12:16 pm	Today I'm feeling a bit better, just trimmed my gotee a bit. Gotta make sure I don't let it grow too much. Luckily my parents gave me an electric beard trimmer for one of my gifts last Christmas. Gonna be working from 2 till sometime tonite today, but it's not that bad since I get the next two days off. Technically it saying I'm working 2 to "closing", but that always just means whenever we can clean the whole store from the horrifying destruction people cause in it. We do have new employees now, but they are mostly minors, and can't work that late. Wimp minors, most of them stay up into the morning in the summer anyway. Exscuses to get out of work, says I! In other news, I've been playing a lot of Maple Story lately. This is the website http://www.mapleglobal.com/ it's a really cool free MMORPG. I plays in 2D, kind of like Castlevania:Symphony of The Night, just with a look more like Ragnarok Online. I play on the Scandia server. I still play WoW of course, since hitting level 60 I've been farming Scarlet Monastary for the new Scarlet Tabard item drop the trainees give. Been moving up in the Battlegrounds ranks decently fast as well. Another upnote, I look forward to getting the bigger room in the apartment. My stuff doesn't really fit in here, and I have a few more boxes being held on to at my parent's house in the shed. My dad wants the space back, heh. It's also been cooling off lately. I like the cold better than the heat. In the cold you can always put on more to warm up, in the heat you can only take off so much before you run out and your still cooking. One last note: people I know are finding girlfriends that seem atleast as geeky/into video games as I am. I wonder where they keep running into them. I keep finding girls that just dabble, and are only borderline geeky. Have to be someplace... (Comment on this)

9:22 am	Just woke up about an hour ago, and in about 23 minutes I need to get ready to leave for work. Luckily today I just work till 3. I like the days where I don't work closing, or the weekend, or a holiday. Heheh, I've learned to dread those days, used to like them, but now my favorite days of the week are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday during the school year because the store isn't overcrowded/understaffed. I know a lot of my entries end up being about work, but you should try it some days. there are times when I literally think armed forces might be less stressful. Downside is that I would have to abandon everything I've ever owned, and not see anyone again if I joined. I don't have the money for storage fo rmy things, and I know for a fact that keeping in touch with the people I know would eventually fade out, especially if I was sent overseas. My dad said that you eventually lose most of your friends as you get older anyway, but it would also mean my family. I hardly ever talk to my brother anymore since he joined the army, I just hear about what he's been doing from my dad. So far it's looking like I either keep being on the verge of a nervous breakdown every day, or I join the armed forces and just disapear. My family literally has no job connections outside the military, and even if I wanted to look for other job I can't because I'm almost always working during buisiness hours and just trying to calm down on the days I do get off from work On another note, aside from the rant I'm sure many people just skip. I'm doing decently ok, my back is feeling a bit better. Ed's picking me up from work later to hang out for awhile. I don't work till 2 tomorrow, so I'll have some free time today. Although sometimes, other than my room mates I wonder why I bother. Not many people talk to me much, and they seem to like it that way. Well, aside from every so often in a blue moon I get a call from Matt or Ed. PS. I would update more often on LJ, but I realize there just isn't many people that pay any attention to it.

10:55 am	My life and Final Fantasy XI / WoW Not all that much has been going on lately. My girlfriend will be moving in soon, I've been working a lot, and also go tback into FF XI with the new expansion. I'm working on finding a PS2 Hard Drive though. If anyone knows someone wanting to sell one, that'd be cool. I have the PC version, and the PS2 discs and online adaptor. I just need a Hard Drive. I'll be playing it on Alexander server on my PC until I can get one though. My character on WoW is getting even closer to level 60 now. It's surprising how long I've had the game and not gotten there. Getting to go on tons of instances really makes the difference. My favorite is still Scarlet Monastary though. I wish it had a higher level range so I could just keep going in there. I don't really know anybody that plays FF XI anymore, otherwise I would see about getting a server transer or something. Finding parties to hunt with has been interesting. Oh yeah, and I replaced my copy of Devil May Cry 3 with the special edition. I must say, Virgil seriously rocks. (Comment on this)

12:35 pm	You scored as Winter. You are WINTER. You're more introspective, thinking deeply, feeling deeply. You love nothing better than to enjoy one on one time with those who are important to you. You are cautious, and sometimes second guess yourself. Dreams, though you have them, are a luxury, because life is not a plaything. </td> Winter 80% Summer 75% Fall 70% Spring 55% What Season Are You? created with QuizFarm.com (Comment on this)

8:54 am	Almost at a complete loss as to what I should make as a journal entry today. I'm about to head to work in a bit, not really all that much else happening today. Not that I have too much to complain about though, things flow the way they do in life, and all one can really do is try and be amused at what one can. The green will be coming back soon since spring is on the way. I look forward to seeing the green back on all the trees, I've been missing that. The forests and mountains are what I love most about living around here. I noticed at work lately that nobody sings the full version of the Toys R Us themesong, been finding that a little strange considering some there have been working at the store a lot long than I have. we have a new cashier that keeps swearing infront of little kids, I have a bet going with myself for how long she'll last. On an ending note, i've run out of things to type about for the moment. I just look forward to camping once the weather gets a bit warmer. (Comment on this)

1:57 am	I beat Bujingai for the first time through. My god that game kicks ass. the power struggles make the DBZ games look silly, and the ending was fantastic. Not much going on in other news. I might play Guildwars or WOW in a bit. Saving my hours on iRO for when I team with James. The expansion for Guildwars isn't too far off now, I really look forward to it. PS. Bujingai has new game plus option, and I still haven't unlocked even half of the contents. Still haven't found the soundtrack to it yet though anywhere. Not even for download.

11:03 am	Today is gonna be an interesting day. I'm gonna be working an 8 hour shift thankfully, but I don't get to work in R-Zone today. I hope the customers aren't total morons for the most part like yesterday. I had so many people come through that didn't seem to have aclue about much of anything in general. I did notice though that those kind of people multiply on the weekends, especially after 1 PM... In other news, I have Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday off this week, so I should be able to get some more things done. The number of girls I've seen come through the register in the last month that have about a combined IQ of about 75 is making me really depressed about finding the right girl that can hold an intelligent conversation with me...

9:41 am	Well, about to get picked up for work. I shall not return until sometime after 5:30, so I'll probably be home around 7. Atleast I have tomorrow off. One of these days off I have to get to filtering through my things to see what I don't need anymore. As it goes I have even less floor space than James, Jamie, and Howie. I only have the little patch to walk anywhere right next to the door so it can open, and then I have to crawl on my bed to get anywhere else. Atleast it's more room than the trailor I used to live in. I had fun RPing Dragonball last night, but I'm a little diapointed in myself for not getting any of Dragonquest 8 in yesterday, it's what I was looking forward to while I was at work. I should really check some thrift stores sometime to try and find a decent hard case for my guitar. Ed doesn't work tomorrow either, maybe I could check his work with him and see if there's one there he can get me a discount on. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

1:41 pm	I'm in a pretty decent mood today. Right now I'm listening to Metallica and various orchestrated songs I've collected. Later on I'm going to go see The Producers with Howie and Ed. They haven't seen it yet, but I'm more than willing to go to a second showing. I might play some more Castlevania in a bit on my DS. I also need to tak ecare of some laundry and straighten up a bit. YES!! My favorite Secret of Mana remix started! It's a medly of all the games music done is sort of a lament!! I'll be going now. I'll post more later if anything worth note occurs.

2:29 pm	Some kind of honesty survey thing 1.Honestly, where are you now? In my room trying to keep warm because the living room is very cold. 2.Honestly, have you ever failed a subject in high school? Yes, I failed biology twice because we had to do a group project that I refused to do with other people. I hate having to depend on the incompitence of others to get things done. I would much rather just do the entire project myself. 3.Honestly, what's on your mind? Keeping warm, I'm leaving for work in around an hour and a half and I work into the night. I always walk home, so I am looking forward to that part. I like walking. I'm also thinking about the works of Akira Toriyama and maybe sifting through boxes later to see what I need to sell. 4.Honestly, what is it that you really should be doing right now? Pretty much what I am doing. I could start sifting right now though. 5.Honestly, have you brushed your teeth today? I did that when I got up. I've always been paranoid about losing my canine teeth one day. 6.Honestly, who are your best friends in the world? I have a few close friends, although my best friend would probably be Edward. He's been my closes video game rival in skill since 8th grade, and he seems to understand me a lot of the time. 7.Honestly, who is the hottest person you know? Me!!! Mwahahahahaaa!! Oh yeah, and in video games, Millenia from Grandia 2... 8.Honestly, are you a good friend? Most of the time, heh. 9.Honestly, do you think school is important? It depends on if the person is worth the information, or is a waste of grey matter. 10.Honestly, what are your dreams mostly about? Me talking with myself, me going through various fantasy setting scenerios. Sometimes Sci Fi. 11.Honestly, who/what makes you happy most of the time? A full belly, keeping warm, playing a well made video game. Sparing with someone that knows what they are doing. 12.Honestly, what hobbies do you have? Playing and collecting video games, fencing, martial arts and walking if you can call that a hobby. 13.Honestly, what song are you listening to? Ride The Lightning from Metallica 14.Honestly, who do you want to see at this very moment? The producer of Final Fantasy. I want to ask him why he's lost his mind with the last few games. I got the demo for Final Fantasy 12... I am NOT amused.... 15.Honestly, do you have a deadly disease? I can BE a deadly disease!! 16.Honestly, do you hate someone right now? The cashiers that abandoned me during christmas rush and left me as the only register for two hours during peak shopping time. I also hate weak willed people, but that's nothing new. 17.Honestly, who/what do you wanna hug right now? I giant bag of jo jos... 18.Honestly, are you bored? I'm just relaxing before going to work. 19.Honestly, who do you wanna slap right now? Impatient shoppers that somehow think that I am TRYING to slow down their "precious time". I can slow it down, they haven't seen what it would be like if I decided to manually input all of the serial numbers or told them I had to refill the printer paper when it was already full. Sounds fun. 20.Honestly, wouldn't you rather be having sex right now? with who? I don't really think about that a lot of the time. Besides, I go to work within two hours. 21. Honestly, do you like someone? I don't like to devulge that sort of thing. 22. Honestly, are you single? Yes I am... 24. Honestly, does anyone like you? I can never tell unless it's thrown at me, hahaha. (Comment on this)

