  <description>Can someone be so stupid that they don&apos;t think twice?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m changing my style of journal now. I&apos;ll try to start each post with a question or phrase to get attention. So my question is stated above...can someone be so stupid that they don&apos;t think twice when it would be SO easy to do so? I&apos;m sure we can all agree that the answer is yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m asking, well more venting than asking...I&apos;m venting to you this problem I have with people who make stupid choices for simple things. I have done it before so I am not saying I hate people for it, I just hate the fact that we ALL do this! Right now though, I am talking about my dad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a few days ago we had a tiff over his computer desk...no not the computer, not the printer, not the network connection, we had an argument over HIS DESK! Now, to me, it was a pointless argument and I didn&apos;t feel like it was an argument until I got mad at the very end... to him, I don&apos;t know how he felt. Anyway, the argument started when I set my wallet and keys on his desk and started to use his computer to work on my assignments for school. Now before I go on you have to understand some things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I use my dad&apos;s computer as often as I can because mine has become to slow, so run down, and just plain bad, that it is beginning to become an artifact. I use it basicly for AIM and e-mail now because all it&apos;s components are to obsolete to work anything that is made now. Also, my dad runs Windows XP, so at the time all my family (excluding my mom since she has her own computer) had seperate names for our seperate profiles, mine being one of them. So I use the computer for my school and pretty much anything I need or want that requires more power than my piece of junk for a computer can handle. Don&apos;t get me wrong though, I am thankful to have on in my room that works for the basics....but it&apos;s just in today&apos;s time my computer is so bad it&apos;s should be illegal to use it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So now that you understand that I can go on. Well my keys that I had set on the desk fell off and mad a loud noise while doing so. It brought my dad into the room and he told me to keep my stuff of the desk like I had a huge load or soemthing. Now I can understand him saying that if I had like three school notebooks open all over his papers and stuff, but al lI had was my wallet and my set of keys sitting on the desk itself, not on anything ON the desk, actually on the desk in a quiet little spot. I still don&apos;t understand his deal with that but that&apos;s where the argument started.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing yo uhave to understand is my dad&apos;s desk is messy. Not like unorganized messy because he has papers with papers and cds with cds but it&apos;s still messy mostly because he has enough room TO clean it up. Anyway, I get a little frustrated because at the time I had less than 12 hours to finish the last half of my detailed outline (for those of you who know how to do outlines it was supposed to go all the way down to little roman numerals and I had three big points.) My dad can be really harsh at times, and one of his deals is any change in the way your voice sounds is bad to him pretty much, so when I told him &quot;Can I work now!?&quot; He of course got on my tail about the way I said it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many times has your mom or dad said &quot;I know where the power button is?&quot; or something like it? Heh, well I&apos;ll tell you something about me...one of my pet peeves is I REALLY dislike cliches like that, ESPECIALLY parent ones. Things like &quot;Don&apos;t make me come over there&quot; and &quot;Do I make myself clear?&quot; The fact that I am getting lectured I can take, I understand they don&apos;t like what I jsut said or did, but what gets me frustrated is those phrases parents use over and over and it just gets tiring. I mean, they must have some sort of secret organizational HQ because the whole parental cliche thing is pure gold when it comes to disciplining a kid. Think about it, you&apos;re sitting there at church or anywhere near kids and you hear a mom use one of those cliches. I find myself remembering the last time MY mom said it and then feeling bad for what it was related to!! Parents must have a sort of &quot;Parenting International Inc.&quot; or something because it&apos;s amazing how many parents use those cliches!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heheh, well I am digressing, sorry. He told me the cliche &quot;I know where the power button is&quot; then explained how I was not to speak to him like that and then...another cliche which I am sure we all have heard this one more times than we can count...