Train Delay

Oh, so when it rains, it pours. The escalator at SL BART was still broken, but then not just that, but the train was delayed today, by 20 minutes or some bullshit. The train ended up to be way crowded going to Berkeley. A taste of Japan, eh? I didn’t get groped though. What an accomplishment. Also, on the train, I saw the woman with the HUGEST NOSE EVER. It was HUGE. Like XBOX HUGE. It stuck out like an inch from her face, and it was just HUGE. I cannot get over how HUGE it was. HUGE.

I spent the day really thirsty overall, despite having enough water. And I spent much of the day needing to go to the bathroom, despite being thirsty. So I’d go to the bathroom, and then soon enough I’d need to go again, despite the thirst. I did drink lots of water, but I was still thirsty. This is some real bullshit.

I need a retake for CS. My first retake. T_T I am an abject failure. Stupid careless mistakes. And so late in the semester, and I only have Wednesdays that I can go to the self-help center conveniently (and that is just a relative measure to other days). Fucking hell…

I did feel like I kicked ass on my math quizzes today though. That is a good thing. Despite not doing the homework for it. Which is a bad thing. But, quizzes count for more. Which is a good thing.

Essay due next Tuesday. Sucks balls, I have to say. I can only hope I won’t do that stupid thing where I don’t get any sleep at all before turning it in. *sigh*

Listening to: Capsule-Starry Sky. It is good. I don’t remember how I came across it, but I do know that Brian introduced me to them. I never did follow it up though. I am a lazy bastard.

SCREW YOU, MAN! FUCK YOU!

From what I’m led to believe, this means a “a lamp at noon”, a metaphor for someone who doesn’t stick out. Hi, me! Beyond that, it’s also a song from Guilty Gear 2 Overture OST. And even further beyond that, today walking home from BART, the lamps were all on. All of the lamp posts in the parking lot, the ones on the street, all turned on. Of course, it took me a while to notice, after all, that metaphor doesn’t exist for no reason. I’m not even sure if it’s unnatural for the lights to be on, it might just be the first day I’ve noticed. I was wondering why they were on, since I hadn’t heard news of any incoming eclipses or end of the world type deals from anywhere. Of course, I’m terrible at keeping abreast of news, I only figured out last night that the Bay Bridge is closed again.  But the eclipse hasn’t happened yet! So maybe I am not too off on the news on that count.

I’m thinking about being a dentist. I figure, it makes good money, good hours, and I don’t have to write a book or something like you would for being a doctor. And, if I end up hating my job, I might actually have the funds to go back to school to find something I actually like. Terrible plan, I know. Furthermore, my job description is “I am the man who rips the teeth from your mouth with EXTREME PREJUDICE. Your mouth is my domain.” Something about that REALLY appeals to me. Also, the irony of me having terrible teeth. I love the image of me revving up a power drill and turning around with a deranged rictus on my face. That’s right, I’m aiming to become the scariest dentist of all time! The kids’ll hate me. >>;

I beat Battle Moon Wars recently, yay! That last mission sucked balls. Fuck you, defence support. Fuck you, cross-screen field attack. Fuck you, status-inducing moves. And now I’ve started New Game +. I know, isn’t that just great, I’m at it again >>;.

So, for now, I’m off…to pick classes. Ah, fuck.

So today, I had to go to Berkeley for dealing with some financial aid business there. But…it’s closed Fridays. *sigh* And I had to wake early and gather up all the right documents and crap…So I’m going again Monday.

After Berkeley, I went to Sunset District, San Francisco, as my dad had to help finish off fixing my cousin’s wall (some sort of accident blew a hole into the wall apparently) and to pick up the desktop, which had activation trouble because I formatted the hard drive and had to reinstall Vista and shit. After fixing the crap up there, my dad and I went to take a look at the nearby beach, and then I experienced one of the City of San Francisco’s Public Convenience Stations, located at Taraval and Great Highway. Wonderfully verbose title, eh? The restroom was decorated nicely with tile and looked rather cleaner than other park facilities I’ve seen, but sinks and the toilets work pretty much the same, with a button for flushing instead of a lever. The urinals had no dividers, and the toilet paper was one ply and distributed like paper towel…not the best, I’d say. Oh, and not to forget, the stalls didn’t have doors. So pretty much a normal public toilet dolled up to look a tad better. Just the addition of stall doors would be wonderful for crap like that >>;.

After the Public Convenience Station, we went to some Chinese restaurant to eat, and we both ordered Beef and Tofu over rice. It was cheap, awesome, filling, and because it came with a large bowl of free soup, I wanted to finish off all the soup so as not to waste it. And then I get hit by the dams straining at the walls in the middle of a traffic jam that started all the way on the junction between 101 and 280, which is still a whiles to go. The soup was less than wise…so I had to make pit stop in Oakland REAL BAD, and go into a restroom at Sincere Hardware. It’s run by a Chinese dude, and I found it cool >>;. The restroom, which opens straight into the open world and looked like it was added onto the main building, is surprisingly nice, considering that its a hardware store and it’s Chinese owned >>;. Maybe it’s just the Chinese restaurant restrooms that fail? >>;. It looked like it could pass off for the bathroom of a nice house, but then again, the place does sell the materials to build that sort of a restroom, so perhaps I shouldn’t be that surprised. And everything was perfect about it, beyond lack of seat covers…but I’m sure they’ll get refills! That is a good bathroom that I would without a doubt use again if I needed to >>;.

