GED Journey...
2003-06-03 13:47:38
So awhile back I was talking about my GED. How it was "under way". That meant I had found the place I was going to take it and mapped it out. I had planned to go out there and pay for it the next Tuesday. The problem was I woke up @ 6am to drive Kthulhu to the bus stop. I get up, drive him there, come home, set the alarm for 8:30am then go back to bed. I am suppose to be at this place @ 9:30 and they only take payment at that time on tuesdays. -_-. Long story short, I wake up @ 2pm -_-. Overslept. So not that week, next week.
Next week is this week. Specifically today. It's now 10:46am. I had a little journey out there to get this taken care of well, let me explain.
When things like this happen I usually can never sleep. I am always too nervous and I was super nervous that I would oversleep again. I am the one to become unmotivated at the tiniest hint of tiredness/laziness. So most likely if I tried waking up @ 8:30am I would say "I'll juzz dooo it nexxt week xo -z z zzz". Well I didn't want that to happen. So I basically stayed up. Of course the fact that I woke up @ 5pm yesterday aided in me not being able to sleep.
The fact is though I am not a morning person, or a day person at all as Rachel put it. So like I don't like waking up when the great day star is up. -_-. Not my style I guess. I was like this as a baby and I am like this now. I was like this when I was 8. Blah blah. Change it Gabe you say!!!. Oh but I've tried. I was getting up @ 7am every day for awhile to go into work extra early for a entire month. People say you should be acclimated to it after about two weeks. I NEVER got aclimated to it always was about to fall asleep when talking on the phone to people. Maybe if I had a more active job. I just basically lived on caffinated soda that whole month. That's what alot of people do these so called "morning people" they hook their vaines to the pimp that is caffine and think it's normal. See that's another rant. Of course there are those individuals who are in good shape and actually wake up and not feel like they've been run over by a 18wheeler. I am refering to Rachel there again. See isn't she just wonderful -_-.
Around 5am I put some clothing in the laundry as I forgot to do that the night before. I am just never prepared I guess -_-. So that's going and I change into some junky khakis which have a whole in the crotch which my penis would slip through if I didn't have my sexy underwear on ROFLs. Also this shirt that Stream, bless their hearts, gave me. Which is not a bad shirt until you look on the back of it. The front is a nice clean stream logo. The shirt is black. But on the back you have the words :
C. I. A.
Customer
Interaction
Agent
OH THANKYOU BLESSED STREAM INTERNATIONAL FOR GIVING SUCH A FAGTARD SHIRT AS THIS. THIS JUST SHOWS ME HOW MUCH YOU CARE!!!
I never wore that shirt in public. You know, actually I did once. I was going to Subway and Stream people got 50cents off. I don't know why I wanted to embarrased myself so badly to get 50cents off of a sandwich, but I did. I didn't get the discount because I didn't have the balls to demand my stream discount. So I wore the shirt for NOTHING. NOTHING. Later me and friends went to Fry's Electronics!!! I was walking around with this shirt on my back and this one women came up to me and said "I like your shirt". No she didn't want to have sex with me because of it. She was 40 or something and looked like a soccer mom. I had no idea why she would like this shit ass shirt. -_-. Probably a Republican or something.
Anyways!
So today I wear that shirt and it's NO PROBLEM because I am just hanging around the house and the most I'll do outside is drive Kthulhu to the bus stop and back. Which does not involve me getting out of the car except when I get home. So Kthulhu wakes up and I drive him down to the bus stop. Some of you may be saying "Klinky! Let Kthulhu walk his ass to the bus stop". The bus stop is about a mile away and Kthulhu has been in a better mood(less tentacle rapes, not on me but of the Japanese Kogals we have living in the back) since I started giving him rides. I like driving to so it's not that big of a deal.
Anyways so I drive him down there and I notice "Low on Gas". Well I think "I'll get gas". So I goto the gas station. All stations in Oregon are Full Service. Where the man comes out and fills the tank and sucks your dick. Well not that far. But they fill you tank up. This saves Klinky from looking like ditz because he'd know how to troubleshoot a computer, but he can't manage to tap some buttons and pull a trigger on a gas hose. ! :O Those things are confusing. Once again though, I bet Rachel pumps her own gas. STOP MENTION RACHEL, WHY ARE YOU COMPARING ME TO HER!. >_<. Oh, maybe I am doing it to myself. Ok, so I think "no need to get out". I tell him to give me "$20 of Plus". The car was really low on gas. It was on the empty. $10 usually fills it up half-way. So I decided $20 = full tank. So I am about to hand him the $20 and he's like "Pay inside". I am thinking "What kind of a fuck 'Full-Serve' is this". So I get out of my car. Note I look scruffy as shit. Wearing my krappy khakis(luckily I am wearing underwear so my penis isn't flying everywhere), no socks and this crappy shirt. Heh, not my best appearance.
So I am walking across the gas station and I think the cashier/food store is one way. But it's not. I am tired and wired at this moment and I am easily confused. So I lean against my car. This exposes the back of my shirt for all to see. I hear some guys laffing. Maybe it was at me, I'll never know. I just turned around and found where the stupid Gas Store was and went in there. There was a nice east indian lady there and she was like "$20". So I gave her the $20 and left. I went back to my car and the guy pumping gas said "Oh man it only took $18.60!" >_< DOH. I decided the $1.40 is not worth walking across the gas station to haggle the east indian lady over while wearing a shirt with BIG LETTERs that states "CUSTOMER INTERACTION AGENT". While I haggle her and say " YOU BITCH, I PAYED $20 BUT I ONLY GOT $18.60". =/ She's start crying or something. Some CIA person I am.
So I am like "Agh, fuck". I just hop in the car and drive off. Screw the $1.40. I then decided to goto the Burger King and reward myself with two CrossN' Whiches. Which are the best food available @ Burger King. The guy who made that should get free sex, just like the person who put potatos and cheese together, or the person who decided cranberry and raspberry having a wild sex party in your mouth was a good idea. Yes indeed.
The guy was sirely though. First I pull up and it sounds like they're not open. Then he soundly blurts something out. He's mexican or something. He's like got a thick accent and the fucking speaker phone isn't helping. So I am like "What was that?" and he's like in a oddly very clear and very snooty matter "I SAID, I'LL TAKE YOUR ORDER WHEN YOU'RE READY". So I said two CrossN'Whiches. Then he goes back to the garble speach "sdfskdfhsdjksd else" "Uhhh no" "sdlfklff window" "ok thanks". So I go there and I get my prize.
At home I am munching on them and after I am about done with the first I get a massive stomach ache. Bad! Not good. Especially when I have another CrossN'Which just begging to be eaten in the bag. So I am like "This is not good". So I hop onto the floor and do some situps. This is my form of main excersise I guess. It's pititful. Though I seem to have stron abs. They just don't show through this layer of flub I have. Well they do, but it would be better if I didn't have the extra 10lbs or so. Or maybe I am just gay and need to accept my body. I was looking at myself with out a shirt on and I noted that I seem "Too white". I need some sun on my body. I think I'll weed whack the side yard and hang out back there. Or maybe I'll just lay down on the front lawn with the words "FREE SEX" marked in sharpie on my back.
So after doing the situps I let out a series of belches. It was just indigestion folks. A common occurance with Klinky because his digestive sytem sucks. So that's all good and I continue to munch the greatest food on earth. The only downside was there was a small chunk of fat in the 2nd CrossN'Which which distracted. =
So those CrossN'Whiches are done. By this time my cloth were done and the time was getting near for me to leave. I go and take a shower. Scrub my SEXXXXXXXXXXXXXy boooooody =. Then get out and like sit around naked for a bit. I did that. Yes, I got distracted reading forums and I was like "You know you're naked" and I am like "OMG You're right". So I decided it was wise to put some pants on. :| That was for the better I think. Once again. Wired/Tired is not helping my concentration.
After putting pants on. I go and re-map the location I am suppose to goto. So I am like W00T! I got it, wrote the directions down since I don't have a printer. Or well the barbie printer I had I hurled to the ground because it pissed me off. But anyways. I got that written down and I had some time to spare. I imagined it would take maybe 45mins to fine this play. It was 9miles away. Yahoo said 16mins. But Yahoo is a lying bitch that will trick you into things that you don't really want to do. Also I get lost easily.
So with my sparetime I take a twenty minute nap. After the nap I get up grab all my stuff get a glass of water. I also see one last can of MUG Root Beer in the fridge. So I grab that to take in the car. As if I get nervous/woozy usually a drink of something to either wet my mouth or change the flavor in my mouth will help me regain composure =/. So I get that and head to the car.
I only have $20 at this moment. So I need to goto the bank. Get out another $80 to pay the $100!!! $100!!! FEE for this damn test. I could get it for $15 cheaper, but I'd have to go about 16miles more. -_-. Not something I wanted to do.
Normally I would goto the bank at Fred Meyer, but that was in the opposite direction of where I am headed. So to save time I think I'll take a stream lined approach. Instead of going down to Fred Meyer and then turning around and going down Farmington to Murray. I would go down Farmington, turn right onto Ceadar Hills and goto the WinCo Washington Mutual. Then I could turn left on Ceadar wills onto this one street that would get me to Murray anyhow. So that was the better idea!
So I get in the car and turn left on to Farmington. Going down Farmington I am nearing Ceadar Hills. Really close by. So I am about to turn left, but what's this! The right turn lane is CLOSED. No right turns. Or atleast it looks that way. I think "no problem, go up one block, turn right, then up another block then turn left onto Ceadar hills". So I think! I think that the people who created this "fair" town of Beaverton would not have had their heads way far up their asses when they made the road system. But of course they did. I turn right on the street one block ahead. Then I turn right again. Going back down to Ceadar hills. I come to the intersection where I could turn left. But wait, up there near the street lights, that's a sign with a arrow pointing left with a BIG RED SLASH THROUGH IT! Whoops. Guess what!! Can't turn left onto Ceadar Hills. No go!! Not gonna happen. So I say fuck it. I am on Canyon Rd, which runs parralel to Farmington. I just go down it in the opposite direction of my location to Fred Meyer and I goto the bank there. Mission Accomplished.
So I get back out onto Farmington and I continue down to Murray. Turn right on Murray, Left on Jenkins, Right on 185th Ave, Left on Cornell... Then Yahoo said "Right on Ray Circle". So I am wondering where the fuck Ray Circle is. I keep looking and I am about to turn around when I fly by it at 45miles per hour. So I am like "No problem, I'll turn right, then right again and just use a back street to cut across to it". So I continue. I see a light ahead and start signaling right. But as I get closer, I see that you CAN'T TURN RIGHT because there is no street there. Whoops. Turn off the blinker and continue on up. So I turn right on to Shute St., which then I turn right off Shute St on some odd street, I forget the name. I then notice that this does not look like the place where the Northwest Educational Services Distrct's main offices are. It's a bunch of middle-class suburbian houses. All of which seem to have been cluster fucked together into some mutated community. Roads sprout off of everywhere. They all end in a Cul-de-Sac turnabout. ONe turn leads to another. It's like a hedge maze, only with "rich" peoples houses(*snork* they're not really rich, they're just in debt).
So after turning around a few too many cul-dee-sacs and having to reverse out of the same driveway twice. I decided that there was no way to get to Ray Circle from Suburbia doom zone. So I snake my way out of there. I get onto Cornell and turn left onto Ray circle. Finally thinking I am going the right way I am displeased to find that slut Yahoo has mislead me again. That dirty whore. There is nothing but another suburbian maze. Feeling disheartened I some how find my way to a STILE road. This road makes me want to take a photo and send it to STILEPROJECTS, that would be l33t. So I go down STILE and some how it leads me back into suburia cluster fuck #1. So we have to inbred suburbia cluster fucks, fucking each other. -_-.
Anyways from STILE, I get back onto this road that leads me back to Cornell. I get into the left turn lane and I end up behind a Imprezza, something or other. The guy has "souped" it out. More like riced it up. So I am behind him and the light turns green. This thing is noisey as fuck. It's not noisey for a good reason because it doesn't seem to have much power. It's noisey to give the idea to the girlies that his dick is on the floor. But it's probably inverted.
So he turns left and it makes a bunch of noise. I pull into the right lane and he's in the left lane(two-lane road) as we go down Cornell. We get to that light that earlier I had tried turning right on, but there was no street there. So we're stopped there. He's looking all macho and shit. So I think I'll see how good his imprezza is :o. Well the light turns green and I just smoothly accelerate and my fucking '84 Cavalier out accelerates his fuck ass imprezza. I was A) Staying within speed limits B) getting a moderate speed because Ray Circle was only like 2blocks and I would have to slow down to make the Right turn. When he say that his pussy Imprezza was losing he had to gun it and it made a bunch of noise and he zoomed past me as I made the right. But my $450 cavalier just got +1 testicles :p. Over how ever much his lame imprezza cost him. Also my Cavalier is noisey, but his was just outlandish. Mine is "old car noisy" his is "fag noisy".
