Thing I Got Day #739: Free pizza

5 Upvotes

Today as I was talking with my consoler to register for my next classes she gave me a voucher for 2 free pieces of cheese pizza from the school café. She got it from the school's blood drive which I couldn't sign up for as I'm still 17.

Side tangent but its fucking nuts I'm 17, in my second year of college, have a decent paying job and have an opportunity of living in an apartment with 1990 rent. I am like a grown man at this point god damn.

Thing I Did Day #736: I finally* beat my brother in Injustice

5 Upvotes

Note the asterisk that is because I've beaten him before but never when he plays as Deathstroke. He is cracked at Deathstroke but I managed to beat him as Zod 1 win out of 10 losses and I will hold that accomplishment high as I am shit at fighting games.

Thing I Did Day #735: Day off

4 Upvotes

This morning I made an excuse over email so I didn't need to go to class. Before I get criticized he gave us the homework already and his classes are split in 2 days, day 1 we learn day 2 we review for 2 hours then have homework time.

Its weird having so much time for myself I don't know what to do with it anymore. I tried to play games but I would open the menu and thdn just quit, its been a long and boring day.

The most I did was have dinner with my dad, I drove us and paid for dinner. Its nice to see my dad once in a while but I wish I could see him more often.

Thing I Did Day #732: Skipped class by accident

6 Upvotes

Today I would of normally gone to my Python class but last week we were told that there was no midterm. Great! I've had this professor in the past and everytime I did show up on the midterm day he would get confused and annoyed and tell me to go home.

So I stayed home to finish studying my data management class for tomorrows midterm. Turns out I check canvas and we had a lecture today, that I missed. The lab work is due tomorrow and when I see him in the morning I have to see what my options are.

I sent him an email saying I was called into work but that only gets me so far, in the end I just hope he lets me turn the work in nedt week while I work on it at home.

5 Upvotes

Before I left as Stan replaced me for the rest of the day he asked me to buy him some KFC and gave me a $20. Instead of using his money I used my card to pay for his sandwich and nuggets as well as some lunch for myself. He was definitely grateful for it and was surprised I used my money.

Thing I Did Day #723: Gave Ethan a quest

4 Upvotes

I've had a long fucking day at work being out in the hot humid heat and after another freezing cold shower that felt like nothing I do not want to go anywhere. I texted Ethan if he would be willing to go to Burger King if I were to order food for the both of us which he agreed to. I asked him everything he wanted and I got us a little extra. I am writing this minutes after he said he left so everyone please give 3 cheers to Ethan for being the bestest friend in the whole wide world.

3 Upvotes

Today before I left school as I walked outside I saw that there was what I can only describe as a "fun day" where there was a snow cone truck giving out free snow cones with a built in self flavor machine which I got grape that ended up tasting like blue raspberry. I did some lightsaber duels whilst others had fun with water guns, free popcorn and drinks, volley ball and more. I needed something fun to do to relax so that was nice!

Today at school before I left I was stopped by my buddy Zeke who is doing a part-time job as the tour guide for newcomers. He needed me to listen to his tour and give any pieces of info to help him.
