Skip's first day at LiveJournal.com
Well, well, well...
It seems that the Original One has arrived on LiveJournal.com. Since a few of my friends have these, and I'm always one of the last to join in, I figured jump on the bandwagon like I always do.
So what do I do here? Do I just drag on about how crappy my day was, or do I write down my great philosophical theories? Well, I figure I can just do whatever. I don't know how often I'll update this thing. Just when I feel like updating it.
So...
I found out today that there will be no school tomorrow. Maybe I'll use the time to work on a biography for this thing to bring y'all up to date, or maybe I'll do something useful and work on my senior portfolio.
Just to get it off my chest, I'm still lagging from Valentine's Day. Why? Because I'm single and I have been for the past... let's see... 1-2-3... 18 years and I'm a guy that gets pretty lonely, so Valentine's Day is a lonely day for me. To tell you the truth I don't see the point in the boyfriend-girlfriend buying gifts for each other on Valentine's Day because -- yes, you've heard it, I know -- they should be buying gifts and loving each other everyday. Valentine's Day, to me, is more of a single guy/girl trying to get hooked up (ya know what I'm sayin'), or at least that should have more emphasis than a giant stuffed gorilla with a card attached to it. However, nobody really shares my theory, so if I do something for a certain someone, I get that "WTF are you doing, weirdo?" look and that's kind of -- you know -- a let-down.
I walked in that day, and I was like, "Yeah, I'm gonna get me a woman today. Oh yeah!" I was hyped. The faculty had been Rod Stewart the past few days on the PA and I was confident. I was ready. I walked up and...
"NO, KYLE!"
I thought, "Minor set-back" and later bought a rose -- No, a carnation -- for $2.00. That's money I felt I should spend on someone else rather than... uhh... candy for myself. I hate flowers. I can't smell what people are like, "These fl'rs smell good!" Anyway, I go to break, carnation in hand up to the girl, but I was quickly sidetracked by her request for a Diet Pepsi from the pop machine. That gave me the time to come to my senses and remember that girl really has no interest in me and that attempts are futile. So I got the Pepsi and walked away with the carnation tucked behind my ear because I'm cool enough to pull off the Vanity Smurf look.
So I bought a flower for someone, but ended up wasting it, and buying it for myself in reality. Not much has happened lately in the past two days so I'm done for today.
'Til the next time, don't walk into any parked cars.

It has come time to cross the Rubicon. Now will live in mediocrity or rule Rome?
