| 11:15 am | update on the job front and other things. First of all, the job. I have an internship with a company called Team Connections. They sell sports equipment, primarily to school teams, but also to individuals. I don't know what my title is, but my role is writing code documentation for the new system that is being built. It would have been nice if the builder of the system had done all this or at least put comments in his code, but I don't think he had the time. I would prefer to be writing code rather than deciphering it, but, unfortunately, documentation is in the job description of a programmer. After this internship is over, I think I'm going to try to find a job that deals with the hardware side of computers. I think pulling computers apart and putting them back together will be far more interesting than documenting code. Next topic is the woman I spoke of in my last entry. I really don't know why I'm doing this to myself. I think I like her even more now than I did a few weeks ago. This is not good for my mental health which leads to less sleep which causes problems in my physical health. Apparently I like to torture myself by falling for women I'll never be with. I went bowling with this woman last Thursday night(call it a date if you like, I don't care). It was a lot of fun, but I thrashed my arm pretty good. It was sore all over for days. I guess that's what I get for not going easy on her. Should have let her win at least one game. She nearly beat me fair and square one game, but I pulled it out in the end and she threw a few gutter balls. Ever since that night, I have been longing to hold her in my arms(no matter how much they hurt), but I don't think that would be appropriate due to the complications I mentioned in my last entry. If is funny that for pretty much every woman I had a crush on before, I often imagined having sex them, but for this woman, it is rather rare when I try to imagine having sex with her, and when I do, it is not for very long. I really want to see her again, but I know when I do, it will only cause me more heart ache. Ah well, tis life. Now for the other things. Nothing new on World of Warcraft...still has my soul. I just bought the Playstation 3 Metal Gear Solid bundle for some reason. Guess I just felt it was time to splurge a bit again. At least I get paid next week. Wish I knew how much or at least what it's going to be based on. If I'm lucky, it will be hourly, because I haven't been doing a whole lot of work. Hell, I'm writing this entry while at work. It's a good thing they don't keep a very close eye on me. I think that's all for now. I'll try to update my journal again when I figure out more to talk about and remember to write it in my journal. |

| 1:32 am | has it been a year already? It's actually been a year and 20 days, but who's counting? I guess I should give an update on what I've been doing over the last year. First of all, World of Warcraft stole my soul last July. I play it at least a couple of hours a day, even longer on those days I didn't have homework or something to study for. I have a level 70 alliance hunter and a level 70 horde rogue. The rogue is horde because blood elves are hot and leather armor is tight. I have several other characters, but they are rather low level and only one is over 20. The second big thing that has happened in my life since last year is the fact that I think I have gotten over the crush I had for the woman wrote the love letter to. I don't think I'm completely over her, but I think I can finally pursue other women. However, that does not mean I'm better off than I was. Actually, I think I'm worse off with the woman I have fallen for over the last few months. I had known her for a couple of years before the fateful night that I finally felt a real connection with her, but I never really got to know her before then, and I really regret that now. I might have been able to save her from a bad relationship experience that has made her afraid to enter into another relationship. No real point in dwelling on things that could have been. It's important to learn from past mistakes, but not to obsess over them. Anyway, this woman is such a wonder ful person. She's nice, funny, smart, and very beautiful. She's also very quirky, but it's not like I'm exactly normal myself. I have a hard time not smiling or laughing while I'm around her. As I said before, she is afraid to enter into a relationship at the moment, and the situation is even more complicated, but that would take too long to go into, nor is it something I particularly like to think about. So, yeah, I've fallen for another woman, but at least this one is single. The last big thing that has happened to me is that I graduated form North Carolina University in Greensboro. I graduated with a BS degree in Information Systems. It's called a BS degree because that's basically all we do. Now all I have to do is find a job, which I have been rather unsuccessful in, but the summer has just started, and I plan to be out of my father's house by then with a decent job to pay for an apartment. I do plan to get my masters degree, but I'm hoping to find a company to pay for it. Anyway, I'm tired and need sleep. I wish this site had spelling and grammar check. |

