I use motor oil and broken glass as aftershave!

WOW!

I have survived so far, the world is finally coming back to a normal pace and I am pretty happy.

Got my classes picked for next quarter and I am really excited for it.

If the school can get my FA kicked in I am planning on staying over the summer and doing summer classes so I can finish up earlier.

My new room mate does not understand rap music at 3 am in the morning is not how I like to wake up other than that the new room is hawt.

I am currently in the process of hunting a job down with the fireceness equal to a lion jumping a gazelle!

I needs the monies badly cause I am a poor poor poor! college student.

Oh god running out of stuff to blab about on this thing....

OH YEAH I know by the time you read this November second will have passed and thank god. I hate politics I think they're the bane of this country.

My email is filled with so many VOTE or DO THIS FOR YOUR COUNTRY bull shit that I am going to choke.

I mean really if you spam my email with tons of emails to do something then I am most likely going to hit the select all and delete key !

Jesus H Christ!

So I am exactly twenty two words shy of being two hundred and fifty words on this blog post which is just dandy.

DID U C WHAT I DID THAR?!?!

Toodles!

The house of the...wait what was it again?

Aiechiwawa its almost the end of the month and I am glad to put this month behind me in way I cannot describe.

I think is some way that this was a semi test of my willpower and drive to do good in life and I guess I came out with flying colors?

Not everything has been tidy as I would like it SPSU some how lost my transcripts but, I have already made the phone calls to get them re sent to SPSU.

Also 30 minutes outside of SPSU this Saturday my car went ka put. Battery was deader then a door nail...thankfully that was all it was.

I finally am moved in completely to my new room and its fan friggin tastic.

It is completely re organized and pimped out to the best of my ability. Gota try and get a RA job so I can just live here for the summer cause well I love it down around this area.

Shit is always going on and everyone that I know back from my home town has moved onto other things. I guess its time for me to finally do the same.

In a weird retrospect I fount a person who is 32 living in the dorms and finishing his degree so I guess being 23 and in college is not so bad?

Well I think tonight I am going to go to bed quite early for the sheer fact I am exhausted.

I have nothing left to do for now just some tests to study for.

So in the end...

Toodles

And it all falls down again....

So I just got the phone call that my Grandpa is falling fast...

I am about to start packing and make another wayward trip back to my hokey poke hometown and hopfully make it back in time before he goes..

I just have to sort these thoughts out before I do go because I am so abstract and disorganized at the moment.

I really ask myself is this a sign from God that I shouldn't be in college?

So far my first year at SPSU has been a complete total and utter nightmare.

From horrible math teacher, finanical aid starting all kinds of hell, shitty room mate, bed bugs, throwing away a lot of my personal property, and now a possible loss of one of my favorite family members.

Serioulsy, can a white man get a break?

Still through it all I have straight A's, near perfect attendance, and an set nerves formed of adamantium.

Its almost like a coy and cold touch to my conscience the amount of things that have gone on. I hate headaches and I hate disruption of the natural order of things. Most people would love this as an excuse to get out of class but, I hate it. I actually enjoy class for the most part and I want to learn and achieve new heights of intelligence and knowledge.

I am truly teetering on the edge right now, I have not yet lost faith in myself or my abilities.

I just really want a small break, a small miniscule amount of time to kick back and relax for a few moments. A reprieve if you will from this hurricane and turmoil that has become my life.

I guess you can take the good with the bad and look at this as a way of becoming stronger, its always darkest before dawn you know !

Is this god preparing me for the real world? Its almost a coy though, God, that is...because I usually do not believe in him but, is this some type of test from some higher power to see how far my nerves and will power can go?

I would really love to have an answer for all of this maelstrom of emotions, stress, xannax, and my sanity.

I am going to end this now so I can get ready to take one of the longest drives in my life..and I will end it with a proverb.....

"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity."

Yes this email made the blog....

This is Matthew King I am informing you I missed class today because I was a victim of bed bugs. I was moved out last week, moved back in this week and moved back in the span of 24 hours to a new mandatory room.

In the span of this time I have washed EVERYTHING I own twice.

I am currently going on 31 hours with no sleep.

I have a doctors excuse for your class, if you're wondering why I had to go there well....

To begin I had to move out, so I grabbed everything I could and left for home seeing as we didn't have class last week, washed EVERYTHING, then came to find out the bastards had infested my Mother's room from the last time I visited which was 2 weeks ago. We went on a rampant bed bug genocide.

We completely cleaned my house and sprayed inspecticide and washed EVERYTHING again....

Well I come back to SPSU Monday, get EVERYTHING moved back in at night and sit down in my office chair to watch some netflix at which point I feel something crawling on my arm....

The wonderful exterminators who took 5 days to treat my room did not treat my office chair, 150 dollar value. Fury ensued...

At this point I am furious. I proceed to email housing and I am awoken at 10 am by the Housing Director and the exterminators long story short I am being moved to a completely diffrent room..... and I have to wash everything again. I also recieve a phone call that my Grandpa is going into respirtory failure...so what a great day!

After class I begin moving stuff and notice my night stand/tv stand has a bug on it, I kill it and do a quick scout...its covered...I throw it away to...

I decide to start checking everything...

My tv had to go along with my collection of Dungeons And Dragons rule books (about 200-250 dollars lost on top of the office chair)

I finally get everything finished and by this point my nerves are shot...its 9 am and I still havent slept I inform housing of the new lost property and go see the nurse who informs me to go see a doctor for the bites and she has given me some "Happy Pills" and some other medications to treat the bites.

I am so sorry I went on a rant there but you have no idea how much bull shit ( please excuse the french) this has been, please let me know if there is ANYTHING I need to make up.

I also apologize for the lateness of this email....I just got internet working in my new room.

Sincerely,

Matthew King

PS: Housing is not going to reimburse me for any of my stuff....

PSS: This might turn into a blog post at the length of the rambling...

Quarantine and anger

So this past Tuseday night. Me and my room mate discovered that we do not have chiggers but, bed bugs.

These little bastards have swarmed both our matresses and rooms.

So he ended up sleeping on the lobby and I ended up in the J building sleeping on the couch. They have now such quartined our room and going through the process of killing the little grubby bastards.

Now I decided to come home instead of staying down there just to find out that my parents have them from the last time I visited.

The little bastards spread like wildfire all over the place.

Through some more investigating it turns out they came from a certain friend of mine back at home who was so kind to let me know he had them after the fact I am eaten up by the bastards.

Right now I am so infuriated I could punch a hole through a wall in a tank at the moment.

Whats even worse is the bed bugs are near resistant to most pesticides and other conventional forms of destruction.

The most guranteed way to kill the bastards is heat. Lots of heat. That is why I have helped my parents buy a steamer and an assormtment of bed bug killers.

We asked are exterminator how much it would cost to kill them and well I dont like four figure prices.

I end this blog now as I prepare to go to home depot and buy stock in the insecticide isle. There is so much anger right now I can't describe it.

Toodles.

If, M = Midterms, S= Stress, and I= Insanity...

My world history midterm is turning into such an intense and long study session which might end up in me losing part of my sanity.

122 terms along with an essay question to research for the thing.

I feel like I am being driven by a slave driver.

See I am a perfectionist to a fault. Especially and I do mean ESPECIALLY at tests.

This one is a test of my willpower, physical prowess at staying awake and my ability to fill my brain with so much information its going to implode on its self and create a vacuum to Cthulu!

Rabble rabble rabble.

Moving on into more fun and entertaining categories.

I got to play the Force Unleashed 2 demo today. This is the sequel to the highest selling Star Wars game ever made. The demo improves so greatly on the bugs and problems of the first one and adds so much more flavor to the title.

For one they finally added dismemberment. When you cut something with a light saber that limb should fly off not stay attached! Well while playing the limbo I saw more limbs fly off then in a Slasher film.

They also ironed out the controls to a easier to handle layout which improves game play and ease of use greatly from what it used to be.

There is also a slew of new force powers to use to toss, "Cook", and mind control your enemies off random cliffs into oblivion.

I am going to cut this short because I need sleep.

Graphical design and the waffle house hashbrowns.

Wow 2 posts in a week for once, omg the excitement.

I had my radio show tonight. Me and Jason Thomas do it on Friday nights. I really love it and it's a TON of fun.

We had a good show tonight and we decided to go to waffle house tonight to celebrate which was amazing and awesome. Even though tomorrow I am going to regret it very very bad.

At the mention of graphical design I have been volunteered by the dictatorship that is my Game Design group to design the logos for our board game which so far is coming along very nicely.

Felt good to use that old creative muscle again.

I gota also go on a rant for a minute.

The lack of motivation in this school amazes me.

I mean serioulsy I rarely see if anyone in Hornet studies minus my study group and a few other people. Hell my room mate has already auto failed a class for missing too many days.

Why waste your time and completely screw your education if your not going to try. I stood up tell like 10 am last night and still made it to class !

The kids at this school scream of apathy so bad. Why such depression when it comes to the fact that this is leading to the rest of your life. I dicked around at my old college and learnt my damn lesson.

Blargh, I apologize if this post is random and mis-guided. I decided to have a few drinks lol!

I am going to drunkedly wonder down stairs now and enjoy one last smoke before sleep!

Toodles

Oh hey there its 5:11 am and I have class in a few hours.

As told by my English teacher I need to stop slacking on my blog posts.

Here I am fulfilling that process in a weary dream like state at this moment in time.

Today ironically enough was going to be the day I was going to actually catch up on sleep but, I went shopping at Wal Mart and bought some cleaning supplies to clean my room for inspections next week.

When I got back I decided to start the decontamination process of my dorm room.

Now the reason I chose to use such a big word is that my room mate is a slob. I mean complete utter slob. Jabba the hut would get along great with this guy. His room smells like a hobo that has been drug through a sewage drain in Haiti.

Pretty nasty, now due to this face we now have Chiggers. See he went camping a few weeks ago and still hasn't washed his clothes from them. Needles to say our dorm room is infested with them now.

I have bought some Off, Anti-Flea spray (Kills Chiggers just the same) and some Sulfur Powder (they cannot stand the stuff).

Hopefully this war effort reaches a high point because this is stupid. I have already basically forced my room mate to wash the clothes in question multiple times and I am hoping this takes care of the problem.

Well I have Die Hard 2 playing over on my tv at the moment thanks to netflix which is an amazing service if you have never used it and my bed is looking very tempting at the moment.

Toodles.

Road trips!

Took an amazing road trip this weekend with my friend Zack.

Friday night after my radio show we headed out to my home town.

We left at 11 and made it about 1 am, went to my friends house and played some D&D which was very interesting experience to say the least.

Then we headed to IHOP and had a great filling meal of cholestoral enhancing goodness.

Finally we made it back to my house and promptly collapsed into a comatose state.

The next day we woke up and headed to McKays which is a gigantic used book/cd/dvd/video game store wt is not doing so well and is on his last leg of life so I came to visit him and some assorted family members.

We also got to eat hands down the best meal I have had in months. A good old fashioned home cooked southern meal and the best kicker my mom made her famous peach cobbler which is just insanely good.

I saw my grandpa for a little while and he is doing very well for his condition. Its just a matter of time before he goes though according to the doctors. here you can trade in you old books movies etc. and get credit to use in the store.

We went nuts in there. Zack ended up getting 180 trade in and I got about 30 (I only took an old text book zack had boxes) We scoured that place and came out like bandits.

Afterwards I had to go visit some family and we headed to my grand parents. My grand father could go at any moment according to the doctors.

Well thats all I have for now I need to do laundry and some CGDD work so toodles!
