I woke up to “Timothy, it’s Ben Anible, he’s planning airsoft.”
“Whaa…”
*dad hands me phone*
“*incoherent noises from me* …hello!”
Ben Anible, Ben and Daniel C, Benjamin and Nolan M, Peter and I all went down to a little-used trail on South Hill and played airsoft (I tried to get sam and mike to come and Ben Myers wasn’t around) It was lots of fun and I think everyone had a good time.
I just ordered two pizzzzas, and I’m really hungry. Woo!
Ooof. Pain haunts me. So I went over to Sam’s house on Firday, at about 5:00 (PM), played Airsoft with Weilin and another dude (Mike Salle) till about 7. Ate pizza, went over to Weilin’s house for the night. Went to sleep at 3:00 AM and Mike woke us all up at 8:00 AM, as well as Weilin’s little sister screaming “NO!”. Went to Sam’s at 10:00 AM, played Airsoft till 12:00 (this time with Weilin’s little brother Wayne, too), at which point we cleaned Sam’s yard for an hour. We ate more pizza and played more Airsoft till about 5:00 PM. *twitch* Too much airsoft. Still fun though.
Well I woke up today thinking “I feel like crap. And I have a feeling I’ll feel MORE like crap later in the day.” So I’m home sick, coughing and sneezing a lot. I spent most of my day watching the news, generally being bored and not doing anything. I stepped outside and shot a few crows and squirrels off of our bird feeder, which was more than amusing. Anyways, I somehow doubt I’ll be in school tomorrow, but you never know. Sitting around doing nothing wouldn’t be so bad if it were sunny outside…then I’d have a reson to sit outside and shoot stuff.
Yesterday was nice, I wasn’t feeling too bad and I basically just talked to people on IM all day. Daniel came over for a few hours and we put silcone on all my guns and stuff, played Ninja Gaiden and talked. I sent him home with realy cold shoes (i put them in my freezer). Lots of fun.
It’s Friday. Spring Break is technically gone. Oh well.
The new gun arrived, and it’s pretty darn cool. Weighs as much as my MP5 (with magazine and BB’s in it), and quite possibly is more powerful. Obviously wont be as accurate, but it definately owns the lame USP. I’m pretty pleased, to say that much.
I had Daniel, Jesse, Benjamin and Nolan over last night, that was lots of fun. We played Halo, mostly, watched RvB, all good fun. Jesse didn’t actually spend the night, but was around the majority of the time. Just vacuumed and aired out my room, so it’s all back to normal now!
I hope the background pleases y’all. Took me about a dozen sepereate image searches to find it. It’s big enough, but tell me if it goes off your screen or something.
I’ve been developing a sore throat, which has now stepped up to coughing and sneezing. I haven’t gotten sick this year *ahem* yet, and I suppose the timing is good – right when school is starting back up.
This is more of an update than a post, but whatever, beggars can’t be choosers. 😛
Holy crap. It’s Tuesday. My break. My prescious break. Where have you gone?
Tim’s been having a very strange day. I’m trying to get my problems sorted before tomorrow, an ortho appointment awaits me. I really don’t think I’m gonna allow myself to talk about what’s on my mind, but there’s just been a lot of stuff going on with Gwen and I. It’s been really frustrating, the whole situation, and it’s never gonna be resolved. That’s the desperation I feel right now. I can’t see a single way this would ever work out happily. Yeah, it’s kind of strange saying that when only a few of you actually understand what the issue is, but you’ll live, I’m certain.
In the midst of my distress…absolutely nothing has happened. Well, sort of. The LAN party was awesome, we played Sven Co-op and Halo and it was great fun all around. Went to Jesse’s house on Sunday. We attempted to play Airsoft, but high winds and 20 degree weather wouldn’t permit. So we just shot Jesse 5 or 6 times. That was fun. Then there was Scouts on Monday. All good.
Today consisted of nothing, woke up, got on the computer, etc.. I’ve spent the last half of my day contemplating this whole thing…*sigh*. God has a plan, I guess.
The accessories I ordered from Airsoft Atlanta arrive tomorrow. The Desert Eagle and mag arrive Friday. Assuming the gun actually arrives on time, then I’ll have an airsoft party Friday or Saturday. I’ll probably invite Jesse, Benjamin and Nolan over for the night Thursday as my bday ‘party’. Haven’t actually asked yet, but that’s in order.
Bedtime has come. Hopefully ortho won’t be too bad.
EDIT: I keep forgetting to note: the play last Wednesday was AWESOME. The acting and singing was amazing, though the stage crew…*cough, cough* sucked.
Can Tim make it through the day? We shall see…
Been waiting for Friday for a long time. Seems like a really long week, because it has been. Managed to do nothing yesterday, apparantly a friend is having a LAN party on Saturday, that should be fun.
I ordered another gun! The KWC Desert Eagle .50AE Dual Tone, with a magazine (90.98 with shipping). I also got a Right Thigh Holster, a Metal Pistol Case, and another MP5 Magazine (57.40 with shipping). Using the money from a returned mp3 player, and 40 bucks from me, I should have enough. OH! I haven’t posted what I got for mah bday.
Previous guns and stuff were an early present, so the list is low.
New watch (old one broke)
Newsboys Hymn CD (…)
Peeps (Easter time…)
MP3 player (holds 30 songs….it’s back at Best Buy now…contributing to the D.E)
Sewing Kit (for Boy Scouts, I guess….only cost 3.99, so not really a big deal..hehe)
Christopher sent me a 100 dollar Amazon gift card, and my gma/gpa sent me 10 dollars. So it turned out ok, present-wise.
This new watch hurts to wear….it’s cool looking, but it hurts my wrist. :-/
Anyways…I just finished a book report, time to read the comics.
After a rather strange week, things have been slowly getting back on track.
I dscovered the secret to my ups and downs after school. I just need something to do, that will occupy my time for 20-30 minutes. This wouldn’t be a problem except nobody is online till like 7:00, and Ninja Gaiden is so hard it’s too frustrating to do it in long periods of time. Stuff like cleaning my room and sewing patches onto my uniform works, but it also requires that the room be dirty or I have patches to sew on. I hope there will be a solution.
My USP arrived (again) and I think there was something initially wrong with the old one. It cocks much faster, with less clicking and banging. Hopefully that wasn’t just due to wear and tear. I’ll be lubing the barrels sometime in the near future, though probably after my birthday, seeing as I may be getting another pistol. Hopefully.
I’ved been getting worried as my birthday approaches…I haven’t gotten any birthday cards. Birthday cards are usually my main source of money, since I never get money for Christmas. Maybe my parents are keeping them? :-/
Another thing I’ve been thinking about is a summer job. I’ll be 15, and mowing just doesn’t cut it for pure mass in money. You can always take on more customers, but you have to try and maintain the ones you have now, which I’m doing a pretty poor job of. I was never a really great worker, to my own dissapointment. I once had a job walking a dog twice a day, 5 dollars for every hour I walked her. I made 300 dollars in a month if I actually did it right. But foolish, stupid 6th grader me, I slacked off and they fired me. Same thing could happen with one of my best mowing customers. She asked me to shovel her sidewalk and driveway for a month, despite my objections, and gave 50 dollars up front. I did it two, possibly three times. I basically ripped her of 35 bucks. I really hope she either didn’t notice, or didn’t mind. That’d be 15 bucks every 10 days, down the drain. *sigh*
Off to go read the comics.
Today was pretty good. Church was weird, but I had Jesse, Benjamin, Nolan, and Daniel over to shoot some airsoft. My MP5 hurts like CRAP! I have half a dozen welts all over my body. War wounds, shall we say. Despite an awesome day, I’ve experienced another low.
I just can’t take school. It feels like I’m holding my breath all week and I don’t get air until the weekend. But I develop a growing air deficit, and I don’t get the air I so badly need until a break. It’s a weird metaphor, but it’s how I feel. The depressing thing is, I know I can be a 4.0 student. But it takes so much work! I can just slack off and maintain a 3.4, so I just do that, when I know I can do better. I know I’ve hardly had any school the past two weeks, but I know what’s coming. There’s isn’t a single break in all of March. I pray the Lord will keep me going for that long.
Please, pray that I can use the gifts God has given me. I know I can do better, but I just feel like it’s for naught.
::sigh:: Back to school. Though I feel quite rested, but that’s not saying a whole lot.
