DAYS LEFT UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY
DAYS LEFT UNTIL IT'S 5 YEARS AFTER MY MOM SAID "IN 5 YEARS" IN RESPONSE TO "CAN I TAKE THE CAR TO THE GAME AND TAILGATE?" BE THERE!
We have the internet again in here! Nice! Now if only there was stuff to do on it...
I did beat up on F-Zero-GX's master class and unlocked the AX Cup. And I should be picking up my bike later. There's also the matter of blood loss in me. There's a pint less of it in me now...but I got this nifty little pin that looks like a drop of blood if you just ignore the red cross in the middle of it. (Yay blood drive!) If them folks are right, my pulse is 50 bpm...I think that's good.
For now, SWE picnicing time. Later!
Just helped someone who had no java experience get done what was basically the third CS2 lab...why he was assigned that with so little knowledge, I don't know, but it feels good to know I helped someone learn on a real level today.
Otherwise...Monday had running and rain and Brittany's apartment...I need to lend Alex X6...THE FOOL NEVER PLAYED IT! Tuesday consisted of no fencing but me getting many checks worth lots of money. Today I should be depositing them and maybe buying a bike if they go through today?
People have been comunicating in subtle ways of late and I never pick up on that stuff....ah well. I'm just here for the ride.
The music at the end of F-Zero GX's story is recoculous....sooo corny.
I'm serious though, nothing new is happening. Later!
That's about it. Though there was the rest of Friday that I haven't mentioned here yet. Mainly the part where me Jon and Tay sold our souls to SWE. Who knows, maybe this will look good at some point in the future...it's a better reason for joining than "Brittany said to" and "Society of Women!...Engineers" anyway. COME TO ROCHESTER AND AMUSE ME DURING MY 6 HOUR BREAKS!!!
Oh yeah, I need to check out Gracies (read: main freshman eatery on campus) for the credit card folks...if I am going to get a credit card with a bull sh*t balance to build up credit, I may as well get something free while I'm at it.
Also filed under complaints: Central AC vents placed in the shower. I mean, Hot showers + cold ventilation sucks. Ahhh, warm back...ACK! Cold stomach!
Later!
Except for the fact that I beat F-Zero-GX on Expert! But otherwise I hate when people don't tell me things, like they're not using netscape this year and we didn't set up their email accounts so they have to do it themselves, and the printer's in ICL3, and lp doesn't work use lpr, and Misic won't be giving you their accounts like Howles did last year, this year you have to go and hunt down Heliotis, who ran the meeting and neglected to say anythign about it then (read: the CS1 lab coulda been better), and Ian went home for a bit leaving me and Jon without a car, and Rochester busses suck (about 8 total run past our place daily...16 if you count the fact that its both ways). On the other hand, I did find out that it takes an hour to walk a round trip to the local Tops super market...and I got their discount super preffered shopper bonus card type thing. Eerie thought though...on the walk back the moon was a blood red.
Today I'm on campus without classes. Why? Cause it's more fun than being isolated. Plus there's a SWE meeting I've been dragged into...but whatever. I like societies, I like women, and I guess I like engineers, so I guess it's all good (besides, the membership's already mostly male). Hats off to Steve for driving me and Jon. I also took care of monitary issues and bought half my text books; the ones I have to read for history (CS texts can wait) (OO! I used a semicolon!).
Ah well. Nothing's really happening. Mom's being a batch about the car and not telling me what I need to know about it to find insurance for it. You know...I'm just going to use my money from the scholarship to buy a bicycle. One hour to Tops on foot and back, probably an hour to RIT (I don't have to shop there)...figure you go 10x as fast on a bike...well, no, that's wrong, maybe only 5x, cause it certainly wouldn't be a 6 minute bike ride. Ah well, my course is clear! Later!
One day, at the CS1 labbie meeting...
Yes folks, that's right. There's a new band of super geeks in town! The Miscilanious five! Chosen by fate to be labbies under Miscilanious himself, these brave wariors defend campus from all that is good and true! Using the powers of java and the fearsome metal monstrocity known only as SENTINAL, nothing can stand in their way!
Speaking of which, I have to run my first lab of the year today. I'm working for some guy called Miscilanious. And to quote Beck, "STOP BEING TOXIC!" Later guys.
You know, if I talk to someone for like an hour or so, I end up talking like them for the next half hour. I just picked up a hint of Prof. White in my voice. And Tino's insanity rubs off on me far too easily. Ian's too to a lesser degree. It takes a little while for this effect to wear off. I'm like Rogue or something, except I only need to listen to them to gain personality traits rather than touch them to gain energy/power. It would also describe...other recent happenings I think. Maybe that's why I could be anyone's friend...I could just be anyone. Dude, I should be that pretender guy from the old NBC series except not get cancelled.
Also:

You have a surprise kiss! Your partner is always
pleasantly pleased to have you jump outta no
where to dote them with a fun peck on the cheek
or more passionate embrace. super markets and
work places are your favorite places to attack
your loved one with all your love =p
What kind of kiss are you?

I decided today would be agood day to wear flip flops around campus. And, really, it was! I'm enjoying it. But I did want to bring sneakers and gym stuff anyway to do stuff during that 6 hour break that I have. Damn sneakers wouldn't fit. So of course I didn't bring them along. Wouldn't ya know that later today I ran into someone who said "I need to go to the gym later." If only I had them I COULD HAVE PREVENTED SOME OF THE 6 HOURS OF THE NOTHINGNESS!!!!! Bah. And I still need a car. Sigh.
Otherwise, things are just dandy =). I'm running into a bunch of people randomly in my travels of campus and talking and wow I'm becoming somewhat talkative. Letting go is fun. I need to feel this way more.
For the record, the rest of yestreday was spent stalking Brittany and Kat(?) hanging up SWE posters. I think I might go simply to go somewhere on Friday...and besides, I'm told women will be there. You never know...
Flynn out...10 internetless days left. Maybe I should start calling random people at night now...well, not random, but some of them anyway. That and...F*CK! I just remembered where my lock is...at home...but then again, they rent locks for free in the gym...hurray! Problem found and solved within 5 seconds!
The person who's not supposed to be in my dreams showed up there again, but this time I said to "Fuck off" as said person approached, rather than doign the normal thing in my dreams...something friendly. Go subconcious!
Teachers this quarter here = good, same, good, good, bad. There will be much work though...ah well, I've had worse.
The lesson for the day: make sure your oragano shaker actually has oneof those covers with holes on top before shaking out the oregano. You might end up with Oregano balls instead of meatballs.
Beck came over this weekend after much yelling. Happy days! (Curse this keyboard, shift doesn't work well...) We didn't do all that much, but Brittany came over too and then much fun was had by all. And contrary to the QOTD up there, I was not trying to mack it to her, she just used my bed. Highlights of the visit involved cookie eating and flaming wagons of a sort. Soon she'll either come back or get kidnapped over here, one of those =).
Twelve days remain reffers to the lack of internet at the appartment. For twelve days the internet won't be available to us. 'Til then, I'm updating from the CS building, which won't let me leave comments in live journals for some reason. Ah well...
In a related story, 25 days left until october 3rd, the best day of the year...
MEGA MAN X7!
And yeah, people need to stop making assumptions about me, like I'm mad at someone. I'm not, things just change. And besides, using the words "Why do you still do that when you know I'm right." when it's about an opinion is not the most endearing thing to do... and by people I mean person. Later folks!
Jets play tonight. Must channel anger into the Jets defense to stregnthen it...or something.
A little tired (shoulda slept more last night), a little hungy, and a littl in need of cash. Ah well...the floor has become rather comfy...zzzzzz.

LXG was okay, nothing to write home about.
After movie there was a Brittany a Jon an Ian and a Flynn at Brittany's. There it was determined that Ian made the most sense out of all of us because he's most likely to do something insane all the time. Jon on the other hand is confusing, and Brittany and myself fall somewhere in between. And when I try to think of reasons why...my head hurts.
I hate it when you get used to talking to one person a lot and then you stop and all of a sudden it's like...there's a void. Sigh...stupid sources of confusion. Maybe Brittany's right and I should just get the operation and become less confused...nah, that's dumb. Whatever the case though, my head hurts right now...must figure out if my head's right or not, and what to do if it is so as to cause minimal injury inducing ideas in others...BAH.
I saw the new appartment, looks good. Needs more internet though...it'll be lacking that until the 20th. Until then, if you ever need to get in touch with me or Jon or Ian (why wound you want to do that anyway???) use the cell phone. For now though, it's just me at the old place. Can't live at the new place just yet, my bed's here! It's just me, everyone else left for the Great Wide Canadias.
