A Fresh Start

Wow, it’s been entirely too long since we posted anything. As you can see, we’re going for a fresh new look here. Blogger recently changed a lot of stuff around and added some functionality including profiles and comments. We decided to take the opportunity for a fresh start. So we dropped our initials, created our Blogger profiles, and changed our layout. We hope you like it.

A lot has happened in the last few weeks while we weren’t posting. There’s way too much to try and recount it all, so I’ll try and hit the highlights. First was the unfortunate departure of our third member, Jimmy. I’d like to apologize for those of you who came here to read his posts, as I am partly to blame for him leaving. Most probably know by now that we had a difference of opinion, but I hope that it won’t keep people from reading Common Exception. Also, go check out Jimmy’s new site over at Xanga; his posts are as good as ever.

In other news (thanks Trenary), Manhattan is empty again. Most people left on Friday, and the rest of the stragglers left Saturday. I’ve been sitting in this gigantic room for 3 days wondering what to do with all this space. It’s awesome. And sad. It really is like a completely different place when everyone goes home.

Despite my major suckage (yeah, I made it up) in the last two weeks of the semester, I think I’m going to pull off A’s again. Sometimes I don’t think I deserve the grades I get. I ended up with middle B’s on both my finals, though not low enough to pull my grades down too far.

Now it’s time to look ahead. I’ve got 3 months of summer ahead of me. My only responsibilities are my job as a Cool Cat (best job ever) and to myself. I’ve still got that list of goals around somewhere and I plan to stick to it. I just hope I’m not bored out of my mind. Training starts tomorrow and I’m sure it will be as exciting as last year (sarcasm). Once we actually start work, things should get more interesting. I can’t wait for camp after camp of spoiled little kids whose parents send them here with $250 in their pocket.

Well, that should bring everyone up to speed a little bit. Look for a lot more posts from me now that I have free time again. Free time…wow…is this what it feels like?

Addition to my profile..

Yeah, this doesn’t exist anymore.

My profile now allows comments! check it out and leave me some feedback! Sorry about the lack of posts… I am busy just like C… But after this weekend I hope to have a little more time 🙂 lata all

Busy

My apologies for my absence. I’ve got two ongoing projects at the moment and a test tomorrow (today). Believe it or not, things will really calm down once finals week arrives. Don’t expect much from me until then.

So anyways…

Time one one of my “meaningful” posts I guess… Seems that a lot of my friends have issues with each other but rather then confronting that person and risking a fight they just talk behind their back… I have always believed that if you have an issue with a person, make it a point to talk to them about it if you can. You may not ever agree but at least you can come to some common ground. Anyways, I’m not saying I’m any good at resolving issues but if I have a problem I almost always talk to the person about it. If nothing else there is an understanding about disagreeing. Anyways on a brighter note Weekend was a lot of fun! I got to hang out with an old friend and go Dancing havent done that in a few months. (thanks for letting us come along F) and finally im gonna post some randomness that I created a few years back.

I know I’m strange

peace out

Out

This thing is really cool. It’s like…math…and stuff. I’m planning on this post being short, solely because of this link. It’s a little dirty, but oh so incredibly funny.

Stands on it’s own quite nicely…

I was going to update this site a little. Add a few new pages, add a cute little update window thingy on the left. But, as it turns out, this isn’t “our” website after all. It’s “Carmy’s” website. Why, you ask? Well, apparently stuff I add that Carmy doesn’t like, he can change whenever he so desires. Should I try to change anything, however, that Carmy likes, he will, essentially, take his ball and go home. He’ll “revoke my admin privileges” (and I quote). That quote is taken out of context, but the fact that he would make it makes my points quite nicely. He says he wants me to “talk to [him] about this kind of stuff” rather than post long oratorio’s about it.

Well Carmy, I tried to talk to you about it. I tried, and I have tried. But what do you do? “Well, I don’t like it. It doesn’t fit. Excuse. Reason. It’s still works this way. It still looks better this way. Excuse. Excuse. Excuse.” It’s your way, or the highway. You think you listen. You think I never talk to you. But the fact remains that when I do try to talk to you, it doesn’t even register that I have a problem with something. Then it shall be as you wish. If you don’t like it, take it out. Screw what I want or think. This was your website, is your website, and forever will be your website. That’s it. I’m out.

Edit this, Carson.

Sorry D

Bored

I’m so lazy. I’ve been at work for 2 hours already and so far I’ve done nothing to work on my projects that are due soon. It’s just hard to get motivated on the weekend. Plus, there are distractions out there on the web that make life so much more interesting than typing a paper. Ok, I don’t really have much more to say so I think I’m going to abandon this post and order some food.

Weak, Peter. Lame.

Many of todays links will involve movies of approx 5mb’s each.
For the record, I would like the world to know that, yes, I can do this. Also, I would like to offer, once again, a link to the most incredibly awesome white guy that has ever, or will ever, exist. Ever. Seriously.

I have conducted some more extensive research, and now, having consulted several people extensively and conducted much extensive…stuff…I now have a few more reasons regarding why I am so much cooler than C and D.

J: Often speaks in the third person–referring to himself as “himself” or “The J” This, alone, makes him cool. His posts are often witty and funny and completely lacking in any meaningful content. This, when researched (extensively), adds up to J Is Rules.
D: D can be referred to as “The D” or “Big D.” But this, upon further consideration, is also akin to something one might do in the…uh…commode. Yeah. That’s not cool. At all. Weak, you guys. Seriously weak. D’s posts are always “deep” and “meaningful” and…you know…have…content, and stuff. Which, inandof itself, is kinda cool, I’d admit. But, “Big D.” Come on.
C: For the next few days I will refer to C as Carmichael Thompson. I thought of that at, like, 5am last night. Oh, I didn’t go bed. Insomnia sucks. But the girls across from us are hot. So its ok. Offtopic. So Carmichael! (Or “Carmy” for short). What can I say about Carmy. His posts are always…uh…they’re…hmm…[minutes pass]…[literally]…yeah. Inbetween. Is that one word?

Oh yeah. She wants me.

Good Stuff

This week has been pretty good so far. Tuesday night was the leadership banquet and I was really impressed with how it turned out. Winning a scholarship might have helped make it a good night too. Then yesterday we had the shortest ARH meeting of the year, so D and I went to Sonic afterward for some food.

Now I get to focus on the things to come: 2 tests, 1 group project, 1 individual project, a web project for MIS Club that isn’t finished, and finals. If all goes well, I’ll only have 1 final for the 3 classes I have left. That would be most excellent. Like summer.

Ok, this post is really just a technique designed to put off some of the work I have to do. Procrastination = bad.

Edit: Apparently I’m Lois. I’m kinda hot for a cartoon character.

Who knew?

w00t!

Finally got my watch back and fixed! The only downside of having a $300 dollar watch is it costs $100 to repair whenever you do something stupid to it. Grr. Oksomovingon! Going to start some new things in my posts! FIRST!
