SPIRIT!!!

Spirit launched last week! I forgot to post about it, so here I am- This is what Spirit is…

Spirit is an untethered jailbreak for all iDevices running iPhone OS – iPhones and iPod Touches 3.1.2 or 3.1.3 , or 3.2 (iPad). It was developed by the iPhone hacker comex, and allows users to install software not approved by Apple on their iDevices. It is available for both Windows and Mac. It follows in the extremely simplistic tradition of the jailbreaking program blackra1n‘s UI.

(From Wikipedia)

This jailbreak is UNTETHERED, which is groundbreaking :3

You can check out comex’s page here – http://spiritjb.com/

And, in case you want to download,

MAC OS X

WINDOWS

As with all jailbreaks, be safe and be smart!

My day tomorrow.

Tomorrow will be odd 😮

Instead of going to, well, actual school, I’ll be going to Six Flags…for Physics >_>

So, while I’ll be able to ride anything I want, I’ll be expected to be calculating G-Force, Centripetal force, Kinematic equations and Free-fall problems, Conservation of  energy and momentum and some other complicated stuff… joy
I guess it’s not all bad though, considering it IS a day off, doing relatively fun stuff ^^

Lets hope I don’t drop anything too important off a ride though…like some instrument or something – that could end badly >_<”

I’ll write a ‘today’s todays’ in a couple minutes 😀

J-Core

So it’s been a while (partially because I find blogging to be tedious, and with 0 readers, there’s not much of a point to it.)

But I’ve recently been downloading a lot of music from a particular genre- Japanese Hardcore, or, aptly named, J-Core.

It’s 90% crap, but some great songs have come from the growing J-Core community, none of which are gaining any mainstream viewership. I’ll embed some videos so you can get an idea of what I’m talking about – It’s good stuff, overall.

Here’s a bangin’ track from M-Neko’s album Nekology, called だんごーバザーク. One of the only and best Dango Daikazoku hardcore remixes out there today. Listen at max volume for those Clannad fistpumping bawww sessions.

Here’s another track, this time from REDALiCE – called Six Nine. It’s pretty good as well.

Here’s a sond for you Matrix fans out there – this is Redpill by DJ Sharpnel. This is the real bassdrum ammunition. Enjoy.

And for the last song in this long post, here’s YOU by 源屋. Recognize it? Yeah, this is a remix of the Dear You songs from Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni.

Hope you like the post, more to come (I’m about 10.20 GB in to my J-Core/Makina/J-Trance collection…this is becoming a space consuming hobby, FAST.)

LONG overdue D:

Well, today (officially) is my girlfriend’s birthday! And I WAS THE ONE TO WISH HER HAPPY BIRTHDAY FIRST ON FACEBOOK! Ha-HAAH!
Sorry, but like 3 people TRIED to, but I WON! :3 (Cause I love you, Shannon!)

Well, here’s the substance for t0(night’s) post – A recap of the past few days.

Well, on tuesday (Crappppppy day) I had a Japanese presentation, a Literature essay (in class) and THREE pop AP US History essays (in class.) It was insane! He expected us to write so much in such little time…hopefully I did ok ;-;

The literature essay was pretty fun – I pretended to be T.S. Elliot, writing to Franz Kafka about existentialism – heavy shit 😛

I talked about the “idea of the modern man” and how Gregor Samsa was devastated by his transformation, because it caused waves in his family and in the lives of those around him – completely contradictory of what the true existentialist believes. -shrug-

The Japanese presentation was nothing to report- I wore a newspaper as a scarf and pretended an army man was a sex toy. I think I may have actually gotten a hundred. Also, in the presentation, I was for sale (with the newspaper.) 😀

Anyway, TODAY, was a bit better 😀

In AP US History, we took a literacy test…from Alabama.

Tough, huh? No, really…this was the hardest test I’ve ever taken – and here’s why.

It was from 1965, and was one of the (then legal, now outlawed) literacy tests given to black americans to “test” if they’re able to vote or not- clearly these tests are impossible, even for whites/educated people to pass, so it wasn’t fair. At all.

AND you had to get a 100% on the test, or you couldn’t vote – not to mention often those that did get perfect scores weren’t informed that they passed, so they never voted anyway.

Take the test – HERE

(Answers are at the bottom – NO CHEATING! XD )

Oh! And I got accepted into the program I wanted to get accepted to!
It’s called the “Work Based Learning” program, and I basically get to leave campus every day (next year,) drive to a job, work, get paid, and get a grade for it. Cool, huh? 😀

It’s really exclusive, so I’m happy 🙂

Speaking of exclusive, I got accepted onto a great torrenting website the other day as well! It’s called tT, and the people there are really nice… I won’t talk to much about it, cause it’s invite only, and the only person who needs to know about it that reads this blog already does ❤

I may try and put up my answer sheet from that test-  it’s kind of funny, considering I put down “kill me” and “who knows?” as answers for some of them XD

Well, I’ll have a “today’s todays” post TOMORROW, I hope, and I’ll get this blog back on the road! 😀

I LOVE YOU SHANNON, Happy birthday, my snuggly bunny ❤

Never let go 😀

Confirmededed!

Today was a pretty awesome day ^_^

I’ll spare all the school details, because they weren’t so amazing- the real great part is that I got to see my girlfriend go to her confirmation (Catholic.)

So, let’s take it from the top- I was originally afraid I couldn’t go, because I can never seem to find rides to things ;-;  But, because Ken has such nice patients, I was able to get one! 😀 (This is a patient I’ve met before, and even had dinner with a few times, so getting a ride from her wasn’t all that odd…She was super nice!)

