It seems that I had 13 great days, only to be followed by 13 days of suck :lol:.

How was my day yesterday? Short. Considering I was up from 7am-5pm. I then slept till 10pm. Woke up, ate greasy pizza, the proceeded to stay up till 3:30am. I then woke up at 6:30am, got ready for school, and hopped on the bus which I am on now. That's my last 24 hours.

How did that work for you? I mean the long nap, and the late bedtime? Because I always want to take a nap on weekdays but I'm afraid that I'll not sleep at night, and then be tired for the rest of the next school day. I really would like to know.

Well, I'm a lot more alert today. I'll end up passing out at 4pm though :lol:
 
Ah, bulls, do I have to say any more? If it's the only time you hear me say this "Things could be better" you know that's because things are 🤬 up.
 
Went to redeem a scratch off ticket that won me $2. Used that $2 to buy a pair of tickets, one which won $4. Tore the winning ticket instead of the losing ticket.
Spring break is over and this is how it ends.
 
Tiring. School sucked, as I was worn out for some reason. After school, I got to be with the girlfriend, and we got in an argument, which is really rare for us, so that was pretty bad. We got over it though, even though it was mostly me, so getting over a fight feels great, especially when it's right before she has to leave to go play a soccer game. It's against Parkland, a bunch of rich, "get-around" (if you know what I mean), pothead girls, so my girlfriend promised to be a little rough and throw in some slide-tackles wherever possible. Then I rode my bike on brand new ply and dirt jumps, as well as worked on building new ramps and jumps which I actually love doing when you have a friend blasting great music and working with friends. I just got home, and had a Whopper, so it seems I've turned a bad day into a good, one. Just more reason to be happy.
 
^ I hate people from Parkland...

But my day was pretty good. School wasn't to bad and after wards I got some food after not eating all day and F1 2011. I've been playing F1 2011 since and really like it do far.
 
Was good up until then end of shop class. I was finishing up straighting out a steering wheel and the actual wheels of that Chevy 4x4 I've been talking about for a bit now. Had it just about done but had to change a little bit. Needless to say the gearbox bolts weren't on all the way and a kid comes up and asks if he can tighten them (stupid me I thought he'd get a half inch ratchet out) and decides to use an impact gun on them. Stripped the threads on everything so you could pull the bolts in and out of the gearbox itself when they were supposed to not be able to move. I'm making him cough up the 200 bucks to replace it.

Tell me about it. When I was working at Dorney, every time some girl would start flirting with me, I'd find out she was from Parkland. Just driving past their school makes me want to hit the kids playing on the field next to the road. I'm also very mean.

:lol: Your not mean, they just deserve it.

You're.

Sorry, I just have to. I do not dislike you, or think it's unintelligent, I think I just have OCD. Anyway, I am though. I can be made happy when I see tools or the like getting hurt or annoyed. Like today, this kid I know has an '05 WRX that was just stunning...lowered (decently) white on white Prodrive (I think) wheels. Sounds beautiful, very clean. Then I heard about him getting green wheels and thought "ew". I saw it today, and it is now "hellaflush" with stretched tires and stupid, pointless amounts of negative camber. He rubs sometimes when he turns. Then, his lug nuts on one of these disgusting new wheels were all coming loose, and he had to drive home. I smiled, hoping it would fall off and cause a good amount of damage. Wordy, wow.
 
My boss is hilarious..... She wants to let me go, but has no grounds. I left early had the appointment on my schedule since Monday morning; it was great saying have a good weekend an hour before my sift was over!!!!

Oh don't worry about it. I do that if I'm not paying attention. Also that sounds terrible, that poor STI. But you gotta wonder why their parents buy them cars like a new EVO or an '04 STI. Maybe it's just because they're rich and idiots.
 
A bit of action in one of my neighbors house. Seattle police did a drug investigation and could not find anything. Aside from the various police cars, van, speaking on the loudspeaker, there was not much action, hoping for someone to get arrested (like in the show Cops) but nothing at all, so pretty much boring.
 
I quit my job after 14 years with the same company.

Is that good or bad? Details would be nice.

Today was great so far, because I haven't started the 3-page research paper due tomorrow on the book "Angela's Ashes". I was awaken by my girlfriend playing with my ear, scaring the 🤬 out of me. After eating french toast for breakfast and packing, we drove back into town to see the Hunger Games, and driving in itself was fun because the roads are all twisty, mountain roads. The movie was okay, but there were some huge things missing from the book, like the bittersweet ending, whereas in the movie it was just a sweet ending because of details left out. Now I'm back home, and about to start this essay. I feel like my day is going to take a bad turn.
 
Well if you take the good, you add the bad, you mix it and you get my day. Average day. Better than a downright crappy day. :)
 
I don't feel good. Saturday I woke up and it was one of those wake up with something in your throat days. Throat still hurts and my heads been hurting on and off. I'm also very tired. So I guess it was a meh day.
 
Today was my sister's birthday so the family came around. It was funny when my cousins came into my room. I was on guitar pro making a guitar pro tab for Art of the Dress (MLP song), and I closed that to reveal MLP on my internet page, close that to my pictures which is full of ponies. And then to close that and reveal my pony desktop background. :lol: I'm surprised they didn't say anything. Throughout today I got my vocal lesson, which went three times longer than usual... So that was good. And I won some joke arguments so I'm happy.
 
Aw man, my vinyl stylus just broke. :(

I was just jammin' to Eric Clapton's "I Shot The Sherriff" when suddenly all sorts of weird noises appeared. I instantly stopped the record and took the cartridge apart only to find out that the stylus was broken in half. Wow. :yuck:

Thankfully, a replacement stylus is only 20€ (Numark Groovetool, cheapest of cheap until I get a whole new setup). I can live with that...
 
A totally normal day for me.

I was up the gym, and as I was changing, Dougie Poynter from McFly comes along and asks me to move so he can get to his locker.

Yes, that's right, Dougie Poynter from the band McFly and winner of 'I'm a Celebrity' asked me to move so he can get to his locker.


Just a normal day.

Was he quite rude about it? Like "Move along, kid." or "Excuse me, could I just get to my locker please?"
 
My day was pretty sweet. I finished my accounting class assignment, submitted the pdf file, did the Unit 2 quiz and scored 80%. Then I had math class, but got out early but got out early to go discuss the problems that the school board issued laptop I use was having. (I was issued one for the problems I have when writing. My arm will literally go numb when I write). I'm also a slow typer but can't fix that. Found out it needed a new battery, swapped the old one out, and went back to class. Where I was then able to do the quadratics questions without graphing. One of the few in my class that doesn't need to graph. Had lunch with my buddies after, then the rest of school day flew by. Now I'm relaxing, listening to Thin Lizzy. All in all, an excellent day I'd say.
 
My day was boring and I'm sooo tiered. I spent most of the day emptying strawberries from punnets to trays to be washed. If you live in the UK and have ever bought an ASDA fruit salad I washed your strawberries in it lol.
 
Pretty good, until I heard what happened at my house when I was in school.

My big sis was home alone sleeping (my Mom went to my cousin's to pick up something) until she heard some banging and glass shattering outside her locked door. This meant that the slide door in our backyard was smashed in, and it was. My sis just sat there in her room, being very calm but could never stopped being frightened. She heard the glass shattering for a while, then afterward heard walking down the hallway, and attempting to open my sis' door. My big sis then proceeded to escape through the window in her room. Now, the suspect knew there was someone in there, so he panicked and ran out to the back. My sis called my Mom first, and then the police. By the time they did arrived, 6 or 7 dispatchers piled in our driveway, including a forensics team and air support. My Mom was there as well. When they collected enough data they were able to track down the suspect and arrest him, in due time (in fact, he was still in the area). Although my sis didn't know what he looked like nor the officers described him specifically, and only said he was black and was in his 20s. The slide door was cleaned up, having only a suspended curtain over it. The wounded glass depicted a baseball bat was used. All objects we own were not stolen, except my DS3 and my TV remote, which was on the floor but seemed like it wasn't thrown.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. Months ago, some idiot kicked their foot in our garage door, but managed to escape. The cops never did tracked him/her down, but we had suspicions that was him.



Even in all of that, we still kept our heads high, but we were very serious on this incident.
 
I've actually had a pretty good few days since I last posted in this thread.

My weekend was spent enjoying the company of my friends, going to see a football match, making a few useful contacts and getting back into GT.

Yesterday I played GT most of the evening and feel in love with it all over again, but I mostly play in arcade mode. I couldn't care less about XP.

Today I got to work in record time and feel like an iron man.

I don't usually work on Mondays and Tuesdays but this week there was a festival so I swapped some work days around and will have the rest of the week off mostly.

Hey, good luck with coping with that tech, really sorry to hear that. Try keeping a weapon in the house so that when that happens you can intimidate them out. Really though, I need to think about where something is in my house to defend myself if something like that were to happen, that way you can be sure nothing will be stolen. At least he's arrested, that would help me a lot.

Yeah, I guess a reasonable weapon will mercifully end a suspect willing to use blunt force. Maybe a Shotgun or something.


Just kidding, or am I :sly:

Anyway, it wasn't all too bad. My parent's perilous exaggeration habits just makes the situation more horrific than what I believe it to be lol.
