Yay, new page.
And Wind, she needs a big camera, it's the only way she can get some things in the frame.

Oh, that awards thing I missed?
I missed getting 2 plaques (Tri-Athlete award [playing sports every season of HS], and the Varsity Coaches award), a silver Seiko watch, a varsity letter, and my certificate for the all academic team.

[preventerWIND]

Today was sloooow day, went to the mall, came back home, brawl'd.

Also.

GET EQUIPPED WITH! CLASSIC CONTROLLER!

[Fatso]

Your next step should be to get equipped with Castlevania IV unless of course you have a SNES edition already. Liek, srsly.

[AlexThePenguin]

I swear that I did NOT mean to post that image in this thread, or that huge. Sorry guys, I think my internet went wonky.


Another surprise bus day. D:

[Mikero]

Been picking up extra shifts at work, so today I worked 10-6. Walked to the bus in the pouring rain with no umbrella, or hoodie, or anything like that. Eventually got home soaked. Cancelled plans to go to sketch night and then to see Indy. Feel #####. Starving. Bad allergy day. Gonna go eat now.

OH, AND IS THIS BETTER, MIKE? (And I didn't make these, I found them ages ago.)

Yes, actually. Although I don't know why Wario should be so favoured.

[Vinchenz Rock]

I went to work for seven hours, like usual...

But now I get nine days off for absolutely no reason. It's a nice rest. :D

I also gave my boss the notice that I'm quiting in July.

[Winged Warrior]

I spent all night last night working on my Top100 Incentive for this month, coding it into my site, and working on my Top100 profile. Advertised to a few friends online, then slept for an hour before being awoken by my neighbour's music. Got  up, got some mountain dew, chatted a little, went back to bed when the noise stopped, cat wanted attention, Finally fell asleep. Got up around 2:00, Opal got home a half an hour later. Worked on the DND campaign a little, Worked on the next update on Doam a little, Posted on the "how was your day? Thread" with a compound sentence, and then eventually went to bed.

Tuesday was a long day.

[preventerWIND]

ew.. what a geek.. you actually drink Mountain Dew?..

Well, I just finished posting a personal ad for a summer job on the net, hopefully soon I'll have enough monies to buy my own Wii, clothes, work out gear, new shoes, etc.. and maybe a motor scooter once I get my licence.. I can see it now.. Driving down the street with goggles, a scarf and a pilots helmet.. that'd be so winduh..

Other than that, I'm probably not gonna be on Brawl today. I played a lot yesterday and when I went to sleep I woke up later on in a sweat, I dreamt about brawl.. happens when I play games too much..

[Vinchenz Rock]

You're going to have to save up for quite a few months then.

[preventerWIND]

Yeah, I probably won't even go for a moped. Just a fun thought, just some transportation would be nice ;_;

And I heard about the police station hiring people to mow the lawns and junk. It'd pay great since it's a city job.

[Johncarllos]

Do it.

Also, Bicycles work great.

[preventerWIND]

I'm talking long distance traveling, but then again, a moped wouldn't be great for that either..

[ASR]

I spent the last 24 hours at Western Michigan University for Freshmen Orientation.

I'm really excited, it was fun and interesting. I'm ready for college.

Also, I found out they make Heelies my size and I'm so close to snapping and just getting a pair.

[Johncarllos]

Of course they make them in children's size!

[Mikero]

They ONLY make them in children's size!

ew.. what a geek.. you actually drink Mountain Dew?..

BARRRRF!

Can't stand that crud, and a couple of my friends think it's great. They clearly have removed all their tastebuds with like... hot teas, and licking poles in the winter, and cheese grating their tongues. What? People do that!

[ASR]

It's not horrible, but I'm not too fond of it.

AND ENOUGH WITH THE SHORT JOKES
I GET ENOUGH OF THEM FROM PEOPLE WHO CAN PHYSICALLY SEE ME

[Johncarllos]

I don't hate mountain dew, but I'd rather have Moxie or Dr. Pepper any day.

[Lunchebox]

It's not horrible, but I'm not too fond of it.

