1901

The weirdest thing happened this morning. I just kinda woke up at 8am. I didn't feel tired and I had 15 minutes before my alarm went off. So, I laid there and tried to go back to sleep, but surprisingly, I was too awake. To say the least, it was quite strange. The only really bad thing about this morning is that it was SO cold.

Also, I won't say that I'm not tired right now, I definitely am. However, I read somewhere that if I go to bed at the time I usually do, this would be the time for me to take a quick nap, and I think I'm gonna go do that.

To break the ice, I start to sing.

Killing All The Flies

I haven't been at school long and it already feels like the longest time ever.

It might be because my days at school start as early as 8 in the morning and my days at home usually didn't get started till around 10 or 11, but I can honestly say I already want it to be spring break.

There's all this commotion surrounding the iPad, and it's really not that great. I don't recommend it at all. It just looks like an iPhone for giants.

Everyone please pray and vote for Andrew Garcia. He is a true American Idol.

Spell Konfusion with a "K"

I accidentally fell to sleep today watching basketball which is why I'm up.

I don't like this restlessness at all. It doesn't make any sense when I'm definitely tired, but I just can't go to sleep. I tried listening to music to calm me down and lull me off to sleep, but it just keeps me awake because I just get into whatever it is I'm listening to.

Looks like the best thing for me is to just wait for my sleeping pattern to correct itself, and I need to force myself to stay away from napping intentionally and unintentionally.

I really want to learn piano.

I Am A Cold Seahorse

I'm officially exhausted. Tomorrow I have my first 8:45... and it's my Kant class. Should be interesting since everyone I know says it's going to be really hard. I'm willing to work hard though. Besides, that's what I'm here to do right? When work finally starts, I know I'm going to hate it, but obviously I'm gonna do it. I'm currently watching AJ Rafael on blogtv, but I'm gonna head out since I'm really THAT tired.


Goodnight,

Carl

You're Touchin' Me Like Piano Keys

So, I'm awake right now and I have class at 9:05...

The past few nights I've had a real issue getting to bed earlier. It's not that I'm not trying to go to bed earlier... it's more that my sleeping pattern is really messed up. I'm gonna blame that on break. Oh well, I hope that this week will correct it, and then I won't be completely exhausted by the middle of the day.

The weird thing is, I didn't even feel like I had to take a nap today. I felt really tired, but I kept myself awake by listening to We Came As Romans and looking out the window, although there wasn't much to see.

Time to try and sleep again.

With love,
Carl

More Wii Fun!

As of today I've successfully softmodded 2 Wii's. My next project is going to be completely replacing the casing on my Wii to make it completely black. I don't know when I'm gonna get around to that but hopefully it'll be soon, as it'll be very time consuming.

I started playing this game called MadWorld, and it's every bit as bloody and fun as I've read. Not to mention, the soundtrack is simply awesome. There's something about running around and driving someone's head through a spike to techno-y fast paced rap that is just satisfying.

Anyway, I'm gonna keep this short since I really need to get to sleep. I've just recently been really tired and I just have to go to bed earlier.

Goodnight!

MIA

I've been MIA for the past few days pretty much because of my last post. It took me 3 days of work, but I've worked out all the bugs and after some good softmodding I can play Wii games from from an external hard drive using their iso's. I'm pretty happy about this, and have been downloading and playing new wii games for the past few days. I can't tell if physical therapy has been good or bad yet cause honestly my knee is feeling a little worse these days. But obviously they designed it to be helpful so I'm sure in the long run it'll be feeling better. If it doesn't, I'll have to get an MRI and a bunch of other stuff so hopefully everything will go well.

It's weird to me that pretty much a week from now I'll be back at school and doing work again, but I'm down for it since like all winter breaks, I'm running out of stuff to do. But I know as soon as I get there I'm gonna hate it since during the week I'll be waking up at an 8:45 and a 9. I will definitely not be getting enough sleep, but I'm gonna try and keep it all under control. We'll see how that goes, but this semester is all about the GPA pretty much. I guess now would be the time to start focusing up and really really buckling down cause otherwise I'm pretty sure that I'm just gonna get absolutely slammed.

Good luck to everyone entering the new semester,
Carl

Turning My Nerd On

After an early morning orthopedist appointment, I've been sitting in my dad's office all day doing small things like making copies and organizing files, but mostly reading game reviews and other random stuff on Reddit.
I've been looking into hacking my Wii, which promises to be very quick and easy, and I think the remainder of my break will be devoted to finding games, burning them, testing them, and playing them, since there's not much else to do . I'm still in the process of finishing Twilight Princess which has been fun, but there are plenty of other games I'm sure I haven't checked out yet on my newest system.
I also found out this morning that I'll be starting physical therapy tomorrow for my knee which is a good thing because I honestly want to get back to running so badly which is weird considering I normally hate running.

If you haven't seen Avatar, I recommend it, although some might say it's Pocahontas meets the smurfs HAHA.

I see you,

Carl

The New Year

I've been MIA for the past few days, and I'll be honest. I've mostly just been playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the Wii. I got one for Christmas so it's consumed me. I don't feel bad about it at all though. I haven't played too many video games lately. The last one I played all the way through was Ninja Gaiden II when I was at school.

Anyway, speaking of school, I've got about the hardest course I could possibly take next semester coming up, and I'm actually trying to prepare for it. I got 2 books, and I'm gonna crack them open this week. It's something to do, considering I'm already kinda bored and break is far from over.

I think this upcoming year should be all about getting and staying motivated cause honestly a lot of the time I don't really feel like doing much of anything. But the only way things are gonna start happening is if I start doing something. I know it's 3 days late, but that's my resolution I guess. To put an effort towards getting shit done. Especially this semester cause if I don't, I'll probably just get destroyed. But in general, I don't want to become one of those people who does a whole lot of talking but at the same time a whole lot of nothing.

shout out to Mr. Chi City who shows us how to get it done right here:
