Month: April 2005

  • -Sunday, April 24, 2005
    Ok, just messin with my sweeeeet azzz computer this morning. later I played some UC2 untill I had to go to work.
    boy, what a day today was.
    On CS: Source  my Frame Per Second is in the 90′s. and thats with
    1600×1200 resolution and all the graphical settings to the max. On the
    initial default settings I got close to 200 frames per second, but
    thats with like just minimal settings.
    Work was ok, for once on a Sunday Jon wasnt there. At first I kind of
    thought, oh no, he’s not here, now I gotta pick up all the extra slack.
    but It was a pretty slow day, so no worries there.
    and a nice break, The moon was full, and for one of the very few times
    since last month, the sky was not full of clouds. So I could see the
    moon and some stars in the sky. noticed the big dipper, for the first
    time in like forever. While I was stareing the moon, a firework went
    off in the air. I was all, “hOOooo” haha. Then I saw a shooting star.
    fudge I gotta go to sleep, originally I was hopeing that getting a
    computer that isnt laggin 24/7 would help me get things done fast, but
    it just makes me waste more time…. for instance, I just spent like a
    good hour and a half messing around on Counter-Strike. boy, I love that
    game, but I was getting pwnd. hey, it was my first time playing CS in
    like over a year and a half, or something like that.
    Maybe I’ll start getting things done faster after I get my setup all complete, and in my room, arwwwwh!

    and I want it in, cause I feel you creaping in. What I found, in this
    town, I’m headed for a breakdown. Whats that sound, your so loud, I’m
    heading for a breakdown. – Breakdown – Breaking Benjamin – that was just going through my head while I was on my break.
    H/M: really good/haha, I’m to happy about something

    (OK, you know its time to go to sleep when… your computer starts
    running those anti-virus, spy ware clean up stuff, that they schedual
    to run when they expect you to be sleeping.)

    I got up at like 7am this morning. I dont know why, I could have easily
    fallen back a sleep for a couple more hours, but instead I just got up.
    For no particular reason, other than risking sleeping in for like my
    whole day. since I had work at 1.
    but anyways, I was just wasteing time on the computer and the xbox.
    Work was work. I was tired today, I wish I could have just had about an hour or two just to lay down.
    OooH Oh, I finnally saw the new nickel today. Its a 2004 Nickel that
    Mino found in the theatre and gave it to me. I dont know, it seems
    differant. well, duh, thats cause it is differant. well the edges seem
    a little more smoother, and it seems lighter, almost makeing it seem
    kind of smaller. and that luis and clark boat on the back of it, thats
    gonna take some time getting used to.

    came home, and my computer is there in my room. I just took it out of
    the box, it seems sweet, I didnt hook it up yet or anything. the only
    gripe that I have about it right now is that theres only 1 unused
    expantion slot on the back of the case. and thats all ready reserved
    for my TV Tuner. so I dont really have any more expantion slots. and I
    dont know what they are for, but in the box with everything else it had
    these two differant things that would go in the expantion slots.

    Tomorrow, I got Cartoons and messing with my computer on my to-do list, before I have to go to work.

    ok, so this will be like one of the last entries that I’ll be makeing
    on this P.O.S. computer. as my new computer is supposed to arrive
    today. but I gotta work today, so I wont have time to hook it up. and I
    still dont got no monitor, thanks to my mom who continues to pull the
    “lets look for it at CompUSA”  B.S. . I think I’ll just hook it up
    to this monitor
    out here, for now.
    anyways, I had school and work today, it was both the usual, boreing….

    Oooh, and after work, I got to see Kung Fu Hustle. Thats a pretty good movie.

    ok, so its 420, so of course I’m X’d up…
    but anyways….
    RAWHAHAHA!!! I GET MY COMPUTER ON FRIDAY!!!!!
    They sent me a invoice with the prices for all the parts. and it said
    that my AMD Athlon 64 4000+ cost $1499. I fliped out when I saw that.
    But I guess thats where they throw in all the additional fees that they
    didnt put on the invoice. like for the heatsink and fan, and … but
    wait, no, thats in there with the processor, well anways, at least for
    what ever they charge for putting it together, and then what ever else
    they gotta add to give them self some profit.
    but I’m also a little ticked off about how the day after I ordered it, the computer is 97 bucks cheaper.

    I can’t wait to be able to burn cd’s again. I’m gonna pirate some hXc cd’s just so I can play it in the car and irritate my dad.

    RAWWWWHHHH!!! I can’t wait to smell my Processor, RAM, MotherBoard, or
    maybe even my Video Card, frying due to my stupidly insane OVER-CLOCKING!  -yes, I am a idiot.

    changed it back to Congo when that scene came on, it gave me quite a
    laugh.

    fucking dirt bag”. haha. awh, that guy’s lucky I had my cd player in my
    hands and I was in a good mood. nah nah, I think I’m lucky that I wasnt
    paying attention to him and after I realized what he had said, he was
    like pretty much gone. Cause “One on one, they won’t look you in the
    eye, but when the pack’s together it’s a battle cry.” yeah, It would
    have been 2 on 1 and ya…..

    ok, So its one of those days once again that starts with the letter T,
    so that means I had school today. It was ok. I got to school at 7:30,
    half an hour late. but I don’t care about being late to class anymore,
    since I’m gonna fail anyways. But, It seems as If the English teacher
    is gonna give me the chance to not fail, and to make up the work, and
    even maybe get it done over the summer. and She’ll just give me either
    a no grade or an incomplete right now for the end of this semester. Oh
    well, now I gotta go and talk to her after class on thursday.

    Fudge, There is not one good place to get games from. GameStop is a
    freggin Rip off, priceing MC3 at 54.99. and Sam Goodie hardly ever gets
    their games in on time. and now GameRush, what a bunch of freggin
    idiots they got working over there.
    I called up GameRush after school and asked the guy if MC3 was in. he
    said he just had it for Rentals only and to buy it wont be untill like
    wednesday or thursday. but later, I went down there and there was a
    whole bunch of copys of the PS2 ver. there on the counter. I asked the
    guy if he had the Xbox version in. It seemed like he didnt even know
    that an Xbox version existed. But ya, the xbox ones were in a box that
    they didnt get to yet, and instead of just opening it right then so I
    could buy it, they tell me to F’n come back in a hour. Its like WTF!
    just open the F’n box and give me the F’n game, don’t make me go home
    and comeback later just because your too F’n stupid and lazy.
    So, what did I do, like a good lil biatch I left, and as soon as I got
    home, I called them, and they said it was in. so then I leave to go
    back.
    end rant.

    also, I finally bought the Minor Threat – complete discography CD. yeah
    yeah, you ain’t Straight Edge untill you got a Minor Threat album.
    haha. Its a pretty good one too, I was playing it in the car and my dad
    was getting really irritated at it, it was great.

    Well, thats about it for today. tomorrow I’m finally getting digital
    cable in my room. now I can watch TV in peace, with out haveing to deal
    with anyone else.
    and in other news, it seems like my computer may be ordered on Thursday.

    nothin much. just the usual. school and work.
    both same old same old, boreing boreing boreing.
    Kind of got busted small kine, at work cause myles said he thinks the
    checkers were there, and they watched Upside of anger. and asked me if
    I did any theatre checks at all for that one. told him no. I was stuck
    at the podium while Herbert was on break, but I didnt tell him that.
    anyways, Blockbuster’s Game Rush store is my new place to buy games,
    cause they actually have the right price on their games, not like Game
    Stop. and the value they give you for your trade ins are more than
    gamestop and their used game prices are lower too.
    So midnight club 3 will be 49.99 at Game Rush, while its 54.99 at Game Stop.
    haha. Suck on that, Game Stop. Kablam In Ya Face!
    Uh, I so hate this computer, and because of all the stuff I gotta put
    up with this thing, I have no problem with the thought of blowing like
    $3,700 on a freggin sweet azz comp. Just as long as I will never ever
    again have to put up with any of the crap that I get from this P.O.S.

    classes, english and religon, then I waited around untill like 12 for
    my mom to pick me up.

    I got up at like 9am this morning, I was still kind of tired, and didnt
    feel like trying to go back to sleep for just about an hour or so.
    there wasnt much to do, I just wasted my time on the computer, and then
    after my mom got up, she took me to some place for to get a computer.

    I didnt really wanna go, but I just went for her sake. and of course,
    with her around, I had to play the “silent game” and didnt say much to
    the guy about what I wanted. It was funny, how she was trying to talk
    to the person about some stuff that she had absolutely no idea about
    what it is.
    then I just came home and wasted more time, playing xbox, but I had a nice time, none the less…

    uh, I can’t stand how anoying my dad can be. just like tonight he was
    like, “why do you place the X’s on your hands?” Is it because of XBox?
    Does it mean skulls? cause you wear that skull braclet now.”  I
    wish he’d just be quiet for once and just leave me alone.  But at
    least, today, he called to get me digital cable in my room. yay! then I
    can watch TV without ever haveing to be bothered from him again!
    and my mom just cant seem to grasp the concept that my cousins/her
    nephews, are freggin pot heads and I don’t wanna hang out with them or
    go places with them.

    today was my older sister’s birthday, and also my cousin’s birthday. but I didnt tell either of them happy birthday.
    woke up at like 7:09 this morning cause had to go to a meeting for work
    at 7:45. it was boreing as usual. and I lost my wallet durring the
    meeting, it fell out of my pocket when I sat down. but when went back
    to work laters, I got it back.
    then came home, went on the computer, and then played xbox, untill I had to go to work.
    work was ok. Just another usual slow sunday. I just wish I remembered
    to bring my cd player with me to listen to on my break. uh, my break
    was pretty boreing, more boreing that my usual sunday breaks. and awwh,
    the sky has been cloudy for like a week and a half now, come on, I
    wanna see some stars and the moon…
    picked up my paycheck thats like almost 2 weeks old. 372, for like 62
    hours. I thought it was gonna be more, but Its this paycheck that comes
    in on tuesday thats gonna be the sweet one.
