| Hey guys, I really need your prayers right now. I have so much work and so little time to do it in that I honestly think that I am going to go crazy. I barely have any free time. I always feel like I never get any sleep and it's starting to affect me. I just can't get up in the mornings anymore. I also really miss the relationships I used to have with people that I now don't have. Life has the suckage power of the supposed black whole at the center of the milky way. All that added to the fact that I can't really rest when I sleep at night. Just pray that I can get through my constitutional development class, my term paper (12 sources!!!?!?!?!? omg wtf bbq!!????), Greek (I have a midterm next friday. Yes, a midterm!!!! No, I can't make sense of it either.) (And all those fun english to greek sentences that I have to do.), and just the rest of my classes in general. I'm pretty sure I have Logic under control and I have a test in that this friday (YAY!!!). Thanks guys. I think that just writing this helped me a little bit. I love you all (yes, even you) and God bless. | | |
| Well guys, It's that time again. The time that I should be studying/sleeping/ generally doing something important and worthwhile and what do I decide to do? Yes, you guessed it. Update my Xanga. With only four days left until I turn twenty years old, I really don't know what to do. Lately it just seems like I've been "going through the motions" and haven't really been in the captain's chair. I put myself on autopilot and just go through classes until I'm not in class anymore. During this time my mind just goes places and lately I have been reflecting on my life and things really haven't turned out the way I planned them. But, hey they never really do, do they? In just this past year I lost my best friend and I never thought that ever in eleventy billion years that this would happen to me again. I thought we were gonna be best friends forever and he would always be there. But, such is life. It just hurts when you loose someone you love, no matter the circumstances (although they didn't really help out either). My family tells me that I am fiercely loyal and I would have to agree. My friends and family are extremely important to me and I would do anything for them. I guess subconsciously I expect the same from them. But, if everybody were like me... then the world would be pretty messed up. Imagine a would where everyone acts like you and talks like you and even looks like you. Crazy I know.
So any thoughts on what I should do for the momentous occasion that will hit the small town of Waco on Sunday, Feb. 12 (My Birthday!!!!!)? Should I climb the nearest mountain and give a shoutout? Should I run through the streets wearing nothing but a smile? Shall I finish my English paper? I really don't know, I want to do something epic, but I feel like I need something more than I have now to do it. Maybe it's a best friend. Maybe it's the courage to face the inevitability that is my future. Maybe it's the thoughts that are spilling out of my head as I type and you read. Maybe I need to escape. That's it.... I'll run away too Norway and become a Viking Warlord. The next time you will see me I'll be on CNN starting WW 3 by declaring the US my country because dangit, the Vikings "discovered" it first. And then watch as Bush declares a calculated air strike on my position until, too late, he realizes I am back in Waco. Ohhh the humanity.
Well I guess I should go to bed soon. I do have class in about 8 hours. ::heavy sigh:: Well I hope all of you are well and that all your respective lives are going greatly. Seriously, let me know what you guys think I should do for my birthday and yes surprise parties are welcome.
P. S. The seventh was my late mentor's birthday and maybe that's why I'm all emotional, it is still crazy just to think that he isn't with us anymore. I will always remember the valuable lessons he taught me.
R.I.P. Dr. K. We all miss you so much.
P.P.S. GRRRRRRRRRR. ARRRRRRRGGGGHHHH. | | |
| Holy....!!! I finished my Astronomy final in 20 minutes. That has got to be some kind of record. Now I am off to take my History final... yay!!!! And the rest of my day will be spent working on Greek (I have that final at 4:30pm tomorrow). My last final is Saturday at 9am in Mythology wohooo!!! Wish me luck guys.. Did you guys know that they might be building a bridge over the Bearing Strait.. Crazy.
Wait a sec, ..it's not February. | | |
| Well finals are upon us. Sadly I am currently unable to study for both of my finals tomorrow because I suddenly felt compelled to update my xanga. Wohoooo!!! What have I been doing instead? After I got back from the study session I had to go to today, instead of jumping straight into work, I sat right down on the couch. I watched a 2 hour documentary about the Bermuda triangle. Some interesting theories were thrown down in this program. The best were that Atlantis and or the government was responsible for all the strange disappearances. They also discussed the possibilities of wormholes, UFO's, and alternate universes. It was overall enjoyable and some of the theories were just hilarious. I also felt compelled to watch some cartoons and music videos.
