I took my brother wtih me to see usi's show thingie, it was fun stuff.

I saw Jeni and that was very nice, she made me laugh and that's always a plus.

Nate Lucas and Natalie were all very funny in the happy drug play.

Guys who resemble gay frogs crack me up.

I finally got my AFI cd back.

Once again I'm really tired for some unknown reason... it's not like I've been up to much. Weird.

Oh well, sleepy time.

I spent more time in my car driving to class today than I was actually in it. Kinda worthless day... I wouldn't have even gone if I didn't have to turn in my paper.

Scion tC = pretty. It will be mine!

Seriously, my parents want to sell the corolla and my dad gets an uber cool deal because of his company. So it looks like there could be a new car for Max! And hopefully I won't get hit while in class after having it for less than a month again... cuz that wasn't so fun. Oh well I'm happy :)

I should be doing a paper now... but I don't see that happening tonight. Luckily I have a fairly large break in between classes tomorrow and I should be able to get that taken care of.

I'm suprisngly tired for this time of night... so I'm gonna go sleep now. Peace

My father is an asshole.

I'm tired of this take a step forward and then two step back bullshit, every time we start getting along he just does something to ruin it. I'm tired of trying to be nice to him, and I really just want to move out already. It's not even the normal parental bullshit, he's going out of his way to be a dick to me and i'm sick of it.

I watch too much scooby doo.

I don't even really like scooby doo, but it's always on when i'm home during my break.

Yeah...

That was the pointless post of the day.

@ 12:12 AM

My style is like a chemical spill.

Yeah... sorry for the obscure robbie van winkle reference, but i'm bored.

Belated birthday to my doggie Mo. I think we spoiled her last night, she got a steak, I had a sammich... Today she looked at her bowl, then at me, and back to her bowl, someones too good for kibble now.

Anyway, today was uneventful, as are most sundays. Sleepy time now

- max





Sunday, April 25 @ 2:30 AM

Well I have to say tonight was more interesting than I was expecting. I went to a party and was all social and stuff... even drove a drunken lucas home. Now there's a good time! It was kinda fun though have to admit that.

Must sleep now. See ya

Saturday, April 24 @ 5:10 PM

I have a job!

Or at least, will have one when summer starts. Took long enough to find out, but i'm happy now. We even got a raise!

Can't say there's been a lot of depth to my posts lately, I just havent really been up to much. I go to school, I come home, I read, I work out and I sleep. Not a bad existance, not very social either though. Its ok, I would imagine that will change when the summer comes and I can see my friends again.

Anyway, I gotta get moving if i'm gonna turn it in on time.

See ya.

Uncomfortble Moment of the Day

Setting: English professors office, end of the meeting for our poetry papers.

English Professor: Well, it seems like you are ready to go on your paper.

Max: Yup, thanks

EP: Before you go, I was wondering... are you ok?

Me: uh, yeah.

EP: Because, you don't really look ok. Is something wrong? Do you want to talk about it?

Me: No thanks, I appreciate the offer but I'm quite alright. Gee look at the time, I'm gonna be late for poli sci.

EP: Ok, well you know if you ever do want to talk, I'm here.

Me: Thanks...

Yeah, that's my uncomfortable moment of the day/week/month/maybe year?

I know i'm a mess, I didn't need her telling me that though.

I snapped at my brother earlier, I feel kinda bad about that. He didn't really do anything wrong, just wanted to use my computer for an asignment. I just feel lousy and took it out on him... was very uncool of me.

I need a vacation.

- max





@ 11:53 AM

I fell asleep for prettymuch all of poli sci. It happens sometimes, I can't help it. Anyway I was woken up right as class was getting out by the professor, the class thought it was pretty funny. What was even better was the fact that both of my arms/hands fell alseep. I had quite the fun time trying to pick up my notebook and things. I was laughed at just a little bit... It was funny though so I didn't feel bad or anything.

Monday, April 19 @ 3:17 PM

McDonalds CEO dies of heart attack, never saw that one coming...

The old woman who sits next to me in history is freaking me out.

Yesterday I found out that I can still rock. I mean, I play my acoustic every day and that's good and all, but I had not touched an electric in over a year. I think I'm going to start getting into it again though, I really forgot how much fun it is, and with all the equipment I have it would be a shame not to... I kinda want to start a band. The only trouble is that everyone who is good is either already in a band, or doesn't play the same stuff as me. No fun

This my puny attempt to recruit.

Are you in the Evansville area?

Can you sing, play the drums or bass?

Are you into bands like AFI, Bad Religion, Dropkick Murphies, and the cure? Must throw in a little nofx too for silly good fun.

Do you want to start a band?

If so contact me and we shall rock.

I'm watching a movie where Steve Gutenberg just threw down with Robert Downy jr... crazy I didn't know the Gutenberg was capable of such things.

Must be mozying along now, papers to do...

