02.28.02
- Lots of things Lots of things has happened since I last updated and is one of the reasons why I hadn't done so in a while. One of the reasons was my current diplomacy with my family. I replied to my mom's email with some statements that my uncle at Chicago told me. I was simply telling my mom what he said to me but apparently, like always, they take it the wrong way. I just decided to say I believed what he said as to avoid any more mess if I would have denied it. They think I am accusing them of all the things I have said which pisses me the hell off. Well if that's how they feel, then I guess I can't do anything about it. I won't come home anymore and just stay in the service for as long as I can support my own life. I will probably live with Hee Doo so that I wouldn't be in my own apartment all alone. Besides, he would be finished with college by the time my plan takes into effect. I have also encountered some interesting people since I got here. One of them was during my first false indoctrination day. He was very weird because he made this 'group' thing we formed such a big deal. It turns out he's a fucking asshole. He wanted to ditch me to go with Bryan one time instead Bryan and I ditched him and he told me about his plan. I won't forget that. The first night we were here, I treated him to a Japanese dinner. After that incident, he couldn't even give me a fucking donut. Now I know how messed up he is. I hope he fucking burns in hell with a dick stuck up his ass. I cancelled my polls service and my geocities domain name because I decided I didn't want to make this website, a mere way of venting, an expense. I also decided to start an Everquest account which I think I will also cancel. I am thinking of starting in Dark Age of Camelot. Now that I think about it, I don't know if I will delete the EQ account. I was thinking of saving a ton of money and buy an account. Tonight at midnight, I get paid. Things I am planning on buying are a backpack, preferably The North Face, casual shoes like Vans, toothpaste, Dark Age of Camelot, and money to spend nights at Capcom. I am estimating the paycheck to be about seventy dollars, the casual shoes to be about sixty dollars, toothpaste to be about ten dollars, and Dark Age of Camelot to be about forty dollars. Each all-day pass at Capcom is approximately 2100 yen. The only reason why I am buying a new pair of shoes to replace my Vans is because these Vans stink like you wouldn't believe. I should probably invest on a foot spray to neutralize the odor. Today, I saw something that probably happens a lot in the Navy. This girl, who was a hospital man, was married. Yet she is holding hands with IT3 Thomas. Ugh...just wanted to make me vomit. For one reason, she was married. For the second reason, Steve knowing that she was married. People these days are just fucked up. Which is why I have decided to not go out and find a whore. I decided not to ever sink into their level and by doing that I would be doing so. 02.16.02 - Departure day I got about 2 hours of sleep because we pretty much came late from the movies last night. We were supposed to watch Super Troopers but ended up watching Hart's War. I don't know why this movie is rated Restricted because there were hardly any violence, nudity, vulgar language at all. I guess the guts spilling onto another guy's face made it rated what it is. I didn't think this was such a short ride from Steve's house to the airport. I probably thought it was a lot longer because Kurt took us all around the city before actually going home. It's been fun here at St. Louis and I have had many new experiences during my stay. I hope and plan on coming back here with Bryan, which I'm guessing in about a year and a half. It's been a long day now and I've made several connecting flights, the last one being from Seattle. I thought it was just one connecting flight from St. Louis to Denver but from Denver I went to Seattle. It's not that bad I guess and this last plane I will be riding for today is a nine hour ride. From the time it started, I am guessing I will be at Japan approximately 10PM PST, 11PM MST, 12AM CST, 1AM EST. I hope that my parents never know about my little two week break without them knowing. I don't think they would know because it is a lengthy process of tracking me down via Navy. I'm looking at the map right now and we are currently flying over the southern region of Alaska with an outside air temperature of 46 degrees Celsius below zero. Estimated arrival time is 1537. That is just in time for me to pick up my baggage, find a bathroom, change into my uniform, find a currency exchange place, and hopefully be able to catch the 1700 buses that, according to my orders, pick up in front of Northwest check-ins. Hopefully I won't get lost on my way and hopefully I find Bryan there today. It would be pretty cool to finally see the second oldest, only multi-task aircraft carrier forwardly deployed at a foreign port. My batteries are about 40 percent right now and so I want to update my other experimental website. Well, not exactly experimental, it's just another layout I want try. If this layout stays to my liking, then maybe, just maybe I will convert. The site with this layout already is already too big to just revamp it. It would take good hours off my time which I cannot really dispense of as a new sailor onboard the carrier. I need to take care of a lot of errands when I get to my next duty station. A challenge that first meets me is finding my way there since I wasn't appointed a sponsor I was supposed to. It would have been stress much relieved from me if I had a sponsor. 