I'm Bored.......

Wed Jun 18, 2003 4:10 am

I spent most of the night lurking here at TR and a few other places on the net, (and I'm getting paid for this) its been an absolutely downright S...L...O...W night in the service business. I feel like the Maytag repair man! So how did you spend the last eight hours of your so called life?? :-?

Swimming, playing JK2, and sleeping.

The glamorus life of a guy on summer break.

Drinking coffee, watching anime and playing some Chrono Cross on the PSX.. The glamorious (and somewhat poor) life of unemployment.

Let's see, I was mainly trying to fix a broken video file that had read errors. It is great "fun" considering the fact that it can't even be copied from the CD due to the errors. I did find some time for TR though. :)

How about learning a module of Biology from about 9, in time for the exam at 1:30, then doing that.

You got it easy, you don't have a headache lol...

And tomorrow I've got synoptics in economics and physics...

Oh man! Exams suck!

the last 8 hours before you posted, I was sleeping about 5 of them...the last 8 hours of my life now, I guess i'd only slept 3 of those, so those are the most "interesting"...

I was playing Virtua Fighter for Sega's 32x and a little Tony Hawk 3 on Xbox before coming to work

came to work, answered phone calls on the IL State Board of Ed's school reporting...one other school i talked to lost like 30 students in the database...

and it's almost lunch time. w00t!

No. I figure that's ****, no offense. Year 9 at school was probably my worst, I was never friendless, but at the same time, I wasn't exactly popular.

I've changed a lot since then. As I'm doing my last two exams tomorrow I could happily say I'm leaving the school on good terms with just about everybody.

Indeed, I once had an IM convo with someone who came online to say goodbye (yeah, oh bugger!) and all that... told him exactly the same.

Whether he was serious or just looking for a hug, I'll probably never know... but I also know I sent him a very distressed e-mail lol.

i don't think he means run away from home...i think he just wants to get away from all of life and be an alternate person...i've had that feeling...just for something different, something new...life is dull!

I've got an Abit NF7 motherboard here that I've spent the last 8 hours of my life trying to get working. The AGP slot seems hosed. Brand new stinking board too...

RMA anyone?

Gotta love that legacy technology. Just make sure that you don't plug in the AT power connect the wrong way and power up. *BOOM* :wink:

I would not do that, you just have to remember that you keep the black wires together and you will be okay. If I can not get them working, I may do that to get my revenge on them *laughs insanely* :evil:
