4 weeks :)

So I decided I should update; it's only been what, over a week? I don't update too much. As I'm writing this Melissa is over on my bed falling asleep, it's cute :) Today was 4 weeks for us too, so things seem to be going pretty well. I've spent a lot of time with her the past month, and I really like her. I don't know where things are going to go; I don't know where she wants them to go. Which is probably what worries me the most.. I don't want it to end up like my last relationship with someone close by did. But so far I'm liking whats happening a lot :) We'll have to see where it goes.. My one worry though is that at times we have every different views and opinions on things, and I don't know how that's going to affect things as time goes by We've just lounged and watched movies.. we've gone out bowling (I got 172! my highest score ever!), we've gone to some shows, we've driven to malls. I watched her play DDR, which she's pretty good at (definitely better than me) even though she won't admit it ;) I want her to set the pad up she has at home though so I can see if I can beat her! I even drove her and two of her friends to NYC in my tC this past week to see a show. Everything went well, and I even drove past SVA, my brother's college he'll be at in the fall, hehe. Somehow though I managed to drag back a 10 foot white tarp with me all the way from the city though. No wonder people were honking at me on the turnpike! We left it at WaWa. Melissa and I have just spent a lot of time together, and it's been fun :) I seem to have gotten her somehow hopelessly addicted to the GBA and to Zelda: Link to the Past. Oops :) At least she's enjoying it! (yes Melissa, this is the line that I got up to add and you thought I was crazy - you probably still do after reading it ;)) So has everyone enjoyed the snow? I know I have! ha! My tC's first snow fall, and I have pictures too to post at some point :) I helped Melissa dig out her car and a spot for mine, but something happened and they got covered up two days later, it sucks :( Oh, so Great Adventure opens at 10am March 25th! I'll be there! Kingda Ka is supposedly going to open April 23rd, with the coasters after dark for season passholders the day before, woo! It'll be nice to see Kingda Ka in two months though even if I can't ride it. I'll ride the heck out of the other ones before then :) They have talent auditions next Saturday though; maybe I can head into the park and see it then! So Sopranos production is supposed to start within the next few months for the final season. I can't wait! And r umors for this year's E3 are already sky high. Duke Nukem Forever to be shown (haha), TF2 (hahaha!), Nintendo Revolution, Game Boy Evolution (to run GC games themselves or games equivalent to them), PS3, XBox 2.. woo! THE HYPE! So I got accepted to both DeVry and Rider. I got a $5,000 scholarship to Rider but the school is $22,000+ a year compared to $10,000 and under for others. So the scholarship doesn't entice me to go there much. I'm waiting to hear from Rowan and TCNJ. DeVry seems really good right now; especially since it's a more tech-focused school and they do co-op programs so I can get paid in the field I want to be in. Has anyone heard anything about the school? My computer has been down most of the week; it wouldn't turn on half the time, it would turn itself off and reset.. I bought a new power supply which kinda fixed the problem, but it was still turning off. After doing some digging I discovered that I had a driver issue that was causing it. I reinstalled all my drivers and so far everything is working. I'm addicted to Zelda: The Minish Cap on GBA. Once I take care of that I need to take care of some other GBA games, and hopefully some decent DS games will come out soon. Melissa and I have also been playing Zelda Four Swords on GC, which is fun :) I got Battle for Middle Earth for the PC; just more things that I have to play there, lol. I need to play World of Warcraft again. On the school front.. My Maya class is great; I love doing Maya! The 3 online classes are good. Calc 2 is a pain in the ass, and I'm not sure what I want to do about it. On the work front.. not much is happening. Someone find me a new job. I have a piece of paper in front of me loaded with little things I need to remember to do.. from homework to burning cds to finding a new job. Oh, as for my cat Indiana, since everyone is probably on the edge of their seats waiting to know... he pooped the string out! woo!

