Welp... I beat Fable again. Kept the Sword of Aeons... killed my sister... *drumming fingers together*... Eeeexcellent. Time to rule the world. My shadow stretches long across the land... mwahahahhahahaaaa. Have to wait till the end of the credits I guess then supposedly I'll be able to keep playing with my cool new toy of world domination. It's going to be ridiculous... oh man oh man. Being evil never paid off so much! I spent the rest of the game being fairly decent up until my point of ultimate evil... so I personally think I'll be able to make up for this naughty little deed, and the thing with my sister, and in time the people will come to respect me again. That or they die... the choice is theirs. Time for a second one to come out already!

Took the get-into-Calculus test for a second time... got the same non-passing score I got on the first round. Way to go, me! Sooo since I didn't have that four credit class, I had to sign up for two three credit classes. Sometimes I think college is very stupid. Oh well... just four more years to go!
Here's my wicked awesome schedule. I still somehow managed to only have to go down to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays... so I guess I'm cool wit it.

Are spiders vengeful? If I try to kill one, and fail, will it remember, and vow to kill me first? Will it warn all of its spider friends until there is an Anti-Sarah Coalition formed? Gotta wonder.
The latest and maybe-not-so-greatest invention idea from my workshop of Useful and Practical Invention Ideas of Seriously Questionable Quality (the UPIISQQ or "oopy-sk"). The before picture depicts how bottles are now for many household products. When the fluid inside runs low, you're screwed. With my new and improved bottle, the fluid is always channelled to the center, ensuring maximum fluid usage with minimum effort. Is that not the worst bottle drawing you've ever seen? Thank you... thank you... I'll be signing autographs later behind the Burger King on 104th.

Had an okay first day of school. Found out I need to show up at 8:30 in the morning for the other half of my chem class I somehow didn't realize I needed to attend. So that kind of shoots down my "awesome schedule". Oopsy. Guess I'll be making two trips to school every Tues and Thurs. That's not so economical any more. Boo. Oh well... not much I can do about that. On the upside though... all my classes so far seem pretty cool. I didn't pass the test to get into Calculus... got a 72 when I needed an 80. Going to study more and try again tomorrow- and in case I don't pass it then I have to find some other class I can take real quick-like online. Yeeeup. Can't say I'd mind taking a semester off from math, sadly I'm sure I'd just forget a lot of stuff and it'd suck more later.
I'm on my second run of Fable... don't know if I've mentioned that. Playing as a good guy... -that makes occassional evil decisions. The first time I played it through I always spared people when I had the option to kill them, I always helped people rather than hurt them. This time around I'm good... except for a few slipups like constant stealing, a sacrifice to Skorm to get the best bow in the game, and killing Whisper for 10,000 gold. If she didn't want me to kill her I guess she should've given me a better offer. Anyhow. Yes... I plan at the end of the game to get the Sword of Aeons and dominate the world with my evil unstoppable powers. Because that's just cool, and I wish I would've done it the first time. I may write a "thing" for Fable... like a guide, but not a really thorough guide. Then again I may not. I mention it so I'll remember that I WANTED to... which is all that actually matters in the grand scheme of things. I wanted to play through as an evil guy this time, but I'm having a hard time reconciling that with my conscience. Even though it's just a game... people are so sad when you kill them and break their stuff and be evil and junk. I just hate having people be mean to me! Maybe on the third time through I'll be able to be fully evil.
Ooh... I'll close with a movie recommendation. I saw Meet the Fockers with the boyfriend... it was great... hilarious. Funnier than Meet the Parents. I give it my highest comedy-genre accolades. Focker out.

I'm supposed to be studying for this test I have to take to get into Calc I. Of course every time I'm supposed to be studying for math I think, "Hey, haven't updated NNN in a while! Better get on that!". So let's see. I start school Tuesday. My schedule's going to be pretty awesome. I'm taking two classes that will only be on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and then my Calc class (uhh, assuming I pass the test eventually) is online, so I only have to go down to school two days a week. That's awesome.
Of course I work on the days I don't go down to school, but I like the idea of not mixing the two in a 24-hour period. Almost like leading two lives. There's work-Sarah, that gets up early Monday morning and works-works-works like a normal non-college-attending human adult. But then work-Sarah gets knocked out and drug off into some dark corner for a day, and school-Sarah gets to come out and play. School Sarah gets to sleep in a little, work on homework, and then stroll off to school in the afternoon with thoughts of work being the furthest from her mind. Her only great concerns will be with grades, homework, and tests. She gets home... does some homework... goes to bed, only to be replaced by work-Sarah the next morning. I think its interesting anyways. I could really play it all up by dressing completely different on workdays from school days. Except I work at home so no one would know. Anyone that knew both Sarah's would just think I was some schitzophrenic psychopath. There's a cure for schitzophrenia though... the dominant personality just has to kill the other personality, which may or may not be the "true" personality. The true personality always prevails in the end though. I think I saw that in a movie. You can learn a lot of important stuff from movies.
Sooo yeah... that's pretty much all my news. I'm going to pay off my tax debt... sending a check off on Monday. Boy have I ever had that debt for forever. Once that's paid, all the money I earn will actually be money for me, and not the government. I'm psyched about that. I'm going to have two and a half hours to kill between my classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays... the laptop has never looked so appealing. Oh if only they grew on trees. They upped my credit limit on my credit card to $1300... maybe I should go buy a credit laptop! Heh... have I learned nothing?

I've been informed that my guestbook has been hacked. And apparently by German morons.

I knew we never should have trusted the Germans... first that guy Hitler... now this. At first I was thinking, gee, I should follow Mack's advice and update. But then, they'll just hack my updated guestbook, or it'll still get signed by automato-spam web processes over which I have no control, and that'll piss me off. So I decided hey, I don't need a guestbook. What do I care if I have visitors? But then I realized that that would be letting the German terrorists win. And then I remembered I don't care because no one ever signs my guestbook anyways.
So no more guestbook for now. I think I'll make my own, but so ridiculously basic, that there will be nothing to hack. I hate using other people's crap anyways. So look forward to that... I should be done... ohh... by about 2006 I figure, but that's an early guess and those are never right. Mission objective will be to make a guestbook so unique and utterly worthless, it won't attract any of the wrong kind of attention. If I were America... we'd all be trading in all our nice big screens and BMW's for 14" black and whites and VW bugs. Good thing I'm not America, eh! Let the terrorists have their stupid kiddie hacks... I have better stuff to worry about.

I've been keeping pretty busy.
I had a good New Years... here's the one picture I took (well I took another but it didn't turn out very good, which means it was pretty bad compared to this one).

I've been working on my fish tank.


I have plans for beautifying my case soon (for cheap - because I just can't afford that Nikon camera yet). I'm going to get blue round cables and a blue cold cathode light to go in the bottom of my case shortly. Here's a blue-preview. A prev-blue. A blue-view. A pre... oh I already did that one.

I've been organizing like mad... new years cleaning I guess. Threw out 4 trash bags of stuff I didn't need, giving away 4 or 5 bags of stuff I don't need but that someone else might.
My faithful watch of 9 years finally gave out. May she never run out of time again in watch heaven.
I start back up at school in 12 days according to my countdown clock. Chemistry for Engineers, Logic Design, and Calculus if I pass the entrance exam. I've probably already said that somewhere. Anyways, a new semester is always... well... another semester. Only 11-something to go. I think. I should get my actual associates, the paper version, at the end of this month. Hmm. Nothing else to report. Over!
