Stuff. Then a vacation. Then leaves.

Okay, now to start I've been away for quite a while. Yeah I know it doesn't make much progress concerning my procrastination problem, but hey, here we go.

The days have become incredibly slow-paced, and routine. I don't really work anymore, despite how I'm still "working" my two 4 hour shifts a week 'maybe'. It has been beyond quiet at the house here, no one except myself and the dog and a few cats, so I've had lots of "me" time to sit around and think about doing something productive involving my homework as I procrastinate by doing laundry or dishes; Or, today, clean the patio of leaves.

My vacation ended before it began I suppose, with not a moment to relax I've felt so anxious over nothing.

It's pretty fricking cold here as well, since hey, 20 degrees is cold to me anyways. Whatever, I got my 2 weeks of Autumn.

..Happy birthday to me..

'Nuff said.

Procrastination: continued-Oh- and other stuff I'll get to later

Hey peoples. I've just got back from "work" if you can call it that. It was quite... not professional let's say (I've said it before) and I got caught up after my shift ended speaking to my boss about... stuff. I.E. his boyfriend and vented about angry/creepy customers; things like that.

I managed to FINALLY put forth an introduction at AVF (tidbit of info for you, Becca) I've been procrastinating doing my homework again... there it sits.. lonely.. waiting for me to write on it. I swear that I must spend more effort avoiding it than it would take to actually do it. In any case, DUDE, I've been really lonely... and like, bored as well, and... listening to the same songs a good 20 times consecutively. So it's like... DUDE, or in my case frick, but you get the idea I'm sure.

"Sigh" I'm sure that you can also see that I'm incredibly bored and lonely.. wait nevermind I already typed that I'M ALSO NOT paying much attention at the moment apparently.

In any case.. tell me about YOUR day or something, perhaps I can place that conveniently into question form hold on a second:

How was your day hm? Or what did you do or something, yeah that works.

Farewell for now in any case.

Band room

Today during my irregular band class I noticed that the board on the top of the room featuring all of the birthdays of the month had been... let's say vandalized. All of the names were altered to ridiculous forms of what they once were. Lol, "Valor Poup" among others were victimized through this heartless crime.

Afterward we rehearsed Thriller alongside the Michael Jackson dance group.. Nyes.. fear THEIR hisps. Anyway, after this I've got to rehearse again tonight for some night rehearsal, when the insects are out and about harassing people. I just hope that MY birthday name for next month doesn't get vandalized :/.

Meh- just eat more controversial tomatoes.

-James

-just for the sake of doing so

I actually have absolutely no idea as to what I had in mind to type upon deciding to blog 'something' after a decent hiatus for the better of a week and a half, so rather than just waiting to be saved by the bell, I am sitting here forcing myself to improvise.

To be honest I enjoy this whole blogging activity for it allows me to actually write down my thoughts in addition to speaking them aloud (I speak to myself quite a bit you see) so in this way, I can now have a "history" let's say with what I had/have in mind at the time I'm writing something. If I don't write I generally forget a good sized fricking chunk of my thoughts the night before, and sometimes that can be a bad thing, though not often, mind you.

I've been watching more anime recently (as well as eating which I'm shocked about concerning the fact that I've NEVER had an appetite to speak of really) which lets me keep to myself as well as my thoughts. Unfortunately I've been stuck behind in my homework again, like right now *cough*.

I wonder what I shall do about this. In any case, goodnight.

Michael Jackson at the Golf Course for the Elderly.

I was playing Michael Jackson's music at the "Chico Creek Community Center" this morning for my band class. Among "I want you back" the National Anthem was played. The community center was basically a senior citizens gold course today, (I mean people generally have jobs on a Friday afternoon) and post the music, we ended up being served old pizza ordered from the day before! Awesome-sauce. It went through me pretty nastily as an old pizza likely would.

On a more positive not, our group received 500$ to play the small collection of songs, which is quite the plus. Then afterwards, a girl came up to me and asked if I was British, as I usually am (I'm always asked if I'm British or English ARG) then she hugged me, said I was amazing then hugged me again. It was an awkward moment for the books, but she's nice I suppose.

