Ok, I'm mad. I had this entire post written and then accidently closed the window and lost it all. It's not like you care, but oh well.

Let me start again. Anyway. I had a really clever opening line, but I forgot it, so I'll just start into the story. Last night I can't remember how many times I died. Not literally but in the computer. I was about ready to retire to my room about 10:00 and play UT2004. I had just installed it that afternoon and hadn't played it yet. But almost immediately I was drafted for a suedo-LAN party of Halo that the hall started up. The four people that have XBoxes started a 16 person LAN game and they needed one more person, who am I to inconvience. The games were pure craziness. Screams echoed down the hall of "You b****!" and "F*** you [Insert Name Here]!" It must have been quite amusing to anyone listening out the window. And trust me you could definitely hear us from outside, I'm sure of that. Fun, fun.

Then after the frag fest, I came back to my room and realised that I still hadn't played UT2004 yet. So I woke my computer up and turned on the game. Set up my profile YoMan_ (comment if you want to play!) and set up my character skin. Then I joined a deathmatch server and started fragging away. Let me say that the levels are absolutely gorgeous! I have it set on 1280x1024 and all the details on Very High. It runs smooth, sharp, and you can feel every severed arm as it splats against the wall from a well placed flak shot. I found a good server and played for a long time. There were maybe 12 people playing. Me and four other people were almost dead even every single game. It was a real contest to see who was number one. Then I realised it was after 4:00 and I had a 9:00 class the next morning. So I decided to call it a night. Hey four hours sleep is better than none. Fun. Fun.

What else is going on ... Oh the other day I was walking down the sidewalk, and someone handed me a brochure advertising a comedy show by none other than Bob Saget. Thats right, the Full House, America's Funniest Home Videos, Danny Tanner, Bob Saget. And get this, at the bottom of the paper it said, "Show contains mature content." I almost want to go just to see the dad from the Brady Bunch show of the 90s tell jokes with adult content. That would be funny in and of itself. Seriously though I'm thinking of going just to say that I saw him in person. That would make him the second most famous person I've seen. The first being Bill Nye.

Another thing happened that is both kind of funny and not funny at the same time. Alright, I don't know if you know but the other week my calculus teacher asks me if I wouldn't mind tutoring someone in my class. I said sure, why not. It would be good to help someone else out. So I met with my tutee (is that would you'd call it?) and we worked out some problems together. She seemed to understand the basic concepts, but when it came to actually don't the problems she would always get hung up on different parts. So we worked a few days that week to get ready for the calculus exam, which was last Monday. So Monday came and went and I didn't see her anywhere. Then today I run into her and ask when she wanted to meet again. She told me that she didn't really need to be tutored anymore because she was going to withdraw from the course. Apparently her test score was so bad that she basically had no chance to recover so she's going to withdraw to avoid an F on her record. So ... not funny: she's in the engineering school and will be withdrawing from calculus (a required course) and who knows how she'll get it back, if she decides to become an engineer at all. Funny: my first time ever tutoring someone, we work together for one week, and then she flunks the test and has to withdraw from the course. How am I going to tell my teacher?! "Um, excuse me Prof. Beck, you know the student you set me up to tutor, well after my help and instruction she proceeded to fail the test. And apparently she did so bad her only alternative is to withdraw from the class." Haha. Interesting situation.

Ahh, never a lack of excitement at college.

Bleh.
You can't help the stupid-ness, Chris, it's just everywhere. It could be worse, at RBC, we're still... factoring polynomials. I want to just... hurt somebody. Good lord, I've already taken pre-calculus and if it wasn't for that moronic guidance counselor, I would have had calculus senior year.
