I'm starting an interesting series of posts

Ok, so here's the idea (if I can keep posting long enough for it to actually come to being).  I'm going to look at people's descriptions of themselves on facebook and do a direct comparison so I can see how closely (or distantly) I resemble my peers (I know, this sounds kinda stupid, but it will all come into focus).  The first to be victim of my comparison is Stephen Fisk.

Don't spend money on music
Entertainment is good stuff
I am extremely organized in an erractically disorganized fashion
I'm not that keen on poetry
never been a music/movie/lit snob/geek
favorite color: blue (always)
I hold on to people too much
I love being able to communicate easily
I never wear a jacket
Blood is always very important
I hate the south
sleep is worthless unless it is beside the one you love
I don't know delilo or beckett
I speak before I think
I do miss piano
I'm good at managing money I don't have yet
I have great luck
I'm good at cooking especially with working with whatever's available
Heaven will be indescribable

It's been way too long since I posted.  Lots of things have happened, but not really much of any significance..............that's a little bit sad isn't it...Anyways, it would take too long to post my comic acquisitions, but there's one that I was particularly excited about that I will post on here: 

I know it's big, but I'm gonna leave it like that, lol because this was a nice acquisition.  It was an early V-day gift from my lovely and wonderful girlfriend, Danica Layne (pictured for your convenience in the upper-left hand corner of the page ;)   Now here's an interesting story that related to Danica.  Well, see I was at her grandparents (note that) church, one of those country churches where it's extremely disorganized, but very friendly.  Anyways, she was singing that night and had gotten up to do so when her sound stuff didn't work.  She was going through and thanking her family, but then got to me, and wasn't sure what to "call" me.  Of course Bethany (God bless her) was whispering (very loudly, I might add) "fiancee" and I was just kinda sitting there and so Danica (God bless her) says, "Oh yeah, this is Jason, my fiancee or whatever."  Isn't that just lovely?  Well, heaven knows I can't afford that little bit of metal and carbon; so, nothing's official, but "fiancee or whatever?"  HMPH!  Well, she just explained that boyfriend was just too informal, but fiancee wasn't right either; so, the best she could do was "fiancee or whatever." Sigh, I must love her though.

Well, my parents are here today for the LSU (slaughter) game.  I am currently sitting in my 8:00 class waiting for my professor who is currently 20 minutes late.  I would leave, but he sent a lackey here to tell us he would be here in 5 or 10 minutes...what are we interns here waiting for the snobby exec??  I mean, technically aren't we paying his salary!?!?! Well, us and the state, and are we or are we not citizens of the state!? Well...I mean, my parents are considering I don't exactly pay taxes yet...but I am a future rising upcoming citizen of the state. Just not for very long because I'm moving out of state as soon as I graduate.  Probably to Boston (MIT) or Pittsburg (Carnegie Mellon); maybe to SF (Stanford) or lower CA (CalTech).  Those are my four prospective schools at this point; what? so I have high expectations, but I don't see why I shouldn't be able to do it, Honors student with hopefully some research experience next year or semester.  I will also (hopefully !!!) have my 40-page thesis published in some scientific journal.  As long as I keep my grades up, I should get into any school I want.  However, I am still a student at Ole Miss, not exactly the most prestigious of undergrad schools.  Oh well, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.  Professor just walked in.  No apology, dumb bastard.  He was over 25 minutes late! The least he could do was say sorry for being late....grr....  Oh well, I haven't really cared for him all semester *sigh*.  I'm really sorry about the game I'm currently playing here.  I have no excuses for myself except that I didn't play it back when it came out because it was overhyped and I didn't associate with that, but now, I can appreciate it for what is really is, which is a great game, I mean it's a good one that takes alot of strategy and skill to play, it's just all the other stuff (card game, tv show, movies, t-shirts, crap, crap, crap) that made it really suck, I have no shame, it's a good game, and I appreciate it. So THERE, I don't care what you think .

Hello all.  So, I went home this weekend.  I actually went home on Thursday because I didn't have much going on in class on Friday anyway and I would've been bored here, lol.  However, I am pretty concerned with myself from skipping too much class ><.  I've got almost all A's right now, but I feel that I may be slipping here at the end.  That stinks because I'm getting so tired of school this semester.  It's just draining my energy.  I'm so spread out with school.  Last year I was able to pack school into certain parts of the day and whatever else into the rest.  Now, it's just like, here's a class, there's a class, everywhere a class class and here's some homework, there's a program, everywhere a thing to do!  It just sucks.  Oh well, if I can finish this semester with around a 3.8 again, I'll be happy, just gotta keep it above 3.5 to keep my scholarships(shouldn't be a problem ^^).  Danica's coming up here this weekend so I don't have to drive!  She's riding up with Kayla's parents so she doesn't have to drive either!  Everybody wins!  Sorry, I'll stop with the !'s.  Anyway, It's good to be back, more later when I don't have labs to do.

Today's comic book acquisitions:
Megaman #1Megaman#2Megaman#3Megaman#4Republic#78      TMNT#5

Mom came to town today, we got a bite, it was nice and her lifelong friend/interior designer came too so we all went and got sushi and coffee.  My mother says that I'm not social enough, but we all know that the veracity of that statement lacks real world application (last statment = B.S.).  The fact is that I don't really care whether I'm social or not.  If I'm happy, then that's all that matters.  If I get lonely, I have people to message and I do hang out with folks (Daniel, Landon, Ryan, Jim((sometimes...)) ) during the week when they're available.  It just sucks that people work and I'm usually so busy with homework that it's impossible to redezvous with anyone because they have HW and work, etc.  Oh well, the fact is that I am currently a self-actualized individual who is fine by himself (gosh I can't wait for Danica to get up here next year).  I think my mom's gonna let me stay in her condo next year , I'm practically staying there now, but next year it'll be tons of fun actually living there!  All-in-all, next year will be much better than this.  Only a few more months to go .  Anyways, since I've just started this blog up again, I have to edit all my profile stuff, so this is over for now.  FFXI and CoH character info coming along with current reads and DVD's.  So, stay tuned!
