Lately ive been hella sick so i didnt post for a while......

I had to go to the Emergency Room cuz i had a temperature of like 104. When i got there, there was like 4 Punjab dudes on cell phones sitting under the no cell phone sign. It took forever for them to call me in and i was getting irritated. When they finally did, they just took my temperature and pulse and sent me back. Apparently they had to make sure i was alive before letting me in. No people without pulses are gettin in here, no way.... the morgue is down that hall........

Ive been noticing all the differences between home and school now. For example, at home when u see graffitti, its more than likely for a gang; at school its for a Fraternity....at school bad drivers are presumably drunk, at home theyre just foreign... signs on the side of the road at home are advertisements for new housing developments, but at school theyre for events or student elections. Anyone catch themselves looking for the conveyor belt when leaving a restaurant yet?

Anyone ever notice Jurassic Park and Jaws are basically the same movie with different animals?

So i went to Chabot to take an English placement test so i can take a summer english class. Chabot isn't even a college man, its a high school i swear. What kinda college can you walk across in 2 minutes? What kinda college only charges a dollar for parking? But anyway that test was wayyy easy, it was pretty much a waste of time.. why couldnt they accept my placement test scores from Sac State? OH well i didnt take them at Sac anyway =). Thank god for a 1290 SAT score... woohoo.

Party at Stanford 2nite yay. If i aint drivin, im gettin f'd up. Hopefully someone can pick me up so i dont even have to drive home from their house. Yay for parties and alcohol.

14 hours later....

Back from the party at Stanford, its was coo.... damn that asian chick in the black dress with the big ass been in my mind for a while haha... yay for mutual drunken ass grabbing

I hit the beer bong for the first time tonight, gotta love downing a beer in 3 seconds..... but that was the biggest burp i ever needed to get out

I drank a Corona, a keg beer, a shot of 151, and a few more beers i cant really remember haha

Alcohol Tolerance Check: still high =)

drove home a lil' faded again.. i really gotta stop being the driver man. But dont trip cuz i tested myself with the guardian angel strip and it said i was coo to drive hehe.. but it was still scary as fuck. well now im bored as fuck, ive been up since 8 am damn.... and im not even sleepy yet.. yet

So Im chillin in my room tonight listening to music and my mom rushes in and asks me if i heard the water running today. I politely say no as she continues to tell me about how my dad left the water on all day. Then she says i should listen for running water and investigate it. I told her that her and my dad should investigate turning the knob off when they leave the faucets.

Of course that brought on a huge lecture about how much the water bill will be if people leave the water on. I asked her how I was involved; I had not left the water on, I didnt hear the water on and leave it on, I dont pay the bill.

So my mom leaves and somehow translates the conversation in parent language to my dad and he comes in fuming..."If you hear the water on, turn if off!" Something about that sentence and the context just didnt pan out well in my mind. Why is he telling me things that are common knowledge? I yelled back "If youre out of breath, then Breathe!"

......Parents just dont understand.....

Have u ever been at home outside and thought "damn im glad i didnt lock the door" only to realize that it isnt a dorm room and you couldnt have locked it wihtout your key anyway?

Whats with headlines like "Scientist may have found Nefertiti mummy"? It's not news until he does dammit. I may have a million dollar bill in my wallet next time i look, but i dont waste web space with speculation like that..... Oh wait....

I know Ive played too much counter-strike lately because everytime i turn a corner or pass a big crate, i look to see if someone is hiding there waiting to shoot me....


Random thoughts from college students like me:

How come the only thing you can ever find to stir mixed drinks in your dorm room is a pen? You might as well tell some random kid at the party to stick his hand in your drink and stir for you, considering you probably found the pen on the floor after class or dropped it on the floor yourself…numerous times. Just another reason why college kids get sick all the time I’m sure.

Why is it that there is always one hanger on the floor in my dorm room that will get stepped on and mangled for two weeks before someone picks it up and throws it away?

Everyone without a printer has at least one "printer pal." This is the person who you can always count on to borrow some paper and print out your homework. Everyone WITH a printer has at least one "printing asshole." These are the people who always drain your fucking paper supply every time they feel like printing something out.

This is pretty random, but you know those sanitary toilet-seat covers in public restrooms? Why the hell is do you have to punch out the centers of them? Were they just too lazy to finish cutting them out?! And then, are you supposed to tear it out completely or so that it’s still attached to the back? What the fuck!

Here is a true story: One of my friends at another school wrote calculus formulas on his hand the night before the exam to help him study. Only problem was, he used a permanent-type marker so apparently they wouldn’t wash off completely before the exam. He got so nervous about getting busted for cheating that he went early to the exam and explained to the professor why he would be wearing a glove for the duration of the exam. And there’s just about nothing more retarded than wearing one fucking glove during an exam. Except if he had only had a mitten and then kept dropping his pencil because he couldn’t hold it right.

