Welp, I have somehow managed to survive everything for 18 whole years. Go me!!

I haven't gotten my birthday presents yet, but I did go gambling for a little while ([livejournal.com profile] awehla, I mentioned in a comment that it'd be tomorrow, but the plans ended up changing). I won $63!!! And we had a party at the autism intervention group I go to!

And, of course, the usual Museum of Accomplishments post:

<s>Cake</s> cut for length )

Also, in addition to today being my birthday, this is my 700th post in this journal!! I was going to celebrate with a list of the subject lines from all 700 entries in my journal (and, for once, even my community entries!), but I left my laptop unplugged while I was typing it, and since my laptop doesn't have a low battery alarm (despite claiming that it does), I lost a lot of it and decided to give up. Maybe for my 800th or 1000th entry?

Stay awake for 264 hours to repost this entry

Just great

Only a month until school starts, and I still haven't finished those summer reading projects :(

The post goes ever on and on down from the journal where it began
matt1993: (hypercube)
In four or five days I leave for the NASA summer camp. Can't wait?

Blastoff

Now I'm done with all of my homework for this weekend. Yay! That didn't take long. Longer than [livejournal.com profile] pathvain_aelien's estimate of an hour and 45 minutes, but still not long.

Also, yet another profile name change. (When you have a generic username like mine, you feel obligated to at least change your profile name a lot.) Y'see, I wrote my informal essay over the frustration I had been having with my HAS project, and instead of "I couldn't get the converter to convert dates consistently", I put "I couldn't get the converter to consist dates consistently". So my new profile name is "I can't consist consistently." :)

Consist to your journal consistently
matt1993: (hypercube)
I'm finally done with the HAS final project! Yay! See you in the summer, devastatingly hard projects! >:)

Now, to finish my other homework in 6 hours and 9 minutes somehow...

Spread the good news
matt1993: (homsar's skull)
So last Thursday (I think), being a current member of the National Honor Society at my school, I went to the induction ceremony for the new members. Something really funny happened there; the current president of my school's NHS lit the candle that represented the "eternal" light of knowledge, but two candles later, it went out, so I said, "The apocalypse is coming!!"

I don't think I'll get to check my friends page for a while since I'm having to work on the final project for HAS. :(

Blow out the candle
matt1993: (infinite-paragraph essay)
I finally submitted my last HAS assignment aside from the final project! Yay!!

Now to get on with my other homework this weekend...

Colonize Mars

So I just now finished my Tuesdays with Morrie project. Yay!! *can have my the last four days of summer in peace*

And I've recently noticed something else that annoys me: the fact that my mom uses whatever is closest to write names, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, passwords, and calculations on instead of taking the time to find something blank rather than something that might be important later on. My reasoning: For my Tuesdays with Morrie project, there is a sheet of paper that we have to fill out, and on the back we have to write why we chose the quote we chose. Mom, being... well... Mom, had written on the back of said sheet of paper, and so I had to type up the front side in WordPad instead, print it out, and write on the back of it. I don't know if points will be counted off for it yet.

Now it's Buffy time. And then Mario Party 4 time. (yes, I've recently been going through older games that aren't Super Mario World)

I finished reading Tuesdays with Morrie for the project I have to do over the summer.

The good news? I liked the book. I agreed with pretty much everything Morrie said.

The bad news? Starting tomorrow, I have to start working on the project; in case you haven't read the other post about my projects, I have to write an essay (or maybe - hopefully - just a paragraph, I forget) about the most important word, phrase, or sentence from the story.

*sigh*

Tuesdays with reposts
matt1993: (updated prtsc land me)
I haven't posted about this before, but towards the end of school I was assigned two reading projects to do over the summer. One is about Tuesdays with Morrie, and we have to write about the most important word, phrase, or sentence, and for the other one we get to choose from seven books (I chose The Crucible) and we have to make a posterboard.

So I was working on the latter today, and I was looking for images of some of the main characters and some other things pertaining to the book on Google Images. One thing I searched for is "yellow bird". Look what I got:

Big Bird showing up in a Google search for "yellow bird"

Can you show me how to get, how to get to the witch trials? :P

I admit it's not as funny as this, but...

The funniest three things I ever heard today:

So, I have a project in reading class where I have to pick four quotes in Night that have to do with one of the symbols in the book and explain each quote. I picked fire as the symbol, and had asked [livejournal.com profile] pathvain_aelien if she could help me with it, and she agreed, but then she said she doesn't remember any instances of fire in Night. Then this happened:

ME: (something about the part where Mrs. Schächter says, "Fire! I see a fire! I see a fire!")
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Wait, what?
ME: You know, that woman on the bus who--
PATHVAIN_AELIEN: Did you just call her Trogdor?

Later on, when pathvain_aelien was getting something:

PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Come on, Trogdor!

Even later, when we were talking about the project again:

PATHVAIN_AELIEN'S BOYFRIEND: Is Trogdor a symbol?

Sure, the Trogdor comes in the night, but not the one by Elie Wiesel.

Reposted entry! I see a reposted entry! I see a reposted entry!

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
