb. 6: I keep hearing this god-damn squeak in the library. Nobody else notices its existence but me. I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.
Feb. 5: Whoa did you know that my site is over a year old. February 1st 2002 was when the madness started. Right now I have my computer but the modem driver is f-ed.
Jan. 31: Computer still f-ed up.. I never realized how much I used that blasted thing. Gasp.. I didn't mean it home PC. I still love you, even if you won't work. I've resorted to watching television more. Basically, I watch nick when spongebob comes on cause I LIKE that show. Nickelodeon has changed. They have these hosts now to announce the cartoons coming up and then for some reason they pour slime all over these kids before they show the cartoon, and the kids like it! The hosts are all oviously in love with each other and they only spend time hosting live kid shows to see each other. If anyone has 2nd period free on days 2, 4 and 6 then tell me, cause I'm very lonely. Very, very loonely. Oh so loolny. loony.
Jan. 28: This is an update from school. My home computer is
f-ed up so I can't use it. This is the first time I've even tried updating just
using html so this is new/exciting.
Jan. 25: Yeah so apparently my mom planned a suprise party under my nose. I pretty much thought there was gonna be one but then the suspicion died down after a while. I keep having these dreams where my oldest bro steve comes home from africa for some reason. Hmm. must mean something but I don't know what.
Jan. 24: bleh. I tried installing windows XP... didn't work out just right. on the bright side of life, I did pretty good on exams. My best one was history.
Jan. 23: The order of grades from highest to lowest based on my preconceived speculation are as follows; History > Chemistry > Brit lit > Algebra II. Man midterms week was EASY. The only test I'd say I had trouble with was math. After midterms the first two days we went out to lunch and stuff, hung out etc. It was a blast and a half.
| Jan: 22: On January 22, 1986 @ 7:30 pm Peter E. was born. In celebration of the anniversary of my birth, I made a gray balloon. | ![]() |
Jan 18: god those freakin livejournals have become so freakin
trendy. Yes, they do bother me, and yes, I do have the right to say that, and
yes, my website is FAR better than livejournals, and yes, I do realize my website
is better, and yes, livejournals are trendy... freakin. Now I sound all biast.
Oh that peter, he's "bashing" livejournals, I take personal offense
to that! Haha, aw man. Hate the livejournal, love the livejournaler.
| Jan 16: I found the fart machine in my jacket pocket today. So every once in a while I would just stand there, say nothing and keep pressing the fart button. Nobody thought it was funny. Towards the end of lunch I was trapped behind a door. I was not too happy and everyone who went by didn't help me. The door wasn't locked, oh no, I was being held in. Here is a diagram I drew to help one understand my dilemma. | ||

Jan 14 (again): after school this year has kinda sucked. I feel like I'm sick but not really. I just don't feel like doing anything except sitting at the computer. and I grow weary of that too. I seriously need to do something with myself. (other then the usual)
Jan 14: heh heh... I don't see why so many people stress over the midterms. As long as you're in school most of the time you'll be alright. It's just all watered down material from the year. Whatever grade you get on the marking period is less than or equal to the grade you'll get on the midterms. I'm not gonna study, I'll admit that.
Jan 13: Few nights ago I was at the computer and my dad was watching the football game. Every once in a while he would change the channel ( I guess during the commercials but I wasn't really watching). So at one point a commercial comes up and I'm listening from the computer. It went as follows, "Me and my bro eat a lot, but I'm the on who puts on the pounds!" then you hear this voice, "It's not your fault, it's your metabolism." So the ad continued with something on why you should buy their pills or whatever. I dunno, I just think that that was pretty ridiculous.
Jan 11: man. sometimes you don't realize what you're doing until someone tells you.
Jan 10: wow. I don't know what I'm gonna do this weekend. same ol' same ol' I guess. I just got a letter via air mail from my brother. Apparently, the less the letter weighs, the less it costs him to send it. So somehow he wrote the letter on the inside of the envelope. so it was pretty difficult to read.
Jan 9: I decided to redo my art site. It's part of the school server so I have basically no limit to how many images or whatever I upload to the place. (whereas on angelfire which I'm using for this site I only get 20 megs of space) Anywho, if you were to click that link up there you'd realize that it is a disgrace. To be fair to myself, that was the first site I've ever made and I've learned a little since.
Jan 8: Just talked to my oldest bro on the phone tonight. There was a one second delay on the phone going across the atlantic ocean and to zambia and all. He told me some stories. Steve, (my bro) asked an african boy in Swahili to get him mango. The boy got him one and when he saw that steve enjoyed it he got him 5 more the next day. Another time, avillager said to him (in Swahili I guess) that whenever a stray animal wondered into the village he (the villager) and his friends "would share it alive." My brother didn't quite understand what he meant by that at first. He later found out that they would literally tear the animal limb from limb for food, while it was living.
| Jan 7: Wow look at this thing. It makes my current gameboy obsolete. I mean, this modified version plays the same games it's just even smaller (with the same sized screen) and is backlit with rechargable batteries. I have a new reason to live. Today I saw a t-shirt that had this blood design that borna made and his name with something that said borna loves you. His fans wear t-shirts to show they are fans now I guess. | clickforlarger clickforlarger |
Jan 6: I got my art matted (sorta like being framed for those who are dumb) for the governer's school thingey. And today the art wil be delivered to be judged. Working today, man I'm gonna get subway I just know it... and I'm gonna love it. I think I'm only working with one other person tonight so I'll probobly end up on the register all night. (not that that is a bad thing seeing as christmas has passed and no one is ready to buy valentine's stuff.
Jan 5: I must have entered a time warp because yesterday I made a Jan 5 update when it was actually Jan 4. I must have updated twice in one day without knowing it.
Jan 5: Driving around and beeping at random people is fun. Driving through a miniature obstacle coarse filled with cones is fun. Hitting all of the cones and getting one stuck under that car and having to go under and remove it is fun. Driving around under the influence of alcoholic beverages is not fun, it's bad.
Jan 4: Yeah so I just figured out that about 11.76% of the people who apply for this thing get in. 200 out of about 1,700 people who apply get in. Work 7-12 tomorrow. Yeah, best shift ever, I got it.
Jan. 3: Today was better, sorta. I got on the bus this morning and was listening to my CD player and then the batteries died in the middle of a song. I did the macbeth play today. I was macbeth. I used blood capsules to make my hands bloody after murdering duncan (nick). Then I went over and talked to lady macbeth (chris). Overall it was alright.
Jan. 2: Oog. School sucked today. I woke up to my alarm and hopped right outta bed but I was still really tired. Today I had that feeling where you're so tired that when you close your eyes it burns. I hate that. And then I felt all shitty like I hadn't gotten a shower or anything (which I did). My mouth was dry all day and no matter how much water I drank it wouldn't go away. Then my ears kept getting all pressurized. I got my triptic done and found out that it wasn't due until sometime next week. And tonight my mom has been bugging me about getting an aplication done for this governer's school for the art. It's this thing that takes up 4 weeks of summer, basically like a college. You get free room and board and free lessons. BUT, it's hard to get into. In fact, it's very rare. For the entire state I think only 100 people get in. Of course I'm basing that off of nothing but I still don't have good chances of getting in. My art teacher on the other hand thinks I have what it takes. Well, I guess it might be cool to go to that thing.
Jan. 1, 2003: Yes so the new year is upon us. And I know what I'm going to hear when I get to school. "Duh!! I can't believe it's 2003!! Uh!! I'm sucha idiot! It feels like 2002!!" Speaking of school, it starts tomorrow. And I have a freaking triptic due then. Hopefully the snow gods will have mercy upon us and give us snow to cancel school. That would be ultra bitchen. Yeah I went to a new years party sorta thing at kyle's house last night. we mostly watched cartoons the entire time, but it was better than work.
(My apologies, the december updates went missing)
Nov. 30: The candid pics link doesn't work because I haven't uploaded it yet and I want to get more pictures before I start it.
Nov. 29: Are you insane? find out here. It's weird to know that there are other Peter Ericksons out there... Look at some of the ones I found below.
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 |
Nov. 28: I stayed up 'til about 12:30 for the first time for a long time. Stayed at home this year for thanksgiving, thankfully. My great aunt from across the street and my aunt and uncle along with two young cousins came over. My one cousin, wesley, is 8 years old and cries so much. He brought over some gamecube games and I completely romped on him with no mercy and he cried and cried. We played some hockey game and it was a complete shut-out. Every goal I scored he cried even harder.
Nov. 27: My dad spent all night talking to customer support last night so I can start updating again!
Nov. 26: Internet still f-ed up. You know, I can only take so much of chang sung gao, I can only take so so much of andrew dickenger.. but when they are together, arguing, about things as trivial as which final fantasy is the best or about buying and selling on E-bay (no joke) then watch out... whoa man. Sometimes I like to intrude upon conversationes in jest. ie: andrew talking about mortal kombat I will intrude and say, "Mortal kombat for sega genisis is the best game ever made." (from billy madison) Either he doesn't get the joke and thinks that I'm serious or doesn't think it's funny or what. I dunno, but I don't get much of the response I was searching for.
Nov. 23: Yeah my internet is still screwed up so by the time I figure out the problem and fix it, it may not be nov. 23 anymore. But I'll just keep updating offline. I watched a program on tlc a while ago about fat people. There was a guy that was 900 pounds or something. He used to be pretty normal weight but he became depressed and ate food and was depressed that he gained weight and eventually he was too big to move much so all he did was sit around and eat. They said he ate 2 large pizzas, 6-7 glasses of milk and an entire loaf of bread... all in one day everyday without any exercise.
Nov. 20: Damn you microsoft... damn you... I keep having trouble getting online cause of access numbers and stuff. Oh and yes.. I have aquired metriod prime.
Nov. 18: Just found out that we get the 25th (monday) and the 28-29th (thurs-fri) off next week. Only two days of school that week!!! I strongly dislike school... this is just what I wanted.
Nov. 17: My damn VCR keeps destroying tapes. I need to get a new one or a DVD player or something. Today I took a nap. I think I may have to do it every sunday cause I have nothing else to do. It feels so good after you wake up 3 hours later, it's like going into a time machine. After a week of school a nap isn't too hard of a thing to take.
Nov. 14: Yeah so my dado cut my hair last night. Good, bad? I dunno. Different? Yes, no maintenance required. Art right now we have this man that is really good at portraits (drawing people's faces) teaching us. Whenever he comes around the room to check and see how we're doing, he always puts his hands on my shoulders while he's giving me tips. It's just kinda weird. He does that for everyone though. I'm guessing he needs to have not only an audible link but a physical link while talking to someone. I hope next time he does that he doesn't violently thrash me.
Nov. 13: hmm I don't have anything interesting to say right now.
Nov. 11 (veteran's day): hahahah oh my god! In english class I sit next to jay jones. So in the beginning of class he's looking the other way and I have gum that I just chewed on the tip of my index finger. So I dab it quickly against his cheek then move it back slightly. He then turns his face slowly to me having his cheek press right against the gum. Even after pressing against it he continues even though one would expect him to move back away from it. He finally moves his face back and I keep my finger in the same place. The gum stretches out and then smacks back onto his cheek. "Are you joking me?!" He exclaimed.
