Hopefully getting an network extender

I have no idea what that is, but from what I have been told it's meant to widen the range of an internet signal. Meaning I can be further away from an internet signal and still be able to receive it. This is a good thing and it sounds great that we might just get one, along with a new USB adapter that I hope to get in the coming days. Only problem is this, my father. He's always thinking with his wallet and if something is in his eyes as too expensive, he won't budge. This is for everything, from our internet to our groceries to my health.

I'm not kidding. I was sick for almost a week a while back, hacking and coughing, I thought I was going to vomit up my lungs. All I could do was either stay in bed or actually be awake and be on the computer, this is before the internet started fizzing out mind you. And he thought I was fibbing the whole thing! Not one mention of taking me to the doctor, and when it was mentioned he would give a sharp no.

"The doctor is too expensive, I'm not wasting money on her. She probably isn't even that sick." So he says...

Then he gives me cold suppressants thinking it's medicine and that it'll make me feel better. Mind you, this is stuff they have been forcing down my throat since I was 6. I never took the children's stuff, I was given the harsh adult stuff that tasted well....like NiteQuil...I've been given the stuff so much that it no longer has any effect on me.

Wait...I was talking about the internet..sorry about that..

Anywho, no progress yet to whether or not the internet is going to get better. My dad has no intention of spending 90$ on an extender that will make surfing the web easier for all of us. He has no intention of spending a lot of money on anything as I've just ranted to you above....

Well, I'll wrap it up here...my hash browns are ready...

'Til next time.

Internet Connection going down the pipes

Even as I write this, my internet is fizzing in and out. Frankly, I'm getting tired of it. At first, I thought maybe the weather is messing with me, but now I think it's my adapter. At the same time though, this has been happening to my older brother on his laptop, while my father's is just fine. My brother has decided to buy me a new adapter, since they aren't that expensive, and if there is still a problem we'll contact our internet provider. We pay a good deal for this Fios for it to start messing up on us. I can barely use my PC Skype and have to rely on my PSP. It's been like this for about a week now...

Even as I write now, it's fizzing again.

Right now it says I'm offline....

Damn it...

Okay, it says I'm online again....but for how long?

Either way, I really do hope this solves itself soon, it's been frustrating me a lot, the stuff I do is really focused on whether or not I have a good internet connection or not. If I have no internet, I can't really do anything.

In Layman's terms, I have no life.

Now it says I'm offline again....

Okay it's back...

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFU-

Money problems as well as other stuff

This is really just a small vent of sorts.

For the love of me, I hate my school sometimes. I want to graduate, don't get me wrong, but graduating is an accomplishment and yet they make us pay for our yearbook as well as our cap and gown. It makes one no longer give a flying fudge about ever waking the grass. It isn't even real grass(it's turf...fake grass)! Maybe I'm the only one flipping out but its been pretty stressful for me to pay for those things, altogether it's 100$, and with my family's current financial status, we don't have money to throw around. Now would would think...

Why not just graduate but not walk the grass? That way you don't need the cap and gown.

Haha, it's not the easy kind sir...or lady. See, if I don't pay that 100$ before I graduate...I don't graduate. YES, I AM BASICALLY PAYING MY SCHOOL TO LET ME GRADUATE. I swear, that cap, gown, and yearbook crap is a front, I just know it. It's a set-up. Even if I don't want them, I still have to pay? What the fudge!

Now, don't get me wrong, we can reduce those dues. By selling cheesecake, cookie dough, or...Tupperware?

Yes....&%$@ING TUPPERWARE!

Now, the more you sell, the more your dues are reduced, seems fair, but you only get almost 10% of the profits! And it's not something you get instantly either, consumers place the order and wait a few months for their product. If I wanted cheesecake or cookie dough, I'd just go to the market and spend a few bucks. These cheesecakes are not worth their price(20 for 12 slices) in disgusting flavors no less. Yeah right, I'll go to Path Mart and get a 12 slice Fudge Brownie cheesecake for 5$ thank you very much! (So obviously this means no one ever buys) It's the same deal with the cookie dough. By the time they get what they ordered, they have probably forgotten what they bought.

Then there is the matter of Tupperware. We all know what that is. Those huge sets of plastic containers that are meant to keep our food fresh that are always on sale in WalMart. Same deal as the former two, you place an order and in a few months you get your crap(expensive crap at that).

So why not just get it at the store?

Exactly. Now you're using common sense!

Either way, the senior class treasury looks like crap, with barely any sales to make prom free. Because that's what it's for, not only to reduce your dues, but reduce the price of prom, and the rest, which is a good deal, go to the school's pocket. I'm glad for this though, I don't have to go to prom, I could give less of a fudge about prom. It's going to be around 140$ a ticket. So if I wanted to bring a guest, I'd have to pay 280$ for the both of us...

Do you know how much I can stuff my face at Olive Garden for that much money? That's not a bad idea in fact!

I'd go on about how the school is trying to make us seniors pay out of our own pocket by comparing what we are able to sell to what the lowerclassmen sell, but then I'd probably get Carpel Tunnel after all the notes I had to write for Anatomy class. So I'll stop here.

First rule of business!

I've never had a blog before, because I don't think anyone would care, but I guess this can be a way to let out when I need to. I can't say I'll be on this everyday though. I might post things I affiliate with in someway(be it fandubs, parodies, song covers, or random announcements)

So, here's to future blogging...maybe

Now let's get to the first rule of business.

Semisoma01 was recently suspended and has had to move to his back-up account, TheAzureCrow. It's most likely obvious that people who were once subbed to him are probably panicked or just WTF about everything. If you need more explaining, here is a video.


Thanks a bunch guys!
