Filming

I woke up to the sound of Bryan's voice, but I didn't actually get to see him today. He was gone before I knew it. I also fell asleep again. The next time I woke up, it was about 11:00 A.M. So, I showered and ate lunch. After that, I hung with Mikey and Jeremiah for a bit before going to JST. At JST, Varun was filming a short movie for a project. In the movie, I was the "Traitor". A cop that actually kills people too. A funny thing that kept happening was that a cicada video popped up whenever we watched what was recorded. Therefore, Varun decided to name the film "Cicada or something. Filming went on until around 6:30 P.M.

After I got back to my dorms, I ate and hung in Jeremiah's room with Jeremiah and Destiny. I also got about a page of my 10+ paper done. I'll get the rest tomorrow. Other than that, I IM'ed. That's pretty much it. See you later.

Wait.... New manga: Lost+Brain. Initially, it seems like Death Note, but it ends up branching off from it. Here is the info:



Summary

This is the story of a very smart student called Hirama Ren who is used to always getting the top results in his school, and is the chairman of the student's council. One day, he walks past a group of bullies and asks them to leave--and because of that, they decide to teach him a lesson. They decide to beat up a couple of guys and they reported it to the teachers, blaming him.
Hirama becomes enraged by it and and so he decides to attain some power that could allow him to change the world to a world that he wanted...one without such pathetic people..the people who hides from responsibilities, look for shelter from others when in trouble, etc.
Coincidentally, his vice-chairperson called him and asked if he was fine with her inviting a hypnotist for some event at school to hype up the school population. He thought it might be THE ability that he was looking for, so he agreed to it. During the "trial" test of the hypnotist's ability, he set up some plan and later on used it to test if hypnosis was able to hypnotise people who were avoiding it. With his new found knowledge, how will Hirama use this new power to reshape the world?
Wow... That summary was HUGE. Anyway. See you.

Skipped

I feel a bit bad because I skipped 2 of my 3 classes today. Here's a bit of information on classes.

Stats: Skipped due to Byond Madness....

Linguistics: I went to it. Interesting topic. African American Vernacular English. I got here late by a minute or two (Byond Madness). During the class, I didn't speak, but I felt other students sneaking peeks at me because I'm the only one in the class that is black/part black. I ignored it though. When class was over, which ended very quickly, I walked to the door and took a glance at my professor and noticed that he was looking at me. So, I quickly went over and explained my thoughts on the class. He mistakenly thought that he offended me with the topic. It wasn't the case.

Spanish: Byond Madness.... skipped class.

I later learned that I missed an appointment with my English teacher... So, Byond Madness screwed me over.

I went to class as usual. The highlight of this day goes to the night. Tim kept me up until around 3:30 A.M. He wouldn't leave.

Today started my obsession of Byond games. It made me stop blogging for a while. But, that's it.

Hard Day

I skipped Stats and studied for Linguistics. I also studied with Dan from Linguistics. A group of us went to a local restaurant as well.

The actual midterm didn't seem too hard. I actually finished five minutes early. My professor commented and said I finished fast. I was shocked.

I went to JAVCA today. There were games of Ninja, Honey I Love You, and Twister. More awkward positions ensued. Someone takes pictures and Facebooks them...

I even finished homework correctly.

I woke up late, but Mom came and took me to get my haircut. She also got me subway. I studied the rest of the day.

Homework at 1am Friday?

The day went by like all of the other days have. Nothing special.

One thing I want to talk about is Stats. That class is stacking too much work on itself.

Thursday: Homework
Friday: Quiz

What the heck...?

I spent all night on that. Bryan even came in and said "You're doing homework at 1AM on Friday?"

Xbox and Homework

I don't feel like saying too much about this.

I spent the day with classes, then playing Xbox360 with Miguel, and finally Statistics homework.

Concern 2

Why is there Bloodshed?

This post is over a week late, but I WILL do this in order to catch up. Class is what started the day, as usual. There was Stats, Linguistics, and Spanish. In between classes, I studied and did an interview. My English teacher suggested that we interviewed real fans for our final papers. So, I did just that. I looked around on a Marilyn Manson forum board. It didn't take long until I found someone. I used her Myspace to send her a message, which was replied to quickly. She agreed to let me interview her, etc. I gave great questions and she returned the favor with exceptional answers. Great information for my paper, to say the least. Eventually, I had to do an exam for Spanish. It felt easy, as usual. I went to TBH for Bible Study early. It was nice, as usual.

After Bible Study, I went to my room. I called Hayley and decided to go to late night for food, but I accidentally went without her because of Tim.

After that, I went to the bathroom. Too much information, you say? I disagree. After I went back to my room, I noticed that I was locked out of my room... again. I went downstairs and retrieved a spare key, but when I arrived, I saw a bloodied guy in dress clothes, asking for band-aids. No one had any. I felt sorry for him and went back to my room to get my own keys.

When I came back to return the spare key, I say that he was still there. He was telling a girl what happened. Apparently, he was attacked and robbed... He sat on the ground, back to a wall, and appeared to have given up. It took some courage, but I walked up to him, interrupted his conversation and offered to grab my first aid kid for him. I left him take whatever he needed and introduced myself. He gave me his name too, but it was odd and hard to remember. I hope he's alright now.