Nov. 10 (after work): Working late sucks. It's so dead. Especially when the only other person there is katy manzo (who doesn't speak much). Just found out my brother, chris is moving to phoenixville. That means I get my room and the use of the phone back. For him however... I'm having a preminition that this won't at all for him. His job now is painting and that ends once it starts getting cold and he's had some problems in his life recently. ie: getting busted at college and dropping out.
Nov. 10: Work tonight, 5-10:30. Going to the shore next weekend, don't ask me why. Oh god. Metroid... I've waited so long for you... 8 more days.... going to work tonight... and I'm driving a car there by myself! Thats what happens when you get a licence. Next will be a car, then college, then marriage, a career, then a house, then being all old, then death. Well, thats just the average life. I plan a sub-average one.
Nov. 9: Awwwww shit! Jackass the movie.... hilarious. I recomend seeing it for a 'laugh out loud' time. I don't recomend seeing it however, if you hate seeing gross stuff, cause there's a lot of it. So I get off work and go to kyle's, we go to atlantic bread company, eat, I ponder why they put soup inside bread, we go to Fraiser movie theater... and they don't let us in. "You have ID?" "Yeah here's my drivers licence." "Okay.. you're not 17." So we go to king of prussia. "You have ID?" "ugh...two for 'the ring.'" Little did the man in the wheelchair that tore our tickets know, we didn't go see the ring, we went to jackass instead. Whoa. Bet ya never knew about that trick!
Nov. 7: I feel so stupid. An art trip was today and I signed up for it last week. They set it up so a small amount was aloud to go, first come first serve. So everyone left, without me, cause I forgot...
Nov. 6: I almost got hit by an acorn today coming home from school, twice. These things fall out of the trees at 50mph nearly drilling into my skull, right through my brain, down through my body and out my rear end, making blood splatter everywhere. On another note, I finally decided to beat mario sunshine.
Nov. 5: Turns out Peter Ferrara, the only other good pete I know of, didn't get that detention. I'm quite suprised. My worst grade 1st marking period was math with a 83% or somewhere around that. I'm also suprised that I have at least 3 a's in my majors (including art).
Nov. 4: Attention everyone! At cvs you can get leftover halloween candy for 75% off!! Get the good candy before everyone else does!! Next week the candy will be 90% off as long as there is some off!! Poop smells like Bryan Savard, not the other way around. And Johnny Hoffnagle, phew, boy does that kid bother me. His high pitch screams sound like a baby just learning to use its vocal cords. The way his fat ripples when he makes the slightess move, the aroma of a wet gym locker room and the beads of sweat that trickle down from that collection of facial hair that he'd like you to call sideburns. Do I hate this person? Well no. Does it pain me to listen to his nonsensical gyberish and singing every other say? Yes.
Nov. 2: Okay... I didn't end up bleeding from too much trick or treating. In fact, I barely trick or treated at all. We left at about 8:30 or something to start and nobody was home or they didn't feel like answering the doors or whatever. So we just went back and stole innocent pumpkins and swallowed them whole as they begged for mercy. Oh man. Last night (friday I think) I went to Phantom of the Opera with my parents at the Forrest theater in philly. It was amazing. I didn't really think I liked broadway musicals until I actually saw one in person last night. The phannnnnnn-tom-of-the-opera-is-herreeeeeee....
Oct. 30: Tomorrow is I'm gonna trick or treat until I bleed!!
Oct. 28: I didn't think people could get addicted to nicorette gum until this lady that comes in every week buys 6 boxes of it per purchase. the only other reason she'd buy that much would be to give to her friends or someone cause her little old body probably couldn't handle all that nicotine surging through her blood every week.
Oct. 26: Last night, me, kyle, jake, nick and todd went to see the jackass movie in fraiser. So we had to get kyle's mom to buy us the tickets to get in. When we get to the guy that his only purpose in life is to tear the tickets... THEY ASK FOR ID. It doesn't make any sense. We just got the tickets so shouldn't we be able to get in? So we go ask for a refund and start arguing with the lady and she boasts having 20 cops in the theater. We get our refund and go out the door and think, "Why aren't those 20 cops out arresting bad people instead of protecting us innocent children from seeing things we see and hearing things we hear every day?" So we go to john's across the street and we get pizza and then wait outside for kyle's mom. These punks come out and see us having a gladiator match (a match where two people stand on a curb and try to push the other off). Then they want to join in. So kyle goes against this one kid and he loses. Then the kid shoves him afterwards for no reason. So these kids just kept saying all this stupid crap that made no sense and throwing stuff around trying to hit us and AND get this... shh... they were smoking cigarettes. The scum finally left and kyle's mom showed up and we went to his house and slept over. This morning I got my driver's licence.
Oct. 22: Me and shitty-san skipped out on the SAT course today. Those courses are unbearably boring. So after the course was over I went in the room and said, "Oh am I late?" ........ no one seemed to notice so it wasn't really that funny.
Oct. 21: If someone without digestive problems took laxatives and then took an equal amount of anti-diarrhea pills, would they cancel each other out? Post answers in guestbook 'cause I'm SHITTIN' to know!!!! ....wait that doesn't make any sense at all...
Oct. 19: Isn't funny how you always think of the best things to say after something happened and regret saying it? Just today at work (12-8 right after PSATs... ugh..) a sophomore comes up and says, "Hey, can you get me some cigarettes?" I reply, "Are you 18? (knowing that he isn't by his face, height and voice)" "Well... I have a fake I.D." He says. "No," I said softly. (<<haha) "C'mon.. why not?" "Don't be ridiculous!" I told him. So he left. I wish I pretended to let him. "Oh yeah sure I'll give you some. What brand do you want? Oh okay. Yeah. I can't seem to find it. Here let me call up a manager. (beep) 'umm.. can I get a manager up here? I can't seem to find these cigarettes for this underaged kid. thanks'" Little punk.
Oct. 18: PSATs tomorrow morning. I went to kyle's after school. On the downstairs computer he found some 'internet checkers' game that losers play in their free time. So he starts playing and it has a selection of messages you can send the other player. He kept saying "It's your turn! It's your turn! It's your turn! It's your ect." The funniest part was that we wouldn't stop laughing even though most normal people wouldn't think it was funny at all. end.
Oct. 16: Unbe-freakin-leivable! I got a 98% on my history project on Andrew Carnegie. You may be thinking, "What's so amazing about that to make Peter say such a thing?" I'll tell you. My project was the biggest case of plagiarism in the entire world. I almost didn't conceive anything by myself! Mr. Herd is so far a really easy teacher as long as one gets one's homework done. Aw man I'm learning how to do flash in my animation class. I'm gonna make some goooood ones once I figure out how. Hopefully I can upload some in the future onto my site. I'm glad. My site seems to be running along smoothly but... it's missing something. A candid picture section! I'm hoping to get some 'candid' pics up here fun for. Candid meaning: out of the ordinary and/or humorous.
Oct. 16: The farmer said, "Where's my tractor?" Today, twice, during the call downs they called down, Art Vandalea. If you're a Seinfeld fan then you'd think it's funny.
Oct. 15: What did the farmer say when he lost his tractor? See tomorrow's update for the answer!!
Oct. 14: I finally found out how to make the menu up there work; I won't go into details 'cause it's boring. I'm so gonna drop spanish. I mean, there are some fun people in that class and all.... but... it's my worst class when it comes to grades. Have you ever FAILED, I mean flat out got every answer wrong on a true/false test? Considering the fact that one should at least get 50% right (or 50% wrong for you pessimistic people) I got all of them wrong on a true/false test in spanish! I admit I didn't study but... I FELL FOR EVERY, SINGLE, TRICK!!!! I felt very ashamed afterwards. Going back to the dropping spanish thing; it's lowering my GPA (grade point average) and I'd much rather take animation and digital graphics (1st semester) and honors psychology (2nd semester) than spanish. Hey, same amount of credits right? right? right? Right. Aw man!!! I just found out how to change that annoying bad anner I mean ad banner up at the top of your page. I made the backround the same and put in that animation to mock them. Unfortunately, I can't get rid of the ad.
Oct. 13: Last night was shaz/lesli's birthday party at annie's house. To sum it up, never go with a friend to a stranger's house and expect everything to be just fine.
Oct. 12: Okay, everything is pretty much set up. I just need to make all the larger versions of the animations and get the old weblog stuff up here. Oh, and the guestbook is the same thing so don't worry about that.
Oct. 11: Brand-freaking-new site design!!! I'm working on getting all of the old weblog archives and animations (including some new, never before seen ones!!)
Sept. 26: I finally have my stoopid projects done for history and english. Today I go into to CVS to work at about 4pm. Just as I get to the second automatic door, the lights go off. The door won't open so I have to push it open. The power was out. The customers were evaced within minutes. All the emergency lights in the store turned on. So it was me and Gus with robin in the photo lab and mary ann as manager. We sat for an hour listening to Gus's mindless babblings and telling customers we were closed when they came to the doors. 5 of clock rolled out (roll out! bum, bum, bum-bum) and Randy came in. So we sat and talked for an hour. A little after 6 the lights suddenly came on and the registers booted up. So for the remaining time until 9 we worked. So I got payed two hours today for sitting around and talking. How about that?! HUH?! HUH?!?!
Sept. 25: Yeah. I think I may aquire freehand or frontpage (webpage design kits) to make this site better. Also, I may start completely over but keep all of the weblog archives and animations and stuff. It's just the design and the stupid title. "Talkguy" "Internet Pitstop" I'm usually flowing with creativity and thats the best website names I could think of? Yeah so today we go on e-bay and I say to search for poop... you know, to be funny. And these results come up of pens that look like globs of poop to a spray that smells like poop to a food that tastes like poop. On one of the things a little cat (or cow?) poops this grey stuff out. So I edit it with my gif maker and make it brown and then post it. And now I look at it and laugh. Am I imature? The answer is a definate maybe.
Sept. 20: I gots work saturday morning as always. I never really gave an explanation for that picture down there of kyle. we were at bravisimo in berwyn and kyle had previously bought a pack of big red gum. He said, "Do you dare me to chew all of this gum at the same time?" and I said, "Okay.. I have a camera here." So he chewed it all for show and I got it on camera. 3-5 months later I scanned those photos and here they are in sequence form for your viewing pleasure. Very pleasurable indeed.
Sept. 19: wow. new site design. I was getting tired of the old one. feedback on your opinions would be great.
Sept. 17: Top 10 worst people or people groups.
10: present age hippies/drugies
9: Ultra whiners
8: intolerent people
7: Arrogent idiots
6: sellouts or advertisment makers/ repeaters
5: whores
4: fake nationalists
3: leeches
2: underserving worldly profiters
1: hardcore mainliners
Sept. 16: Last night Kyle came over after work and he slept over. At about 11am we got up and hung around and then went to bravo. "The usual," I said with a smile on my face to Vinny. "Large cheese coming up. It'll be ready in five." So we ate that and then we walked to Todd's house. He lives behind acme. His brother, who was playing unreal, told us that he was upstairs but he wasnt. So we went across the parking lot/street to chaz's. We sat around there for a couple of minutes with chaz, jay, todd, kyle and me. Then we went to wendy's via chaz's dad's car with chaz driving. After that was grand slam USA for an hour and a half. We earned a whole slew of tickets and I took them to the counter. 217 was the final count. I told the guy I wanted all mini erasers (3 tickets each). So thats about 70 erasers. What did we do with all those erasers? Well, we through them at each other in the parking lot. I gave chaz a cluster of erasers then turned to run and he gave me the same in my back. They put red marks on my back. He took me home and kyle left. The end. Almost time for work at good ol' cvs.
Sept. 14: Yeah I got this new sweeet cd player and I found out how to convert mp3s to cd audio format. In other words, I can download songs from the internet and play 'em on my cd player... which is a good thing for me but a bad thing for those fatcats, those bigwigs, those guys that never see a bullet fly by their heads, at the record companies. I'm trying to get a dsl line for the computer but my parents are cheap and don't want to pay anymore bills. If I could just find a really really good deal on some service with unlimited acsess I would be able to play my little games without interuption.
Sept. 13: Sadly, I didn't have the chance to dish out swirleys to freshmen today but leave them in the toilet bowl therefore drowning them. (Friday the 13th) Today my dad went to the hospitol beacause of heart problems, again. My mom I went to visit him from about 5pm-7pm.
Sept 12: Yeah so zach klein just starts his presentation in spanish class about himself (everyone had to do it). I was just calming down from doing my own and in my relaxation I let loose a fart. Unfortunatly, I was too late and everyone was quiet for his presentation. So suddenly theres this noise... a pause in the room... most of the class snickers for 10 seconds max. But oh no, me and kyle both knowing exactly what happened do not stop laughing for 2 minutes (or however long his presentation was). So after it was over we let out our final laugh. The whole time poor Zach was holding back his laughter and may he forgive me for this, it was on video tape for the spanish teacher to review. She will watch it over and over and over again.
Sept. 11: Yeah so I go into guidance right after 1st period to give Mrs. Whelan a signature from my guardian concerning a class I dropped. All the consulers were sitting in front of the TV talking about where they were a year from now and their reactions. Later today, during lunch, I said to chaz, "Hey Chaz you wanna play a game?" "uh.. okay." "It's called 'gorilla hunter'. You're the gorilla and I chase you with my fake spear." He agreed to play. The conversation isn't entirely accurate but we'll just pretend it is. So Chaz starts off from the outdoor stairs in the courtyard near the library and I start chasing him with my fake spear. As we weaved in and out of people eating their lunches I could hear a yelling to my left presumabley on some concrete benches. As we approached the end of the courtyard nearest to the school offices Chaz suddenly slowed down. At the time I found it odd seeing as he understood the concept of the game. He went over to the benches near an angry Mr. Vogan. For those of you who don't know, Mr. Vogan is a football coach with a... shall I say, fat disposition. Anyway, he was standing on all two so something was not right. He frequently yelled, "C'mere" waving his arms in all his rage. To sum up the things he told us in words understanable: He disaproved of chaz running around in bare feet; he disaproved of running around the courtyard like '3rd graders'; he disaproved that we were'nt conforming with the rest of the people in the courtyard who were not running around but sitting; his fourth chin (as chaz stated) was jiggling; next time he would tell Mr. Gibson. After he let us go we went back and had a good laugh with the guys and mocked him.
Sept 7: this connestruction at school is in the way. one of the cafeteria lines is closed, you can't get to the cafeteria from the courtyard, no eazy weezey breezey way.. gone, all gone. forever. just a few days ago I found myself walking into a wall because I thought I could go through it. okay that didn't happen but it could've! mmm... two, count em', TWO metroid games coming out soon. one for gba and one for gcn. plus, they connect via a $10 cable. I haven't played a new 'troid game since 1994. 8 years, thats almost 10 years, thats a decade!
Sept. 6: It's friday and Kyle gave me this cd of coldplay. He was all excited for me to hear it and I ended up liking it for the most part. The singer has a pretty bad voice but some of the songs he sounded good. In other news, I may have offended someone today.
Sept. 5: My schedule may have few free periods but at least I have some people to talk to in most of my classes. All the other classes are pretty much full of stupid asses like doug himelrich (I don't know how to spell it and don't care to learn), jeff rose ect. And then the rest are just plain people I forgot to mentain or don't know.
Sept. 3: School starts on wednesday..... plus, my oldest brother, steve, went to africa for two years. That means if we don't visit him there or he doesn't come home halfway through, I won't see him until I come home from college for christmas.
Aug 30: Today is the 2nd to last day of August. Yeah I know, you didn't think it would come and you're regretting not doing whatever you hoped to do during the summer. But hey, school starts on Tuesday I think. Thats four days including today. I got the new mario game a few days ago. Any game that you can ride yoshi and make him puke for as long as you want is a good game in my book.
Aug 29: Made a few site changes. I got rid of the weblog archives because theres a lot of stuff in there that is regretable that I wrote (well now it's too late for you to go rooting through, huh?) The other thing I decided to do is get rid of putting the exact time I make an update. Who the hell cares what time I update. sigh... some people in this world need to chill.

Sat Aug 18 2002, 9:52pm: For those who want to know where
I was. On the 3rd of August I took a plane to Guatemala City. Me and my youth
group arrived around 11pm Guatemala time in 'Casa para los ninos' orphanage.
Not all of the 300+ kids living there were orphans. Many of the girls, and some
boys, were raped by their fathers or grandfathers. Others lived on the streets
of Antigua or Guatemala city begging. The orphange was surounded by walls with
barbed wire and a armed guard during the night, keeping intruders from getting
in and taking back their kids. While I was there I painted some buildings in
bright latin american colors, used a machetti to cut grass and weeds, moved
several large piles of dirt and helped take down a cement wall. Most importantly
we played and talked with the kids. It's hard to tell that they have been abused
when you play with them (other then noticing scars and burn marks on their skin).
Other than the unwelcoming staff everyone was friendly to us 'cringos', as white
folk are called down there. The 12th at 4am we went to the airport and I got
to one of the interns houses to spend the night at 6pm.
My parents had left for the outer banks on the 11th so I took a smelly, dirty
bus full of the scum of society to Norfolk VA. which is near Virginia beach.
My brother Steve took me the rest of the way to the beach house. I stayed there
until the 17th and I got back early this morning at 12am. I left out many details.
Oh well.. in short thats what I did from aug 3rd to aug 18th.
Sat Aug 3 2002, 9:43am: I'll be leaving shortly.
Tues July 31 2002, 2:25pm: Monday was 6 flags. The most memorable
part was when this father literally forced his daughter to get on a steel roller
coaster. She tried to get away but he put her in the seat and shut the thing
on her and she couldnt get out. I sat in the seat with my mouth hung open. The
most ironic part about this though was that his shirt read, #1
Dad in red letters. Me and Chaz tried to impersonate it later
on the same ride but it didnt really work out. On the same ride I took off my
shirt mid-ride, flashed my nipples at the cameras, and then put it back on just
in time. That was pretty hard going 60mph plus and around corners. Then we rode
more and got lost and found our way home.
My 7 year old cousin wesley is over at my house 'cause I'm babysitting him.
He boasted that he killed mario by pushing him into the hot lava. I said to
him, "Wes, thats awful." He replied, "Awesome, you mean."
Sat July 27 2002, 7:57am: Tommorow will be the first day of the last week I will be in PA for 2 or three weeks. Quite an event. Oh geez I just downloaded The lord of the rings: The two towers trailer. After a long slow download I noticed it didn't work. There was audio but no video. So I had to search the information superhighway for a codec to download to make it work. I found it and watched the trailer.... I would go short of killing a man to see it. But I'll probobly just wait until it comes out and then throw $8.50 (or however much you have to spend just to see a movie these days) in the face of the theator clerk. They will hand me the ticket, three hours later I will have nothing else to look forward to in life. Suicide will then be contemplated but most likely not happen. On monday I get to go to 6 flags with a band of idiots that includes me, kyle, chaz, "tollman" (okay.. talman but still...) and matt english. We will ride in the second row of seats and when it gets intense we will grab the hair of those in front of us. On breaks we will sit and look at all the fat people and retards that are fully entitled to a fun time at 6 flags as we are. They all will most likely be southern too. One of us will fall into the trap that is dippin' dots and find that it is a total waste of money. Ice cream of the future my ass... ice cream of an expensive future more like it. I plan to tell people that I am I VIP (I will make a pass at home out of contrustion paper and crayons) and get to ride before all of those other failures of humans in line. That may be harsh... but this is in new jersey. And all the new yorkers without jobs come down on weekdays. I also am wondering if bringing a watergun into the park and spraying people until they beg for mercy because the intense power is ripping the skin from their faces would be illegal. But.. it will indeed be fun.
Wed July 24 2002, 12:56am: Mario Sunshine was recently released
in the land of the rising sun. It will come here in the land of the setting
sun in august. I... must have that game... My life will not be complete, I will
not be satisfied, I will not be content until I have that game! I will march
into the gamestop near me and throw the money in their faces and the march right
back out. Then I will procede to go back in and pick up the game. Then, and
only then, and much afterwards too, I will play the game with a smile on my
face. I mean, why shouldn't I be excited? You can ride Yoshi, you can shoot
water with a funny-looking water gun and AND, and you get a jetpack! A FREAKIN
JETPACK!! I sometimes ponder to myself if it is possible to foresee a game that
good. Is it possible for this game to be so good? And if so, why? Why is it
so good?
Okay heres a seperate update for those of you who aren't as enthusiastic about
this game as I am: ok ok.. .so im at work... and this guy (and I nkow he wanst
18 yrs old)) comes in and is all "Yo i is gonna buy des cigars.... and youse
gonna like it!" I was all "You got ID????" Hes all "nooo!!1" Then I say "wel;
you cant buy them without iit so scram!" and hes like "Well cant y' just let
me have 'em anyway?" bitch! I was like "Psh! Its da law man, and if you dont
like it..... then you can just move to russia or summat!" then he left. end.
Mon July 22 2002, 11:58am: Just 12 or so days and I'm on the
plane to Guatemala. I get back from that on Aug 12. Then, the next day I'm taking
a bus down to Virginia Beach (by myself) and my parents are going to pick me
up to go to the Outer Banks! See, they were scheduled to rent the beach house
down there a few days before I get back from Guatemala. So they'll just meet
me later a little north of the outer banks.
Hopefully by summer's end I will have read all of the Lord of the Rings books
(including The Hobbit). I've been going slow lately and I'm only half way through
the Fellowship or the Ring.
Until I leave, the bike rides will continue. Maybe not everyday, but I'll still
explore. Why just yesterday I went to Acme and saw some girls. They said "hi"
to me and I politely responded with a "Hello!" Then I went to CVS and talked
to my 'supervisors' mike and chris. Cool guys.
