So, today was the inaugural. I didn't like the ceremony (which took a frickin' 3 hours because it also involved a 3 course lunch and 4 people giving speeches), but afterward me, Vinny and two freshmen went in Will's "stagwag" and bought a bunch of junk food at Albertsons' then went to Jaylenn's house to watch the Cowboys-Bears game. All together at his house was me, Vinny, Will, the two freshmen, A.J., Carlos and Jaylenn. We played Madden on Jaylenn's PS3 during halftime. So after it was over Will took us all home and here I am typing this nonsense. Yeah.
....and we lost again last Friday. But this time I got to play and actually made a stop on a punt fake in the backfield. I felt so much better than last week.
Well, signing off.

.....ughhhh (again)
....well, life is somewhat better now that Mr. Loomis put me in on special teams....in the line-up magazine under my profile it says that I will be a backup offensive lineman and will no doubt contribute on special teams...that doubt is gone now, but before today I wasn't on any special teams. I wasn't even a kickoff scrub.
...and calculus is getting easier, ish. In addition to ridiculously long functions we have learned about limits and continuity. I have no doubt in the future I will enjoy this course....along with physics. God's called me to do engineering, so I know that I will enjoy what he wants me to do. Which reminds me, I should think about what kind of engineering I need to do......civil? mechanical? computer? Whatever it is, it will show itself.
....say, I made another blog site called A Long Time Ago There Were No Idiots. In a sense, it is a prequel to Very Soon There Will Be Doom. Because currently there are idiots, there will be doom very soon. It's all in the Bible, mind you. (By the way, the idiots would be people like Marilyn Manson, Bill and Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, etc etc etc ad nauseam) so click here and enjoy. I think it will end up being a political/theological/philosophical blog, something that has a meaning instead of this were I just think random thoughts and type.

ugghhh.......
...life isn't going really well right now. We lost 0-14 to Brentwood last Friday and I just stood on the sidelines and watched.....a whole week of hard practice for nothing, and I watch everyone else fall apart out on the field, and I begged for the coaches to let me in but for some strange abstract reason they put me off. It's my senior year, last season of football and I don't want to remember it as the year that I stood on the sideline and watch things go wrong. If we're going to lose, I want to be out there with my brothers.
...on top of that, none of the girls considered me for the inaugural. Normally I would care less, but it just added on top of everything. Ah well, probably have more fun going by myself anyway.
Despite all this, I know God is in control and things will eventually go better.

update....
....well, here I am, off track for the first time this year. Woohoo.
......so double sessions ended pretty strong, and the first week of school wasn't so bad. However, we lost our first football game friday night to bakersfield christian (those guys were HUGE!!!!! their biggest lineman was 6'6", 290 lbs. That's 100 lbs. more than me!! I actually rushed over him and literally just bounced right off of him) Despite the fact we lost I still got to play a couple defensive rounds (and got a tackle!!). The score was 24-7, but maxpreps.com predicted we would lose 49-6 (what the heck? do they think we can't score a PAT? or we score two field goals? or three safeties? whatev)
...so, since it's a leap year girls have to ask guys to the academy presidential inaugural. The girls could have started asking yesterday, and so far, I'm still not asked....but I can care less. Some of the girls got creative in their asking by slipping little notes or puzzles and the guy has to figure out who wants to ask hime (like Connie G. bought Ben a whole pile of candy and he had to arrange labeled candies in order to find out who wants to go to the inaugural with him.....I think it's cowardly, I'd rather have them ask me face to face)
.....and I got my own cell phone!!!! It's a razor or RAZR or however the heck you spell it. Thing is, I have to pay my dad 10 bucks a month for service. I'm not telling you stalkers out there (wait, who the heck would stalk me?.........no one, obviously.....but I'm still not publishing my cell phone number)
Calculus was pretty ridiculous today; we started off with functions and in my previous experience functions were pretty easy. But it got super complicated (like I had to solve a function with F(g(h(F(g(x)))...and that took a long time) And that's not even calculus, it's really advanced algebra.
...say, I was just reminded of a nightmare I had last night. So, it goes like this: We're at school, chilling, when Mr. Carson comes up to us with this brochure about a Cohesion Camp in downtown L.A. So, since Mr. Lee is going with the Marines to Iraq (in real life...this just crossed over into my dream) and there's no one to whip us into shape we decide to head out there. When we get there it's like a square bleak concrete building with no windows. So we get inside and it turns out the "instructor" is a neo-Nazi running a secret torture extermination camp to slowly ebb away the population. So, we got tortured alot through physical exercise. And then comes the worst part: they needed to check our current health status by a rectal probe. Then I just said, "Screw this, I'm getting outta here" and started running for the exit. I had to like jump over barbed wire fences (indoors? dreams sure are strange...), avoid gunfire from machine gun towers and eventually made it out. Just as I was getting out, another group was heading in to "exercise". I yelled a warning ("DON'T DO IT!!!! THE GUY'S A NAZI!!!!!) and ran off for fear of WWII style Germans chasing after me. And then my dream went off into a completely different storyline. I hate when it does that.......
