Life

So, I am actually a little bit happy right now. Not only am I listening to SotG but, I talk to Nicole the other day for the first time in over a year! IT IS AWESOME. I have missed her a great deal. All my anger at her was all because of how much I missed her. I feel bad though because of the reason...But yeah, anyway, I am looking forward to the prospect of hanging out with her again! And Mego is coming up this weekend and it is going to be a super amount of fun. It's going to be a good weekend.

Also, Jackie is pretty awesome, she managed to know what I was doing at a random time just by the statement of "I love Starcraft" or something along those lines. And if you guys could guess that it was listening to State of the Game, then you are awesome too. But she did it to me, so she gets credit.

Sleepy Jax Is Sleepy

Hey All!

Your friendly neighborhood Jax here, guest blogging for a very tired Sean. However, I am also really tired, so I'm going to keep this short.

Um.

I have art class at 8:30 in the morning, and I'm very excited for to be working on my positive-negetive space project. I'm making skeletons inside of silhouettes of people swing dancing. It's going to be fantastic.

I also bought some delicious foods tonight and am excited to wake up for breakfast tomorrow.

I'm gonna make chocolate oatmeal.

Ugh. I'm tired of having a cold.

If any of you have a pet and live in Wisconsin you should come visit me with your pet. I miss my pets.
You should also give me hugs. (Yeah, I'm silly. Most of you are probably in NC anyway.)


Goodnight!

Peace, Love & Artsy Stuff,

Jax


P.S. Check out this image:


I got a notebook today with this on it =) And now I know t-shirts exist that look like this. And I want one. lol

Melancholy Day

Today was one of the quietest days I have had since I have been in Boone. It's like the world is a little quieter today, like it is a bit more sad, like it is a little darker. I won't say I don't know why, but it just seems to have started to permeate the apartment. Hopefully it will pass quickly, it gives me a tight feeling in my chest of fear.

On a happier note, today is David's birthday! Happy birthday David. Lots of love man, I know you need it right now. I got you a picture, it's cute and I love it. Hopefully David is going to have a wonderful birthday, even if that is going to be super hard.

I have a test tomorrow. I spent the day studying, i hope it is enough to get me a good grade. I really hope so. I'd like another awesome semester.

Wow

Um, this weekend has been crazy. I can't go into details, because it is not my story to tell. But things are very fucked up in our apartment at the moment. So bad that I just used that word. I haven't cursed in this blog yet. So yeah, stuff is pretty crazy. I don't even know what is going to happen in the next few days. I'm a little worried. I picked out the worst thing today to happen, and for once, it happened almost exactly as I hoped it wouldn't. Super sad...man...the world is terrible sometimes. Good thing we have r/aww

Sleepy sleepy sleepy

I feel like I have a lot to talk about but I am no in the state to talk about it at the moment. One thing that is quite important is that Ellyn and David, My roommate, broke up tonight. It is an awesome thing. It needed to happen I think. I hope I think the right stuff. What an odd night. I would like to write it up for you all tomorrow, so if you can, hold me to that.

SotG

Hello! I'm listening to State of the Game! I love SotG! It is my favorite podcast. Have I ever told you that? I told JP at MLG. He thanked me. It makes my insides swell just thinking about it. Also, today was a really long day. I have decided that I need more sleep. So I'm going to be going to bed now. Even though I would really rather not. I was waiting for something to happen...oh well. Night people.

Forgotten Post

I had something I wanted to talk about. but I forgot...I miss Skyping with Jackie. That isn't it though, just an odd statement thrown in here. It's also Josh's 20th birthday today. Happy birthday to him. Oh, i am supposed to write about cereal, off brand frutiy pebbles, which are just as good as the on brand, they are just different. But with the perfect amount of milk they are superb. That comes from Jackie...about as close as I am getting to a guest post from her... :) Anyway, that is all i remember. so to hide my terrible post. Have a cat.

Headache

So I banged my head on the cabinet in Judah's bathroom yesterday when I was getting a screwdriver. My head has been killing me ever sense. I really how it goes away soon because it is quite annoying. I really wish I had a decent amount of stuff to talk about today, but I don't really have much. Just Ellyn and coffee.

Ellyn is my roommates girlfriend. Before they got together me and her would talk about life and such, always purely as friends. We had been trying to get together and have coffee since we had been back at school, but it had proven to be elusive. We finally were able to do it tonight with David chilling in his room while we had some coffee and talked about relationships.

I spent most of my time talking about Jackie and feelings and the goings on there at the current moments. So reminded me that she long ago predicted that I would seek Jackie in more than friendship. I had forgotten to be honest that she said that. She was right. She talked mainly about her and David. And minefield of a conversation. I don't know if I was as careful as I should have been. Hopefully all went well, however.

I'm currently sitting next to Judah who every few minutes tells me something awesome chemistry related that blows my mind. Dude is so Boss.

Good day

Today has been a good day. I don't know why for sure, but I am feeling quite happy despite the fact that i haven't slept much in a good while. My nap today was interrupted by shopping for food. It's okay though because we had an awesome dinner of pork chops, biscuits and gravy (mushroom based), mashed potatoes, okra, black eyed peas, and regular peas. It was a swell meal and if my mother knew i was eating it and finished it off with a doughnut she would not be pleased as it is not healthy at all. So tasty though.

Josh and I went shopping for Fallout 3 today and looked like a classy gay couple as me and him were both dressed quite nicely from previous engagements. I'm a good deal excited about Gears of War 3....which comes out on Tuesday....way to go Epic. I can't really believe it's about to come out. I don't really know how to explain it.

Anyway, today was awesome. Looking forward to a potential awesome week. It could happen.

Saturday, September 17, 2011

Nope. Chuck Testa

I spend too much time on Reddit...

So today was interesting. Basically it was just work, BUT then I talked to Matt on Skype for awhile. Which was very nice. We talked cubing and life and such. He neeeeeds to come to boone!

AND on a super awesome note. SAM is coming to Boone tomorrow! I am SOOOOOOOOO excited for that! Starcraft Saturday!

Thursday, September 15, 2011

Nah

I feel pretty sick. I at too much food tonight at dinner. I'm going to bed. I need a guest blog post.

Wednesday, September 14, 2011

Bah Wednesday

Man today was boring. I think the most interesting thing that I did was wake up. And that is pretty normal so yeah. I did buy both Final Fantasy VII and VIII so tomorrow should at least be a little bit interesting. Quite actually, I have a test and coffee with my roommates girlfriend. It's going to be an interesting day. I hope anyway, plus no work! Also, another super annoying point of today, I forgot the NASL was starting up. So I missed ALL of it. I am so mad at myself right now. I should have been able to catch a decent bit even if my work cut into it. Anyway, today hasn't been the best day anyway so I am going to go to bed now. I haven't had to charge my phone in three days...

Boring Tuesday

Evening all. I just yawned after typing that. I may actually get to bed at a decent time tonight. It did not happen last night. I had the worst time actually falling asleep. My mind wouldn't shut up. So I gave up and got on my computer. There I started talking to Ann. Or Ania, I believe she goes by that now. Ann is a super old friend of mine. I used to have a giant crush on her, which I, of course, kept hidden. She still showed me a lot of awesome literature. I also still have one of her books and think of her when I see it. It was really awesome talking to her again. I always liked the way she spoke and, especially, wrote. I remember this one time that we hung out at the mall. The only time I have ever hung out at a mall really. Not much of a window shopper. Well, I feel I was a good bit awkward, but I think that experience helped me later in life. Seeing how that was my first time alone with a girl. Was quite lost. Glad it was with a friend where (i hope) expectations were low. She has a blog, but be warned, some things there may be a bit...adult. Though all tasteful.

