Back on the Mac.

Let's hope she doesn't die again.

I watch too much MTV in the mornings

When the hell did Papa Roach reinvent itself as a pop punk band in the mold of Good Charlotte? I mean, if you're going to rip off other bands, at least rip off good ones like the Strokes do.

Current Music: The Arcade Fire
Current Mood: Wired
Current Book: Dune

1. I read the first five Harry Potter books in seven days. That should be sufficient. However, I am still entirely too cheap to buy Half Blood prince and am seeking someone to loan it to me, seeing as that it will take me two days max to get through it.

2. I've decided that I do not like the films of Wes Anderson.

3. I had a Espresso Double Shot before I took my second Statistics Test today. I made a 63 on my first one. Here's to hoping that I did better. The espresso kept me awake, but here I am, utterly unable to nap. I'm hoping this feeling will last till when I really do need to go to bed.

4. Speaking of Statistics, It Sucks.

5. A few days ago my parents decided to have Chicken Wings for dinner. I hate chicken wings, seeing as that any kind of food where paper towels substitute for napkins are anathema to me. I convinced them to get me Taco Bell. As we were driving home, there was a Mr. Badass driving the car next to us. He had his sunglasses on, his windows up, a cigarette hanging in his mouth and a girl at his side. However, he was driving a Hyundai Tiburon.

I don't think any further explanation is necessary.

6. This summer is like, 2/3ds over. The downside is that it's been pretty crappy. The upside is I'm almost back in Chicago. But still, this is no way to enter Young Adulthood.

rain makes me sad

I'm not sure which is more ridiculous: that Karl Rove can be praised as a whistleblower for outing a CIA agent, or that my Stepdad's dad has one of those novelty ringtones, showing that he is more tech savvy than I.

blackmail and witchcraft

I'll make sure to keep this in mind for when I try to extort money out of politicians.

also, a short story

Around six or something years ago, perhaps a little longer, my mother and I were looking around Barnes and Noble, looking for a good book to buy. On one of the new releases table was a small stack of books. My mom read the first paragraph, said it was good and that she was going to buy it for me. I read the first couple of pages and thought it sucked. The book was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, and after it became apparent that it was A Big Fucking Deal, I assumed that the world had absolutely no taste and that I had a decent investment in a first american edition book that was sure to go through several printing.

Why do I speak of this story? Well, apparently the pope thinks that Harry Potter is Evil, thus leading me to assume that if this loser pope hates Potter, then I must be missing something. Sure enough, I read the first 100 pages of the book last night.

Damn, I have no taste.

update for the sake of update

I'm not really awake. But I refuse to nap because I'm trying to get my sleep schedule back in order. So This is going to be a rambling assemblage of all the crap that's currently going on in my head.

-I sold my Microeconomics textbook for $10. I paid about $75. The only good thing was the cashier girl was totally checking me out. Or at least that's what I'm gonna tell myself. Or something.

-My sleep patterns are completely fucked. Here's a rundown since Friday:
friday night/saturday
1145pm: Get ready for bed
1200am: Andrea calls, wants me to sneak out and go to her boyfriends house
1203: Another call
1215: Another call
1220: Relent
1240: Get to boyfriends house, attempt to play strip blackjack, fails because the ladies are lame
215: Get home
400: Fall asleep
650: Wake up
1000: Fall asleep in car
200pm: Wake up
700: Fall asleep
sunday
700am: Wake up
930: Fall asleep in car
200pm: Wake up
900: Fall asleep
100am: Wake up
That was utterly unnecessary.

I've been up since then. I will fall asleep at a decent hour tonight! Anyway, I leave it to ya'll, my dear readers, to discover the amount of sleep I had. Since I'm entirely too lazy to figure it out.

-Went to the Clinton Library in Little Rock, Arkansas. Was awesome. The library, that is. Little Rock sucked. I got a souvenir for Grant, Kate, and Chris. Remind me ya'll and I'll get them to you guys sometime.

-My 4th (5th?) hard drive on my Mac is dying, so I'm back to using an ancient 200mhz something or other Pentium computer. I hate windows and its propensity to be filled with spy and adware. Damn you Apple for designing such wonderful programs but such terrible hardware!

-Stats starts tomorrow, for five or something weeks. 4 days a week, 1150-150. At least it's not in the evening. But it's during "when Marcos gets hungry" time, which is not good. And it's a actual subject, unlike Economics, which, like psychology, I term "Fake Science". Granted, that's not really true, but the utter incompetence of my microeconomics instructor made me believe that.

-One thing I hate about this browser is I can't see the typos while I'm typing in this fun little window.

-Somehow, this summer is turing into " The summer that got away" and not so much as "The summer that my youth goes to die." Recent events, however, suggest that the former may be correct after all.

-I'm thinking about applying at a temp agency. Money money money?

-I'm all burned out. I swear I will not nap! Expect more soon, since I'm sure something have escaped my mind.

man, firefox sucks

A dictatorship would be a lot easier.
-G.W Bush, 1998

Isn't that the truth.

But then again, who knew that it would, well, actually be true?

Don't hate me because I'm bad at tenses

Hate me because I love Styx. I have "Renegade" playing over and over again. I'm going to make myself sick of this song and then hate it and delete it, as to get rid of its infectious nature away. Then i will repeat this method with "Come Sail Away" and "Mr. Roboto".

I am lame.

But not as lame as the government, who happen to be very bad at lying..

I swear I will keep up with this more often. Really.
