in a rather large nutshell...
started school... really like it.. my teachers are rad.. my drawing teacher makes us draw with our opposite hands as an exercise.. it's the most annoying thing in the world.
My Japanese teacher is prety cool.. though I sware if I didn't already know most of the beginning stuff.. I would be completely lost.
--bought a computer, 30gb Zune, new shocks!, and a bunch of other random stuff I had been needing forever.. like a real mattress, a rad ghost nightlight from ikea, some pants and a rad jacket that Kaylie says makes me look frumpy :D (but I wear it anyways cuz I think it looks cool :P )
--discovered this band... who I think is freaking awesome.. and as soon as I get extra cash.. will buy their album
9GoatsBlackOut (click that link for their myspace page)
--and then!,... on to the inevitable bad luck that always seems to follow me..
I bought shocks for my car from a guy my cousin in Az knows who works at a nissan dealer and got me the parts for wholesale and said he would install 'em for free.. so I drove all the way fuck out there this weekend.. only to find out that he COULDN'T put them on for free becuase his boss at nissan wouldn't let him (and apparently he didn't know this was a rule anyways).. so I tried to return the parts.. because I didn't want to pay the labor for it.. it's expensive as hell. But it turns out that since the parts were special order.. I couldn't return them.. which I was never told about.. so shit.. I'm getting screwed for this guys inefficiency... so my cousin.. found a guy who works at his dealership(toyota) who could put them on for cheap.. so I drove out there... only to find out that I needed an extra part to put my shocks on (strut mounts).. which I also had to special order from the other nissan dealer across the street from the toyota dealer. (also got wholesale pricing on account that my cousin works for their sister dealer).. but the parts wouldn't get there until wednesday (it was saturday when all this went down) .. which fucking sucks right? So I would have stayed in Az.. but I had driven there with my mom who needed to be back to SB to work on Monday... so I drove all the way back to SB (stopped in La on the way and went to the Takashi Murakami exhibit at the Geffen Contempory Musuem .. which was awesome for the most part) and then.. went to school today (tuesday).. and now am leaving tonight to get my fucking parts put on in Az.. bullshit... fuck.. oh.. and an didn't even get tattooed while I was there over the weekend.. so it was basically a wasted trip other than seeing friends. I only hope that it gets better within the next few days...
and to top it off.... my TV is broken!
