Inspiration is hard for me to find. When I do find my little niche area, though, I tend to experience serious flow. I get an intense interest, followed by a high rush of intrinsic motivation to further myself, and this ecstatic feeling. This can last for months to years. The only things I've experienced flow with are Japanese and psychology. Unfortunately, I've kind of run out of materials, which has kind of put an end to things.

I find it's kind of a hit-or-miss thing. Some people say they can inspire me, but it's BS, to be precise. I can tend to regard things as being boring, and I can even get a little frustrated at the situation until I can find something to do.

That's about how I am too.. When I get the ball rolling, I don't want it to stop. But once it stops, I'm just like, "Eh fuck it, what's on TV" and watch House or Heroes or whatever. Or I post here. Yay.

So anyways, I got a few new books, and one of them is Scar Night, written by Alan Campbell. Another A. Campbell, eh? Plus I have a uncle/step-half-brother named Allen, but spelled different. (Legal adoption thing, long story) So I want a book with my name on it, too. The more Campbells I see on the shelves (especially Aaron Campbell with my picture on the back of the dust cover) the better I feel.

My last name is, uh, uncommon, unless you go to a bigger city. There can't be that many Saccos around here. Of course, if the city has a lot of Italian people, then I would expect more...

My Korean last name was Chun, though. Makes people think of random Chinese people, I think. Chun Li, maybe. Lol.

I've been pretty bored today. So I'm making a wallpaper.

Hi hi all! Back from the dead... Again... So sorry for disappearing. I don't really have an excuse either. I just have phases where I can post for a while and then I suddenly lose interest for a while until the urge to post comes back again lol. As I don't have as much free time like I used to, I seem to like doing other things for the few hours I have at home before sleeping and going to work for a whole day 5 days a week.

Anyway, the main site and new forum layout look nice... I think I mentioned that before but I'll say it again anyway for the purpose of it hehe. I will be going to bed soon which sucks... And ready for work again tomorrow *sighs* I need a holiday lol. But that won't happen until next year basically lol, need to save up some holiday leave time. Then I will consider taking a trip I think :D Can't wait!

Anyway, I should be here a bit more now so I'll see you guys later... By the time I check this, you would have all posted multiple times and be in bed sleeping and getting up for the next morning lol. Sucks that, I come on here when no one is here because of the time difference hehe. Oh well, can't be helped. :^_^:

Actually, I don't think you're missing too much :P. If someone is on when I am, it's likely to be DM, but nobody else, really.

Also, about the wallpaper: O, lawdy, no, I wouldn't show it off. I didn't even finish it. Lol. My mom kicked me off the computer.

Oh, but today went fairly well. I guess I should post about it in the V-Day thread, though.

When I said you could show it off, I meant the finished version. :lol: But if you don't want to, don't worry about it, I suppose.

The new site layout is just a preview now. That's why it's in a totally different folder instead of the root /www folder, so yeah. I gotta edit and stuff, and then it'll be okay.

Holy shit guys.

Two things:

I just saw a video of Joe Rogan totally calling out Carlos Mencia (evidently Mencia steals tons of jokes, so this was incredible justice). As soon as I can find it on Youtube I'll post it. But I mean, it was pretty bad. I always thought Mencia was a hack anyway, so it was especially awesome to see Joe Rogan exposing the fraud.

Also, there's another thing that's really awesome. Check this out:

Joe Rogan talks about life, pretty much

Just ignore the radio hosts and stuff, this is really awesome.

Oh yeah, I watched that on Google. YouTube took it off per Carlos--err, should I say "Ned"s request of copyright or whatever.

That DMT thing though... I felt stupid after hearing that.

Seems like it's test-taking season.

I'm signing up for AP tests soon. Woohoo. I'm probably going to take English Language instead of English Literature, because I might have an advantage when it comes to language. I'll also be taking the Psychology test, since I'm fairly confident that I'd be able to pass with a 3, at absolute bare minimum, but I'd expect a 4 or so. They say it's easier than the other tests, and I excel on my psychology tests, which are given in the same way that the AP tests are given.

I'd also take Japanese Language and Culture, but there would be a couple of problems. First of all, they're not administering it anywhere nearby, I don't think. And second, I don't know if I could do that well on it, to be quite honest. My reading and writing equals a first-year college student's, probably, but my speaking and listening are not that great. I have problems even listening to a conversation in English, so obviously, I might have some troubles with Japanese. It's probably not worth the exorbitant amount of money.

Also, I have to pass the state's exit exam, which has come under heavy fire for being retarded. I think a third of my class has failed at least one portion. I have no fears, but it's more of a nuisance than anything else. Then, after that (or whenever), I should take the SATs. Seems like a lot of tests.

It would be close to it for me, if I had a car. But I guess that'll come back next quarter, eh?

Me and Nell are postponing the engagement, because I can't go get the ring, and the money I would have for it has to go towards getting my car fixed. Which, by the way, will cost me a pretty $1200.

You know, I remember a time when you said you wouldn't spend all that much on an engagement ring. Yet look at you now lol. That's nearly $2000 or more in $AUS for me haha. You must obviously love her dearly :P I still have yet to find my dream ring, better to look for it around the time it's needed than before or else what I really want now may not be around later :P I know Shane is worried about how much it will cost him haha. As I worked with jewellery, I will be very picky on my ring. But I don't want too much spent on it, especially when that money could have been put on something more productive.

I am not spending $2000 on a damn ring, that's for sure. The one I'm getting her is $120, so yeah. :P It's cheap for an engagement ring, but the one she wants to get me (we're doing ours mutually) isn't that expensive either.. Probably less than the one I'm buying her. *shrug*

$120?? So why did you say $1200? :blink:

Or were you talking about your car? lol

I dunno, I'm lost :P

Anyway, like to know what happened to me last night? Nothing exciting really, just something weird. When I got home from work, I ended up falling asleep at 7pm, making me wake up at 1am :unsure: Oops.

I was chatting to some people as well, and then others tried talking to me but obviously since I wasn't there, I had all these messages lined up lol. I felt bad, but nothing I could really do about it. But since it was so hot yesterday (and will be hotter today :angry:) I didn't feel much like sleeping again. But as a result I got to work on some more graphics and got to talk to Shane, yay :aww:

I went to bed at like, 5:45am in the end... Yet I was able to wake up at 9:30am. So yeah, weird sleep pattern. Yet I feel fine lol. :P

All I can say is, thank God I don't live in an extremely hot place. Anything above 80 is too much for me. It must be because I lived in Alaska. Though, come to think of it, I did live in the Southwest for a short period of time, too...

And if you don't mind, cheaper is better. In my mind, that is. I might not be an enthusiast for those sorts of things, but I know that I wouldn't want someone spending $2000+ on a ring for me. Doing it mutually sounds like a good idea, actually.

I wouldn't mind to be honest lol. But it's only IF it can be afforded. Like if we suddenly became extrodinarily rich then hell yeah :lol: I know I will probably pick something around $1000 but no more than $2000 hopefully... :unsure: It can't be helped! I'm just that type of person! After working with jewellery I need something I know I can stand looking at. After all, my ring will always be on me! :lol:

Ours will probably be around our necks half the time, though once we get married and we have our wedding rings, I'll be working more with computers and less with rubber gloves, so.. yah.

And yes, Rach, I was talking about my car. :P But I found someone else who can fix it for only $700, so that's much better, and easier to come up with.

As far as the ring itself goes, we're gonna wait till July to really make it official, because at the moment, I am currently immobile. Meaning, I can't actually drive to the place to get the ring itself, so.. yeah.

Guess what Aaron, guess what!? Me and Shane got back together! :aww: He asked if I would take him back again on Saturday. I was thinking, "What!? As if you need to ask!" :P I was still content if he needed more time apart. I was happy just talking to him. Then he felt all unworthy when he asked if we could be together again. Awwwwww! Just wanted to cuddle him into oblivion! :D I'm so happy! And I can't wait when I can go and see him! It will be so magical :^_^:

I love You, Rachii, with every single part of my being. You're a part of my soul.

Anyway, Aaron, so I assume you're happy now that I joined your damn forum!? :P
