PASSED!!!

Well, I finially passed that damned exam.. 933 this time! Thank god!

So next week, or mid week after, I’ll be taking my next exam. You can all look forward to that enjoyment.

Well, it’s been a week since I last updated, and not too much has really been going on. Lets see, Friday I went out to this party with JonJon, it was a straight party and well, the people were nice and it was ok.. But the place was a pit and disgusting. Blah! There was also this guy there that I swear I knew. Oh well. Sadly they were all straight.

Saturday, I got up early with Nikki and we went to get wood for the camping trip. Picked that up and came back to my place then we studied for her test and then JonJon me and her went to lunch… After that she went to work and JonJon and I just hung out. Josh came over late that night and we all watched a movie and then went to bed… (Well we all didn’t go to bed, though that would have been fun). 😛 Actually I didn’t go to bed tell like 6am.

Sunday, we were supposed to go hiking, but my alarm didn’t go off… Good old Nikki though came and pounded on my door and called until we got up and then we went out hiking… It was a good old time. We walked about 5 miles from Laguna Beach back to Aliso Viejo. Lots of cool pics. I’ll have to get them still from lauren.

Got home after that and went to bed for a few more hours. (Ok, I slept tell like 10 or something when Andrew called and woke me up).

Work that night and then went home, sleep and more work tonight.

Blah.

The build has failed already.

Night all.

Links Links Links!!

Ok, well this is going to be a post of a lot of links….

First, I love this TV show called. “Low Carb and Lovin’ It” And there’s this really cute boy on there, who I thought was gay. guess he’s not though, but anyways, I found his blog and it’s very amusing… I highly recommend listening to StellaStyle. He’s also has some really good photos.

Ok, and I know you all love PORN! So here’s a great website for you. Now, I’m sure I’ve all heard me complain about how you can’t RENT porn here in the OC… Well this site is just like netflix! How amusing. If I watched enough porn to justify it, I’d totaly sign up, but at least now I can rent porn for a weekend or two at a time when I want too.

Speaking of netflix… Here’s a better replacement for it… It costs about $2 more per month, but they send money back to local movie places.. IE: GreenCine is partnered with a few key organizations like the San Francisco Film Arts Foundation, the Academic Film Archive of North America, Consolidated Works and the San Francisco Silent Film Festival, all devoted to keeping independent, international and classic film alive. So yeah… I’m thinking I might sign up for them.

Ok, I’ve known about this place for a long while, but now I found the website and really want to go! Uncliamed Baggage! I want to take a road trip to the store sometime.

And lastely… Here’s some amusing Post Cards

Umm, so what’s been up in my life? Well as usually not too much.

I got an interview offer to a place up in Santa Ana… I called and told them I wasn’tinterested… It was some random job involving more business then I care for right now.

I also have a meeting set up at work with the new Business opps guy… We’re going to talk about some projects I’m going to be taking over. That could be exciting. Though he mentioned PHP, which I haven’t done anything with in a long while, so I’m kinda nervous about that.

I’ve started my diet again… It’s going ok.. I’m limiting my calories, and also going to start going to the gym more. I went monday, or was it tuesday… Either way, I’m sore as hell and can’t lift anything with any wieght.. It sucks ass. I guess I pushed myself too much. Going to go back tonight and just do the elyptical.

Going to retake my test tomorrow. Hopefully I can get those 5 points that I missed last time. Gah! I better.

There’s only two more episodes of GG this season. I’m so SAD that it’s ending.. I must make a trip up to LA sometime and do the whole WB tour…. Maybe May 30th, cause I’ve got the day off and Andrew should be out of school by then. That way we don’t have to miss anything.

I’m very excited about going back to Iowa this summer. I really hope that I get the chance too… Things that I want to do while back so far include:

Mitigwa (Maybe even go down to Wapello for an OA Ceremony)

State Fair

HuHot

Biagis

RedLight

Java Joes

Art Center

Adventurland

Blank Park Zoo

Porn Shop

The G&G’s house.

Chat Noir

Reiman Gardens

And of course Hot tubbing/swimming at the Parents!

Well, that’s about it for now. Night all.

Test Soon…..

I have to take the ICND test soon… This week… Wed probably.

I feel so unready for it right now, but whenever I review, I always say to myself…. I know that. Or I get this.

But there’s just so much that I still don’t really understand, and since I don’t have access to a lab full of cisco routers like most people do, I can’t test my knowledge on the actual configuration of these things… I’m getting book smart, but not reality smart. It sucks.

Also the syntax for things change so much. Things to me which seem like they should have the same syntax just don’t…

access-list

access-group,

dialer-list

dialer-pool

dialer-class

dialer-group

I just get so confused as to when to use which one, and what the fucking syntax is for them… I just really hope that the test routers have the full help commands installed on them. If they don’t, I’ll be fucked. I think that I do pretty well on the multi-choice part, it’s the sim part that hurts me. 🙁 I’m so nervous for this test.

And also, the company hasn’t re-paid me yet for my last test, which is really annoying. I took it nearly a month ago… That’s $200 for the tests they owe me, plus $65 for the books… And then once I buy the books to start my next tests, and pay for this test they’ll owe me $465, assuming I pass on the first try. It’s just really annoying not having that money.

Alright, This weekend…

I spent a lot of time sitting around my house. Friday I didn’t do anything, but stayed up pretty late not doing it… I love all the crazy dating shows that are on at like 3am. lol.

Saturday went out and did a whole bunch of random things. Went to CompUSA for the second time in two weeks… I REALY REALLY hate that store. I yelled at like two employees after they pissed me off….. Best line of the day…

“Could you go look it up then, cause I don’t keep a computer up my ass to look things up like that”.

I HATE that store… If everyone stopped shopping there and they went out of business, I won’t give a shit…. Honestly I don’t see why people go there in the first place…. They are over priced and if you WANT To buy something that you have to have an employees help for, you have to literly CHASE them down.

Now, I bet you are all asking, well what were you doing there then?… Because I had a gift card there, and it had to be spent. Otherwise I would never step foot in that store.

After that I went to petsmart and bought the kitties a new toy/food/litter… Then it was off to costco where I bought $100 of food. Then to Vons for some more food, and then I bought a nice LCD monitor for my computer.

From there it was back home and I didn’t leave again all night. (It was another late night too)

Got up about 12:30 today and sat around the house for a little bit, then went up and picked up Andrew. Brought him back to my place and gave him his B-day gift. Spent the rest of the night at my place with him watching movies and shit.

Drove him back to Chapman and then went and worked out….

Now I’m here at work.

Laters all.

Back To The Grind

Well,

Break is over, and it’s back to work for me… Another hour and a few odd minutes and we’ll be back in the OC. I really don’t want to go back. I really wanted to stay in Iowa.

If someone were to offer me a job back there tomorrow, I’d totally move back. Even the people on this flight going back to the OC are bitchy as hell… All the people on the flight out of DM were really nice and friendly. There’s this lady sitting in the isle seat on my row. She’s a total fucking bitch.

Anyways, yesterday was lots of fun. Got up about 8:30, after sleeping forever and then went up to Ames and visited with Krellisans for a long while. I wish I still worked there. Barb even gave me a hug!

After that I went out to lunch with Sarah and we had a good time talking about homos and stuff. Then I drove back to PC, stopped at home for a little bit and then went and picked up Nikki. We had to pick up her sister after a movie, so I didn’t really want to go anywhere and start doing anything, so we just drove around some. Finally the movie was over and then we went off to my house and I showed them around PC. After that it was supper at Hickory Park in Ames, and then down to DM to visit my cousin. That was a blast.

From there it was Java Joe’s for like an hour and then back home for the night. I’m really glad I got the chance to show them around DM.

This morning. I got up about 10 and went to Jordan Creek. Walked around there for an hour with my mom. The boys are Hollister were WAY hot!

From there it was back home and then time to leave. Got to the airport and have had really good flights so far. Both of them should be getting in early. My first one was just a little early, like 15-20 minutes. The one I’m on now is nearly an hour early. Which is just amazing.

Work tonight. I think I’m going to go home, rest tell 3am and then go into work and work tell 10… Which is what I have to work tell anyways. Tomorrow I’ll be sleeping really well.

I’m really glad that I have the 3rd off.

Umm, anyways. I shipped my box to Cali, it was only $45 which wasn’t bad for a 65 pound box.

Have I mentioned that I want to move back to Iowa. :'( Usually I’m crying on planes because I’m leaving someone I love… Now I’m crying because I’m leaving somewhere I love. :'(

Blah. Well. I just don’t know what to do. Andrew keeps saying that if I like it there so much I should move back… But I don’t feel that I can. I don’t want to feel like I gave up on living in California, I don’t want to leave my job which I DO like. And I don”t want to move back and have my grandma be all…. I dunno how to explain it, but she’d be right.

Apparently my generation is called the “echo” boomers. Gah, crazyness.

I really wish that I had time to get a second job….I’d like to have some extra money to buy new clothes… Or to start setting aside for a house…. I figure I should purchase something in the next 5 years… If it’s for me to live in or rent out, either way. I should start investing in the real estate market sometime soon.

Ok, well my computer hasn’t been charged in a few days. So it’s nearly dead. I’ve got to break.

Laters all.

The Sims 2!!

Yay! This game is so hot! Why isn’t it out for mac yet!?!?

Read some VERY hilarious stories here. OMG, it’s great!

HAHA! God I love the evil things you can do in this game.

Ok, So today has been really fun. Though I got about 1 hour of sleep this morning and then came home and slept the rest of the day.

Well anyways, last night was pretty good. JonJon came over and cooked dinner then we hung out in the living room for a while. He fell alseep at sometime, and then I went to bed later. We got up about 5:30 and got ready then headed over to Nikki’s house. Met up with her and everyone else and then headed up to Newport Beach. JonJon and I got there WAY ahead of everyone else, so we got kick ass parking. Got checked inand then walked around looking at shit.

The other people got there later and checked in. TONS of fucking people everywhere.

Finally it came time to walk and we did. That was lots of fun but it was really really hot!

After the walk we went over to Fashion Island and shopped. jonJon and I got ditched at the first store we went to (The apple store), so we just shopped on our own.

From there we broke and got lost in Irvine, eventually made it to the spectrum where we ate lunch then broke and went back to my house. Watched a movie but we both feel asleep like 5 minutes into it. I woke up sometime in there and went to my actual bed. And slept tell like 7 or so. Called Andrew and told him I wouldn’t be up tonight.

After that I went back to bed and slept tell 12:30 when JonJOn called me. Thankfully he called me too, or else I would have probably slept ALL fucking night long. Gah! That would have been horrible shit.

Anyways, ran into work and here I am working, but I’m so tired and about to fall alseep any minute.

Today will be spent sleeping a lot too. 🙂

I think I may be sick or something. Who knows.

Anyways, laters all.
