baseball game

went to Navigators, uh, Defenders, uh, Connecticut Tigers baseball game tonight. went with Mom, Brother Two of my three sets of Aunt's and Uncle's two little cousins and a younger Cousin who is basically my age.

new cousin ID idea going to refer to them as the oldest being #1 and youngest(currently) as #7 so i was with cousins 1-3.

saw Mandachan working hard and said hello, also ran into Erin from the fencing team. I ate a ton of junk food and had a great time. also little cousin 3 was hilarious when he hung out with the new mascot. pictures may come latter but no guarantee because I'm going camping in Main in 4 days so things are going to get hectic very shortly and pictures take forever to load of my camera.

Cool quote

I found this quote in between two chapters of a popular manga called bleach (may or may not have heard of it)

Unless I Grip The Sword,
I Cannot Protect You.
While Gripping The Sword,
I Cannot Embrace You.

I just thought this was really cool and given the overall theme of this blog it fit really well so I could not resist adding it.

Day with my Aunt, Uncle, & Cousins

They are basically the RedSox family. My Mom has this once a year thing with her college room mates were they get together for a day and spend a night in a hotel. Weird but to each their own right?

So it was a pretty cool day went swimming, watched little cousins baseball game they lost but both my cousins got hits and the older off the two got a triple was fun to watch.

Then we went to see Toy Story 3 in 3D. It was a great movie. Lots of fun, though one of my little cousins actually cried around the ending. Won't give it away since i don't want to wright a spoiler review. Anyway it was really good, not at all what you would expect from the third movie of anything. =) I just wish the army guys had more scenes they had a total of maybe forty seconds on screen what a waste. =(

Summer day 3

Have read, played video games, watched tv and movies. Guess I'm gonna start cleaning my room now. No real drive to work but also no interest in goofing off for much longer without actually doing something first.

FIRST POST OF SUMMER!!

Coming to you from my high school. oh the irony. I get extra time on quizzes and tests because I'm ADD. The extra time is really helpful and I would hate to imagine taking a test without it but sometimes it has negative effects as well. Like today I stayed after and spent another hour on my Precalc final, mostly trying to figure out how to do about 7 problems that had me scratching my head.

I eventually remembered how to do most of them and only left 3 questions blank. I feel confident about most of my answers so I should be good but, today being a half day their are no late buses so I am stuck waiting for my Mom to finish, or at least take a break from grading tests so that I can get out of hear. Great start to Summer? No. What I expected to happen? Yes.

all that aside though YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY SUMMER!!!!! No more hunching over desks to right down answers i don't care about! goodbye homework, hello free time! I'm going to clean out my room so that it actually looks good again! It's time to wipe the dust of my fencing gear and get back into shape! Now I'll actually be able to get the lawn looking respectable again! Above all else I'll finally be able to get a decent nights sleep again! ahh =)alright later alligators!

I need to shave

Ha ha guess that is kind of a weird title for a post huh?

Oh well see first i got up at like 6:30 this morning oh wait today was a Saturday, WTF was i doing getting up at 6:30 on a Saturday?! The answer? ACT testing. The close relative of the SAT's. Anyway i think i did pretty good on the ACT test this morning but i basically used the essay portion to complain about how crappy the essay question was, it still came out as a decent essay so it should be alright.

How does all that connect to the title i did not have time to shave before i left that's how. So then i finish the test go home leave for little brothers lacrosse tournament again no time to shave. So i walked around all day with this stupid blondish stubble on my face I'm a red head so why are my eyebrows and stubble a pale blondish color? Beets the hell out of me.