So, I got to my house, and changed- at this time, Shannon called me, and told me about her hair (which I was DYING to see.) I got dressed, was driven back to the office, and eventually talked to Shannon on facebook…where I was a very mean bear ;-;
I was kinda blue, cause I hadn’t eaten anything all day, and I just wanted to be able to see her, which unfortunately put me in a bad mood D: After kinda getting pissy, I decided to write Shannon a letter (something that I’ll begin to do more and more now ❤ ) I hope the letter was good…

But, after my Mom came to Ken’s office (for some unknown reason,) she took me to get food, and I felt better :3

And THEN it was time to go to the confirmation ^_^
I showed up at the church, and was totally lost But a nice lady came and told me where to go, but she thought I was someone getting confirmed, which was awkward cause I was standing in the line of confirm…ees? for at least 3 minutes… gaaaak ><”

Oh well! She figured it out, and led me in to the chapel room thing, which was big and pretty :O

I got a seat, and waited for Shannon’s parents/brother/aunt/uncle to get there, and eventually they did. But before I saw them, I saw Shannon, who in the most adorable way possible came and opened her arms for a hug, and said “I’m so happy you came…” to which I replied “You think I’d miss this? I wouldn’t miss this for the world!” It was a magical hug, anyway :3

Well, after my beautiful girlfriend went back into the line, I sat in the room, and eventually the very Catholic procedure started- very Old World, very cool 😀

I watched Shannon go up to the…confirming place…and she looked STUNNING- the hair was amazing, and she was wearing a cute dressy-skirty like thing, with black pantyhose, cute boot-like shoes, and a beautiful shirt & blouse (I pray to GOD I named those all right ;-; )
Well, the show went on, and Shannon eventually had a reading role (which I didn’t know there would be) 😀
She did GREAT (You did great, baby ❤ )

Then the bishop talked a lot, and there was a lot of praying, and I was feeling so insecure, not knowing anything about Catholicism… but then the people started getting confirmed, and before I knew it it was Shannon’s turn 😀

She “picked” (I think that’s what the process entails) Saint Michael, all because of the prayer I sent her way back at the grassroots of our religious discussions…that really, REALLY meant a lot to me, even though I played it off in the car, Shannon…

…After the ceremony, we all went back to Shannon’s house, and there was dinner to be had 😀

The best part was the kissing and holding hands after, though ❤

Long story short, this was an AMAZING day, and I’m really, really, REALLY excited to see her tomorrow at the play (which I will blog about as well, rest assured ❤ )

(Shannon, I love you…you’re my everything, and I hope you’ll know that forever…) Ooops! Gotta go! Shannon’s calling me :3

-LJ

Free at last, so here’s some stuff.

So, school let out, and I’m stuck at Ken’s office for 6 hours… (if anyone’s reading this with a car, wanna bail me out? ;-; )

I figure this is a great time to put up my song of the day, which has been in my mind for the better part of today 😀

(This is completely copying you, Shannon…please dun hate me D: )

How to spot an Emo kid (and how to avoid him.)

Link to original article

Sometimes, you’ll be at a party sipping on a frosty beverage and talking with a few people that are standing around the same area as yourself and you’ll turn to someone new.

“Hey,” you’ll say.
“Uh,” he’ll grunt.
“Did you see that football game this weekend?”
“Uh, I don’t WATCH football.”

That was a little weird. Still, you persist.

“Um, OK. Well, I just got the new Clap Your Hands Say Yeah album, and…”
“I’ve been listening to a lot of My Chemical Romance.”

Then it hits you. Holy crap, I’ve been talking to an emo kid!

At least with Goth kids, you can spot them from a mile away. But for the emo kids, it can sometimes be a little difficult to figure out who they are, and you can get ambushed into a conversation about Panic! At The Disco.

So, to ease your mind, here are a few easy ways that you can spot an emo kid from a mile away.

1. His hair covers one of his eyes. Not both of his eyes, or you’ve got a hippie on your hands. Emo kids like to only see half the world, because it’s sadder that way. They’ll often have horrendous looking hair that serves a dual purpose; blocking out half of their vision and making them look like huge tools.

2. His shoes are chucks, and some thing’s drawn on them. Not the peace sign; emo kids don’t care about the world outside of their own tortured souls enough to promote peace. That would be hippies again, and if you were dealing with a hippie, you’d have smelled him by now. No, an emo kid will have a word drawn in block letters like PAIN or a picture of a broken heart.

3. He’s looking at the ground. Don’t try to look at the ground with them; there’s nothing there. They’re staring at the torn and tattered fragments of their own souls, or maybe their broken and battered self esteem. To the rest of us, though, it’ll just look like tile.

4. He’s drinking wine. Unless it’s new year’s eve or you’re celebrating something of equal magnitude, no dude should be caught with wine at a party. Emo kids forgo this rule; they don’t like the taste of beer, because they aren’t real men, and they like anything that resembles blood because it’s depressing. Bonus emo points if he’s drinking it from a fancy glass.

5. He’s crying. Emo kids will always be crying about a girlfriend, a girl they want as their girlfriend, the new Dashboard album, or something to that very sad effect.In fact, it’s very rare for emo kids to have enough self esteem that they can make it through a commercial break of a sad, sad TV show without crying. They cry when their favorite bands come out with new albums and they cry when they’re happy. Emo kids live on tears, they same way that bears live on fish.

If you spot an emo kid, make no sudden movements; they’ll try to explain their passion for crappy music to you if they notice you’re interested in them. Instead, just wander to another corner of the party and don’t talk to him. Eventually, he’ll cry and leave, and you’ll be glad you spotted him when you did.
