There's a picture of him.
Yes, that's Matt.
And damnit... It's actually true.
And the worst part is, after reading practically every headline about this case....
They have siezed Matt's computers and are checking their hard drives.
God, I hope Matt didn't save any of our conversation.
And.. This is just like Matt, now that I've read the full details.
I mean... The fact that they confiscated Swords just confirms it.
And this shit about Matt referring himself to Neo.
Hell, Matt always went by Neo. ALWAYS.
Matt went by Neo WAYYY before the Matrix even EXSISTED.
So to say this was matrix inspired... It's just a bunch of shit.
And.. The warriors of Freedom...
He called him and his brothers that, didn't it?
There was a similiar clan in Snap..
Freedom Fighters, I'm pretty sure.
I never got too affiliated with it, because, like I said, in SNap I was a pussy.
But Matt, man he was so into that.
But damn..
I...

So, you know about the old people coming back and all from the Snap Gang.
More people IMed me while I was doing some more blasted Driver's Ed homework. (A poster of 50 different traffic signs!! You have to color, draw, and label them all, too!!)
I was talking to WuWu when it happened.
If you live in New Jersey, and have heard about this case, PLEASE DEAR GOD email me with more information.
So here is the news article(s) I was sent via email:

Father Denies Son Intended Murder Spree
Police Find Letter Threatening Family
POSTED: 8:08 a.m. EDT July 8, 2003
UPDATED: 8:19 a.m. EDT July 8, 2003
The father of Matthew Lovett says he saw a letter from his son indicting Matthew had considered killing his family after the start of a planned shooting spree in Oaklyn, N.J.
However, Lovett's father, Ron, and the lawyer for the New Jersey teenager accused of planning the attack said Matthew Lovett didn't intend to hurt anyone.
Matthew Lovett and two other teens, one 15 and one 14, face charges of conspiracy to commit murder in Oaklyn, N.J.
Police said the three were apprehended Sunday with loaded guns, knives and 2,000 rounds of ammunition after an alleged carjacking attempt.
Oaklyn police said that Lovett left a letter indicating his plans to kill his own family, but the letter indicted that Matthew also thought the idea was "too messy."
Ron Lovett, Matthew's after, also told the Today show's Matt Lauer on Tuesday that he saw the letter at the Oaklyn police station on Sunday.
"I was in shock," Ron Lovett said. "I said to myself, 'My son may have snapped somehow. This was not him.'"
Craig Mitnick, an attorney for Matthew Lovett, says Matthew told him that he "never, ever was going hurt anyone."
"The three teens did not understand the implications of their actions," Mitnick said. "It was a fantasy land that could have gone very, very bad. Thank God it didn't."
Ron Lovett also said that his son didn't plan to commit crimes.
"I don't think he was really trying to carry out what he is charged with. He calls himself a 12 year old in an 18-year-old body," Ron Lovett said. "My son doesn't know how to drive and he never fired a gun. He wouldn't know what bullets to put in what chamber."
Schoolmates said Lovett kept a list of enemies going back to grade school. They also said Lovett and his younger brother endured a lot of taunting.
"He's spent a lot of years protecting his younger brother because he has facial defects," Ron Lovett said. "When they used to go out, they were sometimes verbally and physically abused by other kids."
Ron Lovett also dismissed some statements by local residents that Matthew Lovett walked around carrying a baseball bat in public.
Mitnick said Lovett lost his mother nine years ago and that's when he became a recluse. He lived with his brother and father.
Jim Lovett, Matthew's brother, said some of the weapons confiscated from the trio belong to Lovett's father.
"He kept them locked in a big case in the back of the closet," said Jim.
Jim told NBC 10 that his brother would spend hours writing in a journal or on his computer.
"He would spend time by himself in his apartment bedroom. He was really distant the last couple of months. He became a whole other person. He just changed all of a sudden," Jim said.
Prosecutors will seek an involuntary waiver for two of the suspects so they can be tried as adults. A judge will consider the request sometime in July.

At a press conference Monday, police said that each of the suspects carried a 30-30 high-power rifle and a shotgun strapped to their backs and had handguns in their waistbands. All of the weapons were loaded, investigators said. Police found more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition, and they believed the three teens were planning the attack for several months.
Lovett, of Oaklyn, was the only suspect named publicly. Lovett is a graduate of Collingswood High School. He is in jail in lieu of $1 million bail. The two juveniles are Oaklyn Middle School students whose names weren't released. They are being held in a juvenile detention home.
All three teens face weapons offenses and attempted carjacking charges. Lovett also faces a charge of aggravated assault for allegedly pointing a gun at a police officer.

Matthew Lovett, Matt, is my best firend.
Well, one of my best friends. I have a lot of best friends from Snap.
It just so happens that last week, Matt was saying his goodbyes to everyone online.
He talked to me for a good hour about it.
He said he was going to run away to Canada, west coast. And that he wouldn't be able to have access to a computer or internet there. He also debated bringing me along since I mentioned I wanted to go to Canada.
He also said that he and his brother were going.
Now, Matt is almost 19, so from all that he was saying, I assumed he was moving out of the house, away from his parents.
So, today, just about a week later, I get this email.
And I am "Fuck.. No.. No.."
Everything just fit into place, after I read it and talked to SX, a gangleader of an ally Gang to my old one from Snap(yeah, I like the metaphor, I'll keep it).
He said that at first, he thought it was one of Sable's sick jokes. Sabel was the one who sent the email to him, and Sable plays some really odd jokes.
But the thing is, Sable doesn't write that well. And why would she even play with somehting like THIS? And plus, Sable doesn't know all the names of Matt's family.
You're probably thinking that I thought Matt was really oging to do it.
ANd I'd have to honestly say I do not know.
The IMs I got from him the day he got offline for good fit in perfectly with these facts, but Matt is really not the type of person to go through with these things.
Matt has Depression. I have depression. Matt has a hitlist. I have a hitlist(And a very detailed one, but in my head...). Matt has a note saying that he wants to kill his family.
I have a few notes discussing how I want to kill mine.
But you and I both know that each of us would never actually go through with the killing part.
I hope Matt's lawyer is in my right state of mind, because then he might sway the Jury.
Then, there's the whole hit list thing in general. Who DOESN'T have a hitlist?
At my school alone, there is a schoolwide hitlist copied every year. It's called the Junior Hitlist. All the teachers know about it. But it's taboo to say anything. The thing is, the old seniors make up this hitlist of juniors, and then, the old juniors/new seniors that aren't on the hitlist are supposed to carry it out. Of course, it's not actually murdering them. It's just more of a like "Ruin their life at highschool" type of thing.
Then, there's the note killing his family. Matt has role played for just as much as I have, and he could just be talking about his rp family. Hell, I write notes about MY rp family, as well. Except all off them have quit rping and gotten lives now, but, back when they used to rp.. Hell of a lot of notes.
But then... Matt knows how to drive a car. I know that much. Even if his parents say he doesn't, I know he can. But the gun thing... That just makes me worry.
Matt didn't learn how to use guns irl. It learned it online.
If that Matt confesses that, I will never be allowed near a computer again.
Or maybe I will, but not online.
I know Matt's too kind to actually state names, but still...
And I cannot believe I'm worried for myself when it's him that's facing life in prision.
And then there's other things...
Like, I keep thinking to myself that this is the PERFECT situation for me to stab my old teacher in the back. I keep thinking that I should take advantage of this, since this is exactly th ebreak I need.
But.. Matt's my best friend.
I truly am converting to my old self-centered ways... I need to pull myself back before anything gets too out of hand...
But then again....
No, I can't think about that...
So, again, IF YOU LIVE IN NEW JERSEY PLEASE EMAIL ME ANY MORE INFO YOU MAY HAVE ON THIS CASE.
ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!!!!!!
... Thank you. -
W00t! And double w00t! Today is officially the wierdest, oddest, and happiest day of my life!

Okay, so I'll keep the metaphor of the gang.
So I talked it over With Gohan, for a really really long time. I mean.. We were real close. really REALLY close. And I didn't want to go back to my past because, I always depended on other people instead of myself to take care of my problems.
I never faught anyone, I whined for someone else to do it. And then when the gang broke up, I went off, became my own gangleader, and yadda yadda yadda, until Gohan comes back and wants me back in the now completely reformed gang.
That is, everyone's there but me and a few others who died(quit rping for good).
So, as I said, we talked for a long time.
And then, we agreed that we would be enemies.
So now, we are both working dilligently to stab eachother in the back.
He's stronger, but I'm smarter.
He says he's smarter, but he's deluding himself.
It's a war between teacher and student, girl against guy, lover against ex-lover....
Kind of sounds like a few animes, ne?
I haven't gotten this kind of surge in YEARS.
When I was speeding, and a big fighter, I always got this surge of energy through my blood that just felt like.. I don't know.. It''s not like an energy rush.. I guess it's more like when you inject drugs into yourself and you get that momentary high.
I am getting that now.
I enjoy tormenting him with his failed teachings.
I enjoy fighting him.
I am a rebel!
And I'm proud of it.
Shall we cross paths, I'll beat him.
I'll smack his face is the dirt just like I did that other time I faught him.
I'm no longer that little girl who needed a shoulder to cry on.
I'm the smart, cunning, improvising fox-tailed Yukai of a man who trusts no one but himself and those who lost their own lives just to travel with him.
With me.
It feels good to be back.

In AMV news...
Well, wow.
Give me a second to figure out how to word this without exploiting anything, yet, not allwoing people to potentially figure it out...
Bah. I can't. But this is too great a secret to keep.
Bah.
Must.
Say.
SOMETHING!
Okay.
Let's just say I have a new friendly rival. A new one.
Not an old one.
New.
Okay, I think that was vague enough.
But it's kind of a riddle.
Think about rivalry in a different light.... -

Well, first things first. I worked on TFF today, and have finished the first layer of it.. I dunno when it will ever get done. The ending of it keeps getting screwy...
And then... I have Driver's Ed this week... WHich I have decided is the worst waste of time ever.
Now for life online.
I am unwillingly being recruited into an old league of RPers.
You don't understand.
I don't understand.
They don't understand.
Everyone from Snap is getting back together in this community that Perry is making.
And it started with one of the lesser people who was a firend of mine asking for me to join.
Then, today, the second best of snap(Elite rper dude), although not as good as some of the MSNers, is trying to get me to join him again.
I don't get it. 90% of the people hated me, and I was one of THE wimpiest people on SNap.
But this guy, Gohan(he has nothing to do with DBZ, however), wants me to go.
Dude... He was.. is.. 2nd best.
And he was one of the people who taught me how to rp.
And I guess, that as his student, he wants me.
But, that doesn't make any sense since I outperformed him in our tb fight recently.
And I suck at fighting.
SO maybe he wants to punch some sense into me or something...
For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, think of me as belonging to a gang.
And I was one of the weakest members in the gang...
But Gohan, he was the gang leader, and he kept with me, taught me how to fight and everything.
So then, when I left the gang to go establish my own, I, obviously, turned out to be a better gangleader then he was.
He wanted to test my strength one day, so we went at it.
And I beat the shit out of him.
And now he's telling me he's better then me again, and wants me back?
SOmehow, this seems like a trap.
A very, very larger, and brilliantly ornated trap.... -
If you don't watch this video, you're really missing out.

Watch it and weep.
Hands down, it is going to be THE winner of VCA's "Best First Video".
I mean look at it!
After I left the opinion, it turns out it got a better score then MeriC and VegettoEX's "Redemption"!
.... And that's saying something.
