Make a comment, and--

1. I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll challenge you to try something.
3. I'll pick a colour that I associate with you.
4. I'll tell you something I like about you.
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory about you.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll ask you something I've always wanted to ask you.
(8. Post this on your journal. Rinse. Repeat.)

Dad's new form of entertainment is to insult me in a very nice tone of voice. For example, early today, he asks if Steve is leaving soon. I say yeah, end of the month. He askes, sweet as sugar, mind you, "Well, if he cares about you so much, why is he leaving?" like it was everyday conversation. Marcy got pissed. Dragged him off to yell at him, and told me to go ahead and leave as soon as I could. All's I could say to him was "not everyone can stop everything they've got planned for their lovelife. It'd be selfish to think so, huh, dad?" I come home later today, and he's still doing the same thing. Oh well. He'll be happy when everyone is out of Kentucky. That's one out of many. Still...everything he said is pretty damn unfair to say.

Now is the point in my life where I realize my worth and/or value in the world. Ezekial and I had a strange conversation a while ago about it, and his analyzation confirms my views. Everything is starting to boil down to a few glistening fragments of what is important: school, deriving great pleasure from assisting others, etc. Sometime before my grandmother died, I remember her saying something along the lines of having to stick with what you're good at. But since I'm not good at much of anything...I suppose I have lots to figure out. I hope to one day make someone, anyone, proud of me.

I do apologize for all of the craptastic posts recently. I am normally a very happy person...but so many things have been worrying the hell outta me lately. I am coping with putting them off, for now, and just getting on with other plans. Mommy says that I should forget about worrying, and ask someone to spend one-on-one time with me for a day, just to clear the air, ya know...but I doubt anyone would wanna do that. ^^;; As realization kicks in, things are getting better. Sorta.


So inspite of it all, let's be positive. Congrats to dad and Marcy for tieing the knot. Marcy...good luck. XD

( And here's a questionaire, for fun. )

Decent weekend. No sleep at all, nearly, but that's unimportant, considering what got done; hung out with most of my friends, and saw Kit again. <3 Lots of creative things to do this weekend, but descriptions only come to good children. Rather...those that care in the first place. Things are fine at the moment. =3

Name 5 of life's simple pleasures that you like the most. Try to be creative and original and not to use things that someone else has already used. Tag 5 people on your list.

1. Sleeping on a day when I got nothing planned.

2. Sleeping on a day when I got nothing planned next to Kit.

3. Doing nice things for people. I can't help it, but I get a real high from helping people out. Especially things like cooking for others at my house, and having them over to just chill and game awhile.

4. Some god-damn AppleJacks and Unreal Tournament in the morning. MMMMM.

5. Laying on a bed with friends, watching needlessly violent films.

I'd say the turkey break was pretty decent. Went to Cincy, as always, and dad and Marcy had their own shindig as well. I didn't get very much done, but that's the point of the holidays; just sit there and relax. I missed most of the meet-up on saturday, due to work, and while that BLEW, I still got to hang with the boys, which was fun. Overview: ate, drove, played Halo. Now I sit at me compu-tor, typing away like a chipmunk on crack, trying to write something, anything.

Last week and weekend, I embraced my inner vixen--but she still beat me up. ><

Crap. Tagged for this one. I'll get you yet, Joe.

( 20 Random Me Things: )

I was thinking about the old Looney Toons cartoons. I miss the hell outta those, man! You remember when you'd come home from school, watch Tiny Toons and Animaniacs, then Looney Toons would come on in the evening? Yeeaah. Racial insults, political incorrectness, cartoon violence and all. If you seem 'em on nowadays, they're heavily edited. They take out the ones where Bugs gets shot, the wartime episodes, and anything that could "affect the youth". Me, personally, I was cracking up at the old black woman on Tom and Jerry who was straight out of Uncle Tom's Cabin. I think I have some of the older cartoons still on tape somewhere.

I need to do homework and draw. Meh. Churr.










Just beat me with a newspaper already. ><

Word of the day: debauchery.

One of the funniest things that happened over Fall Break was when I got a call from Jessie who went to get something our of Alex's car. She was scared because some moronic guy was trying to get her to come somewhere with him. I told everyone in the room, and we all ran out super-hero style--Jaime, Ed, myself, Kit, and Alex. when we got to the car, Jessie was fine, and the guy was gone, but what cracked me up was as we were walking back and everything was fine, Lar came out of the front door all "Where's this bitch at?!" at the last minute. That floored me for a few minutes. Not to mention as we ran by like X-men to the Blackbird, the guy that was bothering Jessie saw us running past his door, went "Oh shit!", and locked himself inside. We think he was going to try to steal her for wicked purposes.

I keep forgetting it's wednesday. Only three days here at school! My weekend's gonna be busy as hell, though--seeing "Stomp" friday night, Brandon's birthday party is being held at Petrus as well, MSL, helping mommy pack next morning, doing Kit's hair, going to the halloween party in Lexington, etcetera. These next three weekends will be busy as well. Andreius will be here, Panda's coming to visit, Halloweeeen....all that.

Time to do constructive things.
..Like look through all the stuff I found in Jennifer's room! I am RICH in stuff that was once mine that she stole from me! *dances awey*










Remember to use the word of the day in a sentence, kids.

01. Reply with your name and I will write something about you.
02. I will then tell what song/movie remind me of you.
03. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, it would be...
04. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.

07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
08. Put this in your journal.

In other news, Saddam Hussein really likes Doritos. What we won't publish. Well, it's better than something like "This random fellow died today...and now the weather!"

This one's Jessie's fault.

Enough of that. It's thursday, it's time to go home, and home is where it's time to go. Actually, I have a test to take, as well as two more classes...so I can't leave yet. So I bide my time wisely with 15 chapters of Harriet Beecher Stowe to read. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is well and good and all, but I think the prof's piling this stuff on, man. She realized half of us didn't even finish the previous reading assignment, and thus updated our agenda. Ha.

So I saw more family yesterday, particularly cousin Ted whom Lar and I stayed with when I went to California years ago. It's oddness to the extreme how much he resembles Kit's dad. The mustache, attitude, mannerisms...clones, anyone? Also, yesterday, I came upon a small ad for a place in Louisville that actually instructs kenjutsu and kenpo. o.O I looked into it, and it turns out Yoshin Dojo teaches Katori Shinto Ryu Kenjutsu, Kaisha Ryu Kenjutsu, and Araki Ryu Kenpo. I'm honestly surprised and intriuged. The style I went by is Muso Shinden Ryu if I remember properly, so I am eager to see what these guys have to offer. Revenge, Hwang's Dojo, reveeeennggee!!

My tummy hurts, and I can't tell if it was the situps I did yesterday, or gastric acid eating me whole. Is that bad?




And to my dearest Kit--happy birthday, darling. <3
If you're not having a good time...then at least Foxie is!

Things I did today: played DDR, got the new SOAD album, and saw Sin City. The album reapproves System as my favorite rock band, and I especially like "Revenga". Sin City just makes me shudder with delight. (Did you SEE how the blood went--and then the Pez dispenser--he ninja-stunned--!!) Awesome movie. I needed a cigarette badly the moment it was over. That's how damn good it was--blood, gore, and black and white. Oh yeah.

4. if we could live together in an apartment somewhere, wehere would it be?
An apartment in the highlands, off Bardstown...down the street from all the music shops!
5. you and kit doing alright i suppose correct?
Yessuh. ^^ But I'm still gonna take his kingdom one day.
---------------------------------------------------------
Panda's questions:
1) So you're bi-curious???
Open-minded...yes...sorta...
2) What is your ideal pretty guy? DETAIL please.
The ones that pull off being handsome, and rather pretty at the same time. I believe you know who that is...because we know him. ^.~

I really, really hate racism. And republican, redneck, closed-minded, NASCAR-watching...you get the idea.

