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
......
annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnddddddddddddddddddddddd thhhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...
...
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).
oh and i suppose since someone else posted one of these, i will do it and add my answers.

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...

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.

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!

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.
really.

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

Chistmas Eve Going on Christmas
Hey there loyal reader(s).
Its 11:35 pm, Christmas Eve.
so far so good. No terrible catastrophes.
My presents have been pretty nice so far.
I usually feel like I dont deserve them.
BUT I'll still accept them.
so far there's been shoes, clothes, computer program, concert tickets, money,headphones, food and some other things.
I'm pretty fortunate for this stuff.
Part of this all does suck with it being the first Christmas with my mom not being around much and my dad feeling like crap most the time. But, I should not complain. I am way more fortunate than many people.
so anyways i have a new cell phone too... ask me for the number... please! i dont wnat to just post it on here for anyone to see, but i'd love to give it to you, and you should give me yours! deal.
i'm listening to lots of ska music right now. Nothing puts you in the christmas mood like ska music.
i have these new headphones, i cant hear a thing anyone is doing around me. That is very nice.
i really feel bad i have not been able to get most people things. I have no money. I have got some things for some people, but the fact is I had to gather change in my room to be able to get home in the first place. and i barely made it that way.
anyways i think santa is almost here so i better go to my room before i screw it over by being awake and then my little brother and sister wont get any presents.
everyone have a happy christmas and dont hurt yourself to start the new year.

The Hardest Part
The hardest part is not what they say it is.
It is not getting the courage to begin.
Its easy to begin
The hard part is when you want to end but
you dont because of reasons you cant think of and
people you don't know
Its sticking it out for what is right
sticking it out for what might
happen if you do
and when it doesn't happen
You stick it out some more for
the chance that the goal may be reached
and when the goal is forgotten
you still stick it out because
it is all that you know by now and
it has become a habit
now the hardest part is breaking that habit
where again they say the hardest part is deciding to quit
And they are wrong again
--------------------------------------------
please note that i wrote this at 4:45am off the top of my head.
AND if you are worried that this is something about you and there's something wrong or something like that, stop worrying, there isnt anything wrong.
I dont exactly where this came from or what its exactly about in my life. Maybe school and my homework, because thats what i NEED to be doing right now. Either way, i dont know. i never sleep. good bye
