08:23 pm: It's that time again. The time when I ask people to bring in various series to bring up for voting and viewing. That's not as much of a problem as figuring out movies to watch. We seem to have exhausted most of the popular possibilities. If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know.

10:23 pm: After thinking it over, I thought this would be the ideal place to put Genki announcements until other sources of bandwith can be found for a forum..As I said in my other Jounral:

No Genki Society meeting on January 7th due to possible adverse weather conditions

Plans for the 14th will be announced as they are finalized.  The President thanks you for your patience.

The Secretary of The President

PS - Could all members viewing this inform the rest of this site and to e-mail jcouderkirk@excite.com so info about Genki may also be sent this way to keep everyone in the loop.  Thank you.

05:12 pm: This Is The Last Post For This Journal...
As the subject says, this will be the last post for my journal. The main reason for this is because I couldn't get the Username I wanted at the time of creation. Now I can and have set up an account under the username living_mirror. This has greater meaning to me than being the pretty boy for the Genki Society. I'm in the process of transfering things over to my other account. So just ignore this account on your 'friends' list and only check the other one.

Have a nice day

08:11 pm: And that was it for finals. I did my presentation and took my test today in Media class and I am now free...FREE!!! FREE to work on the two ideas I got for conceptual albums (one about the elements and the other about mental disorders I have)..it should be fun to work on.

The whole reason for this is because of what I ended up doing for a portion of my final project. I made a recording of the Pink Floyd song Wish You Were Here in the vocal style of Bob Dylan. Everyone asked the same question of if it was Bob Dylan and all gave me the same look when I said that I had done the whole recording by myself, from the guitar work to the vocals to the mixing. It was great fun.

Now I get 2.5 weeks off until going in for winter quarter...fun times.

( More quiz results to further prove I'm a quiz whore )

09:55 pm: Finals Week
Okay..due to my own health problems, and a fear of the power going out on me, I did not get a chance to finish my final media project. The good news is that my professor has given me an extension until Wednesday because I wasn't the only one having power trouble yesterday. So I'll spend tomorrow evening designing more pages for the website, further glorifying any fantasies I have about being a professional musician (it could happen.)

I just know there is a rant building up in my psyche, but I don't know how long it will take to exspell itself from my system. In the meantime, I may be seen at college with my face either buried in a notebook or in a novel. In the case of the notebook, it means I'm either working on my story or some song ideas, and it would be best not to interrupt me.

( I am such a quiz whore )

10:32 pm: It is very bad for me to miss a dosage of medicine in the morning. I was in extreme pain as it was, but to just not want to do anything was much worse. And now, I know what I'm doing for a Media 105 final: building a mock website, recording music on my computer, and making logos for said website...fun fun fun.

10:33 pm: I was feeling relatively okay this morning aside from being a little tired. This afternoon, I would have felt much better if a few people hadn't felt as bad as they did. I couldn't help but notice Sam was depressed this afternoon, I can only assume over finals, and possibly one or two other things revolving around this time of year. Doesn't anybody understand that this time of year brings some of us down farther than the rest of the year. I'm also a little concerned about Chewie, but I don't think I could get him to open up to me even if I tried. If that is the case, I'll leave him to his own device. Even with me, there are some things I'm keeping in my diary that nobody is really meant to see. If people saw the thoughts anyway, they would regret it.

10:30 pm: I haven't posted anything in a while, and during the past week or so, I have been collecting quiz results. ( Here )

10:45 pm: This morning I felt like crap but I ended up forcing myself to go to college anyway, only out of fear that I would miss something important in class. It's a good thing I did show up because, much to my surprise, Ariel showed up while she's on vacation from Central.  Jessie ended up having to paint her nails using Ariel's chrome nail polish, and I don't know what put the idea into their heads to try to do my nails, but my pinkies are silver at the moment.  The would have done all my nails if I hadn't insisted that they not because of family gatherings I must attend tomorrow. It was fun hanging out with Ariel all afternoon.  I came to the conclusion that with her, Tamra, and Carter gone, the Fishbowl is actually pretty dull by comparison.  Ariel was nice enough to buy me dinner at Samurai Sam's, and I was grateful for that. My head felt a little better after that (stupid NyQuil and DayQuil) ><.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow.  I still end up having to visit step-relatives, albeit breifly, before having Thanksgiving dinner at home for once instead of having it at my grandparents' house.  Friday is going to be the usual shopping routine, but we are not going near a mall unless at gun point.  Saturday will be normal.  Sunday is a day for cleaning after my bowling tournament in the morning at Roxburry Lanes in West Seattle...Fun times.

Because of this cold and how I felt this morning, my song de jour is ( Germs ) by "Weird Al" Yankovic.

10:19 pm: This has not been the best day for me in the simple fact that I had a massive headache all day long and nothing seemed to help it until I remembered that I carry a bottle of ibuprofen in my book bag at 6:35 pm. -_-;

I had my test in Media 105 today; the teacher called it a "mid-term" with 3 weeks to go in a 12 week quarter. I wouldn't be worried about the test results but I didn't study that much and I was done with the test 5 minutes before anyone else in the class. This is what I get for excessive caffeine consumption throughout the day. The good thing is that I didn't second guess any of the answers..when I do that, I have a tendency to do really poor on tests. So basically, I ended up using the force to take a test and it was going really fast.

You Are the Helper

2 You always put on a happy face and try to help those around you. You're incredibly empathetic and care about everyone you know. Able to see the good in others, you're thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You connect with people who are charming and charismatic.

You Are the Individualist

4 You are sensitive and intuitive, with others and yourself. You are creative and dreamy... plus dramatic and unpredictable. You're emotionally honest, real, and easily hurt. Totally expressive, others always know exactly how you feel.