See ya

pb&j with my grandmothers home made starwberry jelly could possibly be the best thing on the planet.

We're watching our neighbors dog, that means 10 minutes ago I was asleep and a big crazy german shepard jumped on me. Jerkface dog.


I think my parents are trying to set me up with someone. The girl looks great and seems nice and all... but it's my parents. Weird.

I'm gonna go take a shower and watch Kill Bill. Yay for my dad and his random dvd purchasing.

Peace

Saturday, April 17 @ 2:31 PM

I had a really weird dream last night. Kinda funny, but really weird. I'm not going to put it on here for a couple reasons, but if you know me and you're interested in a funny tale feel free to ask.

- max





Friday, April 16 @ 10:21 AM

I didn't sleep at all last night. Well, unless you count the 5 minutes when I was starting to, but thats when my mom told me it was time to get up and get ready for class. Yeah, it was one of those nights... Part of it was because I fell asleep around 6 and woke up at 9, but that's only 3 hours. I can usually get a couple hours in at night when I do that. I also had a lot on my mind, I was thinking about writing on here, but I didn't know how to get it out without sounding like a fool. Actually, that's not true, I don't really care about sounding like a fool, most people who read this probably think so anyway. The problem is I just don't know where to begin, I think my head is going to explode. At least school is almost done, I could really use a vacation.

I burned my thumb today.

I'm gonna try to sleep for an hour or two, must be well rested for my history exam.

Later.

@ 12:03 AM

I spent today at barnes reading The Eyes of the Dragon again. It was probably my favorite book as a child, and it's still pretty high up there now. It was really fun reading it again now that I've read the Dark Tower series... at least what's been written so far. It's really cool to see how the stories tie in together.

Good coffee + a comfy chair + a good book = good day for max.

Was a good day anyway, i'm a tad irked now.

@ 12:22 AM

I have more papers due tomorow, but I rocked them out like a ninja should... that is, because ninjas should rock.

Pressure is starting to build.

School is almost done.

Reverse those last two sentences... I could just go ahead and change them myself, but instead I find myself typing this. Strange

I will be free... for a week or two, and then I start my job.

It occured to me that if I had in fact reveresed those two lines the previous post would make little sense. Although it doesn't really make as much sense with the line I put in about the whole non switch. Again, strange...

Still, no more papers for a good long time.

And money!

Again, assuming I do have a job with my dad. Ya know, it would be really great if I could find out soon. If I don't get the job I do have to find some other means of employment... and I can kiss Europe goodbye.

I do have more work to do.

So, I guess I'll go do that.

Goodbye.

@ 1:48 AM

Reasons why today was great.

1. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind with Julie.

2. Lobster dinner with my family

3. Talk of Max going to Europe next summer.

4. Denny's run with Jarboe

5. movie with Jarboe and Jenni

Yeah, that's what I call a good day. I love my friends, I was very happy to see people like Julie, Jarboe, and Jenni. They are extrememly good kids and I'm glad everything is going well with them. There are some others that I would have liked to see but I know the weekend is short and packed with family activities, it's alright though, summer will come soon :)

Mattbob will be updating his blog!

Rock!

Friday, April 9 @ 1:17 PM

I just woke up.

I can't remember the last time I slept this late.

I'd like to say that it as good, but since my back is still killing me it wasn't. I should probably go get it looked at.

It's nice out, and for the first time in a while I'm not swamped with work, I'm gonna go get cleaned up and enjoy the weather. See ya :)

done!

I know, whoda thunk it?

I'm proud! I patted myself on the back and everything.

Now I shall claim my reward of sleep. I may very well sleep though all of my classes tomorrow and just drop the papers off before 5. Depends on how Max's shoulder is feeling.

There I go with those crazy third person references.

Shucks, oh well.

Sleep :)

Wednesday, April 7 @ 11:26 PM

I procrastinate too much.

Things have worked out in the past but I believe that my luck has run out.
I can handle one paper the night before it is due, in fact, that's how i've done every paper this semester and the lowest grade I've recieved is a B+.

So, we've established that 1 paper the night before it's due isn't too bad, how about 3? That is a teeny bit more challanging I think, it's not that I can't write them, I just can't focus.

If I get started right about now, which is my usual time for doing these things, I should finish the first by 1 or so. How much longer will two more papers take? I guess it's not really fair to call them two papers, because it's more or less the same paper. I just have to add my personal feelings to one of them for another class. Still, a seperate paper and then some revisions is going to take some time, I don't think I'll get to bed before 3 or so, which means there's no way in hell i'm going to my 7:30 english. The noon version is fun I guess, and there is the girl that confused me, yeah a girl confusing me... that's never happend before. Anyway, I guess I can get this all done, but in order to do that I have to start, which means I have to get off of this thing.

So bye for now, until I lose focus again... which will probably be in an hour or so.

