3 Years Overdue...

So I FINALLY was able to get my temps!!!  Woooo!  I'm so glad it's finally done.  That test was so amazingly easy too.  I only missed one, and it was about a stupid bicycle thing.  XD

So tonight, my friend Mike came over one last time before he's deployed tomorrow.  Was good seeing him one more time.  We played some Halo, and then said our goodbyes.  It was hard to do.  I'm gonna miss him.

9-23-08 (self-pity free, I promise =P)

Well, glad I got that out of my system... >_>

Anyway... um...  we did our Station Day broadcast Thursday.  It went really well.  The on-air people did a great job of putting together the culmination of the project in a funny and entertaining way, and overall did very well.  On a related note, I'm still getting complements on the posters I made... woooo.  lol

Now that Station Day is done and over with... we don't have any more projects at OCB... SD was our last.  For the next 6 sessions we just sit there, maybe work on our demos... but mainly just sit there... yay for having a laptop to keep myself occupied with IM, Web, games, and movies.  hehe

I was supposed to get my temps today.  I missed school, and was supposed to go this afternoon.  I was unable to, due to some very sad and unfortunate circumstances.  My aunt was supposed to go with me and pay for them, but sadly my great-uncle, who has been dealing with cancer for quite some time, had to be admitted to Hospice.  His lungs have begun filling up with fluid.  They don't believe he will last through the week.  We still hope and pray for a miracle.  If you could do the same, that'd be much appreciated.

My friend Mike (not the one from FBCS) is about to be deployed to Egypt.  He leaves Ohio this weekend.  Didn't realize how much I was gonna miss him until I went to his graudation party, and realized that it could be the last time I see him.  I first met him when he was my cousin Brittney's boyfriend.  I actually became better friends with him after they broke up.  When they broke up he stopped being the person my cousin wanted him to be, and finally started to figure out who he actually was.  Anyway, he's leaving this weekend, so I just ask that anyone who reads this prays for his safety and success in Egypt, but also that I get to see my friend again.  I'm hoping to get to see him one more time before he leaves, so I hope that happens as well.

Well time for me to go watch some CSI: NY (5 day, All day marathon on Spike.... woo).  Til tomorrow, farewell!  No self-pity, guaranteed!  =P

Fleeting...

Each day just keeps getting worse.  I can't keep going like this.  

I am miserable.  Each day, it's the same thing... I go to school... I come home... I sit in front of my computer screen for a few hours... and then I lay in my bed for a few hours before I can actually get to sleep, which is usually around 3 am.  (Now it's even worse, because one of the legs on my bed broke because it was an extralong twin mattress on a normal twin frame... and we can't afford to by a new one anytime in the near future, so I'm stuck with a bed that slants 30 degrees on most of the right side of it.)  I stayed back home to help my mom with the bills and to keep us from losing our house and being homeless... again... and of course, I still don't have a job, and our finances are still getting worse.  I'm only finishing OCB because of the scholarships, loans, and money we have invested in it... I'm convinced that place is just a ripoff.  I don't even know if broadcasting is what I want to do with my life.  I'm sure OCB isn't going to be much of a help getting a job anyway unless it's in the middle of nowhere in Montana.  And everyday that I'm trapped in this house... it's either stay in my oven of a room in front of the computer or TV, or go downstairs, and sit there and do nothing, and eventually listen to my mom go on about "my dad and his whore" and just drive me even more crazy.  It's hard to be strong and listen to it over and over for 2 years.  I am emotionally, physically, and spiritually depleted... and I'm all alone.

The friends I do have are either too far away... are too busy to make time for me...  or just don't care.  Classmates of mine at OCB only care about drinking... that's their idea of bonding or having a good time... which means I don't have them either since I don't do that.  Yes, I do realize that there are those that I talk to that care... don't get me wrong, I am grateful for it all... but... I need more than just talking or words the internet... I need someone there next to me to say it'll be ok, or someone to just hang out with to forget my worries for a couple hours.  A shoulder to cry on.  I just need someone to let me know I'm worth their time...

I'm sure if someone does respond to this... the response will probably just be "pray about it."  Oh believe me, I have been... and it's not changing anything... so then you may say I don't mean it, or I'm not allowing things to change... and I'm sorry, but that's complete bull.  Believe me... I've been praying.  And not to step on anyone's toes, but I think some people use the response of "pray about it" as an easy way out so that they don't have to be there for their "friend"... God'll take care of it.... Well what if God's way of taking care of it is you being there for your friend?

I need a change... I need to get away... I need anything but this... and sadly... there's not a thing I can do about it...

If you took time to read this... I do greatly appreciate it... at least I'm worth a couple of minutes of your time... and that does truly mean something to me.

Another Saturday

Welp, it's Saturday once again.

And once again, I'm sitting here, bored and depressed out of my mind.

The week wasn't too bad, for it being yet another week in the place known as OCB.  I've got pretty much the easiest job on this project... I make posters and promotions in Photoshop... and then I print them out and hang them up... best job ever.  Our class has already been complimented on having the best posters ever.  Wooooo!  I might post them on here after while.

Still, I can't stand being in that place much longer.  Thank goodness I graduate, as of right now, on October 8th.  If anyone wants to come and see it, that'd be awesome.

So I'm probably just gonna do the usual today... try and find stuff to do on the computer... and then watch HSM, HSM 2, or Camp Rock... -_-

WWE Unforgiven

Unforgiven was amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!!

First, my friend Mike and I got there, and using our Reserved Parking Pass, which we also got for free, parked right outside the walkway from the parking garage to the arena.  We then headed to the suite.  It was AMAZING.  It was SO CLOSE to the ring!!!!  There was so much amazing free food!  Chicken, sausage, meatballs, chips, pizza..... sooo great.  And all the free Pepsi products we could drink!!

Then the rest of our classmates arrived, settled in, and ate.

The wrestling then started!

All of the matches were great.  Matt Hardy became the ECW Champion!!!! Yaaaay!  He's one of my favorites.  Sadly, my favorite wrestler, Jeff Hardy, was seconds away from winning when Triple H stole the victory, and retained his WWE Championship.  The rest of the matches were pretty awesome.  It was an unforgettable experience.

Suite Stuff

So, a few weeks ago, a classmate of mine said he could possibly get a bunch of tickets through his internship with a local TV station to the next WWE event, WWE Unforgiven, which will be at the Q on Sunday, Sept. 7th. Though I was quite excited at this news, I still had my doubts.

Well I went to see Hamlet 2 on Wednesday (possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen). I received a text from the classmate, saying he got the tickets, and that they were suite ones! WOOOOOOOOO!! Later he clarified that 4 of them were suite and the other two were club seats with suite passes. So since the club seats were closer, I took those and the suite passes.

I'm so excited!!! Something great actually happened!! I have always wanted to go to a WWE event, but never had the money. Sunday is going to be so awesome!

Blech

Well today, I'm not feeling to well. Headache... nausea... and I've been unable to sleep. Perhaps it's because of the heat. I dunno. Missed school the past 2 sessions because I felt like crap. Hopefully I'm able to graduate October 7th.

I was rather disappointed today. The High School Musical 3 contest on Myspace started today... but of course, only open to high school students.... YARGH.

Less than 52 days til HSM 3! Wooo.

Well anyway, I can't think of anything actually interesting to say... so I'm going to just go look for a snack.

Oh! And the new 90210 starts tonight! I'm gonna watch it just to see how it is. I wonder how long it will be before they fire Shannon Doherty again. haha
