  • Health Project

    I'll be back for a while because I have to do a health project involving keeping a daily journal for a month. Anyway I ended up having to do it on exercising more. Meaning I have to get my ass off of this chair and exercise for at least a half hour at least five days a week. So I decided to exercise by playing DDR. Yes I know, I still managed to make it to where I can stare at a screen and improve my health. So I'll be blogging once again but I'll be including my little journal thing. I don't think I'll be starting it until next week or later when I get the specifics of the project worked out. But I might start writing again before that.

  • Days of many findings

    This has been like the greatest last few days of my life. Okay maybe not that great but it's been pretty good. First of all, last night I finally found my gamecube memory card that had been missing for 3 months. So I've been playing all of my gamecube games. Sonic Adventure 2.. The last good Sonic game. Then F-Zero GX, the best non realistic racing game ever made, Tales of Symphonia, one of my favorite RPGs, and Pikmin 2, one of my favorite indescribable games.

    Then I found the Phoenix Wright soundtracks and the orchestrated versions of them, and I'm currently in the process of downloading them.

    Then last and definitely the best, I finally have a Super Scope. If you're wondering what that is, it's the light gun made for the SNES. It's 2 and a half feet long and it looks like a bazooka. Plus it's the most accurate light gun I've ever seen and it was only 20 bucks brand new so it's an amazing deal. And I've been looking for one for the past 3 years.

  • Damn Highschoolers

    So today I was at a video rental store dropping a couple things off, anyway I was walking across the parking lot to the door and right as I'm crossing the last little bit of the parking lot when I see a Buick coming down the parking lot towards me at about 35mph. It stopped right about 5 feet in front of me. I just kind of shook my head and walked around it towards the door. Then this stupid girl who looked like she was about 14 opens one of the back seat doors and almost hits me with it and runs out of the car screaming about the cold completely ignoring the fact that she has almost killed me twice.
    Then I finally got to the door right behind little miss idiot and she opens the door and starts to walk in and I was about to nicely hold the door for her and she slams it behind her almost literally in my face. So I finally got in the door and I'm having to resist this crazy urge to punch miss idiot. So I stick the videos in the drop box and walk out the door and miss idiot has already left. So I walked out the door behind miss idiot and she gets back in the car which is conveniently parked right in front of the door blocking all of the other cars trying to get through the parking lot. So while she's getting in the car I walked in front of it to get around her. Then the driver of the car hits the gas and nearly hits me again. Right about then I raised my hand about to flip them off with my abnormally long fingers and I'm in the middle of yelling "Slow down you mother****ers" and right as I got past "mother", I heard a familiar voice coming from the passenger seat yelling "Hi Aaron" and guess who, it's my best friend. So I walked over to the window to say hi and I had to resist the urge to strangle the 16 year old girl behind the wheel. Anyway I said hi and left since it's freezing outside and immediately as soon as the couldn't hear me I said to myself "damn high schoolers"

    Now here after that incident, now that I'm at home where nobody is going to run me over with their car, I realized something. Technically I'm still a high schooler. I may be a sophomore in college but technically I'm still in high school. And now I'm starting to realize how immature and idiotic my fellow high schoolers can be. And for a while, I almost tried to convince my parents to let me go to public school for my senior year. Now I'm glad I'm going to college even if everyone else there is at least 2 years older than me. But I guess I'm wondering if anyone else thinks that other people their age are absolutely stupid.

    Now I get to call up my best friend and she if she caught me flipping her friend off... Oh well, it isn't the first time I've done that to one of her friends.

  • I just saw the greatest half of a commercial ever

    So I was watching CBS at about midnight and there was a commercial for a proctologist. Except he was this really creepy looking old guy with a big white beard. Anyway it kind of went like this. "Are you embarrassed about getting a prostate exam? How do you think it feels to be a proctologist?" Then he got really angry and said "How would like it if you had to-" and then they cut him off and went to another commercial. It was brilliant.

    First day of the spring semester

    Well I put together a temporary theme, got my profile pic uploaded, I've got my i-pod on, and I have a steaming mug of hot cocoa in front of me. I think I'm finally ready to really get started.

    Anyway today was the first day of school for me. It actually went pretty well. My health class shouldn't be too boring, if anything it'll be really easy even though we had homework on the first day. But then again I knew exactly what I was doing with the assignment as soon as we were told what it was and I had it finished, printed, and in my backpack within 15 minutes after I got home. So hopefully that's a sign of what's to come in that class. Heh, who knows? Maybe I'll learn something in it?

    I can already tell that I'm really going to like my child psychology class. I have a good group of classmates, I know most of them from my general psych class last semester. Plus the professor is the same guy who taught my general psych class and he's definitely my favorite professor, he's a nice guy, he has a great teaching style using a lot of class involvement and open discussion rather than just lecturing. Plus it's a subject that I really enjoy, I mean it's psychology, which I love, and it's about kids, which I love also. So hopefully I'll really enjoy that class.

    My contemporary math class was the one that I wasn't sure about. I personally had not taken any math classes, or done any math besides homeschooling and technically hadn't done algebra 1 yet. But what we did in class today was really easy and I looked through the book and I couldn't find anything that I didn't know or couldn't figure out quickly. So that one should be pretty easy too. My professor is a little weird. He's one of those guys that doesn't have much of a presence so he tries to make up for it with a lot of really boring jokes. But his last name is Dethrow and everyone in the class started making jail jokes and the only thing I could think of was that he needed to start a band called Dethrow. Seriously, it has that crazy death metal feel and it has death only it's spelled Deth. What's cooler than that?

    Anyway that was pretty much my day. Nothing else really happened except I'm getting all antsy waiting for Street Fighter IV to come out. But to hold back the crazy urges I played through #2 4 times tonight and played some Madden with my older brother so that held my attention. And now this blog post came along.

    There was one other thing I wanted to mention. So I know I haven't really mentioned this before on my old blog but there was this girl I liked for a long time, like literally 2 years and I hadn't ever asked her out or anything. Anyway about 3 months ago my best friend finally got tired of it and told me that she would beat me with her shoe if I didn't ask this girl out. So I finally did, we went on a couple dates but nothing really happened. I don't think she wanted to get into any kind of a serious relationship, plus I've started to realize that we really didn't have anything in common. So I've been trying for the past month or so to just quit thinking about her and so far it's working.

    But then something else had to come up. I just realized that I'm really starting to love another one of my friends. No, I don't just have a random crush on her, I actually love this girl. We're close friends, we had actually dated for a few weeks way back but that kind of died off when her mom turned out to be abusing her so a friend called DCFS and she got all suicidal and I ended up being the one to call her mom and get her to keep an eye on her. Anyway after that the whole dating thing just kind of died since at the time she felt that I was mostly responsible for her mom watching her like a hawk 24/7. So we didn't see each other for a few months but I talked to her sister every few days to check in on her. Finally we did start seeing each other. Though only around a lot of other friends. But we steadily grew closer and closer to each other until she became one of my best friends and she still is.

    But for the last few months we really hadn't seen each other much, we had talked on facebook but not in person or over the phone or anything. Except until recently when we ended up seeing each other at some get-togethers. And during those I have no idea what came over me, I was just hovering around her, talking to her, giving her hugs, I was just like a whole different person around her. Finally over the last couple nights I realized I really do love her. I guess I should probably tell her how I feel but I'm kind of afraid that with our little history that it might negatively affect things.

    Anyway I don't know exactly why I'm writing this, I guess just to get it off of my chest, so I can see it in front of me, and just in case someone has something to say about it. But I think on that note, I'm going to get some sleep.
