Wham! (George Michael) - Careless Whisper |
] |
Haven't updated in a while, so I thought I would. I was sick a few weeks ago (some kind of stomach virus), and it was pretty bad. Had to go to the emergency room and have an I.V. put in since I was dehydrated. Spent some time in there, talking with my mom and this old lady who I think was lonely. I kind of felt bad, leaving her there alone when I was finally allowed to go home. Hand bruised up where they stuck me, and it was like that for about a week, but it's all better now. Stomach is fine too.
Been getting way too many hours at work lately due to the fact that I'm covering for a guy that's on vacation. Which isn't bad, money-wise. But free time wise, it's the worst. I have no time to talk to friends at all. Not to mention that I'll be going to DC pretty soon to work on a project. I'll be at that for about a month or so, so... this journal will probably be dead for a while. It's gonna be lonely there, to be honest... I don't want to do the project, but it counts towards research requirements that I need to get my degree, and it's faster than taking a class for the same thing. I dunno. I'm torn about what I should do and what I want to do more often than not these days.
After reading this a bit after typing it out... I'm getting depressed, lol.
Oh well.

Wyse - Bring You My Heart |
] |
Had some problems with the electricity in my apartment a few days ago. Since it's hot where I'm at and no electricity = no AC, my mom made me pack a few things and we went to stay in a hotel until the electric problem was fixed. And... now, it's fixed and I'm back here at my place, just typing this out. Other than that, I don't really have much to say. Maybe next time I'll have something to talk about. Keep it real.

L'Arc~en~Ciel - "The Ghost in my Room" |
] |
Hey, how's it going out there? For me, I wish things were
going better. My shift at work wasn't exactly a fun filled adventure. -_-;; I
had to deal with shitty customers, who shot me down when I was throwing around
our warranty service on all games purchased. I'd get half way through it, and
then I'd say it cost money (1, 2, or 3 dollars extra for each game, depending on
the price of it) and they'd be like, "The warranty costs extra? Uh... no
thanks." Of course, these are the same people who come back 2 weeks later,
begging and pleading for us to let them exchange the game they bought for a
brand new copy because their kids or whomever scratched it all to hell. I
usually respond quite simply, "Did you purchase our warranty?” This is usually
followed by, "Uh... no... but I was meaning to!" Well, tough luck; didn't buy
the warranty, you're paying full price if you want a working copy of the same
game. XD But now that I've gotten that little bit out of the way... here's what
really set me off.
Around 7:00 PM, this dumbass looking, punk ass kid comes up
to the counter with a game. Nothing new about that. So, I went to go get the
game for him, and as I was ringing it up... he reaches into his pocket and pulls
out a wad of money. He then did something I wasn't expecting: he raises his
hand above him that's holding the money and begins to sprinkle the money all
over the counter. He then yawns, and nods to the money, "There you go..."
...
....
.....
Something inside of me snapped. My face went beat red
(many people said this afterwards) and I just stood there, not knowing what to
do. I was embarrassed that someone would have the audacity to basically toss
money at me and expect me to go fishing for it. To be honest, I about came over
the other side of the counter and smashed him in the mouth, but... I didn't. I
gathered my composure (well, what was left of it) and picked the money up off
the counter, not saying a word. I handed him his game and then he looks at me
and trying to be a smartass (like he didn't do anything wrong), says, "You are a
kind, kind gentlemen." I then responded, finally, looking him dead in the face,
"For now..." He grabbed his game and left the store.
I went off after that. I was swearing, begging my boss to
let me clock out and chase after this ass so I could beat the living shit out of
him. Nothing at the moment would have made me feel better. He just laughed at
me and said, "You handled that well... there's nothing you could have done."
Nothing I couldn't have done? He's right... if I would have hit the kid, he'd
been in the hospital and I'd been in jail. I wouldn't have wanted that. But
damn it all, it sure would have felt good.
When I look back on it now, it was very uncharacteristic of
me to get that angry over the whole thing. I don't consider myself to be a
person who is easily angered and most people out there who know me know this as
well. But at that moment... it was like I couldn't even breathe. My blood
pressure went up like crazy as well.
So... that was my day. I didn't go to see Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory today either since after work I was worn out. Perhaps
tomorrow I will, since I have Saturday and Sunday off. Oh also... to those that
read this tonight, I'm not sure I'll be on right away to chat since I need to
take a nap for a little while.
Take care out there and I'll see you all soon.

