blog | blog_5_2 | Progress into the depths of the store is slow, cautious: a nervous, furtive animal searching unfamiliar territory. Past banks of CDs - beneath garish displays - through crowds of kids - then, finally, down a specific aisle, side-to-side flicker of attention, eyes darting across dust jackets and labels. A gutterpunk - two-hundred dollar boots, shaved head, pockets full of spare change - starts to slip a CD under his jacket while Enid's back is turned. With the same sixth sense granted to teachers that allows them to decipher just who threw tha spitball, the yellow-haired girl turns around and tell him, "You're _so_ gonna put that back, 'cus I'm not gonna buy it back off of you when you bring it by next week." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Looking around slowly, a wry smile touches his features. "Nothing that I would imagine that I would listen to." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Enid has arrived. From afar, Hiro tries to get you to your feet and against the wall, so you're not all sprawled out in the dust. Then books inexplicably. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Suliman rolls 4 (4 dice) at a difficulty of 8: 2 7 (10) -1- Achieving 0 successes, resulting in a failure Cornelius rolls 4 (4 dice) at a difficulty of 6: 5 2 2 2 Achieving 0 successes, resulting in a failure The demon's mouth closes on Suli's hand and he growls, roars and drops the detonators to grab the closing jaw and hold it up. "Help!" he hisses. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Daisy, raver. Compton patpats Penny on the back, looking like an Uncle afraid of getting caught on camera with his neice, "Rose Motel's cheaper" he replys. Jesse says, in Enochian, "Nip had a weird *********. |
blog | blog_5_2 | A faint whine comes from the speaker, must be really bad reception from the otherside. Slowly your hair begins to stand on end. |
blog | blog_5_2 | You step back onto the ferry terminal as the boat comes to a stop. You walk back out to the street. You walk west along Queens Quay to York. You walk north along Yonge to Front. |
blog | blog_5_2 | All that Pobble can say is, "You're a cop?" incredulously while looking at Eri. "I guess Park Rangers really get some whacky gear in case of emergency.." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Put some meat on those bones... no wonder you're cold--wait, now I'm beginning to sound like... nevermind." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Pause. There is something wrong with the kid - he's on drugs, or psychotic, or far too sensitive a soul to be visiting the horror section of a wax museum. "...think I..." |
blog | blog_5_2 | The anger bleeds away in to the psycho-scary seriousness that is always more scary than the wild maniac. Something about his tone makes you believe he'll do it too. "Ahh..." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Rusty turns his head to the side and starts scratching at his cheek. The light snowfall becomes a storm. |
blog | blog_5_2 | burned up. A ritual of some dark purpose... I don't know. But I'm so scared. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Ridiculously high seeming, as if they extended far beyond human vision, in to the pitch depths up above. Something may be lurking up there, even now. |
blog | blog_5_2 | That little rodent stare gets even wider as he notices that is indeed not a wolf.. but a cat. He doesn't stick around for much longer, running back the way he came and slipping out under the door. OOC) Clipped Ear heads out. |
blog | blog_5_2 | "I tried looking into the waxworks, but it'll take a little more effort." The Blue Haired Yeti man is sat upon a log, staring at Anastasia quite intently as he speaks, oblivious to any folk along the path. |
blog | blog_5_2 | "I sort of... sort of.." She chews on her lip for a moment, "Wrecked my car." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Anastasia folds her hands before her waist and starts to speak softly to Morgan, looking back over to her table. Morgan arches a brow, then whispers back to Anastasia. Anastasia answers to Morgan, flatly, "No. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Though unimposing, he shows no sign of being intimidated by his counterpart. On the contrary. He pulls one of the cracker he pocketed, offering it up between long nicotine stained fingernails. "You wan' a cracker, man?" |
blog | blog_5_2 | He sways a little unsteadily, sniffs a few times and shrugs. Pupils that were wide to begin with look about the room intently, as if an earlier ingestion of chemicals had found its mark and he chuckles quietly to himsef, offering a finger waggle to the other table. Anastasia reaches for her satchel and then, with her free hand, tugs at Pobble's coat. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Its all so wonderfully nonchalant that she even catches the smile of some annonymous, flirtations busy-body on his way to a train. She returns it just in brief and continues. [OOC] Penny says "He rolled for it. |
blog | blog_5_2 | "Shoulda parked closer." This room is not particularly large. Just an entrance room, really. Heavy black curtains hang over the windows in front, shutting out almost all of the ambient light from the world beyond. |
blog | blog_5_2 | She flings her hands at her sides, and now The Rage (tm) is starting to well up, though it's got a wyld chaotic fling about it, like a live wire dancing on wet pavement. "I give you truth and you stab me in the back! And they call Eiluneds treacherous!" Suddenly, she looks at her hands she just flung and becomes /intensely/ interested in them, The Rage (tm) subsiding almost as quickly as it came. |
blog | blog_5_2 | "Doctor Steve," Eri echoes as she looks to the blue-haired man in the white coat, her words broken by an unintentional, good natured laugh. Then, more seriously, "Well, I'm glad to know we have more allies..." As her words drift off, she peers at Anastasia, hard, and then smirks faintly. "You've been working with the prodigals on this problem, haven't you? |
blog | blog_5_2 | "Hi, I'm Jon Sickert." He keeps watching Penny even as he brings his hand back, "Red soda, booze, fuck man, she's on something. And I don't think it's friggin' Jesus." |
blog | blog_5_2 | Upon getting close enough, Alyx interjects mildly, "Maybe without Dave, I could actually get some sense out of Dr Steve." A bright, almost saccharine smile is offered towards Epnny and Jesse, before she asides to Daisy, "S'up?" Jesse has/had a bloody nose, y'see. |
blog | blog_5_2 | that one.'. Quiet pages: How did you wanna talk to her? From afar, Quiet shakes you. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Daisy is late to work, late to class, late to bloom, late to bed and, likewise, late to rise. She is, apparently, here to pick someone up, but is rather late to that as well. About a block south of here, travelling at a bouncing jog, she's coming up the street, looking frantically about for something or another. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Eyes that are suggestive of some kind of drug induced haze channel surf, flicking between the pair and the static fuzz of no-person somewhere between them which is only visible to the befurred man. An approximation of outrage crawls onto his features, but it's definately a half-arsed effort by the muscles. The desired look is missed, and the expression that shows up in it's place is more like.. |
blog | blog_5_2 | An empty coffee mug sits before him and he seems to be too absorbed with his conversing to notice a new arrival. Morgan sits with Nathan and Lily, drinking and conversing quietly. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Mleh. Hey, you got an extra cigarette? Can I have one of those?" |
blog | blog_5_2 | , he clarifies. As the older man settles, Thomas attention seems to settle as well, back completely on the kid sittion opposite of him. Rusty goes through eight pieces of chicken at a frightening rate and he's talking quickly. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Her distaste for the man is evident, though, despite her emotionless tone. Now, for those who know Ana - her cursing like that - that's just unheard of. Jaws may now commence dropping. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Compton says as a form of personal computer mantra and opens Pine, to view the message of the end of a quest. Congratulations Buyer! We appreciate your prompt payment for Item #19390712348723, Jesse James Revolver for the price of $8,000US. |
blog | blog_5_2 | Heavy black curtains hang over the windows in front, shutting out almost all of the ambient light from the world beyond. The room is lit only by real candles and gas lamps. The air carries an old, almost must scent to it, giving you the sense of walking in to a building centuries old, even though it is a relatively new rennovation. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Waking up was REALLY difficult today. But I managed....and still got to school early so I'm ok =P. History class we are going more "in depth" into WWII. |
blog | blog_5_3 | 100%! I was surprised, but not complaining lol. But yeah Mr. Curphey's now on crutches, hobbling around the classroom and still teaching us like his usual self. |
blog | blog_5_3 | After lunch.....afternoon went sorta like this: Bio class: note-taking + tirendess makes Joe tired. Not many jokes today or anything....pretty below-average class. We did some note taking. Oh yeah and I took down a whole note....AND THEN FIND THE HANDOUT AFTERWARDS IN MY BINDER. |
blog | blog_5_3 | CCH 3. Not being in competition badminton for a year.....I felt kinda shaky. But as we rallied, and then got into our game face.....the game blew by pretty quickly. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Kinda cool though that someone's actually heard of my piano playing. Interesting too I guess....how it's in my school. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Now I go watch some Avalanche game....and then head to sleep. Got Senior band tomorrow. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Can't wait. My monitor right now....7 years old....and probably produces more radiation than a Nuclear Power Plant. So now all i have to do is withstand this monitor for another week and WHOO! NO MORE RADIATION! |
blog | blog_5_3 | Then: BF1942. Jason would join in this too...and we played mostly holdout maps *D-Day* and urban fights *Stalingrad and Berlin.* It's kinda cool though how realistic programming has got over the years.....I still remember back when......well Doom was 2D lol. |
blog | blog_5_3 | No blog right now even comes close to matching my Huntsville one. Well....I know for a fact TC 2004 will match it=P. Or even exceed it. |
blog | blog_5_3 | We got an extra day to work on our project....and I kinda missed guidance cuz of it =P. Lol it was funny though. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Programming.....a clock fell on Cam, Icy got the blame, in the end no one got the blame. So we then worked on Turing, I for one got pretty bored and started surfing the net. Was pretty much done anyways. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Mostly all we did today was listen to our performance on Thursday......which was pretty bad. That was Communism day....and it sucked. No worries though I'm not complaining THAT much about it....since I guess we're lucky we didn't get Bronze. |
blog | blog_5_3 | OOOOOOOOH yes...sweet sweet luxury of no school =)....or very little. Well after dumping most of my junk in my locker, I preceded heading to first period: Music Class. |
blog | blog_5_3 | First time in my badminton career at least....and IT HURTS. Just knowing the fact that every serving attempt you had was wiped out by an onslaught of smashes, and you can't do anything about it since me and John only clear for smash reception.....yeah we lost pretty bad....and were pretty peeved cuz of it. 2nd game though, we did what no other team before us did..... |
blog | blog_5_3 | So talked to some other people on the bus.....and looked around the Kiwanis program for events that people I know are playing at. Didn't really see much except for some younger kids that go to my church. Two of them apparently have a duet, which I think is pretty cool. So when we arrive at Saunders....kinda funny how first 3 people I see are Anton, Jonny and Tyler. |
blog | blog_5_3 | It's an idea....I guess. I mean....now I have three fields I could enter: Business, Law, and Sciences. Bah but I wanted something with psychology. It's actually becoming kinda interesting....the whole neurology thing/psychology thing.....pretty cool stuff. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Although I lost, but I made some would-have-been decent doubles shots. Final score: 15-12 or something like that. We whooped some UWO ass though when we played doubles. |
blog | blog_5_3 | If she was disqualified I WOULDA GOT 2ND! TWO 2ND PLACES IS GOOD! BUT NOOOOO.........STUPID ADJUDICATOR DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO DISQUALIFY! GRRRRRR! |
blog | blog_5_3 | But the upside: Calvin can never deny his somewhat often occuring stupidity ever again =P. This is going to haunt him for a while....and as Gavin says: "You are now officially out of the movie watchers club. The club: everyone else." Jokes jokes Calvin....but honestly smarten up at times lol. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Also chatted with the few people I knew there *NO ONE FROM THEORY 3 WHY!?* so managed to talk with Jaclyn and Lindsay while there lol. Though I'm mostly totally out of the bubble they have, there were a few things we could relate to. Normally I don't really see 'em much at school....hmm I think mainly because I guess I chill w/ different people? |
blog | blog_5_3 | Like usual I woke up at 6, did usual morning routine....and jumped out the door around 6:45 or so. I got there think 5 minutes late. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Well after eating...we headed downstairs to watch my newly bought movie....KILL BILL *again.* I've seen it 3 times already in two days....and the 3rd time watching it today was no different. I'm still somehow amused by the movie... So yeah pretty much everyone thought was pretty good movie. |
blog | blog_5_3 | WHY MUST WE BE #1?! Ergh first competitor in both events today lol. Originally we were 2nd or third but we had to bump ourselves up as someone had to leave early. Wasn't too bad though....we got to have a quick run through of piece being up there. |
blog | blog_5_3 | OH YEAH I REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED NOW! I woke up......and then Patrick called and said he's not going to school today. Well since I didn't have to worry about giving him a lift to school......I was kinda tired too....soo........Hmm I was tempted to stay at home today. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Now I won't ruin much about the movie....but some parts are hilarious even though it is an action movie. Also....anime part in the movie is crazy. If GOOD anime is like that, yeah I gotta pick up a few anime DVD's. Also just the beginning starting like an old Chinese Kung-Fu flick....really funny but cool. |
blog | blog_5_3 | And coaching did nothing since Ms. Bates seems to only state the obvious. Gah why couldn't our student coaches be here they actually PLAY badminton. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Hmm.....not much else happened....oh yeah Meaghan stuck to her Wednesday Track Suit thing....she seems to always wear it on a Wednesday like she said lol. Well now I'm off to rant about music class..... |
