Okay, so I haven't been on in a while. How do I get to the chat?

I wasn't able to sleep. Every hour I kept getting a call from some random number. I always picked up but they would hang up the second I said anything... Man I wonder whose been calling me...

I need to get more sleep every night, especially since I'm on the road practically everyday.

Oh, I also have a contemporary drawing of one of my situations in a golf game I had today.

Even though I do absolutely NOTHING past midnight, I always find myself sleeping at 12:30-1. And I procrastinate all day, so I don't even see the reason why I'd be wide awake.

Tomorrow is my teams first official season football game. I'm playing Defensive Tackle or Defensive End.

For sleeping, I normally go to bed around 3am-5am and wake up between 12pm-2pm

I hate spiders. I hate them so much. They're trying to keep me inside by putting up webs everywhere that I go. The garage, the trees, between the cars. They're just furthering my hatred of the outdoors. Thankfully it's still good indoors because we finally renewed Xbox Live~
Oh, and in unrelated news, I finally got my Learner's Permit. Now I can... I dunno what I can do.

I'm going to my school's homecoming dance in about half an hour. Just gotta get dressed and play some Animal Crossing before that though.

My school never had a homecoming and in all honesty I'm to sure what it is.

My schools homecoming had to be guarded with some rent a cops or something, they were official and that turned me away from it.

Apparently because I couldn't find another job yet, My parents are wanting me to be a Roughneck like my dad was. Not sure how to feel about this. I feel bad because I didn't really have a say in it. But I also feel alright with it because at least I'll have a better future than what I figured I'd have.

I had a court of honor in Boy Scouts today, and so I got the patch for going to Philmont and also the Life rank... That means that all there's really left for me now is working on Eagle... 3 years of scouting, on my 4th right now, the time goes by so fast... I remember being a small little first year with long hair and always thinking about being here... it's so weird, I've never thought about actually being one of the older people at anything. Worst part is, though, life doesn't slow down from here on out. :I

I absolutely can't wait. Wrestling sign ups are in a week That's my time to shine! I'm gonna need to cut on my food though. I'm gonna need to train hard until the tryouts come up. But ohh it's gonna be worth it, wrestling is my favorite sport and omg I can't wait....... Ahh wish me luck

Our football team won 21-0. LASAGNA DAY TOMORROW!!

It feels strange not having school tomo- technically today, actually. That means I can have a totally great day, then. Full of practicing for Honor Band auditions... I hope I get in. First chair would be great, too, but kind of absurd. I'm gonna be so nervous I might not even make it in to Honor Band, especially since I had to lie about what instrument I had.
Well, ignoring the possible disastrous outcomes of that, there's a football game on Saturday and... this is it... I have to dance to Gangnam Style in public... I'm dead.

I found out that next Wednesday, I have to leave for a marching band competition at 3:20 and I won't be back at school until midnight. I don't know why it was scheduled for Wednesday, but it doesn't change the fact that I don't like it.

Soo.. I just found out that this sophomore that I beat in camp.. Is going to varsity. Does that mean I can make varsity?

Ermahgerd that'd be sooooo sick if I made varsity.. Oh that would be amazing, i'd get so much respect for making varsity.. I can't even imagine.

Haven't been here in awhile :]

We're reaching the last minutes of September~
Ba de ya~ Say do you remember~?
Ba de ya~ Dancing in September~
Ba de ya~ Never was a cloudy daaaaay~
September is one of my favorite months. I don't know what it is, but it's just nice to me~ And a lot of good things happened this month that I'll never forget. This year's already starting to look like the best year of high school~

I've been so bored out of my mind lately like omg.
No one plays video games anymore because "Omgg, I have homework and I care about studies." I'm literally the worst high school student ever. I have so much late work and it's only a month into school.

And then there's no video games to play because Black Ops 2 doesn't come out until next month and the XBLA version of Minecraft got boring all of a sudden because the update was blasted all over Twitte and now it has me just waiting...

But seriously, forget homework. School is cool but homework, man. ;c

Oh the joys of multi-console gaming.

Since it was one of my friends birthday today, My other friends and I decided to get him a cake. For some reason the final writing on the cake was "Shut up and take this cake... Please!"
We also tried to get sparklers at a local gas station but they didn't sell any, So we settled with solid regular candles. In the end it was hilarious to see a cake with five stock candles representing 4.6 of life with a cake telling you to shut up... Oh it was funny.

