The story of the Hurricane

Well.. first off... it looks like i'll ge to experience my first hurrican in a relative short amount of time.. fun stuff. Matt seems to be the one with an evil grin on his face, as if I've never experienced bad weather. Sure it's not a hurricane but I've had the shit scared out of me by far worse things.. aka the wrath of my dearest mother. I recently got to talk with my dad again.. that was actually comforting because it eased the shit and stress I had down here, but none the less my mom and dad both have been more supportive than ever.. and it's nice. Jobs are now starting to open up since school started and I can actually get somewhere.. I recently walked 5.3 miles around town only to really test the strength of my messed up knees as they pushed themselves to the limit. Along with my shins, thighs, back, and my newly aquired redneck tan (sunburn for those not familiar with southern terms of humor).. I got a good workout. I have food finally after some help from Matt, no hospital trips needed and i'm more than nutritioned again.

On a schooling update, I have to get a transcript from CCCC to get sent to UCF and then find out if I have to take the ACT or SAT in order to get registered. I have until december before financial aid takes my app and holdes it for invalid application. If I have to take those then it's another $50 but overall I won't be starting school til January.. which is fine I guess cause I need to learn a bit more about Florida as well as get more money. When things get closer to being in a more working progress I'll update that as well.

On the lovely FFXI/gaming side of my life.. haven't really been doing much or even playing FFXI or anything else except for late at night or on a few random days when i'm hurting/it's pooring rain. I quit HNM'ing and just enjoy doing whatever I find time/what I want to do. No drama, no bullshit, just.. actualy gaming. I hope I have a job and enough money to get some of the new games coming out, cause they look very promising and entertaining.

I hope my newly found-about nephew my sister gives birth to in January will have a great life. I also hope he replaces the utter dissapointment that I've become and am in this so called life of mine. I'm broke, jobs are hard with no FL dl, I have no food, I drink water every day, no reply from FAFSA or UCF. I'm sorry Aamanda for putting more stress on you, and if you can't pay me back.. then.. I'll just accept it. Hope I don't wake up from malnutrition and have to go to the hospital, couldn't afford that either.

Oh man, I had an exciting weekend, I went to Anime Festival of Orlando with Matt and Thienau and my new friend Kaley this past Friday-Sunday. I had one of the coolest experiences yet in Florida. I got autographs from Vic Mignogna, Travis Willingham, and Aaron Dismuke from Full Metal Alchemist anime series. Vic is an amazing inspiration, I got to shake all 3 of their hands and I talked to Vic for about 20min and he told me about his official fan club so that I can sign up for free. I did so and he even mentioned "feel free to e-mail me at any time with questions you might have about graphic design." Vic has been doing that for years as well as music, computer animation, and most of all voice acting. He was a great inspiration to get school done in the field I want to be in. He even might have just boosted my confidence to maybe get into voice acting for the anime world. All I can say mostly is that he is an amazing person who just has this aura about him that makes you just.. appreciate the good in people. I also won a Guitar Hero contest and got a few free things and an official contest T-shirt so that was fun. It still didn't beat the experience I had at A-kon with my mom back in dallas but it was damn close. I made really good friends with Kaley these past couple of days.. me and Thienau went bowling with her and her friend Tiphany for some good laughs, despite that Tiphany left early in tears cause of her aunt (who is payijng for her wedding coming up this saturday) giving her problems. I managed to actually slip on the isle and land flat on my ass cause the shoes had some problem with the grip going out. It was quite funny but all in all was a good time. We hang out and talk music and anime alot so it's good to make new friends other than the initial ones I have made since first moving to florida. It's kinda nice to see all these new things happening.

FFXI wise, Tola hit me up on AIM this morning before he went off on vacation to Japan and said "when I get back from vacation I'm breaking enfini thanks to Juvian wrecking the shell or whoever did but I still believe it was mostly his doing.. anyways.. when I get back I'm making a social and I would like to have yourself available.. see you then Jay". I think he's doing the right thing but it kinda sucks to see such a great potential as Enfini was just fall apart due to shit leadership.

To sum it up also I get to experience a hurricane soon from what the weather is saying. Fun times there.. Im' glad Tabetha is finding somewhere she's comfortable and happy with. Let's all hope you can keep it that way Tabs.. anyways.. take care everyone. I"ll update again soon.