Thur July 18 2002, 11:13am: While I was still sleeping this morning I was dreaming. I was in a hotel room somewhere and my oldest brother was singing a song to his girlfriend. I had never heard it before so I wrote it down after I woke up. I call it "The get out of bed song." If you're ever asleep I'll sing it until you wake up, suckers.
Wed July 17 2002, 10:27pm: I got my shots the other day. woe. Man, these summer days are getting way too repetitive. They're easy going and all. But it's the same thing, just like during the school year. I think I may have to go on more solo bikeride adventures. The farthest I've gone alone was berwyn.
Mon July 15 2002, 9:57pm: Boy how I love it when people sign my guestbook. I have nothing to do sometimes and it's just fun to see that someone out there signed my guestbook. I don't even care who it is or what they say (within some limits). Oh and for you people out there that read this, oh faithful readers, this week I'm going to post brand new, never before seen poems! I also might make some other site modifications but who knows (besides me). Mark you calanders, my trip to Guatemala is Aug 3. I'll be gone pretty much half of that month 'cause right afterwards I'm going to the outer banks. But, I promise to update the site right when I get back as long as someone looks after it for me. It can't survive by itself you see. For all of you bored people on the internet who read my site and sites like it, have a good day.
Sat July 13 2002, 1:42pm: ugh... true love waits by radiohead is sucha good song. Download it from the internet. Right now there's only a live version and not a studio one. Yesterday was briana bremner's b-day party. I ran shirtless (w/jams), popping innocent people's water balloons until they cried and cried. At one time I asked Elyse to stop so I could fill up my smaller bucket with her bucket of water. After that I poured it all over her. She was a fool to trust me with water. There was food at the back porch and that of course was where all of the guys hung out to talk about boobs and stuff. I felt that the conversations were going down hill so I went to the front padio and found that no one was doing anything, just sitting. So I practiced jumping over the wall. Once the cake came, the dark, secluded corner of men came out. Then the ceremonial opening of presents and then I left.
Wed July 10 2002, 10:25pm: CVS... I worked today. A few hours into work I was ringing up a lady. Nothing strange at all. Until, after the lady was finished, a man with a wife beater and a stain in the middle of it darted in front of another man in the line to my register. Shocked, the man behind him said, "Excuse me sir, I was here..." "Oh! I was coming in after the lady..." he replied as the man behind him moved in front to get rung up. The man that I now started to ring up sarcastically said in turn, "Yeah, whatever dude." This angered the stained shirted man. He sternly said, "My name isn't DUDE... I HAVE A NAME!!!" The man I was ringing up smirked and rolled his eyes. After I was done ringing up the one item that he had he left. The stained shirt man watched him leave the store and then continuasly said, "God-damn fucking asshole... sucha fucking asshole.... I'm gonna kill 'em.... fucking asshole..." I was started to get scared. He reassured me by saying he wasn't talking about me but I already knew that anyway. The entire time I didn't say anything to not get this emotionaly unstable man on my case too. Meanwhile, Andrew Welburn was on the register next to me holding back his laughter. When the crazy man finally left I was waiting for yells and gunshots but I didn't hear them.
Fri July 10 2002, 10:02am: Sorry folks it had to be done. I removed several un-needed sections from this website because they were taking up precious space. I only get like 10 megs of space or something and I was pushing the limit. So I removed all of those pictures and stuff. The weblog animations, poems and guestbook will always be on my site. Next to be destroyed will be Art because I have a school Art site and if you want to see art then go there. (link is on main page) Also, the funny shit section is indeed funny.... but it's only funny once. I may keep that for newcomers to the site but I just don't know.
Fri July 5 2002, 2:07pm: This morning at 2:30a.m., kyle and I rode bikes. On the way there we went to CVS and saw good ol' sal and carolyn (pretty sure thats how it's spelled). Carolyn was all like, "What the hell are you doing here?" We just told her that we were on a bike ride and pretended to be suprised when she said what time it was. She's a nice person. So, we bought milk and drank it and left. After that we rode down lancaster av. to berwyn and then turned over the bridge and went to connestoga to see the constuction. As we were riding there we saw a cop car. It stopped in front of us.... kyle said, "Oh shit, a cop." Then the car just sped off. After seeing the construction progress we went on our way back home. As kyle was going to sleep I continued to ask or tell him things. By the time we went to sleep it was 4:00a.m. 6 hours later my mom came downstairs and told me, "Peter, lesli and her sister are here." "Are you joking me mom?" "No, they're upstairs. C'mon up." "No, just send them down here..." I sat there, very tired, listening to their stupid story. Without calling or anything they come to my house at 10 a.m. and expect me to drive them to the mall. I denied the request though. They left after watching me play gamecube for a while.
Wed July 4 2002, 2:13pm: Independence Day. On this date in the year 1776, the delclartion of independence was signed.
Wed July 3 2002, 8:51pm: Yesterday I went to the beach. The
waves sucked compared to the last time I went. But I did catch a few good ones.
A good variety of people there... For anyone who hasn't seen the school art
websites, you should check 'em out. http://www.tesd.k12.pa.us/stoga/dept/artwebpage/visualart/portfolioindex.html
Some of them are good, but most of them are all broken links and two images
(and with that lack of care on the sites they'll probobly stay that way).
Mon July 1 2002, 9:02pm: Grand theft auto 3 is either a good game or a great game. If only people cared about my opinions on videogames. (thats where you, loyal readers, come in and say, "Oh we care! Please share your infinite knowledge with us!"
Sun July 1 2002, 12:00am: It is July right now. I saw Ocean's 11 tonight........ on DVD might I add. It was a good flick and right when you think you know what's going to happen next, they suprise you. That's suspense for you. I might just go to the new jersey beach once again on tuesday. Hey look! boobies! >> ( - )( - )
Fri June 28 2002, 9:57pm: Today I went to see Mr. Deeds with Adam Sandler. It's about a small town man who delivers pizzas, but finds that his deceased great uncle (who never in the will stated that his nephew should inherent his stocks that add up to a value of 40 billion dollars) became a billionare. If you've been bad recently, then I suggest punishing yourself by seeing this movie. The attempt to make a warm, loving cast that still had enough of a fun-loving attitude towards life to make an enertaining movie was proven to be a failure. If you want to see a funny, creative Adam Sandler film, then see Billy Madison.Thurs June 27 2002, 5:22pm: Geez it's almost July!! Summer's almost over!! It's almost independence day!! OK I gotta go now.
Thurs June 27 2002, 12:43am: I'm looking forward to a game called Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. It's been in developement for 4 years (originally started on N64 but switched over to gamecube) I've been waiting for that game since I heard about it and found out what it was like. I'm not going into detail on what it's about... but all I'm saying is if you own a Gamecube..... then buy it! In other news, someone (he'll remain unnamed as of now) sent me some rather disturbing images online tonight that made me reflect my life. After purging that from my sigh (and stomach) I learned vital lessons that I will keep for the rest of mine life. Soon, I'll be playing that game......... oh and it will be glorious.
Sun June 23 2002, 11:22pm: Yesterday I jumped of the bridge.
Then we built three dams to raise the water level. It really worked. Between
the first and second dam there is a pool that one can sit in and enjoy themselves.
We hope to remove most of the rocks from that pool to make it a soft bottom
of silt. On tuesday kyle is coming in to get trained at CVS.
TV sickens me sometimes. I can't stand those repetitive advertisements that
people repeat in their daily conversations uesd as jokes. Also, I know I sometimes
do this with "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy", repeating lines from the TV shows.
They have that much control over us that we're remembering TV in our daily lives.
It sickens me. Just like in all industries, there are good sides. Some shows
are itelligent/funny/interesting. Those sitcoms where people sit in a room arguing
about stupid crap for 17 minutes just plain suck.
Tues June 18 2002, 8:41pm: Today I took out the old potatoe gun and gave it a few shots. Boy golly gee!!! It's really fun and easy to use. All you need is PVC pipes, a lighter, hair spray and a potatoe. It works similar to that of an internal combustion chamber in a car or gas lawn mower. The combustion (combustion means fire) chamber is air tight. With the flamable fuel (hair spray) inside ignited by a lighter, it makes an explosion that forces the potatoe out of the canon at a high speed. It's that simple. No updates until saturday or sunday beacause I'm going to the beach wed morning to friday night and I'm going bridge jumping right after work on saturday.
Mon June 17 2002, 10:11pm: I had work tonight.. yeah yeah. Anywho.... Kyle is coming to join the CVS family, this is going to be awesome. Tonight both chris managers decided that the bells will be abolished from CVS. No more ringing bells because they are quote annoying end quote. (see how clever I am? I don't even put in quotes) So I decided to take the bells home for future use. Future use meaning walking through paoli constantly ringing the bells. This week I'm going the beach with church and bridge jumping on saturday. You're not invited unless you're worthy!!! I'll tell you who's worthy....
Fri June 14 2002, 9:02pm: geez. you know you don't need drugs for fun right?
Sun June 9 2002, 3:11pm: Kyle might actually come and work at CVS this summer. Apparently, chris, the guy in charge of hiring, knows both of kyle's siblings so it wasn't too hard to get in. Yesterday was a long day. I went to work for 5 hours in the morning. Went out to lunch with kyle, neal and neal's girlfriend. Went to kyle's house. Neal wasted his money and N64 games for an X-Box. lesli and skyler came over. Went bridge jumping and swimming and had a mud fight (mud fight: throwing mud from creek bed at one another). Went back to his house. Got some grub. I went a graduation party. Went back to kyle's. Slept over. The whole time involved lots of videogames too. Kyle kept flipping his shit at 2:00am when he would lose in super smash bros. or get pissed off at my incredible playing abilities.
Sun June 2 2002, 9:26am: Yesterday was fun. After work I went to Kyle's house. We walked alllllllll the way to WaWa which is a 45min or some walk. It was friggin hot but when we finally got there we got Icees and refilled them several times until the lady kicked us out. We went on the roof and then got off.. wheee. Then just in time kyles mom and sister came in the car to go to the wine and spirits shoppe. Moira just turned 21 so she was allowed in. We convinced them to drive us home so they did. I made a comment about Moira's hair and then Kyle said "You think my sisters hot?!?" I replied instantly, "NO! wait.....uh........yes?......hey that was a trap of a question." Moira was sitting right in front of me hearing the whole thing. We later went swimming in the creek.
Fri May 31 2002, 9:58pm: Tonight I was going on a friday bike ride and borna came out of nowhere. Apparently, Dan Kellher (i think thats how its spelled) broke his tire and he needed to go to proformance bike shop. Joe lee was teaching me how to bunny hop but I actually needed to learn how to manual first. So now I semi-know how to manual and I'm excited. Afterwards I went home and updated my site.Thurs May 30 2002, 9:52pm: Today after school kyle came over and we rode to chaz's house. We went to bravo and got stombolies. Later, we went behind blockbuster and found a bucket of god knows what in the dumpster. I took out the bucket and found that its was a hard substance that looked like vomit but really wasn't. I was dissapointed. I decided to fill it with my own vomit. I told kyle and chaz to dare me to puke in it and they said in unison, "Go ahead." So I put my index finger in my mouth and tickled that little dangley thing until vomit came out. Soon after, Chaz did it and bubbley yellow stuff came out. Then kyle tried and a whole shit load of this brownish stuff came out (more than mine and chaz's combined) We all had a good laugh and went home.