My highschool football team (Canadian) is in varsity league. We have a game tomorrow.

I thought October was going to be a good followup to September, or maybe even better. But it was the opposite of both. It's been going completely downhill starting with Monday, and even though I'm still surprisingly in a good mood, I can feel myself falling apart.
But right now I'm mostly falling apart from how nervous I am because Honor Band auditions are tomorrow. I'm confident that I'll get in however, and hoping that I'm lucky enough to get first chair. I mean, I AM the only one who plays my specific instrument in high schools in this whole county.

My aunt came over for a week, and so far it's been interesting having her over
that and I need to get my doctor to sign my Athletics form before my schools basketball season starts so i can actually try out

A-level is hell. To all those in high school, enjoy it as much as you can; college tears you apart.

I am only taking three subjects; Mathematics, Biology and Chemistry. Yet for some reason, the amount of work I am doing is triple what I did back in IGCSE, despite studying eight subjects back then.

We had a Chemistry test last Tuesday, which I think I am going to barely pass. I am being optimistic here. The Biology test went well. The hardest one is Mathematics. Pure (Calculus), Mechanics and Statistics. These three are consuming most of my time. What is worse, I can't understand a figure in Statistics. Oh, the joy.

And by the way, I am having my SAT on Saturday. Any tips?

Well, I cant believe i raged at a Game sooooo Hard
i'll sum it up in 3 words,
God Damn Shenanigans

For some reason all of my classes that I have this semester are too easy

I have a bunch of homework I should be doing, which includes studying for my Japanese test, studying for my physics test, completing my Spanish project, doing some of my Spanish work booklet, complete my French work booklet and read "Brave New World" for English class by Thursday.

This past week for me has been especially rough, and the only thing that can really cheer me up is knowing that I'm about to get a copy of Black 2 today. I've been missing two of my cats that were taken off to the animal shelter about two weeks ago...and on top of this my job hunting has been going nowhere, and I'm beginning to lose my patience. I can't even land an entry-level part time job, and it's making me feel like I'm pathetic. Hopefully I can ease my frustrations playing Black 2.

Today is going to be a great day, I can tell - I woke up at 3 and couldn't fall back asleep all due to my lingering cough. Then after school, I have marching band in the cold air. A great day indeed.

Seems like graphics work is now much easier now that I've got a real monitor. I just spent some time creating my new signature... Man, the colours are easier to see and check now.

Tomorrow I'm heading to my orthodontist. Sounds normal enough, except this appointment is going to tell the ortho dentists whether I need surgery or not, so I am somewhat nervous. I just hope my gut instinct is right that I won't need it.

My day is turning sunny side up~

I went to my ortho appointment waiting for my dentist to tell me I need surgery. Turns out I won't need to if I keep doing what I'm currently doing. So looks like I won't need it!
When I got home, I got an E-mail saying a coin I ordered six months ago. ( This one ) is coming in the mail!

Man. My day is good today~

So after what was 1 day. My coin came in. It actually looks pretty cool, though a bit dim. Here's me holding it. You can actually see a bit of the glow in the dark bits outlined.

I just found out a friend of mine who constantly rips me for not taking care of my laptop broke his for the second time this year, and had to go send it in for repair.

I find it funny because what he calls careless caretaking is just two strips of duct tape holding rubber stoppers on the bottom because I didn't want to use glue.

(If you don't follow, I'm a crew member at KFC. Hope that helps)
I was at work on Thursday, and we had a FLOOD of customers coming in. So much that we ran out of mac and cheese, and had only enough corn to fill two small containers.
Someone went through the drive-thru, and ordered a 10 piece chicken meal with a large mashed potatoes and gravy, and a large mac and cheese, with an additional side of large sweet corn. So I have to go out there and remind him "sorry, sir, we've run out of mac and cheese. Did you want to throw something else in there?"
So he sighs, and says "fine, a large potato wedge."
So I get him that, but then I realize I have to go back out again and tell him "we only have enough corn for two small containers."
He sighs again, loudly, and says "just do what you can."
I get the two small containers of corn ready and I hand the meal out to him. Then he asks for a feedback form, which I replied that there should be a link to a website on the receipt. Then, he asks for my first and last name. Not knowing it's recommended I keep that secret from customers (more specifically my last name), I give him that.

I don't want to sound like I'm bashing a customer, considering I'm not allowed to, but it's not up to ME what we do and do not have.
Oh, I almost forgot, he came back yesterday, but rather than asking for a large mac and cheese and large sweet corn, he asked for a chocolate little bucket parfait...

That's the problem with some people - whenever they can't get what they want due to a shortage in food supplies, they blame the workers first rather than using logic to determine that other people got the food supplies first.

Psyched about the upcoming Deadpool movie.

Mmm, I'm bored today. What to do, aside from messing around with my tablet? I am taking a break from C++ coding today.

Mechanics is hard. Really. You think you know the concept but when it comes to the questions, you realise you cannot do anything.

I'm starting to get into the Halloween spirit! I've switched over to my pumpkin themed glaceon avatar, and I've been putting thought towards possible costume ideas. I probably won't go trick or treating, but instead go to a small party one of my cousin's is hosting. I won't be able to go as anything fancy though, since anything I come up with will have to be homemade. I'm thinking maybe a rocker of some sort, but I did that idea already...maybe I should try something like a "movie star" look. Trying to think outside the box here. I'm not really much for going as anything scary, though.

Hmmm... Electronics recycling, huh? Guess dead, out-of-warranty devices have to go somewhere. That's what happened with my old old phone that I've been using as a makeshift router lately.

Also, going out to eat can be expensive.

This week could've been better for me. I need more confidence, I can't do anything that my heart desires. Plus, I could've done myself a favor and not have lost my 3DS, putting me in an instant panic and turning to depression and... well, it's a good thing my mom found it. Now I'm back in the swing of things and ready to go on with success~

There was also a Marching Band Showcase on Wednesday. Even though we had like NO moves, I think we did pretty good. And we looked rrreeeeaaaally stupid during Gangnam Style, but I think that's the point. Dress classy, dance cheesy! X3

I never realised how tough it is to apply to universities overboard until now. It is quite the hassle.

Today I got informed that I have a job interview on Tuesday. I'm actually glad that possibly soon I'll be doing something during my days. I'm not holding out though. But hey, if it does work out, that's a plus in my books.

Indeed it's always difficult to even live in other countries, nevermind having to work everything out so you could have residence, a job, AND access to education. This is why when I talk about applying to Harvard for law eventually, it's a complete joke. (The reason why it wouldn't be a joke, is because to American universities, a Canadian 100% in a class is much more impressive than an American 100%.)
Aaaanyways, good luck, Spirit!

Thanks. I am waiting for my SAT result first. Supposedly, it will be out on Thursday. I am a bit nervous.

I find living abroad to be real expensive. Relatively, that is.

It's super expensive! No matter where you're moving to, it's a chore. When I'm in my late 20s/early 30s though I plan to move to Europe somewhere. It would be awesome! Especially considering the weather there is mild, exactly how I love it!

I actually just got accepted into another college in my state. The applications weren't as big of a deal as half my school made it out to be. In fact, I'd say they were rather simple.

It's the waiting-for-letter part that gets ya.

My biggest issue is financial aid. My father isn't capable of paying a university's fees, and what makes it worse is that I am pursuing Medicine, the most expensive field. I am worried that I would not be given this financial aid and end up not going to university.

Worst come to worst, you end up taking out a bunch of student loans and are in debt for awhile. It most certainly isn't the favorable option, but it's essentially the last resort if you want to go to a specific university.

Hmm... So I've taken a look at my room, and...

It's a total disaster. I think I'm going to buy some folders and racks to get things in shape.

Jelly is currently sick at the moment. I swear, if one person at my school gets sick, we all do. -.- I always tend to get sick in the Fall too, it's weird.

Just checking in to make post 11,000. Probably going to wait for post 11,111 then disappear from this thread.

So, how to make this post of any use to anyone...hm...I've been listening to the Soundtrack of Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse lately. Listening to Castlevania music is probably the closest I'll be getting to celebrate Halloween this year. Ok, that's what I got to say, somebody explode in celebration of 11,000 posts, kthxbye