I spent yesterday home doing homework and memorizing stuff, until about 1:00. After that I watched TV, then Daniel came over and we played withour OUR NEW AIRSOFT GUNS! Everything worked better than I expected. My MP5 rocks. We shot off about 400 rounds worth in total, and it was a lot of fun. I now have a cardboard dude as a target in my bedroom. It’s soooo cool!
I won’t bother racking up the score for the Colorado trip. It was below -10, to be sure. Though my homeroom/DDP teacher started throwing floppys at me when I told him where I’d been. It was funny though.
Anyways, off to read up on HBO.
Sometimes I wish I weren’t a human….then I’d at least have something to differentiate me from everyone else. That might at least explain why I’m now slightly emaciated and my hands are forever blue. Oh well, I dream on…
These past few days have held few suprises. I won’t detail the Sam situation, because I doubt it concerns many of you. Suffice to say it is resolved for the time being. I’ve finally gotten to a semi-regular posting point, so I hope I’ve appeased all of you.
Colorado arrives in exactly one week now, and it’s gonna suck. Plans to have Daniel come along fell through, so now it’s just me, in Colorado with my parents with epople I don’t know and possibly won’t like, with only two things to do: skiing or nothing. Colorado is great, but not when there’s nobody there. Skiing’s great, but not when nobody’s there. I won’t even have full access to a computer there. It definately will suck….only way out is to pay 180 dollars which right now is reserved for the airsoft guns I will hopefully order today or tomorrow, optimally arriving the day I get back.

Pictures for those curious ones.
Awesome Halo theme released at HBO today. Check it out. It’s now my startup theme.

Cool stuff.
Ah, another day. I keep having his weird image when I wake up – of DNA seperating into strands…..then, as I try and put the strands back together, I realize this is a metaphor for sleep. It’s really very strange.
Not much has progressed since last. Decided on the guns and accessories that I will be buying, but my dad has become a hazard. He’s asked Mr. Mcconnell about it, and Mr. Carcich too. Both of them weren’t opposed, which is indeed a good thing. However, I have to wait for Mr. Mcconnell to give the thumbs up to Jesse. Another week or two to wait. ::mutter::
Waking up. So tired.
I’ve decided somewhat on which Airsoft guns I’m going to buy. It came to be a matter of practicality and pricing. So, I’m going with a UHC SD-3 MP-5, and a UHC USP. Together, they cost 65 dollars, and with an extra magazine each and bullets, it’s gonna cost a lot. I’m probably ordering bulk order with Daniel and Peter, so maybe that will cut down on the shipping costs. Hopefully.
School-wise, this week hasn’t been so good. Screwed up my first homework assignment for Bio in this semester, and for German. I forgot to get a signature for English…not good stuff. On the bright side I don’t have school Friday, and I’m going to a Boy Scout thing with Benjamin, Jesse, and Daniel on Saturday. Other than that, not much has happened.
Begin another boring school day. At the moment I’m fairly tired, so forgive me for anything I might do in the next hour.
I had Benjamin, Jesse, Sam, and Nolan over to spend the night on Friday night, after the youth group thing. That was a LOT of fun. We spent most of our time playing games, usually Raven Shield. I finally found the CD Code for it, so I can finally play online. My mind is really blank at the moment, but we played Warcraft 3, and something else, I think. Can’t really remember.
Sunday was as usual, church, but nobody came over, most of us were either too tired or had just seen eachother all Saturday….more likely the latter.
The latest thing I’ve been looking at is airsoft guns. For those of you who don’t know – Airsoft guns are similar to a BB gun, or a paintball gun, in that they shoot low-velocity rounds. They actually shoot .2 cm (or sometimes .12 cm) plastic rounds, at, usually 200 FPS (feet per second). They can cost anywhere for 20 dollars to 2250 dollars, so it really varies what they are. The main thing about Airsoft is that it’s realistic. All the guns you can buy are usually real guns, like a Baretta 9mm, a Desert Eagle .50, or a Kalishnakov. Basically, if you can find it in real life, you can find it in Airsoft. I won’t go into too much detail right now, but I’ve been looking into saving up for one of them. They could be our next laser tag. Daniel isn’t sure if he can get one though, but Jesse is! Benjamin said he’s working on it too, but no definites.
I’m off to go read up on the comics.
