I got my lunch packed up, my shoes tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight.

Today was my first day of College in over 3 years. Even though it seems a bit silly I was very fucking nervous but I gotta start somewhere right?

I woke up at 7:45 and got to HVCC around 8:30 this morning. My first class started at 9. Sweet. I got through all the bullshit traffic on 787, found a parking spot and did it all in about 30 mins. So I look at my schedule a read off my first class of the day, English Composition 1 in AMZ 214, or so I thought. I got in there and it didn't feel right. I looked at my schedule again, AMZ 214 is for Wednesday. On Monday's its BTC 307. FUCK. That's about 2-3 buildings over. I politely get up and say, "I'm sorry I read my schedule wrong" and started my way over to the correct building. To get from where I was in AMZ to BTC I had about 5 mins. I get to my class and I'm sweaty, out of breath mess from jogging over to the building and then getting up 3 flights of stairs. I sit down and I can say this with confidence, I was the oldest person in that class aside from the Professor. All the people in my class were fresh out of high school and I recognized one from my sister's graduating class(my sister graduated just this year.). The teacher I have, I can say I don't like her at all. Instead of getting right into the class like I had hope she would she made us do this "get to know your classmates" bullshit thing. We had to get up and have a small circle that faced an outside circle, you had to introduce yourself and tell the person what you liked to do. I couldn't have gave a shit. I'm 25 all I want to do is get what I need from this class so I can start working on my major right away. The first person I had introduced myself to was a young girl named Maytha, she said she was from down south and doing something with telecommunications and computers. The next couple of people were not as interesting or talkative as Maytha was so I really don't remember their names or what they did. We all did agree that it was a very awkward thing to put us into though.

Class ended and I made my way to my second and last class of the day, Math Structures 1, aka retard math. I'm not good at math and this class was the reason I dropped out of college and lost all my financial aid benefits, so now I have to sit down and really learn it. This class had a few people that looked around my age so I didn't feel as awkward but it was hot as hell in the class room and it made me a sweaty mess. I had gotten there a few minutes early so I was able to do some blackberry myspacing and what not, haha. The teacher came in and I'm happy to say she got right into the class, no bullshit meet your classmates, she simply said, introduce yourself to your neighbors so if you can help each other out. I liked that. We got right into numerical sets or some shit. I kinda understand what shes talking about the dude in front of me whose name I completely forget explained it to me a little easier so I felt better on that behalf. What was driving me nuts during the class is we are sitting there listening to the professor and outside about every 2 minutes I hear the skidding of car tires and I'm thinking to myself "what the fuck is going on outside!?!" Some other students had made a remake about as well, so it felt good to know I wasn't the only one annoyed by the mysterious screeching car noises.

Class ended and I made my way to go get my books from the book store. I'm happy to say as I was about to walk in Pat Dwyer came walking out saying "fuck that bookstore" the line was huge. So I sat outside of the book store and we just shot the shit for a little a bit. An old friend Alicia came out the book store and was very surprised to see me. I said hello had a small conversation and went back to talking to Pat. As I was talking to Pat my friend Lacy called and told us she'd be right over. So there we were being the awkward people we are hanging out in front of the book store talking about absolutely nothing. I love shit like that. I'll never understand why. Beau and his girlfriend also showed and said hello. Glad to see people I know.

Tomorrow I have American History at 8, Math again at 10 and General Psychology at 1. I'll update on the my 2 newer classes tomorrow. I'm very excited about American History. I hope the teacher I have isn't dumb R-tard.


Currently listening to Apartment 213 and moshing hard.

The end is here.

So tomorrow morning marks my last day as an employee of Equal Vision Records. I'm pretty bummed out and excited to be leaving. From here I will recall some of my favorite things that happened while I was working there.

-Making stupid animal noises while printing with Beardo and Marco just to annoy everyone in the office.
-Chris D. hates girls who look like Chris D. t-shirts.
-Night Crew with Mikey Prema and Joey.
-Salsaritas queso=om nom nom nom.
-www.omnomnomnom.com
-naps in the emulsion room at 7am because I was waiting on the burning schedule
-Random debauchery with merchnow dudes and Mike A.
-Annoying the shit out of Chris Sez and Dave Harris when I first started every time they walked by.
-The creation of Final Friday on the final Friday of September 2006.

All in all I like everyone I met there, well mostly everyone and I'm gonna miss seeing them everyday I learned a good trade as well.

School starts on Monday. I've yet to buy my textbooks mainly because I haven't had time to get to the school to buy them. I will be taking Western Civ, American History, English Composition, Math and Psychology. I'm pretty pumped. This time around I'm taking classes I'm actually interested in. 25 and going back to college. Better late than never.

The test presses came in last Thursday for the Reptar EP. I'm very fucking excited. Once I get the rest of the money in order(which should be by the end of next week.) I should have them in my possession by late September/early October. There will be 100 on clear red and 200 on solid blue. 30 of them will be put aside for the record release which will have the most ridiculous cover ever.

So I think thats it for now. I'll have another update once school starts.

Currently listening to Left For Dead. Skingraft just played. I mentally moshed.

Summer is almost over. I'm bummed out so hard. Aside from the bender weekend, I haven't done much of anything. I want to do something bad and its driving me nuts. I start school back up at the end of the month. Studying history, I'm pretty excited. I also still am itching so hard to get out and see the road. I want to tour so bad. ahhh I'll figure it out. About 2 weeks ago I sent out the paperwork and down payment for the Reptar record. I'm anxiously waiting on the test presses to come back.

I've decided to let my ipod just go through shuffle as I work. I want to see how many days it takes for my ipod to go completely through. The nice thing I guess is it will scrobble everything it's played once I hook it up to my computer and my last.fm thing detects it. haha I lead such a boring life.

Face Value, Black S.S., Sick Fix, Reptar and The Infidels on Saturday. I'm pretty excited about that show. Final Friday was supposed to play the day after with Orenthal James and It's Alive but due to circumstances with OJ the show was cancelled. I just want Final Friday to play again. I also want Dave's arm to get better so we can start writing new material again. The new songs we started writing have greater promise than the songs we originally wrote which I find boring now.

I'm currently listening to Negative FX. Slapshot sucks as does Choke, but this band and LP rule.
