Just post about any recent events in your life that you'd like to share with the rest of us.

At the moment, my dad is tearing apart our old deck and rebuilding a bigger one. We also just bought a used boat (20 feet long) a few days ago. Went out tubing on it the day before yesterday with a friend. One time when he fell off, he did a flip as he skidded across the water. When I fell off, I skipped across the water on my back for a good 100 feet or so. We were going about 30 MPH.

[Someone Else]

Speaking of being in the water, I drove a jet ski recently. Or actually, a Seadoo to be exact.

Lots and lots of fun. A little tiring though, if you go over "bumpy" waves. If you ever get a chance to jet ski, go for it.

[Toasty]

I've only been on a jetski once before, but it was a weird boat/jetski kinda thing. There was a seat in the front, and room for two in the back. And it's hull was shaped like a boat. But it was still pretty fun.

But when we went tubing, there were so many waves that I had to take a lot of breaks from headaches. And the bumpyness doesn't really help your genitaila either. But it was still fun. ;D

I just went Snowboarding in New Zealand from the 29th of June till the 5th of July. It was fantastic. Except it being early in the Snow season so hardly any runs were open, making it slightly crowded. And on my first run on the last day I stacked doing a Toe Edge and Hyperextended both my wrists putting me out of action. It still hurts now...

[Mysterious Adept]

I've been....lazy lol. All i have been doing this summer is eating, running, going on the computer and sleeping. But things are going to get interesting soon! This friday is (for me anyway) a memorial concert put on by Kansas for my friend who died in August 2006. It should be a blast! :D

[Split Infinity]

I've been collecting various gang tags, oysters and photo ops around San Andreas.

[Toasty]

I just got a two day job. I'm basically just doing odd yardwork jobs, like pulling weeds, moving bricks around, some other stuff, and I'm getting anywhere between $10-$50 depending on how hard I work, and today I got $35.

[Lightning Star]

Recently, I...

• Went on my first driving lesson with my dad
  
• Went to dinner with my friends and ended up throwing up in the bathroom
  
• got a new printer only to have it not work due to a stupid file extension (.inf)
  
• am currently using my computer from in my own room at 2 am in the morning :P

(Saturday) The driving lesson went smoothly. I had to wait for a bird that was crossing in a crosswalk XDD. I didn't go onto any curbs or anything, and we practiced in a reallly huge church parking lot. Ironically there was also someone else there practicing how to use a stickshift (and trust me, you could tell he was driving a manual XD). I'm not really good at turning the wheel (hand over hand motion) but I can park and brake decently.

(Friday) Okay, so the dinner was a disaster . I actually went to a movie (I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry), and before the movie started, I started to get a headache. Well we came out, and it was seriously pounding. I was hoping we were going to go back to her house so I could grab my swimsuit from earlier and I could go home. But her parents didn't want to make another trip, and they wanted to go out to dinner. So I ended up going with them. By then my head was really pounding. Her mom gave me an Aleve, but it didn't work very well, and I was starting to feel sick. I had a few pieces of bread, but I already had a ton of candy earlier I had smuggled into the theater (:D). By the time everyone's food came (Everyone's except mine, of course), the Parmesan smelled so bad that I felt like I was going to throw up. I felt like that twice until the waitress brought some ginger ale. Then I knew I was going to, and I did (but luckilly I got to the bathroom in time). I felt so horrible for practically ruining their evening, and my parents ended up coming to pick me up. When I got home, I did some serious toilet hugging. Sometimes when I get a severe headache, it makes me queasy, and I think all the junk food just was a bad mix.

(Saturday) After my dad and I went driving, we went to office max to get me a new PSC (printer/scanner/copier) like the one I had that broke; it would paper jam and do all sorts of crap, so we figured it was just time to get a new one. So we got a refurbished one for $49.99 and I took it home that night to hook it up. Well

1. There was no paper that told you what to do first
2. Nor was there a printer cable to hook up to my computer

But thankfully my experience told me that you always put the cd in first, and I still had my cable from my last printer. Well I figure it out until, when I'm going through the installation, HP gives me a message that says "missing file: usbstor.inf". It gave the directory location, so I went there, and lo and behold "usbstor.inf" is sitting right in the folder it's supposed to be. I spent 2 hours trying to figure this out, when finally I decided to play around with other files. I saw one called "usbprint" but it didn't have an extension; so I added one. When I hit retry, there were now TWO missing files. Then it hit me. The files WEREN'T missing, they were incorrectly labeled. So all that time and trouble and hours looking up on HP's website was caused by three little letters. Leave it to HP.

And finally, my parents have let me take my laptop back in my room and have been very lax with me lately, since I've been keeping my room and bathroom spotless. I've been an angel child, helping out without asking and such, so I'm starting to reap the benefits now. Why am I up at 2 am in the morning? 'cause I can be :D

[pHantOm]

Got a new job, and taking a break from training in ms.