Hung out with the Sacfurs, played more TimeSplitters, double-team Spruce, and other things that can't be said in polite company. Don't worry, if you're still around during the summer, I'll be back. ;}
2) What made you think smoking is a good idea?
I began smoking because nothing I do to relieve stress (exercise/training, meditation, studying) works in the least. I'm explaining more of this in my next journal.

A certain mistake I made a few months back.
3. if i jumped on yer head, what would happen?

Mmyah. Mmyah.

I can honestly say that I'm a bit bummed. My mother and father are currently in battle of me getting to CA to visit. Mom really wants that I should go, and dad...well, after the airport disaster, he'd rather me stay. Not to mention he thinks going would be a waste of time. So while they battle it out, I get to watch from the middle, because niether of them listen to me anyway! I actually told mom if it was going to get ugly to forget the whole thing, but nooo NOO no no no, "You're father's on a tyrannical streak, Meredith. I have to talk to him." We'll just have to see how this turns out. ::waves a pennant:: Um...go mom?

In other news, finals, finals, and more finals. I'm extremely nervous about my harp jury because I flubbed it last time, and am probably going to do it again. I'm practicing my butt off, though, so I'm trying. Piano will be a cakewalk. That's that.

In other other news, there's a heap o' shit happening at the apartment. Apparently, Xtina's friend thinks that Lar stole her paycheck. Good lord, man, is there a single place in the US without drama over pettiness? Like, anywhere???

Whatever it is, these things get figured out. If it's one thing I'm known for, it's staying hopeful. Although, in honor of my favorite FF8 figure, Squall, I do practice his quote: "If you expect the worst to happen, you can handle anything."

Well, Lydia made me do it. I'll get you next time, Gadget.

Who are you?
Are we friends?
If we've met, when and how did we meet?
What social event or place would you like to go to with me?
Would you kiss me?
Describe me in one word.
What was your first impression?
Do you still think that way about me now?
What reminds you of me?
If you could give me anything what would it be?
How well do you know me?
When's the last time you saw me?
Ever wanted to tell me something but couldn't?
Are you going to put this on your LiveJournal and see what I say about you?

And that's the news.

Now get to work, bitches! Mwa ha.

Now to bustle about on this computer...I still have a lot of things to work with, here.

Oh yeah, Breanna would like to let everyone know that she loves ferrets, and is secretly one. That is all!

I shall speak of my weekend. It was decent, thankfully. I played the new Time Splitters with Josh, in which I kept laughing my ass off, and we phoned Kit for a while, too. I am definitely a fan of the song "Like a Robot". Makes me wanna spraypaint horribly disfigured robots on my car, and dance at every red light I encounter. X^ Anyway, saw Panda and Jaime at one point, and talked with Lar about astral projection...which she is slowly getting the hang of. No, really...she's good enough to go through the bottom floors and see what kind of deodorant her neighbors use. o.O; This makes me glad I am 2 miles away.

Also--probably the best part of my weekend--I sparred with Jaime again. Finally, after those long years! I was pretty damn rusty, but we're going to try and make it a bit more regular. I think more Kenjutsu and start Kenpo basics for me, and he wants to get into Long Fist...that or Jeet Kune Do. If he brings up Savat, I will mock him for the rest of my years. We also reminisced on Gallad's use of Korean Muay Tai. (That, and when Ryan used to chased me, screaming "Elbows and knees, elbows and KNEES!")

I am glad everyone liked my recent drawing. ^^ Thanks for your comments, friends and beyond. I must still apoloigize how I should have better art skill...then again, that WAS only a chibi drawing. Should I post more artwork? Hmm.

Lar informed me of a 39-year old female DJ coming to town in the summer that spins synthpop. Synthpop...? In ackbasswards KENTUCKTY?! Hell fricking yessir, dude. I am SO eager to go see her spin live. I can't wait for it!

And since everyone else is doing this, I demand that you fill it out. Go on, expand my limitless ego!....Not like I really have one...!...anyway...! Anyways, Nike!

And now back to working on the poetry thing for creative writing...with only the polyphonic thrusting and thumping of the bass against my ears, encased in personal shrouds of sound. Wait, that was a bit graphic.

In other news, mein furliens, it's raining, my shoes are soaked, and Panda is a great person. I am so glad to have reestablished contact with her. Now if she'd only let my drive her truck around town, while yelling mine and Lar's old high school battle-cry "KIIIIIWIIIII!" out the window. XD

In other other news, I feel sorta out of place at the moment. I don't really seem to fit in to too many spots, friend-wise, family-wise, all that. Kentucky's trying to tell me something...could it be that I shouldn't have moved here in the first place? Could it be the weather? Whatever it is...my socks are wet, and that has everlasting psychological and tramatical effects on my feet. I practically stepped in a LAKE today. No kidding.

Now be good kids, and bring an umbrella with you today. The sky's leaking again.








As time flies by, Mary-Poppins-Style...

Following this format....
"Pick 10 people at random, and leave them messages. But don't say who the messages are to, even if they ask!"


1. Okay, you, things are already starting to look up. You've done a fine job in overcoming certain things. Keep up the streak, huh? I hope that one day you find some direction in your life. Some real, steadfast direction. Maybe then you will not be so emotional and hurt and sad all the time. Take it easy on the heavy thought. I worry for you, and you have always been a dear friend to me.

2. Don't dote too hardly on these things. It is all apart of growing up, and I know it hurts. But boys come and go, and boys will be boys, and boys do stuff, and a whole bunch of guiding talk about boys that suck. The point is you overcome these things and move on. In the meantime, concentrate on something to take your mind off of them. You are a sweet kid, and I am very grateful for your kindness. Keep up the creativity.

3. Kid, you've made some...interesting decisions in the past few months. Personally, I hope and pray that you aren't going to regret the paths you've chosen recently. Try to think more of others rather than yourself sometimes, I don't care what your relatives say about "look after number one" and shit. Take care of yourself.

4. You're a jackass and you know it. XD Don't overwork yourself. You will teach me the ways of the fantastic writing skills sometime. One of these days, I am going to sit and talk to you over tea, and find out why you are so moody. Until then, stay up, playaaaa'...

5. What a weird turn of events. Times are gonna get weird for you, man. You, being the way you are though, are going to come out smelling like roses I bet. Or maple syrup...or...deoderant spray, whatever the smells you like are. So hope for the best, make the right decisions. Don't worry about what the masses say. And keep being a dude.

6. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about you, since I haven't even met you in real life yet. ^^; You are quite the intelligent guy, though, and always fun to leave comments with. Contact me sometime on Yahoo or something!

7. WE MISS JUUUUU. Come back and visit just once, everyone misses you so much. I hope where you are now is not too much of a drain on your creativity and all that. Keep smiling all the time, it makes things better. Don't kill your little sister. Do good in school. Eat lots of peaches. Amd watch out for high school preps that want to make you into a blond zombie. (I think someone's planning to stuff you in their pocket next time you come back...o.O}

8. Alright, you may not say much about yourself, but you come off as doing just fine anyway, especially on the personal happiness part. But things may start getting a little strange for you, considering your best friend is...well...he's hanging in there, we'll just put it that way. I know what it feels like to have someone you had long-term plans with just kinda change 'em around and all. Hopefully things will work out, though. I only wish I could be a better, worthier, and more interesting person for you.

9. Channel your anger into something a little less scalding sometimes, your temper burns people! Aside from that, hang in there. Things will get better soon. The bullshit ghost will leave you alone someday, I promise. Just meditate, drink tea, burn candles, something!

10. College seems to be alright for you, huh? Balance work and school continously, and you will be just fine. Take time out to relax, and try not to worry about relationship problems too much. That alone will drag you down. We DO need to get together sometime, though! The Mafia hasn't broken up, it's just got a new name. ^^


Those are sorta obvious, so I hope I don't leave anyone guessing. ^^; Rather obvious is more like it.









And the other's knockin' you out, bustah'.
