After long maticulous hours, I finally finished my English portfolio (over the video gaming community) this morning and handed it in. I stayed up til 4 last night working on it and woke up at 8 to put finishing touches on it. I'm extremely pleased w/ it and hope it earns me an A since it's worth 50% of my grade. I even got some screenies of Gen in there. =P This marks the end of the semester for me, as I am in dire need of some time off. I'll let you guys know the outcome when I go to pick it up on Monday. *crosses fingers* I'd like to apologize to anybody and everybody I crabbed at last night. As many of you might already know, this year has been hell for me, and this project wasn't making it any better. Sorry again. =/

So what next ? It look as if I'll have to take some mandatory time off from school. I might end up getting kicked out of the university for having bad grades 2 semesters in a row. Let's just hope that my English grade pulls the rest of it up. *crosses fingers* If I do by chance pass, I can't register for next semester anyways. I can't come up w/ enough money to pay off my bill at the university in time to register for next semester. I guess this is a sign that I need to think harder about what I want to do w/ my life as I've been going down a dead end road my entire college career. It's time to sit down and think about what I really feel like I could do for the rest of my life.

So now here comes the hard part. I'm gonna have all this free time on my hands. What in the heck am I going to do w/ myself ? Any ideas ? Hehe. I'm hoping to possibly travel a little bit. See some place other than Nebraska for a change. Continue to get physched about QuakeCon. Maybe I should get crackin on how to make a website. That could come in handy. Perhaps get to drawing again.

With that, I want to wish everybody a Happy Holidays. Be safe, have fun and all that jazz. Don't do anything I wouldn't ... oh wait, that's bad advice. *giggles*

Sorry dic, but boot camp would kill me. And the military would never accept me anyways, so that's not a viable option. =P

Bah, I say continue working, and with free time comes more time for work.  Work = money.  Money = ability to do stuff and/or go places.  Besides, if it's a pud job, they won't mind you taking off here and there so you can go where you wish.  You know yer welcome when I have time.  And may be a good idea to find some direction, babe.  At least a clue as to where to go next.  Things change all the time.  Ride it out.  And don't forget to take the time to enjoy life.

If you're using a php enabled webserver, this is the thing to do.

Code:
<?php include("http://location.of.your.file/file.xxx"); ?>

If you're using the kind of SSI that goes something like the following, be SURE that your page is saved as a .shtml file.

Code:
(this isn't exact. I haven't used this in ages, and I don't have access to my old files on this machine).

<!-- #include file.xxx -->

Go check out http://www.htmlgoodies.com or http://www.webmonkey.com for more details on the second example. Use http://www.php.net for PHP related inquiries.

YOU STOLE MY THUNDER ! BAD CON ! =P

In other news, today has been a bad day. I finally told my mom that I can't go to school next semester b/c I can't afford to pay the bill. Then it turned into what my GPA is. And you can guess where it went from there ... all downhill.

However, I did get my portfolio back today. I had it for more than half an hour before I finally opened it. I got an A on the portfolio, and a B+ in the class. So I guess at least sth good happened today.
