My english teacher is totally insane o_o she's like, an english nazi, but in a good way. She's basically PREACHING all, Heil active reading! *thrusts arm in the air*.
Turns out I did get birthday presents today ^^
1.) A printer from the parents, for schoolwork, yes, but like the laptop, probably going to get lots of home-computer use.
2.) Another awesome music CD, FLCL Vol 2 - King Of Pirates, not as good as Vol 1 - Addict was (there are some audeo tracks from the show, but they're in Japanese ><) ie, you can't just listen through the entire cd and not want to skip a few tracks like Addict.
Still, now I've got the last few songs I wanted, like Crazy Sunshine, Blues Drive Monster, Funny Bunny and I Think I Can
@_@ Yhis new music has sent me into a frenzy of art. Now I've got almost 30 pictures to scan in, whenever the hell my laptop is FINALLY done. *grunble*
Anyhow, while some drawings are turning out awesome recently, others, half of them in fact, just crash and burn. =/ theres no pattern to it. I'll just pause, look at it, and go 'oh my god' because I never draw that bad that often X.x
rantings... merf @_@ I need my laptop
*yawn* Still bored, no one to talk to, laptop gone for a long time, school monotony. No one talks to me, so I talk to no one.
My teeth get better, I don't get to see my only IRL friend Nathan at school this year at all, bla bla bla, dads officially going to be an overbearing hawk and make sure I'm 'a good student' bla bla bla.
Everything has been beaten over the head with the "suck" stuck.
Ah, the first day of school, and routines are already settling in. Like the 15 minutes or so I have left over after getting ready to go, then leaving at 6:45 my time. (tis 6:35 as I write this)
Great, school starts tommorow and my face is swollen out like a freakin' chipmunk. At least it doesnt hurt anymore, though I'm not even gonna try to eat anything solid until after the stitches in my gums dissolve.
Last night I had a kickass dream. I landed in a place where there are 10 floors, #10 being the entrance/exit. All other 9 were games and shyt you can program, but with your mind and a little hand work. Naturally, I restyled myself as Wes. Any dream where thats the end result rocks in my opinion.
Well tommorows the first day of school; I get to be a 16 year old senior because they keep pushing back the first day of school. Someone asked when I get my presents. A while ago. Thats what WoW was. But now, my laptop's outta commission even LONGER, because they didnt even start working on it until yesterday. e_e That means it won't be fixed until sometime around the end of the month T_T
All the fun things that have happened in the past 2 weeks
1. the laptop started being a total byatch and got sent in for 7-10 days repair. unfortunately, thats 7-10 WORK days, ie, around when school starts.
2. we try to go on vacation. fate reeeealy didn't want us to.
-it started to rain like crazy
-two car tires had to be replaced, both had nails in them.
-the car battery wouldn't start, so we had to use the charger we got when bro left the AC on, and the engine off. genius. *rolls eyes*
-we had to wait for my medicine to arrive from UPS before we could go, so that delayed us until 5.
-consequently, its so late, by the time we get to our family friend's, the carolls, place, its dark. dad drives by landmarks. there are no landmarks in the dark.
-we try to call grandma (my dad's mom, the cool grandma) and the cellphone gets shytty reception, she cant hear us.
-mr caroll, dale, his cell phone keeps giving us the answering machine-type message.
we finally make it there, 10:45 their time.
-we can't get the gamecube and tv to work, so only the gc works in the bedroom, no tv.
-that night, 147 (yes i counted, you'll see why) lightning strikes, plus the caroll's kids sleeping on the couch leaving the tv on, give me flashing light all night to keep me awake.
-they're a bed short, so i have to try to sleep in a recliner, that you have to fight with to keep reclined.
-when i finally fall asleap, its 7:30 am. I have to get up at around 8 or 9 am.
-breakfast isnt gonna be ready for a few hours, and ive been starving, awake, all night with nothing to eat but a pair of slim jims i stowed in my suitcase. at least i got to go fishing.
-all day, every day, i find myself the odd man out. Dad and mom are busy talking to dale and donna, and bro's watching tv crap with trisha and anna, the caroll's kids.
at least their dog, sophie, decided she'd hang around with me. I always preferred cats over dogs but still, I'm hoping it'll help with drawing muzzles, after basically doing a mental study of the way a muzzle really looks. she had cool markings too, I'll have to work them into a drawing.
-On another rare 'positive' side, all this time alone gave me a chance to draw a total of about FIFTEEN pictures, many of them pictures I drew of songs.
Hybrid Rainbow is one of the best singing poses I've ever been able to draw, and Okay I Believe You is covered with powerful quotes, and its nice and depressing. It really fit my mood. So look for my usual duality when I post 'em ^^
-When I finally get to play just one game with dad, I'm so depressed and off, I lost to freakin' Xianguah, damn preppy bytch, with one of my best, Kilik. That hasn't happened once in about a YEAR.
at least on the last night i got to sleep on the couch. best damn night of sleep of my life.
-Time to go, and of course, car wont start again. whip out the jumper cables.
Lovely and relaxing vacation, no? actually, it wasn't all bad, but it was a soap opera all the same.
3. Yay, I get to have my wisdom teeth removed </utter sarchasm>. They kept trying to force my head through the headrest, i swear. The IV needle totally freaked me out, some of you know how much I hate them. It was better than having to get it shot directly in. Which I did have to get about 7 times in my mouth. Ow. Pricked my freaking tounge too, and that hurts afterwards. The first one was nice and easy. The second one, they went medieval on me, the only tooth they used a drill on. The third one is the one that I can tell will bug me the most, on top of my mouth. It was buried way up by the root of my molars, they only caught it in a second x-ray. At least I won't have that coming to haunt me later in life.
