Oh, happy day.

Finally, I made Chris sign up here. He's been making videos for quite a bit, don't know why he hadn't signed up before.
Anyway, things are progressing slowly, but I expected them too.
I want to show someone some clips of my video, it's driving me nuts. I don't want anyone to see it yet, but I do. I don't get it. No, you can't see it, don't ask me. Instead, I'll let you see my timeline so far.

Once I graduate, everything will be better... Just gotta make it... -
If I hadn't done well in school and failed, I wouldn't have come back. Trust me.

I'm so glad I've been busting my ass in school this year. Somehow, I have broken through the laziness that rules my life and pulled through 12 years of horror. Having this cable modem has changed my life for the better in so many ways, but made things worse in other ways.
Anyway, to keep the modem I had to make honor roll, and if I didn't, I would lose it for a whole marking period. Well, you can bet your ass I didn't take any chances with THAT. But... I don't think I'll make honor roll this final marking period... And I don't have any marking periods after that, so I guess that means I'll lose it for the whole damn summer... God, no!
Just finished my last homework assignment of grade school. It took me 8 and a half hours, so I guess it can be considered "going out with a bang." Getting 5 hours sleep over two days and not getting a shower when I woke up this morning has made me intolerable in real life... I guess I better go to sleep. -
And the peasants rejoice.

Oh yeah, the S Project is coming along nicely. I didn't even expect to be able to start it again since "The Crash," but inspiration hit me and I made it happen. And so I'm deep into the video.
You guys are gonna love it. It'll be about 3 months until I'm finished, but it's worth it. I took a 23 frame block of footage and cut it up 20 times, then tweaked and fine-tuned an effect on every single frame, then combined it up together. And despite it's shortness, it's an original thing I've never seen before (and I don't know why). Timing is also spot-on, not a mistake to be seen. I make sure every second is absolutely perfect before I move on. I know I'll like it, but it's sort of an overdone anime, which leaves me being compared to the masterpieces and I just can't top them. So my excuse for suckiness is "I'm making it for me, and no one else."

I need a life. Time to get one.

Well, I'm going to take the advice of a friend (who is no longer talking to me) and I'm going to get a life. I'm going to get a job, a social life, a driver's license, a car, and a girlfriend (maybe).
The Job
I'm calling a shipping company called Fleming about a job tomorrow. All I have to do is alot of heavy lifting and forklifting crates and other supplies from one end of a warehouse to another. I start out at $10 an hour, and depending on how much extra work I get done in the allotted time, up to $18 an hour. I also set my own hours and come in when I want. Plus benefits and vacation time. Can't get much better than that.
The Social Life
Seems like I'll be getting one right around graduation, starting with getting drunk for the first time at two graduation parties. Should be interesing and nifty, all at the same time.
The Driver's License
I start driver's ed a couple days before graduation. I have 13 of my needed 40 hours with my learner's permit.
The Car
I should be getting a car a little after my license, which will allow me to go to Anime Weekend Atlanta (AWA 8) in Atlanta, Georgia. Which happens to be September 27th to September 29th, right on my 18th birthday.
The Girlfriend
As soon as I get some money, I'm going to Baltimore and hiring a hooker. No, just joking. I guess having a car and money will help with this, but for me it's more of a matter of luck. Let's hope that isn't the same kind of luck Machine had. Poor, poor Machine and the love triangle he's in... -
Damn relationships and everything related to them... Damn them to hell.

What is it with you women? Why can't you just come right out and say what you're thinking? I swear, I try, I really try to understand your minds, but it's hard to do when you won't let me. I'm keeping my temper down and coming at this intelligently as opposed to my usual "give up on everything that doesn't go my way" attitude while I try to fix this problem I'm having... Damn it, I hate being ignored. Just gotta calm down, calm down...
*sigh*
