WEEKEND UPDATE You know, I should write preliminary drafts of these things before Sunday night, because I always forget what happened on Friday. I do remember the Lunch Table Conversation to be exceedingly humorous, but the particular reasons for it being so I can't seem to recall. I think I spent the evening goofing around on this stupid computer. Wuagh. On Saturday I went to Miami University (Ohio) and czeched that out. It's a pretty darn cool looking place, but it doesn't beat Northwestern. I mean, it's nice, but it's still number two. Also, one must, apparently, rent carpet for one's dorm room, which just plain strikes me as BIZZARRE. Yeah. After that, I got home at like threeish, and spent the afternoon coding to make this website randomly load in one of two marvelous styles, with more to come. The comments are still in the original blue, I'm not sure if I want to change that, or, even if I do, how to make them match the page that was loaded. But, that's a job for another Samstag. That evening I spent replacing the smart cards in all our DirecTV recievers, for who knows what reason. The DirecTV morons must be afraid of people spoofing IDs and getting free TV, or something. Bah, I say. And double bah. Church was pretty good, spent the afternoon with my crew from there at my hizzy. Watched some movies (Evolution, Royal Tenenbaums), ate pizza Individual Post | Comments (4) 23:38 0211.21 Knock 'em out the box, Luke Another incredibly dull and boring day at school. Blech. Blech. Triple blech. Chemistry was good, Slept all afternoon. Woke up, had dinner, beat Zeonic front. Although now I get to play through it again with harder baddies but I've got Dom Troppen and Funfs and Gouf Customs and all sorts of L337 Zeonic 8H|7. A WINNER IS ME. Individual Post | Comments (2) 18:51 0211.18 WEEKEND UPDATE So I never wrote that one for last week. Oh well. It's sitting around on my palm pirate or something. I spent all Friday afternoon into Saturday watching the super mega extended cut blah blah blah dual shock support 64 version of Lord of the Rings-- a four hour movie plus six hours of extra stuff. And that doesn't count the multiple commentary tracks. I/O WRITE ERROR -303: 0 BYTES LEFT ON DISK Seriously, though. That's a lot of information. I spent the rest of Saturday monkeying around with the house network with my uncle to get everything running. Howver, I still haven't gotten forking ntpd to work, dangit. I NEED MY CLOCKS ACCURATE WUAGH Sunday was uneventful. I mean, really uneventful. I think I pissed el Baile off or something, but, uh, whatever. His loss. Went to lunch with Los Burkos at a mexican restaraunt, Anthony talked to me about his CS class in which they are writing a compiler, and about assembly language and wowee computers are interesting. Yeah. And then I think I slept. And worked on my college essays. But mainly slept. Guy Montag was pretty good-- I'm currently working on a CSS scheme for this site that will match the colors of this copy of The Fountainhead Doggimus Maximus reccommended I czech out from the Individual Post | Comments (0) 21:56 0211.11 WEEKEND UPDATE Chicago northwestern Three words: MMM WEEKEND TASTY. Seriously. Didn't do much on Samstag except screw around on the net and then in the evening the fam and I went up to Chicago. Okay, okay, Evanston, but wah wah wah. It's in the Chicago(en) Metropolitan Area, it gets El trains, Metra, and Tranist Authority busses, it's spoonying Chicago for all I freaking care, dagnabit. Yeah, stayed in a hotel (I want to say hostel but that just has to mean something entirely different in English, waugh) which was old, and nice. On Sunday, did stuff at th school-- you know, listen to old people blather on about random college stuff. After which, all us "prospies", as we wold later be called by our student hosts went to dinner at one of their newer cafeterias, which was full of the leet. Afterwards, I went to the residence college I was to stay at overnight. You see, NU has this residence college thing, where you live with other dorks who have similar majors, and one gets points for doing stuff like hosting prospies and can eventually work onself into a single room, which is