    ...Guess who just got his hands on a computer for 4.5 seconds!  I did!

    Here is the run down:  I get no reception here on my cell phone and the house itself has no out of area calling what-so-ever.  This means I can't send or receive any calls from all of the people I really care about.  It also means that I can't orchestrate someone to take my place at work on Friday (thus I might be out of a job by the time I get back).  "How am I communicating with all of you now?," you might be asking yourself.  Well, I managed to stumble upon this computer in the guy who runs this place's house, but I will not have regular access to it so its basically a no go on socialization altogether.  The only things I have going for me right now are summer reading and Pokemon (I beat Sapphire in one sitting on the way up here...)

    This is where you guys come in.  If you do attempt to reach me on my cellular phone and if you can withstand the horribly outdated voice mail message where I tell you that I lost my charger (I found it a day after the message was recorded), feel free to leave me a pleasant greeting to hear upon my arrival to a place with reception.  It would make my life to sample the kind embrace of a friendly voice after being couped up in a small house with 9 other people for a week.  I already have a dozen humorous and gross anecdotes to share so prep yourselves for the worst.

    Attention friends of the Live Journal variety, from now till August 19 I will be taking a family vacation to a place called Lake Placid.  My main concern about going to this location is not only that the name of the lake rhymes with the word "flaccid," but also I fear a social falling out from some of my buddies.  Already I am missing two borderline holidays (The Birthday of Dan and Jenna (Happy Birthday Jenna!) and the premier of Snakes on a Plane) and I couldn't possibly feel worse about that.  What I'm saying is that I wish to hang with the following people upon my return:

    Dan/Jenna
    Either of the Daves
    Justin (with perhaps the added bonus of Lisa*)
    Patrick! (at the Disco*)
    Nick
    Laurens (singular)

    *=super bonus surprise

    Remember to save up all your stories and tell me about them.  I'll be playing vast amounts of Pokemon (beating XD and Sapphire/catching all the pre-evolutions that I can) so anything you can muster up will be fantastic.  Call me too.

    I'm leaving to go down the shore bright and early tomorrow morning, which gives me mixed feelings.  On the one hand I'm looking forward to the vast amounts of unmarked funs that may result from my leave.  Yet deep down I feel bad for leaving some of my favorite people unattended in my absence.  It's too late to change my mind anyway, but I've never wished I could be in two places at once as much as I do now. 

    So this is basically just a heads up to anyone that may read this.  From tomorrow till one week from tomorrow I'll be down my the atlantic ocean soaking my whatsitcalled.  I'll miss you all.  If anyone would like to contact me, my number is (862)-684-0242.

    Good morning everybody!  Sure it's far too early to write productively, but I feel as if there are so many things going right in my life presently that it would be a crime to keep them all from you.  So without further ado, I'm going to list off all the things that make being Peter so amazing!

    1)  A for a final grade in AP Physics as well as an A for the final marking period.  This was achieved by agreeing to go to both George Washington and Anthony Wayne Middle School and teaching no less than 5 science classes a day about the wonders of the physical world.  Now this whole project has been worrying me for quite some time (having had no prior experience in teaching).  However, with my two wonderful partners Lauren B. and John Spaulding, we were able to pull off one of the most amazing mass organic battery creating labs this side of Turkey complete with a 100% success ratio.  We received honorable mention from every class we taught and a verbal agreement with Mr. V that our grades would reflect our efforts completely.  Although it was a wonderful experience in and of itself, I sure am glad it's over though.  Still, it was great fun to see my brother in his own school.  I sure did make a spectacle of myself every time I saw him in the hallway, which was quite fun.

    2)  Very good chance of getting my old summer job back.  Visbeen Construction (the company I have been working for over the past few summers), recently informed me that I should begin looking for another working opportunity seeing as how they have little work for a child of non-Mexican decent.  However, they just acquired two more jobs and are desperately in need of a helping hand.  This is where my father comes into the picture.  Being one of the leading workers of the company, daddy dearest explained to one of the bosses that he would be unable to conduct a safe workplace without someone strong like his son to work with him and keep a clean work area.  Boss said he would consider it among other things.  If this works out, I could be getting 10+ dollars an hour through working to keep clean an air conditioned hospital!  I shall be keeping my fingers crossed on this one.  Hope you all will be doing the same, though if it ends up falling through I wont hold it against anyone in particular.

