(no subject)
Nothing much has happened. Unfortunately, I'm locked in a battle right now between school and Final Fantasy XI. For those of you who aren't in the know, it's the Online RPG one. I'm a conformist dork, so this comes natural to me. Right now, I'm a lvl 13 Mithra Warrior with a big fucking two-handed broad sword. Good stuff. ^_^
This brings me to my next point, however. I can literally feel my brain degenerating. I don't know what happened. I got a 67 on a Chem test that I studied for over 5 hours on in total. I just don't know what to do. It's a spiral, really. Someday, I'll be licking the excess peanut butter out of a jar I salvaged out of my home sweet home along side a plethora of other bums under the turn pike of any major highway. Stupid life. :\
Holy shit, Al Roker's lost a lot of goddamned weight.
Also, the Student Union's open. That's sort of a misnomer, actually. When I say "Student Union," I of course mean "Building With Varying Styles of Chairs." I mean, basically, that's all it is right now. A place to sit down. They're really obnoxious about it, too. There's an "Art room" with rejected trash from the remedial art students from our so-called Art Department. My favorite piece from there, btw, is the highly creative painting entitled "Stress," which depicts (surprise, surprise) a woman screaming. Wow, nice spin, Kandinsky, I'm starting to see why we have so many sports scholarships. The chairs in that room fucking suck, too. I remember one time, I tried sitting down in the main hall by just falling on a couch and almost having the wind knocked out of me by the rock-hard cusions installed on their "neo-modern" chairs. I don't think I'll join in on the circle-jerk and say that whoever decided to put in those retarded couches should not be allowing anywhere near campus again. Also, we've got a "Hub." Not in the hardware sense, btw. It's actually just a Metal Ring that hangs about 7 feet off the ground that apparantly represents some sort of bullshit "circle of unity," or something. Genius. App Gets a Cafeteria, we get a fucking Hub. Thanks, UNC. I mean, we have an Alpine Bagel, which apparantly sells Cream Cheese at the price of $1.50, but I dunno, the cafeteria 20 feet away sorts of begs the question, "Hey, why not something cooler?" I mean, hey, NCState. You got an inexpensive Ice cream shop with a quality product? Yeah? Well fuck you. We have a fish tank. That's right motherfuckers. Eat it. I mean, yeah, some people, like App, will spring for a big pool hall, but no, not us, we're Chapel Hill. You don't fuck with Chapel Hill. Our fish tank will own you.
The plus side is that, yeah, there is a place to sit down. I think I played some FFXI in there, and it was ok. But, I mean, is that it? There's actually also a big bowling alley. That's sort of interesting. I mean, it would be, if I didn't suck ass at bowling. I mean, seriously, ask anyone I've bowled with. I've got a solid lock on last place. They say that it's also got Pool and an arcade, but there's two problems with that. First of all, it's not open. Despite the fact that they claim on their sign that the "Entire" Union was opened, the part of the building that I'd expect would be difficult to renovate is closed. What the hell were these people doing for 8 months? I mean, How long does it take to ship 40 pieces of ugly, uncomfortable chairs into a building? The second problem, btw, is that the only game I've heard that they had in the Union was from the nerds from the Anime Club, who mentioned that it had House of the Dead. 1. I mean, hey, I respect the arcade idea, but when your best game was released over 5 years ago and already has two sequels, you fall quite short of gaining my respect. And again, why would they respect the gaming minority? The school's full of preps, they'd be satisfied with NFL Blitz and Golden Tee.
Oh, and they've got about 8 computers in the back, which is a nice touch, except for the fact that it's possibly the dumbest system I've ever seen. It's got no programs installed on it aside from the Mozilla web browser, and it doesn't even let you minimize to the desktop. And god, what a bland browser it is. I felt like I was in a fucking time warp, sitting in my dad's bedroom, shocked out of my mind that I was actually "surfing" the "web" using Netscape 4.1 and my dad's Mac. I mean, Jesus, I don't need a disgustingly flashy skinned browser, but Mozilla seriously looks like my ass on a bad day. And again, there are no other programs, so Sophia can't even check her syllabus, as it's saved as a DOC file. Way to go, guys.
Anyways, quite a lackluster update, if I do say so myself. My life is notoriously boring. You see? I'm not updating due to lack of time, or interest. I'm updating out of lack of life.
Actually, that's not completely true. I hang out with Sophia all the time. I wish I had time to throw in all the in jokes and fun we have, but I really don't. The only one that I'll let spill for now is that Sophia has openly confessed a desire to (and I'm quoting) "pet" our Mythology teacher. She's a female. Hell yeah. ^_^
