Ya, that's my MSN Messenger name right now...
Been a long day. Little sleep, much work.
I got the Zelda bonus disk today.
That's all I'm inspired to write about.
Catch ya later.

Time is such a precious thing...
2003-02-15 23:12:36
That would be the reason why I haven't written much lately. Projects are bigger, forumming and Messenger has gone down. But in general, things aren't getting accomplished.
Big news! My computer is running smoothly once again. ^_^
How? you ask.
By formatting the HD and reloading everything!
Well, I've always had those problems. Going in the Settings section in Display always froze my computer, I couldn't change the screen resolution or change the colour scheme. It was getting tirering. So, after weeks of that, my last resort was to format the HD, my C drive, since I also have a D drive.
After waking up late (late night Messenger), I ate, and ended up goind shopping. Well, at least looking around. I bought one thing, "Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker". I wanted to buy Pikmin, but I ended up deciding against it. Everyone it's been brought down, so I can take my time. At Wal-Mart (sp? LOL), they even had Wind Waker to play. It looked so cool.
When I got home, I decided there was work to be done. I backuped all the important files, and formatted the C drive. Then I realised something, everytime I tired to reload Windows ME, it was really just the upgrade CD. I don't have ME! All our computers have 98, then we used the upgrade to ME on them! What a way to figure that out too late! lol
Anyways, I popped that in, and let it run. Next thing you know, I'm running on Windows 98. I could change the screen and everything! I was tempted to just leave it how it was! lol But there was progress to continue. I put the upgrade in, and it was working perfectly. After another bit of time, I was running on Windows ME. Now, everything works fine! I just had to fix a few things up, and reload a few programs, but other than that, things concerning my computer couldn't have been better! ^_^
Well, after a fixed computer, I still needed to connect to internet, since I run on a LAN here at home. But before that, I watched my movie. It was a really good movie. I was intrigued by this music video by I think Kwasek. I loved the vid, and I loved the movie too! Nice action, humour, and surprises! One thing that totally surprised me was...
SPOILER
the whole thing concerning Robin. Seeing the music video gave me the impression he was dead, but this wasn't the case. Though seeing him all tied up like that scared me a bit. I kept getting all these horrible ideas of what the Joker had done to him, and a few came true. And the end was funny, by giving this impression that Holly (I think that's her name) is now the Nanny (grand mother) of these twins in the Joker's gang. lol
Today is Hockey Day in Canada! I think like 15 hours of hockey, and lots of hockey related stories. All 6 Canadian teams are playing eachother! At 4:00pm, it was Montréal vs. Edmonton, at 7:00pm it was Toronto vs. Ottawa and finishing up at 10:00pm was Vancouver vs. Calgary. It only happens once a year, so it's always a nice weekend for television. ^_^
Now that I have time, I should go on Messenger, go to the forums, and work on some homework (just to put my mind at ease). Though with all these late nights, I think I may be coming down with a cold. Let's hope for the best! ^_^

How about that?
2003-02-10 22:14:37
11:10pm, no homework done, and I feel awful...
And I have to admit, Messenger is one of the problems. I try to have too many conversations with too many people. But what am I supposed to say, I'm busy talking to someone else, go away? Well, you can throw that suggestion out the window. You know I'm not like that. Anyways, some very serious stuff is happening on Messenger. But I'm not going to go through it, because I just can't right now. Once a day is enough for me.
Other problem is forums. I'm a member at too many forums, and I TRY to post everywhere. Wellm it's not going to happen. Look at today! I think I made a total of 6 posts. I better hang my head in shame...
I'm starting to think I'm a really lousy person...

Weekends are overated...
2003-02-09 10:47:43
It's Sunday morning, and I feel like it's already over. Oh well, there's not much you can do. Although the only reason I make it through the week right now, is hoping for the weekend. This could prove to be a challenge, figuring out how to make the week more enjoyable...
905 hits? All I do is read about peoples Journals and how they just hit 3000 (Shonen Dizzy Cow) or more. I wonder how people get this many hits... I guess my life just isn't spicy enough! LOL
I saw Akira yesterday, for the first time! It was pretty good. I would have never guessed it was as old as it is. Better than a lot of the newer animes out there.
I wish I could create an anime distribution company. That would be my dream. I'm tired of seeing anime being sold at stores for 2-3 times the price of relugar movies. Like, is this an expensive hobby or what?! I'm not used to spending $45 (Canadian) for a single disc. And a box set for $279! And this is without taxe, though I'm all the other anime fans in the world have the same problem.
I still have lots of homework to do today, but I want to go to the mall and reserve a copy of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, so I can get the Zelda: OT on Feb 16! It looks awesome. I can reserve it at one store for cheaper, but get OT at the same time as WW. Or reserve it at another store, for more money, but be able to pick up OT around Feb 16. What to do, what to do...
I need to make up some more avatars and banners. I wanted to make a few cool ones to advertise Clara's new forum. It's mainly a picture archive forum, and I think that's a good idea. Since on most forums, pictures have to be at a minumun, and restricted on what os shown.
Enough from me today, later! ~_^

I feel better today. ^_^
2003-02-05 19:48:26
Well, like I've been saying so much lately, this semester is quite tiring. Gym first period doesn't help at all. Then I have to sit through Physics, which is a big change from Gym. Next I have lunch, and I barely do anything that period. After that, I have Art, where I draw, and draw, but barely get anything done in all that time. And last, I have Interior Design, which feels weird, considering all the older students, and the class being really full. This should prove to be fun! LOL ~_^
Yesterday, my lack of sleep was starting to wear on me. I even posted a thread about it! LOL Sorta like I was running into closed doors wherever I went. But I went to sleep early last night (half an hour) and woke up later this morning (half an hour). Totaling a nice amount of an extra hour of sleep. But guess what happened today? I had so much energy! Well, after school that is. It was the weirdest. I haven't felt like that in weeks. Though it's wearing off. Too bad. lol
I had a doctor's appointment today. Just my annual examination. Make sure I'm in good shape and not dying. lol Well, I'm all healthy! Though I wouldn't have ever thought otherwise. One thing she was sure to mention, was that she was impressed with my abdominal muscles (abs!). That was really surprising. Got me kinda embarrassed, but hey, I have been working it. ^_^ Other than that, I'm not average height (5'8", 173cm), and a little below average weight. But hey, if average weight is heavier than me, I'm not too keen on trying to get there. lol 122lbs in fine with me. ~_^
I got my G1 today. Well, the card anyways. Before I just had a piece of paper, but now I actually have the card, with my picture and all! It looks good, but my eyes are slightly shut. She took like 4 pics of me, because she kept saying my eyes were closed, and then said she found a good one. Oh well, you can't win them all. ^_^
Phew! Had Badminton today in gym. Very fast game. I never realized how much I'm willing to risk for a game like that! I must have been one of the only people to actually dive! I never actually think of diving for the birdie until I'm done rolling on the ground. So weird. lol
Well, since I had my doctor's appointment after school, I didn't get a chance to workout. So I haven't taken a shower yet. Looks like I'll have to do that now. See ya later!