    3)  Greg Debel recently shelled out $700 on Cobalt Flux metal DDR pads, which I will be raping the hell out of over the next month or so.  Their sturdiness and sensitivity is simply astounding.  My only complaint is that playing without shoes can really tear up your feet and I'm not used to having my feet covered while dancing.  Also, it's hard to slide one foot to another arrow because of the friction experienced between my shoes and the Lexan covering.  I'll keep at it though until I get used to their intense awesomeness.  Can't wait to AA my first 10 footer though.  Should be an intense road from here on out.  I'll make sure that I dance ritualistically in order to get back into decent shape and maybe loose a few pounds while having fun in the process.  Doubles mode still serves as an exciting frontier for me and I intend to be mastering it soon.

    4)  Went to go see my friend Lauren H. at work today, which made her smile.  I don't know about you, but I'll count that as a small victory in my book.  Too bad we're both such busy people, but alas everything can be broken down to those despicable Laws of the Universe.  Also, I recently realized that I really don't have to worry about the way I act around friends because no matter what, they will still stick with me whether I be loud or quite, funny or corny.  Thank you all <3.

    As you were.

    Well, the infamous "devil's day" has come and almost gone with little to leave in its wake.  I for one am extremely disappointed, but I didn't expect much to happen anyway.  Funny how some kids tried to get out of working today by saying that it was a "religious holiday."  Figures that someone would think of a way to turn something evil into another reason to laze around (not saying that I blame them for it having personally found it funny myself).  Presently I feel compelled by a certain force (satan?) to write a journal entry, if not only as a memorial to quite possibly my one and only day of the devil.  Where shall I begin..?

    For awhile now I've been stressing out over this physics project whose due date is growing increasingly imminent.  Therefore, to calm my nerves, I issued a physics meeting so that me and my group can assemble our ideas and come up with a definitive plan.  Our objective is to teach a few middle school classes about the wonders of physics in order to stimulate their lust for knowledge (things are looking down already).  Our performance is based solely on whether or not the teacher of the class finds our lesson interesting with bonus points for every student that walks out of the room with their limbs intact.  Needless to say things are looking mighty grim for us presently.  My idea was to have the students go off into groups and create batteries made from organic materials to power an LED light bulb, to which my accomplice John responded in the negative.  Well screw him we're doing it anyway.  Also, on our quest for supplies I was able to meet Lauren B.'s father, which was an experience in and of itself.  A few things are still up in the air, but if I can manage to come up with a good enough Power Point presentation, everything else will fall into place.

    Going to a Roger Waters concert with my dad soon.  Should prove to be a splendid time.  If memory serves, he and his cronies will be playing all of Dark Side of the Moon.  A laser light show shall be included!

    Dear LiveJournal buddies and the like,

    I am writing to tell you all that I have very little to write about right now.  I took the SATs this morning.  Everyone was hyping them up to be some sort of long, boring, and crazy monster.  I guess I have a spongy brain and a steely resolve for I saw nothing too daunting about the test, save the early hour that I had to get up.  The rain was most unpleasant though and mid test a bunch of landscapers came by to clear up a fallen tree in the schools parking lot, thus making an ungodly amount of noise.  Quite annoying...  I blame all of my good SAT luck on a certain person who wished me luck no less than three times.  Thank you for your concern.  It really helped me stay focused while reading the passages about a passage which in turn was written about mid 1800's authors.  It baffles me how they snuck that one in there.

    Upon arriving home, I was greeted by my brother in front of my house wielding two umbrellas.  He handed me one and told me that we were both locked out of the house.  Nice one little bro.  We were then forced to wait for my parentals to return, both of whom were out picking up my grandparents from the airport.  It was a pleasant experience being reunited with my Oma and Opa, but I soon realized that prolonged exposure to Holland had given them severe English amnesia.  They need a few days to brush up on the language before I can hold a real conversation with either of them.  It was nice just being able to see them though, if not only for a short time (jet lag gets you hard when your as old as they are).