most excellent. Because, you know, the absolute minimum resemblance to summer camp as possible is most optimal. That last sentance would be fun to run through baelfish, fuahahahaha. So anyway, went to sleep at 2 AM Chicago time,and woke up at8 andwent back to the hotel since everybody was taking midterms. Yeah, like I want to go watch people take a test. Yeah, standard return trip, etc. Individual Post 22:59 0211.8 Welsh Five Woohoo. Yeah, I normally cover Fridays in the standard Weekend Update, but, due to the screwyness of this week, I'm writing one for Friday, and then doing one for Saturday-Monday, and then a Tuesday, per usual. So, another one of these super-short half days at skizzool. Nothing there of any import-- dang is school boring without lunch, seriously. Invited Seamus and Doggimus Maximus over to the hizzy afterwards, hung out, had tacos, played video games, blah blah blah. Slept or soemthing the rest of the afternoon, although, before that, I got a haircut, which was full of the good, I guess. It's not too short, which is important. In the everning, went to the symphony downtown. Had some steak first at one of the bigshot restaraunts (which pales in comparison to The Mafiaraunt, but was still good). Ribeye, steak fries, tomato juice, pumpernickel, coke, mushrooms, shrimp cocktail, a bit of rasberry cheescake, but not necessarily in that order. Oh, the symphony was awesome, as should be expected. Here's the lowdown from the program. INDIANAPOLIS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
CLASSICAL SERIES / Program FiveMARIO VENZAGO, Music Director Raymond Leppard, Conductor Laureate Jack Everly, Principal Pops Conductor Friday, November 8, 2002 at 8 p.m. Saturday, November 9, 2002 at 8 p.m. ANNE MANSON, Conductor GLORIA CHENG, Piano BARTOK Romanian Folk Dances -Jocul cu bⴡ -Br -Pe loc -Buciumeana -Poarga rom⮥asca -Maruntel -Maruntel HARRISON Concerto for Piano -Allegro -Stampede, Allegro -Largo -Allegro moderato Gloria Cheng, Piano Intermission STRAVINSKYP鴲ouchka (1947 revision) -The Shrovetide Fair -Petrouchka's Cell -The Moor's Cell -The Fair (towards evening) Yeah, buy, borrow, or steal. It was pretty dang good. The stuff by Harrison, a contemporary composer (or whatever) was done with some alternate note temperament. I'm no musical expert, but from the way the program described it, the sharps and flats and stuff are tuned a little different from the main sequence, so that they make 4ths and 5ths of each other, or something. (The specific variation or whatever for those in the know wis 'Kirnberger's #2 well-temperament', yeah.) It sounded pretty cool. Also, according to Seamus, our team recieved TEH WIN over McCutchawhatever. Now the football team is off to Regionals, w00t. They better win state, dangit-- getting off an entire school day when they did in '96 so totally roxxored. Individual Post | Comments (5) 23:44 0211.5 Kiddly-winks DUDE, LIKE, I HAVE THIS PROGRAM, AND IT'S CALLED KAZAA, AND I LIKE DOWNLOADED SPIDERMAN TWO WEEKS BEFORE IT CAME OUT ON DVD! But, seriously. I won't make fun of stupid freshmen w4r3z k|dd|3z in German Club. . . at least, until I get to that part of today's chronology. . . Yeah, so anyway, Stuco in the morning, but I woke up late so I didn't bother driving, which made for problems later on in the day in regards to returning home. Yeah, but, anyway, that was fun. Seniors are still in the lead for the Class Competition (03 VAVY), and I'm now chairman of the Monopoly Tournament committee, so yeah, YES. Uh, school was fairly boring, as usual. My Chem teacher (aka SEAMUS' MOM) was back today, so 'w00t w00t no more subsitute' or whatever. Lunch was fairly boring, I don't even remember what I ate-- I didn't bring my lunch becuse of said late awakage, so it was some scool garbage. I know I had some pears, and that Dole Strawberry Orange Banana juice, eventhough I'm not that big a fan of the Banana. Bah. Must not have been any important conversations, then. Calculus class is becoming more bizzarre and qasuiunruly every day. Although it's funny to hear the guys in the back of the room repeatedly slamming each other, you know-- I'd like to do math in peace, for once? Also, what's with all these people doing their groupwork around me, now? I mean, two people was fine and was quite condusive to correct answers and even enjoyable and all, but, like, 5 or whatever? Seriously. It's forking hard to do math when some there's somebody blurting HOW DID YOU DO THAT ONE and sticking a pencil on my worksheet while I'm trying to do math in my head. I mean, you know, a Beowulf Cluster might be good at performing multitasking computational operations, but, the last time I checked, my brain wasn't several hundred off-the-shelf PCs networked together. After school, I had two meetings-- firstly, the senior class officers including Yours Truly had to figure out what to do with the extra cash in the senior class fund, which we're mainly going to apply to making various stuff cheaper throught the year, per my suggestion (as opposed to blowing it on some somethingorother). Yeah, and then German Club. I am beginning to despise German Club-- no, I don't want to hear your smartass comments, stupid freshmen. FURGERBLAPH Took a nice long nap after school. Mmmm. . . . Oh, and for dinner, carry out Bravo's. MMM CHICKEN PARMESEAN TASTY. Oh, is this election day or something? XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD Individual Post | Comments (2) 22:33 0211.3 Weekend Update Yeah, so, this weekend was fun. Went to the football game-- woohoo, we won same way we did last time. Moving on to the Regionals or Sectionals the Third or however the ladder goes this year. Some fat ugly redneck drunk-out-of-their-minds middle-age fools from Avon threw their White Castle garbage in the back of my truck as I walked up to it. I didn't feel like yelling at them, but, I pointed out to them that they did it. Meh. My parental units were having a party for church fiolks at the time, which was just finishing up as I returned home. One of the little kids that was there told me "YOU COME FROM CHURCH" in an intonation that made me think of the Coneheads, although him being about two means he'd have no idea about "WE COME FROM FRANCE." Took the SATIIs over at Carmel-- Spanish w/ Listening, Writing, US History. The voices on the Spanish were the same people that did out Spanish books, the AP test, the National Spanish Exam, etc.-- so crezzy! XD XD XD One of the best bits of the test was selecting thre correct verbal spoken sentance for a picture in the test book. A picture of a merry-go-round (that's the thing with the horses, right) said something along the lines of "Con estos caballos, nosotros volveremos a casa muy temprano." Which, of course, translates to "With these horses, we will return home very early." BWAHAHAHA XD XD I got the History done with like, 20 minutes to spare, although I didn't know the answers to a few questions, but, still. Yeah. The 'A-block' (as it is apparently called) of Carmel High School is so increadibly bleary-- dull brown and bluegray wallweave and tile, no windows or posters in the hallway, blech. According to the Megs it's just that section-- furthermore, I do remember the part where I took some classes in the summer between 8th and 9th grade to be quite nice and similar in style to nostrum Magnum Pergula. (that's wrong somehow, I know it). It's almost like the old Middle School was, except CHS has hallways that are more than 50 inches wide. Oh, yeah, after I was done with the thing, I saw the Colombian outside CHS. He is so awesome. He was taking the SATI-- I guess he's going to go to college here, which is totally awesome. We need more dudes like him here. Blah blah blah politics blah. Yeah, on Sunday, went to church, blah blah blah. The Fam and I Yen Chingged it, and then I went home because I was going to do an English project. However, for some reason the other group members decided it'd be best to do in an AOL chiznat, yeah. Got AOL8 while I was at it-- even more clunky GUI and extra startup crap, no wonder it's for forking annoying. If it weren;t for the fact that I've had that one email address since 1998, BLAUGH. Played some more GTA Vice City-- totally leet, you know. And that's about it for the weekend, I think. Eventhough I can't remember what I did Saturday night. Blah. Individual Post | Comments (0) |
