April 1st - I'm Cool

I've been busy lately. I have an abnormally large amount of homework this trimester, driving school Monday through Friday, Japanese class on Thursdays and work on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night. As you can see, my schedual is very full. Today I get to add another "to do" to the list...

I'm the facking letters columnist for Gameforms baby.

YEEHAW!

I got both an e-mail and an IM from one Ed McGlothlin of Gameforms today. Aparently I rule as I beat out 18 other applicants for the job. I like to think this officially makes me a much more awesome person than 18 other people. I'm excited for the job. I mean, it's not like I'm lead porn tester at Hustler International but I think this ranks up there. At 16 I'm probably the youngest staff member on the site but I think I'll do a respectable job. If anyone can handle fanboyish ranting on a variety of video game related subjects it's me. Gameforms is a fairly respectable site so this should be fun, despite what previous letter columnist/psycho John Hummel has to say. Just kidding about that psycho part but I'd be lying if I said he didn't seem bitter. I hope that everything works out and the job isn't too demanding. Wow, I finally have a respectable job in the video game media. A respectable job that pays no money. Awesome.

In other news, I'm taking Drivers Ed. Drivers Education is taught by this crazy lady who I believe hates children, and from what I've learned this seems to be the only qualification most teachers need. There's two classes available, one from 3 to 5 and one from 6 to 8. The kids in the 3 to 5 class all seem to be pretty mild mannered respectable people, mostly nice girls who smile at my comments and say things like "Chris, you're so funny!" Gabe Rosenthal is also in there. Gabe has some condition which makes him a complete nerdo who likes to engage people in conversations on topics they have no interest in. Oh and cutting you off whenever you try to change the subject. Trying to talk to this kid about selling him my Evangelion DVDs was a bad idea since it only resulted in a breakdown of his favorite anime series' and how he gets bootleg manga I've never heard of over the internet. Anyway, 3 to 5 sucks compared to the 6 to 8 class. This kid Corey I knew from Middle School is there, along with some other great kids including good friend David Lawall (Who we call David "The Wall" after the Pink Floyd album/movie thing). These kids seem to love me and the class is overall a hilarious experience, especially when we start discussing such important driving topics as "How to outrun the cops." We had to watch this driving video from the 80s in class. I swear if I had to live through the 80s I probably would've killed myself. Anyways, it had this ass-terrible 80s soundtrack and everytime it came on I started raving in my seat. Then, commenting on anti-lock breaks, some girl in the video said "You have to pump it!" and squeezed her hand in a suggested manner. I love educational films. We had to watch another one where some black guy randomly popped out of fucking nowhere to educate some kid about driving safely. I mean out of nowhere. Like, the kid will be driving and the dude pops onto the hood and starts talking about airbags or some shit like that. Reminded me a lot of "Don't Copy That Floppy." Jive black guys always seem the right choice for educational programs, like Levar from reading rainbow. What's up with Levar?

Some girl in the back of the classroom hates me for some unknown reason. Apparently she thinks she's more of a nerd than I am or something. It's asinine. I hate when people try to make their hatred for my personality public fact whether than just keeping it to themselves. My view on it is this. I could be a respectable young student and everyone could not be too concerned with me, maybe I'd have a few friends and everyone would be pretty normal. Or I can be my own outragous self and have nearly everyone love me and a few stragglers bitterly despise my guts. I choose option B, because every genius has his critics. I just wish they'd get over themselves.

Also, Home Alone by Special D is my new theme music. That is all. We return you to your reguarly schedualed internet.
