Just writing that I'm still alive, just not active. I now work at the Whitehall Wesco right off the highway, next to McDonalds. Graduated from MCC a few months ago, have my associates degree. Still dating Manda. Ummm... Yeah, I guess that's it. Aron
In my English 102 class (yeah I know that was a while ago, just now getting around to writing this), my teacher gave us the first page of a very odd book. The book never ends and is written completely in phonetics (Irish phonetics at that!) The beginning of the book pick up in the middle of a sentence, the continuation of the last sentence of the book, which obviously ends in the middle of a sentence too. The book has no real beginning or end. This is the first page that my professor (Mike Johnson) gave us:
riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.
Sir Tristram, violer d'amores, fr'over the short sea, had passencore rearrived from North Armorica on this side the scraggy isthmus of Europe Minor to wielderfight his penisolate war: nor had topsawyer's rocks by the stream Oconee exaggerated themselse to Laurens County's gorgios while they went doublin their mumper all the time: nor avoice from afire bellowsed mishe mishe to tauftauf thuartpeatrick: not yet, though venissoon after, had a kidscad buttended a bland old Isaac: not yet, though all's fair in vanessy, were sosie sesthers wroth with twone nathandjoe. Rot a peck of pa's malt had Jhem or Shen brewed by arclight and rosy end to the regginbrow was to be seen ringsome on the aquaface.
The fall
(bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk!) of a once wallstrait oldparris retaled early in bed and later on life down through all Christian minstrelsy. The great fall of the offwall entailed at such short notice the pftjschute of Finnegan, erse solid man, that the humptyhillhead of humself promptly sends an unquiring one well to the west in quest of his tumptytumtoes: and their upturnpikepointandplace is at the knock out in the park where oranges have been laid to rust upon the green since devlinsfirst loved livvy.
Hard to read, makes a lot more sense when read outloud (though you sound like a fool). Some words and saying are Irish things, so they don't make sense unless you have a professor that lived in Ireland for a while (yay for me!) If you have someone that can speak the dialect read it to you it sounds even more like actual English. But anyways, enjoy!
-=-=Love is like heaven, but it hurts like hell.=-=- -
This is something someone posted in one of the forums I read, I enjoyed it, and decided to post it on here.
-Because you love someone, doesn't mean it's always true
Because they love someone else, doesn't mean it's always true
Just because you feel like your willing to give yourself to that person doesn't mean its true
-True love can't just be "I love you"
True love cant be "I want you"
True love cant be "Give me your body"
True love is... not only from the eyes, not only from the body, not only from the heart.
What true love is, when one is wiling to easily throw away one's life for that person.
What what true love is, when one is willing to live with that person, no matter the faults, guilts, or past.
What true love is,.. when you can be yourself around that person. The person you love the most, must not only be the one you love, but your friend. One whom you can talk to... in sickness and in health. Until death do you part.
I was watching videos/listening to music using Yahoo's Launchcast thingy, the video Graduation by Vitamin C came on, decided to actually watch it, not just listen to it, made me miss all my friends from high school and made me want to give them one last hug. For most graduates of 2003 reading this, I miss you guys, we need to have a one year reunion! Next time I see you remind me to give you a hug and I will (in a non-sexual way). Sorry bout that, just had to add in another senior quote for me... Anyways, enjoy! I miss you all!
I don't put these "quizilla quizzes" thingies into my blog/blurty ever, but this one was fitting to I decided to put it into my post.
You are one of the few out there whose wings are truly ANGELIC. Selfless, powerful, and divine, you are one blessed with a certain cosmic grace. You are unequalled in peacefulness, love, and beauty. As a Being of Light your wings are massive and a soft white or silver. Countless feathers grace them and radiate the light within you for all the world to see. You are a defender, protector, and caretaker. Comforter of the weak and forgiver of the wrong, chances are you are taken advantage of once in awhile, maybe quite often. But your innocence and wisdom sees the good in everyone and so this mistreatment does not make you colder. Merciful to the extreme, you will try to help misguided souls find themselves and peace. However not all Angelics allow themselves to be gotten the better of - the Seraphim for example will be driven to fighting for the sake of Justice and protection of those less powerful. Congratulations - and don't ever change - the world needs more people like you.
Ok, finally got my comments back up. I was running my commenter through Blogspeak, and Blogspeak went out of business and was sold to Haloscan, if anything's different, sorry, deal with it. So now I'm using Haloscan, they transferred my messages (although it appears not all of them show up to most users, but they do to me), so I'm pretty happy for the most part. (If you are reading my Blurty not my Blog, disregard this paragraph).
Ok, things that have happened since December 15th.... Hmmm, a lot happened:
My sister spent Christmas in England with one of her friend's family. It was nice having her gone.
Christmas was, ummm... interesting. I got some pretty neat stuff. Finally got a DVD player (besides the ones on my computers). Our family now has about 10 DVD's, including: Chicago, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, Moulin Rouge, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Shanghai Knights, Spaceballs, and X2: X-Men United. Also got a nice big new CD player for my room, 5-disk, remote, alarm clock, sleep timer, extreme treble and bass, detached and movable speakers, a lot of fun stuff for a poor boy like myself. I also got a lot of candy, still working on it. Got a few calendars. Got a couple of nifty toys. Got a sweater and a manicure set from my aunts and uncles (I'm convinced they think I'm gay). Also got a watch and some boxers. Kinda got a new tire, replacing it came out of my Christmas presents. Got a new mouse pad and compressed air too. Got some cologne from Manda, think she's trying to tell me I stink... Haha, just kidding. Got lottery tickets from her mom, won $11.00. My mom made me spend that on buying more lottery tickets, I bought $11.00 worth of tickets... Won $1.00. Manda's mom bought me and Manda a $35.00 gift certificate thing to Olive Garden. Ok, now on to the not so great part. Our family were all at my grandma's house and my Uncle Rodger was running late (like always). He's never later than 2 hours, also considering after one hour of waiting we left a message on his voice mail. We called him again, still no answer. Two of my other uncles decided to stop by his house to see what's up. The found him dead, he had a heart attack earlier that day while wrapping presents. Experienced my first funeral and procession and everything. Not too fun. Saw some of my uncles crying, never thought I would see that. At the funeral I sat in the third row, behind his ex-wife and my uncle that was crying the most. The funeral probably wouldn't of been that bad if I didn't sit directly behind them. I later found out that this ex-wife was planning on leaving her current husband to pursue my uncle again. She didn't tell anyone until after the funeral. He didn't even know. I did get to see my aunt and uncle from Arizona though, they stayed here until January 2nd or 3rd (when Kate got back).
On New Year's Eve/Day I went over to Manda's house. Taylor was there when I got there, and I'm still wondering what shrimp's shell tastes like, should ask her. After we ate, Taylor left and then we started watching Lord of the Rings (since she's never seen it until then).
January 2nd Manda and I celebrated 6 months. Yay! We went to Olive Garden to spend our gift card from her mom. I left the card in the envelope thing, she thought I grabbed it, I had a gut feeling to grab some money, feeling was right.
Started School again on January 7th. Have history with Kathy Tosa from 9:05-10:00. Signed up not knowing anyone in the class. Ended up knowing most of the people in there. People that went to Montague and are in the class are: Dustin Walters, Sean Wedberg, Christine Horn, Meghan Westra, and Katie Grinwis. I know Ester Yoder through her brother, Gabe. I played soccer with him. I know Samantha Jo Buist and David Arnouts from my psychology class last semester, Paul Garzelloni from my weigh lifting class, and Chris Sikkenga from my sister's plays. Kinda know Kristin Kartes from Whitehall, not real well though, more like an acquaints. Philosophy I knew I was going to have Phil Drake in my class. In that class I also know Chris Briggs from my English class, someone I played teeball with, Ricky Proctor, and a twin of someone I met. Glad I didn't say anything to her, would of made an ass out of myself. I didn't know anyone going into my English class. I ended up knowing Earl Cabala with whom I played soccer with, Chris Briggs (again) and Nick Tejema from my English class. Nick was also in my psychology class. Also in my class is Karie Stark (graduated a year before me) and the older Winters brother.... Travis? No, that's the younger one... Oh well. The one that's not the father of Jill's baby. There's one other person, but I can't remember. In my bowling class is Dave Luzzater, Sarah Fekken, Katie Briggs, and Phil Drake as planned, also in my class is Stephanie Botbuile (not sure on the spelling). Only kind of know her. Not too well. Someone that was in my English class (Can't remember his name, something weird) is also in my class. I think it's going to be a fun year.
Got sucked into going to a few of the pep band basketball games. Gone to three so far. They're not playing Wipe Out anymore, but they're playing Zoot Suit Riot and one other new one, it's late, I can't remember. Well it's 12:16 now, I guess I should go to bed. If I think of anything to add I'll put it in a comment or something. Hold on Rachel, I'll put this into my blurty later. But I will do it.
