So, I haven’t posted anything here for a while, but I am still here. “Life has been busy,” and all that jazz that people tell you to explain why they haven’t done what they should. Anywho, here’s some quick updates on my life, because you all really care.
This was a triumph. I’m making a note here, HUGE SUCCESS.
It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Graduation went pretty well. As the treasurer of my class I got to be one of the first ones in line and sit in the front row (Yay!). As the treasurer of my class, I was informed near the end that I had to make a quick speech thaking our superintendent, who is retiring this year (Yay. Improv.). I actually manged to pull it of though, so I’m happy.
And i am now realizing that I am going to miss high school because of all the cool people there I didn’t know well enough. Well, that’s okay, MIT is soon!
Aperture Science. We do what we must, because we can.
For the good of all of us, except the ones who are dead.
I’ve been working full time at Textron Defense Systems in Wilmington, on autonomous robotic systems. I get to make robots run aound and crash into walls — except, I don’t actually make them do it. The robots do this all by themselves.
I get paid to watch little silver critters do do cool things. Sweet.
But there’s no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying ’till you run out of cake.
I had some cake yesterday. It was an explosion of flavor in my mouth.
And the Science gets done.
I saw WALL-E last week. I’m too lazy to write a review right now, but I must say that it is awesome. Probably my favorite pixar character of all time, a wonderful plot that succeeds with barely any dialogue, cute at all the right times and full of social commentary. Pixar = WIN.
On the subject of WALL-E, my aunt got me a posable mini one:
Yes, that is my desktop background behind him.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
My class at high school has decided that we are now having a nerf war. We formed teams of two and are attempting to “kill” each other anywhere and anytime except for at work or at church.
My teammate, Tom, has already been eliminated due to a subtle sneak attack. Those bastards. I am going to teach them the meaning of pain.
THIS IS FOR WHAT YOU DID TO TOM!!!! *headshot*
Woah, sorry, got a little carried away there. Anyways, I have my own personal nerf gun (A Recon CS-6) and I borrowed a rocket launcher from Tom. All that remains is the execution of my final plan… Mwahahaha.
[…rest of the song…]
…and believe me I am still alive.
I’m doing science and I’m still alive. I feel fantastic and I’m still alive.
While your dying ill be still alive. And when your dead I will be still alive.
Still alive.
Still alive…
I was originally going to do something for every part of the song, and then I realized how immense of a job that was. I appreciate you reading this far. For your patience, a cool Portal remix:
