Since I basically did all my homework last night I'm going to watch the majority of my tv shows today and begin writing my fan fic throughout the day and tonight and then probably finish it tomorrow hopefully. However I really have the urge to pick up playing the witcher again out of some kind of weird fantasy urge, so I might download the enhanced version or w/e and start playing even though I'll probably have to start all over but I suppose that means I can actually freakin have a build that doesn't blow freakin pissed me off having to fight the demon boss canine 50 times just to reload 45 minutes before to change my skills. Then again I might get 15 minutes into it and get angry becuase the thought of getting to Vizima or w/e scares me ebcuase thats where I quit all those months ago.

Yeah they're called boobies.

So I went to this Institute for Internal Auditors shindig thing and it actually went pretty well. I know I claim to be some kind of ruthlessly hopeless social pariah but I think I did pretty stellar. I stirred up some conversation with a very nice and very pretty asian girl from one of my classes and another nice and pretty girl who actually had a twin there as well (I think as a man I'm obligated to put this less I be conceived as gay). I also met a few people from the industry and gained some serious insight into just how much bs the big 4 firms lie through their teeth. I'm actually pretty stoked now. I feel good. This might be a first on this board, but, I'm not angry. Though I do have work tomorrow... Now I'm angry.

My managerial accounting exam went pretty well. I know I aced like the first 8 multiple choice and I got most of the journal entries correct but the actual costing scenarios didn't go as well. The first one was stupid hard. I'm not even sure I got any of the points on that one becuase everything I pretty much pulled out of nowhere. The other ones I did much better on except the last question it was activity based costing and I was debating between applying the predetermined overheard rate to direct labor or just applying the $10 an hour labor cost. In the end I just used the $10 an hour for direct labor and hope I'm right. But seriously that first question really threw me off. The questions were quite basic and you can find them out with like x + y - z = w. Well to find Z you have to know w but of course we had to determine that on our own and it just got really complicated and I think I over thought it and I was scared. But now I have to iron my clothes for this dinner thing and I'm really nervous and my hands are literally like -10 degrees but when I get there I'm sure they'll be like -20 degrees and sweating profusely. Going to be awesome. Damn these hands!!

I just got back from a presentation for a local accounting firm in one of my classes and now I'm eating about to study for a quick 40 minutes before heading back to school for an exam in my other accounting class and then I'll probably come back home and change for an accounting event dinner thingy tonight. I'm scared because I have to actually network with people which I've never done before and I have to becuase I have to write a 1 - 2 page paper about who I met and what we talked about or something. Not entirely sure what to expect here. :'(

The Darjeeling Limited The movie is directed by the same guy who did The Royal Tenenbaums and while it wasn't as good I certainly enjoyed the film. It centers around 3 brothers who haven't seen each other in over a year since their fathers funeral. They all meet upon The Darjeeling Limited, a train traveling through India. Most of the story follows their interactions, back stories and how they've coped with their fathers loss. There's no huge laughs or any kind of super deep immersion or anything along those lines that makes this movie stand out, which is probably why it hasn't gotten great reviews but it's quite charming. The cast is great, the train is brilliant, and the story is interesting, albeit a little choppy at times but over all it was nice. I give the Darjeeling Limited a 8.7/10. Pathology Someone recommended this movie to me even after saying that I despise stupid Saw like movies. If you want to see Peter Petrelli stab a dead guy in the brain stem and the awesome private eye dude from like 4 House episodes get acupuncture on his nipples then I suppose go ahead. It's basically about a group of pathology residents who've devised a game in which they kill various people and they have to try and figure out the cause of death. It's basically just a lot of blood, sex and high production values. Pathology gets a 6/10

I feel ya Krez I've been depressed for little over 3 years from now. I won't go into the specifics but I definitely know what your going through and it sucks. At least for me I have work and school so that gives me structure and time away from myself but even with that stuff I feel empty inside. I can still laugh and smile and sometimes, very infrequently, I can get giddy with excitement and almost actual happiness even though I know it's fake while other times, very infrequently, I get lonely and begin to question my life and what not. But for the vast majority of my days I'm basically zombie slug, the cold, calculating, emotionaless studying accountant. The exposure and amount of depression you feel is probably largely based on your mentality and emotional characteristics. If you're naturally friendly by nature and all that good stuff I have no doubt that you'll make new friends and live life how you used to. But for someone like me, who is inherently anxious and intensely shy it's probably going to require meds and not being such a vag. The only advice I can provide is try and make your life as simple as possible. Get structure, a hobby, and new friends. Thinking is your enemy here, keep yourself busy and you won't have to.

You should be afraid enoch. It's a quote straight out of Eddo's gripping tale of horror and intrigue and overt rape and monsters or something along those lines. Now answer my plea. It's a lawyers job to pervert justi- Erm I mean uphold liberty!!!!

Yeah my first time being called for jury duty I was in one of the pools so I basically went to the court house down town sat in a large room with a bunch of other miserable people for 5 and a half hours until someone came in and was like yeah your all excused now get the hell out of here before I call security. Where's enoch? We need to devise a way in which I can commit a felony that relieves me of jury duty but doesn't interfere with future work opportunities. What if we forged some documents to say I was 14 and then I could get it expunged? Think enoch, think!

One of my accounting classes is angering me. We have a homework manager set up that has assignments for the first third of the semester and of course I've put them off until now with 10 days left The reason being is in the begining of the class I did the first 3 and it took me like 5 minutes so I assumed that the rest would be of equal or close to the same level but the difficulty has increased exponentially. For one problem today it took me upwards of 40 minutes. There's a built in function that allows you to see if the answers you've provided are correct without actually grading your submission so that really helps but at the same time when you get something wrong it's like what the hell is going on? For one question I was just sitting there for half an hour trying to recalculate and read through the text to figure it out when I finally just submitted it so I could look at the answer. It was seriously some purposeful tomfoolery afoot on that one. I have my first exam on thursday for managerial accounting. That one I should do fine on. I think I'm going to work out now.

I think you need therapy. I've been trying to figure out a way to broach the subject without coming off like a jack ass which I've made many attempts at and will no doubt fail again here but in the end I always x out becuase it usually ends up having language that will offend someone and I'm done with that kind of stuff after I hurt a very dear non friend of mine on the board who shares my interests in cats. I mean there's something obviously wrong in your life. You somehow inexplicably befriend people who are for a lack of a better word crazy, have many casual one night stands, and you frequently drink and party at the expense of your health and detriment to your job. I'd say the whole goth scene kind of perpetuates all this stuff, it's just a cauldron of kids who were abused or grew up in chaos or just whatever and they in turn feed your need for chaos. I'm obviously no expert and who the hell am I to judge you but you display some serious behavioral problems and you're most likely an alcoholic. I know I ride you sometimes for the stuff you do but it's only becuase I love you and everyone else and I don't want you to ruin your life over something stupid. How about you put down the booze, start pumping a little iron, and maybe focus some of that extra energy into something constructive like a career and investing in your future. Then again your free to do whatever you want and all you have to say is stfu slug and I'll do just that, well at least for a while until I just get angry and then I'll give you hell. Hell I tell you.

Yeah I'm a little puzzled by the turn of events thus far. I mean I can understand the need to kill gaeta off but this whole cylon thing has me really confuzzled. I mean at first I was like "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh f u cylons." and various other hating of the cylons but seriously after all thats been said and done like for seriously? How can there still be such widespread h8in going on. I mean it'd be like the black movement right and like its hard to tell the difference between one brother and another and like serious stuff is going down and theres ak's and people getting beaten to death and then like martin luther king blows one of his own peoples heads off to save you, multiple times and you still don't trust him. Like seriously? Martin luther king going to double cross you in some kind of ridiculously dumb masterplan instead of just nuking everyone to hell and ending it within like 2 seconds. Yeah ok. And yes I just said mlk was a f'n cylon. What are you going to do about it?

I almost died today. Like for serious died. So I'm chauffeuring two people to the airport early this morning when we reach a tunnel beneath an over pass. It's a good 125 - 150 yards of tunnel and the lights haven't come on. Due to the overcast not much light was coming down either so we enter into the great darkness. I flip on my headlights like everyone else but I notice something strange. No lights, no dash board, no acceleration; literally complete darkness. The only thing I can see is the exit but luckily I'm driving at a pretty good clip and managed to coast out of the tunnel without being rear ended into oblivion. Again no lights, no flashers, no break lights nothing and people go upwards of 65 in there while I was probably going 35 towards the end. I pulled over on this little sliver of lane and it's just cars flying by at like 100 miles an hour while I have the hood up. I bash the heads of my battery with a rock and the baby purrs. So I dropped them off and get to the same tunnel. Not even 5 minutes have passed and the lights are on inside. Awesome. Things a freakin pos jalopy. At least I can get a new car at a great price now.

I think the foot thing is actually from the future. Scientists believe we will lose our pinky toes in a few thousands years or something becuase they no longer serve any purpose since people don't climb trees anymore.

I have a question regarding profanity and certain themes that may be too graphic for young children. Will I be able to use graphic detail about violence, sex, and drugs within my story becuase if not then I might as well not do it at all because that's basically what my entire story hinges upon to be entertaining.

I think you should not meet her. I know the pleasure you derive from drinking large amounts alcohol while eating spicy foods and that's all it really takes before your slumped over in the back seat of your car, half conscious and being dazed and confused. Then in your frightened and enraged stupor you revert back to all your military teachings until its just you with your pants around your ankles. Nothing good can come of this Wals. Trust me, I've been there. I too also love snow.

