You'd think I've never wore anything nice before...

I have to get ready for hockey soon, so I'll keep this short. ^_^
Something I've noticed lately, is the amount of new Journal users here on the org. Everytime I'm curious with an uncommon member's journal on the "new journal entries" section, it's always their first entry! You'd almost think it's like everytime someone joins, they use the journal once, but never return... o_0
I just saw the commercial for Final Fantasy X-2. -_- Ok, so once in awhile Nintendo fans are allowed to be jealous of Sony fans, right?
Anyways, about the title... Today I decided to wear this nice sweater I had gotten for Christmas one year. Well, I admit, I've wasted a lot of clothing because I always thought it looked "uncool". But I've finally gotten to the age wear I don't care about that anymore, so I wear nice stuff once in awhile. Anyways, this is probably my third time wearing this sweater to school, but so many people were so surprised. People kept saying, "Hey, nice sweater!", or "It looks good on you!", or "Hey Kevin, pretty fancy!". I know these are compliments, but I kinda feel it's like an insult about the stuff I usually wear. Even my own father said "You should wear clothes like that more often. You look very handsome.". And even more, I actually saw that girl (who still seems to have a crush on me) for the first time in awhile. Instead of the regular "ask for a hug and all that", she just chatted with me for a few seconds. I started thinking maybe she was over me. I was wrong because she ended the conversation with, "Well, see ya later Sexy!" I'm not sure what to say about this... I'm not used to this kind of attention. Maybe I'll just go back to jeans and a t-shirt... lol

Every once in awhile I like finding out how some of my old friends are doing, so I check out their journals. Most of these people have LiveJournal accounts, so it's always nice to read. The only annoying thing is the background. For some reason it always takes a while to load, then makes the scrolling kinda choppy. Sarah's Chobits background definitely makes scrolling choppy. Lupu's background takes a bit to load, so in the mean time, her font is almost impossible to read against that beige (one of the hardest words to remember how to spell!) coloured background (which is only temporary). But if they made it that way, they must enjoy the look, so who am I to complain? ~_^
I really liked my sculpture and plan to keep it. Only problem is that it leaks, so I'll have to bring it home, tear it apart and remake it. I was really depressed because of this at school today. I kinda sat in front of it, with the light on (inside it), and stared at it. I hope at the very least i'll get a decent mark.
Semi-Formal is on Thursday. Whenever people ask me if I'm going, and I say yes, they always follow up with who am I going with? For some reason I'm not that embarrassed to say that I'm not going with anyone. Just one of those things that mature with you with time.
Speaking of maturing, and I can't believe how much I've changed since grade 8 (elementary school). I used to be incredibly shy, do all my work, by completely nervous in front of people and all those things. The biggest change I find is being nervous in front of other people. I don't find it as hard to present projects in front of crowds. My face doesn't go completely red, and my hands don't shake anymore. Just the other day I VOLUNTEERED to present something ALONE in front of the class, just because no one else was willing to do anything in GROUPS! I still find it just as hard to talk to girls I like unfortunately. But I don't find it as hard to approach strangers anymore with a friendly face. ^_^

Here I am, wearing nothing but a towel...
2003-12-01 21:56:35
-_- My brother used all the hot water, so I'm here waiting for some more to warm up for my shower. I was all ready, turned on the water, kept raising the heat so it's be hot, and then... bam! I was at the hottest, and it felt nice and warm. Sorry, but watm doesn't count as hot. So to eat up a little bit of time, here I am, wrapped in a towel. lol
If there was anything I'd ever regret, it's not being more involved throughout my high school years. This is my senior year, and I'm just starting to enjoy volunteering. Like, I always liked helping out, but this is the first year I was willing to give up any of my free time to help out with anything. Back a few years, I NEEDED my after school "watching tv and lounging" around time. Now, I finally realize how useless that was. A few years too late I suppose.
My project was finished well, but the bottom leaks a bit. And all the silicon is all dried up. :: sigh :: What to do, what to do...
Poor Clara, her forum still isn't up. I wonder if there's anything wrong that I could help with...
I don't understand what's with the idea of giving away the Zelda bonus disk with new GameCubes! Anyone who loves Zelda would have already boughten a GameCube, so it's not like all those who don't have one will be rushing out to get one now with this new offer. I'm sure they probably don't care unless the price goes even further down. What a waste. It would have been more useful to give it away with the purchase of any two specially marked games (they have something like this right now, but you have to register you games and wait 6 weeks). -_-
A bunch of my friends are all planning to get together for Prom and make an EXTRA special plan for getting to Prom. I'd say what it is, but I'm afraid someone may take it. :: shifty eyes :: lol
Well, I've waited long enough. Time for a shower. ^_^

Different views on the same subject...

My dad was starting to get mad at me for not having finished my sculpture yet, and it's late Sunday night. He was telling me all about how I need to start earlier, prepare more and that I can't keep doing this. He started talking to my mom because she said he wasn't helping. He said "I'm telling him this because he doesn't seem to understand the principle behind it.". I said "I do understand, it's just I'd rather not waste time and energy thinking about what I SHOULD have done. So I try and focus on the current problem.". He sort of mumbled to himself, calmed down, tried giving me some ideas, and then went to bed. So right now I've been working on it for another 3 hours since the rest of my family have gone to sleep.
It's funny how you don't realize certain things when you're busy. Thigns like how your ankle is very swollen. o_0 I just remembered that I blocked a shot in hockey, and it hit the front of my skate, where there's little padding. I limped off the ice, but just took a breather and was right back out. No one really noticed that my ankle hurt. During the game, I forgot about it, and the same thing while doing homework. Now that I have nothing really to think about, it decides to hurt again. -_-
The snow started melting again today, and later at night it rained a bit. I wonder if we'll have any snow tomorrow when I wake up...
This weekend has been awfully short for a 3 day weekend. -_-
I had more things to say, but I can't remember what they were. Not to mention I still need to make something for my parents anniversary tomorrow, and get some sleep sometime.

Sculpture in progress...
2003-11-29 22:49:49
I have a good idea what it's going to look like right now. I scored the lucite I had into 5 pieces, so it should make a nice box now. I'm going to fill up the middle with hair gel, and float cds in the hair gel. Wondering why I'm using these materials? In class, we drew out materials out of a hat, so I got stuck with plastic, cds and hair gel. I've met the requirements, now I just need to make it look good! ^_^
I haven't really left the house today. Feels kinda weird. I woke up, watched some television, had breakfast, watched Princess Mononoke, had lunch, watched Sakura Wars, worked out, showered, went on the computer, worked on my sculpture, watched television and ended up right here. Now that I think about it, I watched about 2 hours of tv, and 2 hours of DVDs (skipping to all the good scenes). That's quite a bit, for me I mean. o_0
I'm trying to arrange to get a limo for Semi-Formal! I'm going to get a 10 seater, so my whole table will be able to take one lift. We'll all pitch in like $20, and it should work fine. Now I just have to make sure everyone's fine with this arrangement. I hope it works out. ^_^
I was thinking that if I went to Anime North this year, maybe I'll actually dress up as someone. I figured maybe Ashitaka, because his costume wouldn't be too hard. Pants, torn off sleeves, t-shirt, 2 cloths for the hat... Well, I suppose my friends would love it that I did go and actually dress up. She'd probably go crazy. lol
