So I graduated basic training after 5 months. Yay!

I phase up to II in two days. Yay!

Man. 5 months of basic training is more than enough to jade someone beyond recognition.

I wonder how all the people I left behind and who left me behind are doing?

Amanda's in California!

2006-03-23T00:27:34Z

WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Infinite love and congratulations to her :) :) :)

Jesus.

Oh man. Two months. I'm starting to get a little nervous.

Oh man.

2006-01-22T06:04:54Z

I hope Amanda calls me tomorrow. I'm scared without her.

Woe is me!

2006-01-10T03:32:00Z

Amanda leaves for basic training tomorrow. I just got to talk to her for the last time for at least a week tonight.

I am very sad.

Sandwiches

2005-01-28T17:26:45Z

Four inches thick of pure wheat, mayonnaise, roast beef, swiss, onions, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, lettuce, mayonnaise and wheat awesomeness. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Delicious.

That's a lot of rain.

2005-01-26T19:30:40Z

We've already surpassed our yearly average rainfall of approximately 8 inches this year. It's not even the end of January yet. Way cool.

Beauty is slowly rotting away.

2005-01-24T23:34:01Z

When human error is punished too severely, and when too many examples of this are made, then humans become less than human. They become machines. They lose their ability to express themselves. Why would anyone want to destroy the most beautiful gift someone can give? Business entrepreneurs know the answer. When free thinking is punished, people become efficient. They may be sheep, but those sheep can make a mean Whopper. I was reminded of my days as a Whopperjackhut kid by my old nametag. I thought of Joe’s methods of running the place, and I realized that no matter how efficient his employees may have been (they weren’t really, but that's not the point), he still killed their most beautiful contribution to society from the moment they entered the door to the moment they left. What if Joe was the government? What if free thinking was punished in every day life? If you’ll take a quick glance around you, you’ll know that the ultimate result has been gaining ground. Bleeping out swear words in movies, edited versions of CDs and the banning of some literature is only the beginning. Soon creativity will fade away and movies, music and books will all die. That’s not the world I want to live in. Human expression is beautiful, and those which seek to destroy everyone’s most precious gift need to realize what they’re doing before time runs out.

First day on the job!

2005-01-06T03:34:52Z

Man, the first day is always great. It basically consists of sitting around and not knowing what to do. Luckily, all of the people are nice, and unlike at Burger King, all of the people that I worked with didn't quit today. Yay! This is going to be a pretty cool job I think.

HOYL CARP RIAN!!!

This has been the 18th consecutive hour of rain. That's a lot of water that fell out of the sky. I hope it doesn't start to rain in Flagstaff because that means all of the snow up there will melt, and there will definately be flooding down in this area (The Verde Valley and Sedona).

Instrumenting

2005-01-02T05:41:46Z

I got my guitar from my dad's house, and I played it for a while today. Man I love playing, so it's not such a terrible thing that I'm so horrible at it. I'll get better eventually.

I also have a job, woo!!!!!!!!!!

New Year's Day is coming

2004-12-31T16:55:48Z

Ahh, New Year's Day. It's just exactly what it says it is: The new year. What's so exciting about a new year? Not a whole lot. However, it is supposed to be time that you spend with your friends and family. The real joy in a new year comes from being with those you love and those who love you. I just hope that this year's turnout isn't a prediction of the year to come.

Have fun with your friends and family folks.

Hey, if you're bored, then give me a call because I am too.

Goals...? Perhaps.

2004-12-29T23:55:30Z

Jesus God I have a goal! Job interview at 3:30pm tomorrow. Thank you Pizza Hut!

On the more truthful side: This took way too long, and I am an idiot.

Movies

2004-12-22T07:54:14Z

I think I've finally figured out why I like movies. It involves two things: What the movie teaches me and the fictional story in the movie. I can like a movie if only one of the requirements is filled, but a movie is not truly spectacular unless it teaches me something new or impressive, and its story is cool and fits well with what it teaches me.

A glitch in the Universe's physics engine.

2004-12-20T02:58:27Z

I'm not a mathematical person. It's very hard for me to calculate numbers effectively, plus I'm lazy, so have trouble sitting down and thinking about math. I have little to no patience when it comes to dealing with numbers. This has always prevented me from wanting to take a physics class, and it will probably continue to be that way. However, just because I've had no professional instruction on the field of physics, that doesn't mean that I don't have at least a very basic understanding of the forces governing the realm so all-encompassing that I can't even begin to ponder the implications of such an area (that we all just so happen to be a part of[See 'Universe'])

Sometimes I think about things like this: Is it entirely impossible to witness a glitch in the physical forces that control our universe? Keep in mind that I've never seen something like this, I don't think that I may have seen this, and I don't claim to have seen it. I simply wonder about the wonders of physics, and if they could ever mess up(I mean something different than what I think you're thinking, and I'll explain later.)

I started thinking about this when I was skipping rocks across the river. I was comparing it to Tribes: Vengeance (which seems a little geekboyish, and it may be, but no matter.) because in Tribes, skiing very quickly and hitting a pool of water at a shallow angle will allow you to skip across the surface of the water. Since Tribes is a videogame, glitches are common, and that's exactly what this is: Skiing across the surface of the water without skipping and launching, just sliding across the surface. What I'm wondering is that if it's totally impossible for something of that nature (a glitch) to happen in real life.

I speak of a balance in physics so perfect that (here's an example) a rock, when projected towards the water, will not actually skip, but instead use the forces of things beyond human comprehension to do something seemingly impossible like sliding across the surface rather than actually skipping.

Something like that is possible in Tribes because being a piece of software, it's based on data, which is based on math. This makes me think of how our own world works. Are physics actually mathematically calculable? Or are they something different all together?

This is where it gets extremely difficult for me to explain, so try to bear with me. I have some sort of idea about how physics may be calculated. That, however, is just the thing: Physics can not be calculated. Even 1*10(to the negative infinity power) is still infinity times bigger than 0. I think physics is only actually "calculable" when all of what's between 1*10(to the negative infinity power) and 0 is used. This means that numbers can never accurately describe the forces of physics, which in turn means that physics can never actually be accurately calculated.

If physics aren't calculated with numbers, then a perfect balance is impossible.
That sucks, because my uneducated theory won't allow for a glitch (or perfect balance, if you'd prefer) to occur.

Oh well. A single physics course can probably disprove all of this, but it's fun to think about anyway.

Frightening

2004-12-11T23:08:16Z

That would be weird if you were just a brain, and all you could do was think. That would suck.

Life and goals.

2004-12-03T21:35:47Z

I think I've finally gotten an idea about what I should do.

Over the next two years, I'm going to work and take community college classes. A simple, yet effective lifestyle.

After that, I'm going to consider joining the military. By then the 'war on terrorism' should have died down some, once again making it safe to enlist. I'm considering staying for 3 or 4 years.

In about 6 years, I should be out of the military with educational benefits. This will make college easier to pay for.

Hooray goals.

I learned something new.

2004-12-02T17:16:12Z

I learned how to roll a joint. I did it all by myself! They rock too.

An interesting blog test.

You Are a New School Democrat

You like partying and politics - and are likely to be young and affluent.

You're less religious, traditional, and uptight than most Democrats.

Smoking pot, homosexuality, and gambling are all okay in your book.

You prefer that the government help people take care of themselves.

What political persuasion are you?