AND ENOUGH WITH THE SHORT JOKES
I GET ENOUGH OF THEM FROM PEOPLE WHO CAN PHYSICALLY SEE ME

No need to get so short with us.

[ASR]

I'm racist against tall people... you filthy biggers!

[Johncarllos]

I'm not size-ist.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Today...
I went to Gamestop looking for Mario Kart Wii, they were sold out.
I saw Metal Gear Solid 4 adds everywhere, they made me sad.
A former schoolmate of mine was working the counter and he informed me that MGS4 was going to be released tonight. (16 minutes ago)
So yeah, then I went home and spontaneously bought Pokemon Ranch...
E'yup, this is a sad day for me.

[NovaMan XP]

And why did you do that...?

[Abominator]

Today was surprisingly better than recent days.

But now I have to do 4 hours of overtime at work.

Booo...

[ASR]

So I was eating at Olga's.

And I did something wonderful.

I ordered a Coke.

The waitress said, "I'm sorry, we only serve Pepsi products, is that okay?"

So I slowly turned to face her with a stony look in my eyes.

And genius struck.

"NO! NO, IT'S NOT FREAKING OKAY! THIS IS A SERIOUS FREAKING PROBLEM!"

It was actually pretty loud, but not like, outrageously loud. And I had the perfect straight face.

My friends laughed, and then the waitress laughed, and then I broke down and laughed.

She gave me a free Pepsi.

Then I decided I wanted Root Beer and that wasn't free so I just kept the Pepsi.

[Johncarllos]

That's awesome.
I'd wanna see a video of that.

I raised over 100 dollars for a fund raiser today.
I only need 200 more, I'm at 300.
500 gets a watch and 300 is the bare minimum.
This all goes toward the Shriner's Hospitals so I can play in the state East v. West football game this summer.

Anybody wanna send me a few bucks to get your name in the program as a sponsor?
I'll take pictures of your name in the program when it comes out

[ASR]

Looking back, the actual order of people laughing went friends, me, waitress as opposed to what was originally posted. But I'm pretty sure it was obvious I was joking.

I got a haircut today, it's too short. Reminds me of military school days.

I also went to the dentist. I have to get my wisdom teeth removed within the year.

[Vinchenz Rock]

I never have to get my wisdom teeth removed. :D

[Chron]

I only ever had two wisdom teeth.
Mother had four and father had none.

(4 + 0) / 2 = 2
The laws of genetics are now clear to me.

Today I went to Wendy's and had pizza and did absolutely nothing.
Enjoying my last free days before I have to hunt for a job and am horribly oppressed.

[ASR]

Today I hung out with a friend who's moving to Florida tomorrow. It sucks, but she's the first of many I'll have to say goodbye to, so I might as well get used to it. I'm the only one of my core group of friends going to Western Michigan, we're all sort of branching out to different colleges and such.
Sure, we'll still keep in touch, but realistically, this summer is the last time we'll be all in one place at the same time for a while. You know what I mean.

Goodbyes suck.

[Mikero]

I worked all day and 4 hours of it were stolen from me by a frienemy who decided to hang out and talk at me the whole time even though I was hot, sticky, allergied, and totally not into it. And now my NBA team isn't doing so hot.

[ASR]

My day was sadder.

[Chron]

Florida, huh? I feel sorry for her. This is a horrible state to live, and if she's still in public school, she's in for a wild ride.
By which I mean free ride.

Goodbyes are no good though. Had to see one of my buddies off to the Middle East a while ago, but internet keeps you in touch.
That's the thing, though. Stay in touch.
but you know that

[Mikero]

ASR, your day was fully of dick eating 'cause YOU were in it!

Yesterday I bought NBA Street Vol. 3. And it rules.

[Johncarllos]

You found a copy?
Sweet.

[Mikero]

Pre-owned at EB. First place I went when I went hunting for it. $14.⁹⁹.

[ASR]

It's really funny because Mario and Luigi and Peach are so disproportioned to the other character models that it makes the game seem so ridiculous and awesome if anyone's using them. But nobody ever uses them more than once, since the novelty of their inclusion wears off quickly.

ALSO NBA STREET VOL. 3 INSTANTLY MAKES ANY DAY LESS SAD AND THUS I AM STILL THE WINNER

[Mikero]

That was YESTERday.

