Napalm-chan. It's an awesome tag but oh the dissappointment that comes with having a -chan tag.

As bad as Miss M or Togi, but as cute as Cracky.

So I haven't updated in a damn long time. Not too unusual.

Been having to deal with getting my comp and lit stuff all finished (still didn't complete that last essay even though I turned it in) and get my video final out of the way (went with doing a PvP video since I only have, like, a week to do it). Couldn't get anything regarding my animation class done during all of this and I've already failed, like, half the course so I told the professor that I'm just going to take the fail and be done with it.

Other than that...yeah...nothing much other than that school's over next week. Woo hoo.

Spent the entire morning watching episodes of Beast Wars. Dinobot is god and feral Cheetor is sex.

So lately I've been feeling really unmotivated and slightly depressed. It's started since probably right after the vacation, so I'm going to assume that it has to do with getting to spend a week doing what I enjoy and then suddenly having to go back and doing work for classes I don't enjoy or really know why I'm taking aside from the fact that they're required.

Today should be good. Why? I've found all of the old Cartoon Network Groovies (Cartoon Network's alternative to commercials). YouTube wins.

Why the hell does life seem to be all drama and a waste of time lately?

Mon, 19 Feb 2007 19:06:27 GMT

So either 80% of my digital editing two class thought it was spring break or 80% of the class has decided that it's a total waste of time and doesn't feel like coming any more.

I know that I should be in that latter category however with my father home from work today (I have no idea why since he doesn't believe in sick days or vacations), it meant I had no choice. However with this headcold I have really bothering me, I'm probably just going to skip my class tonight to try and sleep it off.

Tue, 13 Feb 2007 00:11:23 GMT

Managed to get the laptop working on the Peekskill network (Warcraft still isn't working though). It's definitely a way for me to get through the science and survival class, which is really a huge waste of time as the professor just keeps saying the same thing over and over again, as well as constantly saying that he's been a part of almost everything that's brought up. What's amusing however is that one of the people in the class has started to turn on him by using his own phrases against him.

Still really wish Warcraft was working. 200K more experience to 69...

Thu, 08 Feb 2007 21:22:00 GMT

So I'm pretty sure that today can't suck any more than it already has. Missed the 12:25 to White Plains so I had to wait until 2:10 for my aunt to pick me up, causing me to be a half hour late to a class that I actually enjoy (in the hall before the door the thought had occured to just simply skip, whereas just before having called said aunt considered even going), then the two and a half hours that need to be killed before the bus back home (bus takes an hour and a half route to Cortlandt Town Center, wait forty minutes for the bus that goes through Croton and then an hour long ride from Cortlandt Town Center back to Croton)were going to be spent playing the Burning Crusade on the laptop but apparently there's a firewall on the school's server that prevents only Warcraft from working. This has now left that two and a hald hours to be dealt with the same way as usual: Refreshing my mail in-box and waiting for someone to pop on-line. Makes it especially worse that Rory has again left early, meaning that the hour and half on the bus is going to be spent sleeping in the back rather than pass the time talking with someone.

Tue, 23 Jan 2007 05:04:07 GMT

Dropping Earth Science. Why? Well, why do you think?

No, it isn't to play more of the Burning Crusade. Although more hours most likely will be clocked due to me dropping.

But, seriously, I'm dropping the course because my Comp and Lit 1 and Science & Survival courses are both seeming like they're going to be incredibly demanding, also I'd be at the campus (or extension center) from noon until 8:00 at night Tuesdays and Thursdays (9:30 on Mondays) and would really like the chance to actually sleep somewhere that isn't at a desk. Also, even though I have two hours in between both of those classes, the work load from all five courses is most likely going to be taking the total six hours I have in between classes as well as the however many hours I have after 2D Animation and all of Friday, which I really ended up hoping to get some practice with Fel. Saturdays I hang out with the group up in Carmel as my one sort of real day off, and Sunday would generally result in more Fel playing or going back and hanging out some more. With the five courses, however, that Sunday would end up being doing the "Oh, shit!" level of difficult homework from Comp and Lit 1 and Science & Survival, as well as anything that hadn't gotten done already.

It basically translates to proving the saying "You can sleep when you're dead."