Tomorrow afternoon I get to play Michael Jackson's "Thriller" at the downtown Chico plaza with Michael Jackson dance group We'll see how that one goes...

A glorious night

It's about 11:29 my time here this pretty evening. I was outside going to get the mail as I usually do, when I noticed just how lit everything was (the sky) due to the moon's glorious shine. The night sky was streaked blue; Something I haven't seen for a long time.

I've been put in a good mood you know, which I'm happy for, as it doesn't happen often. The stars, as well as the shine of the moon itself, trances me per se, as I am reminded just how much of a night owl I truly am. Everything about the night is beautiful, the feel, the quiet, it's all there to give me a sense of peace, to me.

Some things, like my mamsies job is quite saddening, but through these glimpses of just how beautiful the world itself is, makes me desire to find that same beauty within the people that inhabit the world itself.

"This Ugly Yet Beautiful World", right?

P.E.

I've been stuck playing "golf" at P.E. lately and things have been getting ridiculous considering all of the avid Happy Gilmore impersonators. After my P.E. class I headed for band only to go back OUTSIDE (it's fricking hot today in the sun) to perform marching formations for another hour; I swear that I was beginning to lose my mind in that 90 degree heat today.

Let's just say that I'm very glad that my favorite of all seasons is now upon us. Woo.. Autumn. I love everything about the season, especially the rain, and the comfortable temperatures, Halloween and Thanksgiving and such holidays as well as my birthday. I'm hoping to get more rain personally, just for the cooler temperatures as well as, well, you know... RAIN. Anyhoo I've got to go check the mail and see if the package I ordered is here yet and then get ready for work.

....Yay-sauce

-James

Oh P.S. I managed to finally get under 3 minutes for my half-mile run today 2:55 was my time. Yay me.

-James

Mehhhhh I did NOTHING today.

Okay to point out the obvious, I did nothing at all today, I see no need to capitalize nothing a second time because I figure that you get the point by now. I've been going to a P.E. class every day of the regular week these days to accumulate my absent P.E. credits, and I've been meeting some "interesting" people let's say.

A fellow student offered me a bite of her sandwich and I politely declined, I mean, c'mon, I've already had like 4 peanut butter and jellies this week already (I prefer a little blue cheese dressing on my sandwiches anyway don't judge me). Talking about the poor souls with beyond ridiculous names i.e. Nardo Getichu, Kate! (Yes, the exclamation mark is on the birth certificate) and something pertaining to dreams involving singing jawbreakers, yes you read that right. If that made no sense to you then you get my point.

I'm sitting here procrastinating doing homework while also being too lazy to close my bedroom window despite the people smoking outside are right there below me, smoke flooding the room. Whateversauce, I enjoy the smell. Again... MEH; I've done nothing today, I haven't even watched any anime or anything which is what I always do when I'm in a "down in the dumps" sad kind of mood too.

....Gerflargle, it stands alone as a noun, and also a swear, trust me, I've heard it being used in context.

Time to eat the controversial tomato I suppose...

Steam Hijack

I just got back from work (about an hour ago actually I've been working on account information, my next subject).

I was playing a game linked to my Steam account and after quitting, I had a notification on my windows screen, saying that my account was currently logged in elsewhere and I needed to re-enter my account information to log back in.

Well, considering my title, I'm sure you can imagine what popped up once I did this. It didn't work. Thankfully Steam has a support center just for this sort of thing with different login information just in case you've been hacked. While I was in my hotmail account I noticed that there were already opened emails of email that I never opened myself... and by this point I've already gone... well crap.

Anyhoo the opened emails were Steam notifications detailing that the requested password and username changes that "I" requested were successful... again... well crap. By this point Ive been completely locked out of my account and some other hacker is enjoying my precious computer games "shakes fist" and I'm spending hour after hour trying to figure out how to login to Steam support to fix things, if even possible.

Well as it turns out, there is an entire section of information detailing how to reclaim "hijacked Steam accounts". I emailed Steam support as it is so conveniently called and practically flipped a biscuit. In email form, mind you.