And I've played against that team in a pick-up game twice, and will never pick them as opponents again as they are wankers.

[ASR]

BUT YOU STILL OWN IT TODAY

[Mikero]

Yeah... Yeah I do. :-)

And my team just made the biggest NBA Finals come back for a single game in history. Hopefully they'll hold the lead in the last minutes of the game.

Right now, I'm trying to find quotes or whatever you'd call them of the little Rich Medina voice-overs in NBA Street vol. 3 that go on all dramatic and poetic about each court. Like I said, I know their done by Rich Medina but that's all I can find.

Posted on: 12 June 2008, 23:38:48

Hopefully they'll hold the lead in the last minutes of the game.

And they did. :-D

[ChaosVortex]

Today, I found out exactly how much my friend's girlfriend really likes me.

To put it in quotes, "My God, it's almost like she's horny for you. She wants to see you ALL the time."

Flattered, but I think we're still just friends.

[ASR]

Sounds risqué and kinky.

Kinqué!

[Johncarllos]

Yeah... It's that with me and ALL girls.
I hear it all the time.
They want my hawt bod.

[Vinchenz Rock]

This morning I woke up and heard that one of the students at my High School had died in a car crash... He was 19, drove his own car, and came from the very small town of ----port.

...The description matched with one of my best friends.

I thought the worst... I was going insane... I couldn't sleep (school was closed because of the crash, I could've went back to sleep), I took a bath and laid there for two hours...

Then I desperately wanted to go on the Internet... It was the only way to know for sure...

It wasn't him. I've never felt so much relief in life...

But still, it sucks for the friends and family of this student... Second death of a student in three years now... I hope no one else dies... The stress of thinking your best friend died was so much... And I don't want anyone else feeling worse.

[Jakey]

Yeah dude that sucks.  I understand how you feel.  At least I think I sorta do.  It's the worst when you can't find out anything about the situation, and so your brain is left to imagine all horrible kinds of scenarios.  Glad it wasn't your friend though.

Saw the Hulk last night, went back to my friend's house, played GTA4, snuck back home about 4:45 AM.  I was sooo freaking beat, man.  Planning on seeing The Happening today with my girl and her family, should be fun.

I lead such an interesting and fun-filled life, don't I?

OH, I got a new iPod.  It's one of them newer Nanos, pretty snazzy. Got it in black.  Mmhm.

[ChaosVortex]

I woke up after having... a MMM-related dream. Sorta.

In the dream, this girl said she wanted to go out with me, but I had to wear a tuxedo, necktie, and other sorts of things that I don't have nor able to buy.

Apparently, JohnCarllos moved to Florida and came over to my house at the time. He said he'd be willing to drive me to the mall or rental to find whatever I need. So, John drove and I was in the backseat. In the dream, it was about 7:40 PM and it was becoming pretty dark and...

... John falls asleep at the wheel. He was flat knocked-out cold. I LITERALLY became a backseat driver.

Somehow, I managed to drive to the mall and drag John into the backseat, sleeping like a baby. I walk in and JCPenny's (being about the size of a Gamestop), had nothing I was looking for. I asked the clerk for help and told him my problem. He made a crack about suits and I laughed. He actually managed to find what I was looking for.

... and I woke up.

Played a little bit more MGS3, and now I've got to go to work again in a few minutes.

[Fatso]

Last day of high school today.

Epic win.

Went to a wrap-up party afterwards, played six straight hours of Rock Band. I suck at it. I suck hard. I did manage to hammer out a decent rendition of Won't Get Fooled Again on Expert with my 1337 Daltry-like skillz, however.

Just when it seemed the day could not be more complete, I came home to a brand-new laptop, from which I am posting this.

May I repeat: Epic win. The video memory is shared though :S

[MOX]

I still got till comming wednsday for my school to end. 

[ChaosVortex]

Dude. Guys. School ended for me WEEKS ago. Soon to be a month.

Underclassmen too.

Yeah. I'm rubbing it in.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Pfft. I don't care. You'll be in school while I'm still enjoying a real summer break. :P
