THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE OF THE CENTURY

And by century I mean month.

Wahoo. My room is pretty clean now, and I get to go to Tole house, then do English AP essay practice. Whoohoo.

>>: # Monday, September 29, 2003 _

New poll.

Band was good. We weren't dumb. And now I'm being forced to clean my room. How communist.

I wish UTD had a music program...

Day went pretty well. I mooched food off Will, which was sweet. And I was told by Huff that I had a great sound and I should focus on All-Region or possibly All-State... so maybe I will.

But first I need $2 for a new reed. Oh the horror. And freeciv.

>>: # Sunday, September 28, 2003 _

I played freeciv for a while. It was fun, until Stevo dropped out because he's a spare. But more notably because he has a girlfriend...

Spare.

Now I'm waking up to the realization I probably have some homework for English, and maybe I should study for a random ac dec quiz so I can do good on it.

But I'll probably end up just coding more and maybe some dod maybe.

1490 SAT / 221 PSAT! Roxor.

I found another random quarter on my bed. Something's up.

And still I press on day to day with nothing but matchbooks and sarcasm in my pockets and all I'm waiting for is something worth waiting for.

...

Did we not play Freeciv last night? :(

>>: # Friday, September 26, 2003 _

Yay. We lost. Again. Over and out.

Man. Why must we go as a band to football games? No one watches us at halftime. We don't have an impact on the game. We suck anyway. Everyone hates it. The band directors get paid regardless. All the crap they spend on gas and sodas and water and stuff could be used for other things.

Oops, this rant is getting a bit long. Better get ready for the game.

Also, Will, you forgot to link to freeciv, you spare. It just says "here" and there's no link.

In other news, I forgot to download the Pontifex demo. (I meant to, really!) *emote.*

Commandment:
5. Thou shalt not spawn camp.

DoD is fun. band is not. History projects are not.

That is all.

And make a poll, still.

>>: # Wednesday, September 24, 2003 _

I found a random quarter on my bed! Luck be a lady tonight! It's the sign of good things to come, I'm sure.

I played DoD for a long-ass time today. Like 3 hours. And I even had homework that I chose not to do! I love myself. All night long.

Oh well. Sleep now, or forever hold your peace.

I have a magic deck now. And I hate band.

...

Nothing else to report at this time.

>>: # Tuesday, September 23, 2003 _

Megha promised (again) to add a poll if I changed mine. So here you go. Hopefully she won't flake out again.

I went to Perry to help out Schmidt, but he has a meeting. God. I waited afterschool for an hour and a half so my parents wouldn't have to make so many trips, and for naught. I'm going to do it next Tuesday, for sure.

Waiting for Tole house by thinking about eggdrop project and listening to music and maybe coding a little.

Also, make a poll, you spares. I spent a lot of time on that thing.

>>: # Monday, September 22, 2003 _

Playing DoD now. Le sigh. Life sucks.

Now it's time for band and then back home to waste some more time.

>>: # Sunday, September 21, 2003 _

Guess what I decided.

Obligatory blog so I don't miss a day. Also I'm eating ice cream and doing random crap until 11:00 when I decide whether to actually do my homework for psychology or count on the blow-off factor of the class to make her say "just turn it in next time."

>>: # Saturday, September 20, 2003 _

Come on, slackers. Update your blogs.

>>: # Friday, September 19, 2003 _

Also,
Friday,
Fire it up.
Friday,
Fire it up.

You know the rest. And if you don't, you don't deserve to know the rest.

So we lost horribly (again). But it wasn't all bad. I got to talk to Bondies and Schmidt and Crowder and Obenhaus and Esparza and Shae. (Polysyndeton.)

And my parents had some fast food for me when I got home.

And Will's mom calls me Potts. Elite.

Back from school you know the drill. Listening to Into the Void to pump me up for the game.

GO LIONS ETC

(snoil)

>>: # Thursday, September 18, 2003 _

Adding a new poll about football games. Also, Three Days was sweet, and the day is even sweeter since I have no homework.

Back from school. Home for break. Eating Taco Bueno. Going to Three Days concert after Lion Revue. Too poor to go to Lion Revue.

That's about it. And vote on my poll so I can start a new one, says Megha.

>>: # Wednesday, September 17, 2003 _

Now I have to go to sleep so I can get up early and -- you guessed it -- go to more band practice. You never realize how much band practice there is / how much of a life you don't have until you start a blog.

Well, I finished the poll system! It's pretty neat, if I do say so myself. See for yourself by taking the poll over on the sidebar and then making your own. There are instructions for how to link to them on the site, so read them! And if you have any complaints or requests, do tell me.

Woke up. Went to school Back from school and band. Tired. Blog.

Might play DoD for the first time in forever tonight. Also work on that poll thing since I have not much homework.

Commandment:
4. Thou shalt commit thyself to great pain so as to have the natural right to bitch about it later.

>>: # Tuesday, September 16, 2003 _

:D is the best smiley. All of the other smileys will bow at its mere mention.

AC DEC!

Who wants a poll in their blog? Tell me the keyword name for your poll, the keyword name for each choice, and the actual text for each choice, and I'll rig it up real quick. I am extremely bored.

Got home from school after making up some tests I missed while sick last week. Together they took 30 minutes. I'm sure they were designed to take much longer.

I also downloaded the samples off the Three Days Band site. This confirms my suspicion that they are shallow and unoriginal, but I have only heard two of their songs. I'll still be going to Lion Revue.

Ac-Dec practice at Tole House tonight.

Hmm. There's a pure white streak on my optical mouse and I have no idea what it is. It looks like a burn or paint. More news at 11.

For some reason, doing homework in the morning and going to bed a little early seems more profitable. It seems like I can focus more around 4:00 AM. However, it's a variance in my routine, so I don't think I'll be doing it often.

So I'm sitting here having finished my history project after going to bed early and getting up early. It took me a while because I read some Aaron Burr conspiracies. Irrelevant that Aaron Burr did his thing like 140 years before McKinley.

Bush, our "friend", the 43rd
The people's cries he has not heard
Under fire for Skull and Bones,
Making Iraq our new home.


Mrs. McKee is a commie pinko liberal, so she'll like that.

>>: # Monday, September 15, 2003 _

Commandment:
3. Thou shalt worship no idols before me, except if it's Trent Reznor, because that's who I worship.

Got back from band. (Notice I never say I *just* got back from band because there's always that 30 minute period of slackerdom in between...) The incompetence wasn't so noticable today, really.

I also just finished eating dinner. Homemade hamburgers. Mmm. Dead cows never tasted so good.

Also, I have a history project to do tonight. Whee.

And Ben complimented the blog design. Now if only they would make me an admin of the q3asdf blog.

(Note: I typed this before, but due to the gayness of comcast, it was lost.)

Arbitrary link to Geoff's blog added.

I suspect I may go to Lion Revue, to hear 3DB. But for now I have to sit around, maybe play some NES ROMs, and then go to band to learn Homecoming drill. Er, not learn. I mean stand around and do nothing -- if that was a verb with an object.

Oh well, it's better than marching insanely huge steps.

Hmm. Just look at Will's blog. Most of what I'm thinking is there, except ignore all that Homecoming crap. He's obsessed with it now, I think.

Also, I hung around for a minute or two and listened to Three Days Band practice outside the band hall. The song sounded cool. Maybe a little unoriginal; I couldn't hear if there was any singing.

Also: I am the iD mom for q3asdf. Link on the side.

Commandment:
2. Thou shalt not use Visual Basic. For anything. Ever.

Well, I just woke up. I went to bed at 11:30, and I couldn't get to sleep until 1:30. So don't mind me if I'm kind of cranky this morning.

Commandment:
1. Thou shalt not check Slashdot every 3 hours.

>>: # Sunday, September 14, 2003 _

Minimalistic is the way to go, in case you haven't been informed (geoff)

Homework? Why bother!!

Instead I played NES ROMs. Retro, baby.

Today sucked. Didn't get anything done. Oh well.

Added a counter.

Don't ask me to make your blog pretty like this angsty one, k.

I'll have some things like some notes to other people and a lesson of the day and things. Oh yeah and that link off to the side is for me to post new things so it's useless for you anyway.

Note to Joe: Good slogan.

Lesson of the Day:
Never take random tools from hispanic construction workers.

>>: # Saturday, September 13, 2003 _

Made some changes. I hate the <span> tag so much.

Ran into some old friends I haven't seen for 3 years at SAT practice. Unfortunately, one of those friends was not a good score (I got a 1340 SAT, 209 PSAT.) Blegh.

Got up an hour ago. Ate some Spaghetti-Os. Apparently I talked during my sleep around 4:00 AM today, but my mom couldn't figure out what I was saying. But it was most certainly loud and raucous. Cool.

I have to head out to PSAT/SAT practice in about 15 minutes. My highest score yet is a 1470. WHY CAN'T I DO BETTER AGAGUGU.

So it's good enough to get into UTD, but that's not good enough at all. I'll be back around 5:00.

zzz

Success! Thanks Joe. You are truly a CSS master (I guess, but your page is pretty bland so far.)

Oh, and please tell me if the page shows up weird in your browser. I'll be sure to either laugh at you or work on it.

Now if only I could find a way to get rid of that confounded banner. If they get onto me about all this, I might as well just host it on my own server.

okay, so apparently i'm blogging now for no good reason. thanks a lot, you jerks. I could be using this time to improve myself academically or something.

okay well bye.