Wed May 29 2002, 9:45pm: It's been almost exactly one week since I updated (10 minutes off). So...... um........ what to talk about............. umm..... I'm kinda thinking of going back to how life was in middle school (not caring the least bit of what people think of me yet still starving for attention) I'll exclude the middle school attitude of disliking anyone who isn't my friend and making fun of those who are smarter than I. That part I'm glad I left at that death trap of sorrow and pain known as Valley Forge Middle School. cause I realized, fuck whats the point?
Wed May 22 2002, 9:55pm: Just got back from 12th night at conestoga. I don't want to sound like an ignoramus but I couldn't understand what they were saying. Anyway, we left at the first 'halftime' and didn't come back.
Wed May 22 2002, 1:50pm: **We are in lockdown status....** stay calm, there are dogs in the building. I bet the druggies thought the last lockdown was the only one we would have. Guess they were wrong. This time there was no warning at all. I'm afraid a lot of people are going to get caught. hmm.... what to do during lockdown? oh yeah. i'm in trhe computer lab next to skyler and hannah.
Mon May 20 2002, 9:12pm: Wow. Supposedly I set some sort of record or something at CVS a week or so ago. I rang up a big number of people within the five hours I was working there, making an average of one person every 30 seconds. But don't take my word for it. I never myself saw the numbers for myself. Anyway, new subject. A personal goal for myself is to stop joking around about suicide and sexual innuendo. Because I know I'm not suicidal and I'm not a pervert. And I don't want people to start thinking that I am.
Sun May 19 2002, 9:26pm: Last night I went to elyse's birthday party. I don't really know her and don't really know why I was at the party. It had bad music, bad pizza, good mini corndogs and a variety of people. But don't worry, I had fun there. Today I babysat my couisin for some reason. I have to go now.
Fri May 17 2002, 3:29pm: Today kyle is at my house. We may go to wayne and all. I got Photoshop and Flash from terry today. YES! For free!! Photoshop is $600, this is so illegal. Oh well. Today I also worked on "The Demented: A book of cartoons by Peter Erickson and others." The first version is complete, so I can copy it in the copy machine and give it out and all. I'm already thinking of a sequal. I'll call it, "The Demented II: A book of cartoons by Peter Erickson and others." Anyway, the sequal will be much better and I'll have all summer to make cartoons and copy them when I get back to school.
Thurs May 16 2002, 7:30pm: I want to see Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones!! Anyway, it seems like noone else does though. It's supposed to be much better than episode I, which I enjoyed. Anyway, I'm going to wayne on friday. I don't know what I'm going to do there but I will do it.
Wed May 15 2002, 5:11pm: I'm just gonna update for the sake of updating. umm.... hehe... who all reads this site anyway? Do I just sit here and talk (type) to myself. I think I'll make a new poll in the guestbook about this.
Tues May 14 2002, 10:27pm: Gotta make sure to take the CVS card before I scan items. Or else mike will beat me..... again......
Sun May 12 2002, 8:03pm: I saw many red heads today.... a little too many for my liking. I went to an art gallery with my mom and dad. The gallery kept bragging how so many good artists came from bucks county or whatever county we were in. After that we went to some festival celebrating old stuff like weaving, churning butter, glass blowing and selling lemonade at a high price to tourists. After that we went home and had sweet inocent lamb for dinner and I played starcraft. I'm starting to get back into starcraft all the sudden. It's a great game and can you believe its like 5 years old? I'm not really that upset now. All this alone time/boredom this weekend gave me time to think. OK. later you fools
Sat May 11 2002, 10:02pm: Today I spent roughly 7 hours pulling weeds, moving mulch ect. Then I went home and played Starcraft (kicked ass in it too) by myself. I ate an entire Tombstone pizza (I wanted pepperoni on my tombstone and my wish was granted) by myself.... I'm not very hungry now. Tomorow I'm going to some art museum with my mom for Hallmark Gift Card Company Presents the Holiday: Mother's Day. After mothers day will be father's day and then somewhere in there grandparent's day, secretary's day, teacher's day and garbage man's day. Every other day of the year is average white male between the ages of 13 and 25. What a weekend. I'll be fully recovered by monday maybe. This summer is either going to be the best summer ever or the most boring summer ever. I don't have much time to make some summer fake summer friends for those days noone is home. Well, at least there are a lot of videogames to look forward to. Metroid, Star fox, Mario ect. Videogames will always be there for me. They will never let me down and I always forgive them when I just can't seem to beat them or conprehend why the graphics are so good. Heheehe.... best weekend ever.... wait what am I saying? Am I some sort of idiot??
Fri May 10 2002, 12:16pm: Do you ever get that feeling that everything is just fine and nothing matters? And then WHAM! Outta nowhere you're just another lonely fish in the sea or whatever. Maybe this is just a temporary thing. But who knows. I'm just gonna have to go forward and either forget or go back to two or three months ago when I was cool. But whatever. Don't think that I'm angry. I'm just suprised. Man, work today is going to suck ass. 4-9, five hours, with this on my mind the whole time. Soccer moms claiming things are on sale when in reality they're just morons.
Thurs May 9 2002, 7:35pm: I made a comitment a while ago to update this site every day and I go ahead and what? I don't update it every day. People depend on me for god's sake. And I go and betray them by not updating every day? I've probobly lost half of the 6 people who go to this site daily (thus making 3 people visit my site daily). I'm gonna get those other 3 back. Me: "Hey, I'm gonna update more for now on OK? So you, you can just go and visit the site... and you'll find what you need... I know you kids love to browse the information superhighway and all. But just make a pit stop at my site. You know to refill mind, body and spirit." And they'd say, "Hey thanks a lot pete, I really need that. Otherwise my days would be long and full of sorrow and hatred towards my fellow men (men includes women)." Then, my friends, then I would have reached my goal; by touching that one person deep inside his/her heart, forever leaving a scar (a happy and neat to look at one) in his/her chest. I'd see the smile on his/her face as he/she reads my update, and I'd be content. Just like the feeling you get after taking a nice, serene bikeride on a cool late summer's night with fireflies (not lightening bugs!) lighting their soft behinds in order to attract a partner to mate with and never see again.
Sun May 5 2002, 1:16pm: Mothers day is sometime soon. I wish mothers didn't think they need a present just because hallmark said they do. oh well. I really want to go on a bikerode tonight but i can't because bikeline has my bike to fix the crooked wheel.
Sat May 4 2002, 8:49pm: BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! Yes, he's back! I haven't updated this weblog for the longest of times. Anyway. I went to Kyle's house today. We destroyed the trampoline, hated the dog, feared his mom's wrath, hit golf balls into people's yards and watched CKY
| Tues April. 23 2002, 6:40pm: Today I went to the weight room to lift heavy stuff. The guys lockeroom is a nasty, horrid, beatley place in which I never would voluntarily spend any amount of my time. Football players everywhere. The weight room is not much better. But I ran 2 miles, thats more than I usually run each day ( .2 miles for freestyle walking). Before the weightroom and stuff the was a lock down 2nd period. I was stuck in biology with Mr. Mariner. He let us talk most of the time. I could hear the drug sniffing dogs barking, it was kinda scary. After that and the weight room, me, kyle, lesli and skyler went to wayne on the train. We got pizza at bravo's. Then me and lesli went to the book store and hid. We looked at a book that had pictures from the september 11th attacks. Then we decided that skyler and kyle might get lost in wayne so we got up and I pulled the bookshelf on myself. Some of the books fell down and the guy there was saying stuff like, "You're 14 years old. You should be able to support your own weight without pulling yourself up with a bookshelf." and i said, "Actually I'm 16 and I have a bookbag on." We found kyler and skyle in Gap. They didn't have white people music playing which suprised me. We then went to great harvest and got free bread samples and water ice. The entire time we were in wayne skyler kept telling us not to do things. Yes it was annoying but it doesn't really bother me that much. (not many things bother me these days). Then we sat and went home. The end. |
--Boston Trip. The Story of-- It all began on Friday the 19th of April. I woke up at 6:00 or so. Got ready and all, drove to school, left on a the trip on a bus with televisions. As we drove to the first rest stop in New Jersey me, Kyle and Nick played Super Mario World on Gameboy Advance and Ryan played his Playstation 1 with a portable LCD screen and battery. We arrived at a rest stop in New Jersey. There were shelves full of overpriced junk on them. There was one display case that had watches on it. A person (I wont release his name because he might not want anyone to know) came over as I was looking at the $20 watches. He took off two watches from the display and pocketed them. When we left the building going back to the bus he gave me and Kyle the watches. We kept going up to Massachusetts watching movies, listening to music and playing videogames. During that trip Dan Meyer kept asking to borrow my headphones. Jon Carreli really like the headphones because they were retro and had separate volume controls for each ear. Basically, the first day we went through a science museum. A museum of science? It was more like a giant toy store in which you couldnt take anything home. Some lady sat in a cage and told us about Tesla (alternating current guy who doesnt get any credit). She kept our short attention span on her by using her giant Tesla coils to shoot lightning at metal wires. We continued to walk through the museum without learning anything. Then we went to an omni verse theater. The first part had Lenard Nimloy explaining to us how New England is such a great place. It also included terrible voice acting from the local people. After that the feature presentation came on. It was about Mt. Kilamanjaro in Africa. It was actually pretty cool. We left the theater discussing how it would have been funny if it was about a camera zoomed in on a guys ass and he farts in slow motion. Of course no museum is complete without a visit to the gift shop. I watched in disgust as foolish tourists emptied their wallets for squishy blob things and noise making things (none of which had to anything to do with science or anything in the museum for that matter). We waited near a plastic funnel shaped thing for the busses. Apparently, the funnel thing requires you to drop coins in a slot so they can spin around for 10 minutes until it gets inside. Im guessing thats another way the science museum makes money aside from ticket sales and souvenirs. We took the busses to a laser tag place. It was basically thing same thing as grand slam. In the same complex, there was a Tai Kwon Do place owned by a Kwon. What a cowinkidink! I looked outside and saw some local kids that wanted to come in but couldnt because the school rented the place. Everyone received a bag of tokens for the arcades and gambling ticket machines. I chose to gamble since most of the arcades were out of date. I ended the night with 800 some tickets (nothing compared to Crystal Wu who got 4 jackpots). I played 3-4 laser tag games too. It was awesome. My team won every time and once I was the highest scoring player. In one of the games something fell from the ceiling and hit Jay in the leg. OK! Im gonna finished this update later! |
| Thurs April. 18 2002, 6:57pm: Last update until monday... right now I'm copying a CD for my mom. I've done nothing but copy Cds for the past week. When I'm finished, I'm going down to gamestop and I'm getting Super Mario World for Gameboy Advance!!!!!!!!! Ahh memories... Anyway, today was mudders club (every thursday) and I made a coil pot. A clay man started to form atop the pot. After a while I gave him long hair and boobies, therefore making it a girl. I only did that because I thought it would look cool to have the hair flowing down and attachec to the pot. The girl has a sad look on her face. She looks like a depraved loner formed by our soicety in which popularity and looks are oh so important. Alright, I'm going to go get my game on and get back online later. Then next morning I'm gonna get my boston trip on. |
| Wed April. 17 2002, 2:55pm: Good ol', good old... I'm making a website at school that is so much better than this one. Well actually its a lot easier to make. It's going to have just art on it though. So I'll keep this one up for everything else. Wow. Boston is on friday! Yeah, its gonna be way better than wayne. I'll show you guys! I'm gonna bring my Game boy advance to boston and I need to get super mario world before I go so everyone will be jelous and want to play. I'm only gonna let kyle, nick and ryan play. Sorry, group members only. Unless you have a link cable game and want to play two player. |
| Tues April. 16 2002, 5:51pm: Today I worked more on my website in Art class. I didn't get much done because that damn computer froze. Art class just flys by and nothing gets done. Later I hung out in the courtyard with that cool girl I know. We made a card for skyler because she's all sick and stuff. (note to self: do not share a drink with skyler, I might get sick too) After school I rode kyle's bus home and we went to the creek. We bridge jumped. It was quite fun I should say. Jake brought down a sandwich and he didn't finish eating it so I ate the rest. After a hour or so we went back to kyle's. He gave me some family guy episodes on CD! I now have 19 episodes of pure hilarity!! |
| Sun April. 14 2002, 8:49am: Updated before I get all churched up. I don't exactly know when I'm going to get home. I'm guessing around 1 'o clock. The picnic? Where is it at? Call me when I get home, or leave a message on the machine. |
| Sat April. 13 2002, 5:08pm: Imagine picking up sticks and leaves for about seven hours. Thats what I did today. So what did you do? |
| Fri April. 12 2002, 8:47pm: Today was pizzaria uno then stuff and stuff.... I don't feel like typing and stuff... |
| Thurs April. 11 2002, 7:04pm: Me kyle skyler and lesli went to paoli bravo. skyler's mom took us home. bravo tastes good. I crushed a soda can and got yelled at. |
| Wed April. 10 2002, 5:49pm: Today people wore t-shirts and were silent for gay-strait alliance thing. Mr. Husband actually taught us an entire period without speaking. It was pretty interesting but also pretty gay. hahah. hey you gay people are alright with your fancy tees and all. Anyway, there's nothing much else I want to say right now. |
| Tues April. 9 2002, 3:04pm: Ok so everything is just dandy now. I don't really care about the weirdo anymore, I'll just let him do what he feels is necesary for attention. Anyway, everything is great in my life. |
| Mon April. 8 2002, 9:36pm: Geez. I was really mad about those online posts just a little while ago. Luckily Kyle cared enough to call me up and tell me what I was doing. I realized that being pissed off and beating someone up is not my style at all. I'm just going to ignore those things and not go on the site anymore. If this loser still keeps posting then he has the problem and not me. I'm glad I came to realize this before I did something worse than I already did. |
| Mon April. 8 2002, 7:21pm: Some guy keeps writing weird stuff on borna's message board. I wouldn't care as much if it didn't have my name in it. Well I think I know whos writing it but I don't have much proof. who is the jackass? oh well. |
| Tue April. 2 2002, 1:09pm: Right now I am sitting next to cool Jon Maloney (it rhymes with bologna). Wow, he is so cool. I told him about my headphones and he thought that they were really really cool. I wish that we could be good friends but he is too popular for me... |
| Mon April. 1 2002, 9:28pm: My head has been shaven as an april fools joke. Today was April fools day. I played some april fools jokes on some people. What I did was I would hit/push them, and say april fools! I dropped Mr. Hood's eraser on the ground for his april fools joke. He doesn't seem to understand our custom. Seventh period free is good cause it's right after lunch. The only other free I have is 3rd on day 2 (that one is also great). I wonder how that concert is going right now? I'm sure they're having fun. Some jerk keeps coming into CVS and he tries to teach me proper edicate. He's always like, "Always say thank you and your welcome to customers" and, "You should look at customers when you ring them up." Who does this guy think he is telling me how to do my job?!?! I'm almost too polite sometimes!! Next time I won't just not say anything. I'm going to tell him off so hard, so fast, so bad, his head will spin like a top (or for jewish people a dradle). Then he will have to go to the emergency room because of extensive neck damage from spinning. Right now I should probobly go to bed to sleep (thats what I do in bed). But I don't feel like it. I had work today with good ol' Randy Long. He's a funny guy, and he's the cameraman for snews news. Snews news is funny, I don't care what you all say. Sometimes it's pretty stupid but if you think about it, these guys aren't profesionals (they're pretty good though) and you can't expect them to make a good show. But they did. Anyway, even though a lot of jokes are semi-recycled from other movies or TV shows, it's still entertaining. I think that it's better than a lot of NBC, ABC, FOX, UPN, WB ect. shows. I'm really excited to spend a week at kyles house, my parents are going to boston or something. I'm going to boston with the school and my roomys are Kyle Toomey, Nick Bruno and Ryan McDonauh (I can't spell his last name). Anyway, I'm bringing my GBA (game boy advance) and maybe my gamecube. We are going to make that trip so good, so epic, so out of control that your head will spin like a top (and for the jewish people a dradle). Right now I think my life is just great. I have no or minor worries, I know lots of cool people, I have money, I have a permit to drive, school isn't too hard, I have two of my own rooms, I could keep going. I will soon buy a lot of easter candy from CVS for a mega discount. Just like christmas, I'll bring in candy. Except this time it will be more than candy canes. OK see y'all later! (thats slang for goodbye) |
Sun Mar. 31 2002, 7:52pm: School tommorow. Boooo. April fools day though. That'll be fun...
Sat Mar. 30 2002, 5:20pm: Well spring break is coming to a close. It's sad. But on the bright side, there is so much to look forward to. My driver's licence, a car and who knows what else (hopefully something good ;) ). Anyway it was a good spring break. I hung out with friends almost everyday, and I didn't regret it later. I have a secret that only two people know about that will be revealed monday. Next week looks good. I'm going to Kyle's house on wed and leaving on the weekend! My parents are going to some place, I forget where, nor do I care. So they're keeping me at the Toomeys. There will probobly be a lockdown when the fourth marking period begins, so I'll have to bring my game boy advance. Hey, moday is april fools day isn't it. That reminds me of a sleepover two or three years ago with Kyle and Jake on april fools day. We kept hitting each other and then we would say "april fools." Jake also made an ugloo, an igloo made of couch coushons.
Sat Mar. 30 2002, 11:34am: No time to talk now, I have to go to work soon.
Fri Mar. 29 2002, 2:57pm: There was a cookoff at Kyle's house yesterday. *sshhhh* The secret ingrediant was cheese. I have to say that lesli and skyler's umm... stuff was better than kyle's. Sorry kyle but you didn't do much with the secret ingrediant and the tortilla shells were a disaster. After that we played videogames and I jumped off the bridge. That water was really cold, but it gave me 'the ulrimate rush.' Everyone eslse left and I slept over at Kyles. We went to some indian resturant and got ripped off. Nothing much else interesting happened but Neal, Kyle's brother, is the funniest person I've ever met.
Tues Mar. 26 2002, 8:56pm: What a day, what a day This morning
I woke up at 11:08. I called up Kyle, "Hey Kyle, whats up?"
"Nothing. I just woke up."
"Cool. You ready to come over?"
"I'm gonna eat and get a shower first. Ill call you when Im ready."
I then got a shower and ate some honey bunches of oats. I love those things. I walked downstairs to ask Chris if Kyle called. He said yes. Just as I was going to pick up the phone, he called.
"Ok I'll be over in twenty minutes. Man Im eating this sandwich with bacon, an egg, cheese and its in a bagel (or something like that)."
I started rendering some animation of a UFO on the computer. Kyle came around 12:20 or something. He brought a Radiohead CD with MP3s and movies. I copied it and then we put our shoes on.
"Mom Kyle and I are leaving, and I dont know when well be back."
"Umm.. Ok. Whats in the bag?"
"It's drugs. Bye Mom!"
She probably believed me. As we started walking into town I was saying to Kyle that we had to do things today that weve never done before. He suggested taking the train to Malvern. I thought that would be fun. The train then came, on the other side of the tracks. We wouldnt be able to make it so we didnt bother. We walked through Paoli, in the rain, to Chazs house to see if he wanted to come. Knock after knock we found that he wasnt home or he was deaf. We decided to walk to Lesli Ks house instead. We finally got to Leslis house. Does her doorbell work? We were standing there for like two minutes and finally Phillip, came in and opened the door. Lesli and her sister were very surprised to find that I and Kyle came. I convinced her to stray from her homework and come to Malvern on the train with us. We walked to the Daylesford train station and her brother and sister just missed their train for Wayne. We waited and crossed the tracks. Then we saw a train coming in the direction we wanted to go. Oh crap! We need to get to the other side. Kyle and I quickly hopped the fence with Lesli behind. The train was beeping like crazy now. She literally just made it. I realized that that was the stupidest thing Ive ever done in my entire life. She could have slipped on the tracks or something. Then I would have to watch that was the scariest moment of my life. She could have died. The train didnt even stop though, it was one of those express trains. Anyway, we waited for a while then the load speaker came on, Attention passengers, attention passengers. Train six is running As soon as I heard running, I thought they were going to say, Dont run across the tracks you idiots! They actually said that out train would be late. We waited for a while. Then it came. We went to Malvern. In Malvern, we went to a pizza place; Malvern Pizza. We got a half sausage, half plain pizza. The sausages were pretty bad. After wards, we just walked around for a while a realized the place sucks. So we went to Wayne. At Wayne we went the theater. Damn, Kyle didnt have enough money for us all to see a movie. We casually walked in and walked past the ticket sellers! Free movie!! The only one we could see from start to end was The Time Machine. We waited for it to start with some middle schoolers deciding where to sit and Brittany Spears ads popping up all the time. Im not going to go through the plot of the movie, but Ill tell you that it really sucked. After the movie, we went to the train to go home. It was about 7:00 by then and dark. We walked through the tunnel that had Borna is God crossed out and went up the stairs. We saw the middle schoolers on the other side of the tracks. We got on the train. I dont know why, but that train ride was the most fun train ride Ive ever had. Kyle and I kept making fun of that stupid movie and Lesli talked to some guy with a laptop. She got off at her station and then we got off at ours. Kyle and I walked home and then saw my Mom. She questioned me, we played a little smash bros (and I won of course) and the end.
Mon Mar. 25 2002, 9:21pm: Being John Malcavetch was the weirdest movie I've ever seen for a long time. There's this building that has a 7 1/2 floor, made for a guy's midget wife. The only way to get on the 7 1/2 floor is to hit the emergency stop and use a crowbar to pull it open on the elevator. The 7 1/2 floor has very low ceilings and everyone thinks that you are hitting on them when you talk to them. I don't want to tell the rest of the movie but it is enertaining (and disturbing). So see it. Oh and Memento is also a great movie.
Sun Mar. 24 2002, 9:34pm: What?!? Two updates in one day?! This is unheard of!!
Sat Mar. 23 2002, 5:26pm: Today I worked from 8-1. That wasn't too bad. Afterwards, I went to kyle's house. We had a grand time. Originally we wanted to make a movie of us being weird and stuff but the battey didn't work. Instead, we called up jake and then went to the corporate center. On the way there we kept breaking reflectors that people have at the edge of their yards so the snow plows don't tear up their lawn. We cut through the woods, went over the bridge, and on to a road. Going up the road we found a bag of snow melting salt on the edge of someone's driveway. We poked it to death with sticks and carried it a hundred feet away, pouring salt everywhere. We continued walking and found glass bottles by the side of the road. We broke the bottles by throwing them on the road. I wonder if we popped anyones tires. After that we found a postcard with a beaver on it, I imediatly thought of nick bruno. Next we went up the path to the corporate center. On the path was a broken office supply sitting in the field. Someone must have taken it out of the office and beat it with a bat with rap playing in the backround (office space). We got to the corperate center and saw this lady driving a nice car really really fast through the parking lot. Every time she passed we yelled and jumped with our thumbs in the air. She stopped and said, "I'm heating up the oil (or something like that) I'm selling this car to someone. ok?" We just looked at her and then she sped away. Walking through the parking lot we found benches for me to grind on. Next we found a volley ball sand arena type thing. There was a plastic box concealing the volleyballs with a lock on it. We tried to break it with jake's skateboard but it didn't work. On the sand i wrote in big letters: F-U-C-K. That'll keep 'em from playing volleyball again. We walked further through the giant parking lot. We found some construction vehicals. Kyle opened one up (the other was locked). The keys weren't there. Rats. He pulled some of the levers and the big arm things slowly dropped. I got on it and it went faster. Then some guy saw us while kyle was hitting the vehical with a stick. He stopped. "Stop looking at us I said." He was to far away to hear me. Next we found a big pile of mulch. Jake tryed to do a backflip in it, he failed. We walked to the WaWa. Inside there was an Icee machine. Kyle and Jake both filled up cups with it, I filled up my mouth. The lady then said, "Are you going to buy something or are you just hanging out?" We left. Oh, and I got a bannana. The bannana was tasty. We went over to another building and found a ladder hanging 7 feet above the ground. We grabbed the bottom and pulled ourselves up, one at a time of course. On the roof we could see a road, cars, people and other things. I pee-peed into a drainage thing on the roof. Tee hee. Then we got down. We saw a public bus driver and asked him when the bus comes. He responded while walking into the WaWa, "Every hour, on the hour." We imagined what it would be like if we stole his keys and the bus, but we didn't. Kyle called his mom. The she took me home. Now here I am. The end. (that whole story was true and it was the longest update ever)
Fri Mar. 22 2002, 10:01pm: Spring break has officially begun
for me. I do, however, have to work 8-1 on saturday (my favorite shift) and
4-9 on sunday. Then 4-9 on monday and 4-9 on wednesday and 5 hours next saturday.
Geez, thats a lot of hours. Hmmm lets see... thats twenty-fives hours I just
typed about. $7 an hour times 25 hours =$175!!!! (then theres tax..) I'm going
to be rich. That car is closer every day.
Today I went to get coffee with the jailbreak crew. Confused? Me too. I don't
even like coffee. Oh well, it was fun anyway. Afterwards, me and 'the coolest
girl ever' watched office space. What a funny movie!!!
Hey you what are you doing?! This is my personal journal!! You can't read this!!
Stop! Stop! I command you!! Stop it now!!!! Ok, I'll just stop typing.....
Thurs Mar. 21 2002, 10:19pm: I just finished writing my story
for english. Historical fiction project. I had to take an event that took place
before I was born and make up characters and a story. I did the cuban missile
crisis (for those who don't know: that was when russia put nukes in Cuba to
launch at us. luckily agreements were made to stop that from happening. it was
the closest to nuclear war we've ever been)
Now i need to study for a spanish test. After 5th period, spring break will
have begun for me.
My middle brother chris is home from college, and not suprisingly, he went out
with his friends tonight.
Today was really nice weather. I now have a portrait of "coolest girl ever"
that i drew today. "coolest ever" made me spagetti (I think i spelled it wrong).
SPRING BREAK!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!
Wed Mar. 20 2002, 3:12pm: Spring has begun, with rain. I don't know if this rain is good or bad. Good beacuse we need water, bad because rainy days suck. Work today, mudders club tomorrow, friday I don't know yet, spring break: woo hoo!!! Big presentation in history today, test in spanish tomorrow, 10 page english paper due friday..... stressful week. I'm so glad I'm out of desktop publishing though. Once this week is over, I will be very happy. Spring break is gonna be great! I don't know what I'm going to do for spring break yet.
Tues Mar. 19 2002, 2:53pm: Today was pretty good. Everyone seems to be unhappy, so I guess not everyone feels the same as me. On the bright side, I dropped desktop publishing 7th period. Now I can go to free period with the coolest girl.
Mon Mar. 18 2002, 12:07pm: Here I am, in my last desktop publishing class. It's going to be quiet with me gone. Oh well. Last week was such a great week. I'm not going to say all of the specifics, but it wasn't a normal week where I work some days and go home and sit on the internet the other days. Hopefully spring break will be full of fun and.... umm..... fun. But not work, at least not too much work.
Sun Mar. 17 2002, 9:55pm: No jailbreak tonight.
Sat Mar. 16 2002, 9:31pm: Guys and dolls, we're just a bunch of crazy guys and dolls, la la la la la.... Today was fun. I went to Guys and Dolls w/Lesli and then afterwards got korean food. It was good, but it was more spicy than I'm used to. I wish I had interesting food.
Sat Mar. 16 2002, 11:43am: No work today. I usually work on saturday but not today. Yeah!!
Fri Mar. 15 2002, 3:18pm: Winter has come and gone, the weather slowly warms, trees grow new leaves, my happiness increases. Yes spring will be here on the 21st of March if I'm correct. On a completly different matter, today I work from 4 to 9pm. What fun. I'll be home at 9:15 at the latest, and I'll probobly be online..
Wed Mar. 13 2002, 3:04pm: Today I endured some more pain. I also disected an innocent frog. I asked Mr. Mariner if the frog went to heaven. He told me something under his breath so I'm still unsure. I hope the frog doesn't get mad that I played with his innards...
Tues Mar. 12 2002, 12:07pm: No school for me today. My hands are too cramped to hold a pencil. See Ben Affleck to the right? Do I look like him? People say I do.. I hope thats a good thing. Recently for some reason I haven't been as 'cheery' as I normaly am. It's probobly lack of sleep. I've stayed up late almost every night for the past few weeks. This weekend I'm going to get some good sleep... maybe. Anyway, wednesday at school I will be happy, I promise. I won't bother anyone about how I itch real bad. I'm going to make this a good week. Spring break is going to be awesome! I'm going to get to stay home from school everyday, watch "The Price is Right", eat soup and grilled cheese for lunch, spend my afternoon doing something random. It'll be like summer vacation except colder weather. Speaking of cold weather, why is it that we only got a little snow this year? It's almost April and we only got one snow storm! I can't wait too see what the future holds for me. Because the present is only a little fun.
Mon Mar. 11 2002, 3:04pm: Today was painful. I did complain too much about my poison ivy though. I didn't even realize it until skyler pointed it out. Oh well. No point of making everyone have to hear my suffering. It won't make it any better. It'll probobly be gone from my face tomorow. I really want school to end and summer to start. I don't know if next school year will be great or not. I've heard that junior year is the hardest. I will have a driver's licence in aug. and I'm buying my brother's car in sept. (only ask for a ride if you're not out of the way or if I like you) I've already promised one ride to school everyday. Thats three more in the back.
Sat Mar. 9 2002, 5:19pm: Today was the most incomfortable work ever. Someone gave me small pox, so now my face has a rash on it. It iched like hell the entire day. I hope it doesn't get worse and make me swell up.
Fri Mar. 8 2002, 11:40pm: Internet sleepover?
Fri Mar. 8 2002, 10:23am: English class. I just finished my RJ9 assignment. Now I can do whatever I want. Want hear something midly interesting? I think some people have way too many free periods. I only have one free period. Per. 3 day 2. Thats it! One free period! To tell the truth, I'm jelous. I want to have a good, solid, 6 day free period. I might drop desktop publishing (per. 7) because the class is nothing but stupid drills and boring assignment. The only cool kid in that class is Max Englander (and he's not really THAT cool....). He e-mailed me an assignmet we had, risking an F if Mrs.Wimer saw him e-mailing it. I'll have to leave him though.
Wed Mar. 6 2002, 9:45pm: Back from work... Hey! What the hell!?!?
Some arrogent, obnoxious 19-21 yr. olds came in today. They were being jerks
and running around the store. All of the women managers (they have too much
power) take things like that personally. The kids came up to the counter and
bought this and that. Then, oh my god! shhh.... cigarettes. I turned around
and grabbed the specific box she desired. I was just about to ask for I.D. when
one of the female managers called out, "I.D. Pete! Ask for I.D.!!!" She showed
ID, and she was old enough. The teens then yelled things at the managers as
they left like, "WE HAVE ID JERKS!" Pissed off about that, the managers kept
blaming it on me to release their anger. They wouldn't listen to my story. They
just assumed that I would never ask for it. Mike understood. Todd would have
understood. God I miss Todd, he was so cool.
Wed Mar. 6 2002, 3:29pm: I got 9 out of 6 on my spanish thingey. I'm
working my way up. My battleship drawing is complete. I used to hate it but
now I like it because I fixed the problems. Work is today. 4pm-9pm. I don't
have much homework so that's good. I'll be online after 9 probobly.
"We're still men right...(sniff)" "Yes, men is what we are." "Ok, you cry now."
Tues Mar. 5 2002, 3:32pm: Today wasn't that bad. I didn't have to go today for my spanish sentences so I get a whole 24hrs more to study (and I was already ready for it, so i can get a 10 out of 6). Right now I'm downloading music from kazaa. Damn, its so slow. I need to get a cable modem or something. Oh well.
Mon Mar. 4 2002, 2:56pm: Some days I just feel like an idoit and ask why I derserve such a burdon. I come in to school, go to math. Math was fine. Go to homeroom. Go to biology, what there's a test today? Oh yeah. Luckily Mr. Mariner lets us sort of cheat on the tests (or else I would have failed). After that gym class. Gym sucks. After that english. Oh crap! I forgot my journal! Oh well, I'll just turn it in on tues. for less points. Next is spanish. We took a test on friday. I didn't know if I did really good or really bad. Damn. I did bad. I did all of the stuff I knew, just backwards. Now I'm failing spanish. I don't really like failing classes. How about you? Next art, lunch, desktop publishing, then history. For homework I have to finish translating two pages from my spanish book (about 35min each), then finish my math, do my damn english journal, continue drawing for art and start a timeline for history (or else my partners will kill me). That's more then an hr. of homework. I'm only used to 45 min at the most. That's why I don't take honors classes, I never do my homework and almost never study. I'm fully capable of honors. I'm pethetic aren't I?
Sun Mar. 3 2002, 12:47pm: He's back! Back from snowboarding at Elk mountain. Yes, I may not be the best snowboarder out there but I still had fun tearing up the slopes. The trip was with my church. I got to the church parking lot (I got to drive there) and found 6th graders running around. I thought to myself, "Hmm maybe they are just coming with their parents to drop off their siblings." I was wrong. The trip went from exclusvly high school to both middle and high school. Well, I thought, "This isn't too bad. I mean they won't get in the way....." Wrong again. When we got to the house, that sat next to a half frozen lake, the 6th graders imediatly snagged the beds. I was pissed, and so were the rest of the high schoolers. After dinner, we went into the room and dragged them and their stuff out of the room. One of the kids started crying, so we just left him there and stopped. Kids these days. The next day we went to the mountain. I rented a board, then boarded. Ever since I started boarding (without any lessons from anyone mind you) I've had trouble turning without switching. I rind regular but I can only turn right, so I just switch and then turn left. It's kindof pethetic but it's the only way I can do it. Around 4 o' clock I went to the lodge, cause I was tired. I sat at the table and planned to rest for a second. Seconds became minutes, minutes became an hour and a half. I woke up when some stupid kid slammed the table and then ran off. I looked at the clock and found that I only had a 20 min. left. So my only choice was the board and boots. That really sucked. Anyway, nothing happened after that. I went home the next morning and here I am.
I wish I could have gone to first friday I philly. For those who don't know: first friday is the first friday of every month in philly, where the art galleries open for free and have food. FOOD!! Maybe next month. I hope there is a jailbreak tonight. Wow what a long update. See ya!
Fri Mar. 1 2002, 3:17pm: Today I'm going to leave to go snowboarding. Well actually I heard that there is no snow in the pocanoes, so i will have to snowboard on man made snow. Iceboarding if you will. I'm really exited to go to guatamala this summer. I'll finally get to put that spanish 3 to good use. I'm gonna bring the 'vance to the ski trip and boston. Maybe I'll bring the gamecube to boston, but I found out that they check everyone's bags to make sure they don't bring drugs. I know! I'll just hide my gamecube inside a brownie. Then noone will know.... heh heh heh........
Thurs Feb. 28 2002, 4:43pm: Drugs. What's wrong with people
and their addiction to weed? Some people I know (not friends) just got caught
last week, up the street from my house, selling. It's ridiculous. I always find
it depressing when I find people I've known for a while getting caught up in
this crap. It doesn't make me hate the person or anything, it just sits there
in the back of my mind.
On a lighter notre, I went to mudders club and made a pretty good mound on the
wheel. After that I picked up the head I made last semester and walked to the
post office with lesli and her sister. On the way, I dropped the head. After
that we took the train to dalesford, without paying. "Do you have the money?"
the lady asked. "Ummm no, we don't have money." we responded. "Well, next time
you get on, bring money." It's kindof funny, they can't do anything about it
if you're planning to get off at the next stop anyway. I got off the train and
we went our seperate ways. The end.
Wed, Feb 27 2002, 9:58pm: On thursday, I will have an informative write up on the minotees. What are they you ask? Well, I'll tell you on thursday. Only me, my manager and Randy Long posses the knowledge of these mistical creatures. Today, I made a new section devoted to the sport: Freestyle Walking. In freestyle walking, the athlete must run, jump and grind objects found in his walking path. It's fun and requires jumping skill and a pair of soaps.
Tues, Feb 26 2002, 3:04pm: Today, I went around school with a camera and had pictures taken of me jumping over things. I like to jump, far and high.
Mon, Feb 25 2002, 7:42pm: Right now I'm watching my favorite episode of seinfield. It's the one where Jerry goes to the car dealership to get a good deal because Elane's boyfriend is a car dealer and he constantly asks for a high five so Elane gets annoyed about thus and dumps him but Jerry has to keep them together just so he can get a good deal and George is very hungry but the donuts keep getting eaten so he goes to the vending machine and his dollar bill is too crinkled so Jerry gives him a good dollar bill and he uses it but the twix doesn't come out so he gets a man to help him and comes back and finds that someone took the last two twix so George gets really mad because twix is the only candy bar with the cookie crunch and during this Kramer takes a dealer to test a car but the gas is running low but they keep driving. It was that episode.
Sun Feb. 24, 2002 8:56am: Sorry for the lack of updates in the recent days. But actually, you should be thanking me because I'm redoing any page with a large amount of pictures on it to make it load faster. They're called thumbnails. Also, all of these pictures you can click on to take you to a link with a larger resolution. Yeah!!!! Soon I'm going to get Super Mario World on the 'vance. What a great game! It'll take me back in time to the 2d era when videogames were great. As soon as Metroid 4 makes it to GBA, I will fall to the fall and foam with burst forth from my mouth. (i will be happy)
Wed, Feb 20 2002, 4:00pm: Today I added a guestbook to the site. It needs some html work though. As soon as I can find a way to make it not so many links and stuff, then I will change it. Until then, we will all just have to suffer.
Tues, Feb 19 2002, 2:05pm: Hey wait a second; shouldnt I be
at school right now? No, because I was sick. Last night I had a fever. It was
terrible. When you sleep with a fever, everything is really messed up. The whole
time I kept having this messed up dream where I had to move this giant ball
to the end of the field. In another dream, I was driving a car and shifting
gears constantly. The last dream I was fighting in some battle with guns. The
really messed up part was that all of these dreams seemed to be happening at
the same time. When you have a fever, your subconscious goes haywire. These
dreams were not fun at all, because the whole time you think you are awake lying
in bed. Trust me, if you ever sleep with a fever, the same kind of stuff will
happen to you.
What the hell!? I keep hearing all of these weird noises in my house. Thump,
thump. I guess its my dog, buddy, but he usually sleeps all day.
Sun, Feb 17 2002, 11:50pm: Why are you reading this? Don't you have anything better to do then look at some stupid website?
Sun, Feb 17 2002, 9:18am: Well, I got my permit yesterday. I haven't driven a car yet. To all who will get their permit: just look over the drivers book a few times, don't go crazy studying for this thing. It's actually mostly common sense. Today, there will be minor updates, (if any at all) because I don't know what to put up next.
Thurs, Feb 14 2002, 2:49pm: I just got home from school. Yesterday at work was the worst possible day ever. I worked until 10:00pm and there was no shortage of customers at all. You see today is valentines day and people needed to get their chocolates and cards, and I need to sell it to them. Now that the rush is over I can get clearance prices on candy! So in a week or so, expect me to come to school with some sort of candy to give away. And don't be afraid to ask for some. Today I didn't even get rid of all of my jolly ranchers.
Wed, Feb 13 2002, 3:17pm: I have work today.... bleehhhh. My manager is gone, I can't tell you why though. He was a really nice guy. Today I got replica pictures of Greg Diamond and Joey Burnside. Ha ha ha ha ha!
Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2002 3:39pm: AMAZING! I got some pictures uploaded today thanks to Chris DeSolis. But there are still more to come!
Mon, Feb 11 2002, 6:16pm: Today I had some pictures taken of random people to put on my website. A few minutes after I was done I went to class. I was in desktop publishing and I rememberd that I forgot my sketchbook. So I went down the hallway, fast, to get it before it was lost/stolen. As I was speed walking I noticed that the phone (near the bus circle) started ringing. I instinctivly picked up the phone and said "Hello?" The guy on the other line mumbled, "Is this (can't understand what he said)?" I said, "What?" He repeated himself and I still didn't understand but I played along and just said, "No *click* this Conestoga....." He hung up the phone at 'no' which was disapointing. I wanted to carry out a conversation with the strange man but he was gone from my life, gone..... gone.................gone. Anyway, I picked up my sketchbook and lived happily ever after.
Sun, Feb 10 2002, 9:15: I was just watching 'The Simpsons' and I have to say that it was so terrible. That show has been slowly going down hill for the last year and a half. Anywho, no updates tonight. Just this stupid thing you're wasting your time reading. As soon as I can find a way to get a digital camera to take pictures of people, when they are off guard, I will put their pictures on my site to embarass them / make them feel they are important for being on the 'information super highway.'
Sat, Feb 9 2002, 10:17: I just got back from a good jailbreak/ mafia/ look-at-stars-and-spin-around game. Anyway it's fun and not what you would think. I got grass stains and scrapes, its that kind of fun. Anyway, as I said earlier today, work sucks. The nicest lady came in to get money orders, and the machine printed one and then broke. She waited for 20 minutes and wasn't complaning at all. She finaly left to come back later when it was fixed. After an hour, the managers fixed it and she got her money orders (about $1000 worth.) She didn't complain at all, she just smiled and thanked us. People like that make are really great because the rest of the day you get main line, yuppie, bastards, who can't spare more than 5 minutes with a teenager who doesn't conform to society. Those are the people who I can't stand. It turns out that tommorow I can't go snowboarding because there is no snow in the poconoes. Damn it!! I was really looking forward to going. Special trips like that just don't seem to happen in high school. Everyone is always busy doing whatever. That's why jailbreak is so great. It's out of the ordinary of what you usually do during the week. Something to look forward to during class.
Sat, Feb 9 2002, 11:13am: Oh shit! I have to work from 12 to 5 today! Work sucks. Whoever reads this: don't go get a job ever! Because every day you work makes you not want to come back even more. One day at CVS, where I work, a lady wanted to get a DVD for the price of a VHS. She was reading the sign wrong and didn't want to be convinced otherwise. So she left and said I was 'incompetant'. So then I jumped over the counter and ran through the automatic doors. I picked up a rock from the ground and yelled, "You want to see incompetance bitch?!" And I threw the rock at her forehead as she turned around. A huge dent appeared on her head. She fell to the ground and her children were forced to carry her home. I thought: "yes!" Just like Kevin from Home Alone. Anyway work sucks and I have to go now!
Friday, Feb. 8 2002 4:00pm: OK! I'm starting a new daily update
journal thingey. I didn't make up the idea though. I probobly won't update tommorow
because of work and the possibility of jailbreak. Jailbreak: a game of skill
in which you must free prisoners of war from their p.o.w. camp. Anyway, after
that there is nothing noteworthy for the rest of the day. But! On sunday i get
to go snowboarding for the first time in at least a year with Kyle Toomey, Nick
Bruno and Zach Klein... I hope I will be able to catch up with them, because
they won't wait. I'm listening to "The Bends" right now, its a very good album.
maybe my favorite. in the future of my site i hope to add more animations, pictures,
funny shit, people i know, links and plenty of curse words!!!!!!
