The next three weeks are going to be so shitty, well, including this week, so the next two weeks are gonna to suck big. Why you ask? Because Reach-Ahead is a pain in the ass, it's boring, and it drains you.
I mean, thankfully I read a lot so the amount of reading we get isn't much for me, but still is a lot. I mean, we read Hamlet in three days, then had a test on Friday that took like two and a half hours because there was an essay, a news article to write about an event in the play, plus paraphrasing a soliloquy that was two pages long. And then there were easy matching and fill in the blanks, but it was like a mini exam. Plus one night we had to answer 27 questions on Hamlet, and Tommorow I have a presentation and an essay due for Hamlet, plus have over 100 pages read of our novel study: 5th Business. I mean, that is insane. Technically, each day is six a half classes of that course. You want to kill yourself, I swear to god, and you get two 5 minute breaks; you have enough time to piss, not even a long piss either. And you get only 30 minutes for lunch. It's fine for me, but it actually isn't much.
Oh well, at least there are upsides to the next couple of weeks. I mean, I went to George Thorogood at Bluesfest on Friday night. That was such an awesome concert, he can make that guitar sing man. I mean his solos are awesome and he plays it beautifully, not actually making it sing. There was a lot of alcohol going around, and lots of cigarettes, not as much weed as I expected though. When I walked out it felt like I had cancer there was so much smoke. Heh, it was funny seeing all these old 80's rockers looking all professional because they have jobs and stuff now. And Tuesday I am going to go to Unearth at Capitol City Music Hall, which is going to be such a friken awesome show. There are going to be so many mosh and slam dancing pits, it is going to be insane. Unfortunately, I couldn't go see the Tragically Hip yesterday night because my dad was being stupid, and was like "Oh, well, since your friend isn't going, you can't go either". That really sucked, because they are so good, but they will probably come back next year. But it was the second year I missed them, and I hate the fact that my father would still tell me stuff like that. I was going to go see Experiment in Terror and ...as the Poets affirm for that benefit show that night too, since I couldn't go see The Hip, yet my father told me the same thing. Sucks. But I compensated by having my friend over whom I haven't seen in a long time so we could catch up on things.
Oh, and I also beat Megaman Battle Network 4:Red Sun. My statistics were:
Completion time: 25:34
Chips: Standard: 91, Mega: 0, Giga: 1, Secrets: 1
Souls: Gutsoul, Rollsoul, Thundersoul
The last boss was sort of annoying, because some of his attacks you just can't avoid, and you couldn't really tell if he was in the second or thrid row, so jugding attacks was difficult sometimes. I started Hard mode of course, but it doesn't seem much harder..yet. Hmm, wonder which Souls I am going to get now. Oh and I have also beaten the first 6 Megaman games on my collection. It doesn't take long to beat one, but fun none the less.
Ok, that has basically been my life, so, yeah.
