Alright, here I go...

I've been spending the past... oh, four months planning for what is becoming an annual trip to A-kon, last year it was just me and four other guys that went and this year we were planning on having a bunch more people go, however one particular person keeps throwing wrenches into the entire plan and so I keep getting glared at as stupid and a liar due to being the person who is organizing the whole thing. Now about three sets of parents are on my ass, and everyone I know might turn on me due to everyone dragging their ass enough that we might not be able to reserve everything before it all gets sold out. Not to mention that I've been indirectly called an unorganized idiot due to 'no results' which is all because these people won't pay me the money I need to reserve the crap!!!

And so we're having problems with our cable provider. Again. This time a past-due bill costing more than a month's bill suddenly appeared. Even though we pay our bill each month. You wouldn't believe some of the excuses I heard. In the end my mother ended up having to pay a fraction of it so we could continue getting service, which, in turn, ate right into the funds that I had planned to use within the next forty-eight hours to get the preliminaries done regarding one of the inventions I'd like to make. So that went right out the !@#$ing window after months of planning and saving.

With what's left I decided that I'd get some soft-serve ice cream later, since I haven't had any in years and it's be a nice highlight after yet another farce.

Turns out someone in my computer class stole the end of a $50 dollar cable, and until the person that did it admits it and pays for his heinous crime, we get NO games, NO Internet, and NO music. So there's gonna be some ass-kickage at some point.

Juuuust lettin' ya know.

Keaton's day so far has been comprised of epic win...

gets to school, finds its a seminar day, ( a day where the first 42 minutes of school are wasted for no reason.) and then when he gets to gym he gets yelled at for still not having 'gym teacher's diet of choice' award. (he hates me because i am a vegetarian and very close to anemic.), i get hit in the face and have a bloody nose during gym and yeah...i learn my friend that NEVER had shown interests in anime/manga, suddenly reading 'Loveless.' and I was horribly appalled. ( he was never showing yaoi-interest BEFORE.) second hour, went alright. 3rd hour like second never posed issues. around 4th hour my foot started to hurt badly ( by the time i got home a blister had formed, so i had to go out and buy new shoes ^_^) in fifth hour i manged to score ( an epically hilarious grade of) a 4.5/30 on a test. 6th hour went great, it began to rain and thunder. (<3) 7th hour inhaled because we did two sheets of math notes... N equals square root of A times the square root of B....BALRGH, then goes and tells us tomarrow we won't do notes, we will just do math ALL HOUR.

after i got home, i immediately took a shower. and my mom told me to get dressed and we went out to eat at a semi-nice restaurant, but everything they served to us was either changed, or sold out. i decided to try something new, and it sucked. then my mom decided to drag us around wal-mart for a couple (hundred) hours. (remember about how i talked about new shoes?) by the time we got out of wal-mart i was limping from the blister pain. and then we went over to grandma's house. ( over the river and through the woods to grandmammys house we go.) and everything sort of tied itself together and finished up with me driving home and finially getting a chance to type up a story my french teacher wanted me to type WEEKS ago.

Momoko vent petty complaint! Whee!

Anyway, I just ordered out tonight, and got myself a Coca-Cola bottle. I haven't followed the bottle designs much or anything but they seem to have altered it some. In addition to the much smaller bottle cap for whatever reason, the bottle is now shaped differently. Now the bottom part of the plastic bottle has some sort of marking on it that the logo. Yay, as if you didn't already know this is a Coca-Cola bottle from the cap or the relatively useless paper wrapping around it, they just HAD to make sure that the thing you're carrying is KNOWN to be such a bottle! Now, I can understand WHY it's done, for the same reason fast food chains or whatever make specific logo/product placements on your drink so that when you're sipping that last bit of root beer on your way out of the mall, people know you've been to the food court's taco stand. But it's just becoming more and more obvious. You might as well just order a giant ad sign to go with it. What next, the soda fountain drinks will be separate for each type of drink so people will know you've been drinking Mountain Dew instead of plain water? Oh wait... (KFC/Pepsi drinks...) never mind. This was not meant as some complaint that commercialism is evil or something of the sort, it's just that I find some of the routes they're taking lately to be more and more obvious...

Not like I wanted to keep a plastic bottle lying around after I'm done with it anyway...

My video card just blew up...
The thing has been damn loud since I got it about half a year ago, but I didn't pay much attention to it due to constantly wearing headphones at my computer. This noise suddenly stopped a few days ago, I didn't pay it too much mind but this Sunday when I got back from my dad's house the thing is rattling like crazy. Apparently the heat-sink got too hot and warped so that the fan was brushing against the edge. I decided to live with this until I could afford a new card but just a few hours ago my computer shut off to keep from over-heating. Reached in to take out the card and the thing is burning up.

Oh, and also... I got it for my birthday last year, and my mother decided to buy it from a third party website instead of the manufacturer... so the card I've been using is a fake which means that 1. It was made worse which is the start of this whole mess and 2. The warrantee that most ATi products have doesn't apply to me considering that ATi doesn't make it.

And to top it all off I'm going to have to reinstall IE to try and get a driver for my integrated graphics to work properly >_<!!!!!

wewt for a day off tomarrow,

today went like this:

woke up feeling hungry but could eat cause i had to get ready for school, i looked around and nearly missed the bus trying to find my I-pod, when i get to school i talked with my friends for what seemed like forever till the bell rang. {sarcasm] then i got to spend a lovely time in gym class being lectured about how unless humans eat meat they shouldn't even be considered human [/sarcasm] not to mention the fact i have the most annoying jackass of a human in my gym class that deserves to be shot in the back of their face. second and third hours were fine, during fourth hour we had a paper that was supposed to be done but i didn't do it because i wasn't feeling particularly well and went to the bathroom where i took my glasses off and began to re-adjust them when the temple-piece broke off, and i am going to have to replace my favorite frames for around $130-$230 during 5th hour i got treated like i was nothing more than an overgrown monkey because my teacher hates me for some unknown reason.

My Step Sister came home from Georgia recently and she brought along her dog Bently. Now I don't know what type of dog Bently is but he is one major pain in the ***! When he isn't tormenting my poor black lab Maximus he is either making off with random junk in my room, disturbing the peace or making a mess of the place. Any attempt to get him to stop has poor results as according to my Step Sister he does not understand the meaning of the word 'No' or 'Stop It'. She doesn't even do much to control him anyways. If it were up to me I'd send his Royal Pain in the *** to Timbuktu if it weren't for the fact that:

A) My Stepsister would chew me out for laying a hand on her 'precious' Bently
B) I don't want to get the SPCA on my case
C) I don't think I could afford the postage... Maybe I'll just settle for Cleveland instead O_o

The world seems determined to rip away what matters most to me again...

commence spitting and head twisting in circles.

My dad whom i love most dearly, deserves words that doesn't need to be said in public. The laptop that I use most of the time ended up broken when someone broken the screen joint and now he said that we (me and my two brothers) are not allowed to use the laptop or his desktop and he continued to complain about he isn't made of money (when amazingly he has $ 41,000 tucked away in his bank). He forced me to go off to some week long camping trip where i worked as a nurse in the medical lodge where If i wasn't being viciously attacked by the kids, i was being viciously attacked by the bugs.