Seeing his state pretty much upset me for a while, but I got over it. I worked on an annotated bibliography before bed.

A Leg in Between My Legs

Just like the other Mondays, I crawled to class, full of dread. Neither of my two classes were too bad though. After that, I went to lunch only to see a HUGE line. It was ridiculous. I didn't have time to wait in the line, so I did my homework instead. I decided to eat after my last class.

I went to JAVCA today to see what we would play today. First, we broke into groups and played team-coordinated concentration. We won though. Woot! After that, different games were played at once.

Super Smash Brothers was there, but I decided to play Twister. It was VERY interesting. Two of the girls who played wouldn't fall! I even did a good round where I won. At one point... I took a spot from one of the girls, so she had to put her leg through mine to get to the spot. Then, someone took a picture...

After JAVCA, I reached into my pocket for my phone and got chocolate on my hands. It was on my phone too, but fortunately, not my I.D. I washed it off and decided not to use that pocket for the rest of the night. Then, there was dinner and then Resident Evil 5. I had a blast with this game. I played co-op with Jeremiah and didn't pretty well. I also played a bit of Call of Duty with Ri. However, I had to do homework.

I worked on it. About 20 minutes before the due date, I noticed that Mary called some time ago. I called back and found out that I was working on the wrong assignment. Stupid me... I quickly did the correct one and went to bed. I was a bit upset.

Call of Duty: Canceled Adventure

I started this day with hopes of getting a haircut. I woke up, took a shower and hopped on my laptop. I quickly mapped out a route to get to my barbershop. I would pass the Sears Tower (I will NOT call it by its new name), the library Dominic wanted me to meet up with her at, and even a view of the lake. I was ready for my brand new adventure. Then, I walked to the ATM machine to withdraw money: the machine was out of order. I called my mom and told her, thus, my planned adventure was over. While talking to my mom, I got a text from Mikey. He wanted me to make a hot pocket for him again. I did so and stayed in his room. He convinced me to play Call of Duty4 : Modern Warfare. I personally dislike FPS games, but I played and learned a bit more. It was like he was my teacher. I saw Emma at lunch too, but that's pretty much it for today.

Bokurano

Sadly, I spent this day in my room. I started with a bit of homework because no one was around. After homework, I did laundry. I didn't have any problems with getting a washers or dryers, but when I came back to my clothes, they were on the top of the dryer...

I felt lonely today, but I decided to spend time by reading a new manga. This one is called Bokurano. It is about a group of 15 kids that are forced to save the planet by piloting a giant mecha. The only problem is the mecha takes the life force of the user in exchange for its use. Therefore, each kid is destined to die after their battle. This manga deals with the kids' problems with their fate (ranging from fear, what to do for their siblings, what will be done with their bodies, etc). Unfortunately, this was introducded to them as a game and there is NO way to get out of it.

I listened to music when I read this manga and I even began to have a choking feeling when I thought about some stuff. It was serious business...

Fame and Fun

I honestly spend most of the day in my room, but I'll talk with much more detail in this post, since a lot more happened.

So, in the morning, my alarms went off, but I did not want to leave my bed. I did so anyway though. I couldn't resist... Statistics was as empty as it usually is and Mary came in late as usual. I took notes, but nothing much else went on. I did note that the stuff he taught was information that would have been useful earlier! Anyways, I was CONSTANTLY looking at the clock. Yep, rather boring. After class, I went to lunch alone. I ran into Emma though, so she moved to my table. She also proposed the idea of eating at JST for dinner (the fancy place). I agreed and we walked back to our dorms.

I stayed in my room at this point. I stayed there: watched a lot of videos, saw Bryan come and go, worked on my game a small bit, listened to new music, etc.

After hours of that, it was time for Spanish again. I left my room and it was now dark outside. Creepy... I went to Spanish and talked to a guy named George about wanting to leave. He urged me to leave, but I decided not to.

After Spanish, it was nearly time to meet up with Emma and co. for dinner in JST. Most people couldn't be reached, so our group was small. Our group consisted of Emma, Tierra, Fiza, Charles, Elizabeth, and I. We walked to JST and as soon as we entered, we were so lost. The place was huge, and nice. I didn't like the chairs though... Even though there were booths as well. After dinner, the girls tried finding a party that was Indian related...? As we walked back to the dorms, guys clad in Indian gear past. Fiza stopped them and asked where the party was and they told them to follow. Charles and I reluctantly followed until we decided to distance ourselves and then make a break for the dorms (the opposite direction).

Charles and I decided to head for the arcade. We played DDR. Initially, we played alone, but eventually, we had an audience. It was very interesting. I personally do worst with an audience, but it didn't happen this time. They were cheering too. It was very strange. I felt like a celebrity again. Similar to last Saturday with the girls that greeted me as I entered. After playing DDR, my shirt was soaked with sweat (Luckily, it was black). I chcked my cellphone and the girls had been messaging me.  I quickly went back to my room, showered, and went to their room.

