FUN GAME
Let me know what you think. =)
I cannot wait for FRIDAY! Then I will be in LA. I will be partying with my homies Justin, Jenny, Erinn, Nathan and Michelle! It's gonna be freaking awesome!
Had a pretty cool weeknd, on Friday I saw How High. It was DAMN funny! Disclaimer, this movie was DUMB. Do not go in there expecting American Beauty and then get pissed at me. It was damn funny though.
Saturday I chilled with my homies Matt and Nathan. We played some Connect Four, it was hella cool.
Sunday was mom's birthday, so I chilled at home.
Monday I played drums for Christmas Eve mass with my sis and dad (bass and guitar respectively.) It sounded petty good. Mass was quick too! We started at 7 and were done by 7:50, it was amazing. After that I went and saw Lord of The Rings. It was good, but it had no climax, it just ended, but I hear that's how the book is.
Tuesdy I woke up at 7:30, or I should say I was woken up. After 5 hours of sleep, I was not ready to be up, so I quickly grabbed some coffee and woke myself up. Did the presents thing with the family. My 7 year old sis was outta control and stayed that way all day. I scored some badly needed clothes. I also got a couple posters and my sister got me a little pillsbury doghboy doll. Daddy made some waffles then we went up to the juvenile detention center and did music again for their Christmas mass. My dad suckered my sis and I into going up there. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't how I had pictured my Christmas Morning. After that we came home, chilled, ate some food, played some family games. Dad made turkey with ALL the fixings, it was GOOD.
That was my weekend in a nutsell. Tommarrow I might hang with my homie Robyn. I'm hoping to be borrow a car and be able to practice on thursday. Friday afternoon Live 105 is handing out free passes to Orange County. I'm going to try and snag one and then I'm off to LA till Jan 2.
Hope every one has a lovely Kwannza and a Great New Years. There is a chance my drunken ass will stumble online NYE, if you're on and I talk to you, I appologize in advance, cause I'm gonna be FUCKED UP! =)

I broke my car!
=(
It wasn't actually my fault. I was driving along from Hayward to Oakland, on my way to practice. I hit the breaks and then I heard a big loud boom and some thuds. I thought I blew out a tire and pulled over. Checked the tires, looked alright. I continued on my path hearing random thuds every once and a while. We finally get to Oakland and unload everything. Then I looked under the car to investigate. Something is hanging from the axel. Not Good. I call home tell them I can't drive home. Ended up staying at Adam's house, we drank our cares away. =)
So today I get in touch with my dad. He calls the body shop, they don't have any trucks available till late tonight. So daddy comes and picks me up in Hayward. We go over to the studio and pick up my drums and stuff. Daddy takes a look at the car and informs me that the brace that holds the wheel to the axel broke. The metal crystalized and basically just exploded.
They're towing "The Sucrets Box" to San Mateo tonight, but it won't get looked at till Wednesday, with the holiday and all. My dad and I fear that we won't be able to get parts/ it won't be worth fixing. We only paid $1000 for the car, so we may just have to toss the beast into a junk yard. I really need a car though, especially by January 7th, cause that's when I start school. What luck do I have...

Ever feel like a rock star?
The band with Adam is comming along nicely, the songs are getting better, and I'm experimenting with my parts more. We just need a bass player damnit. We work together well, had a practice last thursday and another one tommarow night (technically tonight, blah.) Tonight I went to Matt's casa. Him, Nik, and this dude Spencer and I all jammed in the concept band "Looking For Bucho." It was interesting, we don't have any songs written so it was weird to get in there and try to all play something. Nik had an even harder time trying to sing. He freestlyed though, sang about chocolate chip fudge cookies and masturbation fridays. It was funny. It was hard playing though since we all aqueezed into matt's little bedroom. I also had to use Matt's shitty drums. They are really crappy. I tuned them a little to try and get them to sound better, but whatever.
So I actually have money in my checking account now, with the posibility of more arriving. My dad decided he will pay me to do shit around the house, which includes cleaning, scrubbing, cooking, doing laundry, picking up the kids, watching the kids and what not. It's not the most glamorous job in the world, but pops did put $800 in my bank account, I am very happy! I also FINALLY had an interview @ Best Buy. I called the lady and she was finally there. I went in and had an interview on thursday night. She seemed to be happy with my answers. She told me I would have to meet with the store manager before I could be officially hired, and said it wouldbe "soon." Not sure if this will work out or not, but we'll see what happens. I also got a call from my carpet cleaning neighbor, going to go clean the carpets at the Atherton Public Library with him tommarrow evening. Looks like I'll actually have to go out and buy presents for the family now that I have some money.
Busy Busy Busy, that's me. Haven't been online too much and haven't talked to people. So to the 5 or so people that actually read this thing, "Hi" and I hope everyone has a good weekend and stuff. Happy Birthday to Shayna this weekend, everyone e-mail her. I'm out...

