We'll tak a cup of kindness yet

Well today is new year's eve. Tonight there is midnight, then tomorrow is the beginning of a new year.

Are you ready diet industry!? Make sure you are well stocked.
Sell it fast, these usually don't last for more than a few weeks.

Mine usually don't. Well unless I make a lame easy one. Usually I just propose to be a happy person or something stupid like that. I kinda want to gain weight. Thats a little opposite of the usual resolution, but I'm serious. I need to hit the golf ball farther and also maybe make layups against bigger people.

So I don't know if thats my resolution or not. It will count as part of it.

Anyways, isn't this type of thing like wishes? If I tell you will it not come true? OR at least I won't have the shame of failing and everyone knowing.



In the end my new years resolution is going to end up just as dumb as usual. I'm thinking, "going a full year without peeing my pants" is a good one.


Have a Merry New Year.

ge8800gtamddualcore6000+4gbram$$$500gbhdmobomobo

I have had an addiction for awhile, but it is really becoming serious now. I guess I should have seen it coming with Christmas coming around and everyone asking me what I want. I could tell them, but they wouldn't understand. They wouldn't know how to get it, or they would find a way, but it would seem impossible and dumb. So I don't exactly tell what I want. I just generally say what I want. Then I tell how I want it. Anyways, enough of that, back to the addiction

My addiction of late (this year) is a serious addiction. I may be going to my first OSA meeting next week before the problems really compound.

I have what they (by they, I mean me) call OSS (not to be confused with OPP), Online Shopping Syndrome. I truly don't believe its a problem, but most drug addicts don't think they have a problem either. Its just so great. Everything is online. Its usually 10x cheaper than anywhere else. I can research and not do too much impulse buying. Sounds great eh?

Well there's a dark side. I have become a super-researcher when it comes to stuff online. I spend countless hours figuring out how to get the best deals on the best stuff, the stuff that will make my happier. I figure out price to happiness ratios. I become a semi-professional person in whatever field I am thinking about purchasing something from.

Recently it has been computers. For this whole thanksgiving break I have spent a great deal of time looking at computers (because the one I am typing on apparently isn't good enough). For a long time I wanted a ps3 (or a wii, or a 360), but I have had a change of heart and mind. I've decided, no, no console, but I want a PC that is better than the consoles. I really believe this is the most awesome idea I've had in awhile.

Most people would say, "to do that you would need a fortune." Thats when my super-researching comes in to play. I have been comparing and contrasting every part of a computer. What do I need? what can I skimp on? What do I need to pay more on? is the 8600 gt good enough or should I upgrade to 8800gt? or is the 9600gt better than both? will it matter if my mobo (motherboard) isnt good enough? is my mobo good? Will this processor be good enough? I need a newer one. No not quite quad core, dual core will do me fine. but what is the difference between a 4000+ and a 6000+? is it worth paying more for? How much ram? Will vista require me to get 20gb of ram? how about crysis? will this setup be good enough for Crysis? Oooh, Crysis, lets compare games now. Pure looks better on the pc? awesome, crysis requires a great pc? is mine great? I think it will be... unless i stick with the 8600gt. Oh and call of duty. If i buy this game for my computer, will i turn into the rest of my floor? will i start acting and dressing like them? will i hear myself yelling at my monitor like i always hear. and will i be yelling at a different game than contra?

Do you see what I mean? thats the the tip of the iceburg. Those thoughts have been going through my head constantly... plus way way more? oh wait... will those deals go down since it wont be black friday anymore?

Are you beginning to see why I can't tell anyone what I want for christmas... at least detailed... i just say either Money or money towards this computer.

I dont (usually) say I want the AMD Athlon 6000+ Dual Core CPU Asrock ALIVENF6P-VSTA MB (Ethernet, High Def Audio)4GB DDR2 800Mhz RAM 500gb hd, dvd+r dual layer burner geforce 8800gt with vista premium. That would just get strange looks... ask alecia. She's given them to me a few times.

Even if the item i wanted was simple, I don't really know if i could tell them. Since my addiction has started, everything I see at stores (mainly electronics) I say, ha, like I'd by that here! Its surely on the internet for half that price (and it probably is).

So it kinda does sound like the internet is great. Easy to find stuff. Easy to research stuff. Better prices.

That causes problems. Easy to find= would i have ever bought a golf simulator if i couldnt find it online? easy to research, could i have been doing something more productive with my time? better prices= would i have bought that at all if i didnt see the good price?

In concussion, my conclusion to the whole thing is that I do have an addiction, but I don't want any help. I like the internet. Everyone is lucky I have no money right now (spent it all on golf simulators and ping pong paddles, and 100 golf balls), or i'd buy stuff.

Jet Audio

Good news everyone!
I finally got sick of Windows Media Player (it would not recognize that I had ANY music on my pc for some reason now)

I downloaded Jet Audio, thats much better, BUT it wouldnt work with www.last.fm (site that keeps track of what you listen to... check mine out! :MY LAST.FM Page

But i looked up some stuff and figured out how to get it to work. It took a little more work than it should have, but now it works.

I should have been studying for my math quiz that I have in 13 minutes.

I also shouldn't have been writing this blog. Its taking my time and YOUR time. sorry.

Now I'm going bite my tongue

now i'm going to look like an idiot, because here comes a vague depressing blog... you know, the kind that I was JUST making fun of.

this will be shorter than the last one i now decide.

here it is:

Now that every single constant I had in the last 3.5 years is gone. Now what?
Am i going to be stronger from what didn't destroy me, or am I destroyed.


I could name the constants, but I won't for now.

Bigaboom bigabang.

Dumb Blog #476

Here it is again. I'm writing and you once again are not reading (by "you" I mean "most people" [I'm not stupid, I know YOU are reading this]).

I think I should start video blogging, or Vlogging as they call it I think. People are reading less and less and watching more and more, but on the downside, YOU would have to see my face everytime (or maybe I could think of something else) and I would have to not look horrible everytime. For example right now I'm blogging (not vlogging) and I look like crap, but it doesn't matter. It also doesn't matter that I'm going to have to go to the bathroom half way through this since time is not a factor when you I'm typing, but it is if I'm being recorded.

(bathroom break)

(15 minutes later)

anywho, where was I?

oh yeah I was talking about a bunch of nonsense. Now I'll continue.

So here's an idea. to get lots of people (over 3!) people to read this blog, I will mention a bunch of names so people will see them (I know how interested you are in yourself).

Here we go. Trent: you suck
Alecia: You have been sick (as have I [oh yeah world, forgot to mention, I've been really sick so if you've seen me lately and thought i looked like crap... I also felt like it.) I love you.
Chuck: thanks for getting me subway and medicine, or taking me there, no thanks for taking my pc from me for so long (3 days) and making me pc binge tonite. I guess the joke is on you though, because you've probably suffered through this whole blog now. HA!
Travis: you won't read this, so i won't bother
Tiger Woods: thanks for being on the cover of my latest obsession (tiger woods 08 for pc)
Timesplitters 2: thanks for being such a great videogame.
Golf Channel: thanks for giving me stuff to watch.
Trent: you've lost focus on the reason you are putting names on here
Alecia: 2nd mention
I quit.


I should have said this earlier. Everyone go to this link: http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/showdown/PreviewArtworks/174925 and look at my picture, and give me a 10 or whatever you think! Voting doesn't start til later though.

My TV just stopped

OH no!, my tv just stoppped showing my images. The daily show is no longer on. Did ... oh wait, it just came back on.,, but its messed up... blurry and staticy, staticky, statiky. idk..

i should be working on my graphic design project anyways. I mean i am working on it...

in the end. i like the flamethrower burger from dq. Its really good.

This may be my worse blog ever...

I know what can save it:


Fred Spins a Ball from Trent Fred on Vimeo.

ok, anyways... the weekend was good to me... I golfed my best and worse rounds in one day... hung out with my friends and all kinda stuff...

i should blog more often.

If anyone reads this you should blog ... i mean after reading through this much crap you should at least get credit right?

Whatever passes through my mind in the next few minutes

I always think of things I should blog about, but never do. I'm lazy I guess. Anyways, this... may not be one of those things I think of entirely. I'll just type some things I think about.

Just now. I reached in my pocket. My hand came out with RED fingers! The smell was nasty. I then remembered earlier in the day when I was thinking, "it is dumb of me to put these ketchup packets in my pocket, why don't I throw them away".

I've been working on the www.burnianonline.com website a lot... the new stuff isnt up yet, but everyone should beging going there constantly.

Last week was crazy.
2 weddings and a funeral.

I'm sleeping more this semester. Thats good.

I'm golfing better this semester. Thats good.

I bought a golf simulator. Thats good.

I have some ideas that will make me rich. Thats good.

Anyways I think 2 movies are coming out tomorrow that I want to see:
W
Sexdrive.

South Park is hilarious, but I watched this episode earlier, so I may change the channel. Its the one where Cartman gets the crap beat out of him.

Leesha's doing good...

Jessica's wedding was great...

This blog is almost over.

Me

Here's some things that I think that should pretty much explain myself as a person.

Why on earth have they slowed down on selling those sour starbursts in big bags? They used to be places and now they aren't easy to find. That's bologna.

Why did Burger King get rid of their best burger awhile ago (the Angus). It was so good. That's bologna.

Why did Sonic get rid of their Island Fire Burger. That was one of the best burgers you could get from anywhere. THAT is bologna.

Really, whats with "limited time only" things being so good. Why can't the permanent items be that good?

It is so dumb.

Does anyone agree?

Does anyone read this?

Driving Driving Driving Eating Driving Dancing Driving Driving...

so last night was the streetlight manifesto concert i've been waiting for, for a long time.

I left blackburn and drove to southern illinois to take some stuff back and pick alecia up - 2hrs

then left so. ill, towards st. louis. We went to the spaghetti factory to eat - 1.75hrs.

Made our way to the venue. we got lost, was offered some drugs, i think, then found it.

listened to first band The Epic Mayham. They were good and ska.

Listened to second band. Dan Potthast (sp?). He had his acoustic guitar and is in MU330. He played some MU330 and his own songs. he was funny and good. I got caught video recording him and they made me leave...


then i had to put my camera in my car.


and go back in.

so then ZOX played. They were interesting. Had a violinist who was good. Did some interesting things during some songs too.

finally streetlight manifesto played. they were great. itgot realyl crowded, i almost lost my glasses twice but i caught them. They played good songs including a nofx cover (linoleum) and a bandits of the acoustic revolution song (its a wonderful life). They were really fun, we were right up front.

I bought a bandits of the acoustic revolution shirt and alecia bought two streetlight shirts.

we left, drove for 2 hours towards sesser where alecia lives and stopped a few times for gas/ prospects of getting slushies but not getting anything because they didnt have the right kind/getting energy drink -2hrs

then i got to alecias and dropped her off there and headed back to blackburn. i ended up stopping at a shell station in nashville that blurted something out at me really loud that i didnt understand about the gas and check card or something so i put the pump back in the holder and left... i ended up at the same gas station i went to earlier in the night and didnt buy anything. I was awake ok until 30 miles til blackburn where i began feeling really sleepy... i made it at around 4:45 and slept -2hrs.

then i woke up the next morning at 8 for work.

The Big Question

Do people get driven to craziness through actions, instances, people, etc. or were we born with this time bomb of crazy? Or is it maybe a remote bomb of crazy that is set off by an action(s), instance(s), person(s), etc(s)?

I am possible the dumbest person I know right now

I'll make a short story long here:

I'm supposed to be making this review of the toasters concert for my journalism class... well i've been procrastination as usual and not really feeling like sleepign anyways. So two energy drinks gone and its 4:45 and i'm not done with my paper. Well i was looking up some information for my paper and on the Ska's the Limit site they have a thing to stream a bunch of stuff from that concert.. so i clicked on it and opened winamp... it then started playing....

i had also been on the off broadway myspace page before ....

anyways i was listening and nothing sounded familiar so i was confused. i thought maybe i should just wait and then the music i recognized would start playing. Instead it was this kinda crappy music. I wait and waited and then made the horrible realization that i wasted the last 15 minutes of my life listening to crappy music and not listening to the concert because:


my winamp sound was muted. and the off broadway myspace page had music. sucky music.

sooo i figured that out... and the concert is halfway done with the first band and i just exited the mspace page... actually i think i went to blogger with it...


I'm dumb

The Perfect Skaturday!

