it's all happening

welp, tomorrow (technically today) is moving day, I get to move stuff to norman. It's gonna be fun, in a "lifting lots of heavy stuff" kind of way. To tell the truth, I'm not bringing a lot of stuff. My load will probably consist of:

3 boxes full of stuff

guitar

marshall half-stack, and my practice amp

table.

gym bag with all of my clothes in it. yeah, I can fit all of my clothes in a gym bag.

I am buying a new bed in norman, until then, I might sleep on the floor or something. Or air matress if I'm feeling luxurious. I'm going to be honest, I'm pretty fucking scared. This might very well be the biggest step i've ever taken, in my whole life. it sounds dumb, but it's true.

Tonight was my last night at starworld 20. I told them my last day would be the 25th, but then I told paul that if he could just not schedule me after tonight that would be cool. They're pretty desperate for hours upstairs anyway so I'm sure nobody else really minds all that much. They were going to schedule me downstairs but I made it very apparent that I didn't want to work downstairs ever again, especially on my last days, and I couldn't guarantee that I would actually show up if they scheduled me down there. they took the hint and didn't schedule me. So yeah, no more starworld. It's just weird... i haven't worked anywhere as long as starworld. That place kind of became a second home to me almost, I was there so much, just working. I saw so many people come and go.

Anyway, yeah. I don't know when we're getting internet up there so it might be a little while before I update again. Not like I update very frequently anyway though. To all you norman people, I look forward to hanging out with you guys a lot and raising a ruckus, or perhaps a brouhaha. Maybe even a hullabaloo. Either way it will be awesome.

nick

let's all wish nick (aka bagadook) a happy birthday, he is 22 years old now, what a crusty old fucker

Also, it's official now, I have a GF! her name is...

QUEZACOTL

just kidding, her name is afy and she's awesome.

ACT

I took the ACT this morning, and I'm actually pretty confident that I did fairly well on it. If I didn't do well, I at least know what to work on now if I want to take it again. I definitely need to study up more on algebra and geometry and trig and stuff like that... everything else on the test was stuff that I could do, although some of the questions on the reading test seemed kind of vague and the scence section was just downright confusing. The last six or so questions on the science were chemistry questions with molecular charts and shit, and that stuff went right over my head in high school, so I had to throw a few wild guesses on those. I ended up not finishing the english section because I thought I could finish it before the five minutes were up, but I didn't. So there were about five or six unanswered questions on the english, but I think every other question I DID answer, I got correct. English, spelling, and grammar, has always been one of my strong points, although I tend to not show it much in my updates (I save my awesome grammar for essays and message board arguments).

I think I'm probably just gonna relax the rest of the day, I forgot how much sitting in a classroom for four hours straight sucks.

well hello there

my site is kind of depressing, I only talk about bad stuff because I tend to forget about updating when I'm not depressed. but I am definitely not depressed today. I got a call from the apartments we're moving to, and we have to either get a cosigner, or put in a double deposit, because I have no credit history and someone else has collections. This is good news though, because that means we're pretty much in, just have to put in a bigger deposit. I was afraid that maybe my hospital bills might get in the way, because I have a pretty large debt. It looks like they've looked past that, or maybe it's just not in my credit history yet.

I went and saw chronicles of narnia today with afy and her brother, it was a really good movie. I read the book like 10 years ago, but I honestly don't think I remembered anything, because well.. i didn't remember anything. It was still cool though, it was a little more kiddish than lord of the rings, but the big fight totally reminded me of WoW. The good guys had gryphons that flew around and scouted on the bad guys, and the bad guys had minotaurs which basically were taurens. if I were in narnia i'd stealth and cheap shot that queen bitch and then if she tried to freeze me i'd vanish out and cheap shot her again, but that's just me, i'm a ninja.

I haven't put in my two weeks at starworld yet, but I think I'm going to on sunday. I got kind of pissed at that place today, I can't even get three people in free, and I've worked there for like two and a half years. Part of me wants to be understanding and relate to the new managers and their decisions, but some of their new rules are dumb and pointless. Somebody who has been working there for as long as I have, should be able to let a few friends in free. It's not like I just got a job there and am exploiting the free movie thing, I rarely bring people up there. I honestly think that if I weren't working in projection, there would be absolutely no point to working there. Projection is probably the only good job there now, and that's pretty subjective depending on what exactly one would consider "good". It's easy work and really laid back, but the pay is shitty and the perks are shitty to nonexistant. Some people think it's awesome that I can sit and watch movies while I work, but you eventually begin to take it for granted and get bored of it. I think working a job where you have to work more, but get paid more, would be a lot better.

But yeah, anyway... I'm excited about moving. I'm nervous and scared but I'm excited. I'm looking forward to hanging out with all of my friends, and hanging out with afy. And starting up an awesome band with munkie, we will rock hard and the heads will bang and the people will MOSH.

I'm taking the ACT tomorrow morning so it would probably be wise to crash out pretty early tonight.

blarf

my sleeping schedule's been a little weird lately, but it's kind of become what some would consider "normal". Last night I fell asleep at 9pm and I woke up at 5am to my cellphone battery beeping, and I've pretty much been up since then. my brain is telling me to go to sleep and get a few hours of sleep in before I actually have to work so I'm not dead tired by the time I get off.

so yeah... i'm really looking forward to moving to norman, although i'm kind of nervous about moving to a new town and living on my own and stuff... I think i can handle it though. I think it's funny how my mom suddenly wants me around now though. After years of dangling the "privilege" of living here over my head, and threatening to kick me out every time we come to some sort of disagreement, it seems funny how quickly that changes when she finds out that I actually am leaving. I know she's just concerned, but sometimes it seems like she just wants to be against whatever I want to do.
