More updates :) Visions has a new screenshot available. It's one of my linux desktop.
It's Academic was weird today. I kept getting answers wrong! Not just wrong.. just slightly off. I mean one time, I said "Madonna of the Rocks" when it was "Virgin of the Rocks". Another time I said "Gifts of the Magi" when it was "Gift of the Magi".. and then ANOTHER time I said "Dominique Wilson" when it was "Dominique Wilkins".. sheesh.
And AP Euro. grr. I had projects. So tired of it.

oh.. and one of my friends called me a "hopeless romantic" today. *boggle* am not! and i'm also not a "romantic at heart"! not! not! not!
massive massive update. well, sort of. first, the underlying structure of the website is changed. before, i had used various javascripting to push the right bottom frame to the new page. now i just use nested frames. easier :P Also, the Thoughts section has a new piece. So on the heels of "Ode to Blue" comes a little thing ive been working on, Tale of Two Thieves Chapter 1. Next, we have an updated About section. Like it says, if youve got more questions to add, then tell me. Lastly, the Tendrils aka Links section has also been updated. If I missed anyone, you know how to tell me.
*whew* That was A LOT of linking.
And.. Angela, I'm not senile! *flails the cane around* And it's not Mr.Bob! If I had a cane.. it would be like.. uh.. The Wooden Interdimensional Super Terrifying Extremely-scary Destroyer or something. TWISTED for short ;)

Rooby says "Ode to Blue" sounds like Beowulf. Well.. i guess it could. i dunno. it was one frantic 10 minutes worth of work. And.. a lot shorter than I evisioned :)
Well.. thats because i got tired of writing in iambic pentameter. Did you know that for almost an hour after I wrote the poem, I kept SPEAKING in iambic pentameter?.. It was weird! And everything I read, came out in iambic pentameter. so.. let's see if i can keep speaking in it ;)
Today was fairly good and let me catch
my sleep and for once I got enough rest.
I did all my homework today..damn it
iambic pentameter is so hard,
so I will stop using it starting now.
There :P ...five whole lines of it. *whew* harder than I thought.

ok. so i work faster than i thought. in a fit of absolute boredom, i finished the poem. "Ode to Blue" is now finished!
Try not to laugh too hard when reading it. I know it isnt that good. 'Cause I suck at poetry :)

i'm working on a poem entitled "Ode to Blue". those of you who read David Eddings may remember that the poem played a rather funny role in the Tamuli (i think. it couldve been the Elenium). And yes, I'm gonna write it in the same format. Heroic couplets.
I know its not exactly an "Original Idea". But then, Eddings never did actually write the entire thing out in the series. And I'm not basing any actualy part of the poem on the snippets given, im just using the name and the poetic structure.
So when will this thing see the light of day?.. dunno. sometime next week maybe. possibly earlier if im bored, or later if i have other stuff to do.

coolcool thing happened in It's Academic today.. there was a question.. on my last name! *hop*
"The longest lasting Chinese dynasty -" *bzzzz* i buzzed, grinned, and said "my last name... Zhou..." everyone broke up laughing. ok. so it might not seem that impressive. but i swear, it was funny as heck when it happened.
And.. i got a 10/10 on the physics quiz! without knowing a single solitary thing about the photoelectric effect! Don't ask how i did it.. 'cause i dont know :P I put random values together.. planck's constant there.. the theta thingy here.. the speed of light and the charge of the electron there... complete guesswork ;) But i got it! *hop*
Yes. I'm in a hopping mood. Im not letting that girl at dartmouth (heh.. im not even using her name anymore :P) get me down. i knew it wasnt gonna be anything anyways.