I spent the day at the new place, bringing essentials over (read: Game cube, cables, remotes, and a VCR). After sampling F-Zero GX (a fine game, it's like F-Zero X but slightly better game play and much better graphics and a ton of modes I haven't played yet), it was me watching Ian make a dresser and Jon play Smash. Wasn't sure if I could get Ian to drive me back and I didn't want to disturb him so I just chilled, which was alright. I'm gonna miss talking to people online for 16 days...I'll figure something out. Time to break out the D&D books and actually plan this campaign I guess.
Until then, write down my cell phone number! It'll be in the profile, which will be available for a few days still. Ah well...enjoy life folks, I'll be around. Flynn out!
I think it took all of 2 minutes for me to fall asleep last night. That was beautiful! That you whatever made that happen.
Got hair cut, talked to people, thought more bad thoughts...I need to find out some things for certain before I should allow my brain to continue this train of thoguht, but it's going to anyway. SIGH!
Saw Jon and Ian...somehow surviving their first day in one place. Gave them a TV to help them survive.
This is gonna be a crazy year, that's all I know. Later.
We were going to be forced to pay a lot to replace the carpet in our old apartment, *gasp*, but then, we went to Home Depot and rented the Rug Doctor Steam Cleaner with the Vibrating Brush. Thanks to it, we won't be paying anything for carpet damages =).
In other news...Jon should note the change of a 95% chance to a 99% chance, people that are told to stay out of my dreams should do so, and CS labs should be more like the one in my dream...at least in terms of the non-zero number of women in them. More news as nothiing happens.
Got to Rochester on Wednesday.
Went to the first fancy restaurant I remember existing in this city Thursday night. Note to self...go there with a pretty lady one night.
Friday was dull. Went to the legendary Tahoe's...and man did that sausage suck!
Today Saturday was moving day. Done. Still broed up here, but sutff's getting done. I'm thinking two things right now...but I don't think I want to put either of them here. The first because I've been bitching about it all summer anyway. The second because as nice as that might be, it'd cause a major bad thing that I'd be opposed to anyway...and besides, it'd be going against stuff I've already said anyway (no, Shari, neither of these involve you =P). The three of us iin one place could get interesting...unless that happens, which would just start making things weirder. I think too much if you haven't figured it out already. Simply put, (A long series of initials that was only put here in the first place because many of them of different people are the same was here, but since it'd be figured out by the parties involved anyway it has been removed. But, to be fair, I think only two people who read this site would recognize it anyway, and only one might be able to figure it all out.). I'm not even sure what that mess of initials means anymore...I don't even know why I'm typing this, ah well. I need an inner monologue. Too much Tino has rubbed off on me. Too much everyone has. I need a me and not an everyone else. Don't listen to these ramblings, just send money to Happy dude will ya?
ANYWAY
Monday I might be moving again. I think everyone here WANTS me to be moving again (I'd actually like to be too) but I donno if that'll be possible unless this Kevin chap gets his ass in gear and gets me outta this apartment. ANd I need Joe to get whoever to send up a permission slip, I donno if he did that yet. In fact, I don't even know what I need for the new place!!! I shoudl have my mom send something like that up as a precaution before I'm in apartment limbo for a few days...
That all spat out, I'm going upstairs. My matress is hiding up there, and I think I should collapse on it before I say something else stupid. Unfortunately, there's no light in that room yet AND the matress is curently stood up against a wall. Silly me.
And oh yeah. I have to conserve the juice now since we've gotta pay the bills now. I've also gotta stop doing that thing I said I keep doing at some point a while ago, normal human nature or no. One normal thing that's good for me is bad for someone else. SAVE ME FROM MY MADNESS!!!!! (my silly madness folks, nothing serious here). If you have thought inhibitting drugs, send those along with the money. Night!
How ghetto is my mini van?
Several times of late I've noticed that putting it in reverse causes it to cease moving. It doesn't even more at the 2 miles an hour it's supposed to when not being given gas. Not even downhill! So, when I wanted to go backwards today, what did I do?
Did I make sure I was in the right gear? Maybe give it some gas? Maybe I was just a fool and still had the brake pushed a bit...
Nah, I just leaned forward and then slammed myself backwards against the chair a few times. That got it rolling. Heh.
Oh yeah, it's now 4:15 and I'm doing laundry before packing. I should also gather the video games. The Cube's in it's place, but the rest...hmm...Watch out Rochester. I've got an NES!!!

SPORTS REPORT BAH!
