I really did it! I'm going to graduate summa cum laude with a GPA of 4.0! If someone had told me this in high school, I probably wouldn't have believed it.Nerd.
I'm so happy, the universe will surely deliver some sort of terrible cosmic smackdown to reestablish equilibrium. I better go clamp my arm in a vise or something before something worse occurs D:now i have to buy socks for them, which are like 12 dollar a pair, and change the fit of the shoes.It's a shame you can't wear toe socks with your toe shoes. :(

Rant, Moan and Rave - 2010 edition
now i have to buy socks for them, which are like 12 dollar a pair, and change the fit of the shoes.It's a shame you can't wear toe socks with your toe shoes. :(
i know right? i almost bought a pair, but i think i'll go with ozone's idea, as i originally had. but if i get caught….well. who knows.
Also i already got a reply from the red taped demons. Apparently so many people are complaining about this, that they're rewriting the reg so it reads as it should.
I have also decided to run a triathlon. anyone wanna do it with me?
Unbelieveable!
Somebody I hardly know just sent me a message over the net containing racially offensive material - not to offend me, but just assuming I would be okay with that. I talking someone who has absolutely no idea about me - people carry on like this all the time of course, but it never ceases to amaze me.
You know, looking at Wiki can be annoying sometimes, when myth is legitimised with the fake air of factuality. Especially concerning hats! :gem:
For Stetson there's this fantasy story that this idiot went out and discovered felt fur making on a hunting trip and THEN discovered that it made a great broad brimmed hat, and basically "invented" the cowboy hat. …When in reality broad brimmed fur felt hats had been around for a couple of thousand years and common to pretty much every culture in one form or another. Stetson might have made himself a crappy looking hat out of stinky reeking fur scraps, but he didn't invent anything. The man was just a popular hat retailer
Then there's this story about the origins of the beautiful fur hats that some Orthodox Hasidic jews wear- Shtrmeils. The idea is that some Russian Czar wanted to mark out the Jews in some humiliating fashion by forcing them to wear the tails of animals, so the Jews decided to wear them as hats in order to full-fill the decree… But the reality is that the tails are the very BEST part of a fur and people have made hats in that style since before there even was a Czar.
lol! Stupid, pointless rant, I know, but what else is this thread for?
my medical physical has been approved!! i'm going into the office right now to drop the package, so i can possibly get a class date!
also, as i was typing this, something popped up and asked if i wanted to do a "quick survey" i kept typing and it went away. Just to let the admins know or something.
It was one of the ad council ad's. the one that's like "dial at the first sign of stroke" and so fourth. promoting awareness of stuff. never had that problem before. scrolled down a little and saw another ad council and a comic advert. that's about it.

Looks like i spoke too soon. I just spent 3 hours at the squadron writing a paper to say that i don't have to listen to a policy that doesn't exist. it still needs to go up and come back, then i can submit. and then possibly get a class date. looks like i'll be waiting till end of june, instead of next week.
Fuck, I just picked up this pencil that rolled off my desk, and I banged my head on the underside of the desk. The sharp corner part of the desk, goddamn it hurts.I know most desks have rounded edges for a reason these days, eugh that hurts.

Got the comic all lettered and i'm apprehensive about posting it. I read it through and it moves really fast and the dialog isn't all that great(which i expected, but still). Crud… live and learn i guess.
I really hate how everything piles up at the end of the school year. I don't have too long to go until summer, but I still have to get passed a variety of tests, papers, and of course, exams. It sucks because I really want to put more time into my comic, but I feel guilty putting off work to go about doing that. >_<
In other news, I've become really lame. See, I have this thing for Moleskine Notebooks. If I see them in borders, I have to buy one. I don't write anything useful in them, normally, but I just like having the possibility there that maybe someday I'll use it for something really satisfying. Right now I'm using my most recent one to plan my comic, even though I know I -always- diverge from the original script.
What can I say? There's something to be said for pulling out your Moleskine notebook after receiving a 107% on a math test and writing about fake people with a fine typed artist pen. I am the human embodiment of "Stuff White People Like".

Crud… live and learn i guess.You could letter it in friggin' wingdings and I'd still read it. Just for the sake of looking at your art. Gawd. >_>
Argh, my family was right - now that I've been employed whilst attending two schools, it's maddening to sit around doing nothing constructive all of a sudden. I end up on the computer, thinking "Could be drawing! Could be playing Persona 4! Could go to the library! Let's call up a friend and go out!" But if I switch, I feel equally uncomfortable and want to do something else again, and even when I go out I feel strangely undirected.
It's not even been a week and it's driving me up the wall! All this relaxation and free time, what do people DO with it? >_o
graduation at 830 in the morning? man your school is getting in one last parting shot aren't they?
my school had graduation on a friday night, seniors had finished school on that previous wednesday at noon.

I was hoping the sun would be out, to dry up all the dog poo in the back yard, but it seems the forecasters were wrong. apparently weather is supposed to go from bad to worse.

I need a cowboy hat for yard work. I sunburn easily.
Today, the onset of summer. the day of regrets. every year, strong friends that i made, start posting of their summer camp choices. who's begging them to work where. my high school career i define by my time at camp buffalo in buffalo indiana. i wanted to continue for longer. but alas, the military has me. has had me for the last 5 years. i so miss this camp. the camaraderie, the great times.
I have yet to get that close to anyone in the military.
i miss it so bad.
Wow… I'm actually tempted to try and "host" a swimsuit competition for Drunkduck characters… Weird, eh? Except that I'd want the Admins to be the judges for the contest. I'd make a comic site just to show the entries to everyone and such. Oh, well… I don't have the energy to do that sort of thing anyway… oh, the things I come up with when I'm half asleep (I was supposed to sleep after coming home from work this morning).
by the time I wake up later I will have forgotten all about this… oh, well…
Got 5 community service hours doing nothing.
Only reasone I did it was because my mom asked for my help.
I barely did anything but it still will count for my "portfolio" for school.
And I will get my Pokemon Gold game fixed so I can save. I WILL.

I now have nick-names both for my school life and home life. In school I am known as the squirell, and now at home I am known as…Shag. I keep my hair uncut, so it got to big, skater type hair. And as usual I was digging into my meal (Meatballs and pasta, with garlis bread. :)), but I was wearing a green shirt. And then my dad just said,"You have a nick-name now. I'll be calling you Shag." And, it was done. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing…
I had a really weird dream today…
I dreamt that I was kidnapped by Vampire pirates so that I would be their cabin boy, although I was a girl… but also so that I could help them steer the boat though the watery streets of Venice, Italy although I had never been there before.
There was a lot of gunfights and cannon fights in Venice, and for some reason I somehow wound up in a gunship race with another group of vampires who were competing against the vampire pirates that I was with.
then all of a sudden the vampires all teamed up against Superman and Lex luthor, who were apparently working together to kill off all vampires in existence.
Lex almost killed me thinking that I was one of those vampires, but Superman stopped him and told him that he could still hear my heart beating… which meant that I was completely alive and not one of the undead.
I for some reason asked them when the wedding was going to be… and they were confused by my question…. until I told them that I always thought that the two were secretly a couple for a while now, thanks to all the Foe yay in the Smallville series, as well as in that one comic book series where Lex Luthor apparently created a child that was biologically both superman's and his child who was now called Connor Kent aka Superboy.
Superman was completely shocked by my question, blushing bright red… while Lex just smirked at me and told me that it wasn't my business to know about it at all.
That was when I woke up. I was reading a lot of Superman fanfics before bed, but I dunno where all those vampire pirates came from.
