Mood: BOO!

Well...this is fun...Jamie's annoying friends are coming over...but that's not that bad...Bre is out at Metrotown doing something halloweem related, dressed as an angel...(yeah, right) and I'm here blogging...yay...But she'll probably swing around later...Nothing big has happened...except my want for some "destructive devices"...40mm grenades...M67 frag grenades...maybe even  MKIII Concussion grenades. A 12 gauge wouldn't be a bad idea either...ok, enough with the weapon talk...

How is everyone liking the new layout with the two shades of black, the various shades of grey and the very nice blue...It's been going alright for me...something other than the "cool" layout, to be different...and it matches the photoblog too...so that's good...I'm trying to get some things organized in my life...better to start small...My media analyist paper..yeah, I'm glad I don't have to get up early on tuesdays because I'm not going to get it done tonight and tomorrow night is my last chance...it's going to be slap dab, but when it's 20%....anything of that is good...besides, I'm killing the exams and those are 25%...so lessons for next semester...no procastination...Psych and the higher crims are going to throw papers...I should be keeping ontop of them from day one of the course....Whatelse? English? yeah...might need to take a few english courses...I feel so bad about english and everything about it...I guess grade 12 doesn't prepare anyone for anything...too bad...Rideout said a few classes ago, he printed out a copy of the grade 12 exam...and he said he was sorry for us...he also said is was foolishly easy...and I got 90%....why?

Slow night...I should go cause some trouble just to do something...but then that wouldn't be that fun....why are kids at the door staring at me...? oh, yeah...I look like I got shit kicked...it's not that realisitc...jeeze.....

Well...here's something...an SED scene....:
“Why doesn’t he like Halloween?” Megan asked, as she forced the brush into the glock.
” He doesn’t know what do shoot at.” Elphor laughed.
”Don’t joke about that.” Jeremy scolded. ‘So what if I once, took a shot at a 6 year old in a demon mask.”
”Not a very good shot, are you?” Megan’s sarcasm was obvious.
”Who says I missed?”  Jeremy said with a grim face.
Megan stopped cleaning her gun, and the shocked silence was overwhelming.
Jeremy started laughing. “Rookie, for a Psyop, you sure can’t tell when people are lying.”
”Don’t laugh; I have to focus to actually sense emotions and thoughts. I’m not that good yet.
”That” Elphor added, “and Jeremy able to block off his mind to psys anyway.”
”Oh”
”You’ve been trying to read me. I know” Jeremy said, still loading UMP magazines and placing them into the vest pouches on the table.

“That how I get to know people.” She said, without looking up from her pistol.
”Ever tried talking to them rookie? That’s generally how normal people get to know each other.”
”ffice:smarttags" />Normal? I’m not the one with the nanite seepage freak strength and who hangs with a midget.”
Hey! Don’t use the M word!” Elphor barked. He raised his axe in a mocking fashion; he then proceeded to sharpen it with a sharpening stone.
”For someone who’s invincible, you sure can’t take a joke.” Megan said, now zeroing the sites on XM8.

It's about a paranormal agency....yeah, just read it at face value...now the color is going to be messed up...

Oh well, I'll fix it later...

16 Days and Counting...

Reese Peanut Butter Cup Hangover...

yes, that what I did...answered the door...watched halloween movies on TV (and Buffy) and ate about a million peanut butter cups, as that's what we were giving out...the night was slow...hardly any kiddies came...my pumpkin (the big one) turned out great...pics to follow...But Bre didn't call...Miller did...said he was setting off fireworks with Mramor and the rest...but this shows how much I don't want to hang with Miller...I didn't go...oh well..again..fireworks and drunk people=bad...

It is my favourite month of year...NOVEMBER! October, you have  two annoying comercial holidays...Halloween and Thanksgiving...it's still about the start of school (still) and everything is messed up from that. December...Christmas...the cold depths of winter and the thoughts of "being alone at christmas time" But Novemeber...Rememberance day is nice...never forget. The weather is cold enough to focus the mind and not numb the soul. I love november...

I have class in the morning, I should have left my cell phone number with rideout to get the midterm marks early...but I don't care...I'm just going to take it and carry on. If that means I'm out of the Crim Acceptence program, so be it...I'll have to face that demon when it raises it's head...I feel like crap right now and I'm going to try to get some sleep before the 6am alarm goes off and my horrid monday starts...Crim Paper all nighter...and a lonely heart that's not going away....

Mood: ok

I just took a walkabout campus... in the rain...but it was mostly inside so it wasn't that bad...I don't know...Still recovering from a Reese Cup hangover and I don't think the coffee helped one bit...but I'm probably going to have one more before the day as done...as tonight stands, I'm not sleeping. If I get home at 8...9-11 will be dedicated to finding the 10 articles I need. Not hard, just boring. 11-5 will be writing. I say if I can manage a page per article, I'll be gold. So I'll probably get to bed around 6 in the morning. I can get at least 6 hours of sleep if I get up at noon and make it to campus at 1 for 2pm Crim 1100...But one thing, I'm so happy about...Crompton is going to explain exactly want she wants for the 10 page paper!!!! YAY! Apparently the other class got a copy of the approved topics. She forgot about us...oh well...but I'm happy! Not including the crim 1101 paper, I have two more written home assignments. English has a poetry take home essay ( I bombed the midterm...but what I got right, I did good...he didn't even mark some of the quote stuff because it was so wrong. I hope creative writing counts as an  english course...) and the law paper. If I use the Charter Rights that apply when one is arrested (all 8 of them) I can turn out a pretty good paper and learn something at the same time. Yay me! I do like the umbrella I'm using right now...picked it up a the dollar store for cheap and it's holding up to constant use. When not in use, it's either on the crook of my arm or jammed into my bag...How British of me...I needed it this morning. Cold, windy and raining. Not a good combination. But I can deal...Part of me wants to drop by the theatre this week...the other part of me...really doesn't want to...but we'll see...if my wednesday turns out boring...I might just go sit in the back and see how long it takes people to notice. My last record was 20 minutes. The One acts are next week..I think and I won't be able to attend tuesday...as Crim 1101 ends at 8 and the time it would take me to get ready and get down to the theatre...wouldn't make it...but to keep tradition...I might try it...we'll have to see...maybe if my caffine level holds out...I think I have a major addiction...but I'm working on it.

Whatelse, Whatelse, Whatelse?

No, I got nothing,but let's see what I can pull out. I love the rain, especially novemeber rain...isn't that a song or something? I should look that up when I get the chance...In Ipod news, it's getting near the 3gig mark with over 780 someodd songs. I've noticed the range...Eminem...Matt Dusk...John Mayer...Blue Rodeo...Nirvana...I can go on...I'm working on a mega playlist right now, of all the big songs of the past season. Speaking of the past...I finally figured out how to access my stats for this site and wow, I'm surprised how many people are actually coming by and yet, leave no message...oh well, as long as people know I'm here..."Hailey Cleric" seems to be a very popular search phrase...but that could be due to me testing the search engines...I may have mentioned this...but I saw "Kiss of the Dragon" on TV a couple of days ago...worst Jet Li movie...Worst Luc Besson movie...why? Well, it says "based on a story by Jet Li"...actor, not a writer...oh well...I actually watched most of it...but it is stupid....Luc Besson...Professional II? Portman will do it if a script in presented...I hope they won't do a prequel and bring back Reno. I mean, that would be cool, but I've seen Reno kick ass in many movies...Did you know he gave up the role of Agent Smith to do his shit role in Godzilla? Hugo Weaving was awesome...I can't picture anyone else as Smith. Omar and I still disagree about the last two matrix films...they were crap...Omar says otherwise...we've almost killed each other over it...but I have changed my mind on the Punisher, after seeing Man on Fire...you only need to see one...but Man on Fire is better.

I tried to nap in the lobby today...it was ok. I think I got an hour in. Anything is better than nothing. I got to be at 3 last night and somehow, I woke up at 6...I gave myself another half an hour and then I got up. Oddly enough, those 30 minutes helped. Part of me wants to leave Comp Sci early to start the paper...but that would be bad. I shouldn't sacrifice courses to do other course work...But I'll tough it out and learn nothing new...what could the lectures be on these days...who knows? who cares...The midterm? Don't care...I should have done alright, but it was a very picky exam...

ok, I'm done...I'll probably add another during comp sci, time permitting...

Mood: ok

So...what to say? Another one of those Seaquamite lunch times...these seem to happen every monday. oh well...so what else? Nothing much has changed since last entry....the proposed timetable for tonight still stands I'm I'm going to stick by it...or I'll be dead by the time 2pm rolls around and I'm in Crim 1100...luckily for me...I'm very good at  that class and I don't seem to take notes anyway...I made it seem today that I was on Crompton's side...no, not at all...she spent the whole class retelling a story she spent last class explaining. Why? To illistrate how people can be falsly charged...I'm not telling her I'm planning to go into law enforcement...as she pretty much has no respect for the police...I might change those plans anyway...if the eye sight thing doesn't work out...Forensic Psychology is always an option. I know, no gun...but I think it's moved beyond things like that....but I have a feeling techology is going to catch up and the fact I'm blind without contacts isn't going to be an issue...Did I mention that I hated this course? So pointless...Lichimo has just informed me all the files for the last 3 labs I've done have been corrupted and unmarkible...she also can't find the files or the hardcopy of Assignment two...oh no...she must have lost them...
But some (read most) of the people I've met in this school, are in this class...so I can't argue with that...and hell, I've met them both off campus too...weird...so...not much going on...