02.15.02 - Pre-departure Last night, Bryan set out to and headed for the airport. Steve and Kurt took him and they spent about 5 hours at the airport. Hopefully it won't be too bad trying to find my way to the ship without getting lost. I have to make a big withdrawal before I go so I don't have to worry about finding an ATM machine there at Japanese airport. Man, my stay here has been cool. It feels like 2 weeks just passed by like nothing. Listening to these Blink 182 songs, I feel depressed again. Why am I so depressed when I think about girls? WHY? Why do I seek one for me so bad...? Is it the fear of not being able to find one if I get too old? I don't really know. I think its a compilation of mixed feelings about them. And why does Blink 182 have so much songs about girls? I guess that is mainly why I listen to them. 02.14.02 - Network snooping I've been snooping around on this network at Steve's house. I've seen some interesting information and has answered the better half of my curiosity. I've compiled a little information text file about Steve. I don't plan to use any of this information against anybody but I just like to have information. In other news, I received an instant message from Patty. Patty is this girl I had a very crush on back when I was a junior in high school till when I was a senior and she got a boyfriend. I didn't stop liking her nonetheless but I should have acted upon it. Her best friend, Lisa, said she would have gone out with me if I would have just asked her. Well you know what, I didn't. It was a sure shot deal, a win-win situation and I still didn't take it. Speaking of Patty, it is her birthday tomorrow and I have to remember to email her tonight or sometime earlier just to make sure that I am able to send one without having to worry if I will be leaving or not. I wish they had an option to send an email at a certain time. That would be pretty cool. 02.13.02 - New section coming soon I've decided to create a new section. This section will be the ranting and raving section. It will contain lots of my opinions on various topics that come across my mind. This section was inspired by the site called Rants and Raves. That site has opened up my mind on a number of topics. However, my time here at St. Louis is very limited and I am still unsure as to whether I am able to connect to the internet at my next duty station so I don't know when I will be able to implement this new section. 02.12.02 - Fast times Wow it's already Tuesday and I leave very early Saturday morning. I still have a lot of things to do like slim down my baggage from 2 check-ins and 2 carry-ons to 2 check-ins 1 carry-on. I finally finished watching AntiTrust and I thought it was a pretty good movie. It's one of those inspiring movies where anybody can be as good as the top company sort of movie. It's pretty cool because the way the movie was portrayed looked like it was implying Microsoft. Hell, the CEO of N.U.R.V. looked like Bill Gates. Hmm, some weird things have been going on around this house lately. Mel, Steve's fiancé called his work and someone said that he's not at work. We didn't think too much about it but then around 1830 hours, he came home and had a private talk with Mel. Apparently he got fired from his job and then I was too busy playing. I stopped playing briefly (server problems) and heard more. This time it was some charges and/or fines brought up against him. I don't know but they are talking about lawyers and court hearings and etc. I wonder what he did...oh well. 02.11.02 - A little change The new picture of the day is Brooke Langton. She is the cheerleader in the movie The Replacements starring Keanu Reeves. I thought she was so hot in that movie I had to get her picture to be picture of the day. Today I decided to write some emails to a couple of people. The first person was Patty which I used to have a crush on back in my high school years and I guess still won't mind going out with her I guess. The second person was Vanessa from my high school who I used to just stare at during my lunch periods. It was the same thing with Chelsea because when I first saw Chelsea I thought I'd never be able to talk to a girl like her. It turns out Chelsea liked me a lot but I was way too stupid to know it. Well I got to talk to Vanessa on my senior year but it was already too late. At least we sort of went out on a date. It was pretty cool roaming the Manhattan streets with her. I also added some wallpapers and two mp3 songs by Josie and the pussycats and Nine Inch Nails at the downloads section. I will add more when time comes... Now that I think about it, the more days I spend here at St. Louis, I wish I hadn't come here at all. Although I met some awesome guys and girls (like Jen), I also wanted to just play the leave away. I can't play the leave away because people are constantly downloading using a 10mb hub. I never thought a guy that is going into web development or someone that is going into the business of opening a cyber cafe store would be too big headed as to not use 100mb local area network hubs. He says it's 'more stable' but I say of course it's going to more stable because it's spitting out crap amounts of data. It doesn't even have collision protection and what not. So basically if one person is downloading, everyone is pretty much screwed. The things that I liked about my stay here wasn't necessarily the drinking and getting drunk aspect but I only did that just so I know what it tastes like. I also liked the part when I met Jen and I think she's the type of girl I would want to go out with. Unfortunately for me, she's already going out with a guy who happens to be cool too so I hope she's happy. 