&quot;Do I make myself clear?&quot; Now with my dad&apos;s finger on the power button and the 20 minutes of my life that have just been wasted and the fact that he used TWO cliches in ONE sentence....well I lost it. I stood up and knocked the chair over (accidentely) and just looked at him and I really was mad now. Before I was just peeved that he had been taking this needed time away from my schoolwork but now I was mad that he was threatening me over an argument about my two little items on his coveted little desk!! So I told him that using his computer wasn&apos;t worth the argument we were having and that he could have it if he wanted it SO much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that sounds really calm but belive me it wasn&apos;t....I yelled it at him. I admit I have a temper, but with most people it&apos;s a temper that is really settled, but when it breaks out it&apos;s bad. Different with my dad thought, for some reason almost everything he says breaks that barrier with me and he gets under my skin! Anyway, after I yelled I stormed out of the room, only to turn around midwalk and yell again. I told him that if he would get me a better computer than I wouldn&apos;t need to use his at all but he&apos;s to busy forking out cash to add stuff to his electronics that he doesn&apos;t pay attention to what I am in need of.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And h seriously doesn&apos;t either! I was using his computer before, about a week ago, and he decided he&apos;d just use mine while I was on his. After I finish he informs me that he couldn&apos;t use my computer because my CD-Rom drive was unusable. Now my drive is usable, it&apos;s just really bad. the case for my computer has messed the cd drive up and I have to fiddle with it to get it to open. I also, had TOLD him this about THREE times over the past three or four weeks before he used my drive and those were just the times he heard me tell him. He assured me that my drive was fine and that if it was messed up it was my fault....well case in point he used my drive and now he SEES why I was griping to him, because it WAS true (gasp as everyone realizes a teenager was actually right about something!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well now to conclude with why I stated the question. Today, my mom is gone on a small retreat with my sisters and I have been left to babysit my three brothers while dad is at work. I have a rought draft for a research paper in my writing class due by Saturday through e-mail. So today I went to use my dad&apos;s computer, and sure enough my profile isn&apos;t there anymore. Now it didn&apos;t accure to me right then what exactly that meant. It came across my mind while on the way back to my computer....&lt;br /&gt;MY DAD HAD JUST DELETED VERY VERY IMPORTANT FILES THAT I NEEDED FOR SCHOOL!!!!&lt;br /&gt;So important that I now am going to have to probably miss my deadline REWRITING them before I can do my rough draft!!&lt;br /&gt;He also deleted a handful of carefully made pictures I had saved there that I had scanned and colored. I do them on his computer because my monitor is to dark and the colors come out wrong. &lt;br /&gt;My question was &quot;Can someone be so stupid that they don&apos;t think twice?&quot; Now I am not implying my dad is completely stupid, I am reffering the word stupid as not thought through. IF my dad had thought it over he would have realized that I MIGHT have something under my name that needs to be saved since he KNEW I had been using his computer for my schoolwork over the past month or two. He ALSO knew I preffered to do the coloring of all my scans on his computer. Yet, without thinking it through (doing something stupid) he just deleted my name because he was angry with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could understand if he had gone and disconnected my internet connection from the network or took my computer away....but to do something as irreversable as deleted a whole account on Windows XP was stupid, in my opinion. If he would have just come to me and talked things out like he USUALLY does it would have been okay, but he didn&apos;t this time and he&apos;s going to see how I feel when he gets home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I try my hardest to follow the teachings of the Word of God....and I actually thank my Lord that He didn&apos;t let me see it till now, Friday morning. If I had noticed it in the same night I would definitly had done something I would have regretted. Instead I see it now, when he isn&apos;t around and the next opportunity I will have to talk to him will be over the phone when he calls to check in on my babysitting. This is a consequence of my actions I know, and I am not saying there is no fault in me. I just think that we need to be a little more thoughtful when we are angry. &quot;Be ye angry and sin not&quot; (Eph. 4:26) God tells us there that it is alright to be angry, it&apos;s a human emotion h gave us to use. The catch to it is that when we are angry, we shouldn&apos;t do something unpleasing to the Lord. God knows about my temper and He knew I would have probably tried to hurt my dad if I had seen it the same night as our argument. As much as I dislike him and the way he does things, I know I have to obey him, because God has set that commandment before all of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.::Trek::.</description>

