Crashing

For the last, almost a, week I've been crashing at my brother's appartment in the great city of Philadelphia. So basically I have very restricted internet useage because he uses his computer alot and the people around him are smart enought to put passwords on their wireless networks.
 
This post is actually more of a test in that I'm posting via email because once I get down in South Carolina for my summer job I fear that email is the most I'll have.
 
I am starting my trip down this friday afternoon and will arrive early saturday morning in Clemson i think.

Ok time for another post

So what has happened of late? Well we went to the zoo last monday and did some other lesser stuff during the week.

One of the biggest developments is that I got a guitar. A picture of it can be seen here.

It's a Seagull acoustic complete with electronics. Got it on a deal from a friend who owns a music shop. Oh and it's used..... really used.

The previouse owner was a song leader at a church. The guy who jams the chords out of the guitar while he sings. I think he knew little about taking care not to hit the gitar with his pick while playing. Its not too badly dinged up but ther were some nice dents around the inside of the soud hole and in an arching pattern down from the scratch plate. Any guy who does that to a guitar should be rolled in a fire ant nest.

But it plays sweet, and I'm playing again so the dings dont matter much to me. He even hit the bridge real nice a few times. I should stop looking for dents, makes more of them appear.

I are a hi-skool gr4ju@t

Yippe for me! I survived Highschool and am now a graduate!

Yesterday I got up, got yelled at for sleeping in and not helping with the preparations that were all being done at the last minute as they alwase seem to be done for somthing this important, and went for a 1 1/2 hour drive to the college campus that was reserved for the graduation. Well I had to be there at 12 because they were going to reherse the whole thing with the students so that we weren't completely clueless when the real thing started. After that I went up to the room that we rented from the college for my personal after-graduation party. I got into my best clothes, the ones I never wear, and I headed back down to the room where the other guys were getting suited up. In a few minutes everyone was ready and paradeing around in the "robes" (It's not a dress it's a kilt......sicko!). So then the presentation started, and whent on as a usual graduation. The validictorian, who was one of these blond girls who has like a zillion highschool credits because she has her own fashion line, gave a long speach that she had clearly rehearsed billions of times and that was adressed more to the air over our heads than to us, at least she never looked at us. Then we were in for a treat, the pastor who was going to adress the assembly was one of these born-again drug-dealer/gang leaders. The guy could preach like a black Baptist minister. He was G-O-O-D grood, I mean good. Then the diplomas started to get handed out and all the graduates had a little blurb read about them that they had submitted to the diploma commitee. I hate those kind of things because compared to you they all seem so great, or rather they flaunt thier achievments. Oh well, if I had known I would have put in "Able sniper with 7 out of 9 confimed fatalities" :P. I mean deer of course...... I'm not a hitman so dont nobody go askings me to wack nobodys.

Any hoo, I got my diploma and had an after party that turned out remakably well, except that on of the guests fell in the parking lot and had to be taken to the E.R. but showed up latter anyway. Man it makes me sick that that college made their curbs invisible..... Thier trying to bump the older generation off is all I can figure.

Ok well I gotta eat.

I'm going to email around some pictures because I can never get the blog to put them up how I want them.