Watched quite a bit of tv today and going to do a little homework before UFC starts. Since I don't want to search for the dead tv shows thread I'll vent here about a show me and hurlshot? watch. Burn Notice has been angering me lately with its melodramatic save the children crap. I mean seriously it's just bad tv though last episode they took a page out of the Japanese book and really took things with another level with some serious fan service when the horribly underweight anorexic costar chick threw down with this other malnourished chick and showed full on upskirt half cottage cheese thighs. It was pretty amazing. Last night I worked out and it was probably one of the most pathetic work outs I've ever had. It really showed how lame I've gotten from not working out for like 8 months. My arms were so fatigued I could barely lift my arms above my head and today they are pretty sore. Looks like I'll have to keep doing full body work outs until I have a good enough base before moving to more muscle centric work outs. I mean seriously my benching was horrible and I had some like 16 year old kid next to me that was probably a good 30 pounds lighter than me and lifting 50 pounds more than me. He was maxing every time but still. I really need to get my supplements though and more foods to eat.

Yeah I have almost 4k views but I'm pretty sure two thirds of that is mods pming me about my many, many out of line posts. The other quarter is probably just random riff raff that patrol the boards amused by how awesome I am and expect to find a treasure trove of wonder but luckily for me they were sadly disappointed and they deserve it becuase the slug can't be bought and sold like some kind of commodity. I expect at least some kind of e-gift basket of pr0n.

So I really really didn't feel like going to work today and ended up screwing around most of the morning and left a little later than usual when I walk out to my car and turn the ignition. Absolutely nothing. You know it's actually quite amazing. I've been driving for about 4 and a half years of my life but I've probably dealt with about 4 or 5 dead batteries in my time. That's not a very good track record but it's most likely because I've driven exclusively jalopy hand downs. Anyways, so I call my friend and 5 minutes later I'm on my way. Somehow through the magic of time deformation I made it to work but 1 minute late. Quite amazing. So I got off work and eventually got a new battery and now here I am singing about how I wish my car ran on dreams.

Enough about me. I'm boring. I did a bunch of school work and learndeded things about my personality that I've done in like 50 other classes. Since when do people need quizzes to tell them if they prefer to work in groups or if they are based in logic and math as opposed to working with your hands and being creative. Also managerial accounting puzzles me. :'(

Yeah me too but what kills me more than anything is people who go with the "No regrets" deal. That makes me angry, real angry. Just more new age no accountability for your actions bs I wish those people would get beaten with a sack of potatoes and then throw their lifeless body into a fire pit. That'd certainly be non regretful.

I want to make a thread and see what people think of me.

~~DON'T BOTHER READING UNLESS YOU'RE A MASOCHIST~~ One of my worst fears has been confirmed today. So I'm sitting at my desk with 30 minutes left of work trudging through this horrible horrible project which I basically go through the 500 or so plus student folders A-Z for the department I work in and just look through their files for field experience forms and try and match them to their electronic file and update any that are missing, when all the sudden the business adviser asks me to step into her office. Now in the past she's questioned me about my schooling because I go to our college and the much more affluent and renown state university. She's a nice woman and a great teacher but she is pretty damn committed in trying to keep me at the college becuase today she kind of set me up for a potential management internship at the city. So how exactly is this a problem? Well firstly, I'm just starting my upper division course work and have basically 2 years left of schooling for undergrad and secondly I'm majoring in and interested in accounting. There's also the time factor, I work 2 days a week from 10-4:30 and I have in person class from noon to 4 two other days. This basically leaves me with Wednesday and the weekend for theoretical time, however, I have 2 online courses and both my accounting classes aren't exactly a walk in the park. But the main problem here is I told myself a long time ago that the only reason I would even consider staying at the college would be if I had an opportunity to work with the city with a management internship and that's basically what's been tossed in my lap. The only real reason I went to the university was becuase they had opportunity there. The professors and administration have some serious, serious connections and pull with the right people and organizations. Hell, last week we had a presentation from 2 managers from the big 4 firm PricewaterhouseCoopers with more presentations from other firms to come, not to mention the school has dinners and other professional events where you actually meet the people who could very well decide your future within the industry. Now to make things clear, the internship isn't automatically mine, it might not even be there anymore. The university I go to basically does internships with this guy and they get like 4 of the 5 internships and the only reason he gives our school anything is because he's personal friends with the business adviser. The thing that kind of irks me is she created a obligation for me. I mean it's an awesome opportunity and I'm grateful and I'm sure I'd do well becuase the city has a large portion of idiots but she basically told the guy I was like keanu, that I was the one, that if he was looking for someone I was 100% going to be the best fit becuase I'm some kind of super scholar/genius when in fact I'm quite mediocre, I'm just above average compared to most the dummies that go to community college. So now I basically have to update my resume and really get into it and then send this guy an email and set up an appointment with him to talk about this. Except for I'm completely incompetent when it comes to formal or even personal social interaction and it's going to take not but 5 seconds for this guy to figure out I'm a sociopath and then he'll probably end any sort of courtesy he extends to her or the school. In conclusion, I'm screwed. This means I have to actually reconsider choosing accounting or management. One path could lead to generous success and fulfillment as well as stiff competition and a steep learning curve that only gets steeper and requires some serious qualifications while the other offers security, mild ease, a decent pay check with decent futures but at the same time it's the city so there's no where to really go and it's a bureaucracy. My brother is also stealing my car.

I'd say you're a kind hearted soul with a virtue about you that can only be found in well traveled old dudes you find in kung fu movies. Okay not really but you seem like a cool dude regardless.