Then came the internet. I have now learned, without a shadow of a doubt, proven by scientific facts, evidence and mathematical equations, that the moon landing was faked. I also discovered that Elvis was still alive and living in a secret Graceland bunker with Hitler. I then looked up some video game strategies to games I no longer can play because my sister has stolen my PS2 (curse you woman!!!!!). I tell you guys, the internet is one crazy black hole that can suck away time like no other.
So I finally sat down to study some History, and study I did. After that I decided to watch a 2 hour special about Stonehenge and about 15 minutes in, I decided that I really needed to get to studying for my Astronomy final (it is at 9am tomorrow after all). So I sit down and decide to update my xanga. It’s always hard to study at this time of year. I mean we just came back from Thanksgiving. I saw the glorious light and warmth that was home and I didn't want to leave. I want to go back now more than I can put into words.
On another note, it is going to be like 17 frickin' degrees outside tonight. This is Texas and about three or so days ago it was like 80 frickin' degrees. I saw on the weather channel that we might be getting snow because of the extreme cold and I was like omg wtf? lmao bbq llama golf. My car will probably freeze and I'll have to jog to my final in the morning. But, hey its things like that that makes for a great story.
Lastly, be safe, God bless, good luck with finals (those of you that have them) and pray that I can study and do well on mine. I love you all and hope that you all have a Merry Christmas (because hey, it will probably be February before I update this thing again. On that thought, I hope you all have a great New Years as well (don't make any resolutions you can't keep, eh) My New Year's Resolution is to not make any New Year's Resolutions.... Crap! Oh, well there's always next year). | | |
| Well guys I’m back after a tiny hiatus. I’m sure most of you are thinking, “Wow, Tyler is back! Time to rejoice.” Others I’m sure are saying, “Hey, who the heck is this guy? And why am I getting an E-mail?” All craziness aside. I’m going to be serious for a moment. I was watching a hilarious episode of “How I Met Your Mother” (and no he still hasn’t met her yet (or maybe he has (hmmm???))) and I saw this commercial encouraging people to quit smoking. They said that smoking was all bad for you and stuff. They said the best way to decrease the health risks from smoking was to quit. This commercial was done be Phillip Morris USA. You know, only the biggest producer of tobacco products ever. If they really want you to quit smoking, it’s really not that hard. Just stop making them. It is really that simple. I apologize to my loyal fan base for not updating sooner, but I really didn’t feel like it and had eleven billionty things to do. Nothing too serious has gone down recently. Just a couple minor things here and there. If you want to give me the fifth degree just email me or comment or something.
So, I’m sure most of you are anxiously anticipating an update on the whole Adam thing. He left. He went off and joined the army. And he apparently never wants to talk to me again. I would like to thank all that helped me with this time in my life. It is very hard to loose someone you consider a brother. I still have not really let go of him, but it is now up to him to contact me if he wants to see me. I’ve tried until I don’t want to try anymore. It seems futile and if he doesn’t want to see me anymore, that is his problem. I’m sure he has his reasons, as unintelligible as they may be. But, the way it all went down was very painful.
In other news, “Kingdom of Heaven” will soon be released on DVD. I watched this movie over the summer in my hotel room in Hawaii and it made me want to jump off the balcony. I swear it is one of the worst movies in recent memory. The acting was horrible, but it didn’t even matter because the movie was so historically inaccurate I wanted to cry. I know, I know, it’s just a movie, blah, blah, blah. But, I had just studied the third crusade in my history class and I was excited to see this period in film. They apparently completely abandoned all historical fact and just made up random people. Besides the historical aspect, there were times when people who had never used a sword before, would pick one up and suddenly be fighting like they had been born with one. It reminded me of “House of the Dead” because in that movie people also have sudden expertise with weapons they have never even seen before and they also had the unlimited ammo cheat. (“House of the Dead” by the way is one of the greatest movies to make fun of at a party or other large gathering. I rented this for one of my birthday parties back in high-school and my friends and I had such a fun time laughing about how horrible the movie was. In short, it’s one of the funniest movies that wasn’t meant to be funny. That night will always be one of my fondest memories.) I encourage you all to stay away from this horrible, horrible movie. But, if for some reason you must see it, don’t believe a damn thing it tells you! | | |
