Damn package coming in from DHL failed to deliver. They don't offer pick-up all weekend for it, and they tell me if I don't want to try again, I have to drive into Boston to pick it up on Monday. Managed to talk my dad into waiting at my house all day for it on Monday, so I don't have it left outside.

EDIT - Awesome DHL guy decided to come back and try again. Win!

Woke up this morning with a fairly bad headache radiating out from the back of my neck on the right side. Normally, this kind of thing gets solved by a combination of Advil, Biofreeze, a hot shower, and some coffee. So I put the Biofreeze on, take the shower, take the Advil, and pour myself some coffee. It had other plans, and turned into a full-on migraine less than 20 minutes later. I spent until a quarter past noon moaning in pain and throwing up all of the nothing that I had eaten. Also slept again for an hour and a half around 9:00 to try and make it settle down, but that didn't help either.

I didn't even finish the coffee, so I poured it into another glass and stuck it in the refrigerator, and turned the pot off. I finished it off as a cold coffee this afternoon and filled the glass back up with the non-mixed coffee that was in the pot, since there was no reason for it to go to waste. Didn't even have a proper meal until about three hours ago, although I did have some tea and a piece of toast after the last time I stopped vomiting. Also had to take another shower since I was sweating from the exertion of all of it.


I don't get migraines very often, and there's only been a couple times that I can remember that they've ever made me vomit. Surprisingly, this wasn't one of the worst I've had in terms of the pain. When I was in middle and high school (maybe even elementary, but if so it would've been like 4th or 5th), these things would wake me up in the middle of the night and I'd be in so much pain I couldn't even get out of bed to take anything, nor would it let me go back to sleep until it was over.

I had several paragraphs typed up, and then I revised it to a shortened form, but I realized that saying it simply is probably the best way.

I am angry, depressed, and irritated that when my life got harder, my best friend effectively dropped me for less complicated friends.

That's a shitty way to treat someone who has been your closest, most beloved support for the last fifteen years.

Dude!!! xD I find it weird that we both just have like such an awful day on like the exact same day! x)

Mines just the fact that I didn't go to bed until like 6:30 a.m. because of an art project that's due in about... 2 hours, and the fact that I had to work at 8:00 a.m. so I only got like... not even a hour's worth of sleep and I had to go to work in the worst possible mood :[ Not only that, but I went up to some lady and I was curious about like why she was buying Voss water and she gave me like this idea to go watch Tapp~ and saying that Arrowhead water is on the pH scale of 6.8, making it more acidic. Well... That's fine and all but if Arrowhead water was at 6.8 then Soda is probably more acidic due to the carbonation inside it but I don't see everyone dying of cancer from it... :/ Not to mention, the body is built to withstand a fair amount of pH Levels since its purpose is to both protect the body and maintain homeostasis. What I didn't like is how this woman wouldn't even accept my point of view no matter what I said to her. She basically told me that there's way more going on in the body besides water and sodium, and I pretty much told her that "Yeah, there's also Potassium, Carbon, Oxygen, and Sulfur." Then she said: "Ok, look, I don't feel like debating. All I know is that Water is the reason for causing cancer." Then she walked off.... Well.. that's nice and all but that's just fucking rude to walk off and not even hear out my side of how cancer even works. :|

Sad part is... I probably could've told her how cancer works and she'll never know :/ I just don't know what causes it, and, to be perfectly honest, anything can cause cancer but I base most of my reason on radiation due to what happened to the soldiers that suffered through serious disfiguration at the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. (Atomic bombing... No one wins...)

Anyway, I totally feel how Mkid Feels today :[

It could be a lot of things. For example, if your pulse is too high, they have to turn you away, or maybe they already had enough of your blood type. That's lame that they wouldn't tell you why though.

I decided to sell my motorcycle... Why is this a vent? Because I really don't want to let it go but the circumstances suck to even keep it. I have my own apartment right now and believe me, I love the new freedoms. I don't have a place to park it other than at my parents house's garage and driving over to get it is annoying. Plus if for some reason it starts raining, I'm out of luck. In kentucky you can really only drive it probably half the year or 2/3 at most. In florida I drove it year around even sometimes in the mid-high 40's with extra clothing.

The only good thing out of it is that MOST of it is going into a savings account for a down payment on a house. After I get my radiology license and a good job, I'm buying a house with a garage. First thing to get after that is a motorcycle again. The years without one is gonna suck though, I really like riding it. Personally I don't do tricks or anything on it, just really enjoy the wind hitting me and the overall experience.

A few years.... .... years...

I swear, cancelling a policy due to death of the name insured never gets any easier. The most recent one was only 24 and his mother called to cancel. He had a 1 year old girl.

Shit sucks, man. Shit SUCKS.

My new warteam played against the best team on DN and DGZ, we lost, but it was very close, they had one life left when we did. In that war I beat last year's Australian national champion. After losing that war, we dropped down and challenged a very mediocre team that has a 5-7 record. And... my first match, I lost. I'm so pissed, and it's a stupid little thing, but I played a 5 hour tournament before this match and I never should've played it. We were supposed to beat them flawlessly, and I lost to some shit player. Disgusting.
