Just Call Me Crazy

Today is Thursday which is also called college day as most college students are done with their classes for the week. But in my case its not over yet. But first let me talk about my week.

Well as you know i did the career study switch thing and ended up having to drop the classes i registered for and take the classes i need. So i had to "crash" classes and man what a bitch that shit is...especially for the fall when all the people fresh outta high school are going there.

Monday i planned to crash only one class which was anatomy and i wasnt the only one trying to get in that. 67 people wanted in but there were only 2 spots available so the professor did the pick a name out of a hat system and no luck there.

Tuesday i woke up around 7 to get ready for a 9:30 chem class (which i really need) and sat through it only to be on the waiting list. I can't wait...i need to get at least 12 units so financial aid isnt on my ass and shit. plus i wanna get shit done already. so then that was a bust. next was my only registered class which is the psychology of prejudice which is pretty interesting. I don't agree with some things that she says but everyone has their own opinion on things. Its a chill class. Then after i tried crashing another Chem class so i sat through that too and again...waiting list. But the teacher said if i keep going to class hell probably end up signing the add slip.

Wednesday i went to the Chem lab and it seems a couple people dropped but im still on the wait list. After that i waited about 3 hours to crash a Communications class and that was full too. There were a couple spots open but too many crashers so the teacher flipped a coin A-Z=heads and Z-A=tails. So going in order by last name those are who get in. And well..my bad luck strikes again and tails showed up. Fuck that fool whoever flipped it! haha

Today was a better day though. i ended up getting that chem class and added a philosophy class with an athiest ass teacher. fuck that fool...but im just gonna take the class since theres only 2 tests and no papers. so fuckin dope but i dunno if im gonna survive listening to his bullshit.

Like i said im not done yet. Tomorrow im gonna try crashing an anatomy class which goes into Saturday labs too and then on monday im gonna try crashing the anatomy lecture and statistics. I'm also down to add a tennis class because i miss that shit and i wanna stay active when im not studying. Thursday is an 11 hour day at AVC but thats nothing. Im planning on spending more than 11 hours at avc everyday (except sunday when its closed) in class or either the library. Ill probably be home only when im sleeping and 3 hours awake. Pretty crazy shit but im down. It'll pay off if i pass them all. I'll try to update this blog on my sunday offs or whenever im in the computer labs on my breaks.

6 Days a Week....20 Units.....Just Call Me Crazy

Home Movies

It's pretty damn late but im managing to stay awake for a little longer to type this since i havent updated in a minute. I have school today but its at 5pm and i don't even know if i can actually get into that class. i hope though. i gotta get the labs done asap so i can chill out with the workload in the future (job).

Speaking of school, i never been this anxious to actually go. I guess i found some things to keep me motivated for the future such as a shorter time to transfer and less work to do. I talked to my mom about CSUN and she talked about housing whenever i start going to school there which was pretty nice to hear. I thought she would want me home forever! lol. I do like being home though. I think the thing thats keeping up the most is the fact that im on track to do something with my life. I look ahead in the future and know that good things will happen to me. I can see myself working as a PT and helping others. I can see myself being satisfied with my job and living a good life. I hope i stay this motivated for a looong while.

Yesterday me and the family watched all these home movies from back in the day and it was a trip. Crazy how time goes by so quickly when it only felt like yesterday. Watching the videos, i would find things and compare it to now. Like where people are now, personalities, things that we all would do that we don't do anymore. I saw some people who were goofy and energetic about things but now they are just blah. I saw people who have passed away by now. I saw how my house change from brand new to old as fuck. I saw people's styles changed over the years and the path they chose to do with their lives. I remember i was watching one of my birthday's (I think in 97') and i was hooked watching people in the house and i thought i was there in the video. I felt weird after when i realized that im not in that world anymore. One thing very noticable to me was that i saw my childhood. Man i was an energetic kid. Everything is so worry free as a kid and i miss it. Anything that happened, no matter how boring it is now, i had a blast. 12-13 years later here i am. 20 years old and in college. Finding my path in life and having to make my own decisions. Changes & Time=Crazy as Fuck

I need some hats. Being a new fan of The Hundreds, im down for the exclusive hats coming out. http://www.thehundreds.com/wordpress/ August 21st post. So down for the Royal Blue and the purple one. Doubt ill have the chance to grab them though. Maybe the black one that would be on sale online.

No Snowboarding Season pass for me. Points will do just fine.

Olympics ended yesterday but i can't wait till the next one in London.

So down for a 98 Subie if my parents aren't willing to spend a lot of money for a car.

Forget About Typing about Every Single Day Lol

Yesterday was a good day. Six Flags for free! How good is that? Thanks to Kat's 40 hours of hard work lol. I got to ride the rides i havent ever rode except for scream. X-2 and Tatsu...good shit! I didn't only have a good day just because of Six Flags. It was the fact that the kind of Brent i wanted to come out was the right one. The one that could have fun and talk to everyone, joke around, not feel down, u know just having a good time with friends and being positive. I hope its the case for the future. I know my friends were concerned about me because a couple of them asked if i was having fun and i could actually say i was. I think what a want to do is just be myself every time and hopefully in time im rewarded with one of those puzzle pieces
that would bring me to complete happiness.

Random thoughts for that day: I want more Johnny Rockets (thats less than 10 bucks lol), I feel like playing Smash again, Mike better have that anticipated pool party before the Summer is over.

Sushi Today! Fuuuk Yah!

Tomorrow i want to come visit the valley again but the next day i have an appointment to see a counselor at AVC. I just need to reschedule it if i can.

Wish List

Not much to talk about. I've just been adding things to my wishlist like a little kid. I want this and i want that. It wont end. If only i had money lol. After school im definitely gonna get stuff on my wishlist. I'm not gonna post everything that i want but heres the "Essentials" lol. (Note: Some of these things will be upgraded by the time im done with school so ill probably get those instead of the ones shown here. For now im just looking for the cheaps.)
Dynex 37' 720p Flat Panel LCD HDTV $649.99

I'm actually saving up for this right now and plan to get it before December. The cheapest 37' HDTV LCD you can get! I don't give a fuck about known brands. Quality is the same for all TV's in my opinion.



Insignia Blu-Ray Player w/ 1080p output $279.99

What's an HDTV without a Blu-Ray player? I didn't think there was a player that was cheaper than $399 but hey i found one. I would go for a PS3 but its all good. I'd rather save the extra $120 for something else. + XBOX 360 all the way!



Sony XM Ready 900W 5.1 Channel Home Theater System w/ Apple iPod Dock $199.99

I hear the new TV's these days have some wack sound so why not complete the HDTV/Blu-Ray experience with a home theater system? I already have speakers in my room but its those big old school speakers. They look older than me. I want to get rid of them and the small speakers from this system will save me a lot of space.


Apple Macbook with 13.3" Display - White $1,099.99

This is the thing to have. I never was a fan of Laptops but Apple computers are reliable and good to have for many years. I also want it for school so i dont have to write shit down anymore and find things easier on notes. O and ill be able to type notes faster which will help with those teachers that go to fast with lectures.




Sony Alpha 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera $499.99

I love pictures. i love scenery and art. But i never thought about getting a camera like this until my cousin showed me his. It takes some dope ass pictures and im down to have one.

2008 Subaru IMPREZA WRX $24,350

The Grand Daddy of my Wishlist. Wanted this shit for a while now. Doesn't have to be an 08 so a 04 and up is fine with me.

This incomplete list gives me a grand total of $27079.95. Better hurry up with school already and get a JOB! haha

Past Week

Ok i again completely forgot about this but im here...

I don't really know what i did since then but ill try to see if i can remember and ill keep it short to save me 2 hours + of typing. o and im lazy right now.

Friday was a pretty busy day. Went to Antelope Valley College to make an appointment for a counselor so i know what classes to take to transfer to CSUN. Yup its not Cleveland College of Chiropractic anymore. Its CSUN and physical therapy. Of course its not the ultimate thing i want to do but its something. I'm still truly undecided with what i want to do with my life but PT is something im interested in....kinda...fuck i dunno. haha. Well i just gotta let time pass and see what happens. I usually say that if all else fails im going to join the military but now im determined not to take that path. I'll admit its kind of because of fear but its the fear of being away from everyone i know and away from home. I know i would get pretty depressed and i hear #1 cause of death at military bases is suicide so i dont think its best for me. Not that im saying that i would do it but its a crazy thought.
Anyway, after AVC, drove down to the valley for the dentist and then to the eye doctor. Man i go to the dentist like 2wice a year. I need to get this wire on the back of my teeth out already and these wisdom teeth pulled. After that i don't care if i go or not. Just keep doing the brush after every meal thing and ill be straight. As for the eye doctor. im getting new glasses. Those black frames that's "in" these days. I kinda don't really know what they look like and if i look good in them but ill find out when i get it in about 4 weeks. If i look nice then ill end up wearing them everyday instead of just for class.
Stopped by Active and took the back to school offer i couldnt refuse. 3 Active shirts for $29.99. Not bad. Then it was off to my uncle for a visit. My sister and Abraham bought the WiiFit and it's pretty cool. Id rather go to a gym though. I know it would work if i used it everyday but im not down to use it everyday. my goal is to get buff nasty through weights haha.

Saturday - Finally saw The Dark Knight! That was a good ass movie and Heath is just too dope at being the joker and deserves an Oscar.

Today (or Sunday if you want to get technical) was lazy Sunday as usual and did nothing but play those video games and use the computer.

Last day of Summer School is tomorrow and im trying to pull a C. I didnt do shit for that class but i know i can pull that C. I havent studied for that Final but eh ill do it later haha.