Ok, I'm doing cheezy bitmap drawing

14 days and counting

I got the paper done at 4...cleaned up the mess for two hours...Went to bed at 6am (when I usually get up) and fell asleep...Got up at noon, made it to school  at one and was ready of class by 2...what a day. So what to say...no big events. No profound thoughts..well except

If knowledge is power, how can ignorance be bliss?

Came up with that in Crim...could have been said before...Welsh commented on the makeup job from last class...he actually thought it was real...(sigh) and this guy has a PHD in psychology....Yeah, I'm done...too bad, I was hoping for more to say...

Mood: Tired
13 days and counting

No, I'm not  getting philisophical, What I mean is that why do I come this early to college if my first (and only class) is in about 3 hours? Still working on the answer...I'm no morning person, but I do it if I have to, but what if I don't have to? Would I still do it? yes...

ok...after that pointless moment, let's get on to trivial things...my room is a sty...as in the "common room" after jamie's halloween "party"...so my afternoon will probably getting those rooms into some form of order. Due to reasons beyond anyones control, Jamie couldn't particpate in the annual "Take Your Kid to Work" day...so that lucky bastard is still in bed and is going to be home all day...Even though I'll get home in the early afternoon...so I dont really mind...it's just the principle of the thing. I think I've finally come down off the caffine/sugar bender...wait...binge...BINGE...that I was on for the all nighter of monday night. I can hardly move right now, yet I managed to get out of bed at 6:30..even though I usually do at 6....and I'm not a morning person...Yet here we are...Rumor has it the boyz are planning a 2 day Halo II blowout next weekend...as Omar, Ryan, Miller (he's getting bearable) and all of Ryan's other friends are getting the much hyped game...so we're going to blow our brains out over it. Maybe even get on line with a group of other guys half way around the world....technology...what a world....Hmm..I seem to be the only one here....I guess it is 8..and any sane person that would be here would have class....when I say here..I mean the comps in G building. I think I now know where all the lobby chairs are now....(sigh)....My feelings of excitement have now turned to shock and terror as law class moves closer...Crompton is hopefully going to explain the 10 page (minus title page, cites, and references) 30% of our mark Critical Analyist paper...now I wanted to get this thing going because i was terrified of it...then I wanted her to explain it...now I'm just terrified of it...But I do want to know what to do. My ideas are sound enough and law seems to encourage spin and bull...so I'll be fine...but then again...I've been saying that for a lot of things (english midterm)

So I've been thinking about my classes for next semester...
1) Forensic Anthroplogy
2) Intro Psych
3) Psycholocial Explanation of Crime
4) 2nd English Course-I'm hoping I can do an online creative writing course
5) Intro to Policing

With the english course, they considered creative writing a seperate branch (Creative Writing is listed as a CRWR not as an ENG Course) but i really want to stretch my creative writing muscles and get some good marks for it. It's an online course too, so that would take the place of comp sci as a "slacker" class...slacker in quotes because I work really hard on that course, but the work is easy. I'm going to be prepping the material I need to register...like last semester, it is online and I need to have all the course codes and times and stuff and worked out a good time table...What I want for the next semester is 2 courses a day for 4 days. I'd even take 2 a day for 5 if that means no mornings and no 3 hours courses...well...3 hours comp courses....I've set a rule saying no classes before 8 or after 4....but that might not happen...oh well..nothing is perfect...To expand on previous thoughts about November being the best month of the year...out of all the 12 months...I like the cold weather...so March, April, May, June, July, August are just no fun....January is cold, but it's all about "starting new" with resolutions and garbage like that...February in recent time has just become more depressing that it was in previous years...Valentines Day is a dark cloud...so much pressure to be with someone...I'll talk about that one in a few months...as we get closer to the one year aniversery of the blog...I'll want to bring that up again. Sept is back to the daily grind..and no matter how far away I get from a school system...it will always mean that...October is thanksgiving and that is getting more and more pointless as years progress as is Halloween(ugh) and Decemeber is so commerical and so cold (TOO COLD) that it's the month where you should bury yourself in a closet(I don't own a cave) and sleep...hibernation is actually a good idea...But November...you have this sweet little month with perfect "Cleric" weather and  no major commerical holiday (I'm Canadian) so we have rememberance day...which is very cool...well....in the way we remember our fallen heroes that went to war to fight for the world we have today...My Generation has no great war, our great war is a spiritual one...our great drepression is...well..you get the rest....I have to stop weaving in Fight Club quotes into everything...I could quote most of it from memory, yet when I need to do it for a monlouge...nothing...(sigh) acting...what about it? One Acts are coming out and yet I am no part of it, I still feel stressed about it...maybe it's been encoding into me and I can't help it. But, traditionally November has meant the bulk of the work done for one acts..and any acting student will tell you...with the right cast and play and no dennett interference...One Acts are the best time of the year....Rain and A Christmas Carol...if you take away all of the problems that occured in my life after those events(Anthony, Bender, etc)  and just look at the rehearsal period itself...they were some of the best times of my life. But I have a feeling the acting class this year doesn't feel that way...maybe they do...based on the level of Dennett Interference. It's a proven fact the moral of the cast is correlative to the amount of dennet interference (negative correlation)...I hope I can swing the first night of plays on the tuesday...maybe...if they start at 8, I can make it...I'll bring the groupie bat...or at least the collaspible baton...(If I saw that thing running around in my backyard I'd get out the Compound Bow...Strong Bad)
When I get home today, I'll put out my halloween pictures on the photoblog...I found homstarrunner patterns and I decided to do Homestar...most of the other pics were of me and the make up job...and me goofing off because I had nothing better to do.

The US Election
I don't even understand the system they used...electoral votes...popular votes...hanging chads...(sigh) the only "news" broadcast i watched last night was The Daily Show...That Colbert guy can keep a straight serious face even when saying things like "Shut your ugly, gaping cake hole fatty" While waiting for Crim yesterday, everyone weighted in on their opinion of the situation....it is a lesser of two evil system...after all...they are American no matter who is president...that's never going to change...unless "Arnuld" becomes president...(sigh) Celebrities and politics shouldn't mix...I don't care about P Diddy's "Vote or Die" it should be vote and die...which we talked about before Crim and the daily show later mentioned it...freaky? Yeah!

Today on campus is the "Your Path" Career Fair...for people who have no idea what to do with themselves...but since I know...I don't care...just mentioning it because they were very loud during the set up and it got on my nerves. But my plans for afterclass...probably sandwich and a coffee...a bit of house work and a nap...oh boy...

so I'm done...

Mood: Not that good

A letter from Kwantlen reads that to maintain prioity registration I must get a C in each course and a 2.0 or greater GPA. Oh boy...they say to expect a college mark drop...I can swing that in all the courses except english...it's going to take a lot of work to swing english...time to get to work....

Today was a boring day...like they all seem to be. Not like my should be an exciting one, I'm a fucking college student. But I do try to make everyday exciting, it just doesn't work...

I have ended 2 parts with "work"...weird..something else that was weird? Crompton was talking about law firms and such, the mentioned "Senior Partners"...my first thoughts go Angel then to Jenny...I have no life. But that's ok...exsisting has become more important to me these days...just being here...because somedays I look back and realized I could have died several times before...mostly by my own hands...but I was born prematurely too...I think if I would die tomorrow, I could accept it and I wouldn't care...that's odd for an eighteen year old...without a terminal illness...right?

It's another one of those "blah" nothing big day...too bad...but hey, not everyone of  these can be gems. That means this will either become a song of the moment entry, or a stupid creative writing entry. Either way...it's a bomb..sometimes I think I shouldn't write everyday and only write when the mood strikes me and I can write something good...but then again, it's nice to have a small entry for everyday, no matter how boring it may or maynot be.  I still don't have the energy or the time to do the so called "Kwat Photo Essay:" Maybe sometime next week...pending on how sane/insane I become. The plan will probably go early on a tuesday and work on it then. Maybe I can get some real use out of the Photoblog and the digi camera...I'm thinking more artisic shots than posed. We'll see...

Tomorrow...a so-called perfect thursday as I've said in other entries...yeah, not so much after the recent english drought...Even if my marks aren't stellar, I'm still enjoying the class...Rideout can teach...he just can't mark and I can't write...what a combination....I was thinking today of all my teachers nicknames over the years...
Lenny, Wardo, Dukie, Huey, Cromp, Mr. D (asshole was more common), Doc Welsh...some aren't really nicknames...and Dukie was for Hiduk, a grade 9 and 11 english teacher...who my brother now has and fears as did I in grade 9....oh the more things change the more they stay the same. 

Current Gun Theme? Westerm weapons...circa...1853-1908...including Colt SAA, Winchester 1883 Carbines, 1886 Rifles and 1908 10 gauge shotguns...the 10 gauge shotgun has become almost too powerful and no one uses it...but it used to be a force to reckon with in the wild west. Doc Holiday (Doc because he was a dentist) carried one. Why am I doing this? New character for the SED project...a zombie cowboy...SED is (For those who read the halloween entry and have no idea) means Special Enforcement Division. It's more of a funny goofy story about a bunch of over armed, over amped agents that deal with paranormal activity with guns-a-blazing...fun....

Well, I'm done...
