w00t w00t, good news, I did better than I thought I would last semester. Which means, I don't have to redo any classes this term! Unfortunately I also need to change around most of my classes, but hey, it's still all good. Now all I need to do is do well this semester and I'll be nearly back on track.

What's up with my search hits? I finally looked at my sitemeter again, and more than half of my search hits are from ice climbers roms. What the hell?
I apparently also got a JIS-encoded search for "NES ROM MANY." Weirdness.

From Shawn's blog:

1. Besides your computer and printer (and anything else that belongs there), what is on your desk right now?
   

   Well, let's see... NIC with a fried interface, empty box of Triscuits, unused 25' cat5 cable, some non slip rug stuff that came off my modded ddr pad, a plate with a leftover beef taquito, a bowl with some rang dressing, several empty glasses, psx controller, $25, christmas candy and sock, a couple microwaved AOL cds, some issues of MaximumPC, Star Wars Trivial Pursuit, Threads of Fate, Max Payne, Dancemania SPEED 6, SPEED BEST 2001, Dance Dance Revolution 5th Mix OST, Quail Call for this month, Monty Python and the Holy Grail Special Edition DVD slipcase, FAFSA PIN, my watch, a tape with some Family Guy and The Tick, some marshmallows, Salem's Lot (the book), some cans of Dr. Pepper, Microsoft Visual Studio.NET release candidate DVD, bunch of CD cases, The Onion: Stories from the Tenth Circle or something like that, PS2 manual, some burned cds, my TI-86, some pens, some packing tape, a spindle of blank cds, some PC Gamer Demo Discs, a pair of pliers, a tube of Krazy Glue , GTA3 manual, sharpie, pocketstation, nail clippers, a small box of tools, and my LED flashlight.

2. Do you sketch your layouts by hand? Like with paper and everything?

   No. Actually I didn't really even do my layouts; one was basically default pitas one and this one Dini did.

3. What is the VERY last page you updated?
   

   This one.

4. What's the last activity you ditched so you could work on your site?

   A little sleep, if that counts. I don't put too much effort into this actually.

5. Think back to the VERY first website you ever made.

   Er, ok.

6. Where was it hosted?

   JPS.net, who have since been taken over by Onemain (dunno if they're still up, too lazy to check).

7. How many animated GIFs were on it?

   Absolutely none.

8. How many hits did you get before you realized you needed to learn HTML?

   I haven't really. Well, I know a little table, a little frame, and a little other markup. But bleh. And I didn't have a counter for the longest time.

9. Do you talk to your computer?

   Depends on what it's doing and what I want it to do.

10. Does your computer have a name?

    No.

11. Name all the various food crumbs/alien objects that have found their way to the little spaces between your keys.

    Well.... dunno. Lots of stuff.

12. Where are you/what are you doing when you usually receive site/layout inspiration?

    I don't usually. Or if I do I promptly forget.

13. How many times a day do you check your counter?

    I haven't been other than the daily emails.

14. How many times a day do you check your guestbook?

    I have no guestbook.

15. How many sisters/affiliates/whatevers do you have?

    None. I'm lonely.

16. Do you ever talk to them?

    Does this apply?

17. Do your friends at school know you have a website?

    Not really. it doesn't tend to come up.

18. How long after you've met someone for the first time before they find out about your site?

    Depends on where I met them and what we talk about.

19. CDs or MP3s?

    MP3s, so much smaller and I take my computer everywhere anyway ;-)

20. Dialup or cable?

    Cable cable cable cable only cable (or DSL as in my case)

21. Mac or IBM?

    Neither since IBM isn't making PCs anymore :P But I prefer AMD to any alternative.

22. What do your parents think of all the time you spend at your computer?

    My mom wishes I'd get more chores done.

23. Do they know you have a website?

    I think so.

24. Have they seen it?

    No.

25. What's the latest you've ever stayed up trying to get a layout to work?

    I haven't had to deal with that, thankfully.

What Psych-Ward do you belong to?

Click here to take the quiz!

You are passive and unobtrusive most of the time, but when you do wake up to reality you've got quite a bit to say. Even if it's pure nonsense. You may be cute, but that doesn't prevent you from being quite a twerp.

You're Tori Amos!
The Faery Queen

You're the Nightmare Before Christmas!

You are wise beyond your years, in addition to being extremely gentle and kind. You don't talk much--in fact, you can't talk, you communicate telepathically--but not because you're a dullard: quite the opposite. You suffer from a poor memory and a blind (literally) devotion to your beliefs. You may be quite powerful in every respect--physical, spiritual, and mental--but your circumstances keep your potential on a chokehold. You're also the Voice of God.

So, I figure I may as well really blog.

Saturday the game was here - Jeff got a new RPG called Hackmaster which is 2nd ed D&D except with *more* complex rules and *more* munchkin factor. Which already means I don't want to play it, especially since the players are supposed to be munchkins trying to kill everything and the GM is supposed to try and kill as many players as possible. Bleh.

We played Final Fantasy, went through two days of Grongor fest. Dini, your Dragoon got a level up adventuring, and also won the close-quarters fighting contest. Actually you took me apart, kept jumping and I couldn't get a critical. Al and Randy fought, but since Randy is unlucky they both kept beating themselves up and chipping away at each other, until finally Randy suggested they do rock-paper-scissors and whoever lost threw the fight.

I won the footrace against a magically enhanced elf. Wade used some spell covertly on him, and I managed to get by quite quickly. The elf didn't even finish, he couldn't climb over this big rock obstacle.

Randy's been winning the chocobo races. Except for the first one where everyone got all mangled.

So, my mom's gone for the week. I wonder how the place is going to look on Saturday when we get to have the game over here once again.
Watched some anime with the tv-out today, very nice. Can't wait until more mahoro comes out.

Well, saw LOTR today, and it rocks. And I realized I'm a lot like my dad in the middle. Luckily the movie was cool enough that it didn't affect my enjoyment of it. But I really hate being like my dad. He has no job, he's lazy, he's mooching off of my grandma (she's taking care of him almost as much as she was taking care of my grandpa, who'd had a stroke so he couldn't do a lot, when he was alive).

So dammit. I hate being like my dad. It causes you to lose things you love dearly.

I do have to agree somewhat, I don't usually see many people at Golfland. I think they make all their money from DDR now actually, since I don't usually see many people playing the other games (even on weekends). But try to get in a game of DDR on a friday or saturday evening and you'll be waiting for an hour or more.

And Naughty Nick's... well, they're not too bad, the thing that annoys me though is that their friggin ddr machine now has a volume so low it's hard to catch the beat. Oh, and when it was 3rd mix they had autofail off - now it's on and it sucks that way. Bleh. Heh, I actually almost went there today after Japanese (because $1.50 to play double is better than $2.00 at golfland).

Bleh, small lan party tomorrow. We really need more computers (and people to play on them).