Tue, 16 Jan 2007 22:46:04 GMT

I need a laptop with wireless Internet. And I really have only one reason for this...The Burning Crusade. Now, yeah, there are computers at the school...but I can only amuse myself so much with going from LiveJournal to MySpace and back to attempt to post something. And I only need to do this because from 3:15 to 6:00 I have to sit around waiting for my earth science class to start (yes, college is requiring me to take a science and I know earth science kept me far more interested than biology judging by how fast I fell asleep). Now, yes, Rory and Kim (and later Mike) will be around during that time until a certain hour, then I'm on my own to kill time however, but still! I can at least kill an hour quickly attempting to level my Draenei priest (which, despite what Gavdon says, is really fucking pretty).

Step 1: Put your MP3 player or whatever on random
Step 2: Post the first line(s) from the first 10 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. (Block out name of song if in the first few lines)
Step 3: No more than one entry per band
Step 4: Let everyone you know guess what song and artist the lines come from
Step 5: Bold out the songs when someone guesses correctly
Step 6: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING

01. Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray
02. The visions dancing in my mind
03. Here we stand
04. Haven't you heard about the guy known as [Title]
05. I have run to the ocean
06. She threw down her golden band
07. Do you ever question your life
08. Man I'm in trouble, 'cause I can't see clear.

10. This is my [Title]

So, me, Extercast and Psibound have determined something about the whole Terminator series. Since the original Terminator kicked the crap out of the Terminator from the second movie as well as the Terminator from the third movie, it shows that the shittier the Terminator, the more invincible it is. So we came across the belief that the very first, the original original Terminator would be able to be the crap out of every single Terminator to come after it even if it was like a fucking toaster or remote or something. In fact, in one of the books apparently they had the Arnold Terminator fighting the real-life "Arnold" which was who the human appearance of the Arnold Terminator and what happens? Real-life Arnold beat the shit out of the Arnold Terminator.

Going to be looking like this the next couple of weeks. Possibly month and a half.

I've seen the dances for the Blood Elves and Draenei in the Burning Crusade.

Female Blood Elf: Britney Spear's Toxic
Male Blood Elf: Napoleon Dynomite
Female Draenei: ????
Male Draenei: Tunak Tunak Tan.

The male Draenei makes me giggle.

Whelp...iPod's completely broken. Can't hold a charge at all. Thus I'm out of music until Christmas. Though I might trade in the one I have for the Nano since my mom says they're a bit more durable, which is good because it's going to be going through a lot of wear and tear.

Coming upto the usual "Guess what? You get to spend the holidays by youself again!" shit...god I need a dramaless love life >.

You scored as Dante Alighieri. According to you most of humanity will spend at least some of their afterlife in hell. You have a high likelihood of being exiled, but anyone as bloody fucking romantic as you deserves what they get. You have an exceptional moral code, overshadowed by the fact that you yourself cannot uphold it.

Your existence bears a definite irony, although of fairly Christian morality, many pagans, satanists, communists, and intellectuals admire you and your works for all the wrong reasons.

Also, the brighest star in your sky is never going to be your lover...

It takes a lot of grief to be the cartographer of hell.

While I find it awesome that I am most like Dante, only because any mention of Dante brings to mind Devil May Cry, I find it frightening that I am 50% like Hitler. Note to self: Make more Jew jokes at Steve's expense.

So people are again thinking it fun to jump down my throat at the slightest thing I say. Interesting.

Rob's finally rememberedthat I'm borrowing his PsP, so now I'm going to have to learn how to play Monster Hunter using his character but also now have something to do in those incredibly long lecture classes especially since I've run out of things to read. Horray for wireless Internet.

Stopped by Kim and Matt's new apartment. It's weird seeing how much space a place has considering that it's owned by a family that has very packrat-like tendancies. I just hope that they manage to get some furnature out of storage soon though, since sitting on hardwood floors for long periods of time really isn't all that comfortable. Oh, also, after playing Gears of War with Matt for an hour, I've come to hate first person shooters even more. Fucking darkness.

Whelp, I managed to successfully skive off my Photoshop class. But you know what I got in return? Walking around town for about an hour, having a run-in with the cops for carrying around a boken (nothing happened, I just need to pick the sword up tomorrow since I felt continuing to carry it around that night would cause more incidents) and then coming home to run around in Upper Blackrock Spire in an attempt to kill Lord Valthalak. Why wasn't I hanging out with friends? Well, apparently Francielle wasn't really feeling like being anywhere outside since she broke up with her fag of a boyfriend, and my father decided that class (a class which I know everything he's teaching and recieving some pretty damn marks in) was infinitely more important than a night off so that I could hang out with my friends in Mahopac (see, my father is the kind of person that would far rather spend his weekend in the office with his bullshit job of selling copiers than have anything to do with anything that's remotely enjoyable).

