I'm finished... Again!

So I'm officially done school. Well, I was done yesterday, but I got doing stuff so I couldn't post a journal.

My exams went well. They were really long this year, and pretty tough. I did them all as well as possible, but I'm sure I could've put more into it. Hopefully I end off with decent marks.

Yesterday was interesting... After my exam, I was supposed to meet my mom at the mall at around 12:30. She had a doctor's appointment, so she couldn't get me right after the exam. So I started walking, and I came to the intersection that I was supposed to turn at and thought "You know what, I don't want to wait around... I'm just going to walk home." It seemed like a good idea at the time, so I just kept walking past the intersection. I had the way mapped out in my mind, so it didn't seem that bad. And the I got to a point where I realized "Wait... Gill is a really long fucking road. Shit." and by that point I was too far to turn back. So I kept walking... and walking... for four and a half hours.

I didn't get home until 2:30, and my mom was freaked out (because I had no way of contacting her). I wanted to call her and let her know what was going on, I just had no way to do so. When I got home, I called her right away. She was a little upset, but it was all good. Definitely a learning experience.

It was also especially brutal because I had my schoolbag with me (laptop bag, not backpack), and had nothing to drink or eat... Yeah, it was fun.

As for the rest of my week, I'm sleeping in, maybe going to a friend's place to swim, and them partying it up over the long weekend (Canada Day, bitches)! And then I start work on Tuesday. Exciting.

So, there's my update of teh life. Hope you all have a good week, and for all of my Canadian brethren, have a fantastic Canada Day!!

By the way, I'm getting drunk tonight as a celebration of summer's arrival. If you want to join me o Skype, let me know. It'll be mostly metal-threaders from RvB, but all are welcome.

THREE DAYS!!

Wow, this weekend went by really fast. Anyways, three days until my birthday. I'm pretty fucking giddy. I have no idea what my parents are getting me, nor do I even know what I'm going to be doing (other than my Skypecast). I'm thinking that I will have a couple people over on Friday to enjoy a few drinks (though I plan to get pretty drunk, as expected of my by those tuning into the Skypecast). I'm hoping one of my friends will open up their doors on Saturday and allow me to celebrate properly. We'll see what happens. Anyways, that's it for me. Hope you all have a good week, and I shall post another journal sometime on my birthday (perhaps after the Skypecast). Look at that, I managed to fit in three sneaky ads for my Skypecast. Ooops, there's another one!

Alright, later days.

Skype Services

I've been playing around with Skype recently, and found a cool new feature. It's called "Skype Prime Services" and is a neat way to make money. Basically, it's a call-in service for whatever you want. Since I'm a geek, my services are computer based (general assistance, software enquiries, etc). Hopefully I can be making some money relatively soon. I've added a bunch of services down the side of my blog, as well as Google AdSense, so I'm hoping to get some hits in the near future, and start making some cash.

In other news, my birthday is in one week. Greatly looking forward to it, though I have yet to ask my parents about having people over here. I'm going to ask them sometime over the weekend, so be sure to check back soon for news. If I do have people over for my birthday, it probably won't actually be on my birthday, unless it's later in the night (9 or 10). I'm thinking about Saturday, but I guess it's all up to my parents.

Alright, that's it from me. Remember to check back soon, and be sure to check out my birthday Skypecast. Later days!

Two Weeks...

...and counting. That's right folks, my 19th birthday is in two weeks (April 13). As expected, I'm going to be completely drunk. I was planning on staying home the whole day, to get a head start on the partying, but it seems the school has scheduled a meeting for me on that day, so I have to go in... and I have to be sober (I know, total ripoff). So it looks like I won't be able to start drinking until after 2:00, but whatever. I'm hoping I can hang out with a few friends, if not at my house then some other place (*hint hint*). We'll see...

I want to stay home, at least for part of the night. I'm sure my parents will let me have a few people over, but only time will tell. Anyways, the reason I want to stay home is because a friend of mine from Roosterteeth gave me a great idea. I've set up a Skypecast (open conference call) to take place on the night of my birthday, so you guys (or at least those who have Skype) can chat with me while in my inebriated state. Here's the Skypecast page. This promises to be an unforgettable night... despite the fact that I'm probably going to forget everything!