[I'm Always BROKE]

Going out a lot, chilling with friends, work in the local supermarket, check out the internet at times and moan about the bad weather.

[Golden Legacy]

I've been spending the past two weeks on vacation from college with the family. I love spending time with them, especially my baby sister (and of course, playing Wii after a four month hiatus :P).

I feel sorry about the Wii. XD *urges you to play Radiant Dawn*

Anyways, I've been working a lot as of late; as a matter of fact, I'll be leaving in less than an hour to work a 7.5 hour shift. Aside from work, I've been playing through Radiant Dawn again, reading, looking up SSBB info, drawing, and hugging my brother.

[Lightning Star]

Lately I've been staying up till 2-4 AM in the morning and waking up around 12-1 PM. Buut I have to go back to school on monday.

[Drizzy Drake]

Last night me and my friend stayed up till about 6 playing video games, among other things, and I woke up about 2 hours ago.

[Envy]

Classes just started again for me. I had quite a long break due to getting my whole finals week canceled because of an freak ice storm. XD ^_^

What's exciting in my life? Well I got a new puppy.

I have a picture, but don't click if you don't like bulldogs. XD

Here he is.

I also apologize, I'm a terrible photographer and I happened to be the one to take the picture.

[Split Infinity]

I love lazy dogs. =D

[Envy]

He is pretty lazy.. However he's still in the puppy stage (he's 8 weeks old.) and he bites and chews on everything. ^_^

I can't wait until he grows out of it!

Aww, he's absolutely adorable. Congrats!

[Lightning Star]

Heehee, our kitten bit and chewed everything when she was really little too.

He's so adorable for a dog!

What?! Dogs are so much more adorable and cooler in every way than stupid cats!

Anyhow, that guy's cute, though I'm not really a fan of those kinds of canines.

EDIT: Just thought I'd add this, nothing much has been going on in my life except that I'm on holiday and I've been ill for the past 5 or so days. And I mean REALLY ill. If I'm not better by tomorrow(which I doubt) I might be going into hospital. So if that happens, see you guys later. If not, then see you tomorrow.

Your dog is almost as awesome as mine.

[Split Infinity]

We need to revive a pets topic.

[My Best Wishes]

I'm moving to Sydney at the end of this month so right now my life sucks. I don't think I've had holidays since maybe a week before Christmas, everyday I've been doing work on the house (Sanding back the deck, replacing roofing, garden work -_-) or I've been packing. And If I haven't been doing anything on the house I've been at work or at my friends houses.

[Caael]

At the moment, I have maths coursework due in tomorrow, and a science exam next week, but i'm not letting the pressure get to me yet. I cant revise for science though because of my coursework.

[My Best Wishes]

Gay, you reminded me of the term of homework I have to catch up on...

[redchi]

i am just geting over a bad cold so ive been sleeping alot but i am geting better day by day :P

[Folcon]

I scored me a hot date with a nice girl for tomorrow night. But we're just going to a movie and dinner. Maybe some mini-golf if there's time.

[Ironsight]

Huh, I just got my report card back. Apparently, I have a D+ in Math. Looks like i'll be getting tutored =(

[Folcon]

what kind of math are you studying?

[Ironsight]

Algebra D:

Watch the spam.

[Eugine]

Duuuude, I hate algebra! Well, algebra in secondary school (high school) was really easy though. My advise: Practice, practice, practice.
My favourite topic in maths would be trigonometry. So awesome... Well, college lvl sucks.

You know, I have a Math exam 2moro (at 11:30). Sequences and Series... 20% of my overall grade. I need to do well ;_;

[Golden Legacy]

Ahh, good luck Eugine! Seriously, if you need help with that stuff, send me a message (I'm on MSN now =).

[Folcon]

This may not be the spot to put this, but how about a subforum for tutoring. Perhaps it would help some people with homework problems and stuff and do good in school.

Edit: I only say this because I'm doing some light, off and on tutoring right now and stuff.

[Caael]

I am no good with algebra at all. Graphical maths is what i'm good at. Loci, interpreting graphics, thats what I do. But when formulas come into it, I just...fail.

I have a chemistry exam on friday, i'm hoping for at least a B, because chemistry is my worst of the 3 sciences.

[Eugine]

I really pwnt that Math exam today! I expect high 90s!

[Ironsight]

D: Lucky B*s*a*rd!
I wish I didn't have such a problem with Math. I won Science, but Math is my weakpoint.

[Folcon]

your school should have tutors that you can get help from. I know mine did, I just didn't make use of them like I should have.

[redchi]

i suck in math my self >>

[Eugine]

I've come to this conclusion with Maths:
It's either it's for you, or against you. If it's against you, practice, practice and practice.
If it's for you, lucky b*astard. ^_~

[Fury]

I'm trying to get a job now that I'm done with high school.

[Caael]

I think I nailed my science exam. None of the questions were too difficult, and I breezed through it pretty fast.