2:51 am	I'm about to go to bed. I'm glad to be getting more hours this week, and I also got to work in the R Zone a bit this evening. It seems as long as I only talk to one of the managers things are fine. I'm working tomorrow from 11 AM to 7 PM. Not sure about the day after, but I'll find out tomorrow. Friday I look forward to checking out the Gamecrazy places for more Genesis games since they go for so low a price. I also keep checking for SNES, but the ones I don't already have for it hardly ever show up. I've been hoping to find Lufia 2: Rise of The Sinistrals, Earthbound, Super Mario Allstars, and the Breath of Fire games. I can't say specifics for Genesis though because I just know of too many good games I want to get for it. I was, and am a huge Sega fan, and I wanted so many games when I was a kid that I can get now because they go for about 1 to 2 bucks each. I still want to play them as much as I did then as well. I'm feeling lonely again. Usually creeps around night time, I'm keeping myself occupied playing Sonic 2... (Comment on this)

4:22 am	Vampire-Evil, Elegant, Dark. You stalk the night looking to prey on the weak and defenceless. You are poetic and booksmart, and you like to plan ahead of things and be ontop of all tasks you face. You're heart is a distant place to you, in the past people have probably hurt you so much that you feel its time to lash back at the world. You would probably like nothing more then someone who will love you for what you are and not resent your 'evil' ways, and someday you'll probably meet someone exactly like yourself. (Comment on this)

6:26 am	The Sith Code "Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through Strength, I gain power. Through Power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The force shall free me." I actually like their code better than the Jedi code... (Comment on this)

6:24 am	I finally had a good night's sleep. My dream was interesting too. It was one of my dreams that I sometimes have where anything I will for comes to be if I concentrate hard enough. I love those, I can fly, move stuff with my mind, engulf a city in a huge fireball... I believe I'm working from 11 am to 5 PM today, I'm not so sure on the time I get off though because my work often changes my hours while I'm working. I've been thinking about running a Megaman X RP based in BESM sometime. I invited Edward to come along to it, seeing how as far as I know he's the only one that knows as much as I do about the series. Atleast out of the people I know anyway. I'm about to go make myself something to eat, although it seems I'm the only one this Saturday morning that has woken up at 6 AM this time. No matter though, I've got my usual wake up time back, and I'm happy about it. I will probably get in some time playing Maple Story when I get home, I haven't worked on my character in that for awhile and Edward's more than tripled my level. Might get in some RO as well if James wants to play any or something. I updated my personals stuff as well, so I'll most likely check on that whenever it is I get home. Reminds me, I still have to get everything completed in Devil May Cry 3... Current Mood: happy Current Music: Vodoo People - Prodigy (Comment on this)

12:47 am	GRYPHON You are the gryphon! A gryphon is a large creature that is half lion and half eage with immense feathery wings. A gryphon is very fierce and loyal; however, a gryphon also symbolizes independence and freedom. The gryphon is actually multi-facted. The lion half represents ultimate courage, honor, and loyalty. The eagle half stands for independence, freedom, and justice. Which mythical creature resides in your soul? (11 Results + Pictures) brought to you by Quizilla (Comment on this)

12:05 am	http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v258/Celauve/BrokenHero.jpg I decided to make a Megaman Zero desktop. Took me a long time since the image was origionally very small, and I had to edit it a lot not to make it look pixelated. I like it though.I will probably try to add more effects to it later. I love that game. (Comment on this)

10:41 pm	This song has been stuck in my head for while now... Simon and Garfunkle - The Sound of Silence Hello darkness, my old friend, I’ve come to talk with you again, Because a vision softly creeping, Left it’s seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence. In restless dreams I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone, ’neath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of A neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence. And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more. People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening, People writing songs that voices never share And no one deared Disturb the sound of silence. Fools said i,you do not know Silence like a cancer grows. Hear my words that I might teach you, Take my arms that I might reach you. But my words like silent raindrops fell, And echoed In the wells of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon God they made. And the sign flashed out it’s warning, In the words that it was forming. And the signs said, the words of the prophets Are written on the subway walls And tenement halls. And whisper’d in the sounds of silence. (Comment on this)

9:24 am	I'm about to go to work. I'll probably be able to walk back by 3 or so. Hopefully none of the chores will be done when I get back. I want to do them all. I don't want people to think I don't do anything for the place and that I'm useless or just some slobbering dog to be cleaned after. I'm just tired of feeling like a dead weight, and I want to be able to get some sleep tonite. I've been just sitting in bed looking at the ceiling for hours every time I try to get to sleep the last few nights. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

4:48 am	I really should be getting to sleep. I have work later today at 12. I can't get myself to be tired though. This is turning out to be an annoying night, not even my insense are helping me. I am using this time to practice my guitar more though... Current Mood: annoyed (2 Comments |Comment on this)
