Long time no See....

I havent posted anything lately in the past few months, I've been quite busy adjusting to this semester at college. So here's an update on what's been going on:

1)I still don't have internet, and haven't for 5 months (Im at my parents house right now though).

2)I'm only taking 12 hours this semester, but I thought I needed to relax this one since I took 8 hours over the summer  

3)I work at Office Depot about 20-30 hours a week along with school, so I'm trying to balance school and work and any recreational thing I can together so I can maintain good grades with a decent cashflow and still have at least some friends who still talk to me... I like my job, the people there are nice, I tend to have to stay after closing time for a while since we tend to slack off occasionally

4)Since I'm working now I've been feeling bad because I don't have much time to hang out with old friends or even workout anymore, I'm either too tired from standing up all day or I've got studying to do... Luckily I've been maintaining A's & B's this semester, so my parents are happy and will probably be more generous if I need anything.

5) Computer is broke, IDE controller on my Motherboard is definately busted... Hopefully my Hard Drives are fine, I don't want to lose my 200gigs of storage again and have to start getting it back from people again, it's such a hassle to go from friend to friend to get my 50 gigs of music back for the 3rd time

There is more stuff, but I wouldnt want to spill my whole life onto a page... just half of it

So in conclusion, sorry if I havent been talking to many of you lately or havent had anytime to hang out, but if you want to just give me a call and I'm sure I can try to make some time, Buh-bye!

Bored...

My Doctor's Note Reads:

I'm not kidding...

SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) -- Steve Irwin, the Australian TV presenter known as the "Crocodile Hunter," has died after being stung in a marine accident off Australia's north coast.

Australian media reports say Irwin was diving in waters off Port Douglas, north of Cairns, when the incident happened on Monday morning.

Irwin was killed by a stingray barb that went through his chest, according to Cairns police sources. Irwin was filming an underwater documentary at the time.

Ambulance officers confirmed they attended a reef fatality Monday morning off Port Douglas, according to Australian media.

Queensland Police Services also confirmed Irwin's death and said his family had been notified. Irwin, 44, was director of the Australian Zoo in Queensland.

He is survived by his American-born wife Terri and their two children, Bindi Sue, born 1998, and Robert (Bob), born December 2003.

Irwin became a popular figure on Australian and international television through Irwin's close handling of wildlife, most notably the capture and relocation of crocodiles.

Irwin's enthusiastic approach to nature conservation and the environment won him a global following. He was known for his exuberance and use of the catchphrase "Crikey!"

But his image suffered a setback in January 2004 when he held his then one-month-old baby Bob while feeding a crocodile at his Australian zoo.

Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer expressed his sorrow Monday and said that he was fond of Irwin and was very appreciative of all the work he had done in promoting Australia overseas.

In 2003, Irwin spoke to the Australian Broadcasting Corp.'s Australian Story television program about how he was perceived in his home country.

"When I see what's happened all over the world, they're looking at me as this very popular, wildlife warrior Australian bloke," he said, the ABC reported.

"And yet back here in my own country, some people find me a little bit embarrassing. "You know, there's this... they kind of cringe, you know, 'cause I'm coming out with 'Crikey' and 'Look at this beauty'."