^ When i read that one, i was like wtf, how could he write stuff on his writing hand... guess that guy didnt think about it too much haha
Today i taped the NBA finals game 3 for my friend Luis. That was the first time i actually watched the WHOLE game on tv. At halftime i had to make a run to the store and i got back exactly when the 2nd half was starting. I wonder if they did any research on how long it takes the average single white male to go to safeway and back. If they did, then someone deserves a promotion!

Stopping the recording for commercials can be annoying, especially when the record button doesnt work on the remote and U have to get up to get it record.

I must've seen 43 Chevy commercials. Its amazing how commercialized tv is getting. They have rotating billboards by the scorers table. In soccer they have ads on the jerseys for almost all pro teams. Why not just make the basketball a white ball with a Nike swoosh? Or make the court a big Budweiser logo. How about a backboard that is a huge movie poster with a square on it. Or why dont they go a step further and just rename the players? "Ford drives to the whole and lays it up over Wal-mart, wow Ford sure is lighting it up tonight"

The score at halftime was the lowest in NBA finals history. One question came to my mind, Why am I not in the NBA? Where do i try out?

Damn im tired...... Whats up with my parents waiting up for me? Im not gonna get murdered or anything, Im ok! My dad called me at 130 on a Saturday night to tell me to come home. I was like, wait did i not turn 19 last year? Did i not spend all year at college doing God knows what until God knows when? GRrr.

So last night i met this chick named Bernadette at Hypernet. She was really cute and i know she thinks i am too.... she told me ;-). She gave me her sn, but she's always on away... I really hate away messages sometimes. Its harder to put up an away message than to just sign off. I mean i can understand if u have something important to tell someone while you go take a shit, but damn being gone for 3 hours with "BRB" up is just annoying!

But shes really really cute... She goes to CSUH and shes studying to be a nurse. Helloooooo Nurse! =P Oh dear i hope she doesnt read this! Oh well whatever... Imma have to get her number and ask her out one time at least. D'oh! no money! oh well Diosdado is gonna talk to his boss to get me a job catering Weddings and stuff over the summer. He says its hella cool, and that they meet hella fine girls at the weddings. Nuthin better than meeting single girls at weddings that are jealous of their friend getting married.... yes.....

Damn i havent played soccer in like a week and a half, when is soccer camp gonna start!

Damn ive had so much bad news in the past week or two. My truck's engine is as good as gone. Its gonna cost a shitload to replace =( and to raise the cash, my parents might sell the Caddy, or they might just donate the truck for a writeoff... Boo to that man! Thats my truck! My very first car!

Friendster is soooooo cool! Ive talked to like at least 5 friends from High school i hadnt talked to since Graduation. Its nice to be able to catch up with old friends like that... Well im out

Hella weird day... Went to tapioca express and felt weird around all the asians. Visited Chelle at her independent studies school. And to think that all this time i assumed that independant studies was when u didnt go to school.... Weird. Damn she looked good though. We went and got her friend Char in Fremont and drove around a lot and i drove the v8 ford truck (i still swear mine is faster) and we went to Hypernet for like 20 minutes cuz i had some extra time on my account so we traded off and Chelle was sittin on my lap and i was grabbin her ass haha... I think imma go back there tonight, after Real World Paris debut that is.....

Damn what a boring ass day.... all i did was wake up, go get job apps, come home, watch 'A Beautiful Mind' and eat dinner with some mormon missionaries and thats it... well its still early, maybe ill do something later. Better yet, maybe Ill do someone later =P

What the F emily.....

"YES YOU ARE SMALL MINDED!!!! But before you get out there on the slope there is a whole science to your equipment. You can't just expect to go out there with any old piece of wood and win. Edges are amazingly important. they have to sharpened to perfection so that when you move your knees the wood will move to. Everything has to be the right shape for your comfort and you have to wax it just right so eeverything will move."

^ Hey that's called carpentry.... LOL

So last night i went to the Chevron to put gas in my truck and this guy asks me for a quarter. It was a little odd because he wasnt a beggar. I knew this because he was in a truck nicer than mine. Funny that i felt less apprehensive giving money to another motorist than a person living in poverty.. Weird. Turns out he just needed an extra quarter to buy a Black n Meezy. I know this because i gave him a dollar and he brought me .75 cents back. Maybe beggars should look into this.... Give someone 75 cents for a dollar that is. It just seemed like less of a committment because i got something back... Ok so yeah i really just did turn writing about giving someone a quarter into 5 lines. Weird how that works. Anybody got a story they need turning into a novel?

Oh yeah we lost to the 13th seed in the playoffs for Davis.... bummer. Oh but on the bright side i dribbled the whole team off the kickoff and scored again. I should really try that more often, Im 2 for 2! =)