    And now we get to the portion of my LJ entry where I talk about life and all of its wonders!  There is nothing much to say except for the fact that I feel really really good lately.  It's an amazing sensation, being pleased with the direction your life is going and secure enough in yourself that you aren't consistently worried about whether or not your a pain to others.  I now know that even if I do have a few enemies here and there, for the most part people honestly do appreciate me, which is all I really crave in life.  For the most part I can attribute all of this to one person in particular to whom I extend a heartfelt thank you.

    And now, back to the show (whatever that's supposed to mean, I'm done with writing for today).

    What a boring day this has turned out to be. Home alone all day and all I managed to get done is cleaning up the house and then getting locked out of it. What a pleasant thank you. Last time I ever clean that ungrateful bastard. I wont let myself get too discouraged though, for each of these instances are top notch examples of the dreaded "laws of the universe." For example, a Sunday must be boring. No ifs ands or buts about it and certainly no way around it. Never have I ever enjoyed myself on the Lord's day and never shall I enjoy myself as long as the law is established. Same goes for being locked out of the house, however I quickly remedied that problem by breaking in to my own house through my sister's bedroom window. Never mind that now though, I have bigger fish to fry.

    Friday through Saturday marked the arrival of my semi-annual friendship appreciation sleepover. Everyone showed up around 7PM (with the exception of Pat who was three something hours late) wielding great shinning smiles on their faces. The display of friendship shown that night/morning was enough to make a young lad weep tears of joy. Fun was had by all, yet we still mourned for the few who could not make it (your presence was missed). Highlights of the party included: pedophilia in a chocolate factory, Robotic Chickens, golden eyes, table round truth or dare, chilling in the basement, 99 stock Super Smash Bros. competitions, 3AM sword fighting, and Mario Cart racing. I would like to take this time to thank everyone who could make it for being very cool and not leaving me with a huge mess on my hands. I highly appreciate it. Also, anyone who did not make it shall be punished by being made the guinea pigs for any trial of my new found love of baking. You have been warned.

    I felt a need to write because I find myself needing a reminder of what is going on in life. Also, I'm feeling a very pressing boredom coming over me and I need something to focus on before I explode. My long abandoned LiveJournal was the first thing to come to mind.

    Yesterday was a useless day. No one was in school and the teachers felt the day could be salvaged via tons and tons of busy work. The bell was very much appreciated. Sasha was going to the mall and graciously invited anyone who would like to come Mother's Day shopping to join her. Although grateful for the invitation, I was forced to respectfully decline the offer for I had promised my brother that I'd attend his play. I still did end up going to her house briefly and, although GANTZ was not on the menu (god I cant wait for more), I still had a delightful time with Sasha, Patrick, Jimmy, and Lauren (who recently took the exciting leap from Light to Standard mode in DDR). Also, I made the discovery that although straitening my hair will make it soft, it does not do much else.

    The play itself was mega dullsville and the singing was so bad that even my brothers wonderful acting and playful antics could not help its cause. The only redeeming quality of the play was the fact that I ran into Lauren-chan who I had a delightful little chat with. After the play had finished, my brother introduced me to his wide palette of friends, consisting partially of Jon Sanchez's little sister, a gangster, Benjamin Franklin, and the princess of spiders. Needless to say, I feared for his life.

    Today was the beginning of an all-to-average Saturday. My only accomplishments today include going for a walk, bring a job application to Drug Fair, and going Mother's Day shopping. I now dread the arrival of Saturdays because it usually means a day of social deprivation, having little to no skill in amassing a definite plan with anyone myself. My expectations for the Summer Vacation do no look much different (although I hope that I am wrong). Seriously, my only real friends nowadays include Pat, the Laurens, Sasha, Dan, and Dave and hanging out sessions with them are rare and spuratic. I must do something about this. At least I still have next Saturday to look forward to (party), as well as a few little projects which include present making and constructing my own official arcade grade DDR pads. Wish me luck!

    P.S. LiveJournal spell check for "GANTZ" produces the word "CUNT'S" as a possible alternative.
