Smiles' Crazy Blog

And I can barely remember the trip home. All I really know is that my truck killed eleventy billion bugs and my belief that all birds are suicidal, is strengthend.

Currently I am looking for a job. I need to get one, so I can move out of the house and live on my own. I need one that will give me 40 hours a week, and will pay me about $8 an hour starting. I think that is what I will need in order to support me.

So really I need to find a job quick, and make it a good one.

Anyways, my little sister is really mean, and I need to find a way to make her stop being mean, cause I have been home very little and I am tired of it.

So I am alive, and in Oregon, and I still think birds are suicidal. So I will have more to say later. All of those who knew this was coming should be happy. . .or else.

So really want to see some bad Star Wars costumes, go here. They are rather unfortunate.

Anyways I am stuck in Missouri still.

So I should be getting a new starter tomorrow. Depending on the time I get it, I may put it in either before or after my last final. Depending on when I get packed I may leave after the final or not. So yeah, I will be going home soon, so long as my truck is fixed. Hooray.

So yesterday I almost thought I was going to have my truck fixed, but no such luck. I bought a new battery, and not the connections are fine, but absolutely nothing is happening with the starter, and I just bought that thing. Anyways today I am going to head back up to auto zone, and get yet another starter, and hopefully this one will work with the new battery and everything.

Hopefully I will have this done in time so that I can head down to Columbia and watch STAR WARS all day with Honzo.

On a good note, I got a perfect score on my final project in Audio Visuals. You know the one about the LAN party. Basically, he said I could use more pictures, but he really liked it, so he gave me an awesome.

So today I tried to install a new starter on my truck. I finally got it on the truck, and was able to start the truck. Then I got back to school and when I stopped I tried to start it again for good measure, but it didn't. Of course I noticed that it just kept trying to start. I figured that wasn't a good thing, so I open up the hood, and I see liquid coming out of my battery, so I decide it is time to disconnect the battery.

So I call my brother the mechanic and ask him what may be the problem. It is quite possibly two things. Either the starter is bad, and I need to return it and get another one, or maybe it was grounding out somewhere. So I took out the new starter, which did not take nearly as long as the first time, and I look at one of the cords on my starter and it had burned through. SO tomorrow I will re connect the stater, making sure that the cord isn't touching anything it shouldn't. It may be that I need a new battery also. So hopefully I will find time to do that tomorrow along with three finals. Woot.

Well...my truck is being stupid. I think something is wrong with the starter. I was just about ready to replace it completely when I called my brother for advice, and he told me that the truck had had problems with a loose bolt that may effect the starter so that is does not get enough power. So, instead of me just going to buy a new starter tomorrow, I am going to check that bolt and the wire, which will cost me $0. The price of a new starter is about $75. So I don't have to drop cash now. So that makes me happy.

Of course I am also kind of sad. Today was the last day with my sunday school class. For the last year and a half, except summer, they have been my favorite part of every Sunday. I will really miss that class, they brought me a lot of joy when I was having a really hard time doing ministry.

I graduate tomorrow. I am so excited. My parents are coming. They are driving three days just to stay one night and drive three days back. So that is kind of neat. Anyways later.

Is it just me or are birds the most suicidal animals ever. How many times have you seen a bird fly out in front of a car? A lot. How many times have you hit a bird? Me, once. I felt kind of bad, but then I just realized it was a stupid bird for flying out in front of me. I think this is how a bird thinks.

I am so depressed...I want to die...I am going to fly out in front of this car...I don't want to die, I must fly faster and upward...I am depressed I tried to kill myslef....

So really, birds are just weird. Definately the most depressed and suicidal animal ever.

Three projects due tomorrow. YAY!!! Good thing I didn't wait until the last minute to start them.

So today I had a professor tell me he was impressed. I hope I pass the class.

Now though I have to write a paper on C.S. Lewis' view of Moral Law, or Natural Law, or whatever it is he will finally decide to call it. I think that I may be faily harsh on him.
