  School is going great so far.

  I got an A- on two of my midterms, Physics and Electrical Circuit Analysis, and I got a B on my other midterm for English 252 (Great Works: Medievel to 17th Century Literature). I was expecting to get a C or worse on my English midterm, so I must be a really good guesser. I could have done much better on my Physics and Electrical Circuit Analysis midterms, which were both easy. I accidentally left out a 5 in one of the questions and miscalculated in Electrical Circuit Analysis, otherwise I would have had a perfect score. On my Physics midterm I lost 3 points for not calculating wavelength on one of the problems, I must have not noticed that part.

  I can't wait to get financial aid. I have to wait for another 4 to 6 weeks, because Cal Poly has been waiting for my mom's tax return. I had her fax it in a couple weeks ago, but she had to fax it again with her signature on it. As soon as I get my financial aid I'm going to get a PS3, because I'm tired of paying Microsoft $50 a year to play games online and I don't want to pay another $100 for their wireless adapter. I should have known that the PS3 would be cheaper in the long run. There are tons of sweet games on the PS3 that I want to play, like MGS4, Killzone 2, Resistance 1 & 2, Uncharted 1 & 2, inFamous, and Ratchet and Clank games. I'm also going to get Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on the PS3. I don't care if the downloadable maps come out for it later than on the Xbox 360, I'm willing to wait.

  I need a new PC the most!

  Yeah, I don't just want the new PC Gamespot is giving away... I NEED IT!! It's been a long time since my last blog post and I've been through a lot since then. My old gaming rig got stolen, I got arrested a few times, and I was homeless for a while (over 4 months), but it seemed like a long time.

  Of course, now I live in a sober living home, I'm back in school and I have an HP mini 1000, which is barely fast and powerful enough to run Windows XP. My current netbook (mini laptop) just doesn't cut it. It's small and very portable, but has a slow processor (Intel Atom 1.6 Ghz), less than a gig of ram, an integrated graphics card, a 16 GB solid state hard drive, and it doesn't even have a disc drive. The only games I can run are NES, SNES, Gameboy Advance and surprisingly N64 mods. I not only need that shiny, new PC for school and programming, but I need it to play my old PC games as well as Crysis and Star Wars: The Old Republic when it comes out. I simply can't afford to buy a new PC, so I'm stuck with my HP mini for now, which I use to check Gamespot daily for reviews, previews and movies of all the games I want. Please, give me the new PC.

  Cops Really Like My Approach

  This morning (Sun. 3/16/08 ) I woke up early at about 10:30 am and I was listening to some music for a while. It wasn't too loud, because I don't think it woke up my homie on the couch, but my neighbor rushed in, waking up my homie, walked up to my room and started 8****ing at me. She was yelling crap like: "you're disturbing the peace," "marijuana is illegal," bla, bla, bla, bla! There were two other guys that stopped by right before she came in, they were sitting in the same room and they said: "We have cannabis cards, it's medicinal," but she kept 8****ing and she said that she called the cops already. I told her she was over-reacting, because it was almost 11:00 am, but then she started 8****ing about how I played my music last night, but she didn't complain or bang on the wall, so I had no idea she even noticed. After hearing this stupid, anal beezy for a few seconds I had enough, so I told her to #*** off and get the #*** out of my apartment, because she was trespassing. I literally had to gently push her out of my apartment, shut the door, and lock it. The two guys that stopped by started tripping out about the cops, but I told them that they have nothing to worry about and that the pigs won't even see us. They have medical cards anyway, so they can legally carry weed. They were a couple of cowards, so they immediately bailed. About ten or fifteen minutes later a cop knocks on the door, I look through the peephole in the door, and I ask through the shut (and locked) door: "Can I help you, officer?" He replies: "Yeah, can you open the door?" Of course, I say no and that I'm not going to do that, he asks: "Why not?" and I reply with: "because I don't open the door for cops." He then says something like: "I see... can I get your name? I just want your first." I respond: "Just call me... Jason," then I tell him that this is just a case of some crazy girl, complaining about a little bit of music and that I turned it off now. He asks me something like: "What about the marijuana?" I respond with: "There's no marijuana here, officer. The girl next door is crazy." Then he says: "I really like your approach, have a nice day," he starts walking off and I reply: "Thanks, you have a nice day too, officer."

  The cop didn't care about marijuana, he's most likely for legalizing it anyway. He probably smokes weed from the evidence locker, like a lot of them. Most cops around here don't care about cannabis, they only ask about it if some dumb 8**** complains about it. Later that night I got a call from my friend and he asked about it. He was concerned and thought that the pigs could get a search warrant soon, but they don't have any probable cause or evidence. They're not going to deal with a bunch of paperwork for a warrant to search a college apartment that MIGHT have marijuana.
