Well... what an interesting thought. The unobtainable is always the most desirable. At least it sure seems that way a lot.

I just finished watching The Cider House Rules and it was actually a pretty good movie, not the best I've seen, but pretty good nonetheless. I've also decided, based on a number of unrelated things, that I want a DVD player (portable ones are especially cool), a HDTV, a TiVo and a whole bunch of other stuff, that I'm not going to have any time soon due to the fact that I don't have anything near that kind of money. As a note, the links on those things are pretty much just examples of the things that they are in case people don't know.

I wish I had a cool site like [ s i n i s t e r . o r g ].
YEAH! Homework is DONE! Good-nite to you all!
Weird Al is the master of parody. This is quality. Good funny stuff. Well, he's probably not the master, however given my limited and American point of view... he'll do for now.
Just you wait... soon I'll start posting messages encrypted with a special algorithim just because I CAN!. Well, I'm probalby not really going to... but I'm so terrible bored, and I hate typing all these notes.
Hello my name is Russell, and I have a problem. You see... I have this burning need for more time in the day. I think starting tomorrow, I'm going to type and publish excerpts from a book called "Einstein's Dreams" about Einstein partially, and about these strange ideas of world where time flows differently from how we percieve it to here. That's right, beginning tomorrow, it's Einstien's Dreams week, even if I can't find 7 days worth of stuff.
How very dissappointing. TheSpark.com has predicted that I will die on December 2, 2030 at the age of 46 years old!

This of course was based on yet another silly test, and that was the Death Test. Ok, I've had enough silly tests for now. Time to get some homework done so that I can stop worrying about it. Although silly tests are great fun... it's interesting to see the kinds of things predicted for me.

Results on the "Love Test": I have a "love rating" of 61%, and my, "remaining 39% is essentially Lust and Sexual Greed."

In comparison with one of my friends, I am a horrible person. Interesting.

Well... next up on The Spark.Com was the Greed Test... my results are this: 73% greedy. Apparently, I'm the same as 1%, more greedy than 92% and less greedy than (you guessed it... if you know math...) 7%. Time for the "Love Test."
Well... I've been having fun taking tests at TheSpark.Com most recently of which was the "Purity" Test. I'm 63% pure, kind of dissappointing actually. Dissapointing in what way? I wish I was worse? I wish I was better? I suppose I'll leave that to your imagination, to marvel at the weirdo behind the curtain of the Internet... of course if you actually know me... then I suppose it's all the more interesting.
What the hell is "to glurp?" Stupid kid tv show ads. Also... there's this ad for "Lego Soccer" and in the end, there's this little disclaimer... "Cheering crowd not included." People in America are dumb. Little kids are stupid. I hate little kids. Why do we need these warning and disclaimers everywhere!? Ok... are you absolutely sure that I'm going to lose my balance and fall if I try to step above the last step on a ladder? Where else is there to step? I could be misinterpreting the intention and purpose of these seemingly absurd warnings... but such is life.

I think the only reason I bother to put little asteriks in where I would be typing "curse words" is because I don't want to have my site banned by the school I'm in... of course they don't do anything to prevent students going to Newgrounds or anything like that... so I wonder if it's worth the trouble. Another quick note: Newgrounds is funny.

Here's that link to the personality test.

7:05 PM Pacific: Please excuse us while we update some things. We'll be back in about 15 minutes. Sorry for the inconvenience

ARGH! f*** this. I'll post all this tomorrow morning... in the meanwhile I'll just save it as a text file. The Spark has a personality test to take... I think I'll do it tomorrow in comp graphics before the class really starts, or perhaps in a study hall.

This page just isn't interesting. It doesn't look interesting. I need to spend some time making a layout, end of story.
I wish I was part of some sort of greater blog community. There's a lot of cool blogs out there, and they're definetly worth reading. Just take a look at the directory and start reading stuff.

I feel so excluded.

You are all horrible people. Go donate to something.

Ok, so maybe not horrible but you should donate anyway.

AIM Express, in spite of it's dampend functionality, is the superior choice for me and my instant messenging needs. I don't use ICQ, I don't really have a need to keep in contact with people who do, and I don't like normal AIM, in spite of a number of neat functions it has, because it involves keeping a constantly updated and available buddy list, however with AIM Express, I can simply log on from anywhere with an internet connection, and be done with it. It's great.
Wow. Maybe it's just me, and maybe it's not, but I don't think I could possibly force myself to sit down and study for more than maybe 4 hours. But just now, I talk to this person and they say they've just spent 5 hours studying, and that they're stressed as a result of it. Wow. I suddenly felt admiration and pity, admiration that they could force themselves to do something like that, but pity that they actually did. Of course, when they tell me, I have no idea what to say, because I don't do that. I can hardly force myself to do one hour of continuous work without spending some time goofing off. These people who spend their entire days basically going to school, going to work, coming home to do school work and going to sleep, I can't understand how they do it.

But then again, that's just me. Now, I've been procrastinating cleaning up my room for the past 6 hours, and now, for an hour and hopefully a bit more, I will do so. I have so much laundry on my floor, it's ridiculous.

It seems that my personality type has changed since last year... So these girls in my school were doing a science project, and it involved personality type, and when I took the little test, it told me I was an "INTJ" which is the category called "Mastermind," however I took one earlier today for no real reason and it came up with "ISTJ" which is of the type "Guardian" and furthermore, it means I've become more practical instead of intuitive. I took these tests at www.keirsey.com, if it matters.

There are a lot of movies I'd like to see, for no particular reason, merely because either I've had good recommendations about them, or possibly somebody told me something about it... and it piqued my curiosity, however I was never able to learn more. Some examples of movies I for some reason want to see are "Seven," "Your Friends and Neighbors" and finally for this abridged list, "American Beauty."

I also need to watch "The Usual Suspects" over again because I flat out missed way too much the first time through.

I'll get around to adding an interesting quote to the template some other time... time for sleep.

I'm in school... I should be reading the Crucible and some current events but... I've got 30 minutes left in the class... so I decided I would make a link to something. Just because I could. I've changed my mind, and instead I am going to offer a brilliant insight I had this morning while taking the bus (much to my dismay... I'm far too young for a Junior [in high school]... I'll be stuck taking the bus for the rest of this year even!) and that was this: Seventh graders are f***ing annoying. Just in general... like when I got on the bus, they should know that people are going to be trying to talk down the aisle, and that you should not arbitrarily leave your feet and legs in the aisle because I am NOT going to go out of my way to avoid you.

Just offering my view on the matter... I don't even know if that little person this morning was a seventh grader, all I do know is that they were in middle school, and irritating.
