Well I get to drive back home today hurray for four hours in a bloody car.
In other news I actually went and calculated my net worth in RS....140 Million.
A lot more than I thought :D Decided to go for 99 agility though it will probably take me till Christmas :(
Matt: Hope the computer building goes well. Haven't gotten around to checking my email for a bit, sorry :P
And yeah....had a major computer issue over a week ago which resulted in a massive reformat. Haven't even gotten aim/msn/wtfever back yet which would explain why I've dropped off the planet to the lot of you. Meh had exams this and last week anyway :p

Happy Halloween to the lot of you. Haven't really been on LJ for a bit...too absorbed in RS and College at the time.
Finished Mai Otome Zwie, kicked as but as I predicted ended rather quickly. Needs more Shiho and Shizuru.
Watched Gundam Wing subbed, much better than dubbed though I firmly believe the subs were merely closed captions of the English dub, I don't speak Japanese but I have been watching anime for almost ten years and quite frankly there are a lot of lines and phrases which I 'know' when I hear. A few of these came up during the series and was not subbed as I would expect it to be, switched over to the dub with subs still on and sure enough perfect match :| Kudos to whoever managed that sub :\
I'm breaking away from the 'middle class' of RS of having a net worth of 10-30 mil to the 'upper-middle class' of having a net worth of 30-70 mil (these numbers and 'classes' are completely made up by me but seem to be appropriate.) I owe most of my recent financial gains to the new God Wars dungeon. Tripled my net worth in a month ;D
Also I'm a member of a clan now, never was one for clans but this one struck me as different. Well worth it to be honest. Thankfully I got the net admin at college to loosen the restrictions on the ports RS uses so I no longer lag and 'whitescreen' during wars (which is the absolute worst time to lag as I die quickly, my clan loses a fighter for the war and all my armor and food I didn't eat because I was lagging falls right into the enemy's hands. Go me)
But anyway, doing well in college. Pissed that torrents don't work on campus anymore, and grateful that I have a knack for finding alternate methods.

Got the good spot in my room though, so all is well in terms of spacial organization....

Summer is over already, there go my LR, RR, and Center speakers, ....still can't believe it....
I'm heading back to college for a nice 4 hour drive tomorrow bright and early and since I'm bringing this computer with me, I'll be disconnecting it. As I type this I am disconnecting it actually, first removing the unneeded fluff before taking the whole system down, there go my headphones, So wish me luck in not hitting another deer when I do the drive up :o!! I'm sure all will go well so long as I get my, there goes my second monitor, morning dew and something to eat before I leave. I need to get to, there goes the mousepad, college early so I get to the room before my, there goes the flash drive and sd card, roommate gets there...I need to arrange the room a bit more to my liking from what I'm sure he will and first one there gets to set up their spot as they please, there goes the left speaker, second one there makes do with the room which is left and I'm tired of being the second one there each year.
Oh well, just going to finish loading up my car and make a phonecall tonight to Charity and then, there goes the interne-

So I'm back from visiting Charity and I had a great time....I now like that stupid game 'Guitar Hero' and a certain band which she is rather enamored by :o. I also discovered I am apparently no longer allergic to cats, or at least hers. Thank goodness as I intend on having one in the future.
However, yesterday was not so pleasing, I had a knot in my stomache the entire day (which is rare for me as I tend to never be stressed) and went to bed feeling sick, here I am having just woke up and I'm not feeling any better, bloody hell.

| Wild morning |
[10 Jul 2007|01:08pm] |
So at about 11 I am woken by my cellphone, didn't get to it in time but I saw it was from my grandmother. I decided to get up and go downstairs, have something to drink and call her back. So I see there is a message on the answering machine downstairs and I listen to it while I grab my drink. It's my grandmother and she wants me to tell my parents she's going to the ER for chest pains. So I quickly call my father as my mother is away in Albany and he tells me to immediatly go down to her house, I do so. Keep in mind I've yet to shower or eat and in desperation I threw on dirty clothes as they were the closest at the time.
I speed down to her place and honk the horn. Nothing. I knock on her door and windows, still nothing. I call her house and it's busy.... at this point I'm rather scared so I break into her house (without damaging anything being the sneaky guy I am) and much to my relief, she is gone. Upon further inspection I notice one of her phones wasn't properly placed on the base hence it was never hung up.
I call my father and he tells me to quickly go to St. Lukes Hospital as it is my grandmother's preferred hospital. On the way there I start to sweat profusely as it's noon and hot as hell and my AC doesn't work due to interferance with a deer over a year ago. So here I am dirty, unshowered, unshaven, and sweating as I speed down to the hospital with my tank pretty much on E and my wallet at my house. Around this time I notice a stinging pain in my arm and upon closer inspection I see that I cut my elbow when I was jumping through her window which I forced open (which is 5 1/2 feet off the ground and which fell and closed on me twice as I was pulling my way through it :| ). I finally get there and of course the closest parkingspot is on the other side of the hospital.
So here I am walking in the sun, sweating, bleeding, and smelling, I look like I'M the one who should be in the hospital. When I get in it takes 5 different people giving me directions before I can even find the ER, but when I do I find her. She is happy to see me and says she's feeling 100% and says she's about ready to go, but obviously she cannot leave as one admitted to the hospital they insist on running tests to make sure she's good to go. I joke with her for a moment while she fills out the last of her forms and goes down to where she will be staying for the time being, I sit and talk with her as they draw blood and whatnot, and I call my father to update him on the situation. I told her I'd be back in a couple hours to check on her being that I desperatly need a shower and a change of clothes, breakfast wouldn't hurt either @_@.
Thank god she's doing alright though, as we are very close and I would prefer she attended my wedding whenever I actually have one :\
In other news, my arm is patched up and I'm on my way to the shower, so I'm doing ok too.

