  This is strictly for my own personal benefit, so if anyone other than me happens to actually read this, don't try to make semse of it. Your head will asplode. Apparently my therapist thinks I'm stressed (Hi Cheryl *waves*) and writing stuff down supposedly helps. Livejournal seems to be thr quickest and most convenient way for me to do that. So this is going to be where I string together my random thoughts. Half of the time I'll probably be reliving pleasant memories of the past, and the other times I'll probably be bitching about shit that currently sucks. Maybe all this will help me somehow, although I doubt it. At least it will serve as a nice record of stuff to look bac on.

Where do I begin... I guess one thing I'll do is jot down random memories that pop into my head, seeing as how that happens to me alot for some reason. There's stuff I've forgotten by now that suddenly comes back to me for no apparent reason out of nowhere, so I guess I'll keep track of some of those instead of just ignoring them. I'll try to string them together by finding common themes, but I'll probably do most of the sorting after I've typed all this out. So at first these will probably be all out of chronilogical order and kind of jump all over the place.

I guess the most memories that come back are usually from highschool. I don't know if that's because I liked highschool so much or if the stuff before that is just too far back now. When I first started highschool, I lived on Courtright Lane. It was such a nice neighborhood. People were always outside walking or riding bikes. Everyone had nice houses and yards. Across Trabold was a small enclosed neighborhood where my friend Joe lived. I'd go over to his house basically everyday and play videogames. I remember at one point Brine straps were kind of popular. My OCD and love of collecting things led me to hunt for all the different colored Brine straps. I'd goto the mall and into Dick's where they'd have a little bowl of Brine straps at the checkout counter. I'd buy all the colors I didn't have yet. My favorite one was the tiedye rainbowy one. I was such a dumnass. I'd put all the ones I had on my pants even though I only had one pair of keys. I'd walk around school with like 10 straps clipped to me.

Also down the street was Sean. He owned a Sega Saturn. I'm not sure but I think he had the game NiGHTs which kicked ass. He also liked to play ToeJam and Earl for Genesis. Directly next door to us was Tia's family. They were the epitome of a classic family. But behind their house lived Jenny, Kelly, Brittney and David. I'd hang out with them in their backyard during the summer and stay out until it got really dark. On the other side of our house lived my sister's oriental friend Mimi. Living on Courtright was pretty cool. I had a bedroom with a bunkbed. My brother lived in the basement wearing Crow makeup in the dark with blacklights and blasting NIN music. I spent most of my time at Joe's or riding my bike around the neighborhood. I loved riding my bike so much, I'd just go out and ride around the entire neighborhood over and over for hours.

Alright, I was going to get into alot more but this is boring right now, so I'll come back to it later.

  I had my lobes stretched to 3/4 inch a while back but let them shrink for a while. I recently restretched them, very quickly, and got a little bit of bleeding, but fit the plugs in and they healed over decently. My right lobe was itchy today so I came home to wash it, and I noticed that if I look closely at the inner part of the lobe, there's a faint bluish gray line along the line of where the rip likely would have been. The skin looks all closed up over it and everything, and it doesn't hurt. I was just wondering if anyone who's stretched knows what this is just so I can be aware. It'd be nice to know if it's nothing or if my ear's going to fall off from some horrible disease. Thanks

  Eep. I realized now that I'm older I could get the class ring I actually wanted in highschool. The stupid default one I got sucks, and I'd just get a college ring, but unfortunately the only thing they offer to put on the sides of college rings are your major. So I thought I might just get another highschool ring with the stuff I wanted on it. This is what it'd look like:



It's so much better than my old ring. The only thing is that it's $205. Not too bad as far as rings go, but I don't know if I want to pay $205 for a little ring. Anyone have any ideas of if it's worth it or not?

  Since my birthday is less than a month away, I figured I'd make a list of things that it'd be nice to have. What I really want for my birthday is a freaking apartment or a good job, but I don't see that happening too soon. I'd also like to just spend quality time with people I care about. But since some people seem insistant on asking me what I want every 5 seconds, I'll list some stuff that I wouldn't mind having.

DVDs:

-Nightmare Before Christmas

Gameboy Advance Games:

-Super Mario Advance 2: Mario World
-Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island
-Sonic Advance 1, 2, or 3
-Mega Man and Bass

Other Stuff:

-Media Play's Nightmare Before Christmas items:

-Random stuff from Hot Topic:
shirts, accessories, anything Zim or Nightmare Before Christmas

I'll update it when I think of stuff. : P

  So yea... This past weekend, Alicia, Spike, and I went to Elizabeth's house all the way out in Dansville and stayed there all night infront of a fire in the woods. I've never experienced anything like that before. Got no sleep but it was worth it. Now it's monday night/tuesday morning and I just finished a three hour Bio assignment. Monday morning I got to lay in a ditch at Mt Hope cemetary for a photo project my friend/ride to MCC was doing. How goth is that... lol. Ugh, can't believe it's like 2:45 in the morning. Luckily I don't have to wake up till later than usual, cuz I get picked up at like 12 on tuesdays. But that also means less time at school. Phooey. Oh well. Hopefully it'll be a good day and cool stuff will happen this week. The last Zim dvd comes out tomorow actually, but I don't seem to have as much money as I'd planned. Eeeeeep. We shall see. Biiiiiiiitch... I'll cut you.

  Woo. After a long period of no updates, I can finally dish out the goods. I didn't want to talk about school too much before I had photos, because I wanted yall to know who I was talking about when I said stuff. Luckily, Lish has used her digital camera to take pics of almost everyone at school. We even compiled them into a website for your viewing pleasure. So far there's like 3 pages of people, so if I start telling stories here and you wanna see who someone is, just goto the site and find them under Pics.

Link: McCorner

I won't get into any stories right now because it's like 2am and I'm tired. But look forward to more frequent updates now. When funny shit happens at school I can post about it without worrying you'll have no idea who I'm talking about. Yum.

.....bitch. I'll cut you.

Stuff For Sale

  I talked to someone and apparently the financial aid checks don't come until 7 weeks into the semester. So in order to make some quick money, I'm offering some of my cool stuff up for grabs. This is good stuff, not junk, so it'd be worth it to check it out.

Some of the stuff I might decide I don't want to part with, but just in case I'll list pretty much everything. If a good enough offer is made I might part with something I wouldn't normally. I'm including photos for some of the items in case it helps. Just hover your mouse over the item and if it has a photo the text will become underlined, meaning it's a link to the pic. Here goes...

Video Games

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requium (cube)
Spider-man 2 (cube)
Sonic Adventure DX (cube)
SSX 3 (cube)
Tales of Symphonia (cube)
Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance (cube)
Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2 (cube)
Aggressive Inline (cube)

G3 Wireless Gamecube Controller
MadCatz 59 Block Memory Card

Tomb Raider AoD (ps2)
Metal Gear Solid 2 (ps2)
Grand Theft Auto III (ps2)
Silent Hill 4 (ps2)

Anime

Ai Yori Aoshi Perfect Collection DVDs

Other Stuff

Brand New GPX Discman w/headphones
Tactical Gear Metallic Butane Multicolor Lighter
Final Fantasy VIII Squall and Rinoa misprint wallscroll

I'm not listing any prices because it's all highest-bidder type stuff. Some things may have a price I won't go lower than. For example, Tales of Symphonia is a mint condition 2 disc brand new popular game. It sells for $50 on ebay and is in high demand. So I obviously wouldn't sell that for $10. The discman is brand new, I just got it from the school bookstore, so I probably wouldn't let that go for too cheap either. Other than that, the older games, dvds, and "other stuff" are all fairly low priced. So just inquire if you're interested.

  I never thought I'd say weekends are boring. But after a fun week at MCC, sitting up in my room all weekend is pretty dull. Even with all my video games and my sister visiting. Oh well, back to school tomorrow ^_^

I hope I get my check for my finacial aid leftovers soon. Having lots of money is always fun. Then I don't have to worry about paying my dad rent and my ride to MCC for gas. I'll have a big stash to just pull from.

For anyone who hasn't seen me in a while, the hair on the top of my head is getting long, and I've stopped shaving the underpart which is getting long as well. Soon I shall be basking in the glory that is long hair.

If I can manage to sneak my brother's camera to MCC, (getting it back before he gets home is actually the difficult part) I'll take pics of my hangout spots and my friends and such so you can witness the coolness.