Thankfully, however, I received an email in my gmail account thanks to the dude/ette that replied to my email promptly. They explained that there was "evidence that I 'may' have been hacked." and they completely shut down the account. They even so generously detailed how to re-open the thing with new login information! How nice of them.

Fortunately, everything was a success and was fixed without a hitch, because I have no desire to flip yet another biscuit, this is a good thing. Apparently the douche that hacked me got my Steam info because it was the same douche that had hacked my hotmail account not that long ago, and by default there's a setting that auto copies/ saves/ stores ALL sent emails on the account, which just so happened to contain Steam login information WEE thanks HotMail! My steam name was changed to GiftFreeGames! and the avatar was removed by said douche, but other than that everything is good it seems.

Thanks to the minor tidbit biscuit-flipping scenario, I've borked my HotMail account and have fully adopted gMail. Becuase it is exudes awesomesauce.

Incredibly large chunks worth even.

September 11th.

I just realized that I came to less than 20 minutes before having forgot the 9/11 anniversary.

Let's just say I'm glad that I didn't technically forget, in the end. :)

House, and a senseless second, third, and infinitely frsutrating 17th thought.

It's approximately 11:27 P.M. my time right about now, (the time I'm beginning to write) and I figured that it was only fair to come out with some honesty. I sit here and find myself really procrastinating writing on this blog, as if it were a chore, though I, for the life of me, can't figure out why. Hilariously I was watching the television drama House, as I'm sure you're aware of, considering it's awesomeness and found myself desiring to write something; Anything. So here I sit, writing aimlessly thinking that perhaps I can write something completely random and wonder if someone may find it poetic, as if it sounds like it had a point. Laughing now, I sat on this sentence for a good 30 seconds pondering what to write, and I enjoy it, oddly enough.

You know, I've been busy with quite a bit as of late, and have always thought of a way to find an excuse to just take a break from things, like dropping out of the band class I've begun to attend for the sake of extra credits. Why not quit my job? Well, I realize after every afternoon during my getting on my work uniform and on my way to the restaurant, I'm fighting it, I'm frustrated that I have no desire to go, then I actually make it there, and realize that things just aren't that bad, and that quitting now would be a large mistake on my part; I mean seriously, whom in California would QUIT the job they have at this point in the game?

I again realize just how fortunate of a situation I've managed to get myself into, frick, it took me about four months of checking on my application in order to get hired, it would in essence and principal be wrong to give up now, just over a brief lack of motivation. Ha, I've learned quite a bit about myself over my short life so far, and lethargy, I suppose, is just another tidbit of self-discovery I can add to my list when I one day tell my story.

Again, just to emphasize, I really DO enjoy House, it's one of my favorite shows on T.V.

Sleep unbecoming

I've been attempting quite consistently to induce my own sleep, unfortunately it is certainly not an easy task for me to accomplish. In any case, good night, for I'm sure that I shall achieve my great sleep eventually. Onward I go!

Summer and humidity

I've been working quite a bit now to the point that I've been promoted! It's quite exciting, honestly, as Summer crawls on by, absorbing the energy right out of me; Honestly at 95-115 temperatures I thought that I was going to go ballistic.

Summer thankfully is coming to an end and introducing my favorite season in it's wake..Autumn! (I've NEVER liked Summer as a season to be honest) I, for one am ready for some cool temperatures, and I'm also ready to be able to survive wearing my fancy long sleeve shirts and jacket again....yay....

Through the hilarious unprofessional-ism..s of work thanks to my three bosses and employees, I've been at liberty to enjoy free reign over the drink machines...my favorite perk, I must say. Too much Dr. Pepper however, and I'll start to feel a little.... funny.

What..you thought that the title was misleading? You're just weird.

Verily.

-James

Just got back

I just got back from work and sat down after doing a few things, washing my hair, using some mouth wash, changing out of my work uniform etc. Work at Burger King is not all just bad things, in fact, at times it can become quite stressful, rather than just bad. After my shift I managed to have lunch with some close friends though.

How was your day?


-James

Happy Easter yay

Happy Easter... yay.

It is quite nice when something is so pleasantly simplified, is it not?

The title, verily, says it all.