So I turn right onto Ray circle, this would actually have been a left turn if I was going in the direction that Yahoo gave me. Yahoo told me to take a right, but in actuality I should have taken a left. Yahoo is a slut. Never trust anything it says. Finally I see the NW Regional Edu Sevices District office. Yiah!. I park the car. Butterflys sorta in stomach because this is a big step for Klinky :P. I am "being productive" and it was hell to get out there, but I made it finally. I was 10mins after 9:30, but fuck it. They should give it to me anyways. I thought.
I go in there. I talk to the "nice" receptionist. I say " I am here to register and pay for my GED test". She tells me "The lady who does this is not in this week. She won't be in until next week. Please come back next Tuesday". Then she WALKS OFF. :o So I am like "so I come back and pay for it next tuesday", as her voice gets distant "Yah".
>:O >:O >:O >:O >:O >:O
So I go back out to the car cursing myself for time wasted. WASTED. I should have done it last week. But I didn't. So now I guess I wait until next week or I go the 25miles out to the other place. -_-
Atleast I know where it's at. This journey though took me past my moms house, Stream International & Norm Thompson. All of which annoy the fuck out of me! Yiah! -_-.
Oh well, I stuck by it and did it and it sucked that it didn't work out. But I'll try again next Tuesday and I'll succeed. :O

Hello all,
Once again it's time for Gabriel's rant-o-lot theatre.
I don't know what I want to rant about today. Actually I am pretty happy. I got my juice and my cookies. Cranberry-Raspberry. :O If god came down and said "Gabrielth, I giveth you divine powers to recreath my powers liketh Bruce Almighty, in threatres now, but you musteth give up thyne blessed juice drink CranRaspberreth" I would tell him to shove it.
I've been talking about God alot in my journals. In a joking manner mainly. Since ROFLs I don't believe in a God, but I like to use him in stories. Blah blah blah.
Anyways, life goes on. Just the facts that :
There was no reason to goto war.
There were no Weapons of Mass Destruction.
Haliburton has won major army contracts since Bush n' Friends got into office.
Cheney is getting massive pay outs from Haliburton.
Cheney used to be the CEO of Haliburton.
The problem we have is that if some whacko shoots Bush. You still have to deal with fatso Cheney. Cheney doesn't go out much. He's the shadowy fatman who hides behind a brick of cheese.
I don't get what their plan is. Most likely it's to amass such wealth that they become more powerful or something. Money = power. But they have to keep it balanced. Keep large sums of money in their pocket, but have it spread out amongst the masses. That way there is a desire for money. Of course there is never enough and the people who have it have the most power because everyone desires it. Money buys things, money is power, people want power.
Money and this society, or really any society creates need. Need for something. Man drive is the need for power. To be your own boss. Or to have some semblance of independance. People don't like to have someone behind their backs pulling the strings. No many teens liked the rules imposed by their parents. They break free and go live on their own. The thing is their parents are replaced by Work & The Police & Society. I am going to admit that living alone is a hell of alot better. But living alone is not so great in this society. If you get along with your parents, and you can save a considerable amount by doing so. Do it, becuase this society does not really promote living on your own.
I guess some could say it's the economy, but the society created the economy and this society wants to keep things the way they are. It's too much trouble to change things. Too many people like the way society is. You can go out and get your house and your SUV, you can claw your way to the top in some lofty position. Aren't you gratifide. You got your car your kids your poster style wife and your plastic friends. Look at what you've done ^_^. Yiah. Not everyone is like that, but alot of people don't think they're like that but they really are. The thing is this society promotes it, they promote that idea. Consume and make as much excess as you can before either it's A)GONE or B)SOMEONE ELSE GETS IT!!!. Especially B) , you better get it before someone else does, because there's not enough of it. Refer to my point above about creating need.
Society does have it's benefits. We have had major medical and technical breakthroughs thanks to this society. But this society limits itself as well. This society likes to blame things on not being cost effective. Renewable energy sources? Too much money! Electric/Hydrogen/Alternative energy cars? Too much money! Too much power lost! Guess who would loose out if we converted mainly over to alternative energy. Uhh the President of the United States. He would lose money! Do we need to move over to alternative energy ? YES. A big yes! Coal power spews tons and tons of chemicals into the air. Some of it is radioactive even. Hyrdro likes to divert rivers and mess up ecology around the area. Also has a nasty habit of munching up Salmon and fish. Nuclear is like putting a cap on coal and codensing it into a slurry of waste that is amazingly toxic. Natural Gas is not that much cleaner. What other fuel technologies should we use instead? I am not sure. But so far all the ones we have that are cost effective are polluting. What if we invested the money these recent tax breaks have cost us or how about the 50BILLION dollar war, into alternative energy research. We need to find alternative energy and alternative ways of living because we'll D-I-E if we don't. No one thinks it will happen, but we'll all drive with our eyes closed as we kill ourselves I guess.