Having a nickname is cool. It sucked when old friends refused to call me what I wanted, but since I've met new people, I tell them my name is Zero and they just start calling me that. No one really asks what my real name is and if they do I refuse to tell them. So lately I've been being called Zero alot more, which makes me feel giddy. I mean I went over to my new friend's house and even their parents call me Zero. It's so neat to hear "Zeroooooo, do you want to stay for dinner?" I am pleased.

Okay. I'll report more on school/hair/money/games as time goes on. Peace out biznatches.

  Today I went to MCC orientation. Someone had told me that it was pointless to go because you don't get anything important, but we got tons of stuff. I found my classes, got my photo ID, "bought" my books, etc. I've known school starts soon for a while now but since I actually went there and was walking around the classrooms it's really sinking in. I can't wait! SCHOOL. I finally get to be doing stuff ahgain. Meeting new people. Learning art shit. Having fun. And my financial aid is so big, whenever I want something I just show them my school ID and all the money in my account shows up. I can get books, materials, supplies, food... and I never have to pay a cent.

MCC is so big. I can't wait to hang out there so much that I know the whole area by heart. Some of the people I saw today were cool. I hope I see them around. Anywho, here's my ID card. Even my mom said I look asesome there.



Can't believe it's finally here. I just hope my waiting 2 years didn't screw things up. All the people that would have been at MCC with me if I'd gone 2 years ago most likely graduated and left. So I won't really know anyone from highschool like most people will. More likely to meet new people then. *leaps down the halls towards classes*

Attention handy people   
11:29pm 25/07/2004
  I recently started a project to make a new kimono, since the one I have is a modern one piece and I want an old samurai 2 piece. I bought all the fabric I needed and drew a million patterns until I was pretty sure I got it right. I think I'm ready to sew, but I have no sewing machine. If anyone can help me, let me know! I don't really want to just borrow a sewing machine, because I have no idea. I'd prefer if someone who knew what they were doing could help me. You don't have to know anything about kimonos, I have the basic pattern. I just need help with a few things I learned about while I was studying. Like how you have to make extra arm room on the sleeves so they don't tear when you move around, and how to attach sleeves to the main piece. If anyone has a sewing machine and some basic knowledge of putting stuff together, please help me. I would love you forever and try to reward your efforts anyway I possibly could, maybe even with money. I'd really hate to come so close and then screw up and need to by all new fabric just because I didn't know I was supposed to add an inch or two here or there for freedom of movement. Thanks in advance!

*puppy eyes*

10:36am 24/07/2004
  Ssam is really starting to piss me off. He suddenly decided to hate me a while back, which is annoying but alright. But recently he's causing trouble for me and it's getting me mad. I posted a, uh, post, in the Rochester community saying I wanted to do stuff this summer, and people that want to meet someone new could respond. Not a date or anything, guys could respond too. I just wanted someone to hang out with. Play video games, watch anime, whatever. So things are going well and people are interested, and then Sam comes in and posts this. It's like wtf...

So I went to his journal and posted a message to him telling him to go away. He deleted it and banned me from posting. So I posted again annonymously and told him I was serious. He deleted that too. So I continued to post and post and started replying. Each of his replies are threats instead of answers. I'm getting rather annoyed. Our little battle is here, but half the comments have been deleted. Seriously, I've been trying to be the mature one here. (a) I haven't deleted his posts trash-talking me. Deleting things only means you have something to hide. (b) No matter how stupid he sounds saying "OMG YOU R A BAD PERSON U PEDOPHILE!", I just keep my cool and respond in a calm and coherent mannor. Hopefully that shows people who's the bigger person. (3) My requests for him to go away and stop talking about me are reasonable. If he wants to hate me among his circle of friends, he may. But ruining new relationships I try to make before they even start? He has no business doing that. If a person makes a mistake in this life, they are not doomed to be alone because of it. They may change and then go on to make new relationships. And Sam has taken it upon himself to be some sort of ruler who thinks he has the power to decide what people deserve or don't deserve, and come in and enforce it. All I know is, if he keeps preventing me from moving on after all the hard work I've done, he's going to have to deal with me.

Grrrr...

  Okay, today was so cool. I went to MCC to take the Accuplacer test and hopefully register for classes. First, they tell me that my grades were so good in highschool that I don't have to take the test and I automatically get put in the highest category. Then I go to register and I actually get all my classes and my schedule done ok. So I goto the financial aid office to see how much aid I get, and guess what? They pay for all of my tuition and all of my books, and then I get an additional 1000 dollars cash back every semester. I was like *blink blink*

Now I can't wait to start school in september. Mewfus!

