ME!
6/14/99 It's late night again, 1:48 to be exact. I'm really getting tired of the web page I have, everytime I try to write something new and interesting on here, my computer locks up before I save. All of the thought and motivation I had are locked up with that crash. So here is the less motivated version of what I HAD going before.I've graduated, williamsburg is comming, the show is almost done for good, and I'm feeling average. I just have this feeling of lonelyness that keeps reserfacing, and right now it's back. It sucks, I don't like it, and I don't know exactly what to do about it. Also, if anybody reads this stuff at all, please E-mail me and say you do, that way I'll know if anybody cares at all. The general malase of my life seems to be continueing as normal, MG work, drama, friends, frisbie, parties. Oh yeah, shin splints suck, I'm really tired of them, then HURT! I think that I would really like a change to make my life less repative. Mind you I don't mind the other stuff, but I need something extra, hopefully soon. I hope something really good happens for me soon. So for now that is my 2 and 9/10 cents on things.
It's late night, and I just watched Jerry Springer on Chanal 20. My go what a trashy show that is. I've never really realized until now, but damn. Tonights episode was "startaling sex secrets", it had the "usual" of transvestities, lesbians, and gays that are found in most talk shows. I still wonder, where do they find those people? Well life has treated me good recently, the MGB came back from the shop and it looks beautiful (see picture gallery). And I came to the startling realization that the Green Machiene is coming very close to driving around. The scene that Chris and I are working on is going very well and I'm looking forward to preforming it. My tech portfolio on the other hand is a different story... The fest. is comming along ok, I've called all of my schools and gotten most of the stuff ready to go, just a few lose ends to tie up and then sit back and relax. Well, it's getting late and thats my 2.3 cents on things right now, write later.
Well, it's a slow weds. evening, I've spent the day trying to study for my exams. That didn't go so well. Voyager just ended and I didn't think that it was that great an episode. Exam....well...exams, they SUCK. I hate them and they hate me. Fortunatly, I don't have any friday exams so while all you people are test taking, I'll be sleeping. And Erin, I'm telling you, you can't forget the semicolons otherwise you will never get anywhere. Anyway, it's the time of year when you realized just how screwed you really are. And on that note I'm going to retire to bed, oh and because I'm a senior, I don't relly care about exams, except Handler....but thats another story. See ya. (red-green)
Ok it's been oh well about a half year since I've done anything with this page. It's pathetic I know, so sue me. I've just survived 3 days of power outages both on and off. I think it's finally back now. It was intersting, my frineds and I got to know board games and life without power. Hey it gave me things to do like get the green car started, that was cool. Ok so I'm a dork for likeing the fact that I got an old british sports car running, I'm a dork. But I'd like to see you try that :). Oh and I'm not a junior, I'm a SENIOR!!!!! and damn proud of it, but the rest below still pretty much still applies.
Some of my hobbies include playing my clarinet, moddel railroading (it sounds dorky, but it's a ton of fun), computers of course (actually I got several jobs to build computers from my neighbor who I built a macheine for), networking computers (both for LAN parties and for actual use in the real world), web page stuff, QUAKE!, programming, and theater.
Speaking of theater, come see the spring musical at Magruder. It's going to be Anyhting Goes. But I will have a page devoted to that later (I should get a scanner for that). Right now I am the Assistan TD, Co. Sets head, And Co electrical head. And for some strange twist of fate I am now in the show as an Actor (yuck). I was drafted by our wonderful director Mr. D'Anna. He just said "Derek come read this part" and I was in, weird.
Ok, now it's later. Well I have come back froma kickass trip with the band to New York. New York is a really cool place, if you ever get the chance go there! All of the sights everything. It was an experiance that changed me in some ways. Really neet trip. I got back to Drama on tuesday because of the bomb scare that happened on monday. But I got back and felt kinda at home. Back to my second disfunctional family, those of you in drama know exactly what I mean. But it's good to be back. Gee, this 'Me' section is starting to turn into a section on my ramblings(yeah right, like i'd ever do anything with it if I had one. If your reading this now you know how much I update this thing.) Oh and on a side note, you 'poperatzies' of the drama club need to find a better life. To quote my 3rd grade teacher, "You're in my bubble".
Do you ever stop to realize just how important thigs really are until you start to lose them? Ok, you probably think that this is a stupid thing but it's important to me and all of the other people who are involeved with Mrs. Mollers C++ classes. SHE IS TRYING TO TAKE AWAY DOS FROM US!!!!!!!! This is treason, travisty and all of those other big words that I can think of. Life without DOS is unthinkable, incomprehensable, painful, and generally nasty. If you want to help save DOs in Mrs. Mollers class please send an E-mail to the save dos organization.
E-mail to:Save Dos in Mrs. Mollers Class
. Ever peice of mail that I get will help to save the poor hackers....I mean programmers in this class get back what they so desperatly need, that so basic and nessisary part of computer life, DOS. Don't just do it for you, do it for the children.Anywho, I feel like myself again. That feels good, it sounds dumb but now I'm enjoying life again. Well I'm out of thing to say, and my fingers are tired so this is Yibby signing out for now. Tune in next time, same channel, and see whats up.
Report from school, on sunday. Yes I'm at School on sunday, I'm working with the DBC on their Easter sermon. Yes it's unethical, but hey, it's money.
Ok, well this is turning into my thoughts page. Oh well. It's about 11:00 on sunday night right now and I'm sitting here in my boxers at my computer listening to the symphonic star trek CD that I own thinking back on what a coo/weird/unfoggetable spring break this has been. it all started on friday when I went to go fix Ziggy's car becuase it wouldn't start. Well it will never start again, it caught fire and burned to a crisp. I had nothing to do with causing the car to light on fire and probably saved him from getting seriously hurt or killed. Seeing as how if he had been in the car at the time it went up in flames, it would have been bad. Keeping in mind that this all happened on "Good" friday it was somehow humnorus in a weird and sick way.
The weekend wasn't that interesting, just more drama and haging around at peoples houses. This led to pretty much all of the rest of the week and it was cool. Drama from 10 till 1/2 then play a sport of somesort somewhere. After that go to someones house and crash. Thursday was very interesting. Very interesting indeed, well she followed though on her end of the bargin so we had to follow through with ours. I'll just leave it at that. If you really want to know more E-mail me and I'll send you the whole story, or just ask Justin or myself.
The whole week finished off on a good note for me. I spent most of the day with my dad, I enjoy that because I don't see him that often. But he and I did stuff and because of that my MG is now fixed so I can drive it around again, thank god becasue I was getting sick of that damn Crown Victoria, that thing is a boat, you need a harbor master to park the damn thing.
For this spring break I would like to thank the following people: Justin, for letting spend a few nights over at his house. Nicole, for just beeing a good friend, and this is a gripe not thanks, but for putting ustin and I though hell. Chris, for getting shaft, god thats a bad movie. Ziggy, for being Ziggy. Doobie, for making for and interesting break, yes my neck has healed from football, and Doobie, YOUR NAME ISN'T BRAK!!!! Adam, for putting us up at is house for a while. Burnetto, for have a cool lan party. Erin, for taking my car keys, and for convincing me to go to chicken out to eat for dinner, I'm hooked on that place now. Scott, for nt annyingme that much, and for a humorus round of golf. And everybody else for making this a really cool spring break. I'm tired so I'm going to bed, see ya next time.