| 8:39 pm | blah di blah blah I don't know how long it has been since I last updated my journal, and I don't care. I am currently working in the Super Lab in the library, and I'm bored out of my mind. I still have about another 3 hours here as well, and I have nothing to do. I don't even have school work to do. Well, I could be studying for my last exam, but that's not until Wednesday and I'm too much of a procrastinator to do it this early. The last three weeks have been really shitty for me. The first of those weeks was spent working on and stressing over three group projects that just so happened to be due on the Monday of the following week, not to mention a test on that day. I'm pretty sure my teachers had been conspiring against me; however, everything got done and the projects turned out fairly well. Also during that week, my computer decided to fuck up on me. Windows crashed hardcore, and I haven't been able to get my hands on an XP disc so that I can fix it. Damn technology! The second week wasn't so bad. The projects got turned in on time, and I recieved a decent grade on them. As for the test, not so much. I had made a C on it for the first time in any of my economics classes. Hopefully, it will be replace by the final and I can make an A in the class. I had a presentation about one of the projects that week on Wednesday, and my team mates didn't seem to think that I was capable of helping during the presention. It wouldn't have been so bad if my grade wasn't also influenced by the amount of speaking I did during the presentaion. I also had a paper due and a presentation on that paper in Japanese on Thursday, but that wasn't very difficult. All I had to do for the paper was revise my rough draft and the presentation was actually about something that I like. That friday night was especially nice, since it was my first date with Carrie and we went bowling with some of my friends. After bowling, we drove around the Friendly shopping center to see if any interesting places were open;however, there weren't so we went back to the campus. Once back on campus, we walked and talked for a while. Then we got on the swings(which are rather painful to sit in) and talked for a while longer. At about a quarter to midnight I walked her back to her car, we hugged and she went home. This week as been rather difficult, since I had four of my five exams along with two presentations. The presentation on Monday sucked due to technical problems, but the exam was really easy and I finished it in about 15 minutes. Wednesday night was a little rough since the library started extended hours and I had to work until 2 in the morning. Thursday wasn't too bad since the exam wasn't extremely hard; however, I spent most of the night studying for two exams and preparing for a presetation. So, yeah, most of yesturday sucked ass. After the first exam, I felt like somebody had shoved an umbrella up my ass and opened it. The presentation went quite well, surprisingly, and the second exam went really well to since I finished it in less than an hour. Last night was good. I went out with Carrie again; although, I would have prefered to have done something besides bowling, but it was still a lot of fun. With it being just the two of us, we managed 4 games in the hour we payed for. After that, we went back to my dorm room, and watched a movie. Once the movie ended, I walked her back to her car, we hugged(this time a little more passionately), and she went home. So that leads me back to my current setting. I know that was a lot for me to talk about and a lot for you to read, but it has been quite some time since I updated. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! Current Mood: bored |

| 10:41 pm | Spring Break! Whoooo! I probably should have said I got a job earlier, but I forgot. Anyway, I have been employed as a lab consultant for UNCG IT services. It's a very convenient job, since it's on campus and I can do while on the job. It's finally spring break after a grueling week of midterm exams and an ass-load of other things. Unfortunately, I can't go home till Sunday because I have to work tomorrow from 2 to 5. I could go home tomorrow, but I don't feel like it. I may go home tomorrow anyway to do laundry, or I migh see what kind of a buzz I can get off of a couple of Mike's Hard Lemonades unless somebody wants to come over and hang out with me and help me drink my last two Mike's Hard Lemonades. That's if she gets this message in time and she'll be on campus. My plans for spring break are actually pretty lame. I'm pretty much just going to go home and do nothing. I'll probably come back saturday or sunday depending whether or not I get to work that weekend. That's pretty much all I have to say. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |

