Barking in the Dark

Big surprise here...

2006-01-05T01:53:10Z

Honestly, who would've guessed that I'm "happy"? =P

Your Social Dysfunction:
Happy

You're a happy person - you have a good amount of self-esteem, and are socially healthy. While this isn't a social dysfunction per se, you're definitely not normal. Consider yourself lucky: you walk that fine line between 'normal' and being outright narcissistic. You're rare - which is something else to be happy about.

Wow, five e-mails from Jen in the last 2 days. This girl really likes me, I guess. ^_^ I don't know if I should be scared or what. (I'm not really.)

So I had a pretty wild New Year's. Watched TV with my family, and then at midnight... I was asleep. XD I see that 2005 has successfully become 2006 without my help.

Totally dismal and execellent!

Ah yes, that was my password. Forgot it about a month ago and it just came back to me today. Sup.

Things that have happened in the last month:

Remember that dream I had where a girl I knew pinned me to the ground and made out with me? We're going out as of last Thursday. :D

Debate season's over. Jack and I made it to the quarterfinals of the state tournament and it was epic. Almost the entire team was there to watch us. I walk in the room and there's like 40 people sitting in the desks (keep in mind it's usually just us, our opponents, and the judge) and I'm like, "woah." Scary, but also really cool.
We lost... Q_Q

Got my PSAT results back. I scored in the 99th percentile in all three sections. Yep, I'm a genius. ^^

Not even joking, I think my favorite part of Christmas is Egg Nog.

update!

Kat and I broke up about a week or two ago. Did I ever post that? I need to post more often. It's alright though, the relationship just wasn't working and it was entirely her fault, but I don't blame her. If that makes any sense...

In other news, this creepy senior (that would be 2 years older than me) is hitting on my friend. They were talking and like out of nowhere he asked for her phone number.

Item 3: We're taking care of our neighbor's dog for a week. I think she hates me. Every time I walk near her she starts barking. Gonna be a fun week...

Number D: Pretty sweet dream last night. This girl I know pins me to the floor and makes out with me. I thought about why I would dream this about her and came to the obvious conclusion: Perhaps my subconcious is telling me I like her. And I'm thinking, "Not a bad idea, subconcious..." We'll see how this turns out.

Fifth,

And with that, good night.

haha i got to make out with an actual girl instead of marth

Kat is in my school's Drama Club. They're doing "Haunted Cave Tours" in the caves near town. Last night, I went over to see her and we were going to hang out for a couple of minutes. After what felt like no time at all, her friends came out and were all like "Where the hell have you been? You missed three shifts!" An hour and a half had passed and we didn't even notice.

And we've only been going out for three days... this is just so awesomely cool!

=DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD x100000

2005-10-15T21:26:19Z

Everything is just so wonderful!
I literally feel like I'm floating.
I'm just too happy to organize my thoughts into paragraphs.
Kat is just so fucking AMAZING! I'm still in shock that this wonderful girl is actually and truly my girlfriend.
=DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Just had to stop and do a little dance after typing that last sentence.
I don't think I've walked anywhere in the last two days, I've been dancing everywhere I go.
I'm still waiting for the initial giddyness to wear off, but it isn't!
AHAHAAAAAAAHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAAAAH!!

Also, I did really well at the debate today. I got a plaque! It's got a hammer on it!

That Google game

2005-10-09T16:08:24Z

Google your first name and the word "needs." Write the first ten that show up.

1. "Let's discuss what tools Bryan needs to use to find each type of source."
Um, okay? I guess I'm writing a paper or something.

2. "Glass windows Bryan needs can be provided by our premier providers listed below."
Shouldn't that be glass windows THAT Bryan needs?

3. "Bryan Needs a Title for His Home Page."
What would that thing up there that says "Barking in the Dark" be, then? I thought it was a cool title...

4. "MHMR In Bryan needs a volunteer to help in the case management program and in the ..."
Guys! Please volunteer! I need help managing my case!

5. "If Bryan needs help, it is legal for him to appeal publicly to member!"
That's good to know, because apparently I do need help.

6. "Senator Bryan needs to hear from you on your concerns about potential reductions in multiple uses without provisions, which provide for consideration of ..."
SENATOR Bryan? I like the sound of that.

7. "Las Vegas - come on black, bryan needs some traveling money!"
Come onnnnnnnnn, black!

