I added comments and they work, ya hoo!!!

(or should I say the ability for folks to add comments if they wish)

oh and quiz time:


A different quiz, what strange type of person are you?

brought to you by Quizilla
Well a week later here's how my life has been...Basically I'm glad I'm staying here even longer then normal that way by the time I leave I'll hate it soo very much I will never ever come back. First problem: being the only christian in a family of agnostics, some of which are being very antagonizing. Second: my sister and her bf living in my old room, of which they cleaned out and threw away most of my stuff (I wonder what they did with the C4 primers and other misc explosives?). Third: being away from sara.

Christmas was strange...other then not having the house decorated at all, my sister decided to throw a fit that morning (because she didn't want to wash her dinner dishes from the night before) she stormed out when our grandmother arrived to exchange presents and didn't show up again till 8pm. What a wonderful family I have now... am I the only normal one? So later that day me and my aunt went over to her parents house and did christmas there (much more normal, tree and everything) and it was funny enough but her mother said that since things were so weird out-here she wouldn't be surprised that the next time anybody here hears about me it'll be for a wedding. Ironically I think that may actually be true. Of course I still need to talk to somebody about that :)

Actually I talked for the first time for somebody I hadn't talked to in a long while (mostly it felt like I was being ignored) but she showed up in the chat room I was in and decided she needed to know all about my life now, I'm fairly glad that I've already had experiance with a girl that acted similarly so I won't get distracted...actually this has helped me because there were some doubts in my mind (see previous post) but now those are completely gone, now what remains I guess is either a realization or else pity for an individual that has no idea of what they've done, or did in the past. I just don't take that well to being played with when it comes to serious matters.

Its interesting to note that all the things that I've had to deal with of late seems to come from one particular period in time, summer of 2001. I wonder if I was in a very specific mindset at the time or maybe it was a nice test placed before me, where the groundwork would be laid and then the fruitation or ulitmate test of those would then creap up later in life nearly 2 years later. And now I don't particularly care, I've got before me the chance for what I've always dreamed of and have prayed for and I am dedicated to not be distracted from them. I am not going to screw this up.

Well I haven't posted in a while, which I guess isn't that unusual given my habits of procrastination, but lets see how my life has changed in the last little bit. So I heard back from Braun, which is a good thing.

So right now I'm back in california, I wonder why it always seems just as good things happen to me I'm forced to make decisions between two or more good things... or maybe its that I've been on the lookout for certain things that as soon as I get them I can't break myself out of the mode that I think I'm missing an oppertunity...maybe they're just god's tests.

Just when I thought life couldn't be any more strange... and day like yesterday happens. So the highlights of the day are waking up 13 minutes before lab was going to start, nearly falling on my face because I didn't realize my leg was still asleep. Having my picture on the front page of the newspaper and misc. people telling me about it the whole day. While there was work and different other annoyances of the day the evening was somewhat interesting also, I got to talk to sara for a while :) of course my day couldn't end there... no...a guy from the other side of the hall came down to procrastinate so we talked for a while, then a guy from downstairs came up for help on his homework, and then another guy (from skinner) came over to ask my how to knot a tie and also my opinion on his outfit for this weekend ('hot date' formal) because I quote: "..you have style.."

I find that kind of shocking... I never thought I did... Well I need to do now is go to get a few signatures on a form, turn in my break key, talk to the prof for philosophy, and write a paper... I wish I would hear back from Braun, only possitively though of course

Top two songs right now:
