    Pretty wicked. I suggest a band-aid.

    I always knew Antec makes serious cases, though mine hasn't so far drawn blood. But now I know to keep my eyes open, even if it's a different model.

    Gotta put some Neosporin on the wound before bandaging it. That'll heal it up quick.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I've been applying band-aids, but I forgot about the antibiotic. That (pic) was me airing it out a bit since it gets a bit damp. (I think it's from the shower, despite my wrapping it in glad-wrap and rubber band prior to it.)

    Guess Antec managed to make a case that's truly silent but deadly.

    Power was out again for about the 5th time this month. This time for 5 hours.

    That it was only on the base. Which begs the question, why is a military base out of power?

    Shouldn't that be sort of important to fix?

    Deadfire :

    Thats easy, they're testing some super secret weapon that consumes a gigantic amount of electricity when used !

    But yes, I would think military installations would have a stable backup power system.

    last year, i was in a base that lost power (to half of the buildings) about 5 times an hour each night.
    it was really annoying to shower there, the light would randomly go out.

    nobody cares, we also had to lay down routes for the internet cabals,

    nostalgia aside.

    I've finished the math exam!
    since September I've been studying towards the exam, which is the highschool final exam in a higher level.
    I hope I didn't make any stupid mistakes...

    but apparently, I did.
    I think I had some confusion about integrals and what not, and messed up the answer.
    I even knew that something doesn't seem right during the test, but even after looking at the question for half an hour, I couldn't get it right.

    damn. I wanted to ace that test...

    I'll get the exact score next month (or so), but I could give out a pretty decent estimate tomorrow morning. next up, is the higher learning entrance exam, in April.

    at least I can probably start watching more anime now, for the next two months or so.

    sig made by Itachi-y2k5, thanks, dude!
    Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    When I woke up this morning, the ground was covered with half an inch of ice. I scraped my car off and left for work anyway, knowing that the most dangerous part of the trip was in my neighborhood (from my house to the end of my street goes about 300 feet with a 35 foot drop in elevation, and since they're tucked away off the main road neither gets plowed, ever).

    Bitching part: coming back 10 hours later, they still didn't get around to salting or plowing or anything, so the ice is going to linger for days longer than all the other streets around here.

    Well, its normal here - they plow streets after a day, so once whole gdansk was blocked by this, it took 3h to get to nearby city where it usually took like 20 minutes, people were happy that they were driving 5 kmph. Still its damn annoying.

    I got a new car this past weekend and the tire was flat last night... some guy pointed it out to me when I parked at wal mart, so I bought a can of fix-a-flat while I was there and used it.

    My coworker just informed me that fixaflat is horrible and not to ever use it. TOO LATE!

    Water Trap that comes with my compressor doesn't trap water.

    Well...that's not entirely true. Thing is, it traps water, but not water vapour. Apparently the air comes out of the compressor too hot, so the water is vaporized, bypassing the water trap. It then condenses in the air-hose and comes out the other end.

    Result: airbrush spits out water while painting models. Luckily I could distinguish it from my noobish nozzle control while I was testing before painting my proper kit.

    Now I'll have to look for an aftermarket in-line moisture trap.

    Not many stores that sell stuff like that here neither, so I'll have to either order it or ebay it, which means 7-14 days postage + handling. Also, I can't go and physically try on the airhose and brush to guarantee a fit, so I'm hoping all the specs are right, and the seller knows what his stuff works and doesn't work with.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    I've been chronically depressed for over a week now. I think something's actually wrong with me.

    I just found out I'm graduating in May when I thought I had until December. I've had to miss several classes to deal with essentially preparing for the rest of my life. I've been physically ill since last week and I can't seem to shake it. My appetite still hasn't returned, because when I eat more than about 4 bites of something, no matter how hungry I am, I start gagging. I've thrown up twice because of that. I can't really seem to deal with anything now, and it feels like I've lost control of my life.

    Edit: And every band I meet either doesn't like me or needs someone more professional. That was my sure fire way to lift my spirits and improve my social life.

    Shit man, wish there was something I could say to make you feel better, but I think you'll be fine. It's a big change, going from school life to the real world. But it's mostly upside, once you find a job and get settled in to start the rest of your life.

    Is that a major concern, with the current economic situation of the job market? Or is it more about a lifestyle change that bothers you? If you need more time, maybe you could postpone graduation, maybe complete a minor in something. You seem to have a pretty close family, so at least you can lean on them if its a financial situation. Otherwise, keep practicing the bass guitar, and some band will be the perfect fit when the time is right.

Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Your current bitching reminds me of an old one I posted some months ago.

    We were on a meeting at work, but the telephone line didn't work on the room we were. The seconday line was dead as well.

    And we ARE a TELEPHONIC COMPANY DAMN IT!!!

    I've been through a lot of hardship before. Like XanBcoo, I've been depressed a lot lately. I get the feeling that I should erase my existence and just be more content that people should know that I'm not around. But, then I think, "What about those who do care for me? What should I tell them?"

    Today, I've gotten in trouble a lot for past things (like from a year ago), got treated like trash by other people, and seemingly strings of bad luck just revolves around me. I don't know what I should do anymore...

    Well, you can read the "What made you smile..." thread to know the after effects of depression. No idea why I sulked.

    My company has gone communist with blocking internet sites this week, due to supposed continued (and erroneously reported) network abuse. They blocked ufc.com, Victoria's Secret, Frederick's of Hollywood (lots of chunky women here who like to buy lingerie to feel better about themselves), and some other big sites that are not considered work related.

    Hopefully they don't block gotwoot, though I'm probably the only person in the company who visits here, I do visit a lot during the work day.

    So let's bitch.
    Yesterday got fired from my job. 6 months ago, broke off the almost 7 year relationship with my ex. I currently live at my sisters place and do not have a home. My friends are getting fed up cause of my current personality. I try covering my problems with jokes. I hate the city I live in. I've been depressed for a long time ago and have gotten allergies cause of stress. I often think of killing myself since life is hard, but almost immediately think of what kind of pussy I am, which makes me wanna do it even more. From age 6 to 15 I was living in a children's home of 8. My dad is not my real dad. I keep living in the past. And you know what? Getting all that out doesn't make me feel better.

    FUCK!

    Now... we can click as warriors... button to button, it is the basis of all internet.

    Sounds like you've hit rock-bottom. Now's a good chance to start over and remake yourself. I don't want to sound judgmental and I don't know you, but maybe you've relied too much on those "killa eyez" of yours for too long in life. Looks and smoothness only take you so far. You need some real character and something to offer the world.

    I'm off to another city in a bit, I plan on living there in the near future. I'm going there now for the weekend and stay at a friend's. Gonna find me a new job there and I'm already searching for a home. Also thinking of school again. Ya can't do anything worth while without papers. Thanks for the advice Animeniax, though I already know all off it. Despite my life not going so well for me, I'm surrounded by some of the greatest persons around. I appreciate that. My friends are my family, they know I'm in a pickle.. They won't let me down that easily.

    Edit: And about my Killa-Eyez, I've never relied on that.. Heck, I don't think I'm that slick at all. It's just my nick cause others seem to like them.
    Only had 1 girlfriend. So yeah, ya didn't know much about me. Now you do. I have too much self pity is all. I just can't stop thinking how all this bullshit is sooooo not necessary. But yeah, I thank the system for making my life so clich&#233;.