Summer is boring, though busy. More hours at work which means more money but less time to spend it.
Also major breakthrough in my R&D department: Hair dryer+cold toilet seat= Win.
Also I just clipped my fingernail too short as I made this entry....fuck ouch.

To wait for Mai Otome Zwei I decided to obtain Rozen Maiden and it's sequel. I've been watching it since last week and I'm fairly pleased. This is the second anime I have decided to watch based on trends on 4chan /b/ (the first being Magical Pokkan) I downloaded a raw of Mai Otome Zwei episode three however being a raw I could only understand bits and peices so I decided to wait for a set of subs.
My foot has recovered, I've been playing CS again, and I still hate Final Fantasy VII.

Back at home and back at my warehouse job for the city. Lucky enough to close late last night and open early this morning. Additionally lucky enough to get in two accidents today. First of which I was smashed in the face with a board about half an inch thick, 3 feet wide, and 12 feet long, left a dent in my forehead and I was bleeding from the bridge of my nose.
After this I was pretty much fine, had a bandage on my nose but I was alright.....until about an hour was left in my shift and my coworker lowered the stockpicker on the back of my foot (ankle-heel area), the stock picker is a forklift with a platform on the forks which weighs about 8 tons, suffice to say my foot is rather beat up, had to fill out an incident report and everything.
Pain.

Guess who just arrived home after a five hour drive. Usually takes three...but 2/3rds of the way was horrible fog and thunder and lightning and christ probably snow. As soon as I'm done unloading my car I will be taking a well deserved rest. Took two exams, loaded my life into a car, drove five hours straining my eyes, and unloading my life from the car....-_-

One exam remains, just got back from my Biopsych exam which I feel went well. Also got my report back which I did an all-nighter on last week because I never do things beforehand. I am quite surprised at what I got (96) in that I don't feel I deserved it. Perfect points on all parts except citations (as I never seem to cite correctly I think I invented my own MLA-APA hybride form of citation which only I understand) but either way as soon as I finish my stats exam in 3 hours I am making an mp3 cd, packing up, and driving for several hours south-west-ward to my little home in CNY. I won't be returning here for a few months.
And no I haven't seen the film yet but I will tomorrow night with Matt, then I shall give my judgement which will likely be a review consisting of five words or less. Also, new icon in celebration of what is bound to be the greatest scene in the movie. (that statement is a compliment of the scene not an insult of the movie mind you)
Reminds me of my extreme ego. ;D

Never felt the online IQ tests exhibited much validity...however after getting the same score within 10 points on dozens over the years I'm beginning to think perhaps their accuracy, while it may be low, can be corrected for by taking several of them.
Either way, this more recent test stolen from Jin places me in the 140-150 range yet again.

Any good free audio converters out there? Don't tell me to google it I have and everything I've found either gives you 5 uses or cuts part of the song out. The current one I use is pretty much only good for ripping opening themes because I can just rip an extra minute and then trim what it doesn't cut out.
I need something decent. At the very least I need to take .wma and turn it into a .mp3. More would be great but not urgently needed.

Can anyone recommend to me a good gamer quality mouse pad? I'm in the market for one because the last one I got which had a surface to each side of it (one for fast mousing one for more controlled mousing) only lasted six months. That's right, both sides are now smooth as a baby's ass and the bumps on the pad were what made it fast. So can anyone recommend to me a mousepad which will hold up to my computing needs? I need something very durable as I use the computer more often than most and I want something decent. My mouse is opitical. I'd prefer something average sized as my computer desk at school is anything but large and I'm short enough on space with 5 speakers and two monitors.
And in other news I went around looking on the official webiste and apparently I have to wait until the 25th of May for Mai Otome Zwei OAV ep. 3. WTF I can't wait that long, what is wrong with them?

Bleach cliffhangers of the past few weeks have been driving me fucking nuts. The only thing worse than a great show that's only on once a week is one which always ends in a cliffhanger. It's the same with Mai Otome Zwei however with Otome I have to wait months so I forget about it eventually. All week long save 21 minutes I'm waiting for Bleach episode 120+x.