blog | blog_5_3 | Like usual......much typing.....and trying to crunch the many Syntax errors within my program down. Eventually with the help of Mr. Dayus I solved the problems.....and now we are onto a project where we have to animate a whole animation thing. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Basically it's a conference where you get to attend lectures about issues of today. *Shrug* I guess can't be that bad. I heard actually from people who went last year it's pretty fun. Something to look forward to I guess hehe. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Now science was boring like usual......did lots of notes.......Well keep scrolling down to the next part nothing to write about here.... Now we are into lunch. It was Ally's B-day *Happy B-day Ally!* and so we went to Jasper's Cafe.... |
blog | blog_5_3 | Oh yeah then this happens: Finlan tells me he's movin' to my area. Whoo. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Thompson had shitty pancakes from International Soups today, and Nate and Mike had BK and Subway. Mike left early for some reason, but after he left me Thompson and Nate started talking about starting a playoff pool for NHL. And then we left for school. Math class........it was usual. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Their pizza's back up in tip top shape compared to before. Might go there more often now =P. Oh yeah Starbucks opened too today according to Natalie....wanna go there and give it a try. |
blog | blog_5_3 | WE MANAGED TO PUT OURSELVES ON THE BOARD! YES! 3 POINTS! THOUGH IT WAS A HUMILIATING 11-3 LOSS......BUT WE ARE NOW KNOWN AS THE ONLY TEAM TO HAVE SCORED 3 POINTS ON THEM! |
blog | blog_5_3 | The aroma of BBQ sauce dripping into the fire, the sizzling of the steak being BBQ'd and all....yeeeeah it was a good aroma lol. So falling into the temptation *OH NO.....TEMPTATION* I quickly ran downstairs, grabbed a plate, rice, and quickly ran out to the wood deck to grab a piece of steak. Yeah savouring the previews to this afternoon's BBQ day for my English Service....mmmmmmmm good steak ^_^. So after eating that steak.....headed out the door for my usual Saturday piano lesson. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Yeah boring huh? Yes very. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So got home....quickly grabbed a sandwich to eat...then headed out for the park... No breakin' tonite....just workin' out w/ Marcello and Dan and then some ball on my own since no one seems to be at UWO now since everyone's GONE. So did some cardio...weights *my arms are useless right now literally* and then balled. |
blog | blog_5_3 | And long-time-no-updaters are Jason, Gavin and Josh. Like I said though I'm not gonna like YELL at them or anything....these weeks have been tough.....and I've been averaging only 6 hours of sleep a night. |
blog | blog_5_3 | It was REALLY BORING though. I slept through most of class.....and most of science class too. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So decided to take long way there instead of waiting for Dundas bus *patience right there* and took Cherryhill w/ Dan and Elaina, then transfered onto Wonderland. Got to UCC around.....330ish? Badminton today was decent I guess. Didn't really see anyone I knew....so played a few pickup games with some random people. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Basically planned out HYPE for May and June....mostly Kendrick and Wendy will handle it *with Theresa "guest-starring" a few times* and also we talked a lot about the three kids comin' in from Sunday School group in September. Also a few pondered about whether we will have new counselors next year. Hmm...so far our summer seems pretty relaxed compared to school year HYPE....and yeah we'll be packing lots of fun nights and stuff lol....mostly because well....IT'S SUMMER! |
blog | blog_5_3 | Meh oh well.....at least Thursday the Avs are back in the game. Finally I can watch a good team play. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Oh well I still have until late April to figure it out....so yeah...this is gonna be one huge prayer request...just for God to help me organize out my future for me....for those praying people out there. Yeah so that was basically the whole guidance appointment......50 minutes of talking aboutwhat I wanna do with my life. The bottom line: Keep my horizon broad. |
blog | blog_5_3 | AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *wump.* Lunch: Went to Subway...........overpriced to the max. spent $8.25 on some stupid sub and a can of Pepsi. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Though I wasted one hour doing something I didn't have to do.......at least I have more time to study now =). Apparently Ms. Manson was at a track meet......so Mr. Campbell came into teach us today. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Plus........apparently THERE IS SOMETHING LOWER THAN APPLIED MATH! It leads to really retarded math through the future....but I was surprised there was something lower than applied lol. Band went through a quick runthrough....then GAME TIME! |
blog | blog_5_3 | Bio Class.......BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG. Another presentation.......well actually this one was kinda amusing.....they were talking about narcotics lol. But even if I wanted to nap I wouldn't have been able to. Holy crap Adam Ozvald sniffles once every 5 seconds....for his presentation he'd sound like this: "Nicotine *sniff* is a form of depre*sniff*ssant.*sniff*It acts as a *sniff* depressant as it *sniff* causes *sniff* you to not *sniff sniff* have as *sniff* great of *sniff* senses *sniff sniff sniff* as usual"....*SNORT* So yeah even if I tried to sleep......I woulda been woken up by the constant sniffling. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Went to a place I haven't been to in........LOOOOONG TIME. William's=P. |
blog | blog_5_3 | And then we headed upstairs....where umm a guest person was doing Praise & Worship. Originally I think Gavin was asked by Pastor Dale....but this weeks been REAL busy for many of us. With dinner, farewell for some HYPE members and for me Kiwanis and Badminton....life's been pretty hectic lol. But worship was still good....and today in the message we now have completed studying Phillipians. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Wharton comes back. Thank goodness. I'm sick and tired of this dude's moodswings. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Yeah I'm really tired by now....but I wouldn't sleep as when I got home..... I ate food. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So getting that by, me Nate and Mike ended up going to Stobie's today; a place I haven't been to since last November.....don't remember why...thought it was expensive back then. But seeing my spending habits now...it's a bargain for the quality food I get there. |
blog | blog_5_3 | True blessing from Christ =). Then after Lucas played, watched the other schools still. They mostly sucked. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Math: Trigonometry. Not much more to say about that, except Jenn is suffering in Toronto w/ Quadratics while I'm FINALLY out of that pif of crappage and into easier stuff that I really don't like....TRIG! |
blog | blog_5_3 | Oh yeah English exam postponed because of Badminton and other various activities =P. Shweet....now the exam's on the week that WOSAA's on. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Later. |
blog | blog_5_3 | I'm actually getting BETTER and stuff.....so yeah I can actually sometimes compete against some university students lol. My smash receiving is pretty much the best @ church at the moment, plus out of the people I know. So played a few games.....and saw another dude from Central team there Steve Zhao. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Well hope for the best...the best being not Joe Failing. Chinese failing is still lingering on the horizon. After music class.....which proved that Saxophones may need some practice on their instruments came the trudge up the stairs to Science Class.....where I fell asleep for half of it. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So many jokes made tonight though lol. Too many to explain. One being Gavin's "HEY MY CRAZY FRIES AREN'T CRAZY" and Kendrick replying "THEY LOOK QUITE SANE TO ME!" Fries with mental personalities........wow.....how do we come about with these things? |
blog | blog_5_3 | Music seems to come pretty easy especially though. So not much school today...mostly consisted of playing piano, trombone, and then going home for naps =). So yeah.......pretty easy day for me......ergh Thursday's gonna be hell though intermediate band from 3-9 lol. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So yeah that is where it leaves me at....... HOME! So today had it's ups and downs. |
blog | blog_5_3 | So I quickly rush upstairs....but it was over. Turns out she just needed to know the conflicts that badminton conference will have. For me: virtually none =P. |
blog | blog_5_3 | After some nervous playing....and fumbling with the trombone slide....I FINALLY SEE GOLD AT KIWANIS WITH SENIOR BAND! Now at first....I was kinda expecting a silver since we had the same communist-like adjudicators as when Intermediate band played....but once we heard Lucas got Gold....I started thinking "YES WE HAVE A CHANCE!" And we did =). |
blog | blog_5_3 | well now the bell's rang by now....talked to some people......set tomorrow for studying @ Jason's house.....and while I'm at it play NFL street....wanna see what the game's like. I actually talked for a while, then I ended up running out the door when I was stopped by Steph Bourdage. |
blog | blog_5_3 | Well at first we sounded good......but then we started playing scales. We sounded like....*shudder.* It was the worst....and I think he was bulding up momentum to his PMS state.....because after we started playing another song.....and Connor and Arjun entered at the wrong bar......he was like PMSing. "Releasing his Tiger" according to Mr. McCumber. |