Then I went to Laney, asked why the fuck I still didn’t get a grade for Minority Studies, then went home and emailed the teacher about the grade. I seriously need the letter grade so I can get a final transcript and shit…*sigh* I hope I haven’t fucked anything up for the class, I really don’t think I did.

Beyond bathrooms…I got a new mp3 player that will hopefully last me longer than 2 years and still be able to hold a good charge. Sadly…no OGG support…yeah, I am horrible >>;.

And now…to sleep some sort of sleep that I will sleep!

So Fucked

So, the night before last religion class, I was up at 3 AM trying to finish off that large paper I had for the class. I didn’t of course >>;. The internet connection was on the fritz as well; my router claimed there was no internet while my modem claimed there was, then when my router said there was a connection the modem said there wasn’t. So, I gave up on the internet and slept three hours before waking up to work on the paper. I’m going to get a C in the class, I think. Yay >>;. The class was really interesting though, I just fail at participation, what can you expect, eh?

The final English essay sucked as well. It was on community college. I only have one semester’s worth of community college experience as a college student, so that was rather out of my league…but, Laney is almost over, 2 more days worth of finals, and I’ll be clear.

So, I found an English translation for Battle Moon Wars, some tactical RPG with Type-Moon characters, and I decided to play it. My time has been raped by it >>;.

And lastly: Mighty Soy. I’d say the reason why it’s 99 cents is because of the poorly thought out mascot >>;. That, or it really does have extra stuff fortifying it >>;.

Listening to: Some remix of the background music for some shitty ass game Cheetahmen II for the NES. That game was apparently legendarily bad because of lack of debugging and was considered impossible to complete. Excepting the music, apparently it was top notch, and multiple remixes of the song were made because of a movie file of the game posted on some Japanese video site. How amusing.

I’m a NEET now

NEET-Not currently engaged in Employment, Education, or Training. That’s me!

So, one bit of my life is over…high school, I’ll never see it again as a student. However, I guess I’m pretty slow…still haven’t much felt the impact. I suppose I’ll start feeling it in the fall…when I really can’t see most of the familiar faces any more >>;.

Graduation, it was a bit of a hassle. The school’s a bit too cheap and big for an indoors venue, so we had it at the CSU East Bay amphitheatre, which was quite sunny…and sucked ass. My hair felt like it was burning up, it was so hot. The rehearsal failed it, it was quite unorganised, and since the shade was not on my side, I spent most of my time burning up. Then, while we were practicing the going up part, people left their seats to get into the shade…which caused much chaos and fail >>;. Furthermore, black jeans fail in summer, but that’s all I have. Oh well…

The real thing was just as crappy, except double the heat and sweat, because we had to wear the gown and formal wear and such. A lot more stuffier than a t-shirt, I must say. Michael kicked ass though, he wore his normal clothes. I wish I did that too…security was rather lax as well. They frisked us, but it was rather simple, dude felt my wallet but didn’t question me about it >>; Cameras and phones were hidden in easily found out places, yet weren’t found >>;. Funny thing though, my hair made the security dude hesitate a bit before confirming that I was a guy and not some girl in blue >>;.

Shade came down about halfway into the ceremony, but that still wasn’t soon enough…

The people, they were quite rowdy, and there was some girl a couple seats away that was screaming her heart out…and blowing my eardrums out as well >>;. Screaming things like “AIEEEEEEEEEEE THATS MY BITCH THAT’S RIGHT SHES MY BITCH AIEEEEEEEE” and other such things. I could have done without it…beach balls were thrown around twice, though the second time security was quite swift about it. It never reached my side, good thing, since I didn’t want to deal with spoiling it for everyone by accidentally knocking it out of the people’s reach. Chances are, that would have happened >>;.

After the whole ceremony, people took pictures, and then left. I ate dinner at some restaurant in Hayward, West Lake. We’ve been going there for years now, but it appears that there is a new owner, and the whole thing has been renovated, with better chairs, tablecloths, plates, and the same bathroom as old >>;. At least they fixed the faucets though >>;.

And that day, I realised how small a world it was. Some kid that I’ve known since middle school, Josh, his dad works as a foreman at the same envelope company as my dad, Tension Envelope. And my mum knows the mum of some other kid that I know, Calvin, who doesn’t even look Chinese anymore, even though his last name is Chan >>;. I apparently took pictures with him in the past…don’t recognise him though. Then at the restaurant, I saw my dentist, his wife and daughter there eating at the table next to us. Rather awkward on my part…he usually criticises my teeth >>;. I have to see him in a couple of weeks, yeah? >>;. Very nice man though, he paid for our meal, so that was very generous of him. I think I also saw Wendy eating dinner in the same restaurant >>;. Small world, isn’t it…

Nazi Zeus

So today was a good day, I suppose. Prior to getting to school, I pressed the button for my UC app, and sent in my shit-of-shit 1st prompt essay. >>;. English testing was relatively good, felt I did ok on it (I would hope so, objective tests are going to be thing things keeping me afloat >>; Mines will be to Doan, and it will be interesting. >>; Biology, I did a lab, screwed up somewhere (not so bad, tho, right?), but otherwise, a rather uneventful day. After school and Quiz Bowl, I went the tree lighting event, served at a table to help fold paper in half to give to kids to stamp on as “cards”. >>; A messy job, but ’twas an amusing event however, and I enjoyed myself immensely, aside from the chilling cold that it was tonight. I wish I got some hot chocolate and cookies though, that stuff looked awesome… >>;

Oh, a lovely plus, some kid left their little plastic doll on the table, so I got to keep it. So, without further ado, introducing Zeus, now with ultra SIEG HEIL action!


Ugh, I have HORRIBLE camera skills.