02.10.02 - Mardi Gras tonight! I was very excited and also very nervous at the same time at what was going down today. I didn't expect it to be so early because all the times I've seen people at Mardi Gras events were during night time. I saw a fair amount of breasts but as time went on, the day got sour. Kurt, Bryan, and I went with Jen, Derryn, Callie, and some other chick. We met another girl over at ground zero but she pretty much left the scene without an hour of spending time with the group. We then went over and picked a girl up, named Katie. She seemed very cute to me at first but I saw how she acted and I remember why I hate sorority girls. I tried my best not to show it to her by smiling at a few of her jokes. I mean, she was very cute and I was really attracted to her but she was way too hyperactive even for my taste. Though she reminded me of Lisa because the way she talked but I guess Lisa isn't even half as hyper as she was. Derryn and Jen was real nice. I thought they were awesome. Jen was a lot nicer to me than the other girls. Too bad I just gave her the good bye I won't ever see you again hug. 02.07.02 - Mardi Gras Today, I found out that we might be going to Mardi Gras this weekend. At first I thought we were going for sure but when I asked Bryan if he was going, he said he was going down to Chicago to get laid. I hope we go to Mardi Gras but I will only go if Bryan will go. It's not that I don't trust Kurt it's just that it won't feel right or I won't feel comfortable. I finally decided to add a download page. This download page will contain many very random things. When I say random, I mean random. Man, I've been downloading so much crap onto my hard drive. Now I really crave an external hard drive. I can't wait to get my hands on one of those 160 gigabyte hard drive. I have approximately 6.5 gigabytes left. 02.04.02 - Super Bowl and alcohol Last night was my first time drinking alcohol. Intentionally, at least. I drank half a Budweiser bottle and decided beer wasn't for me. I tasted Bryan's Smirnoff Ice and found it to my liking. I didn't drink much. Smirnoff Ice was pretty smooth and soon moved on to a margarita afterwards. Bryan and Kurt had a lot more drinks than I did. Bryan got retarded drunk and we had to drag him out when we crashed at Kurt's for the night. Kurt didn't drink as much as he would normally but he had to drive so I understand. It's a shame Hooters didn't serve us alcohol. I'm surprised the Hooter waitress was smart enough to be able to tell how old we are by our ID's. Oh and too bad the Rams lost. Today I signed up for Geocities Webmaster. I want to have my own domain for once without using namezero. I'm real tired of the damn advertisements, basically. Angeljournal.com shall soon be mine. Hopefully before I leave for Japan. I want to get the whole site setup before I leave. I've been thinking about my future education. I was thinking of either re-enlisting or after my first contract I get some type of job and get a bachelors degree in either a major in microcomputer networking, criminology, and a minor in psychology. I don't think I can afford that even after I get my Navy College Fund. Hopefully my annuities (also known as my back-up money in life) pulls through. When I get rich and if I do get rich from that annuities account, I will probably invest more. What my dream is, at the moment, is to buy a car and hook it up with all kinds of equipment. For example, a V12 engine, body kit, nitrous oxide system, and etc. So much dreams, so much to do to get there. Ah yes. 02.02.02 - Settling in Second day at Steve's house and I am in my first local area network party. The party wasn't that big because a lot of people didn't show up. We played Alien versus Predators 2 for the most part of the party. Towards night fall, we ate at Jack in the Box and I experienced some fast ride on the way and to the mall. I got to meet some of his friends like Chris and Allen. Allen is a very funny guy. I bought me The Exorcist digital video disc. I have never seen this movie but many people say this is the scariest movie of all time. I have got to find out for myself. Knowing me, I'd probably have fears of dark rooms or being alone in a room for quite some time. I remember when I saw "What Lies Beneath" I couldn't go to the bathroom that often for so long. That movie sort of freaked me out and that wasn't even a big hit like The Exorcist was. 02.01.02 - Broken ice Last night was hell but during the day it was a lot of fun. Bryan took me to his high school and then showed me around the 'ghetto mall.' We ate at Jack in the Box and finally dropped Melanie off. I'm liking this place a lot and his friends are really nice. I'm about to go to a party but I don't know if we are still going or not. In case you are wondering, all of my January 2002 entries are in the archive section now. |