Um also i loved watching my brother and his team they played 4, 20 min games today, they won them all. Their match against NFA got um, lets just say it was the most violent of their season. My brother who is like 5' 8", 5' 9". Got intentionally tripped by someone who is actually unbelievably taller than he is. First for everything i guess. So the refs missed the fact that my brother got tripped and my brothers stick wasn't long enough to hit the guy back from on the ground, so my brother chucked it at him. =) Absolutely priceless. =) Also at the very end of the game two other kids almost got into a fight as well. It was a pretty intense for middle schoolers.

yawn

i took a nap after school today probably one of the best decisions i have made all semester. =)

also i have a new theory i call it the telomarketer theory.

the telomarcetor theory states that if i am the only person home, and i am playing Xbox live, the phone will ring at least 3 times. these calls can be spread out over as much as 30 min or they can all come within 2 min of one another. 9 out of 10 of these calls are made by telamarketers. the rest are family members.

the telemarketer theory also states that once i get off the Xbox the phone will not ring again for at least half an hour.

why does the telephone hate me!?

light at the end of the tunnel

OK first my schedule mess worked out much better than i had imagined so yay! =)

in metals i have almost finished my last project which i will hopefully be posting a picture of later on. =)

physics final is tomorrow, Friday and I'm not sure what to expect but i rock at physics so no worries right! =)

CAPT test on Saturday "JOY",

Dinky metals final on Monday,

then finish off with finals in Precalc and English on Tuesday, then I'm home free! =)

also i scored really high on being neurotic on a personality test thing, as in more neurotic than 99.3% of the people who took it. =( I'm not surprised to find that I'm more neurotic than most people, but i never thought i was THAT bad. so from now on i am going to try and be as positive as i am when fencing all the time =) today was day one of my attempt and i had a better day than usual so. =)

Next Years Schedule

kind of exploded in my face actually. thought i needed one class when i really needed another different levels of Calc are all messing with my schedule all amounts to lots of confusing conversations with guidance counselor that get me almost nowhere. not to mention i still need to talk to my guidance counselor to tell her that i need to switch into a different class in the first place. all very annoying.

blah

Philosophy: 6

It is my opinion that no one can tell you the meaning of life. The meaning of life is something that each of us must interpret for ourselves.

My interpretation is that it is the duty of the present generation to produce the best environment possible, for the next generation, and to produce the best next generation possible.

That is my interpretation. Please do not take that last part in a biological context because that is not what I meant.

I'll reed anything good

over the last few days i have spent no clue how many hours of free time on Onemanga.com. I'm not a manga nut or anything but lately:

i haven't felt like playing video games that much. no fencing possibilities until my brothers lacrosse season ends. nothing worth watching on TV. haven't found any good book series that i haven't already read or run across any new books in a series i like.

so i have worked my way through like 4 series at one manga.com most of those only have like forty chapters though so it's not as much as it sounds like. thing is i will read anything if i like the story and with all the different series they have it's pretty much impossible for a bookworm like me to limit myself to justs one or two. plus i love not having to read entire paragraphs describing landscape and what each character looks like and stuff.

overly, imaginative, bookworm + free, violent, funny, awesome comic book things = one happy camper =)

well uh.....

contrary to my last pessimistic post from earlier it was a pretty cool day all things considered.

we stayed to halftime at which point our, uh, my, uh.... whatever. our school was winning 14 to zip. so we (myself, my Mom, My Brother, and two of my brothers friends)left, ate pizza, and went home.

thunderstorm never came, and it was really very pleasant out so this is one of those days were i went to all the trouble of being a pessimist for nothing

NO HOMEWORK!

but i have nothing to do. see instead of going home today i decided to stay after school so i could watch the states lacrosse game tonight which is supposed to start around 4.

problems: nothing to read, nothing to do, its really freaking hot in my Mom's classroom, the game is not until 4, it may be postponed anyway due to thunderstorms passing through the area, and if it starts raining during the game i am going to get soaked, also I'm feeling kinda hungry

so this may turn out to be several hours waisted, our a super awesome game that is worth every wasted min. either way I'll tell you later because right now i need to come up with something to do.

Reading

if you can easily put a book down at night and say it will be there in the morning and you are not totally exhausted then chances are, you are reading something boring or at least something that could be much more interesting.

when you are up till one o'clock because you have lost track of time or just can't force yourself to stop reading then you know you've found a story worth reading.

my problem is that i only read stuff worth reading.
