So tomorrow is my first test of 2007. The test is on American Lit, so it should be fairly easy to memorize all of the authors and such...I just wish they didn't throw in artists too. Hopefully I'll do exceptionally well on this test, because I pretty much bombed the first quiz (but it was a pop-quiz, so it's not my fault ).
But anywho, Lost Planet comes out on Friday!! I'm probably more excited about this game than I was for GoW. I didn't know how good GoW was until I bought it, but I actua
First off, congrats to Nate and the rest of the staff that worked really hard (in their spare time, mind you) on getting this new skin pushed out. It wouldn't have been possible without great cohesiveness and teamwork. Good job guys. Nate did a superb job of capturing the tone and theme of the old forums while still giving us a contemporary feel to our favorite website. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Do not be taken aback when people get defensive or unsettled when you let it b
So, is it possible to pretty much love someone even though you haven't met the person before? Cause it seems that way to me. I wish I lived in New Jersey...
And I had to alphabatize a whole shelf of books at work today. My neck hurts from looking sideways.
And my fingers are bleeding from a recent uprising in the forums. Ain't it fun being an FA?
TEN HOW'S:
1.How did you get one of your scars?

Went out to eat to Red Robin.

Saturday night was dull.

Holy cow you guys. The Avengers was such a great movie! Joss Whedon did an amazing job of giving every character screen time. I was worried Black Widow and Hawk Eye would only be shown in a scene here and there. Instead, every hero gets some rather amazing scenes. Having Banner and Stark play off each other was perfect, the two genius scientists working together and sharing their knowledge. The dichotomy between Iron Man and Captain America as well as between Thor and the Hulk are so remarkab
For the first time in quite a long time, I've come down with some illness. I don't think it's the popular swine flu, mostly because I haven't been running a fever. I have, however, been having drainage down the back of my throat, as well congested sinuses. I woke up at 4 AM today coughing my lungs out. I ended up vomiting for the first time in years. I was also sweating like a pig.
Needless to say, I skipped my one class today and stayed in bed for the majority of the afternoon. Hopefully I'
Why is that you only ever -really- want Chic-Fil-A on Sunday, the one day that they are closed?
Sausage burrito would have been so good this morning...
So I logged on and looked at the blogs and apparently everybody is afraid of the staff or something? Do people really feel this way? I read a few entries and the consensus seems to be the opposite. It seems the staff identities some members have grown to fear are hugely hyperbolic and blown out of proportion. Maybe I'm just biased. We're all pretty cool. We're humans too, y'know. Anywho, I'm quitting my job (!). Hopefully I'll have a little more free time to dedicate to this site, afte
I recently saw a list of all the known songs on Guitar Hero 3 and needless to say it got me quite excited. Anywho, here's a list of songs I'm anxious to play:
She Builds Quick Machines ~ Velvet Revolver
Knights of Cydonia ~ Muse
Reptillia ~ The Strokes
Welcome to the Jungle ~ Guns 'n Roses
When You Were Young ~ The Killers
Schools Out ~ Alice Cooper
The Metal ~ Tenacious D
Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll ~ Blue Oyster Cult
3's and 7's ~ Queens of the Stone Age

I want a phone that can ping other phones within a close distance and transfer personal information wirelessly and then automatically update the information in your contacts. If there isn't an app for that, I should make it, and become insta-rich.
I want a device that attaches to your buggy at Wal-Mart (or other applicable super-market) and as you add items to your cart, you can scan the item. The device will keep a running total before you check out so you don't overspend.
I'm a genius,
Does anyone else read these marvelous fantasy epics by George RR Martin? I have been deeply enthralled by everything Game of Thrones for about the past year. I'm currently on book three, "A Storm of Swords." I have always been a fan of fantasy novels, but these stories offer something different. Throughout the books (and HBO show), we have seen and heard whispers and rumors of a deeper magic lying dormant in Westoros. After hundreds, possibly thousands of years, that deep magic is starting to
Inside joke. No school Monday, whoo.
Monologue due Tuesday, boo.
So we finished and published our first school news paper. I must say, I was mighty proud for only having 3 days to work on it. It needs a little more "mmph" to it, but it's still nice. This yearbook/journalism class is more fun than I thought it would be.
Underoath & Taking Back Sunday concert in Birmingham on Feb. 25th. I'm so there.
Cold weather is dumb.
Chapped lips are dumb.
Cold weather means no more shorts.
Cold weather is dumb, especially when it doesn't even snow.
JANUARY 26!!!!
Well, my oldest sister has finally graduated from nursing school. The end of the road was a little rough, but she made it out just fine. Two members of the extended family came down from New Jersey yesterday to attended the pinning ceremony and the official graduation today, so it was nice to see them. I didn't have to go to school today, so I missed 2 test (history and English) that I'll have to make up on Monday. The teachers were supposed to have all of the grades down by today at 3PM, but oh
First day back to school, it was bearable. Break and lunch were odd, as most of my friends from last year weren't there to make things more interesting. But anywho, this year will be the easiest year of high school for me.
1 period: Gov./Econ. 12
2: Pre-Calc
3: Grammar/Brit.Lit 12
4: Physics (!)
5: Yearbook
6: Comp. Tech
First period will be easy. Pre-Calc will be fun and more enjoyable because our new teacher 'doesn't like homework." I think he's realized that most kids don't even
Gram's food is always the best. She just had to make french toast for us twice. And then yesterday...sheesh, I've never seen so much food in one place. And I also went to the New Jersey fair yesterday. A side from all the stinky, sweaty carnies, it was enjoyable. The 4-H centers are way more interesting than anything at the Fairs down here. I also don't get why New Jersey has tractor pulls and Alabama doesn't?
New Jersey was very relaxing. Wanted to go to the City (NYC), but never got aroun
Don't you just love it when you think you're going to have the rest of the weekend off after you're done working on Friday, but then you get called in on Saturday and Sunday to cover someones shift/whatever? Yeah, it's lovely.
But hey, I can't complain; more hours = more money.

This semester, I am taking a class called Principles of Marketing. We have one major project due that was divided into three segments. We were told to choose a company we would want to do a situational analysis on. My group decided to analyse the LEGO Company. At this point in the semester, we are supposed to come up with some new product that LEGO could market efficiently.
It just so happens I am involved with a website full of members that are crazy for LEGO.
So, I'm going to crowd-sou
What. A. Movie!
Inception has certifiably placed Christopher Nolan in the slot of my favorite film Director. With the success of both of the new Batman movies, Nolan is able to both write and direct a completely new story that is entirely gripping and entertaining.
The concept behind the film may be difficult to understand at first. Essentially, its the world's biggest "Yo dawg", if you can pardon the meme usage, to ever be created. The main characters are able to project their selves in
Greetings, readers! Over the past three weeks, I've been in contacts with a federal contractor in the hopes of landing an application development/programming job here in town. The recruiter for the company ran across my resume and contacted me to set up an interview. The very next day, I interviewed at a Starbucks with the Program Manager for the company. The interview went extremely well, and I was told I had a great chance of getting the job, barring some horrible background results came
This is my last free weekend of the summer. Luckily, I don't have to work, I don't have any plans, and I'm alone at my sisters house while she's away at the beach.
Perfect.
Of course, school starts Monday and I've been rather sick lately. Today is probably the peak of my illness; I'm coughing like crazy and my nose is oozing fluids of all kinds. Hopefully this will clear up before my first day of school.
Thankfully, this is my last year of high school. My school is going way down-hill
Saw this in a grocery store in Virginia. I just had to get a picture and text it to all of my friends...figured I'd post it here too. Are you readY?
