dmxratedWeek 2 of Chronicles of 7th Grade. Nothing too significant, but the first entry does foreshadow something that I would later become obsessed with.
September 6, 1998 (Sunday)
This morning, Mom took me to Walmart. When I went to Electronics, I played Banjo-Kazooie. I later told Brian I really like that game for the same reason I like other games such as Super Mario World.
(That reason, was that the items in the game are small and all the same size, and several of them are shaped the same as others.)
September 7, 1998 (Monday, Labor Day)
Today, we had no school. James came over while I was playing Arcade Games. Later, Grandma Ella came over for dinner. While we were eating, I asked Mom a few things about Marissa from last year.
“I used to change the subject and ask Marissa about her trake. What if she refuses to come on my snowboarding trip?” I asked.
“She might’ve just felt irritated,” Mom told me.
“Once, the kettle was boiling, and Brian blocked me, and I pushed him onto the wall. He was like ‘I’m not going on your snowboarding trip.’”
“Why do you think that is?”
“Because I did something to irritate him?”
“Because you got him mad.”
“Once at camp, I gave Corin the finger, and Brian told me he won’t go on my snowboarding trip.”
“You make yourself look like a jerk.”
“Once, I was playing ‘Kirby Super Star,’ and he wanted to play, and he told me he won’t go on my snowboarding trip if I don’t let him play.”
“He’s trying to manipulate you. That’s what boys do.”
While we were in bed, I was reading a MAD Magazine, and me and Brian were laughing about “South Park.” Brian told me something about the characters in South Park going snowboarding. Brian’s mentioned something about the characters going snowboarding, and just before they reach the finish line, they slam into trees.
September 8, 1998 (Tuesday)
After group, Mom took me to the library, and I got a booklet called How to Win at Super Mario Games.
Around bedtime, Brian told me that Mom wanted me. I went into her room and she didn’t want anything. I came back into my room and threw a screwdriver into his ass. He started crying. A few minutes later, he said “I’m not going on your snowboarding trip. And I’m not changing my mind.” I went into Mom’s room and asked Dad if it was too late now. Mom then turned on a show about an autistic woman who paints.
September 9, 1998 (Wednesday)
After school, I told Brian he could stab me back, but he said “Forget it.”
Both, me and Marie, forgot one of our homework assignments. Dad had to drive us to the schools. He was a bit pissed. Marie told him that she only had to retrieve a worksheet, but Dad told her that he still has to drive.
Marie was gonna do her homework in the truck after she got it, but Dad told her not to because she has nothing to lean on.
September 10, 1998 (Thursday)
While I was doing my homework, I watched Brian and James play Diddy Kong Racing. Then we ran up and down Masem Court. While we were on Masem Court, I saw Dail and his friends on Newbill’s driveway.
Ten minutes before 8:00, I told Dad that I was gonna watch NickelOZone “if that’s not too much trouble for you.” He said no. I had four subjects to do in one hour. After I finished, he questioned me about something we wrote in Reading. At first, he asked me if I wrote it, but it was obvious to him that it was Ms. Bandows’ writing. After he lectured me, I left the room with the words “This is no laughing matter” running through my head.
September 11, 1998 (Friday)
Tonight, Brian got Drumstick and got up to WizPig on Diddy Kong Racing.
On KABLAM! tonight, on ‘Sniz and Fondue,’ Fondue was obsessed with Solitare on the computer. Sniz asked him if he wanted to go fishing, and he says “OK. After I finish this game.” Later, two burglars rob him, and he tells them “I’ll call the police on you! That is, after I finish this game.”
On ‘Action League Now,’ a mummy woke up from its tomb, and the Action League was unable to stop him. Meanwhile, the Mayor was selling one of his gems, and he says “Come and get this precious jewel for $.89. I’ll make it $.79.” And then the mummy was heading toward him and he says “$.69 for you.” The mummy then blows him up with a laser beam.
September 12, 1998 (Saturday)
This morning, Dad asked me and Brian to help him move a stump with a shovel and a pick. While we were working, I noticed that you could use the hose to make a waterfall from the crack. Brian was impressed at first, and then later told me that we’re supposed to be moving the stump, not making a waterfall.
Later, I came in the house all wet, and I saw Brian and Marie watching some fighting movie with a black man and a white man fighting another black man with a knife. They knocked him off the balcony and are like “Yeah!!!” Mom told me to come and change my clothes, and I told her what I was watching, and she asked me, “Are you in the living room all wet?”
Later, we all went to a demolition derby. On our way there, Brian saw this giant, wooden Indian statue, and he’s like “That Indian has a huuuuuge buttcrack.” I mimicked him, changing “buttcrack” to “asscrack.”
Anyway, Matthew finally returned my calls after a few days of trying to contact him. I told him about what's going on with this blog since just several days ago, among other stuff. Even though I'm not really a fan of online games, he did tell me about these two games called Team Fortress and Gang Garrison, which I might check out one of these days.
Also, Mom is on vacation for a week, but when she goes back to work, she promised to ask someone if it's possible to download stuff at the hospital's computer lab. Recently, I've used a free trial of TubeHunter Ultra to download the first 30 seconds of something from YouTube, it worked, but when I tried to buy a license key so I could download the whole video, something blocks me from paying for it through PayPal. However, after contacting tech support, I was told that I could actually obtain it for free at the following link:
