School

Posted by Extravisual on Aug. 31, 2006, 9:23 a.m.

Overused blog title eh? Anyway, last night was an orientation for the new high school I'm going in to. I get there and look at the place. >__>. Its three god damn stories high! The only building I have seen bigger than that was Mall of America (not really). It turns out that thats the only public highschool for the entire southwest Cape Cod. The student count at that school is literally more than the town I grew up in (3-4 thousand). The school itself is in shambles. They currently are rebuilding 2/3 of it so all the students are packed into a third of the school. Inside everything is trashed worse than any school I have seen.

Some good news is my mom found a charter school up north a ways, its quite a ways off, but anything is better than going to the monster mentioned in the above paragraph.

(Did I mention that that public school had an indoor gym the size of a football field?)

In other news:

- REZ (Not REZ2 or RATF) is coming along nicely, although a bit slower than usual of recent.

- While REZ works on his side project, I decided to do my own. Its a little one-script TDS using only draw functions. (no advanced looking players, just a circle and a line ^_^). I managed to get the player and movement working, but then I get stuck on the bullets for some reason. Meh.

- I'm also helping with a certain Java project (Not programming XD) That Arcalyth is programming. I would have just shouted about it in this blog, but Arc told me to keep it on the down low.

- I'm drinking IBC rootbeer right now. Arrr!

- I found out that the ingredients of my favourite chocolate ice cream include Chocolate Liquer. No wonder its so bleeping good XD

- My mom bought Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Thats the funniest movie EVAR.

- I'm considering downloading a Terminal Interface library for Python just because it would be fun and it looks extremely easy to use.

Thats about it.

Monty Python's The Meaning of Life is VERY good.

Especially the death section, where a man dies by running off a cliff. The fact that he's being chased by a load of topless girls on rollerskates is neither here nor there…

IMO The Holy Grail is the worst of the MPs. Its still really good, and if you think they are hilarious, wait until you see the others (Life of Brian, Meaning of Life and Now For Something Completely Different)

hehe, All of the Monty Python movies and sketches are good. I think the Holy Grail is good. Although I can't deny the topless girls of The Meaning of Life isn't good…

Porn is always good.

I have seen: Meaning of life, Holy Grail, Life of Brian, And Now For Something Completly Different, and a large number of sketches and I still think Holy Grail is the best.

Apart from violent porn. Or animal stuff.

That's just gross.

Yah my school is in the 3-4 thousand count, with 3 stories as well.

And btw:

I wanted to be…

a lumberjack!

<div style="height:100px;overflow:auto;padding:5px;border:1px solid #AAAAAA;">Leaping from tree to tree, as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia. The Giant Redwood. The Larch. The Fir! The mighty Scots Pine! The lofty flowering Cherry! The plucky little Apsen! The limping Roo tree of Nigeria. The towering Wattle of Aldershot! The Maidenhead Weeping Water Plant! The naughty Leicestershire Flashing Oak! The flatulent Elm of West Ruislip! The Quercus Maximus Bamber Gascoigni! The Epigillus! The Barter Hughius Greenus!

With my best buddy by my side, we'd sing! Sing! Sing!

I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay.

I sleep all night and I work all day.

He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.

He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees. I eat my lunch.

I go to the lavatory.

On Wednesdays I go shoppin'

And have buttered scones for tea.

He cuts down trees. He eats his lunch.

He goes to the lavatory.

On Wednesdays he goes shopping

And has buttered scones for tea.

He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.

He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees. I skip and jump.

I like to press wild flowers.

I put on women's clothing

And hang around in bars.

He cuts down trees. He skips and jumps.

He likes to press wild flowers.

He puts on women's clothing

And hangs around in bars?!

He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.

He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees. I wear high heels,

Suspendies, and a bra.

I wish I'd been a girlie,

Just like my dear Papa.

He cuts down trees. He wears high heels,

Suspendies, and a bra?!

!!!!!!!!!

What's this? Wants to be a girlie?! Oh, My!

And I thought you were so rugged! Poofter!…

………….

He's a lumberjack, and he's okay.

He sleeps all night and he works all day.

He's a lumberjack, and he's okaaaaay.

He sleeps all night and he works all day.
