11:10 pm - So my dreams are comming true......
Then what the hell am i going to do? i got my degree in computer science, i got a job as a software developer, i'm living in a great place out of the house with a woman i care about. What else is there? i may as well end it all now 'cause it's surely going to go into a shit can real soon....right?
maybe, or maybe not. Things are going great, i'm living the life i've been waiting for...well all my life. hopefully now that i'm back to the city i love i'll be able to reconnect with people that i've lost touch with. i doubt any of those people are going to read this but i don't give a shit. this is more about me now, no one to do this for but me.

12:06 pm - back in the 'Ville
yeah so i got my end of semester grades. i'm on the five year plan deffinatley. i may or may not have to re-take my calc class. i passed with a D but i think i need a C if i want the minor. i should probably re-take it anyway 'cause D's suck for the GPA.
i'm back in summerville sittin around doin much of nothing. kelly went to CT to spend the holidays with her family. that means no sex for two weeks, it's gonna kill me. "everyday without a bj i die a little inside," i'm just joking. she is in CT for two weeks but there's no problem waiting it out.
merry chrismas to all, hope everything is going well. i'd like to see everyone, call me on my cell if you have the number or you can always leave me a message on AIM: OneShirtChris duh what else would it be.

09:34 am - the five year plan
well it's almost official, i'm on the five year plan for getting my degree. i just got out of one of my exams, turns out i would have had to of made a 100 on the exam in order to pass the class with a 69. I can't take this class next semester bacause it's only offered once a year and that pushed back another class i have to take next semester. if these classes are offered in the summer then i could be back on track with no problems. but i doubt they are so i'm on the five year plan. 5 years is the average now, but still i was hoping i could do it in four.

07:45 pm - happy endings are for disney and massages
fuck college, it's too fucking hard they just want your money anyway. you should just have to pay for 4 years and get whatever degree you want. i think that would solve alot of problems for the college community. like the problem of students cheating on tests. if there where no tests then there would be no cheating. the same with plagiarism. no papers then there aren't any disputes over if the material is really yours or not. "of course it's mine, i bought it for 20 bucks"
(pay no mind to this: emi 11 leigh: OUCH i hit my chin with my belt! ouch! it's turning red
OneShirtChris: wow you're so graceful)
now back to my point....i'm not sure i had one except fuck college. i gotta go study.

12:18 am - to the next chapter........chapter eleven
ok so i'm not really bankrupt, but sometimes it seems that way when you don't have the money to buy decent food. sandwiches for the next few days until the weekend, then i'm going back to charleston for the hockey game, also aparently there's a show at all books i'll no doubt be making an appearance because i need to get away from things for a while, music is my escape. (lame? possibly. unorigonal? probably. without substance? never.)
my brother and sarah will be in town as well, so i'll look forward to seeing them again. i found out that my other grandmother also has cancer, my father didn't give me details, but he just said that it's not good. i haven't seen grandma voges in the longest time. she didn't even come to my high school graduation because she was angry with my father at the time. however, she is family and it is time to rebuild burnt bridges. she will most likely be in charleston around thanksgiving so my holidays are shaping into a busy one.
i'm starting to hate computer science, or maybe it's just the class i'm taking. i don't see how this class is going to help me with programming in the future. we are programming in binary and binary is as dead as my ability to do cartwheels. i don't know when i'll be getting to sleep tonight, but i'll try to sleep now. that's all

10:18 pm - life is transition
it's strange going from having someone to talk to about your boring normal day, having someone that really wants to know how your day has been going, someone that really cares to listen, to having no one but your buddies to tell you to shut up that guitar 'cause they're trying to watch some crazy SciFi movie of the week. the thing is i don't know what i miss, the person or the feeling. the feeling of knowing you have someone that is waiting to hear your voice and speak to you about everything and nothing.
i probably shouldn't even be putting this on here, most of you will skip over it and pay me no mind. i'm tired of getting use to things, getting use to liveing with three guys again, getting use to full-time college work, getting use to being on my own again. thearapy cost money, live journal is free. mike, do what makes you happy, fuck everyone else.

10:57 pm - Goatman - stuff of legend
ok so sean was fuckin around on google and typed in my first and last name and hit enter. this is what he found:
The Dallas Morning News, Dallas, Texas
Man or beast? Goatman lore reborn in FW
By Jacquielynn Floyd, October 21, 1999
The summer of '69 left a lot of people reeling with disbelief. Woodstock happened, and Chappaquiddick. Neil Armstrong strolled on the lunar surface, and there was a rock festival in Lewisville with naked hippies. The Goatman didn't seem much less plausible than anything else.
He was the local Sasquatch, a hairy apparition detailed by credulous sightseers and wild-eyed teenagers and even improbable news accounts. For a few glorious weeks in 1969, as summer stretched toward fall, Fort Worth was feverish with Goatman delirium.
"Everyone talked about it. It was in the newspapers," said Robert Hornsby, then an imaginative 9-year-old with an avid interest in monster stories. "It was as real as a man going to the moon."
Mr. Hornsby, a New York artist who grew up in Fort Worth, has revived the Goatman legend with a series of stories, pictures and sculptures. His exhibition opens this weekend to coincide with the downtown public library's reopening after an elegant renovation.
It's a logical site, since Mr. Hornsby spent months researching the Goatman's history at the library.
The creature's story
According to Goatman lore, the half-man, half-goat lived on a scraggly island in Lake Worth, which was accessible to the shore by a muddy car track, making it a popular venue for necking and beer ingestion.
Teenagers spread tales of being chased and hooted by a 7-foot-tall, 300-pound Goatman. A posse of Goatman-seekers reported the monster appeared on a bluff and hurled an old tire at them, frightening one man so badly he backed his car into a tree.
Mr. Hornsby dug up pictures of a Goatman statue sculpted by an Azle man at the height of the hysteria and used them to produce his own series of sculptures.
The result is a long-necked, flop-eared, slope-shouldered, pot-bellied, Neanderthal-browed, unihorned anthropoid goat with an expression of undeniable malice but also of a certain cunning charm. Like the legend, he is temptingly believable and utterly memorable.
Because the Goatman was sometimes attributed to a prank by kids at nearby Brewer or Castleberry high schools, Mr. Hornsby invited art students from those campuses to contribute their own interpretations of the legend to the exhibition.
The legend died out long before these students were born, but they loved the story Mr. Hornsby related.
Two halves, two sides
Their artworks reflected two obvious schools of interpretation on the Goatman's character. Some, like an ominous silhouette of a slouching, menacing beast, suggest a sinister, malevolent Goatman, angry and bent on violence.
Then there's a tragic, misunderstood Goatman, a lonely figure exiled by his hybrid status from both human and goat societies.
"I don't think he's really evil," said Brewer senior Melissa Rodriguez, whose Goatman is a series of mournful sketches. "It's like people were scared of him, but it wasn't his fault."
The story faded with time. The only remnant of the myth is that the unofficial name "Goat Island" stuck to the weedy little spot where the Goatman capered and howled and hurled tires so many years ago.
Maybe he was enraged, or maybe he was lonely. Maybe he was just curious, according to one young artist, who wrote:
He creeps at night through brush and tree / Or scraggly grass to peek at me.
Or maybe the Goatman was just passing through, camping out on his way to someplace more private or more scenic or more hospitable.
After all, it was an awfully strange summer.
For those that remember me as "Goatman Chris"

10:33 pm - Ricecop Strikes!!!!!
ok so it's a boring ass night on the university campus so damien, phil, and i hatch a brilliant plan to poke fun at all the rice cars around the college. first we went to www.ricecop.com and printed out about 16 of the tickets on there, you should look at it.
we printed them out and then went looking for cars that fit the check boxes on the ticket. once we found one we filled out the ticket and then plastered it on the car's window. from afar it almost looks like an actual ticket for something.
when we had no more cars to put the tickets on we headed back to the apartment, i think the campus pigs were driving around and looking at the tickets on the windows i hope they don't take them off, i should get my camera and take pictures of some of the horrible rides i've seen around florence. there's an eclipse at the mall all the time that looks like a piece of dookie on wheels.

10:00 pm - how does that make it better?
most recent question asked by someone i care about. sorry things didn't workout like in your dreams.
my weekend sucked, the show was good until A Day Without Blood played, jacksonville sucks. sorry to everyone for losing it a little. i'm usually pretty cool headed but i think i got pissed due to other factors not just the kids at the show, and to those who said they had my back thank you, but fighting won't help anything, that is unless the goal is to not be able to have shows at jonny ola's anymore. again, sorry.
Current Mood: disappointed in myself
