So, as of right now I'm chilling at home waiting for 5 o'clock to roll around so that i could go to work.
I've been so damn bored lately, cuz I don't have school this week due to my break in between quarters. I guess you could say this is my spring break, but whatever.
Anyways, I haven't really gotten much accomplished during this break, but it is nice to not have any insane projects looming over my head. I was very disappointed in myself this past quarter, I could have done a lot better, but somewhere in there I just fell apart. I really need to make sure I don't do that next quarter.
As of now, my cumulative GPA is 3.0 on the money, and I believe I need to maintain a 2.8 if I want to do freelance work.. soooo.. I need to shape up or I'm not going to make it anywhere. I just really don't know if my heart is in it anymore.
I dunno, I just need to find something to get me motivated. That's all I need.
I have to take College Algebra over again this quarter because I had to drop it 2 quarters ago. I am not thrilled by this, and to make matters a lot worse, I have the same teacher again!
This is very very bad, because she is an intense teacher. She teaches way waaay to fast for my brain to register what she's saying. It's already bad enough it's math, that stuff turns me off the second I hear the word variable.
Anyways, I'm considering taking it online... but that's another red flag because it's very difficult to learn anything in the online algebra class, since basically you get an assignment and you do it and your done. You have your book and stuff so you basically have to teach yourself. Am I really able to do that?
it's a very tough call. But if I took the online class I would only have 2 days of class again which would be very nice.
Who knows what's vest, but I need to decide by Tuesday...
I think when it all comes down to it, it's all a matter of discipline and motivation. If I can get my ass in gear, who knows what I'm capable of.
...
So why is it so hard to get my ass in gear?

Pumped For Summer Movie Season
So, the other night I finally saw TMNT.
What did I think of it?
Well...
I THOUGHT IT WAS FUCKING INCREDIBLE, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT!
Yes, it was satisfying in almost every way. Hell, I saw it twice for crying out loud. It was gorgeous, pretty action packed, had an alright story and really wasn't as kiddy as speculated. Watching it was basically one giant trip to memory lane, for the turtles were basically my life when I was younger. I had a ton of figures, all the movies and many VHS tapes of copied episodes. I loved the turtles, and I still do to this day. that's why I was so glad TMNT diddn't blow. I would have basically lost all hope in the world not to mention regret every moment of my childhood if it blew.
But it diddn't, so it's all good.
Seeing this movie got me really psyched for the upcomming summe rmovie season. I am ALL ABOUT the movie theaters during the summer, and this summer looks to be the biggest one yet. I'm not joking.. the amount of rediculous blockbusters is outlandish, and god damn it I plan to see every single one.
The huge amounts of films that I plan to see are as follows:
(All in order of release)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters
Grindhouse
Spiderman 3
28 Weeks Later
Shrek The Third
Pirates Of The Carribean: At World's End
Rise Of The Silver Surfer (Fuck the Fantastic Four, I refuse to accept the movie is about them.. it's the Silver Surfer movie god damn it.)
Evan Almighty
Live Free or Die Hard
Rataouille
Transformers
Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix
The Simpsons Movie
The Bourne Ultimatum
Rush Hour 3
Mr. Woodcock
Resident Evil: Extinction
I'm sorry, I'm a serious dork, I know, but movies have become something big for me, I love them, and I'm psyched to see all of these.
I'm in store for a lot of popcorn, and a lot of bitching about having no money.

A Day In The Life
Ok, so, I don't have school or work today and I have a ton of shit to do... what better time to do it than a day where you don't have any other priorities?
Heh. C'mon, we all know that's not how I roll.
No, in fact, Instead of that I basically spent the entire day editing movies. You see, I was suddenly inspired yesterday morning to film what happens in my day. A blog of sorts I guess you can say. It turned out pretty damn sweet if I say so myself, a bit long though. It spans 4 parts each part being about 5-9 minutes long. But oh well, It's still cool.
The rest are here
Let me know what you think.

