Right now I am way too: awake

I start work in (probably) 36 days... I'm so nervous! :O

Also, yes, I'm still retaking quizzes I took years ago to see how things have changed, and I'm still taking new quizzes. I just haven't posted the results of either in a couple of weeks.

When I retook "How Evil Are You?" I got "not evil", which is what I got over seven years ago, so I'll just link to the entry where I posted the original result instead of reposting it.

But the next one I retook, I did get a different result.

Old result from over seven years ago:

Anycattlenotingway, here's the obligatory quiz:

How geeky are you?

You are not really Geeky!

You may like a few things that are geeky, but overall you arenâ€™t really much of a geek.

Oh yeah? Well, I know the last digit of pi! It's...uh...green.

Get the conch

(Since the people I just added as friends are probably wondering: Yes, my writing style seven years ago was full of inside jokes, mostly inspired by backwards lyrics. That's why I have a glossary. :) )

Since I'm not into every single thing that's stereotypically geeky, I think my old result makes more sense than either of my new results. Yes, I actually retook it twice - the first time, I got "not a geek", but I took it again since there were a few answers that I wanted to change as soon as I clicked on them, so then I got:

You are a Super Geek!
You are into everything that is geeky – which is hard because there are so many types of geeks. You are very smart and have a great imagination. People who call you a geek are just jealous, right?

I went from "not a geek" to "super geek" just like that? I think that quiz is broken. :)

For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

( So here goes )

( Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

Right now I am way too: embarrassed

Okay, you see, my SAT is tomorrow and I have been practicing essay prompts with pathvain_aelien. I was originally going to use an example from The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck to support my thesis in today's essay, but then when I got to the paragraph I was going to talk about it in, I said "In The Good Earth..." and then talked about The Lord of the Flies by William Golding as if I were absolutely sure Buck and Golding made an agreement to switch their names and the names of their books. Good thing I noticed it before time ran out...

WHAT THE BEAT COPING GNAT WAS I THINKING?!?!

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