Tomorrow, February 23, 2008
Myself and Alecia, Mason, Bardo, and Travis are going to embark on a journey that will take us down many snowy roads until we reach our destination of Off Broadway. We will begin our journey by leaving around noon towards St. Louis. We will pass by many monuments on the way like, corn fields full of snow, grass fields full of snow, cars with snow on them, and people who hate snow. The whole way there letting the musical talents of bands such as, The Toasters, The Slackers, The Pietasters, Bomb the Music Industry!, and The Planet Smashers seep into our soul and caress the senses that cause movement of the feet and arms until we will hardly be able to contain ourselves. Once at our destination of St. Louis we will fuel our energy for the events going on later in the night by filling up at the Spaghetti Factory with spaghetti, salad, ice cream, and other delicious items. After we digest the food, we will travel, possibly nowhere, possibly to the venue. Once their our feet will be one horn from dancing in anticipation. We will get our tickets into the venue and find a place to sit and/or stand. The music will begin to thump out of the speakers and our feet will begin to move and our arms begin to fly. We will be zombies to the music. Then, finally, in conclusion, The TOASTERS will come on stage. Out hearts will pound, our jaws will drop, our feet will move, and something else will happen. Then The Toasters will play their final note of the night as we clap our hands in anticipation that they may come back out to play another song. Out of nowhere we hear horns and then guitar and bass. Then the drums come and we start all over again, being turned into zombies. Then they will stop playing and then...
...


annnnd thennnnn

annnnnnnnnnddddd thhhheeeennnnnnnnnnnn

Then we will leave and drive home and sleep the end.

Buzz Box

So... I have been sitting here tonite (pretty late, but dont worry, this time it was a weekend)...

earlier today i had a migraine... for most the day and missed out on class and work.

its better now though


ANNYWAYSSS... on with the point of this blog:

i'm in my room tonite by myself since my roomate went home for the weekend. I have just been messing around on the computer playing albatross 18 and stuff. I noticed that on comedy central right now there were infomercials, which eventually turned to the Buzz Box infomercial. It was not the first time seeing that infomercial, but the reason I am blogging about this is because The Buzz Box infomercial has extracted more thought and emotion out of me than any other infomercial, ever.

if you dont know what the informercial it is about, its for this collection of CDs with music from the 90s and some 2000s. It is all alternative rock music.

the dang infomercial really made me think back to when each of those songs were being played on the radio. those days were back when i listened to the radio. Is it just coincidence that i stopped? or has popular music really gone that far down hill?

I knew most the words to the songs they played and they also reminded me of certain times. Many of them just reminded me of my childhood. Most of the memories came in the area of probably 5th grade to freshman in highschool. Lots of them reminded me of all the times i used to go to six flags with craig and stuff. Some reminded me of other things. either way, for some reason my throat felt heavy listening to this music. Maybe it was a confirmation that those times are gone and i cant go back. (maybe cant go back besides by listening to the music). It was just kinda crazy how much this infomercial got out of me (much more than the girls gone wild and bowflex ones do!)


i'm also happy to realise that when i was younger i still had a pretty good taste in music. most the songs on that cd i would consider good. some on there i wouldnt, but i'm really not ashamed of my music tastes when i was younger. I am sure they have led me to my current tastes.

anyways this blog was pretty much pointless. When i began it, i thought i would have lots of good things to write but it didnt happen.

the buzz box is over $100 so i'm not getting it. The commercial will have to do for my occasional nostalgia (i cant spell).

Screw This

Why am I so dumb?

I stay up tonite, like most nights to do my homework.
But before I can start my homework I HAVE to finish anything else I could start.
So I start anything I can do.
Then I get so mad at myself for being so dumb and not doing my homework.
I decide to just screw it and try to do it in the morning.





then I stay up...




...



writing a blog about how dumb I am.

Stupid Electronics!

hey there, (12:10am)
i'm sitting here about to do my homework
its past midnight, its normal
but i was not about to start it without listening to music (11:30pm)
so i just moved into the new room with the new roomate
so i decided to use the headphones i got for christmas
apparently they are high quality and worth a lot
anyways the time was 11 something
i put the headphones in my ear and start the music
THE STUPID MUSIC WAS LOUDER IN THE RIGHT EAR!
so i checked the balances of the music...
it looked fine
then i figured i got some ear wax in my left ear headphone (dont puke)
so it was true there was some in there
i got it out with my thumb tack
i put it back in, it still sounded off.
so after many attempts to fix it,
it still wouldnt work
stupid electronics!



















oh yeah, turns out i cant hear as much out of my left ear for some reason.









now i may start my homework
(12:25am)

I Think I May Have Hit a College Milestone (or maybe a life milestone)

My life may be changing drastically.
Economically and Dinnerly.