Janne da Arc - "Dear My..." |
] |
I shouldn't be up right now (doctor's appointment in the afternoon), but I
couldn't sleep... so I figured, "Why not update my livejournal? Maybe you'll be
able to sleep afterwards". I wish I had never gotten offline with those I was
chatting with though. As for what I did tonight, I had fun playing
Literati with Chrissy and Chello, and enjoyed talking to Ginny and looking at
her livejournal. ^_^ You all are the best.
Well... I just had an idea while I was typing this out and
here it is: I like to listen to lots of music, like most people do. Most of what
I listen to is jrock/jpop and I thought, "Why not upload a couple of songs that
you like listening to at the moment?" Of course, I have to use yousendit
since it's the easiest way to make music and other stuff to others available.
So, I'll try it out for a little while. Oh yeah, if you download a song, leave a
comment on whether or not you liked any of them. I guess that's about all I can do to tire myself
out.
Now for the real reason you're still reading this... the songs XD.
L'Arc~en~Ciel - "Hitomi no Jyuunin"
The Flare -
"Forgive"
Suneohair - "Waltz" (The ending theme to
Honey & Clover)
While I can't say you all will enjoy these, I do hope that you at least give
them a chance. Peace out. XD

L'Arc~en~Ciel - "Link" |
] |
I've spent the last two nights chatting more than usual with my twin, Chrissy. I've had lots of fun hanging out with her; she's really funny. XD Also, had to go to work at midnight for the damned release of the game "NCAA Football 2006" where a whole 17 people showed up. Wow. Couldn't those 17 people wait a few more hours till we opened up? I guess not. At any rate, I wish I had more to say... I'm really an uninteresting fellow, heh. I wish there was much more to say, but maybe there'll be something interesting happening in my life... kind of like the time I tried to stuff a whole soft taco in my mouth and eat it, but ended up choking on it instead.
...those were the days. ^_^

NEW SODMY - "Romantic Season" |
] |
Beat "Silent Hill 4-The Room" last night and while I thought the game was great, the ending, however, was not. The ending consisted of about 4 minutes of dialouge spoken between the main characters. That's it. >.>;; Good lord, how disapointing. Aside from the bad ending (there are many you can get; I got the best one), it was a solid game: creepy as many of the other Silent Hill games were, lots of interesting characters, and a great storyline overall. Time to move onto another game. Either the Fullmetal Alchemist PS2 game, or the new Arc the Lad game... not sure which one to tackle first, but seeing as I've had the FMA game for a while now, I should probably go after that one first.
Watched the movie, "The Others" the other night, mainly out of boredom. Great movie and nice premise overall. I'm surprised I liked it considering that I'm not a big fan of Nicole Kidman. That lady needs some meat on her bones. Damn near anorexic looking... she needs a sandwich. XD But anyways, she gave a great performance in that movie. She pulls off being a psycho religious fruitcake with ease. Maybe that's how she is offscreen? If you haven't seen "The Others" and like mystery/scary type movies, you should check it out. The ending was totally unexpected, at least for me.
That's it for me. Keep it real.

L'Arc~en~Ciel - "My Dear" |
] |
At the advice of a friend, I decided to start this livejournal thing up again. Now, I'm not the best about updating stuff like this, but I'll do my best.
Now... time to tell you a little about myself (as if you cared).

Age: 23
Location: Somewhere far away.
Likes: Videogames, sleeping, anime, cold weather, and trying out weird foods.
Dislikes: Blue cheese, bad dub jobs, being awake, warm weather, and not having dreams when sleeping.
Turn on's: Honesty, Open-mindedness, curiosity, someone who can put up with me when I'm in one of my moods.
Turn off's: Lying, closed mindedness, being loud, and someone who can't put up with me when I'm in one of my moods. XD
When I grow up, I wanna...: Hopefully still be breathing.
Do I fear old age?: Nope. Can't wait to hit that retirement home and get taken care of by others, lol.
Smoker?: Nope. Never tried it.
Do you drink?: Rarely. I can count how many times I've drank liquor on one hand.
Reading or movies?: I like both, but reading wins this one.
Favorite music?: Jrock, mainly.

Enough of that for now... I'm starting to doze off. Got anything you want to know about me, just post a question and I'll answer it. No such thing as a personal question when it comes to me, heh.
Till next time... keep it real.