Turn around... Every now and then I get a little bit lonely
It is now Typography class and I have to do a project but what am I doing instead?
Playing DOTS multiplayer with Dave while he is listening to Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" on repeat and I'm listening to Bjork.
I'm having a blast.

Spring is here while I'm at The Black Parade.
It's absolutely stunning outside today. Proof spring is finally rearing it's head. I like spring.. because it's warm, but not to hot. However, spring is bumped down to #2 in the ranks of favorite season behind Fall just for the simple fact that I don't have to cut the grass during fall. And that is just awesome.
I hate cutting the grass.
Today was absolutely perfect for taking a walk. We decided to roam previously uncharted areas of Pittsburgh just because it was so nice. The only thing that sucks is that I was absolutely exhausted today (Dur dur dur Jordan you dumbass go to bed for once in your life.) and walking for an hour and a half or so totally killed me.
I think I'm just out of shape.
Lately, I can't stop listening to my Chemical Romance's new album. And to be honest I'm a little ashamed of it because MCR is just one of those bands that irritates the fuck out of me... but this new style they have goin here I really dig. The whole album is just crafted so well I can't put it down just because a bunch of homos made it. I might (MIGHT) even go as far as to say it's one of the best (to me, anyway) albums of 2006. In my top 5, probably, which would go something like this.
5. MCR- The Black Parade (Wild ride of emotions)
4. Mushroomhead - Savior Sorrow (Eerie, hard, mellow and brilliance wrapped into one package)
3. (tie) Burden Brothers - Mercy (The perfect new age rock album. Period.)
3. Stone Sour - Come What(Ever)May (The perfect current age hard rock alternative metal... thing. period.)
2. In Flames - Come Clarity (A brutal masterpeice. Finally an album to finally leap the hurdle of the same mediocre nu-metal we've been hearing for the past half a decade.)
1. Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere (The Crazy Go-Go Gadget Gospel packed with everything including the kitchen sink called St. Elsewhere. Wonderfully covers Gone Daddy Gone while still keeping on Smiley Faces even if there is a Boogie Man near by. Don't forget to Feng Shui your environment, it's Just A Thought. Who Cares about Transformers and Necromancers Online, there's a Storm Coming. This is probably the Last Time you'll listen to something so brilliant. In all seriousness... this album sticks out as the best for one fact and one fact only. It's not afraid to tear down walls. It sends chills down your spine only to get your foot tapping next song. This album is brilliant and that's all there is to it.)
I don't know, I could very well get sick of MCR very quickly. I tend to do that with music sometimes. If anything though.. it will forever have a place in my heart as that album I hate to love.

The Ever So Popular Sleep Bitching
MAN blowing off school work is sweet. I have half a painting and 1 english question to do and I honestly could probably get it all done and be in bed by 1.. but I'm in such a great mood I think I'm gonna pull another all nighter.
You'd think I would have learned my lesson concerning my fucked up sleep schedule as of late... but to be honest it's to much fun to pass up. It's odd, because I get more done at night than I do during the day. Just for some reason I'm much more motivated at night. That's why 90% of my homework is done then. Maybe I work better under pressure.. I don't really know. It's just odd.
I love watching adult swim twice in a row. It'll come on at 10:30 or whatever and it'll repeat at 2. If I keep it on the entire night I get to watch it twice. Double dose of Futurama, Aqua Teen and Metalocalypse is ALWAYS a good time.
Multiple cans of vault lining my desk is sweet too.
Caffeine is another one of those things that I love but at the same time hate. Caffeine is practically my blood.. but I think it has fucked me up a bit. I'm beat during the day and wired during the night. When I actually do sleep I sleep for many many hours at a time... however when I am awake I can stay up for many many hours without feeling much of a side effect, which is nice. I just know it's going to catch up to me in a big way. My parents hate it.. because I sleep all day and stay up all night.. but that's just how I roll I guess. Plus I think if I cut off caffeine and pop I'd lose those couple of pounds that I'm so itching to shave off...
Oh well.. with all that said I'm going to put off my work some more and drink more vault.
