Last Day of Work!

This was my last day of work today. While helping organize stuff in the shift, I put together this wooden block tower out of the space blocks that are used to pad the brackets. A guy on the other line tried to knock it over with a block he threw (which it resisted) and even the forklift guy tried to shake up the cage to make it fall down (which it only fell down partially!). Most of the folks there had a good laugh out of it, so there’s that.

 

ETSU, here I come.

Update – Moving!

Word can’t quite describe what’s going through my head at the moment; I’m finally moving to somewhere else to go to ETSU! Definitely uncertain territory I’m heading into, but I’m also eager and excited. At least I’ll know some familiar faces up there, as my cousin and sister will be attending. Too bad I don’t have a roommate, though.

 

As I still have two more whole months till school stars, the process will be slow and drawn-out in between of work. But the process has begun, nonetheless. It’s official; I have another place than the rural country backwoods of Parrottsville to call home, even if its for a little while.

Yesterday I realized a lot of things. One of them was that autumn was really here.

It was chilly, the wind was blowing, and it was cold enough I considered a jacket. Some of the pumpkin plants had already died, and the only things that were left were other pumpkins, jalapeno peppers, okra, and a lettuce.

I discovered what I thought to be spinach turned out to be an echinacea flower. I was surprised. I had waited months and months to see what the “mystery plant” was, knowing it wasn’t a normal vegetable of some sort. I sense an object lesson but can’t seem to find it…probably need to reflect more.

So much time has passed…a lot of things have happened, but big picture wise, a lot of things just seem to revert back to normal, with a negative effect following. I found a written journal that I haven’t done anything with in 20 months. School assignments from Geography keep popping up here and there. Hair from my cosplay wig showed up last night…it’s all a reminder of the past four years of my life.

I’m in a reflective but regretful mood, but still looking what can be done, and how to leave to where I need to go…

Apologies for not being able to write a blog sooner. School has been very taxing and time-consuming for me, and when I wasn’t doing either, I was out of energy. Nevertheless, here goes.

Academic progress seems satisfactory so far. I have poured in hours to studying math, and though it looks like I didn’t hit rock bottom, I still need to continue to study that even harder. Art seems fun, Geography is a little bit of a drag due to a very cold room and a 3 hour length class, and Western Civ because of all the people packed around me.

I’m not going to explain all my problems to bore you, but I’m not doing well for the moment. Attempting to be upbeat every single day with no place to plug in and charge up your upbeat battery drains you after a while. I haven’t been able to charge for weeks…

Besides that, started liking Steampunk genre style and cosplaying, so working on that. Fish are doing fine, Orion needs tuning and maintenance.

Signing off for now.

Okay, here the blog for the last time this week until the beginning of next week. Sorry for no blog yesterday….

Finally finished my art trades. I’m really happy about that. 😀 Actually, I have one request and one more pending, but the two that were high priority are now finished.

I got hold of Advent Rising for XBox and The Swan Princess on DVD; I finally own them! Thanks to Brandon for the suggestion of the game, and thanks to T for letting me watch the Swan Princess ages ago…

That’s about it for right now. I’ll keep you updated,

Wow, I haven’t typed a blog in two days.that definitely qualifies me to type on early in the day on a Wednesday.

Monday was semi-okay; just busy a lot. Mom’s relatives are over, and today’s the first day we’re actually getting to visit with them.

Yesterday, I went to a Halo tournament in Morristown. I took my brother with me, and we took our XBox over with our four controllers. Pp was there, so my brother and I were set on one team, while Pp was on another. It was a stalemate; Keith came over to play some, but Andrew as the only person on my team who could steadily kill Pp. I hope we do better on our next one…

Today wasn’t so bad. It appears that the Orion would need to be aligned as well as get the part replaced.

Nickelback’s song If Everyone Cared struck me somewhere in my heart somewhere…I think its maybe both ends; people not being nice to be, and especially lately, me not being nice to people.

I feel a little upset because of Mom attempting to make my computer time to zero. Just because I use it a few minutes at home does not mean that I can’t use it at Starbase 7! I don’t have Internet there! Especially now that the semester’s pretty over.

I’m going home so that I can sleep and get ready for my Precalculus Trigonometry Final tomorrow. Somehow I don’t think it will turn out great, but I need to do the best I can.

Not a lot to say today, since I’m extremely short on time. I did my biology final today; saw some people I’d probably not see on a regular basis again unless they meet up during the summer or take the class in the next semester. I feel weird on the last day of class; happy yet sad at the same time.

I think I’ll take up someone’s offer on attending a anime convention with her. If all goes well, and permission is granted, and I save up enough money, I’ll go to a long distance trip sometime. This is not definite, just speculation.

Okay, here goes.

I finally figured out several Gundam Seed/Destiny terms, including what a N-Jammer Canceller is. That’s been an interesting read so far…

I am sort of feeling down lately, but I don’t have a rant. I’m just empty right now. At least I have some people I can talk online, but it doesn’t help when there’s nobody to confide in. It bothers me when you’re not allowed to socialize and be outgoing if it comes up (strict Indian parents), and nobody calls you on your phone. As a matter of fact, it’s only my Dad using it as a pager to do something.
