Erratic Hodge-Podge

Hail Halloween, one of the few days where feeding the poor and disenfranchised is recommended, if only in sweets. Unfortunately, I've long been too old for trick-or-treating, which is the domain of small kids and the candically addicted. However, they've been giving out a fair bit of candy at school, thanks to benevolent instructors and students. This should happen everyday.

So, I got myself a cellphone, joining the throng of people perpetually annoying everyone else with those tones that sound off at the most inopportune time. It has a camera, too, so I can take sneaky pictures whenever I want. Of course, now people can harass me 24/7. If you really want to call me, email me first.

I'll be going to my first hip-hop concert on Thursday, to see Jurassic 5. I especially like Chali 2na, who I consider to be the James Earl Jones of rap. Anything he says sounds amazing. He'd make a great cult leader. With that voice, he could command people to erect a statue in his honor, and they would do it, no questions asked. Because they don't want the voice to get angry.

And here's a crazy video by those crazy Japanese people. Frankly, I just don't question what they do anymore. You won't find the answer you're looking for.

Different House, Different Basement

So, I finally moved out. I am now staying with my sister and her husband, at their place.

All I brought over was a Rubbermaid container of clothes and my school bag, threw it into a car and drove off.

I don't feel particularly excited. In fact, I feel as if nothing has really changed. Maybe it'll take some time to get used to it.

I still live in the basement.

A few plusses so far:

It's a pretty new house.
So the carpeting is better.
And my room doesn't have that 'Smell of Death' to it.
My sister and husband are more easygoing.

But it doesn't feel quite right. I'm still looking for a place with the Derelictitious one.

I'll Take Whatever's Behind Door #3

Man, it's the middle of October, and it feels like the same ole shit as always.

The weather's too cold.
It's getting too dark.
School's a drag.
I still live at home with my parents.
I'm withdrawing into myself.
I'm feeling unmotivated.

There are a few options that could change my life

ONE
My sister has offered me a place to stay at her place.
It'd be a halfway house of sorts, with more independence, and I'd still be living with family. where I'd have to fend for myself mostly, cook my own food, do laundry, etc.
There'd be no rent.
It's in a nice, sedate neighbourhood.
I'd drive to school.

TWO
As well, a friend has suggested getting an apartment together.
I'd have to pay for rent.
I'd have to look for a place to rent.
It might be a mess.
I might hate my roommate.
My roommate might hate me.
It'd be my place.

Thanks for the fast response.I will like to know the last actual selling price of the vehicle if there can be any reduction.I will be paying you in money order or cashiers check depending on which one you want.

This is due to the nature of my work beause I am always offshore.This is why i can not come over to see it.But I believe it is what i want and it is in good condition because i want to purchase this for my wife before her return.

I feel like kicking these dumbasses in the junk. I've only got one serious reply so far.