Most. Visitors. Ever. And Stringy Butts. And Stuff

Yes yes, some of you know of all the websites I've run over the years (and the 6 uncompleted ones I currently have). TF Headquarters years ago was by far my most popular.. until now. I got a bill in my email today from my free webhost. I have to pay a whole 22 cents for going over usage. But that means www.gainsider.com is my most popular site by far, transferring over 5GB of data in one month! I looked at the stats today, and from the day George and I first put pictures up (12/3) until today, we have had 13,234 unique visitors and 68,090 page views! AMAZING! The website was thrown together for the Kingda Ka pics, but now that we have a breather until March 25th it's going to get an overhaul. Oh, if anyone wants to see it, here is the official video to show the topping off of Kingda Ka Oh.. I have a cat problem. Yesterday my cat Indiana threw up a few times. I went to check on him again after work and I picked him up and he scooped out of my hands and ran upstairs. Melissa looks at him and goes "he has a string coming out of his butt!" and I didn't believe it. So I went to see and sure enough, it looked like he did. I told my brother to come out and see and he pulled on the string and the cat let out a big MEOW and ran under the bed. So I called the vet and they said to bring him in. So my mom met Melissa and me at the vet and they looked at him. They pulled another 2 ft of string out of his butt, totalling 4ft 2in. They said they had to cut it because it got tight, so there's still some in there. They hope he poops it out, but it can tie up the intestines pretty bad and cause pain, so if it doesn't work itself out he needs surgery to get it removed. The string is from outside and it held up my tree. My mom knows he was playing with it but didn't think he ate it.. and how can a cat eat 4-6ft of string anyway? Work is the usual.. nothing ever changes. I have an interview tomorrow for DeVry.. why they want an interview for me to go to the college who knows. Speaking of colleges I started Mercer again today. Calc 2. I'm taking 5 classes: Calc 2 and 3D Computer modeling (w/ Maya, Yay!) are at Mercer. A History, english, and marketing class are online. This is all to give me more credits to transfer with. Calc 2 is going to be terrible. I originally thought it was me since I almost failed Mayle's class in 12th grade and failed my first time doing calc at mercer. But then I had a really good teacher when I did calc again, and even though I missed 4 classes, didn't do any homework, and played with my Pocket PC most of the time, I understood what he taught and got a B! So maybe it really is the teacher. And my teacher this semester is an anal grad student. He's so anal that we can't write problems out on paper side by side, and we can only use one side of the paper when we do work to hand it in. Also, he's under the impression that we already learned some integration (whch we didn't - my professor especially stopped before that because it was calc 2 stuff), so he breezed through some bullshit review today and now I'm already lost. I'm going to have to learn integration agan myself to make sure I know what's going on. And my history class doesn't start till Feb, my marketing class isn't online to do yet, my english class is online but nothing is up.. and i don't start my modeling class till Monday. I got Zelda Minish Cap for GBA.. did I say that already? It's pretty good. I'm waiting for more DS games to come out. Still kinda working on WoW and HL2. Need to do something with them when I have time. I decided to watch the Battlestar Galactica series on SciFi on Friday and it seemed good, so I bought the DVD for the miniseries (along with Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars since I missed that on TV) to watch it. Hope it's good. It seems to be. Oh I got a new printer finally, yay. The HP 6110 All-in-One, which I've wanted for years now. It does everything, and I'm happy with it so far :) I've also been setting up wireless networks and stuff. I cleaned up Melissa's computer so it runs better, and when her router comes in I'm going to put it up so she can go wireless on her laptop. You know, we got new price things at Staples for tech support and they charge $99 for one wireless device install? CRAZY! I need to work on getting my own business going. I need to get A+ certified though :( Most of the time lately I've been with Melissa, which is a good thing :) We've done a lot of stuff; like just lounging and falling asleep.. watching movies (The Village was bad, ick! Dodgeball was crazy but weird! I'm trying to watch Donnie Darko but I fell asleep. Same with Riddick), making funnel cakes ;), playing games (Zelda Four Swords on GC, hehe), and just hanging out and going places and having a good time. Things seem to be going well with her, and I'm glad :) We'll see where it takes us. It's been over two weeks now, and things seem to be going strong. My last close relationship like this ended pretty badly and pretty fast, but it didn't start out anywhere like how this one is, so it should be good, I hope :) I really like her, and I really like what we have. I just don't want her to get sick and bored of me :( That's what I'm most afraid of. I love spending time with her but I'm afraid I'll do something wrong and it'll be over. I hope not. Well for the rest of the evening I'm going to be doing misc stuff around my room (school stuff probably, and websites, movie organization, cleaning, etc), just waiting for Melissa to get out of work :)

An Update (SUPPOSED TO BE POSTED ON FRIDAY)

So I'm just lounging for the evening while Melissa is out with some of her friends so I thought I'd update. It's been a great two weeks with her so far, and I'm glad we started dating. I hope things continue to go really well. I'm going to be seeing her later and probably for a majority of the weekend as well, yay! So what else is new? Work and starting Mercer on Tuesday.. yay. Waiting for responses on what colleges I got into. Right now I'm watching Battlestar Galactica on SciFi, seeing how it is. Doesn't seem too bad so far. I should probably go buy the miniseries and watch that. Oh, so Six Flags opens on March 25th! Kingda Ka won't be open until the end of April, but it was topped off!. Oh so I got the new Zelda game for GBA, it's pretty good so far. I'm slowly working on other GBA, DS, GC, and PC games. Hmm, what else? Not sure.. waiting for Melissa to call.

testing

i am at work currently but im attempting to post from my cell phone. i hope it works!

Fun :)

Ya I haven't updated too much. Mainly because I've been with Melissa a lot :) She's off taking a shower right now so I thought I'd update hehe. She can read it later ;) If you read her journal you can see what we've been up to, But ya, in the past week we've seen each other every day. Now I know that can't continue most likely, but it has been nice. We've just hung out; we've gone to see A Series of Unfortunate Events and Meet the Fockers. We've watched tv and movies at home. We've relaxed. We've gone out to the mall, the Cheesecake Factory, LBI, and more. It's been a lot of fun with her the past week, and I'm glad things are working as they are. Hopefully they will keep going.  So this week I've been working.. and I got everything done for the colleges that I need to, except FAFSA. So now I'm just waiting to here back. I start Mercer again in a little over two weeks. I can't wait :-/ Well that's about it, I'll update again soon!

12/31

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year, which I haven't yet. Why not? Eh, I've been.. busy ;) And on that note.. well I have a new girlfriend, who I've been enjoying spending time with since New Year's Eve :) Her name is Melissa. And, well, since it's late and she said I should get to sleep you can read about everything on her LiveJournal :) I'm sure I'll type my fair share of things but that's a start. Oh, and I've officially applied to the following: Rowan, TCNJ, Rider, and DeVry. I need to get Steinert and Mercer to send transcripts but the applications themselves are done, yay! Now that that's out of the way.. that was really bothering me.. I have work, school, and Melissa to focus on. And reading and games in my free time. And ya know.. it's SO much nicer having a girlfriend who lives close by. Wow. It's something i've never experienced before, and it's really nice. I can stay out late and get home quick ;) Well that's it. Must get sleep so I can go to work, then see Melissa, and get more Kingda Ka pics!