| 9:41 am | Bowling is a lot more fun that I remember Last night was the first time I had been bowling in about ten years, and it was awesome. I just wish more of the people I had invited would have shown up. Anyway, I'll tell you who all was there. There were my friends Brittany, Bill, Mark, and Mindy, and of course myself. Now for the highlights of the evening. The first highlight was me getting lost on my way to the bowling alley. Apparently I had turned the wrong way on to south Holden Road. Due to that, it took me twenty minutes to get to a place that should't have taken me more than five minutes to get to. Stupid google maps. At least I wasn't the only one late. Brittany didn't get there until at least 10:30, but that wasn't due to getting lost. Once I got there at about ten after ten, we were finally able to start bowling, and having fun. My first frame was horrible. With first ball, I rolled a gutter ball, and with the second ball, I hit but one pin. Everybody else hit at least half a dozen pins. After that though, I started playing much better, and in the end, I was the only one to break a hundred. I guess I should tell you about the abnoxious DJ(or whaterever he was) that was wandering around and messing with people that were bowling. One time he came up to me when I was getting ready to start my frame. To my dismay I only hit one pin with the first ball while he was there and of course he made fun of me for it. After my second ball he left me alone. It was most fortunate that nobody told him my birthday had been the day before. The guy came back later, but it was Brittany's turn to be picked on. Total embarrassment ensued, especially after she failed to complete the guy's challenge, because she had to sing happy birthday to some woman who had a birthday yesturday. The guy also apparently new nothing of personal space because he would stand only a couple of inches away from you while talking to you. It was really annoying. Next, I'll tell you about the amazing bowling tricks I did. There was only two, but they were still pretty cool. The first was when my ball bounced out of the gutter and knocked over 8 pins. At first it looked like it was just going to be another gutter ball, but no, it apparently hit the side of the gutter after it went in and bounced out. It was quite interesting to see. If only I had picked up the spare off of it or it had been a strike. The next thing wasn't exactly a trick, but it was something I had never seen before. Somehow, I manage to leave only 7, 10, and 5 pin standing. That meant there were two splits in the pins, and it would be impossible for me to pick up the spare. I ended up not hitting any of the three pins, which was also a quite a feet. I wish I could say it was the alcohol, but since I only had one drink, and there wasn't enough alcohol in it to do anything, I can't. It would have been nice if you had been there Cat, but at least you had a good excuse for not being able to come. We'll to plan the next time on a night you don't have to work. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |

| 2:21 pm | Partay! I went to another party last night. That's the second one I've been to in less than two months. Woot! That's a record for me. You don't have to say it, I know I'm lame. The party was actually the birthday party of my friend Brittany, her 21st birthday party that is. It was at her parents house, and I had a little trouble getting there, but I did get there. Anyway, upon entering the house I saw that there were home movies of Brittany as a kid playing on the tv. What a great way for parents to embarass their child in front his or her friends and family. I dare not say what all was in the home movies, for if I did and Brittany was to read this(there's a link to my journal on my facebook profile), she would most likely kill me. I'll just say that they were really funny, and it was even funnier to see Brittany's expressions as she was watching them. The food at the party was really good too, but that's all I'm going to say about it since I'd rather talk about the alcohol. Yes, I said alcohol. Even though this was at her parents house, her mother served each of us a alcoholic beverage, however, the one we revieved had only half the alcohol the people well over 21 recieved. It was still pretty good. It was some sort of icecream, rum, and penacolatta(I don't know how to spell it) concoction. I normally don't drink alcohol, but it was a special occassion and it was offered, so...I drank it. Don't worry, it wasn't until hours later that I drove home. I bet you all are wondering who we is, right? Well, we is Brittany, her boyfriend, mine and Brittany's friends Allison and Jake(he didn't have any alcohol), and myself. Anyway, after everybody finished eating, some people left and the rest went down into the basement so Brittany could open the rest of her presents. I, of course, did not leave at that time, since she hadn't open my present yet and I wasn't about to leave until I had to. I had gotten Brittany a miniature oboe, the instrument she plays in the band, and she seemed to like it a lot and so did everybody else. After that her boyfriend and Jake went back to playing air hockey while the rest of us talked. Once they were done, we just talked for a couple of hours. After a while, I asked if anyone wanted to play air hockey. Both Allison and Brittany want to play, so I played Brittany first and Allison would play the winner. Brittany would have totally kicked my ass, but she had to pop her rists or something, which allowed me to score two goals. I felt bad that I had scored on here while she doing that, so I let her have a free goal. That one goal tied the score, so don't start bitching at me. Anyway, I ended up getting lucky and beating her, so I played Allison which turned out to be a lot of fun. Don't get me wrong, the game with Brittany was really fun too, but when I played her, we tried to keep puck on the table by not hitting very hard so the game took forever. In the game with Allison, we decided not to hold back so much and the game became much more fast paced and a little bit more fun that the previous game with Brittany. She ended up beating me 10-9. One freakin' point! By the time we were done playing air hockey, the only people left were us and Brittany's parents, so it was about time to get going, but before that, we all sat down in the living room watching the late show and talking some more. We left a little after midnight, and I arrived home close to 12:30. Promptly after getting home, I changed my clothes and went to bed. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |

| 2:38 pm | I hate Clean Access so much For those of you that don't know, Clean Access is program that UNCG started using so students could get on the internet without having to register their computers. The problem is that there are a lot of requirements a student has to meet in order to get on the internet. One such requirement is having all the necessary updates for windows, and this brings me to my problem. I just recently got a "new" computer, and I have downloaded every update I can find for windows xp, yet Clean Access still says I'm missing some updates. I so want to shoot the creator of Clean Access. I'm only able to get on the internet right now becuase I'm using my old computer. Unfortunately it's a major pieace of shit. I guess that's pretty much it for my ranting. Anyway, I'm sitting in my dorm room bored out of my mind. I actually returned yeturday so that I might beat the crowd. Unfortunately, the crowd had the same idea. At least it wasn't as difficult to move in as it was the before last semester, but it was probably due to the fact that I didn't have to lug a refrigerator to my room. Classes start tomarrow, and I'm really not looking forward to it. I don't have any of my books yet except for my Japanese books since we're using the same ones as we did last semester. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! Current Mood: bored |

| 2:44 pm | Letter to my secret love even though she'll probably never read it. I know this is very sad and pathetic, but I need to get it off my chest, and this is the best way I could think of. I will not be using her actual name any where in the letter. If she were to find out about my feeling, it could make things very awkward for the both of us. Well, here it goes: Dear NyJoy, This may come as a bit of a surprise, I'm not sure how much I have given away, but I am in love with you. It would probably be best if I don't tell you how long I have felt that way, because I'm not sure my self, but it has been a while. I think I first realized it when I was reminiscing about something funny that had happened while I was walking with you one day, and thinking to myself, "She's very evil, but I still love her." Up until then, I wasn't sure what my feelings toward you were. You are one of the easiest people to talk to that I know, and when I am talking to you, I am able to come up with things to talk about most of the time. I actually tell you more than I do anybody else, even though some of those things I should have kept to myself. It's good that we've never had the conversation that I dreamed we had this morning. You are also very kind to me and everybody else. You make me laugh and smile during the entire time I am around you, and whenever I'm having a bad day, if I get to talk to you, it suddenly becomes a great day. I know you probably won't ever feel the same way about me, and there's a good chance that you won't ever even read this letter, but I had let my feelings be known. I love you. Wade |

| 11:30 am | Christmas Shin-dig I went to the best party ever last night. Well, it was the best one I have ever been to anyway. The food we had was freakin' awesome. There was ham, corn, peas, baked macaroni and cheese, crosants, chicken, and toquitos. For dessert, we had sugar pie and peach cobbler. I know not all of that isn't exactly Christmas food, but it was all really good, and was prepared by three beautiful women. Why am I talking about the food? Because I can. After the food, we played a game of dirty santa with the presents we were suppose to bring. I brought a toy called the cat-a-pult. It turned out to be rather popular. There weren't any perverted presents, but there was a novelty item called Suddenly Stud, and somehow I ended up with it. I should have kept the cookie jar. Once the game was over and every body got tired of playing with their presents, we sat around talking and listening to one guy play the guitar and sing. Well, that guy wasn't the only one singer, several of the other people sung as well. I wasn't one of those people, because having to hear me sing is a fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy, let alone my friends. I do wish, though, that I could play an instrument, preferably the guitar or piano. I hope to learn to play one of the two eventually. People started leaving the party some time between 10 and 10:30. As for me, I didn't leave until about midnight, because I didn't want to come back to my dorm unless I had to, and I really enjoy talking to one of the residents of the appartment where the party was. I'll probably be talking more about her later. I guess that's pretty much it. I went back to my dorm room, and had the worst time getting to sleep. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |

| 11:14 pm | I don't care. Last night was awesome! Why am I just now writing about? Well, I just finally got around to doing it. Anyway, I went to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show in a dorm on campus. I was expecting the actors to actually be saying lines and singing themselves, but they just mimed along to the movie. There was also some voice over type stuff from the chorus-like group that was really funny and made the movie much funnier. During the dinner scene, I got a lap dance from one of those chorus members. She was very beautiful and fairly scantily clad. It was great! That's all I'm going to say about last night, since I'm somewhat busy at the moment with a draft tournament on Magic the Gathering Online, and I'm in the final round. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |

| 3:23 pm | Yesturday's Magic Tournament Has it really been nineteen days since my last journal entry? I guess time flies when you have nothing to talk about. Anyway, I went to a major magic: the gathering tournament yesturday. I started out pretty well winning my first two matches, but then I had two really bad match ups in the next two rounds and became 2-2. Fotunately, I still had a chance to win something by winning the next round, but I lost the two rounds after that and dropped from the tournament. There's 25 bucks down the drain. After dropping from the tournament, I entered a side draft tournament and kicked some ass. I drafted an awesome black/green thalid deck. I won the first match pretty easily since my opponent had some mana problems, but I think I could have won anyway. The second match was a little more difficult since my opponent was playing as mono colored deck and didn't have any mana problems. I lost the first game of the match due to a flyer that was gaining him life with each attack; however, I managed to win the next two games after I sideboarded in a few cards that I was actually able to draw. I decide to do an intentional draw with the guy I was suppose to play in the last round, because I was about 10:30 and I was tired and hungry. That was a 14 bucks well spent and the cards I won compensated for both tournaments. We left about a half an hour to an hour later. Fotunately, we were able to get some food on the way back to Eden since that was where everbody met to leave for the tournament and my car was still outside the MacDonalds. It was late when we got back. I'm not sure how late since the clocks were set back an hour last at midnight. I then went home, took a shower, put my clothes in the washer and went to bed. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! Current Mood: content |

| 11:13 pm | finished Yay! I finished one of the papers I have due. It was a tad bit short than it was suppose to be, but I'm a major procrastinator I wasn't able to put as much effort into it as I should have. Oh, well. Hopefully, my grade won't be too bad. It appears that my roommate won't be back till tomarrow, so I get a night of peace and quiet in my dorm room. Anyone is welcome to come over as long as you know where my dorm room is, and if you come over for any reason other than to kill me, please wake me up by knocking on my window and calling out my name. If you come to kill me, please do it quickly and quietly. Good night all. Current Mood: accomplished |
| 7:57 am | ............. It's the last day of fall break, and in about 4 hours, I will be heading back to UNCG. Breaks from school don't last nearly long enough, and this one was shorter than usual, because the bastards that determine how long or short our vacations are, have been shortening fall break over the past couple of years. My first year at UNCG, fall break was a whole week, and in my second year, it was shortened to three days. Now it's only two days. WTF! I bet next year, they're going to shorten it to one day and call it Columbus Day break. Bastards! At least I'll finally be able to get some homework done once I go out to UNCG. I have two papers due, one tomarrow and the other thursday, and I haven't been able to start on either. It's not that I've been busy, there's just always something else I want to do. That's true for my dorm room as well, but it just seems easier to do homework out there. Blah, blah blah blah....blah. That's what I have to say. Current Mood: bored |

| 9:24 pm | Nine days It has been approximately nine days since my last journal entry. I was rather sad last week until Saturday on which I got to go the the prerelease tournament for the new Magic: the Gathering set, Timespiral. I didn't do as well as I had hoped, but I still won a few packs. I have been quite content since then and thought about writing in my journal, but I forgot about doing so before I could get around to it. However, tonight, I am very happy. I was finally able to talk to and see Neko-san again after two weeks of not being able to do either since she is never in her dorm room, or at least never on her computer. But, since Neko-san was at the SF3 meeting tonight, I was extremely happy for the first time in two weeks. Tonight's meeting was particularly fun because of the paper ball fight just before the meeting, however, I was not able to get a paper ball until after the meeting had started. So, I threw the paper ball at Neko-san after she had said something stupid. She was an easy target since she was lying in the floor wide open. I was also able to procure a couple of paper balls after the meeting and threw one at Neko-san. I don't know if she new it was me that hit her, but she probably will after she reads this. Other than the SF3 meeting, this week has been pretty uneventful. One of my classes was cancelled on monday, though, and one is canelled for tomarrow which means I get to eat lunch before 1:00 with a couple of friends of mine. That's pretty much it for this journal, and I need to do some homework anyway. P.S. Neko means cat in Japanese for all those that don't know. I forgot to explain that in my first journal entry in which I mentioned Neko-san. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! Current Mood: happy |

| 7:30 pm | I need to right in my journal more. Or, not. Nobody seems to be reading my journal any more, and I hardly ever have anything to talk about. One of the reasons I started this journal was to write down my dreams, but I hardly ever have any, and the ones I do have, I can't remember long enough to write about them. Well, my sister is now married and now I'm an uncle three times over. It was a nice wedding, and even though I am the bride's brother, I didn't have to do shit during the ceremony. Unfortunately, I did have to help set up before the ceremony and help clean up after the reception. Oh well, the food was worth it. I need a job. I think I'm going to go down to the friendly shopping center tomarrow and see if any of the stores are hiring. There's a few dozens stores down there, so at least a couple of them should be hiring, I hope. I can't think of anything else to say. Kaji! Kaji! Kaji! Everything shall burn! |
