Oh man I forget how much school takes of your day. 7 hours plucked from your life is something you can't help but notice...especially when it comes to blogging! Like all the other students out there, I'm sure that I won't be updating or commenting as much either...it makes me sad...but such sacrifices must be made in the name of education

So, yesterday was gymnastics and I was too tired to update, so I'll fill you all in now. Haha I tried my first front flip yesterday on the normal floor...I landed somewhat squat-ish, but at least I got it 2 more practices till backhandspring, I swear! Elaine sprained her ankle We were practicing front handsprings over these mat things, and she undershot the mat, and as she was coming down, her heel caught the back of it . Ahhh...her first gymnastics practice left her with such memorable adventures .

Anyways, today was the first day of school . Usually I'd be a little apprehensive, but after 11 years and a little growing up, it didn't really phase me. There's not a lot of people who I know in my classes, but it doesn't bother me as much as it used to. I'm more comfortable around people I don't know nowadays. That's a good thing. So I won't go over my schedule, since that'll just be boring , but sufficeth to say that my teachers are a lot better around this year, even the classes are so difficult.

People always said Junior year was the hardest...and I guess I never really believed them lol. Basically I have to write nearly 2 essays a week, and as much as I love writing I don't know if I'm that devoted . I'm still stuck in metalshop for the time being, but I'm prepared to stick with the class if changing to yearbook means messing up the rest of my schedule. It'll probably be good to get some handson experience anyway.

So I have a test tomorrow, one on Friday, and some homework tonight. Lol they just don't cut you any slack. I'd rather have a tight schedule than a boring one though...maybe I should be careful for what I wish for

Ok I'm bored. I'm counting the minutes till gymnastics today...bah!

In the meantime, I realized that I have OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder for those who were unaware ). I was attempting to write a rough draft for my essays last night, and I had a strong urge to make it perfect, despite the fact it was merely a draft for constructive purposes. That and also when I was little I would also have to touch the milk cartons at the grocery store and grab every single coupon from those automatic dispensers. Sadly, I counted each and every one of those things...and ended up having stashed somewhere between 800-900 of those buggers inside my car. Lol, I hope I cost Albertson's $$$ Oh yes, and lets not forget sleeping on the cold side of the pillow. If it got too hot I'd start freaking out. What's changed since then? Well...we won't go into that XD.

Ahhh this is so frustrating. My computer has issues viewing certain members pages for some unknown reason. I either get a bunch of CSS or just the NUtrol and the Navbar. Sometimes a combination of both. So in order to honor these people whom I cannot comment myself, I've created a list as an excuse to why I'm not ever on your site :
Ikimashokie
GotMilk
Serendipity
Cher_Lyny
Thaitanic
cKybayside
TheZebra

Well that's all whom I've come across thus far :) If I'm forgetting anyone...sorry . Mmm...enough excuses for today. There are gangsters playing loud, annoying rap music outside my house and it's currently driving me insane so I should probably leave before I cause any damage to NUtang. Peace.

-EDIT-
Oh yeah, forgot to mention I made a few changes to the site, primarily the Nutrol and the new banner. The quote is from The Matrix, one of my favorite movie trilogies of all time (in case you havne't taken a look at my template lol). Well...at least most of the quote ;-) I may have added just a little personal, Nutang blog twist. Yup, very exciting.

Well, I'm pretty sure you've heard from a lot of different blogs by now, that Steve Irwin the Croc Hunter passed away...strange, I never really imagined a stingray being capable of something like that. Passing that barb right through his heart? I didn't even know they could move that fast or be big enough to do that...my opinion changed once I saw this however:

I found that somewhere on the web...those buggers can get pretty big. Well, at least it was painless.

In other news, Dave started a new site called everdayvids.com and I happened to stumble across this vid that I thought was pretty funny...then again it may just be male political humor in action XD

If you didn't know, the song that they do the music to is based on one done by the Beach Boys :D. And also, I'm not sure if Bush says "Haliburton" or Hallie Barrie lol...see for yourself!

So it sounds like the trip to Oregon with my old team is gonna have to get called off...Elaine can't make it because she leaves to college 2 days before my family is available, and honestly if she's not going I don't want to either . Speaking of Elaine...gymnastics is tomorrow! Woot, and this time Elaine is gonna try it out with the rest of us. I really hope she can join Hotdogs too...although college tuition+ hotdogs+ her sister also doing it would be really hard on her parents. We'll see.

Until next time folks!

Ahh, school's almost starting and I don't know if I'll get the classes that I want...I signed up for yearbook as my elective (which is 6th period), but somehow they put my electives 5th period...and they were metalshop and business law! Lol, they sound a lot like me, eh [insert evil sarcasm]?

On a lighter note, it sounds like I'm going to be getting a job soon and my permit too haha. I can drive...just not...legally XD. (aww crap...smilies aren't working agian). I have to make a resume and submit it to one of my former teammate's mom, who has "connections." Haha hopefully something will work out. Anybody here gotten their permit yet? I imagine each state has a little different way of doing things, but like what are the basic questions they ask you? Lol, I don't wanna fail...I know how to drive, but the trivial stuff just kills me, especially when they nitpick. Help XD

--In other news--
In hindsight, this was probably not the best idea...but lol what the heck I'll just take a swing at it anyway. I signed up for the NWF thingymabob, against Dilated the man himself *insert fighting swordsman smiley that currently isn't working*!


Ready, set...go!
