  • Six Flags 2002-04-27 12:36:06 Well, I went to Six Flags yesterday as our school's Physics field trip. I got lost as soon as I got there, because it was my first time going to Six Flags. I soon found my group, and we got to work on the packets for the rides. We spent about half the day just on the packets. Then I went back to the bus to drop them off and came back. I had about 4 hours left, so I just wandered around trying to find some people that I know. I soon got lost again, but found a couple of friends. Since I had no place to go, they took me in. They were still doing their packets, but I just followed along. I found myself in line for a ride called The Joker. It's like a big ride and just goes back and forth. I just forgot that I dislike heights mostly because of the motion that the rides give me. I was scared to death, when the ride got up as high as it did. The girl sitting next to me, who I don't know, thought that I was going to throw up on her. I reassued her that I wouldn't, because I can't really get sick. I haven't been sick in the past couple of years. I was so scared, that I almost had my head on her lap. I just bent over so that I wasn't able to see the height that I was at. After the ride stopped, I ran to Dustin, who didn't ride the ride. We just walked around and went on the Merry-Go-Round twice. Then we sat down and ate a little. I had two corndogs, because I haven't had a corndog in years. Then we went on a water ride, which wasn't too bad. I was the person, who got the most wet. Everyone else had their feet up in the air, so they wouldn't get wet, but mine were on the ground. Even my boxers got wet. We then got some ice cream and shopped around. Since I was feeling a bit cookey and eccentric, I bought a Rams magician hat. I can probably use it for my English project, when I become Merlyn. We came back to the school, where I just picked up my stuff from my locker, and went out to the car and drove home. I reached home about six o'clock. I then fell asleep for the next fourteen hours, and here I am!

  • Premiered 2002-04-24 23:03:01 I premiered my Final Fantasy VIII music video. Here's the URL for it, if anyone wants to download it. http://www.animemusicvideos.org/video.php?v=7599 I'll try to leave an opinion for one of your videos, if you leave one for mine. I usually try to do that kind of thing. Of course, it takes me a while to download a music video, since most of them are fairly large, and I'm on 56Gay. The FTP should be up during the nights. My host doesn't run it 24/7. Most of the time I have to ask him to run it. The DIRECT links will only work if you download using a download resumer or Netscape Navigator. Otherwise you'll have to go on the FTP, where the information is posted in the video information, and download that way. I'm sure many people will be able to download it.

    I had my final Physics test of the year today, aside from the AP Exam. It was an alright test, but the multiple choice was the hardest. It was actually one of the hardest tests that I've taken all year. I took about 2 hours on the entire thing. I'm also still reading The Once and Future King. I'm on about page 209, right after the end of the first fourth of the book. I have to read about 100 pages more, before English class tomorrow. We have to present on our books abou a week before school ends. I decided to grow out my beard for our group and become Merlyn. I think that would be totally awesome. I actually haven't done history homework yet either. I'll be doing that soon, and after that I can do my English homework. I don't think there's much else worth talking about for school. Oh, I have to turn in my English paper on Monday. I need a good, strong A on it, so that I'll be able to exempt the English final. I really do not want to take that final.

    I've updated my website, including a new counter that provides good statistics and a forum. I still have to fix a couple of errors in it, but it shouldn't be too big of deal. I'm still working on web design tutorials for everyone. I've finished about one-fourth of the HTML tutorial. It takes a while to process everything through, so that people will be able to understand. I still need to change the background image for permanancy now. It's getting to old and plain. I'm thinking of something blue and black. I would also have to change the colors of all of the tables and text of course, but that can't take too much time.

    I'm not sure if I've post about this yet or not, but this is my deep thought that I've been developing in the past couple of days. It's not the finalized version, but I'll eventually have it all in writing soon. I call it the Theory of Chaos. It's mainly for human beings, because I have theorized that humans are just a bunch of chaos. Humans have one thought one second, and a different thought the next. You can't actually concentrate on one thing for more than a second. Of course, scientists have proven that atoms and molecules has random explosions of energy, making the basic unit of all matter chaotic also. If everything in the world is chaotic, especially humans' brain patterns, then who can we actually rely on for some decent help. If humans ever stablize, then that will be the end of the world, because then one person will be able to concentrate, and everyone else would be chaotic still. Nothing is reliable.

  • No Freedoms... 2002-04-15 19:06:26 I live in a world without freedom. I don't think that I'll ever be free. I'm always being yelled at for no specific reason. Take for today, I was yelled at by my parents, as usual. My mom goes through my wallet to find thirty dollars. She's asking all of these questions of how I got the money. They're really simple answers. I just save up the money from not eating lunch a couple of times. I did that like months ago. I've saved thirty dollars from a couple of months ago. I was going to spend it on my Physics trip next week, but my mom wants to get it back. I'm probably just not going to eat for the rest of the school year, so that I'll be able to get the money back.

    I sent my love the CDs that I burned last night for her today. I walked about 6 miles total to and back from the post office to deliver the package. It was one hell of a walk, because the sun was out, and the temperature was nearing seventy degrees. The road was all curvy, and there were a lot of hills too. I started at about 3:30pm and didn't reach the post office until about a 4:10pm. I can't believe that it took me forty minutes to walk that far. Then it was around a twenty minute wait in line to get my postage on the package. It cost me around three dollars and fifty cents. I was sort of surprised at that, but it will get to her before her birthday. It should reach her in about three to five days. I was a long walk back took. I think the walk back took me about fourty-five minutes total. I wasn't back home until 4:15pm. That's when I was formally yelled at, about 2 hours later.

    I guess I don't really have anything else to talk about. I have MAP testing tomorrow again. It's not really that fun. I almost forgot to say that I download the video Odorikuruu. It's very interesting. I guess I'll be adding my name to the light of 200+ people that have already reviewed it. I never give out perfect 10's, and I did find some very viewable flaws in the video. It should be a nice one to comment on.

  • ... 2002-04-14 11:39:08 I have to redo all of my notecards for my English report. I thought that we got them back on Friday, but I can't find them. All of the notecards that we might use for our paper are due tomorrow. I have to redo all 20 that I did for Friday plus some more, but the hard part is that I have to find the same URL for the articles. It took me forever to find the articles last time. I don't know what the hell I'm going to do. This is just really going to suck. I don't really want to do them all over again. I think that I'll just do the ones that I haven't done yet. Oh! I just remembered that I have the URLs on the printed versions of the articles! This is awesome now, because I only have to find one article. Now it's not so hard, but hard none the less. As you can see, I'm just writing whatever comes to my brain and my fingertips. There's not editing involved in this. I've picked my book for English class. It's called Once And Future King. It's supposed to be about King Arthur. I love all of the fantasy, medevial type of books. My favorite was Magician. I used to boast about reading it, but not anymore. ...There's a reason for it, but I just don't feel like telling anyone. Not unless you ask me personally, then I'll consider telling you, but still probably not.

    I'll be premiering my Final Fantasy VIII music video soon this week. I'm pretty sure that everyone will like it. I put a lot of thought into the way I wanted it, even though I did barely any planning for the video. I got two more reviews for my Final Fantasy VII music video. People seem to like it. It's moving up in the ranks for Non-Anime. I'm hoping that within the next couple of reviews that it'll be within the top 10. That would be a really nice accomplishment. Hopefully, my FF8 music video will be even higher than that.

    I've been getting a couple of e-mails about the editing guides on my website. They're just basic guides that somebody can just go to the Adobe Premiere website to find. I need to make a Distribution guide for RealPlayer soon, since many of the Dragonball Z videos in the world are in RealPlayer. It'll bring in more of any influx to my website.

    I guess I should get to some work, since this will take a couple of hours anyway. I'll post back later, everyone.

  • Haven't Been On...Updates!! 2002-04-13 06:37:08 Okay, I haven't really posted about my life and anything in my Journal since Wednesday, so I guess I'll start with my Thursday. The only problem is that I don't remember anything about Thursday. I guess nothing really important happened then. I don't think I told people that I got a 89% in English, when everyone else in my class has low B's and C's. I was really amazed. I think that I can get an A in the class. I'm really striving for it, because I need a 96% in the class to exempt the final. It's one of my hardest finals, and I really do not want to take it. I'll also be exempting my Spanish final, because I've never taken one, and I don't really want to start taking a Spanish final now.

    Nothing really happened yesterday. It was just an easy day. Oh, I forgot to say that I'll be finishing up my Evangelion picture this weekend for art class. It's going to rock, because not everything in the picture has to be colored. We're using pastels to color with, so I can't do that until I'm in class, but I'll be finishing up the drawing this weekend. Some of my art was put into the art show for today. I don't think any of it is really good. I like my two Evangelion drawings the best. I think that I may be able to upload my new Evangelion picture onto the web. I have to ask if my teacher would allow me to bring in my other drawing to upload that one.

    I'm stuck in Final Fantasy IX. I'm in the Desert Castle and I can't really get out. I think I've lit all of the candles, but I still can't get out. It's really weird. There's probably just one candle left and I can't get it. I need to burn a couple of CDs for my friends today. The guy that I've been sitting behind in Physics is a huge anime guy, and I just found out yesterday. He's going to burn me a copy of every anime he has, and I'm going to burn him a copy of every anime that I have. It'll be so cool to see a bunch of other stuff now. I can expand my horizon. I guess I better be going. I want to watch some cartoons and play Final Fantasy IX.