8. "Bryan needs to improve in: Unknown."
That's right, bishes. I am perfect.

9. "Bryan needs a family that can provide him structure, and one that is totally committed to him."
Fuck you.

10. "Bryan needs a skateboard."
I could just borrow my brothers' if I ever felt like skating...

=\

2005-10-09T16:00:06Z

Game over.
Congratulations.
Learn anything?
That's right...
I stayed up really late coding this.

Well, let me break it down for you:

You have a total of 21 friends
You requested to guess 21 entries.
None was skipped due to invalid content (surprising?).
You made 21 guesses.
You got 18 correct.
Doing the math for you, that means you got 85% correct

Gina is writing a book

2005-10-04T01:01:40Z

About her life and whatnot. She wouldn't let me read it, but I snuck a peek at what she was writing.

"But now everything feels a lot better because I'm sitting next to Bryan..."

You Are 50% Boyish and 50% Girlish

You are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.
Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.
You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.
You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.

How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

Dream

2005-09-17T16:55:21Z

Posting this because it's rare that I ever remember my dreams well enough to post any details.

Any ill feelings I might have had towards my alarm clokc are now gone. I had a dream that I was filming porn in my garage and then my dad caught me and he was yelling and saying he was dissappointed in me and stuff, and then my alarm clock went off because I had forgotten to unset it the day before so I woke up. =\

I played an epic game of Jeopardy today in Math. Normally, I would win at any math-related thing, but only half the questions were about math (the rest were dumb pop culture things) so our team was down by 100 points at the end. Then we went into Final Jeopardy and everyone except us bet it all. We bet 0. The question was uber hard and no one got it. Final Score: Us: 200-something, Everyone else: 0. Three points extra credit for Team Arbiter.

Sorry if this sounds like I can't stop bitching about my orchestra, but when I'M the best violist, something is seriously wrong. Actually, it seems like there is a direct correlation between how nice a person is and how well they can play. So the people in my school orchestra A) are not cool, and B) can't play worth crap. Fun fun fun.

So I'm getting a cell phone. My dad wanted to be able to talk to me anywhere, anytime, so now I'm getting a phone. Oh well. When it arrives I'll post my digits so I can get phone calls from strangers on the Internet! Wheee!

I rule

2005-09-16T00:23:57Z

I love myself so much. I'm so friggin' cool and smart and stuff. If I could, I would totally clone myself and then have the clone be my gay boyfriend. I just crushed two pop cans against my forehead. That's how cool I am. I TOTALLY RAWK HARCORE.

Now, I wonder: Am I being egotistical, or do I just have high self-esteem?

I hate people.

2005-09-15T23:54:10Z

Today in orchestra at school Mr. Jones did a kind of sectional thing with the violins and sent the rest of us into the other room. You'd think that 15 would be old enough to be left alone in a room for 45 minutes, but for most of them, it wasn't. There were only like three or four people in the room that I did not want to stab in the face with a grapefruit spoon. Some people would just do everyone a favor if they were dead.

This one guy made fun of a friend of mine for being a vegitarian. What I should have done:

Mike: You're just a bitch like every other vegitarian.
Me: *stands up* Mike, shut your fucking mouth and keep it shut until you can learn some Goddamn respect.

What actually happened:

Mike: You're just a bitch like every other vegitarian.
Me: *still sitting down* No, you're a bitch.
Mike: No, you are.
Me: *shrug*

I'm so much cooler inside my head than I am IRL.

Expatriate

2005-09-14T21:17:22Z

The Expatriate
Achtung! You are 30% brainwashworthy, 22% antitolerant, and 9% blindly patriotic

Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would've left the country.

One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.

Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil shit was brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible you could have been one of them.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.

The Would You Have Been A Nazi? Test

- it rules -

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 26% on brainwashworthy
You scored higher than 21% on antitolerant
You scored higher than 4% on patriotic

Isn't there some cliche about how young hearts heal faster or some bullcrap like that? All I know is that I feel differently about Gina than before. If she wanted to date me again I would totally be on board, but since she doesn't, I feel like it's not worth the trouble. Maybe this means I'm not in love with her anymore. I dunno, this is like the third time I've told myself that I'm over her. But hey, third time's the charm. There's another cliche.

On a completely unrelated note, I got on the computer when my parents were sitting right in the other room and I didn't know it. They're not telling me to get off, so I guess my punishment's over early.
