Tell Me I'm Wrong

I’m bored and broke. What to do? Hmm… sounds like post­ing time! :)

Woke up at 5:30 on Sat­ur­day because Kinko’s opens at 6, and I was going to get ready for my day and then go over there to print out my project. Peggy S wasn’t done with hers, though, despite the fact that she had stayed up until 5 AM work­ing on it and passed out unwill­ingly. She was sup­posed to take Ian R to the air­port, too, but I made her take a nap before Thuong T’s grad­u­a­tion, and took him myself, instead.

Got back and made sure every­one in my car was going to be ready, then Diana Pai came over, and we picked up Amber W and Peggy S and headed to cam­pus. The cer­e­mony was… eh. Speak­ers could have been bet­ter. But we can’t all get Wear Sun­screen. Thanks again to Kitty K for the ticket! Con­grats to Jeremy J, Linh N, Kee­gan K, Thuong T, Jenny L, Bao N, Alice W… I’m sure I’m for­get­ting a bunch of folks. It was the first grad­u­a­tion I had actu­ally gone to this year, and it made me sad to see so many friends leav­ing. Espe­cially folks I knew from high school and the dorms. Oh well. Next year. Or maybe the year after… :neutral:

After the oblig­a­tory pic­ture tak­ing for days out­side, went to Thuong T’s grad­u­a­tion lunch at Davis Noo­dle City. We seri­ously took over the place… I think APhiO had every seat in the house. The food, though… I think I could have made it bet­ter myself. And that’s say­ing a lot. But hey, I tried a new place in town, and now I know. After that, headed over to Chap­ar­ral for Alice W’s BBQ. I was pretty full, so only had a slice of cheese­cake. And then a slice of the rasp­berry choco­late mousse cake that Jen L, TJ Y, and Aywon N got for Thuong T. Played ball in the street with Mike O for a bit, but it was windy. And I hit a car. (The balls are foam, so noth­ing hap­pened, though.)

Was kinda sleepy, so I went home and took a nap. Talked online for days after that. Wrote a cou­ple of posts in between dis­tract­ing Peggy S from fin­ish­ing her project. She mocked my non-​existant love life that I men­tioned in my bit­ter post. And made ran­dom racist comments -

My back hurts. I wasn’t sit­ting right, I guess. :(

- Peggy S.

Aw… you need a back brace or something.”

- Me.

Ew, no! That’s what my dad uses. And the Mex­i­cans that work at Home Depot.”

- Peggy S.

Why you gotta be racist? Every­one who works at Home Depot has a weight belt.”

- Me.

And the Mex­i­cans have it more!”

- Peggy S.

I still don’t get what she means by that. That girl… :shakes head:

Any­ways, passed out around 3:30.

Underwhelmed

I hadn’t lis­tened to this song in ages. And sud­denly I hear it, and it hits me it per­fectly describes my break. :) In other news, some­one :cough: told me I com­plain too much yes­ter­day. And I looked back and real­ized I have been pretty… teen angsty… lately. Sorry about that, guys; I’ll try to keep it under con­trol in the future.

So… how was my day yes­ter­day? Woke up extra early… 7:45. It’s get­ting kinda painful. And I expect to be up early and bored, which is sad. Chat­ted online and Xanga’ed it up, of course. Was bored, so I tried to start a rumor about Jackie and Don­ald. I hope no one takes it too seri­ously… it was just a joke because of what Jackie told me about her mini-​line field trip. Vis­ited ran­dom sites for a while. I was going to write them up here, but there’s so many. It seems wor­thy of a sep­a­rate post.

Will went to Son’s place and grabbed a bunch of animé DVDs from him for us to enjoy. Started out watch­ing Midori no Hibi. Good lord, another com­pletely ran­dom animé. I won­der what kinda crack they gotta be smok­ing when they think up this stuff. For those of you who don’t know, this show is about a guy who wakes up one day to find that his right hand has become a minia­ture girl. (Her waist is his wrist.)