Also, Legend of Dragoon is $45 dollars on amazon. And it is not on the PSN in America just Japan...I'm pissed. FFVII and FFXIII are though for $9.99 each... I may have to buy them...

Bad monday

I was though I was going to have a guest blog today, but I don't think that is going to happen. So here we go!

What a day, it has been quite intense for everyone in my apartment it seems. Josh has been in bed since before 12 as that is when i got home. Judah crashed as soon as he got home. David isn't here, so his day could have been stellar, i don't know. Mine wasn't the greatest to start out with but from 9 to 12 it was pretty awesome. During that time I got off work, walked to Frank Hall, my old dorm, to meet Zach to go out to eat with a huge group of people. I love Zach, he is so awesome. Also in this group was Cody, a bamf and a  legit MP, Dom, ROTC and an awesome dude, Ray, cool person i have recently started to get to know, Terrance, token black man, but in all serious a super nice beast of a man, and JC, my old roommate whom i miss dearly. It was a great time, the group was 14 people in total and we were the loudest in the restaurant. I need to start hanging out with them more often.

Also, i found this on reddit. It reminded me how much i LOVE this game.

I need to play this...

Ninja Roommate

When I first moved in, I didn't see much of my fourth roommate, we called him the Ninja Roommate because we would go to sleep and his stuff would move during the night. We never heard him come in or do anything, but it was obvious that he was there. Recently, I have gotten to know the Ninja Roommate, or Judah High as he is known. Now that school has started he is around more often. He is awesome. I was worried when I first met him last year that maybe things wouldn't work out so well, but, he is a great fourth addition.

He is so knowledgeable he is awesome to talk to. As a double chem major, or focus, or whatever they choose to call it he can overwhelm your brain with chemistry. I have learned so many weird things from him, how cube theory matches up with certain theories in chemistry, what a Bose-Einstein condensate is (kinda), and of course a plethora of chemistry jokes.

Judah, however, is not a one trick pony. No, no, he can do many things. Like make the most tasty frittata i have ever eaten. It was soooo good. It was a part of our breakfast for dinner night we had tonight. The frittata had Onions, tomato, green pepper, mushrooms, garlic, freshly shredded cheese, and basil in it. Oh and was made with 12 eggs. We also had some bacon, which was pretty good but the most mundane thing we had. Our sausage was all natural with no preservatives or chemicals of any kind and was very very tasty. Even our vegetarian agreed. We also had giant chocolate chip and banana pancakes. Oh man, it was a very tasty meal and everyone got the "itis" from it.

He also is a pretty decent game which leads to some awesome conversations about games and just good times in general. His love of Arnold Schwarzenegger has lead me to see the amazing movie Total Recall. It was an pretty awesome guys night, with Pizza and everything. Judah also has a brother named Josh, and he and his brother are in a music group called OK DISCONNECT. They put on an amazing live show. Very enjoyable.

Anyway, this awesome dude has a new blog. Check it out, you all should go vote on his polls as they are super important. Currently the polls are having issues, still awesome to look at though.

Tell Them About Waves"

So i just read a children's book about waves. And I actually learned how waves were formed. I don't know where i picked it up, but I always thought that waves were from the Moon, which in hindsight doesn't really make that much sense. BUT NOW I KNOW!

Anyway, that is just the title. The real thing that is on my mind at the moment is distance. I think i may have mentioned it before, and I am too lazy to check to see that I have, but the Distance between me and Jackie is rather annoying. Through out my short 20 year life i have acquired a decent number of friends, but most of them have either disappeared by now. Jackie is the one that seems to have stuck. We can get into some pretty big fights, and we have, a lot of it being me being stupid, or an ass, or both. We've always made it back together. I wouldn't really call it a friendship at the moment. I like the term that Jackie uses. "Whatever the hell this (insert arm waving here) is." But Distance, distance, it's horrible. I really kinda wonder what would have happened had that not been there. I wonder that a lot actually. It may or may not turn into daydreams.

It sucks in all aspects, because all of my really good old friends that I still talk to are a good bit away. Jackie, as i have been talking about, Megan, who has always been a good distance away, Matt, and he has a girlfriend as well, so that makes it even harder to travel the distance, because she is so awesome it makes a ton of sense why he would rather spend time with her! There should really be a Comma there, but that really needed a exclamation point, so I just going to continue my list. Sam, man, I saw him two weeks ago, but since then we haven't been able to even talk really and it is starting to annoy the hell out of me. Damn Social plans. Anyway, I am pretty sure all 4 of you are reading this, so you all need to come visit eventually. ALL OF YOU!

That's pretty much it i think. Distance sucks. Especially Jackie's, super sad. But i have to get up in three hours. So that is not going to be fun. Also, Matt, I heard you started a wordpress...link please?

Man, I love blogger. I closed Firefox without posting this blog. I had a wave of fear run down my spine. But it is all here.

Friday, September 9, 2011

So, for some reason, I don't feel like blogging today. It may be because I am kinda down. I don't have a solid reason for it, but I am. I really need to snap out of this and get back on my nice "happy" streak. Oh well, I'm Positive that I will bounce back soon. I always seem to! As far as my past couple of days go (yeah yeah yeah, I know I missed yesterday, I wasn't all there yesterday. But the days have been pretty mundane. I hope to sent down and write about something more than just a report on my day, but I just don't have the energy at the moment. Tomorrow I will make a super effort to do one. Hold me to it.

So Tired

I wonder how many posts will have that title. I know that when I am tired that is what I want to name anything, just so I have less to think about. Today was quite a good day though, despite walking back home from work through the rain. The quiz that I forgot about was opened back up so I was able to take it. Plus I got to Chat with Jackie. Super awesome....now if only I would get some letters...anyway, I'm off to sleep. Crazy how the week is almost over really.

Happy days

I got my phone back today. It's nice to feel like I am connected to the world again. I also got my new glasses, the world is clearer again, if only just a little. In even MORE awesome news, i got my Micro Macro shirt today. I put it on as soon as I could unwrap it! It's so amazing!

Besides that there really isn't much else to say about my day. It's been pretty mundane. Kinda disappointingly so. I woke up with a lot of expacations and now at the end of the day I'm just sort of down. Oh well, tomorrow I have lonely work which should be relaxing. No idea what I am going to do there though.

All he wanted was a house.

So, this is funny to me. My friend Josh, the one playing Fallout 3, has been trying to get a house. As far as I know there are two ways in which to get a house. You either a) blow up the bomb in Megaton for the evil people and they give you a house. Or b) you disarm it for Lucas, the town sheriff. Well, my friend, being a mostly good character, disarmed the bomb. Then he went to find the sheriff, who was dead. Now with the bomb disarmed he can't blow it up so he has no house. He took the key from Lucas and then open the armory. Now the entire town of Megaton wants to kill him. All he wanted was a house.

Forgotten Quizes

So, I forgot to do the quiz for my Philosophy class. I thought it was due on Tuesday, but i decided to check tonight just to be sure. Well, it closed 11:55 on Monday, and it was now 12:01 Tuesday. Oh well, I'll just have to do really well on the other ones. I think I can do it. Classes start again tomorrow. I'm not ready, but on the plus note I get my phone back tomorrow. It's going to be nice to be able to contact the outside world again. I know a few people will be excited.

Speaking of people, Mego was supposed to do a blog tonight. I guess she never got around to it. That sucks. Get on that Mego!

Anyway, I'm pretty tired and I'm watching Day[9] Dailies...that is a weird word. Anyway, I'm heading to bed/watching Day[9].

Lazy Weekend

So this has morphed from being just a lazy Sunday to being a lazy weekend. Besides the time that i have worked i have basically done absolutely nothing else. I can't even really talk about anything nerdy with me as i haven't been doing anything. Now that i think about it i don't even know where the time has been going. That is always weird, trying to figure out where time has went. Probably most of it has been spent on Reddit.com/r/starcraft. A new addiction of mine, thanks to Josh, my hipsterish roommate. I have also been trying to do an almost impossible task. Catch up in my Day[9] content. I've watched about 50 videos of his probably 500. And they are not short videos. I'll never catch up. But I shall try my hardest. Speaking of catching up though, I have FINALLY finished the fifth book of Harry Potter. That took me longer than any book I have ever read I feel. It's really quite sad.

Wow that was a long paragraph of odds and ends. Onto some nerdy things. My roommate, Josh, just started playing Fallout 3. Knowing a good deal about this game it is very painful to watch him stumble through. He made the mistake of thinking that he could only use his fists throughout the entire game, and place all his skill points in luck. Well, you can't, at least not when you play like him, terribly (if you are reading this Josh (and I am almost positive you are not (He would want me to say Inception parentheses)) I love you buddy). My big annoyance of watching people play games is the massive amount of questions. Not important ones, but simple self answerable questions. "Where are the quests?" "How do I heal limbs?" "Are Bloat flies dangerous?" Maybe I am a bit of a loner gamer, but i know I figured all that out myself. And I think people should spend some time looking before asking. It probably didn't help that I was in a loner mood today. Hurray nerds. Anyway, he hasn't really done anything important in the game yet, though he almost died in Minefield a few time, both because of the mines and the sniper. I love that town!

Last thing to talk about, go read Jackie's blog. It has a guest post from me, so it is super awesome today, but is generally awesome all the time.

Saturday, September 3, 2011

Lazy Saturday

Today was a very boring day...I didn't really do anything at all. I went shopping with Josh. That is pretty much it. Literally. Besides that I pretty much chilled on my couch. I talked to Jackie a bit today which was nice. Her day wasn't the greatest but I feel that she is enjoying her orientation, though we didn't talk much about it. Tomorrow i promise I'll do a real post, that is more than 4 lines...

Tired

So, there was a small Party at my apartment whit Judah bringing some of his friends over. It was an interesting night with all the people that were coming and going for such a good majority. I met this girl who's mother was a native German. Knowing almost no German myself I of course started talking to her about it, refusing most of the time to speak it. She was quite cute and very interesting, though i do believe she is a good deal older than me, but doesn't honestly matter as she is spoken for. Damn, oh well. I don't know what is up with Judah just bringing over taken women to his gatherings....

So I tried to Text Jackie today, using AIM, it failed horribly. At least i assume it did, we'll find out early morning, she could have fallen asleep i suppose. Speaking of falling asleep, i am right now. I need to do a more awake one soon.

Thursday, September 1, 2011

Sad Day

So i don't think I am doing a good job at the moment with friend management. I am pretty sure that a good number of them are not so happy with me. It has a lot to do with my phone, because I don't have it with me it makes everything relay with me being around my computer, which I haven't been recently. I've missed a good amount of birthday greetings that I should have sent as well as some other important events. (Sorry Jackie...) I am going to try to do better though. We'll see how that goes, hopefully well.

The rest of my day is pretty boring. I destroyed a few levels of Banjo-Kazooie while my roommates chilled around me. They headed out shortly after however with some friends to see a concert returning later with MORE people and an explosion of noise which "chilled" in my apartment for awhile before heading to the Hooka bar.

Class at 10 tomorrow, I should be in bed. But I'm done by 11 so I shall be okay. I'm ready for the weekend to start. Sadly I won't be able to talk to Jackie and I shall miss her dearly. I hope she has a wonderful time at her orientation. I'm sure she will. She is so excited to be at college. I think she is going to do awesome and whatnot. Best of luck to you, Jackie!
