The Scourge of SENIORITIS!!!! (01/04/2006)

By nature I tend to be a passionate person. If I can't do something with a natural zeal or ardor I usually can barely bring myself to do it at all (case in point it's already 11:30 PM and I haven't even begun on my trigonometry homework...). But suddenly I seem to be suffering from a general apathy for most things academic, feeling more and more frequently that my assignments are pointless, and assigned by teachers who seek only to reinforce the importance of their exsistance and boost their egos by assigning them (case in point, the trigonometry homework). I'm hoping I just have a bad case of the sudden onset of the commonly lamented "senoritis," but I'm beginning to think it might have a deeper root. Suddenly my passion for video games and anime, while still remaining strong, has begun to yield to an ever increasing wanderlust, and a desire to travel away from the small three bedroom suburban house that I've resided in for the majority of my life. Coincidentally, the time of our arrival coincided conveniently (hooray for alliteration!!) with mom's sudden consecutive onset of diabetes, cancer, and hepetitis C. As you would imagine this has made her somewhat adverse to driving, and therefore I have essentially been more or less trapped in my house for 8 years, able to leave only when I could coax some other person to drive me around; and I think its finally beginning to crack me up. The worst thing in the world is to recieve large quantities of pamphlets for summer study programs at numerous prestigious universities, but be completely unable to follow up on them for reasons as ridiculous as a lack of transportation. I'm hoping that the change of pace college will bring will bring enough freedom and change with it to calm my wanderlust, but relying on this makes me extremely sensitive to the prospect that, for any reason, colleges may still deny me; and then I'd be stuck in the same town for another two years going to my local community college while slowly being driven more insane(er(er)) (Yes "insanerer" is now a word. I proclaim it to be so, and my will is absolute.)

In any case, I probably should be doing my homework right now, but really I made a new year's resolution to myself to actually update this site regularly, and if you can't fulfill your promises to yourself, academic success is meaningless. Actually I'm just saying that cause I REALLY don't feel like doing it right now, but saying it the other way makes me sound cooler. See? I'm both honest AND lazy. Truly a paragon of societal virtues. Overall I had a pretty bad day today, mainly because of the resumption of school after winter break, and the unique (not really) circumstances that preceded it. As a piece of general advice to the reader, no matter how sure you are that you can still go to sleep on time, don't drink large amounts of caffinated beverages at 12:00 AM. Additionally, if you for some reason are chained down by demonic entities and forced to drink caffine, its generally advisable NOT to get frustrated and stay up until 3 AM on the logic that "well I can't sleep anyway. I might as well play video games." For some reason, that kind of behavior tends not to be condusive to a restful night. It doesn't look like I'm set to have a restful night tonight either, so as much as it pains me I will end my rant for the night to face the long, dark tunnel of pain that is trigonometry. Some might ask how trigonometry is like a tunnel. The answer is beyond even my (admittedly nonexsistant) Extrasensory Perception (EP; ESP is for losers) ability. If you want to know go call Ms. Cleo or something, I don't know.

That's it for now!

The Blogging Adventure Begins!! (01/02/2006)

This is the first blog I've been able to write since I planned to start a blog site a while ago out of sheer boredom, but now that I finally get down to it I can't think of anything interesting to write about. As an anonomous Geocity blogger though theres very little chance that anybody will actually be reading this unless they already know me anyway, and I accept that fact. I mainly decided to start this as a conduit to put my thoughts down on something and to make them more concrete for my self, so in essence this site is more of my online diary than anything intended for actual audiences. If you're bored enough to be searching this site though I'll forgive you for looking over it. I myself have had long periods of boredom when I decided to read other people's Geocity blogs and noticed a few trends that people generally tend to dislike, or view as a sign of a disconcerting immaturity. While few of these concerns distress me personally, on the off chance that a reader somewhere is experiencing a similar fit of boredom there are a few things I'm going to promise to do as little as possible in consideration of the reader's tastes. Firstly, I promise to try and avoid the exaggerated ridiculous flaming and internet abreviation (e.g. OMG [insert something here] IS TEH F***ING LAME ROFLMAO) that plagues so many sites. Secondly, I promise to minimize the use of annoying emotacons that sometimes tend to give blog sites an air of ditsyness and disrupt the flow of the author's thoughts. Finally, I promise to pay attention to reader emails should they be submitted as long as they are written reasonably and thoughtfully (if not, I have no objections to humbling readers with corrosive satire if it is within my ability; and you'd be surprised how early your satirical abilities develop when you've been reading Dilbert books since elementary school). You can reach me at rpgamer93003@yahoo.com (some of the people with better pattern recognition skills and web experience will probably already suspect this from the site URL). With that said, I hope at least one person is reading this even if it's out of a sense of boredom. And if you are reading out of boredom, I hope the things I post will be interesting enough to assuage it a little.

Thats it for now!
