I know, I such at LJ
Another gigantic gap between LJ posts! I wish I had an excuse for it but I've just been lazy. The main reason I'm updating this now is because I've been staring at my computer screen for the past 4 hours trying to type up a 10 page paper about the war on drugs and need a little bit of a break from it.
Even though the people that will actually read through this entry can probably be counted on one hand I still feel like throwing some random thoughts down here for nostalgia's sake.
The end of the quarter is rapidly approaching and I'm kinda almost ready for it. The Mirror Lake Jump was last night and I'm pleased to say I had absolutely no part in that fucktarded event. Unfortunately the "blood money" I've been living off of by selling OSU football tickets has run out since their aren't any more home games so I've resorted to having to pickup more shifts at my shitty shitty shitty on campus job. I never thought working as a pizza delivery boy could ever be so stressful. Business at the PAD has more than tripled since last year so we're always crazy busy and everyone is stressing out. Needless to say the job has almost completely stopped being fun anymore. I talked to a bunch of people that have been working there for as long as me or longer and they all agree that the PAD is just one giant life sucking leech. The best people working their have long since quit and all the new hires seem to be too busy trying to keep afloat amidst the never ending stream of pizza orders. The closing shift has become the worst nightmare since we rarely get out before 1:45 am anymore. We used to be out around 1:15 almost all the time, but I have yet to work a shift where that has happened yet this quarter. I know I'm ranting a lot here, but 20 hours a week at this job allows me to vent a little I think. Actually I'm gonna end up working 30 hours this week. At least $400 biweekly paychecks are nice even if their barely keeping my checking account afloat.
I feel like I've been playing too many video games lately. I know I've already spent somewhere close to 30 hours on Persona 4 already. That game is easily one of the most entertaining RPGs I have ever played. I haven't been this addicted to a longer game like this in a long time. I also hopped on the Modern Warfare 2 bandwagon like so many other people. Its the first time I've actually really gotten into playing multiplayer online. If any of you kids play it on PS3 then send me a friend request so we can kill each other online. My handle is BiologicalSlicer.
I guess I should talk about Jrock for a while too. It seems most of my favorite bands have been keeping it on the DL or haven't been doing anything I want to be a part of. I used to buy all Girugamesh's albums but now I couldn't care less about their new one because their last few singles were really repetitive. That and I hate how their releasing 3 different versions of NOW, each with its own exclusive material. Even if its the record label's fault I'm still sick and tired of seeing the fans get raped for every penny they have by ridiculously expensive merchandise and sales gimmicks. Bleh, the only band I'm really stoked for right now is Merry since I just downloaded their new concert DVD and it is fucking amazing. Their playing in some tiny little shithole live house but the performance is just so powerful. The editing gives it an awesome raw punk feel that makes it really entertaining to watch. It wasn't until their last album Underworld that I realized how fucking awesome this band really is. I really hope they stick with the crazy, raw live sound.
Anyways, since this post is in danger of becoming too long I should wrap it up. I'll be coming home Thanksgiving weekend to be forced to eat a meal with my family. Thankfully I'll be with Alex too so that will make it all worthwhile. Not sure what else is going on that weekend, but if anyone from back home wants to hang then you know the number to dial.
Hopefully it won't be another 7 weeks until my next entry...