  <description>Well, I just got home from a weekend trip to my Aunt&apos;s house in Houston. She needed some help in her yard and paid me to hlep her. It was fun, I hated the weeding though. Geez! You pull on it and it won&apos;t come up so you yank and yank and then you only get a piece of it!! We mulched and I mowed and I got on the scariest ladder ever and pulled the pine needles off her roof, which she hadn&apos;t done in the three years she had been there...so you can expect it to have been pretty gross. Other than yardwork I watched movies at her house....a lot of movies. One I would never think of watching or never even heard of. A few, like &quot;Small Soldiers&quot; and &quot;The Time Machine&quot; I had seen before, but it was mostly wierd movies I enjoyed anyway. She also introduced me to some of the crime shows like Law &amp; Order: Criminal Intent and CSI: Miami, which even though I thought they would be retarded and not for a guy like me who likes to play video games and draw...I found them a good watch. I am a little jealous of the Houston paper readers who read the funnies...they get Spiderman, where is MY Spiderman here in Austin!? I get stuck with Sunday ones I&apos;ve had since I started reading like Garfield and Blondie and Family Circus, but where is my Spiderman!!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*Sigh* Oh well, Que sera sera *winks to Kdraw, 14Dale, and Elizabeth cuz of the inside joke.* I came home and found out that I was some how roped into being in our church choir&apos;s next performance. This time though I am doing this wierd thing called &quot;singing in a choir.&quot; Hmm what&apos;s that all about? Seriously though, on my way home my mom is like &quot;Oh and Ana came by and gave me the CD that Mrs. Moore wants you to practice for the performance.&quot; and I am like what!? I guess I&apos;m in the choir for this thing....I wonder what other Youths are in it (probably only me and Gabi.) I wonder if they&apos;d understand my mashed potato/french fry analogy *winks at Steve for inside joke and yes I love Generation O for anyone who caught that.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I have to go and cram for my Science Fair project and do my Chemistry so I can have some time to draw or whatever. ttyl!</description>

  <title>I&apos;m so sick!</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/4737.html</link>
  <description>As my subject states I&apos;m sick; but not sick as in cough cough, sick as in, so tired of....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m sick of taking care of my sick family! All of them except me and my sister Laura (That would mean my mom and all my other siblings which is like 6.) Laura, who is 12, is at that point where she like to think the whole world revolves around her. She&apos;s been at this stage for like, the past 5 years really and it&apos;s starting t oget to me!! Anyway, this leaves yours truly with the sole purpose of cleaning messes and house, watching David and Rebekah (two littlest), and of course fetching Ginger Ale and Jell-O every 5 minutes. I don&apos;t mind doing this, what is annoying is they&apos;re taking advantage of me! Also, Laura happens to be the one helping which can make things worse. I still don&apos;t understand why she thinks we&apos;re all here to please her, because we&apos;ve told it to her face about a bazillion times now!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh well, that was my rant...yea I am stuck here babysitting and I am going to miss LoTR tonight, we were gonna go see it but now we can&apos;t. Tommorow I sing at our church for our big Christmas Eve service and I don&apos;t know if I will even be going -.-! Life goies on though and one day I&apos;ll be gone from the house and on my own and all I&apos;ll deal with our my own problems....until mom and dad get really old and I have to help them again.</description>

