Inkblots for the Soul

Music comes from the soul, that stuff on paper? Just ink. But it's the stuff that tells you what's in the soul. This is my Inkblots, cuz i can't compose!! But hey it's "ink on paper" and i'm much better at writing!

Computer Games

You know when you get a new computer and they have those game demos on them? Yeah, well, my brothers and i have the greatest time playing them and i have to say our favorite is Unreal Tournament. But Demos only have like 10% of the actual game. So one Marching Band competition (Davis) i was sitting with a buddy of mine and he told me he had the full game! I was excited and as i was telling him what my puny demo had, he began flipping out cuz the demo had nothing!!! Well he asked for my number so he could call me and show me what Unreal really was. We finally got our schedules in line today, and i went over to his house to play network with him and his friend. We had a totally blast!! My friend is freakin' amazing, and his buddy isn't too far behind, so i was the least experienced player there (which basically means i was the worst). The first few games were terrible. We were playing Last Man Standing (every man or woman for themselves) and i was out in like 30 seconds (after you die so many times, you're out). We played other types of games, but Last Man Standing was the favorite and by the time i left, i had kicked trash and actually won 2 games. Yeah, i was feeling pretty good about myself, considering the last game i was playing against my friend's friend and two computer players; we eliminated the bots and eventually got to the point where we each had one life- the person who killed the other won. Guess who won.... ME, of course!!! Hee, i loved popping his ego and watching it deflate a tiny bit. :D

So I was just taking one of those new online tests that our teachers are doing... yeah, so I get on and 'bout 3 questions in I realize that I have no idea what the heck the questions are asking. But the nice thing was, if I got the question wrong it told me to guess again, so I ended up with like 68% on the test. But then I went back and found the test I was supposed to take. (Darn foods teacher that teaches some other class about foodservices.) I did pretty good on that one, like a 70% or something like that. But I got gyped(sp?)! I answered some questions right and the darn thing said they were wrong!!! Come Monday I'm gonna have a chat with my teach and ask her why the heck bran wasen't the correct answer for highest in fiber of a wheat grain.......