And why is the Publish button STILL disappearing randomly? ...DAMN YOU BLOGGER!.. give me a working publish button!
Yup. *sigh* its official. i have officially broken off contact with a girl i met during the summer at work in 1999. 'twasn't meant to be i guess.. or something. she _was_ older.. going off to Dartmouth while i was still a sophomore->junior. we went out several times.. the summer ended, and we havent really gone out again. we've been talking over email on and off for the past year.. and today, i sent out my final email (with mutual agreement). She has her life, and i have mine. neither of which needs to overlap.
Why am i even writing this?.. Don't have a clue. Call it a sick tribute if you want...
To you Ilona Seneid Lorincz!..
And may you leech off life for all it's worth.

I was looking through some old papers from 9th grade sunday.. aiya did i suck at writing...
"Russian ballet was predominantly performed in Russia." *boggle* what the hell was I thinking?..
Ruby made me a mini-shrine!.. sort of..if blue hello kitty counts :P.. Take a look. And.. uh.. I swear I don't know what the hello kitty fetish she's talking about is :P..

i just came back from a chinese dinner/party/something thingy. well, not really _just_.. i had to feed the neighbors rabbits first. but anyways, there was this crazy girl there (two including May, but she doesn't count). That 9 year old crazy girl is among the _most_ energetic people Ive seen!.. Why.. with that much energy, i could actually do my homework ahead of time! *boggle* wow..

Just remembered an intersting discussion in AP Euro on friday. The topic was Romanticism. And an Age of Prose vs. an Age of Poetry. Good points were made about the 60s as the last great Age of Poetry in the 20th century.
I brought up that another Age of Poetry is creeping up upon us. Not in the usual sense. This Age won't be seen in books, or literature. This is the Poetry seen in science fiction, in Star Trek and Star Wars, and in the sub-culture that include hackers, geeks and computer gurus.
The Poetry seen in the 18th and 19th centuries were mostly seen in literature. From the writings of the Brontes to the heroic couplets of Paradise Lost, the Poetry was obviously evident. The coming Age will not contain such signs. The subtle Romanticism seen in Star Trek, with the Primary Directive, and Star Wars with its Jedi Knights, are hints of another Age of Poetry. Beyond the romantic ideals of Science Fiction, there is the sub-culture of hackers and geeks...
...and my fingers are getting tired. And I'm hungry. So.. that little uh.. not exactly a rant.. nor is it a random thought.. a rambling! That little piece of rambling will have to end there.
And I am not a glitter boy, Angela!

i take back everything ive ever said against Takiweb. The nice and kind sys admins made an exception for me!.. i got my email address back! Thank you Takiweb!
hehe. Angela may not agree.. but yeah!.. mom! *ducks broomstick*
anyways.. today was a good day. physics is confusing! we're doing quantum theory right now.. and its all i can do to stay awake during the talks on planck and company. sheesh!.. i thought itd be more exciting.. maybe that comes later.
May's site is down. And apparently her blog. *mutter* that's one less blog i get to read. *sigh*.. hurry up and get back here!
We have spirit week coming up. And.. we have an _Abercrombie Day_. Which is ludicrous. since every other person wears abercrombie every other day anyways. *boggle* its as stupid as our "WED-NEZ-DAY", which according to the people ive talked to means "a day meant to confuse the students and see what they think it is and what they wear". right. so in other words, you guys ran out of ideas. sheesh.

*boggle* anyone know why it seems like Blogger randomly gives and takes away the Publish button?...
in a sad note, one of the ESOL buses from Whitman had an accident this morning. fortunately no student was seriously hurt. there have been rumors of the deaths of one or even both of the drivers however.. im not sure if i should believe that though. but most people seem to think that it was the bus driver who was at fault..
i dunno though.
i dunno though.
yeah, im using blogger right now. im too lazy to reconfigure openjournal again. *second semester senior aura* oh well.
today was valentines day. 'twas sorta cool. i got some chocolates! :).. and some kisses. er.. thats chocolate kisses.
a funny thing occurred in physics. well, actually several funny things.
Mr. Logan: "Ok people, stop talking."
*class continues talking*
Mr. Logan: "Stop talking, or I'll give you a quiz on your reading tomorrow right now!"
*class looks perplexed*
...yeah. this was funnier at the moment. ah well..