  <description>We&apos;ve (My church) have been practicing a play we&apos;re soing Wednsday night, Christmas Eve. Every department has a part in it. There is the ROCK, our Children&apos;s Church, then Ransomde Youth, which is me and my peers, and the Choir. It turns out I am Joseph and my cousin is Mary....and I have to STAND on a platform over our baptismal (A pool behind the stage that our pastor uses to baptise people in the Holy Spirit for those who are not into the religious lingo :-p) which is not good. Those of you who may have seen how old our baptismal is, yea...those who haven&apos;t should be thankful. The practice was so long but we needed it, we&apos;ll be ready :-p.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After our parts were done the youth sorta wandered around and let the Choir do their thang and me and my friend Cody ended up playing a game of &quot;tag&quot;. It was so fun! Cody&apos;s cousin Bradley (he&apos;s like 10) helped me out while Cody&apos;s sister helped Cody. My friend Brittany helped me out too which was good. We both got weapons (blunt sticks lol) and I smacked him with mine which started the game, I would run and hide and run and hide till he found me and hit me, then I&apos;d go after him all stealthy like and whop him again (yes I said whop...as in whopwopwop.) All the time making sure no one would rat me out. The best stuff happened when I would be outside and walk past a glass door and see Cody or Sarah (his sis) walking past on the inside, and they would look the other way and not see me as I ran past ^__^! That happen twice. I also got help from my Youth pastor, she let me hide in the closet of her office for a minute. Cody knocked on the door and she directed him away it was so funny!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I may be 18 but I love being a kid and I don&apos;t think I&apos;ll ever grow up, I&apos;ll be playing tag with the ROCK kids for as long as I live! I figure if I am 18 and act like a 14 year old then when I am 30 won&apos;t I be acting like a 26 year old!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Those who live their lives young will be young forever.&quot; ~Me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But now that it&apos;s all over I&apos;m as tired as anything! I am so ready to sleep, but it&apos;s only 8:30pm which is to early for me to go to bed. I&apos;ll at least wait till 10pm to go to bed. Okay well I guess that&apos;s all. Untill next time...</description>

  <title>I be a wrapper yo!</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/4182.html</link>
  <description>This weekend is going to be SO frustrating. I yesterday I wrapped gifts at Barnes and Nobles for our Youth Group. I am doing it tonight as well, it&apos;s fun but tiring and some of the people are down right rude. Satruday has two parties and I give out stockings to the kids at Sidewalk Sunday School too. I ride in with my cousin and do the stockings, it ends at 1pm at the latest. I have three hours till the first party and iono WHAT I am gonna do during that time -.-. I have to leave early from the first party to make it to the second party and I need an actual car ride to do that, the bus would take to long. Oh well, I&apos;ll find a way!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday is going to be big because there is church then practice for our christmas thing we&apos;re doing. I have a part to sing.....oh joy *sarcasm*. I really don&apos;t like singing in front of people because when I do something I like to do it well, and I don&apos;t think I sing well enough. My youth pastor does so she put me in, oh well life goes on right :-p.</description>

  <description>Whoops, looks like I forgot I had this thing. Um, well, lots of things have happened since. I had my 18th birthday, I bought a GBA-SP with my money FROM the birthday. I got my driving permit! I saw Kdraw and Dale14 again ^^;!!!! I started going to this kool homeschool co-op and it&apos;s awesome² cuz it turns out both of my homeschool friends Channing and Alex go there so I see them now when before it was like....never.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&apos;t know where to begin, I&apos;ll start with my BIRTHDAY! I set it up at our church and there was food and games and stuff! I brought my Gamecube and we had a competition and lots of people joined and the winner got a 5 dollar card to Blockbuster! My friend Micheal won, on a fluke I think. It was supposed to be a surprise party but I kept pushing and so my mom just told me about it and I was like *smacks head* so stupid, cuz I&apos;ve wanted a surprise party a lot and never got one, and so yea...but it was good! They surprised me with a cake that had my baby picture on it and a huge mural of pictures from my life, it was so embarassing. I got nice gifts and my friends were there, it was just missing cupcakes (Sorry Cchan and Aly.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then came the concert! FESTIVAL CON DIOS! Lots of bands, lots of jumping, lots of hydration. It was so fun because Alex and Channing got to go! (btw, if you haven&apos;t noticed Channing and Alex are like my best homeschool friends and I don&apos;t see them much so when I do it&apos;s like w00t²) We jammed to FM Static and Newsboys and other ones too heheh!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then came the spectacular HEART ALA CARTE. Okay not spectacular, more like...a mix between wweee and AUGH! pros: Get to see my friends and the school structure is how I like it. cons: Mrs. Kokajko is WAY strict on rules and I have to get up at 5am to get there cuz my dad has to be at work early....yea big con.&quot; It&apos;s kool tho, I take three classes: Chemistry, Writing, and SAT Prep. In between SAT prep and Writing is a big 3 hour break for me and I get to visit with people. (Geez I could go to a movie in that time if I had a car lol!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fall of this year consisted of me going to the THSC Leadership Retreat! I got to see Kendra and Justin again, and Dale came down from Virginia for it ^^!!! During the retreat we had lots of fun. Justin has this way of getting what he wants tho, cuz he some how convinced me to let him play my GBA like the whole time -.-; (So sorry Kdraw.) We did our whole stay up all night but instead go to sleep cuz it got boring routine we have every year. It was fun while it lasted, and I made a new friend in Sky....which I am still figuring out wiether that&apos;s a good thing or a bad thing (jklol Sky!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got my permit too, not much to say there other than I CAN DRIVE NOW!&lt;br /&gt;Also, I had the most (insert a word I can&apos;t think of) day I have ever had! It was not the best....and yet not the worst.....but it was awesome! If you wanna know how it went ask me and I&apos;ll e-mail the huge letter my mom wrote about it to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOW for the present.&lt;br /&gt;I am going to a banquet tonight for our church. Our choir director is high-up at a hotel downtown, it&apos;s a real popular one too. This is our second annual church banquet, I have attended both ^__^. It&apos;s great to see everyone REALLY dressed up....if you think Sunday church is dressy then don&apos;t try to attend this hehehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have so much school to do so I better go now, peace be with you all and I hope to see you soon (The people I know that is :-p.)</description>

  <title>SMASH!!!</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/3768.html</link>
  <description>I rented Super Smash Brothers Melee for my...less than shiny Gamecube (see last update.) The first time I rented it I hated it cuz the controls were to hard. But this timeI love it cuz I am used to the controller now. I have unlocked all the characters so far except Pichu, Ganondorf, and Mr. Game &amp; Watch. My favorite character to play is Roy from Fire Emblem (A japanese-only RPG released for the Famicon ((Japanese name for the NES.))) I can kick butt with him!! He&apos;s got this sweet attack where you hold down the B button and if you hold it long enough he sends his sword down with a blast of fire and anyone in the way will get knocked off the screen it&apos;s friggin SWEET! Of course I play with my little bros and sisters so I dunno if I&apos;d kick butt with peers. I&apos;m still pretty good tho. Hehe the funniest stuff happens with Camera mode tho. You can have up to three characters controlled but the fourth controller is the camera. I had fun doing some Link and Zelda stuff. Maybe I&apos;ll get some pictures of it later on.</description>

  <description>I went to my friend Cody&apos;s house last Wed. night after church service with my friend JC (He&apos;s Cody&apos;s too.) Well I took my Gamecube and all that along. Um...well other than the fact that I FORGOT the power and RF modulator something worse happened. I set it all in a box and well, I set the box under Cody&apos;s mom&apos;s CAR....we forogt and she ran over the box!!! I dunno why but me and my two friends were LAUGHING to whole time. I guess because everything survived. Well one thing didn&apos;t, my little sisters memory card for animal crossing. the front looks fine, but the back....OUCH. The Gamecube actually slipt the box open and SKIDDED across the parking lot -__-;. All it has is a big skuffon the bottom tho, it still works. The controllers are ok too hehehe. I am so thankful that $200 pieceof equipment and more for the games and controllers and memory cards is ok.</description>

  <title>Entering the Matrix</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/3199.html</link>
  <description>I recently rented &quot;Enter the Matrix&quot; for my Gamecube and MAN is it awesome. I certainly DON&apos;T see where people are assuming it is bad. I mean the graphics on everything look ok to me, but I am not one to rely on them so I dunno. The gameplay is solid, other than the Bullet Time effect which I think is SO fun it&apos;s nothing GROUNDBREAKING but I don&apos;t think a game like this SHOULD be. There ARE a lot of Glitches in it, like one I ran across was when I was running down these stairs in a scene with my gun and it suddenly started to float above me as I was walking down....when I walked down more it went higher and when I went back it went lower. I fired and the gun went CRAZY! It was so funny. It&apos;s litle things like that that make it look bad but it doesn&apos;t take away at ALL from the experience. Hehe, I have played it with Ghost and when there is a car scen Niobe drives and I shoot....Niobe drives ok for the most part being AI, but there have been a few times where she flies into a corner for no reason, BUT she DOES back up and get back on the road which is kool. Honestly I love the game and I can&apos;t wait to rent it again and finish it as Ghost then play as Niobe which is supposed to be totally different. The voices and character modeling are great (the characters do SHAKE tho....which is kinda wierd) and you can tell that the models aren&apos;t the best becuse their hands stick out as not to touch their body and &quot;go thru&quot; hehe. But while I was playing this the game that came to mind to compare i to was X2: Wolverine&apos;s Revenge. EtM compared to WR is SOOOOO much better. Mainly becuase IT SAVES EVERY FEW MINUTES! While with WR you die you start that WHOLE level over. So if I were to judge EtM on a scale of One to Ten, I would give it an 8</description>

  <title>Mustangs, Trinoculars, and Superheroes.</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/3019.html</link>
  <description>I spent most of the day today drawing Mustangs. Why? Becuase my cousin needed some pictures for some project she is doing....and of all the things she wanted me to draw it was a CAR! I may be a guy but I am not all that interested in cars, I mean I know which ones are kool and what one are which most of the time. Like Ferraris and Vipers and Hummers. But I started drawing with some guideline pictures and I am actually impressed with them pretty much, even tho I only have three and the other dozen were WAY to crappy to keep and I threw away. I feel very proud tho that the first two I did were really awesome, just confirms the fact that drawing is my God-given ability. I had never really drawn cars and my perspective is really bad on most things but these came out very nice and I am impressed....I just hope my super picky cousin will be as well hehehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recently my &quot;Trinocular Vision&quot; as I dislike to call it has started to flare up again. It is just not kool, I hate it with a passion. It&apos;s just not NORMAL! But then again, neither is my life hehe. To hlep you understand I made the name becuase what happens is, usually at night when I suddenly wake up, my eyes go all crazy and I see things like I am looking thru the reverse end and right end of binoculars along with just normal site but at the same time. I know it sounds wierd and it FEELS even wierder. Also, since I am usually SUDDENLY waking up I go into a panic attack which is never fun. *sigh* also no one BUT me has it that I know and my eye doctor and regular doctor have no idea....they just think it is cuz I am working my eyes to much then I go to bed. But my friend JC spends SO much more time on his computer and stuff than I do and he has no problem. Still, I needed reading glasses and he doesn&apos;t yet so maybe that&apos;s why. Altho it WOULD be kinda kool if I was the first and it was named after me hehehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am planning on buying a new game called &quot;City of Heroes&quot; when it comes out soon. It was on display at E3 this year (Electronic Entertainment Expo...biggest gaming thing of the year.) I didn&apos;t go hehe but I saw it on my Gaming channel G4....love that channel so awesome. Anyway the game is a MMOG (Massive Multiplayer Online Game) and you play Superheroes that protect a city called Paragon city. The powers and costumes are MASSIVE and you can combine and color almost every aspect of your character to fit them to your dream superhero/ine. There is even a sidekick ability for those who are weaker in their powers and need to level up fast. It&apos;s going to be awesome and I MUST have....even if my computer is to slow to play I will just use Dad&apos;s hehehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MMmmmmm, Fahitas tonight....did I spell it right, I dunno Oo;.</description>

  <description>I don&apos;t know about your family but mine is like a day care gone horribly...horrible wrong. I am the oldest of 7 other siblings, will be 8 in August -__-;. What&apos;s worse is like, the next one after me is a girl and she is like 7 years apart from me So I am like the odd one out because I have the video games and the computer but they have each other and blablabla yea. ANYWAY, they seem to be screaming a lot lately....like UNECESSARILY a lot. Usually, since I am homeschooled, my mom walks in around 8am (lucky me I know) and tells me to wake up, but for the past three days I have awoken to the sound(s) of one or more of them screaming or &quot;Singing&quot; or something really annoying. Oh well, one day I will move out and get a house or apartment and I will go &quot;Woah, so THIS is what that quiet people tell me about is....kool.&quot; Hehehe.</description>

  <description>*Sigh* I missed church today because my step-father does guard drill for the army some weekends. He takes the car and we can&apos;t go. I usually go with my cousins tho but this time my mom was tired and wanted me to stay home....oh well. Right now I am putting together a bunch of random songs to put on a CD. Punk mostly but then there are others. I added Shonen Knife in there hehehe (Japanese Rock band in America that is a 5 girl punk band.) Girl band memebers are kool no matter what anyone says!! I want a girl band memeber if I ever start a punk band. Hmm, maybe my cousin will play Drums that&apos;d be awesome! haha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you probably can tell my favorite music genre is Punk. wiether it be Pop-Punk or Punk-Rock or whatever I usually like it. I like the organized sounding stuff tho, the songs that go with the beat and singers on the beat ya know? I heard this new group Squad 5-0 a few weeks ago and like them a lot but I can&apos;t find theur CD anywhere!!! Eh oh well. Oh yay I found out last weekend that I have a webcam, yes I have had it longer than that and never noticed...leave me alone hehe. No see, I got a digital camera for Christmas and I d/l Yahoo!IM becuase one of my friends is on it and can&apos;t get on AIM or MSN so I did it for her (how sweet of me haha) and I clicked the little webcam button and BAM it shows thru my camera. I was so excited....but then I realized, WHY? Well I guess if anyone is afraid I might be a 30 year old stalker than it would come in handy but even then I only have freinds I know in real life on my list hehehe.</description>

  <title>Why I got this.....BECAUSE I CAN!!!</title>
  <link>http://keviin.livejournal.com/2241.html</link>
  <description>Hmmm, well....an online journal that people can look at and read how interesting! Well for me not you cuz I have a feeling no one will want to read this *sniff sniff* except my friend who got me into it hehehe *hugs kdraw*. Anyway, I guess today I&apos;ll just mention how sad I am about something. I took a test on Tuesday that was for the Community College I was going to take classes at. Which was kool cuz normally I could never afford it but as I am going to be a senior I am allowed 2 free classes. Unfortunatly I, being homeschooled, justk inda let my Math get behind (I am a senior next year and still in Algebra 1) so yea. I had to take a test to see if I needed to take their Remedial Math class....which I do because I scored a 30 something on that part :( not kool. I was expecting that tho but what I didn&apos;t expect was that I ALSO failed the Reading part by like 5 points!! I am usually really good at that stuff so I feel really dumb. I am waiting a few days (should be today actually) for the essay part of the test to come in, not that I need that because the classes I want to take just need that math thing so now I have to PAY for the remedial math class in order to take those other ones. *sigh* Oh well, some things in life are just cause and effect I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;In other news...&quot; haha. No seriosuly, we had our Graduation party for the grads of highschool at our church last Sunday? I don&apos;t remember. But I kept looking at how it all was cuz like...I will be in that party next time *feels special*. Then later on like the coming Saturday we had a party just for one of the guys graduating. We didn&apos;t talk to him much tho cuz all the tables were taken so most of us youth type people went up to the Youth Room and talked and ate. It was a lot cooler than it sounds tho cuz we got into the attic!! Man it was awesome, we looked thru all kinds of things!! Old Children&apos;s Church stuff...paintings...and I found a box of tapes from sermons by our old pastor from before I was BORN! We also, after a little menouvering found the air vent that blew the cold are into the church and yea....our church is OOLLLD, that pipe is like just set there it isn&apos;t hooked anymore haha. We&apos;re gonna have to go back sometime, I need pictures of it in there....and a flashlight...ouch, and a smaller body that roof is LOOOW. Well that&apos;s all till I think of something more. .::Danny::.</description>