-James

Easter

I just got back from my Uncle's special annual Easter celebration with his extended family. If I were to have a title, I would probably be part of the "non-old-fashioned" family. Despite how "old-fashioned" we actually are, nobody else appears to notice, so we tend to stick out.

Two hours with 15 screaming little *little* kids is quite an arduous undertaking, but the youngest ones were quite adorable to be honest. So, after I returned home, (I should have taken a pain killer though I didn't) I browsed a bit online for Final Fantasy XIII game reviews and am eager to get my hands unto that JRPG, despite how many criticize the slow beginning, I love a good story, so I'll be sure to get it in the future sometime soon.

The technical Easter is tomorrow, so I may get the opportunity to celebrate it a second time at the church. Until next time then, take care.

My Word of the Day!

Hey, I just realized something! I am in a good mood! And I have not felt like I was in a good mood for quite awhile so my word of the day is the following: Dance! Hey, be it contemporary or recreational, or exotic or even risque! Dance is always guaranteed to make you make a fool of yourself! And you don't have to care!

Just like Improv.

-James

Oh my

"Oh my" sums things up quite nicely, considering how long that I have been procrastinating placing a new post upon here, despite how I doubt many will notice it being here. However, to those that do, I thank you for in fact noticing, and everything else along those lines. My goodness where to start.. All right I guess I'll just begin with the relatively recent I suppose.

I have begun working finally, at Burger King of all places, so now I have a basic income, and as many are aware getting a job is 100% easier once you've had a job at least once in your life before.. and I am glad to get this experience out of the way for other things, like dancing.. if I WERE to dance, but I'm not at the moment so I'll just have to move on to something less frightening. I am looking forward to the annual Easter celebration at the residences' of a fellow family member, and I almost missed it too, for I forgot to request the time off from work, though the boss is a nice guy, (Imagine that!) and I believe that that has been worked out.

By now I'm sure you realize that I have nothing of real interest to say (type) but to be honest, I never had anything to type of to begin with. As a reference, or a so-you-know, or another synonym, when it comes to words I am at my best when I am walking, be it outside or safely pacing within my own home... perhaps I should write some of them down. By the way, if you have stuck around to this point in this blog post, I thank you dearly, in fact oh-so dearly, that I'm surprised that this completely out-of-nowhere speech entertained you, and I hope that it did just that.

I'll try to not wait for so long until my next blog entry, so until then, I say good night, and take care.

Woo..

-James

Tired...ness

I've had my first real workout since Jr. High as of yesterday, and walking for over 2 miles didn't help my already sore legs all *that* much. Though before I may exercise my liberty of sleep; In preparation of tomorrow's appointment, I have homework that I need to get done. Woohoo...

Busy...but uneventful..?

I'm headed out to check on my application at Burger King, then I'll head a bit further down the road to acquire another application at Taco Bell. Quite uneventful..unfortunately, but at least I'll have something to do for the next thirty minutes... contradictory, I know. Until next time then!

-James

Watching an irregular clock

Ah, I know that it's been quite awhile since my last entry, and there isn't much to say (write), even now. I have decided, however, that it's important to check in every once in a while. It's about 0042 (12:42 A.M.) Oh, wait, it's 12:43 now, never mind.

I've still been waiting for something to happen, though unbeknown to myself as to what that it may be, I eagerly await any possible things to happen; I sure hope that something does. I've been, as the title reads, watching as time goes by, observing things, people watching, trying to find something just a little more intriguing to peak my interest than the last thing that came by before. It's been probably over a month now, since I've last posted about something, so it feels quite nostalgic to read familiar posts again from a bit ago.

As of now I've been checking with an application that I assigned for my local Burger King. (tm) (I don't wish to receive any emails from an attorney about how I performed an act of copyright infringement, so it's best to just add the "tm" tag to be safe) I originally applied because I was told that the place was hiring, though after two consecutive weeks of checking the application, I was frankly told that he was not hiring, so I found that to be frustrating, to say the least.

So, here I sit, writing about my things that I do every so-often, in the hopes that I shall soon have a job, which would be nice. Besides that, my cousin has returned from North Dakota and is back here in my home, how it was briefly before.

I suppose we'll see what happens next.
