Im Bored!

Ive been studying too much and im bored. Hopefully I didnt waste too much of your time by writign this;)

So.... Dont do drugs. Classly people look down at you like common street trash and any girls worth talking to arn't impressed by them. You'll also regret it later in life.

Dont get gym memberships!

Ive been going to a gym since I first got to highschool. I started by just using the school gym and in grade 11 I switched to GoodLife Fittness Club. I must have spent over half a thousand dollars in membership and monthly fees there for the 2 years I went. At the beginning of this year, I bought myself 350 lbs of weight, an olympic bar, and some adjustable dumbels. I only paid 200$ for all of this! I now do all my workouts in the comfort of my room and have to pay nothing. I feel so dumb after spending all that money. I suggest everyone that goes to the gym and uses primarily the strength equipment to go out and buy your own.

Its also great being able to workout without a shirt on and with a can of tuna beside you:)

I gave up my Xbox!

I lent my xbox and all my game to a friend for several weeks so I can concentrate on studying for my midterms. Now if only the NFL went on strike, I could study all day.

More Halo 2

I just finished Halo 2 on campain (heroic) and wow! It is simply amazing! I liked the campain much more then the one in halo. The only part of the review for halo 2 I read was that of the weak story, and I completly disagree.The original Halo had a unique story because right off the bat, your thrown into a series of events that you dont understand. You now know what is going on in Halo 2 because of the original , but Halo 2 continues to evolve the awsome universive of halo.

The ending is, however, weak. I want halo 3!!!!!

Halo 2

Well I dont post much anymore . With Halo 2 out now, I probably wont post at all . This game is amazing, and im just here to tell everyone to buty an xbox, xbox live, and halo 2. That said, if you didnt like the first one, you probably wont like this one. And good on microsoft and bungie for releasing it at 59.99$ in Canada, where most new games are usually 69.99.

What does a poor audiophile do?

Buy a pair of klipsch 2.1 promedia speakers! Thats what I did, and I havnt turned them off except for when I sleep! I have never heard of a better sounding pair of speakers (mind you I havnt heard the 5.1's). The speakers themselves are three times the size of my old yamaha 2.1's, and the subwoofer is twice as big as my old one. My mouse shakes when I play some bass pumping songs. My parents room is 4 floors above me and they still always complain and tell me to turn it down:)

I also only paid 40$ US for these on ebay. They are 299$ at ncix.com, so I definetly came away with a steal. But I see them go for 70$ all the time. The fist thing Im doing when I get a job out of college is buying the promedia 5.1's. (Currently 650$ in Canada:()

Im also looking to buy an audigy 2nx sound card but no one wants to ship to canada (on ebay) and it costs around 150-170 at stores.

I now a Linux user!

I decided that because my computer is too outdated to play games, I would try to install linux on it. Seeing as I know nothing on linux and nothing on command prompts, I thought I would downlolad the most user friendly version (there are tons of versions of linux). Somehow I made it onto the Slackware Linux page (an extremly not user friendly verision) Something about it, maybe the penguin, maybe the aura around the name, drew me in. Some downloading and some cd burning later I was ready. I rid my self of windows xp, though I ended up making a partition in my harddrive for it, and intalled linux. Even with a guide infront fo me, it was decently hard (the guide wasnt complete and didnt match the setting s I required). 2 hours lated I got it installed! I met many challenges and am still working on getting my net to work but damn it was fun.! Im conversted! I love tinkering with programs.

I could have bought a PS2, I could have bought a Gamecube... Gamming Computer?

Nope! I spent 850$ on books and a graphing calculator:( There are tough moments in everyones life, and this is one of mine. Evey single text book I had to buy cost as much as a console. My graphing calculator cost 200$ alone! If I dont make a lot of money when I get my degree, Im suing my University :) So the books cost an outragous amount, but atleast I get that new book smell! And this way I get some incentive to do well in school.

Canada has the second highest tuition costs in the world. I can't even imagine how the people in the States (the highest tuition in the world) are able to go to college! I spent 7000$ on tuition, and 850$ on books and supplies. Thats just for 1 out of 4 years. Had I not received a 3500$ scholarship, I would probably have to spend a year working to be able to go. Anyone else have any crazy high school costs?

Thinking of going into Engineering?

Thats 9 hours in one day!!!


I know Im cool, but please!

The other day I was carousing around the forums and came upon "Bethany's" profile. What do I see? "I like cheese!!!" is writen in her description about herself. What? I ask... Im the "I like cheese" guy. I have always been the "I like cheese" guy. I was here before she even found out what cheese is! Im god after all! I know she is the "Ultimus Moderatus" around these parts, but does that give her the right to go around stealing people fire's? And dont give me the "its a popular saying" or "its a coincidence"! This is not a coincidence but is a personal attack upon my humanity. I order that this statment be subsiquintly removed from her profile and that all other such acts be treated with upmost importance and imposters be given the harshest of punishment. Whats next? Is she going to challenge my claim of being the one and only "God"?
