Random and Incoherent Thoughts

Riley was put down last night.

I am not sure what's harder in these situations, realizing someone will be gone forever, or seeing how it emotionally impacts everyone else. I thought I could maintain composure, but it was hard hearing my mom's voice break on the phone, and hearing that my brother, who had mentioned he wouldn't really feel anything if Riley had passed since he saw it coming, broke down harder than anyone else and even refused to go into the house. I almost didn't even want to go to bed last night. Lying in bed and thinking over everything wasn't a fun thing to do.

Death is a bittersweet event, for an animal or human being. Either you are happy they moved on since they were suffering, or you realize you took them for granted and look back on countless times when you could have done something different.

The little things in life really make a difference.

Life=fucking weird.

Borderlands is probably one of the most entertaining things I have played since Oblivion...and that's saying a lot coming from me.

"I'm Borderlands Barbie! I come with a pistol and pink rocket launcher mobile. I'm out to kill the evil boys of Pandora."

Sed Strat is a weekend ruiner and the cock blocker of all that is enjoyable and happy.

There are many times when I seriously ask myself..."What the fuck is this shit?" This is one of those instances.



This is pretty much a 15 year old boy saying some girl is "the one" and going to give the girl "everything she wants"...the kid probably doesn't even has his permit! This is ridiculous.

Who knew my two favorite people would come together as one? Toki is supposed of be modeled after Mikael Åkerfeldt (lead singer of Opeth).

I am happy.

Interesting temperature readings within a 2 hour span.

6:00 am: 98.6
6:30 am: 100.3
7:00 am: 99.6
7:30 am: 98.7
8:00 am: 99.9

I mentally can't do school anymore, shit, I mentally can't do calc anymore. My brain hurts.


On a different note: I don't know what is more annoying: mosquitoes or mosquito repellent. I say this because mosquitoes LOVE biting me. For instance if I go outside with shorts and a t-shirt (without repellent) for a good, ohhh 5 minutes I will most likely end up with about 10 bites. During the daytime its not as bad, but once the evening hits (like 4pm and after) its hell. Now, I do have bug repellant (the OFF! brand to be specific, although I think it really is the only big name bug spray on the market...)

Anyyywaayyy so I basically bathe in OFF! before going outside.

Back to the story--I went outside to play badminton with Mumsy and douse myself in OFF! and we're outside for about 20 minutes. Regardless of how much spray I put on I STILL ended up with two bites. What the fuck OFF! bugspray...seriously. Major slacking right there.

Now I am itchy.

This is how I see mosquitoes in my world:

I am more curious why there is a groundhog on the right hand side. Do they fear mosquitoes also?

This feels like deja vu of last summer.

Went to the Opeth/Enslaved show yesterday with AJ. My god do I love Opeth even more.

Currently it is 8am and I am sitting in class waiting for the teacher to show up and trying to write this with my iPhone. I am bothered. There is some Asian kid that keeps looking at me. When he does he smiles all goofy and he shakes his head in an awkward fashion. That is all.

Congrats Will on having your edit on the wiki article about Quadfest:


Lets just now hope it doesn't get fixed.

So the weekend...
I went on the IgMet field trip yesterday around nowhere Virginia and picked up a few rock samples. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I wasn't dying of the heat. Personally, I rather freeze than be burning up. I think this is why I could never live in the south. Dry heat, like in the southwest (Arizona, New Mexico, etc) I feel is more tolerable than the southeast since the south is not only hot, but also very very humid. I think I am a New England kind of person, but I do think the Northwest is really nice too.

I need to shut up about weather, and go do some hiking sometime soon.



Now to get off topic- this is relevant to my interests:

This was also brought up on the trip yesterday: how terrible Nickelback is. They make really bland songs that all sound the same and the lead singer's hair drives me crazy! Craig on the other hand said they weren't as bad as Fall Out Boy. So then came the question: What you would rather listen to: Fall Out Boy or Nickelback?
I think you know my vote on this one.

You know, people can annoy me, bother me or just completely frustrate me. However, one girl takes this to a new level and that is: spaz at the gym.
This girl comes in roughly the same time I do in the morning to use the elliptical next to me and we do the exact same program.
There is one big difference between us: I don't act like a fucking idiot on it.

First of all, she goes mad crazy on the machine. She like holds onto the bars weird and lets her legs go crazy, then she does this method of cocking her head back while running on it. Next she thinks it'd be "cool" to lip sing what she is listening to on her ipod. While it would seem like thats far enough to look a little weird, she also is very... I'll call it "expressive" while singing. In this case she uses her arms and hands to sing along as well. So while her legs are already distracting the rest of her is too.

What annoys me about all of this besides the obvious? She's right next to me...people might associate me with this crazy person. Secondly, I can constantly see her doing all of the above from the corner of my eye. Half the time I have to urge to do it along with her, hell I will throw my hands up when I hear the "Single Ladies" track on her ipod. I wonder if she'd appreciate my efforts to look like a total douche like she does.

Only in Blacksburg will it be sunny and 75 on Sunday and this morning be 21 and snowing.

(After texting about a song...)
Me: It's cool. So how've you been?
Dad: Ok.
Me: Why not awesome?
Dad: Because you aren't here.
Dad: Aren't I good at this shit?
Me: Well said sir.
Dad: Damn straight.

Pro: Got a lot of my work done before the weekend started and did well on my Bio test.
Con: I have about 2 exams plus quizzes every week till spring break.

Pro: Clark came to visit me for Valentines Day weekend.
Con: I had a nasty cold the entire time.

Pro: Took Nyquil to get rid of discomfort.
Con: Clark poked my face and pulled my ears to mess with my dreams while I was in a nyquil coma.

Pro: Nyquil helped take my symptoms away.
Con: I got so much drugged up sleep that now I am wide awake and probably will be for awhile tonight.

( So how about senior year... )

Life is awesome.

Me: I am a pansy.
Dad: That's MY gay flower.