Wee!

@ 7:47 PM

1984

My brothers cellphone rings

Gus: Hello?

?: Bet you don't know who this is

Gus: Uh, nope, who is it?

?: Oh, I'm the recruiter you talked to earlier, I tried calling you earlier but the phone was busy so I looked up your cell. We're not really supposed to do that, but we are the government haha.

Gus: Uh... ok.

Recruiter: So you guys are off on Friday, would you like to get together and talk about the marines?

Gus: Uh no thanks, I have to do some homework... bye.

Recruiter: Ok, I'll talk to you later!

*END*

Creepy. I laughed a him, but still... creepy.

Damn the man!

@ 6:16 PM

mmm nc style barbque

back = still in pain, but not quite as bad as when I woke up

found out that I can acess the info for my paper though this thingie and there was no need to go to the library

now to do 3ish papers in one night, more like 2 but I have to add my feelings to one of them for another class

so I guess I should go do that now

- max





@ 9:31 AM

I feel like someone took a knife and jammed it into my right shoulder and proceded to carve. I don't think I can do anything today, which isn't good because there is a lot that I have to get done. I think I'm going to go back to sleep now and hopefully feel good enough to go to the library in a few hours, I have to get some sources for my paper that is due tomorrow.

Tuesday, April 6 @ 10:09 PM

Oh yeah, I have to figure out what classes I want for next semester and then meet with my advisor and see if I'm even allowed to register with the whole being on probation thing.

@ 10:08 PM

You are freaking out, man.

I have to keep reminding myself that there are only a few more weeks left, and if I get though them everything is going to be alright.

I have to go to the library tomorrow and get some info for my English essay revision.
I have to write that revision by Thursday.
I have to write an extra credit paper for English that is still making me sick.
I have to write a paper about the death of some guy who wrote some books on political science.
I have to write a variation of the extra credit paper for English for my poli sci, what's more fun is he wants the emotional aspect and my opinion on the entire situation, making me even more sick.
I have to study for a history exam.
I have to study for an econ exam.


Still, only a few weeks to go and I'm done. I'll just keep telling myself that and hope my brain doesn't short out.

Go me

@ 12:34 PM

WARNING The following is a big selfish rant. If you do not like reading big selfish rants I would suggest that you turn away now. Normally I do not really do this on here but there is just something that I would like to get out of my system. If you want to read it and know why I'm a tad irked feel free, but don't say I didn't warn you.

Last night I was told that some people viewed me as an asshole. When I asked who these people were my informer said that he did not remember. There are two things I don't like about that answer, the first being that because I don't know who it is that thinks this, I don't know how I acted around them. I mean, I act more or less the same to everyone, but if I knew who it was then I could be like, "oh yeah, I remember when I was kinda mean to them," or, "What the hell is their problem?" The second issue I have with that answer is that if whoever it is has a problem with me why don't they talk to me about it? I mean that's how its done isn't it? Or at least how it should be, if you have a problem with someone talk it out, that is the only way it can be resolved. Well, unless you're a firm believer in the swift kick to the shin solves everything concept. In any case that still requires some sort of interaction with the person you have an issue with.

I told someone not too long ago that there were only about 4 or 5 peoples opinions that actually matter to me, I didn't mean that as a knock to the person, it's just the truth. I have a lot of trouble opening up to people, it's taken me 4 years to really start to open up with my friends but I finally have, they are some amazing people and I really do care about them and what they think of me. I wouldn't think that it would be one of these people. I would be hurt if it was, not because they think such things of me, but because they couldn't talk to me about it. It would be disrespectful to the friendship we've made. The more likely scenario is that it is a friend of a friend or something of the sort, I don't talk to those people so much, not because I don't like them or I feel that I'm too good for them, but just because I don't talk much. I'm not very good with words and most times I don't say anything to anyone. It's not me being mean, and I would hope that they know that.

My friend told me that this could be a chance to think about how I've treated people and try to figure out what they view as assholish as he put, and find a way to fix that. Well, I've thought about it and I have to say that's pretty stupid. It's not my job to please everyone, I spent way too much time already trying that and I only got hurt. It is my job to try to be ok with who I am, and for the first time I'm starting to get there. I don't purposely try to harm anyone, and if anyone has been offended by me I'm sorry, but I'm not going to change for someone who I don't know and doesn't have the courage to talk to me about what bothers them.

So yeah, that was my rant. I feel a little better now, I guess that's the whole point of this thing.

Peace.

Friday, April 2 @ 12:22 PM

Withson, I was thinking... earlier you asked if it was alright to ask me a question, which in itself is a question right? So why didn't you just ask the intended question instead of wasting space on my tagboard you dirty bastardo. Erm, I'm kidding. I was just kinda amused by the fact that you asked if it was alright to ask a question. Here's a question from me though, do I know you? I mean, you seem to know me?