They were playing the card game "BS" when I entered, but we eventually played Mafia and two game that I crafted up. After that, all except Emma, Tierra, and I left and the girls began drooling over a guy. That was my queue to leave...

I went to Joe's room and played the Xbox. It started with Call of Duty, which I don't really enjoy. Next was Resident Evil 5, which was really fun. Then, there was Halo 3. The game I HATE! When I actually got to play with Joe, it was awesome! I like it now. Shortly after I started Halo 3, Mikey and Ri arrived. They played while I did homework. Eventually, I went back to my room and chatted a bit. I still am, actually. But, I will be going to bed soon. See you.

Rather Limited

Like NOTHING happened today. I went to class....

In English, my professor said the "N" word, but without the "er"... the "a" one. It was in a plausible context though. Whew... I quickly looked at the African American students in the class to see if they would be upset. They laughed along with the professor (He was talking about a video and the lyrics).

 I got food too.... Homework after... then sleep... I hung in Jeremiah's room for homework though.

I went to bed and as soon as my head hit the pillow, Mary called. I helped her with Stats. Then, back to bed....

Thought

I'm Popular with the Ladies, I'm David

Since it was Tuesday, I woke up later than usual. What's the rush anyway? I didn't have class until 2:00 P.M.  I took a slow, relaxing shower as well. However, I still felt paranoid in there, as usual. I don't know what it is, but I cannot feel as comfortable in the shower as I did at home. After I was finish and in my towel, I left the bathroom with mouthwash in my mouth and a towel around my waist. A female plumber said hi to me as I opened the door. I couldn't say anything though...

After the shower, I threw on clothes and went to the cafe. I ran into Josh and Corey there are decided to eat with them. We talked a bit, but not about too much. Just school and stuff. After lunch, I returned to my room and read a book for my English class.

I decided to go to English class without a coat because it is always SO hot in there. Guess what? We moved to a different room. Something awkward happened during class today. It went something like this. The teacher was talking about the book. He often posed questions to random students, so I usually look down to avoid eye contact because that is the only way he can call on me. He doesn't know my name. Well today went like this:

Jacob (Professor): "David, what do you think?"

At the time, I had my eyes in my book. I wasn't looking at him. But, curiosity got the best of me and I looked up to see who he was talking to. He was staring directly at me. I waited about three seconds, staring him down. After those seconds passed, I asked, "Who me?" When he confirmed, I told him that my name was Brandon, then I answered his question. I talked to him about it later and learned that I looked like the roommate of his friend that was named David.

After class, I quickly took care of my Spanish homework and went to Jeremiah's room. I just talked with Nick and Jeremiah because I had nothing else to do.

Before I knew it, it was time for class again. When I got to class, only three of us were there. We decided to discuss what we did for Halloween. The actual class only consisted of group work and a bit of discussion. I had a problem starving because my stomach was hurting. I was hungry... Fortunately, class ended early. When my teacher mentioned the due date of my final draft,  Therese and I looked at each other because the bad memories of before came back to us.

I went to dinner after. I met a few new people as well. I also saw Sarai there. She was a girl I met on the fourth floor. She also mentioned that I had pretty eyes... even though I think hers are better. Did I ever tell you about the "pretty eyes" thing? Whenever someone tells me that, I like freeze up for a second as if I don't know what to say. I often have to be reminded to say "Thank you". During dinner, Emma and I had a debate over how many napkins I used to use (I used to use a lot, after being bothered about it, I reduced it to one). She said I used 10+, I said only around 7 or 8.

I went to my room early and opened my door. When I sat down, Tim had already crept in. Then, it happened! I was doing my homework and reading a translation in English from Spanish. Basically "If I were you". The sentence had a girl's name (Cristina, but it is also the name of someone I know). I read outloud "If I were inside Cristina, I would make flash cards". Basically "If I were Cristina" literally translates to "If I were inside of Cristina". Tim took this and ran to Jeremiah, which prompted Jeremiah to bring up multiple events where he assumed I was being popular with the ladies. They were all taken out of context... For the most part. That is how I ended my day, basically.

Here's Another Monday

I woke up feeling pretty ok. Not too many problems, as usual. I decided to go to Statistics without trying to resist it. Class was pretty meh... I saw Kathy again, but she sat in the row behind me. At times during class, I thought I felt her looking at me, but maybe that was just my imagination. Linguistics, on the other hand, was rather...... boring. I just wanted to leave. I guess I just wasn't in the mood.

I e-mailed Dominic today too. I just was wondering about how she was doing, I guess.

After class, I decided to go to JAVCA. The whole day was spent on the Gamecube. Super Smash Brothers Melee and Mario Kart Double Dash. I was one of the first four players that played. I won my first round, but during the second round, Tierra gunned for me while the others tried to get me as well. She says that she hates Fox. I lost that one to her... Mario Kart was fun too. I usualy got 2nd or 3rd place.

I had a quick dinner, but I left to watch Heroes. Heroes was pretty good this week, but my homework was frustrating me at the same time. Eventually, Jeremiah came over. We tried to to our homework, but that failed. My homework was SO annoying. So, we played video games. After that, I went to bed.
