"I won't let this build up"

It's Tuesday the 26th of October and that means one thing. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is here! I'll hopefully pick it up tomorrow on my way home from work, assuming the store is open. It better be or else [a tear will come down my face]!

I picked up the Jimmy Eat World CD and feel kinda meh about it. Don't get me wrong, I'll probably like it if I keep listening to it, but when I first popped it in, it was different. Which is good, but it'll take me a while to like the CD. I'm also getting used to a song by the group Keane. I first heard the song on 'One Tree Hill' and after that I've been listening to it on Launch! and I like it. It's a good slow song that is good if you want to just relax. Of course, you would have to somewhat ignore the lyrics for it sounds like there's a relationship going on or something.

I took my Calculus test Thursday night and hopefully did good. I did every problem as best as I could and hopefully come out with an A/B. I'm hoping for the B, A would be cool, but I'll be fine with the B. I hoping for the B because I need a B in that class to satisfy a requirement to enter the College of Engineering. If not then fuck! I would be fine with a C, but any lower and I'll be mad piss at myself.

Well, I have to go and do stuff for school.

Until then...

"Take it away"

Just felt like blogging right now.

I "finished" typing up the paper which is good, but it's crap. It was fine at the beginning, but as the night went on, the paper just went downhill. I'm just going to turn it like it is because I have no time to change any of it. I have calculus test on Thursday and so I have to spend tonight and whatever time have tomorrow to study for it. Hopefully I'll do good and if not then at least get a C.

Until then...

"Take my money"

So...it's Monday morning and I GOT THE REN AND STIMPY DVD! It was nice to finally hold it and get joy from it. I haven't seen an episode yet, but it's 3 discs and that's it. It was in a box, of course, but nothing else came with it other than these two sheets that were worthless. The first was just a security thing to prevent people from stealing, the second was a paper about the video game awards on SpikeTV. Forgot the name of it, but yeah. I'm not sure when I'll get to watching the DVD because I know it won't be anytime this week. I'll probably won't watch until after school is over and I'm on winter break.

I still haven't gone to BestBuy to get the other two DVDs that I want, but I'll do that this Saturday. I did buy something that I didn't mention. I bought comic books. I'm probably dumb for saying that, but eh, it's something I like. I guess I can finally say something to people when they ask what's my hobby. Heh.

I'm going to be broke soon, if I don't learn how to control my passion for vidoe games. I was checking a list of when games would be released. I never take the dates on the list seriously because the dates always changing, but from what I could see, I'm going broke! I'm getting one this week that'll cost $35-$40 bucks. Next week, I'll be getting Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and that's $50+. After that, I'll have to wait, but the games that are coming will all cost me $50+ bucks. I didn't count the number of games that I'll be buying, but it will cost me a fuck load of money.

I didn't write the paper that I said I would, but I'm going to do it today and that's no lie. I mean it. After blogging, I'll start cracking down and getting serious!

Until then...

"Can't seem to fight these feelings"

So it's 2:20 AM where I'm at and felt like blogging. I told myself to type up this paper that's due Thursday, but I'm not. My internet interests has taken over my school interest. The paper isn't really due because it's optional, but I want it done so I don't have to worry about the other ones that follow because this paper will be my last. You might be wondering why I want it done now. It's not because I'm some geek (I am, but not that kind) it's just that I have a calculus test on the same day it's due. Knowing myself, I would type this paper the day before it's due, but I have to study for calc test and on top of that I have to work on Wednesday, so bleh.

On the plus side, I checked Best Buy's weekly ad and I saw that they had a sale of 2 DVDs for $20. I was even more happy when I saw that it was from a selection of horror movies. It was about 10-15 DVDs, some old (Exorcist, Psycho, Dawn of the Dead (1970)) and new (Texas Chainsaw (the new one), Freddy vs. Jason, The Ring). I'm definately picking up Texas Chainsaw and Freddy vs. Jason. I'm also picking up Evil Dead which is a part of the 2 for $20 deal, but I might pick it up alone because I'm not sure if I should also pick up The Ring with it. I liked The Ring, but heard the DVD wasn't packed with much extra. I figured if I didn't then I'd save myself $7-9 dollars, because if I just picked up 3, it would total ~$30 bucks and 4 would have me at $40+. Add on to that the fact that Jimmy Eat World is coming out with their new album this week and that's close to $50 bucks!

Booooooooo! Just checked BestBuy's weekly ad again and noticed that the Texas Chainsaw DVD also has barely any extras with it. The collector's edition of Texas Chainsaw has a whole bunch, but not the one on sale. Booooooo! Also just checked the Freddy vs. Jason and that one has all the goodies. So, I guess I just narrowed my selection to just Evil Dead, F vs. J, and Jimmy Eat World. So that's only ~$30. Sweet! I just saved myself some money. Actually I'm not really sure if I did or not because there's also another purchase that I gotta make.

This purchase involves an old school cartoon that I watched 11-12 years ago. I loved the show and it is probably my favorite show of all time. I may not remember the shows, but I would watch it when it was on. The cartoon I'm speaking of is...Ren and Stimpy! The DVD of the first 2 seasons came out on the 12th and I couldn't believe it. I just can't wait until Monday to pick it up. I have to wait until Monday because I'll be spending Sunday, hopefully, typing up the report that I was supposed to type up tonight. Knowing myself, I probably won't, but oh well!

Until then...

"Rebuild what's left of this child"

I've been having a crap week so far and it only gets worst (or worse) from here on out. I had a paper due today in World Religion and it sucked. I don't think I even reached the minimum of 750 words that was required. I just remember typing it up and printing it. So that's bad, but what's better is that I have another paper to type up in the same class! Yay for me! Actually, I don't really have to type it up since it's optional, but I want to get down with writing essays in the that class so yeah.

What's even more better is the fact that the gaming world has been slow this week! What a bunch of crap. All I see is the same news over and over again (not my fault for checking every 5 seconds). Besides that I'm filled with a little joy because I'll be buying a game this Saturday or maybe Friday night. It's titled Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. It's for the Gamecube and supposedly it's a kick ass game. I can't wait!

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

In the music world, I got the new Chevelle CD about two weeks ago and I can't stop listening to it. When I first popped in the CD and started listening, I was hooked. That's probably the only album I've listened from start to finish and liked every track. I seriously recommend this to any Chevelle fan or rock fan. It rocks!

"I could care less"

The past few days have been exciting. I went to see two movies with my friends and that's it. That's the exciting part. The part I didn't mention is how crappy it was at the same time. The thing that got the "ball of crapness" rolling was the fact that USF lost to Southern Miss. I didn't watch the whole game, but it was crap because they lost by 7 points. The second thing that continued this rolling crapness was that my Raiders lost to the TEXANS! This made me sad to no end. I just couldn't believe that the Raiders were able to lose to the Texans and by as much as 13 points! Jesus H. Christ! That was a horrible game for them.

Of course, a bright side to this is that they have a better record than the Buccaneers or should I say Succaneers? I mean damn! Every since Gruden came on as head coach, they've just declined from what they used to be. I'll give them the fact that they were able to win the Super Bowl, but after that, complete and utter destruction. Just sad.

The final thing that crapped on the "ball of crapness" was a report that was due today. I spent most of yesterday typing it up, but it still sucked. It wasn't technically due because it was optional like every report in the class, but I felt it would be easy to type this paper up and boy was I wrong. I feel the paper wasn't bad, but the conclusion just went off the deep end. I didn't even know what the fuck I was typing by the time I finished. I just didn't care.

So, how do you fare againt my past few days? Good? Same? Worst (or is it worse)?

Until then...
