Worst day of 2009?

Maybe the emo crap I joked about in my previous post will actually come true. Terrible day for me, really. I have a test that I am completely unprepared for tomorrow, two labs due that I haven't even started on, also due tomorrow. Also, someone wasted an hour of my life today during our recording session by setting up recording equipment after we were ready, then finding out it doesn't work, then frantically running around trying to make it work. Fail.

Also, something much worse than everything above added together happened, except I mention anything specific on this blog at this moment. Perhaps after the dust has settled, I'll write a little more about it.

Must get to those labs now. FML

I don't feel like going to school tomorrow. Just sitting at home and doing nothing sounds good.

Ughh...

I've just noticed that the title of this blog is the same as the title of that simple plan song. However, my life is nowhere as emo as simple plan's. All they talk about is like my life is so miserable im all alone no one loves me no one cares cut my wrists lets all die etc.

Anyways, not much happened the past couple of day. The usual, you know. School's starting again tomorrow. Not too happy about waking up early and classes, but at least I get to see my friends again. I spray painted my desktop white, so it looks pretty cool now. Planning to put some designs on it later. Also added another harddrive, floppy drive (i have no idea why i need one) and both optical drives working. Its kinda cool. I know I am a geek.

Time to sleep now. Need to wake up tomorrow to go to school. Oh joy.

This blog is becoming really dull... I think the neglecting stage that all my previous blogs/sites have suffered from is starting. Its the beginning of the end! (Again!)

Birthdays!

So I haven't posted for like 3 days now and it seems that no one reads this blog anymore.

Anywho, the 23rd was my sisters bday and the 24th was Abi's bday and that means FUN! Well, not really my sisters bday wasn't all that great but Abi's sure was. Coldstone cake 2 days in a row, Ninos, arcade, Bellagios, and just awesome great fun. :)

I wonder if anyone still uses floppy drives...

It's been a great break so far. However, I think I'm gonna have to start working soon, because I still haven't started any of it yet. :(

My accomplishment of the day

Ok so I am hardware obsessed. I have a thing for taking apart expensive electronic things and putting them back together. I have taken apart both my laptops twice, to add RAM and to clean the fan, etc. I've built my own desktop, and I've been upgrading it ever since, adding and replacing fans, and as of today, added a new optical drive.

Anyways, before I get into that lets go over my day. I had dim sum for lunch. It was really good because I love canto food, although the food was so slow and I was so hungry waiting for it. When I got home in the afternoon, I practiced a bit with part of my band, Mich and Jimmy, and played some guitar hero because Jimmy never played it before.

Since my old desktop died on me, it became more of a spare parts inventory than a computer, so I took it apart and decided that I could use the cd-rom drive and the floppy drive in my current desktop. I carefully, well, not really, plugged everything in. Guess what? Nothing worked.

Ok to make a long story short, I tried everything I could and failed and I was so confuzzled. (Jess uses that word too). My dad walks in and I'm like DAD IT DOESNT WORKKKKK!!! and he was like oh... and he took the optical drive out and moved a jumper on the back to set it to slave to match the master drive I already had. AND IT WORKED! AMAZING! So I now have newfound respect for my dad's technology ability. I guess those old school skills are still useful sometimes.

So my accomplishment of the day is I learned how to use jumpers! Yay for me. Ok you probably don't care, but if you've bothered to read this far down this blog post, you either really care about me and/or you're a geek. EDIT: because as jess pointed out, you can really care about AND be a geek too. :)

Time to go. Later.

Spring break

SPRING BREAK YEAH!!!

Finally, a change of work, from schoolwork to sat/ap test prep work. How exciting, although I think I will probably get more sleep this way.

Ok so I am really tired I think I'm gonna go do something really unproductive until I fall asleep.

Good day to you.

School sucks

Ok, so maybe not all of it sucks. For one, that's where I met most of my friends. But other than that, yeah it pretty much sucks. Euphemisms they come up with these days for deprivation of ones childhood...

Lots of work I must do so I will post more tomorrow.

1 more day... then FREEDOM! Well, not really, but it's slightly better than school. :)

Day Two

Hey all,

Second day. And still posting :)

My random topic today will be my huge list of nicknames people call me by.

My real name is rarely if ever heard. Even some of my teachers have stopped using it. So here's the list:

1. Mikey
2. Lau
3. Lauey
4. PP
5. puppy
6. Mao Ze Dong (MZD)
7. Mikdik
8. Michael the Freshman
9. Collective Fitch
   

Hmm... thats all I can think of for now. And strangely enough, I answer to almost all of them. As for where they came from, in 7th grade, my science teacher Ms. Newcomb first called me Mikey. The nickname has stuck ever since. I think people call me Lau because we have too many Michaels. Lauey is what Ms. Siew first started calling me. I have no idea why she just added a "y" sound onto my last name and decided to call me that. PP stands for... umm about 5 different things, including princess porcupine, perverted puppy, purple peanut, and some other stuff I can't remember. It was 7th grade ok? The princess and peanuts stuff dissapeared, but PP stuck for some reason. Mao Ze Dong is completely random... I still dont get it MICHELLE. Mikdik I dont get either, but Andy calls me that sometimes.

EDIT: Ok so apparently Mikdik is one word, according to Andy, so I've just changed that. Also, I've added 8 and 9 to the list. Apparently in the eyes of pretty much all the seniors in MUN, I will be a Freshman forever. Theyre graduating soon so I only have 4 months of pseudo-Freshmanity left, although I'm really a Junior. As for why I'm called the collective fitch... yeah. Go figure.

Ok time to do more AP Bio. Cant wait till spring break. 2 more days...

The one and only FIRST blog post

Greetings to all,

This is my first blog post and I am now starting it at exactly 11:00pm. Honestly my reason for starting this post? Because my friend Jessica made one and she wanted me to make one too. After this, she will be two posts ahead of me so we're both relatively new to this blogsite.

So, I have a whole bunch of tests and projects due later this week. School really sucks. It's really a euphemism for deprivation of ones childhood. And on top of all my normal work, I have to worry about getting into college. No life much?

Anyways, I should be getting work done right now. Let's see how long I can keep this blog running for. I haven't exactly had a great track record with things require consistent effort and attention.

That's it for now. More later.

EDIT: It's 11:11. make a wish. Also, happy St. Patricks day!