  I'm bored so I figured I might as well update since I haven't in forever. I haven't really done much other than work. My hours increased each week and now I'm up to roughly 40 a week, so I guess my job is full time now. I work from 3m to 11pm, so my schedule of living has kind of changed. I wake up later in the day than most people, goto work, come home at 11, do my online stuff, play games, goto bed by 2am. Wake up around noon the next day and do it again.

It's not really that bad or anything. Getting a $200 paycheck is pretty cool. I also like the people I'm working with now way more than John and Frank in the back where they make the donuts. I just realized today that the reason I like it better is because I'm with people who are more like me. They have all the guys working in the back, (John, Victor, Frank, Nick...) and they all rough-house and talk dirty and I don't really feel comfortable around them. Then up front they've got all the girls working, (Ashley, Kellie, Erica, Mellisa, etc) and they're all nice sensetive people. Once again it just goes to show I'm not really one of the guys.

So I went from making donuts to working at the counter. Even though counter sucks when it's busy, it's still better than working in back overall. In the back you pretty much never stop working. You go in, there's a list of what you need to do, you work your ass off doing it, and as soon as it's done you go home. Up front is different. You're there a set number of hours whether there's customers or not. So you get lots of time inbetween to relax. Plus in the back it was so hot because of the friers, (they were like some-odd hundred degrees) and upront it's like air conditioned. I stand behind the counter and do various things... I serve people ice cream and donuts, I work the register, I make coffee, clean stuff, and whenever I have time, I draw, eat ice cream, or talk to my coworkers. They're all nice, especially Ashley and Kellie. We're all starting to know eachother better since we've been there a while, and we do favors for eachother. Sometimes one of us goes out and picks up Arbys or chinese for everyone, and we always devide all our work between people all organized-like so it gets done faster. I would have thought since most of the people there are preppy and I'm different, they'd just do their work and not talk to me. But I'm surprised to see that they all tell me about their lives and their friends and their current situations and stuff. So that's cool.

I thought it would be alot harder than it is because I tend to be paranoid and worry. Sometimes it is hard but in the old days I might have just quit because I was scared. I've had to work some pretty damn busy days but I've lived through it and the boss seems to praise me so I keep coming in. A normal job usually lets you work 5 days and then have 2 off, but I worked like 11 days in a row I think it was this month. I was annoyed when I saw it would be that many days, but that week came and went and I survived and got a paycheck out of it which makes it seem worth it. I don't know if I'll still work their once school starts, but I've been working for 2 months and I'll work at least another 2, so all the experience I've gotten and the money I've made has been cool and helpful. I've had to do alot of stuff as a result of this job, like finding my own way to work, catching a bus, managing my time, opening a bank account, getting a debit card, doing the actual work at my job, and sacrificing play time. I'm surprised I've done this much.

So now that I work counter, people can come see me easier. Before they used to have to tell someone at the counter and I'd have to come out from the back, and then I couldn't really talk. But now if you come in when it's not busy (whenever the weather's bad) I can chat for a while. Plus I can get you all the ice cream and donuts you want. So to all the people in Rochester that read this, come visit me sometime on a rainy day. It gets tiring seeing nothing but old men for customers. I usually work monday through saturday but it pretty much changes every week. This week I'm working 3-11 on mon-thursday, I have off friday, 12-3 on saturday, and then 11 to 3 on sunday, but that'll be in the back making donuts cuz John won't be there. I guess I can just post my schedule every week if anyone cares. It's Buckman's Dairy across from the mall on Ridge Rd, you can look it up online or in the phone book if you need to find it.

That's all for now. I'm just eating since I've been working all day, and looking stuff up online. Soon I'll be going to bed. Tomorrow's another 8 hour day so I hope I'm not tired. Thanks to all the friends and family who supported me with this job. My mom was the one who took me to the interview when they called me. No one was home but I felt like it was important that I try so I called her and it turned out she had off of work that day. So she took me to the interview and I got the job instantly. Since then everyone's helped me with rides and motivation. So thanks to everyone. Now go away so I can drink my Faygo.
