Parmesian Chicken is calling me~..

Meh…It sucks when I have to come into school three hours earlier then I’m supposed to, even though I enjoyed my time here thoroughly. I came in to get some extra credit from my COM-1010 teacher- that’s Josh- but the only time open was around 4-ish, today. The extra credit is to have an interview between myself and another person; this person could be a student in the class or our teacher, really. Either way, we went on about all sorts of stuff. From my life as it stands now, to what I plan on doing, to how my projecting myself as a lazy person is making me lazy, and so on. I even told him about my adventure in Baltimore, which he thought was very funny; I don’t know if I’ll ever let myself get accustomed to city movement, even though I know I’ll have to acclimate myself one of these days.

In order to pass the time a bit- aside from my blog, the webcomics, and the turn-based games I play- I’ve brought along my Memoirs of a Geisha book. And while it’s come to mind, I’d just like to say that I have an excessive amount of books. Every Wednesday I have a sort of routine; my mom doesn’t have work, so it sort of works out like this: Wake up a bit earlier then is comfortable, go to Smile (A Christian charity sort of thrift store. Considering my lack of faith, I feel like I’m about to get struck down by lightning every time I step into that place. But the books there are bought $.50 for softcover and $1 for a hardcover, so I’m happy. =D), get about a dozen or so books, and then go to Guido’s (Yes, my Guido’s) for that all-you-can-eat buffet they have every morning. The trouble with that is while I’ve been getting one hell of a deal, the number of books have been accumulating faster then I can either read them or find space for them. I already have two bookcases; one is in my room, while the other’s in the ‘family room’ that’ll be a library in a year or two. Mine’s full with books and anime, and the other’s packed with books- again, mostly mine. The point is that my room is currently a wreck right now because of the lack of space I have for these things. I guess that’s the price of knowledge, although something just dawned on me.

Maybe that’s why my mom says I “don’t wake up” in time for going to Smile. =( Weak.

In either case, Magic: the Gathering worked out well. Planar Chaos made its debut, and I’m happier for it; not because I did well at all despite my incredibly awesome deck, but because I managed to trade for two Damnations. =D And if you don’t know what Damnation is, look it up. It’s a card that’s worth about $21-ish at the moment, although I expect the price will drop a bit over time. I’m half-tempted to sell them for the money, but something tells me that I won’t. =( Damn my sympathietic nature.

As for anime…Well, bah. I haven’t had the time, energy or money to really put an effort into it; the big reason why I have been going to FNM is because it’s been free. =B I still have the first disc of Love Hina that I’ve yet to watch, despite how good I’ve heard it is; that, along with my series of Outlaw Star and a few other things means that I still have a whole hell of a lot of catching up to do. I haven’t even played through my Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess game, or really any other game for that matter. It’s very…Frustrating, when in the school year I feel as if my school, work, and school work seem to completely consume me to the extent that I have no life left afterwards. I thoroughly enjoy the classes that I’ve gone to thus far; Mr. Kane, although making me feel as if I’m in a Roast every time I step into his class, is by far one of the more engimatic and memorable instructors I’ve ever had. Ms. J (Jenkins) remembers when I was struggling by in her class, and has been the metaphorical boot in my ass whenever I remember how I went from credit to audit. And Josh is by far the most personable teacher I’ve ever had the opportunity to sit down and speak with. My only worry is my Java class, which is entirely web-based, and taking the time to read up the chapters I need to. I need to stop procrastinating and get my ass in gear; otherwise, I’ll never be able to see the world.

..And I wasn’t lying when I said some Parmesian Chicken’s calling me. While $2.25 for a little chicken sandwich is extortion, Ninshan’s hungreh. =B Rawr. Then Geisha-time until class starts.