4. All I can say is, ow. It wasn't bad until the novacane wore off, now it feels like someone's got iron hooks on my molars and is trying to see how many ways my head can streach. I cant eat anything solid, so I'm on a "braces diet" of yougurts, jellos, and milkshakes. The pain takes out any enjoyment once obtained by eating, so consequently, you eat less, less often, and hate every moment of it. Ya loose weight fast that way.
5. Mom gave me some pills to make me feel better. Unfortunately, it was on an empty stomach. An hour later, I loose my lunch all over the carpet. It felt like I was trying to squeeze my stomach until it split in half.
6. Dads got extreme pain in his right side for almost a full day now. Mom whipped out the medical encyclopedia, luckily it can't be appendicitis or gallbladder stuff, unfortunately that means we dont know what it is, and I'm afraid to say, it might be a kidney.
Well, there ya go, all caught up. Longest entry ever.
God damn x.x its like having braces tightened only much much worse, plus my throat is giving me major grief. *sigh* at least its over, at least till I have to start trying to brush the places super-clean tommorow. Today I just gotta wait, try to stop vomiting, and hope the incisions heal and my blood starts clotting so I'm not left with empty gaps that'll take months to heal and make me need painkillers until january. and the swelling should kick in right about the first day of school so my face will look like a balloon. *sighs again* at least its partially over with.
laptop should be done soon...
I just ate the last bit of food I'm gonna be allowed to have until after the surgery... tommorrow...
heh. you know me. I'll probably be trying to talk (cough, rant) with them while all twilight-y from the medications.
We went on vacation too, lots of fun stories there. sigh...
stomach is going to murder me im so nervous. I'll write more when i get my laptop back, this has been my ONLY chance since the last time i wrote, my bro's been glued to the screen till 4 am every night.
Dah, cant sleep x.x too hyper, too busy thinking about IT. thats referring to the surgery. meh, harry potter 6 re-read helped distract me and keep me up all night, that and my bro's friends Blake and Adam. Blake's the cool, yet crazy one, and hes sleeping in the basement, while the others do shyt upstairs, meaning im gonna get kicked off, and cant play g-cube or watch tv.
my life is getting more and more dramatic without my laptop x_X *sigh* se la vi.
Well, the laptop should be fixed and upgraded in less than 10 days, maybe as little as a week from now. Just before oral surgery. Joy. *shudders* That means hopefully I'll be able to play WoW, if not, I'm going to be COMPLETELY pissed. I'm missing all of you to an insane degree, and almost hope that you dont miss me, cuz i know how much it sucks from personal experience. See all of you around eventually, and with a crapload of new art.
~Wes, Foxy, Aric, Teh Gawd, bla bla bla.
great... more good news... monday after next, the 16th, i get to go into oral surgery to get my wisdom teeth removed. Yeah, at 16. I must really be wise. *rimshot* at least i get a light sedation instead of just a local. That would be hell. Still, less chance of me never waking up than a full-blown general anesthetic. joy, now i get to spend the next 13 days contemplating one of the things i fear the most.
yay more irl drama. Now my laptop won't work as if plugged in, so even though it should be charging, its not. The batteries probably dead by now. bro and his gf katie are taking up the basement so i cant game or watch tv. And since my bro uses this computer, i cant use yahoo or bnet either. Oh joy. and also, this is the family computer and dad needs to work, so ive gotta go about 5 minutes ago. I'll be back... soon I hope.
vV Great. My laptop doesn't have enough power, but craploads of memory. Our regular computer has the power, but hardly any leftover memory. $80 and 90 days subscription, totally waisted.
*sigh* Just another day in my life.
Curse laptops for having so little RAM. It takes a freaking eternity to do anything, and I still havent been able to get as far as creating my character x.o that and the relative suckitude of my wireless net, but even next to the router, I'm still waiting. *sigh* if I have to get it put on the regular computer, then we go back to the old brotherly rivalry of who gets the computer for how long. joy, some more irl drama. And in addition to all that, i've got a crapload of appointments, schedulings and all that crap this and next week, so between that and WoW, I'm going to be on very rarely =( *sigh* see ya around.
I just got WoW early for my birthday ^^ Time for me to delve deeeeep into it for the next few days before school starts.
Love to hate, hate to love. Six words that describe us all.
merf... Another boring day, but at least I got to see Kara earlier this morning ^^
"Jess really just doesn't seem to care about anyone but herself right now. *sighs* She was asking me to stay tied to her to be her backup relationship, not seeing anyone just so I could be her plan-b. She's obviously messed up."
~Me to [Miya] when she asked me to tell her honestly if jess was still tied to her, after jess had told me that, and that she honestly didn't know if she'd even be staying with her. And wow, dejavu. Kat will most definitly agree with me on that.
I was tempted to write another few lines of my "drama whore" poem but I decided not to.
Well, it was a break from the boredom. Too bad flashbacks are the only thing that emotionally hurt me anymore. That was a Charley and the Chocolate Factory reference to those who haven't seen it.
Ah smoof.
First I miss kara having to leave cuz of dinner, and now I find out tonight is movie night, so I'll be forced to watch either Marx Bros or Disney T_x as if my bro and his girlfriend werent having me sit through enough, and that also means its unlikely I'll be left alone to do what I want namely on the gamecube and laptop. Ah smoof indeed.
