Automotive Games Reading http://vastikan.blogdrive.com/archive/27.html Mon, 06 Sep 2004 00:29:59 GMT I have decided to switch full time over to live journal, because I like it more. www.livejournal.com/users/hiding_in_a_box should be the address. feel free to comment, either positive or negative, in that one. http://vastikan.blogdrive.com/comments?id=27 http://vastikan.blogdrive.com/archive/26.html Sun, 22 Aug 2004 07:21:36 GMT Woohoo! Im updating twice in a week. I'll start with a little ol' work update. Thats all my life revolves around right now. Everyone is quitting, which is sad. At the same time, everyone is glad, because now we can all put the boardwalk behind us. I'll probly end up there again during winter, but going to try and find something better. On thursday, three of us swam across the water, like we said we would. The others all bailed out, and surprisingly, they were all guys, who even took bets on whether I would too or not. If y'all have known me, then of course i was in.(See: Thailand trip and...

Heres my recent excuses: Telling myself I'll update after my doc appt(twice), Work is taking up too much time(many times), Hanging out with friends including CECILIA(hah! I didnt forget), also used that one a few times. But in the end, it all boils down to the same ol thing, QT is L-A-Z-Y. Im working on fixing that, but these things take time, or so I pretend. Anyways.. whats up with QTs life? Did he die of hernias? Nope, Im alive and mostly well, though I swear Im slowly falling apart. Doc says itd be...

Unfortunately, I ended up breaking the rule I never wrote. Then again, there were a few things I wasn't counting on that happened.. Now, I've been given limitations to what I can do. Anyways, theres good news and bad news. Lets start with the good. Good: 1. Since my last update, my dad hasn't had another stroke. Or at least none big enough to notice or any that we are aware of. Thats on top of my Good things list. 2. I was forced to slow down...

I've got a great outline of a watch on my wrist after a cloudless fourth of july. Thats what I get for volunteering to work 14 hours on the busiest day of the year. Saw Spiderman 2, the supposed 'best comic turned movie ever'. It was good, but not nearly that good. I laugh when people whine about the credibility of movies like that. Its a COMIC. Its supposed to be cheesy. By the way, Dad ended up in the ER room. They did a couple hundred thousand tests on him, but havent come up with anything. Pretty frustrating when you see my dad doing something as...

A couple of thoughts(working on shortening my posts) -Work: Got rehired at Kemah. I complain along with everyone else about heat, boredom, stupid people etc, but the truth is, it aint so bad. Ive met quite a few new people and enjoy hanging around them. even if it means i have to keep my foot on a pedal every second of the way for 8ish hours. -Summer School: eh heh. Was planning on taking Economics 1, but I dont remember the deadline, and havent really tried to figure it all out. -Wisdom: Teeth removed. That sucked for weeks. ...

The End: Its the end of the school year, end of finals, and most notable, the end of my stay in Lubbock for months. Its also the end of having Mechanical Engineering as my major, but I'll get into that in a second. Finally, finals have ended. The staying up thing and studying and studying..and a bite to eat between studying and slee- oh wait, none of that.. Overall I was pretty happy with my overall performance. I thought I did pretty well in 3 of 4 exams. I kind of slacked off on studying...

One can conversation with your parents can shove you 10 steps forward, especially when you unconsciously take a few backwards. Thanks. function doPrint () { if (document.all) { // IE // See MLRead: when we write into the iframe's document using // document.write(), on IE we don't close the document because // it sometimes causes IE5.5 to hang. But not closing prevents // IE from printing the document. So we just close it here. document.close(); ...

It is of course the quiet before the storm. A wave of the inevitable. Im tested over my ability to retain information from my 'easy' classes and Im also being tested over my ability to make decisions. Hopefully I make the right one tomorrow, and I wont regret the path that I take. No matter what, Im determined to reach my goal, although I think it will take a lot longer than I figured. A lot of studying ahead of me... Past few days - Thurs. and Friday were all about HFH. We had some fun putt-putting...

Its gone. So I'll summarize....later. You can hear more about my lovely week when it ends and I dont feel like studying. Hopefully it will be a bit better by then. In lighter news, I stole this from Mary.(Congrats on survivng finals week!). I've determined I'll only admit to three of them being close to true. I like putting in random things, it entertains me when I need to distract myself from awful things like sleep. *Looks down at the time and laughs, then remembers roomie...