Typing from class.

Hallow's end is tonight, still trying to figure out some way to bail out of my Photoshop class (which even my father is beginning to think is a bit of a joke). I actually have the assignment done too, so I'll probably just e-mail it to my professor. My digital video class is also still going over things that I know, and thus I'm just sitting around reading Goblet of Fire again. My mid-term project though went over rather well. Hopefully I'll be able to find time to post it up on YouTube or something soon.

An icy wind sweeps over you, a wind colder than anything ever believed imaginable. You can see your breath in thick, ghostly white clouds as you exhale and your skin immediately explodes into thousands upon thousands of goosebumps. Enough to make it seem as though your skin is simply just those millions of tiny bumps. The air around you feels like the heartless embrace of death as the animals about scurry for hopeful warmth and the plant life around you quickly withes and dies, turning a sickly shade of wilting gray. In the distance, beneath the unforgiving shadow of the ghastly Reaper, you see a boy crouched low, his legs hugged tightly against him. The boy, who arrogantly and foolishly took the name Dreamweaver, is dressed in a long, black coat, the hem shredded and torn as though by age and battle, and it flaps in the cold wind like a discarded, empty bag. The boy’s eyes are distant and unmoving, staring off for what seems to be an eternity into the gray, lifeless fog. In an instant, the boy’s eyes seem to flicker and the last thing that anyone ever expected of him happens: the boy begins to cry.

Ended up watching a bunch of music videos from Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks and oddly Ayumi Hamasaki for the last hour. And, you know...I kind of wonder what I liked about Ayumi's music. I mean, yeah, a couple of the songs are good when I'm listening to them in an AMV or on their own, but seeing Ayumi actually sing them in concert...well...

BequeathedAngel (11:35:38 PM): Dude...you know what really kills a fandom?
Boldo522 (11:35:45 PM): english dubs?
Boldo522 (11:35:55 PM): bad hentai?
BequeathedAngel (11:35:57 PM): Well, yeah, in most cases.
BequeathedAngel (11:36:04 PM): Bad hentai kills other things
BequeathedAngel (11:36:10 PM): I'm talking more along the lines of music.
Boldo522 (11:36:19 PM): what
BequeathedAngel (11:37:02 PM): When you see the artist on stage from not that long ago and you've got basically Americans doing the robot in a Japanese song that has absolutely no connection with it.
BequeathedAngel (11:37:15 PM): It's even worse when it's a fairly good song too.
Boldo522 (11:37:59 PM): true
BequeathedAngel (11:38:30 PM): You know, I actually miss when concerts were about the music. Now it's just about making everything as flashy and pretty as possible.
Boldo522 (11:40:45 PM): yeah
Boldo522 (11:40:50 PM): the 90s were nice
BequeathedAngel (11:40:57 PM): Pfft, hell no.
BequeathedAngel (11:41:14 PM): The 90's went from bad 80's music into bad 2000 music.

Seriously. And, yes, in about all of Ayumi's songs from her 2003-2004 tour, she had about ten back up dancers all dressed as ridiculously as she was (and by ridiculous, I mean like a fucking Barbie doll with a straight, fashion senseless wardrobe designer instead of Ken, who was basically a fag) which you would think is entirely unnecessary especially when you consider that she's already killing what was otherwise a good song (I know that changing the way your voice sounds from the original recording and your other live appearances might work for Bob Dylan, but it doesn't work for everyone.

On another note, I'm beginning to quickly lose patience with my Digital Video and Photo Imaging classes. Basically, I've spent $2000 to learn things that I was either already taught the previous year or taught myself several years prior. I mean, yeah, the whole theory of digital editing where you consider the big picture while at the same time working on a ten second video clip will probably help me down the road when I'm working on my final project, but it's rather meaningless when you're going through a demo clip for three weeks and doing exactly what the professor says step by step as he says it.

Anonymous commenting is ON. Leave me words. Something you've always wanted to tell me, something that has nothing to do with me, a confession, a secret, a story, whatever. Anonymous comments are suggested though not necessary if you're feeling brave enough. I'll probably reply to your comment. If you'd rather I don't, specify "don't reply" in the subject and we'll pretend it never happened. Just make sure whatever you tell me is true.