Anyways :/
Sleep time
~klinky

:O
2003-06-02 10:22:25
I am going to sleep now.
I always seem to do this. I am like z_z time for sleep Gabe. But like I think "OMG YOU SHOULD GO TO GAME-DEV.NET OR LIKE LOOK UP 3D STUFF YOU DUMMY". So I do and then I get to involved into it and I stay up late. I probably don't know half the concepts I am reading about. But it creates this sort of energy. It's like opening doors :O
:/
Anyways, I think my diet change from "large amounts of fat once a day" to "large amounts of fat multiple times a day" has been giving me more energy. Less tired, more wired ^_^. That's the way I like it. Of course it doesn't help when mom POUNDS ON MY FUCKING WINDOWS.
I told her she was a "sad human being" last night on the phone. I am SOB. HA what's that make her... OMFG. I am the worst son ever. But she's seriously evil. "The wild foilage in your side yard is going to get the house on fire" - "My neighbors have it out for me, I think ones a terrorist" - "My phone is being tapped" - "I was up last night and I took a shower @ 2am, this morning I woke up and I heard the land lady vacuuming LOULDLY in the hallway outside my door. They did it on purpose" - "We're headed to a depression, you should move to canada" - "SARS is spreading like wildfire" :/ YAK YAK YAK. She's like lives on BAD news and dread.
:< Anyways. I am suppose to drive her somewhere today. But I called her sad human being. So she's like mad at me. But I am probably going to end up giving her a ride anyways.
I've pretty much made up my mind that I am moving to Eugene. I am gonna hang out with my friend Joe down there. Kthulhu may move with me if Job Corp ever calls. If not, I'll be fine alone. It looks like I could probably get on @ the Pentagon Credit Union. Isnt' that suave and sexy. Yeah, no it sounds like a pain in the ass. But you get benefits and 10.50/hr!!! Which is good. Hopefully they would want a lazy part-time college student to work for them. Not sure :|
N-E-ways. Me and joe play lotsa basketball. Usually. We used to play it everday when he was down the block. I was still fat back then tho. ROFL. Well it was teh food I was eating or something. Or well, I hadn't contracted this horrible vomit phobia which killed my appietite or something. It was funny, like I hadn't been to the doctors in like 6months. I went in there to see if he had a clue what the heck was wrong with me. He gave me some "Prevacid" which helped out a bit, but later on gave me rocket diareaha.
Anyways, when they weighed me, I was 20lbs less. HA Imagine that :O. I don't think they thought much of it, because I guess I must have been 20lbs overweight =/. I had my arm poked for blood so they could see if I had this heiretary(sp?) ulcer causing diesease. Which I ended up not having.
Mom started bitching me out for some reason on the way home. I think it was her blaming the computer for my stomach ailment. She was so mad she pulled into a parking lot and told me to get out and walk home. This was a mile or two from home and like in a CHURCH parking lot. No one was there. But ! :O LOL. Would have been funny if she was like pulling into it yelling at me "Blah blah blah your computer is the problem I know it is, you're hunch- " "OMFG MY JESUS IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CA-" {CLUNK CHUNK KUCHUNK}. Jesus bits in the parking lot :O . That's so anti-christian. Anyways. She probably would have hit Jesus since she's a crappy driver too. Jesus. I am so horrible. I'll goto hell I guess and the devil will be like "You sad bad things about your mother that's why you will vomit for eternity!" X_X that would be horrible.
Anyways :|. My throat is getting sore, I need to sleep. My eyes are going to die or something. I look foreward to happy fun times. Learning about advanced mathmathetics and engineering a revolutionary Raytracing/Cel shading suite with advanced Physics, AI, Particle, Scripting & Shading engines. Advanced entity object editing ^_^ - KEKEKEKEKEKE. That's all a bunch of bull I put together. Well not really. It's just harder than it sounds =o I'll put it together tho! ^_^ It's my life goal.
