Ah, I love what can happen to people when alcohol is involved. I can't say I never drink, but this is why I drink VERY infrequently. :)

I suppose Lio, that you're right. As much that's changed in me since we graduated from our wonderful high school, a bit of the old Gatekeeper still resurfaces every now and then during times of stress. And especially during finals, as I'm sure you understand. ;) But, I didn't take anything acree said as an insult to my manhood. I just didn't appreciate being quoted on something I probably didn't say. Besides, we were talking about Mullitor and how much he's getting. I'll be the first one to admit that I'm not getting any, and I've never got any, and I probably never will get any. So, uh, there. :) But, Lio, I appreciate you being up front with me, as you've always been. And as far as MT goes, I don't know WHY any of you would believe the lies that spewed forth from that fucking loser's mouth. But, and I'll eat a bit of humble pie here, I should have listened to all of you about being his friend in the first place. If I've ever seen a waste of all our oxygen, it's definitely him.

Oh! And remember at the prom when we were dueling Yannis? Heh. We should do that again sometime...if we ever grow our hair back. And, if you don't totally hate me for some reason, we should hang out with all the guys sometime over the winter break. I think it'd be cool to catch up at least once before the 5 year reunion. And acree, I apologize for my initial outburst. Usually, I only say certain things in order to get a rise out of people, and generally, I succeed at that here. But, really, you're entitled to all your opinions (as we all are) and I do respect them. So don't take too much offense to me. ;)

Heh. Mullitor. A definite superhero in my book. And yeah, he DOES kind of look like Kato. Creepy.

Yeah, I agree with Tim. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the porn, and mullets definitely scream class. But the only thing wrong with the porn poster is that is pushes everyones rants down and people might not get a chance to read them before they're pushed off the page. (And we're all too lazy to push the "Show More Stuff" button or whatever it is).

Well, Pappy, you really can't expect too many people you don't know to be reading this site. I really don't expect that you'd want to give out 10,000 admin accounts to total strangers anyway. But, I've always had a healthy amount of respect for you as a person, so I'd like to make a bit of a personal request.

If at any time you feel the need to say something about me, whatever it might be, good or bad, please do so publicly. I have nothing to hide from anyone, nor am I scared of anyone's reaction to anything anyone might say. As far as you being "brutal", I highly doubt it's that bad. People accuse me of being a cynical, blunt asshole all the time, but when I turn around and ask them, "Yeah, but am I HONEST?", they can do nothing but bow their heads and agree. There's a fine line between brutal and honest, and the two usually go hand in hand.

Besides, I've never known any of us to think twice about saying something straight to somebody's face, regardless of the consequences. Despite the individual differences I may have had with certain people, I always appreciated that fact about everyone, and I would consider myself a terrible person if I didn't tell people exactly how I felt about certain things. And really, that's how I avoid talking behind other people's backs. I can recall very few instances where I've said something about someone that I hadn't already said straight to the person's face. And now, I must get back to work in this fun-filled library. Adieu.

Wow, this MC person sure complains about her life a lot. Sometimes it really pisses me off how people can bitch and bitch and bitch and not realize that the simple key to making things better is taking your life by the balls (or the female equivalent if you're female) and telling it who's in charge. This seemed to be a problem with many of the fine people in the kind group that took me in when I suddenly appeared at Branford High School. Of course, I was one of them. And I emphasize "was" very strongly. But from the small amount of contact I've had with the old gang since graduation (namely with Flying Tim, Calliander, and Caniprokis), I'm glad to see that everyone has worked out the some of the kinks in their lives and are trying to achieve their goals.

Of course, I'm sure a lot of you really don't care what's been going on in my life, but then again, nobody's forcing you to read this page. I don't frequent Branford as much as I used to, namely because I moved out of that town 2 years ago, and then my mom moved out this past summer, so I really have no reason to go there. Also, an ex-friend of mine with the initials MT (who is more commonly known as "Fucking Piece of Shit") decided to tarnish my reputation with a nasty rumor by telling someone I was gay, and then it spread like wildfire from there. Of course, I hanlded this with all the people that I still call my "friends", and everyone else can go to hell.

It was then that I realized that I needed to get back in the graces of friends that actually gave two shits about me, so I started hanging out with my North Branford gang again, and that was probably the best decision I could have made. Unlike the Fucking Piece of Shit who I thought was my friend, these people were actually there for me when I sort of had a mini-breakdown during October of last year. Everything that was bugging me came to a head all at once, and I almost didn't go back to Bentley, but it's then that I realized what I mentioned before. I had to tell my life who was in charge. And I did just that.

So since then, major changes have been occuring with the man so many of you used to call "Greasy Eddie" (thanks, Ali). I saw how good my best friend had done with it (lost about 80 pounds in 8-10 months), so I decided to try the Atkins Diet back in February. Man, was it the best decision I ever made. Sure, I had to give up all of the carb-loaded food I had grown (fat) to love, but replacing that with all the meat I could eat made up for it. I started in February at around 240 and at the end of this past summer I was down to 180, where it's holding steady. I also decided it was time to axe the long hair back in April, so I did that too. The way I used to keep it (you all remember...really tight with 10 milticolored elastics going down) was putting a large strain on my front hairline, and I don't want to be bald at 20, so I got rid of it all. Now I have a nice, normal, guinea haircut.

And boy, what a difference 12 inches of hair and 60 pounds makes. People actually talk to you. But really, I couldn't give two shits about everyone else. For once in my life, I feel good about myself. I'm in control, and I'll be damned if anyone's going to shit on me ever again. (So none of you end up being like our friend Fucking Piece of Shit. Okay?) That's it, I'm done.