I think I may have hit the point of really getting tired of ramen noodles and popcorn.
maybe its just a phase.

either way, all i have had to eat today is ramen and popcorn.
and i'm laying in bed past midnight and all I can think about is how hungry I am.
I was close to crying over my hunger...

anyways i was laying there watching the food channel
it was iron chef.
all of that stuff looked soo good
then the next show had lasgna and stuff.
that stuff looked so good
it just made me more and more hungry.
I knew all i had was ramen.
I was almost willing not to eat it because i wanted something better.

well in the end i gave in and got my ramen and made it...
im waiting for it to cool as i type this.

the point is:
I think i am very possibly going to stop being so cheap with food.
I may go out more to better places
I may start buying food over $3 at walmart!
I may actually cook some stuff.


... now all i need is money.

Packers vs Giants!

CAN ANYONE BELIEVE THIS..

note... you are surely reading this after the game is already over.

but currently, overtime just started and the giants just missed their 2nd field goal... this one to win the game and go to the superbowl.

now packers have it in overtime trying to make it down the field

This has been a great game and i hope the packers come up on top!

i'll add more after the game!

edit 2:

giants have a chance to win it...again... with a field goal!!!!

When I Die

I'll make you party at my funeral
'Cause mourning is for suckers.
I'll rent a ferris wheel and
cotton candy machine and have open bar
with all the Pabst that you can drink
the PA blasting my Clash records.
You'll finally know that life's okay
Even when bad things happen.





and i wish i wrote that, cause i'd be cool
but i'm that cool, but at least i am cool enough
to hear cool music

it was Bomb the Music Industry btw.


and yes... this needs to be saved, for when I do die. I'm Serious.

came up short

i came up short at bingo. I was going for the holy grail of bingo. 3 wins in a row.
The first time I played bingo I won a digital camera. The second time i played bingo i won a 32" flatscreen tv (which i am currently typing on).

so this time, i was going for the george foreman grill. Oh that would be nice. BUT i didnt win. I hate my life.

quick news

after quite a few hours of working on this website that would not do what I wanted, I got it to do what I wanted.

I'm creating a website about Sears Catalog Homes. (if you are from blackburn you may have seen the flyers advertising to do this)

this site looks like it will be HUGE.
The lady I am doing this for has a huge collection of many things that will be on this site. She wrote a book on it and there is more to come.

I am going to work pretty hard on this and try to make it look really good. I also have to work fast so I will do that too.

I'm just a little excited because this is my biggest deal on designing a website so far. I have been thinking a lot, but I am sure my good ideas will not come until I am in my thinking place(s).

the shower and the toilet.


salutations,
trent.

Oh yeah, Good and bad news of late

do you want the good new or the bad news first?

it doesnt matter what you want, this blog is not interactive.

so here's the good first.

GOOD NEWS:
I got my computer hooked to my new tv so now my computer screen is huge
I made it through break alive
Turns out I only have two books to buy
I get to make a website for someone! FOR MONEY!
You are reading my blog
I am about to put my new memory in my pc (and by "I", i mean marcus)
There's more i'm sure but i'm also sure that i'm done for now


BAD NEWS:
I am poor
I have more classes than i have time for and i am going to drop my drawing class
When I was born I had a certain defect which waited til this year to show symptoms of
THe streetlight manifesto concert was postponed
The Feature Presentation concert was canceled
...oh yeah the defect is called "super dumbness and forgetfullness"



And just now i had an idea: turn my bads into good things to make myself feel better:

I am poor... which makes me humble?
I have more classes ...etc... I get to take the class later and it wont hurt my gpa since i decided already
at least i found the defect this early and still have a chance to fix it
now maybe some more friends will be able to go to the show since its postponed to a possibly more convenient date
I ate out instead of the fp show
and admitting is hte first step.


alright i hope that was entertaining and educational.


Sincerly,
Trent
