My Sporadic News

Sunday, August 6, 2000

    Today I've decided to add an entirely new section to my website!  It's going to be called the "My Daily News" section!  It's a place where you voyeuristic people out there can read the events of my life.  I have not decided whether or not to make this an entry every day thing or an entry every week thing or just a sporadic entry sort of thing.  I don't know whether this is going to be a spill your guts thing or not.  I guess time will tell.

   I guess this is my first entry.  Well last week was pretty cool, well sort of.  My parents sent me to Princeton Review.  I guess my SAT and ACT scores weren't good enough.  Anyways I got a SWEET car.  And I mean it is SWEET! It is a red 1991 Dodge Stealth ES with a Dual Over Head Cam Engine (DOHC)-- which means MORE POWER!  Plus it has a leather interior and a CD player.  I will post some pics of it once I detail it.  Yesterday I saw the movie Magnolia.  It was a sweet movie.  Now it's in my Top 10 list.  Even though it was long, it had frogs raining from the sky.  Even though some of the parts were a little weird, it had frogs raining from the sky.  Even though the title "Magnolia" had no correlation to the movie, it had frogs raining from the sky.  Bottom line___ IT HAD FROGS RAINING FROM THE SKY.  That was one of the best special effects that I have seen.  Each frog landed with a satisfying "Plop!" right on the ground or on a car or on William H. Macy's face.  Good movie, go see it.  End of first entry.

    Today, well right now it's 1:04 and 37 seconds.  So it still counts.  I went out with a couple of friends-- Lisa, Nina and Josh.  First we couldn't decide what to do so, we went over to Lisa's house and decided to go bowling.  For some reason, I thought that the plan was to make our own movie so I only took $5.  I need to pay Nina back--2 dolla.  I was happy because I could show off my Princeton Review Shirt.  It made my day.  We then all went bowling.  It was hot and muggy.  Inside, it was cool, neon and smoky.  I always lose my voice whenever I breathe in a lot of smoke.  Weird huh?  Anyways, I completely sucked the big one in my first game.  The game cost $28 and we got lane 28. It was pretty weird, you could even say it was unfrogettable. I got like a seventy something.  Lisa on the other hand was tearing it up!  I swear she had some sort of calculations going in her head because she placed the ball perfectly every time.  I think she even got a 7-10 split. Then just out of the blue, I created the patented "Trevor's Method" where you bowl for accuracy and not for power.  Then all of the sudden, I become this masterful bowler.  I was getting either strikes or spares.  I just blew everyone away.  Then everyone started using my patented method even though it was patented and they didn't ask me for my permission to use it.  But that's OK.  I'm a nice guy. I ended up winning by about 100 points.  No, I was exaggerating--maybe just 99 points.  At the end, I could tell that Lisa was impressed with my score because she said "Trevor, I'm impressed with your score."  There were also a couple of fifth graders that Lisa was eyeing throughout the night.  It was funny watching them try to act cool and dance.  They also sucked at bowling.  Josh however didn't suck at bowling--He tried to hit the gutters.  We stopped bowling when the light turned off.  

    We then decided to have fun with the video camera.  I filmed Lisa's face with night vision and her face was kinda hypnotic looking.  Very weird.  Then I came up with the idea (I come up with a lot of stuff) of filming our entire endeavor in Kroger. (I later found out that it was illegal) By the way, their Oscar Meyer Hot Dogs with the ingredient: "flavor" costs 2.99 for and 8-pack.  We then asked Mrs. Butterworth to tell us how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop and she told us to ask Mr. Owl.  The answer is Thrrrrree.  Then we interviewed and employee.  He had an earing.  He also works as a janitor at U of M at the Psych department.  Then we had a little fun in the freezer isle.  It was fun. Lisa fit in the freezer.  I tried to fit but the awkward position gave my leg a motha of a cramp.  So I walked it off.  Then we interviewed a check out lady.  She was a little shady.  We asked about Tom.  We found out he goes to the bathroom unannounced.  They should have a rule against that.  Anyways, the fuzz(five-oh, pig, cop, security guard) told us that it was illegal to film in a store because they were afraid that we would tell people about the prices.  Wait a sec--Hey, isn't that what they do when they advertise in the newspaper? (rhetorical question)  So we left feeling rebellious and eating pixie sticks that Josh bought.  I like the blue ones.  Then we talked about the meaning of life.  Exodus 8:2.

Tuesday, August 8, 2000

    Hey! Look! It's Tuesday, August 8,  2000!  8:2!!!  Today hasn't been too eventful yet.  I like my car.  It is red.  It goes "ZOOM!  ZOOM!"  Anyways, going to Princeton Review is a complete drag.  Tomorrow, I get to study the SAT from 9am to 5pm.  Can I get a hell yea!!??  Hey, at least I get to drive there in my RED Dodge Stealth.  I'm going to make an oldies CD so if anyone has any song recommendations for me then e-mail me.  It's going to be money, just like my website.  Just for those of you who don't know, "money" is the catch phrase in the movie "Swingers."  It means cool, or something like cool.  Nothing really funny happened today so I'll just tell you a true story that happened to me the first day I volunteered at the U of M Hospital.  It's funny.  Trust me.

    It was the first day of volunteering at the U of M hospital.  I didn't know what to do so I asked another volunteer what I should do.  So she told me to just walk around the floor and usually nurse or something will see you and give you something to do.  So I do exactly that and then suddenly, a nurse saw me and asked me if I wanted to hold a baby for a little while while she checked on other patients.  So I agreed.  She told me that she just fed the baby and all I had to do was hold the baby until she checked up on her other patients.  So I seated myself into a rocking chair and she handed me the baby and left.  After about a minute or two, after the nurse left, the baby suddenly began convulsing in my arms.  So I getting pretty scared and I start thinking what would happen to me if the baby died or something.  After my thinking, which was about a minute later, the baby was still convulsing.  At this point I'm thinking that the baby is having a seizure.  Then I remembered how there are these nurse call things in the room.  I find the thing and press it about 100 times.  A second or two later, the nurse comes running in and asks me what was going on.  Then I was like "Oh my god!  I think this baby is having a seizure!"  She looks at me, then looks at the baby, then looks back at me and start laughing.  Now I'm confused as HELL!  After she stops laughing, which takes about--forever, she finally tells me that the baby just had the hiccups.  So yep, I was embarrassed as  HELL.

THE END

    Damn!  Missed it again!  I keep on missing those 39 cent hamburger days at McDonalds.  Yes, I sometimes am cheap.  I get it from my parents.  I also missed Survivor.  I hope Big Fat Rich gets kicked off of the island.  I bet Rich smells worse than everybody else because he's mean.  Well, the past couple of days have been exciting, but you people don't have to know why.  Oh yea, wayyyyyyyy back in middle school or something I wrote a limerick about Homer Simpson.  I found it when I cleaned my room.  It goes like this:

Remember people, I wrote this when I was in Middle School so don't e-mail me on how much it sucks.  E-mail me and tell me how much you like it and tell me if you want to see more of my work on my website.  You know what else sucks?  My car's CD player basically broke.  Now I have to press play about 100 times before it plays the stupid CD.  It's probably because of my stupid dirt road which has a bunch of really bumpy areas which I drove through.  I still have to take care of some School obligations.  Hmmm.  Getting sleepy.  Bye-Bye.

Friday, August 10, 2000

    Today, after Princeton Review was finished, I kinda fucked with their computers a little.  I made my homepage the default website that the programs go to when it starts up.  Now I'll get a little more traffic.  It is pretty sneaky but hey, what can I say?  I could do a Happy Gilmore and start rhyming but I'm not going to.  Oh yea, I also had to go to the girl's bathroom at Princeton Review because well, somebody stole the mens room key.  I also found out that they locked the bathrooms because when it was unlocked, homeless people lived in there.  Very weird.  Well that's it.

    School just started and I hate it already!  I can't wait for summer!  Well, this year, the things I'm looking forward to are winter vacation, mid-winter break, spring break (Senior Trip!) and possibly Prom.  I say possibly because if I don't get a date...well..it's going to suck.  Anyways, downtown is livening up because school's starting for U of M.  Thursday night was kind of bittersweet.  The "sweet" part was because I saw all the breasts, all the ass, and all the legs I could handle in a very short period of time.  The density of FINE women in the downtown area is increasing as it nears the start of the U of M school year, the undergrad anyways.  Another cool thing that happened to me is that some hot girl gave me the initial look over, then gave me a second look over, well at least that's what my friends said.  There could be 3 possible explanations for this. 1) She thought "Damn!  That guy looks good." 2) She thought "Damn! That guy's hair is really black!" 3) She thought "Damn!  That guy looks like a freak!" Wishful thinking makes me want it to be 100% explanation 1.  But realistically speaking, it is probably a combination of 1 & 2 and a dash of 3 .  Probably 63.79% (2), 36.21% (1), and .0001% (3).  But I didn't do anything about it because I have no balls.  I guess that was part of the bitter part.  In addition, I was with a couple of younger looking guys, no offense to any of them, although another one of my friends looked older.  So that was cool...I guess.  If there are any girls that are reading this, don't get the wrong idea about me.  I'm not some kind of weirdo or anything, I'm just a normal guy who has hormones and appreciates beauty when he sees it.  Shit.  That didn't sound good did it? Ummm...I'm going to stop now...

    Yes, I was drunk yesterday when I wrote the last 3-4 lines of the entry. 

Tuesday, September 4, 2000

    It constitutes as Tuesday because it was like 12:15 a.m. or something like thatI got stung by a stupid, shit, dumbass, bitch-ho, skanktified, fuckin' yellow and black, mofo hornet.  I think it was a hornet.  It was not a bee 'cuz it didn't leave a stinger.  It had the same colors as a bee but it didn't have hairs on its ass, like bees do.  My finger swelled up a shit load.  I even took pictures of it.  It hurt. BAD.  It was the first time I've ever gotten stung in my life.   OUCH.  I'll put up the pictures later, when I get them developed.  I hate bees, wasps, hornets, jellyfish, stingrays, and mosquitoes. I don't like things that sting.  It hurts.  Homework time.

    Ok...I read some of the stuff that I wrote in the past.  Some of it was funny and some of it was stupid and just plain sad.  Ok... on to business.  Well a lot has happened since September 4.  Umm...let me see...Just this morning, I found out that my U of M application got deferred that ruined my whole entire day.  I was reading the thing on the way to school...which isn't too safe.  I don't recommend it.  I got 2 beeps.  Anyways, now I have to keep my grades up, and I may have to wait until April to find out!  By the way, I HATE WAITING!!!!  Anyways, because of this, I was basically a bitch to everyone.  I kinda feel bad.  The worst was when I was in humanities seminar when some people decided that the topic of how easy it was to get into U of M was good.  So they were pissing the F*uck out of me!!!  But some of my friends tried to cheer me up...  It helped a little until I got to calc...I found out that I got a D- on the last quiz!  That made things even worse!!!!  Arrg!!!!  Then I got a hug from one of my friends which helped soooooo much... I never knew how much a hug can help!  Their great!  Now that I think of it, I could use a message too.  Ok, enough on that topic...I finally took my ACT's so now I can do stuff on the weekends...No wait a sec, that's right, my parents made a stupid rule that I can only go out once a week.  Oh yea, now going out on weekends is hard as hell because hockey season started and the games are what other times than Friday and Saturday nights!!!  Oh yea, and in the past 2 days, I've had 4 tests...that's 2 tests a day...I had to do MAD studying.  Oh, and it didn't help too much for the Humanities Art test that for the 3 hours that I got together with my study group, we sat and talked about life and etc. for 2 of those 3 hours.  Hmm, what else has happened...This thing is becoming a sort of Diary/ Therapy thing for me.  I decided that I wanted to start acting and stuff after I saw Guy and Dolls put on by Pioneer's Theater Guild.  I was very impressed with the quality of the show and it was very excellent.  What made it even better was that my friends were in it...either working tech ore actually in the Musical.  Now after seeing it, 2 songs are in my head...A Bushel and a Peck and Luck be a Lady tonight.  I'm going to get into acting when student productions begin...I can't wait!  I've always wanted to act...I just wasn't good at memorizing things...so I decided that I will be one of those people who are in the background who "pretend talk."  That way I can satiate my desire to be an actor without memorizing any lines.  I've also me a cool new person...this girl named Meghann.  I've never seen "megan" spelled like that...but it's cool and very unique.  Oh, I just got some breath fresheners that are really, really cool but taste like crap!  They're these thin squares of transparent "paper" and when you put them inside your mouth, they melt and they are REALLY, REALLY STRONG!!! Too bad they taste horrible, or I would actually buy some.  Well, I guess that's about it for today.  Time for sleep.  I love you, a bushel and peck, a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck, a hug around the neck and a barrel and a heap, a barrel and a heap and I'm talkin' in my sleep...

Saturday, November 25, 2000

    Ok...well, thanksgiving is over now...that was the day before yesterday.  It was ok...we went to a Chinese Restaurant instead of eating turkey.  Also for the past 2 days I've been eating pizza!  Stuffed crust, Supreme, pepperoni...ARRRRGGGG!  I'm about to throw up if I see another pizza!  Anyways I saw 4 movies this weekend.  I almost never see more than one a weekend so it was cool.  The movies I saw were Gladiator, Unbreakable, Frequency and Fight Club.  I saw Fight Club again on DVD cuz I bought the Damn thing...It's one of 2 DVD's in my collection, the other being the Matrix.  Fight Club is the best DVD EVER!  It's so awesome...It's a 2 DVD set...the first is the movie and the commentaries and the seconds is the Supplementary stuff....I saw Gladiator for the first time...now it's in my top 10.  Unbreakable was good but not as good as the 4 star Sixth Sense...I'd only give it 3 stars.  Now Frequency is one of those really trippy movies where you can't think about the movie too much...cuz if you do...you might double over from the mental exhaustion.  Oh yea...I'm going to buy a watch...it is a sweet watch because it runs on light...yes folks that's right...it runs on light.  So no need to recharge batteries or anything just hold it up to the sun and it recharges!  I'm also going to get a new system for my stealth.  My parents said that they would pitch in to buy me a system...I can't wait...Another thing that's cool is that my pen pal wrote me back after about ummm...half a year...Which was totally unexpected because after someone doesn't write back for that long, their either dead, or forgot about you.  I though the latter...but I guess it wasn't the case.  It turns out she lost my letter or something...well, I'm going to sign out because I smell turkey!!!MMMMM