So Lani always has tests on her blog, and now I always do them. It's kind of fun. Today's test was "your lucky number" mine was 7. Savon is a cool number. There was a descrition to go along with it, here's the line that struckme most:
" friends and strangers alike count themselves fortunate to have met you because you're a walking carnival. "
I think that's a positive statement? Something about being a walking carnival, just doesn't sound good to me. What do you guys think?

So I think I'm in a band now.
My friend Adam has a few songs written with another guitarist and they invited me to come jam with them. I went over and jammed ysterday and we meshed really well. Adam seemed happy with mad drumming skills, asked if I'd be interested in doing it again, I said yes. Now we need a bass player and we'd have a band. I've never actually played in a band outside of school, it's kind of a weird feeling. The songs are good though, and could totally get radio play, which would just be awesome. They are a little heavier than some of the stuff on the radio now, but not so heavy that they'd never get played. I'd shit myself if I heard my band on the radio.
Last week of school this week. Normal day of class tommarrow, sociology final on tuesday and then in class english essay on wednesday. Then it's DONE!
So I've been to Best Buy three times in three days. I figured since had not gotten a call I'd just go in there and talk to someone in person. You know, impress them with my determination and shit. Here's how it went:
Friday - "Oh yeah, you need to talk to Arlene, she left an hour ago. Try tommarrow, early afternoon or so."
Saturday - "Oh Arlene? She's not in for another 2 hours, can you come back? No? Ummm, she'll be here all day tommarrow"
Sunday - "Arlene? She's in Marin all day today and tommarrow. Let me have your number, I'll tell her to call you first thing when she gets back."
This is really starting to suck, all I want is to work. Is that too much to ask?

Ren and Stimpy Rock! VH1 now plays the old episodes at Midnight eastern time, but since I have satellite, I get to watch it at 9!! Yay! Ren and Stimpy were sooooo bad ass! Best cartoon ever, except for the Simpsons of course. Find yourself some VH1 late night and get some Ren and Stimpy in your life.
I'm working on my sociology journal right now and had to share this. Here is the question and my answer:
6. Write two scenarios, one that describes an incident that is definitely not sexual harassment, and one that definitely is sexual harassment.
1. Tommy says “Good Morning” to Jane
2. Tommy says “Man I’d like to place my hands upon your fucking sexy ass and squeeze!” to Jane.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! That's a sigh of relief. One week from today I will be completely finished with school until January 7th. What do I have in between? Sociology Journal, two English essays and a sociology final. Not worried at all!!
I have yet to hear from Best Buy. =( I was hoping to start training this week, get in the swing of things next week, and then work my ass off once school is done.
I practiced the joyous today. I'm getting better. I'm no Charlie Benante or nothing, but I'm on my way. =)

The Paper is done! All I can say is, it's about fucking time! Poli Sci is basically over, so is History. Now I have to make up a Sociology Journal by thursday, and an English essay by friday. I've got a 50 question multiple choice, non-cumulative final on tuesday then I am DONE with school!
Hopefully I will hear back from Best Buy tommarrow, I am completely broke! I have 64 bucks in the savings account, 16 bucks in the wallet and $3.98 in the checking account. Nice eh?
She's done! ALL DONE! YES! WOO HOO! Now I gotta whip up a 1-2 pages essay for english and it's time for bed, looks like a good 4 hours of sleep tonight!