I could only watch so much of that before I felt I would go crazy, so back on the com­puter. Drew and Peggy were mock­ing my alleged Xanga whore­ness again. I just gave up. Peggy was so happy, she made it her away mes­sage. :o ops: Is it really that bad, guys? They com­mented for days, and I just read. It felt… odd. Grabbed the Samu­rai 7 DVD and started watch­ing it on my com­puter as I chat­ted. That show is great. I really had my doubts about a futur­is­tic Seven Samu­rai rip with human heros fight­ing Gun­dams, but eh… it works. And how! I think Kyuzo has never looked more bad-​ass. Oh, I think I invoked Drew’s fury of a thou­sand suns on Has­bro for not mak­ing plushies of the Poke­mon he wanted. :)

Got invited to a kick-​back at Genie’s, so I decided I should do them a favor and shower before I go. And no, Mommy Van… I was NOT actu­ally so dirty I was con­stantly scratch­ing myself. After the shower, my hunger hit me like a sack of bricks to the groin, so I asked around to see if any­one wanted to go eat with me. No one replied, though, except for Mommy Van, who was already eat­ing. She invited me over to share her home-​cooked food, though. Mmm… com tam! It was so good. Thanks, Mommy! :) Too bad she ques­tioned my man­hood while I was eat­ing. Maybe I shouldn’t have told every­one about the frog purse. :shrug:

Back home and my sis­ter reminded me I had to make a web­site for my uncle to try to sell his house. It sucked. I’ve been pro­cras­ti­nat­ing on it all week, because I just haven’t felt like cod­ing lately. That’s why I got out of CSE; I don’t like cod­ing on cue… I kinda need… inspi­ra­tion. Well, that and fail­ing the insanely hard classes. So I worked on that for a bit. While chat­ting with peo­ple again. :) Oh… at least twenty peo­ple asked if I was drink­ing tonight. I told them to read my blog, and explained about how Joe, Peggy, and I are wait­ing until we’re all back in town, and we’ll drink our first alco­hol together. Which leads to yesterday’s quote -

Aw, how sweet. You’re like the Three Mus­ke­teers!”- Donald.

By the way, he was chat­ting with me from a lap­top in his TAPS truck because he didn’t feel like actu­ally work­ing. I could make a dirty joke about that, but instead, I’ll just refer you to a cer­tain scene in Super Troop­ers involv­ing a radar gun. Fin­ished about half of the page by 11, and headed over to Genie’s.

That was a lot of fun. Every­one was already faded by the time I got there. First I played some Con­nect Four with Alice W and Mommy Van. Alice kept beat­ing me by luck of the turn in the endgame, despite being drunk. I got her back in the end, though. After that, we played Truth or Dare Jenga. I had to pre­tend I was Bat­man, and run around the room with a bomb while singing the theme song. And mon­key dance on cue. And lick whipped cream off Mommy Van’s face. And pre­tend I was a fire­fighter strip­per for Alice W. And some more stuff I don’t want to talk about. I wasn’t even the worst off; poor Eddy…

Went home a lit­tle after that when every­one got tired of watch­ing me embar­rass myself. Worked on the web­site for what seemed like ages. Again, while talk­ing to peo­ple. Mostly Peggy. She kept try­ing to dis­tract me with pic­tures of her “very very pretty” friend. Finally fin­ished and tried to cel­e­brate by watch­ing the rest of Samu­rai 7. There was just too much for me, though. And chat­ting at the same time makes me lose track of the sub­ti­tles. So I decided to call it a night.

Blood Brothers

So dur­ing Clint’s inter­view of Alice Wong, I found out that he’s also a mem­ber of the gal­lon club! AND he’s blood type O+, just like me! What are the odds?! (We won­dered it at the time, but I didn’t know. Turns out, the odds of us both being O+ is about 14.4%. Accord­ing to the 38% O+ pop­u­la­tion listed on Wikipedia, any­way.) Oh, and sorry to Mommy Van and Alice for not know­ing on the spot what the odds were. I actu­ally wanted to guessti­mate around 40%, but I wasn’t sure of myself. I guess you can never trust me again to deliver any ran­dom trivia answer on demand. But I’ll always have 2.85 kg. :)

Now I gotta go dig up my gal­lon club key­chain doo-​dad and sport it with pride like my LB does! :mrgreen:
