I have not been on line in a while now (damn rollercoaster tycoon), but a lot has happened in the time that I was away. I finally got my new computer, and man is it soo sweet. It is a 1.3 ghz, but I am too lazy to type the rest of the specs. When we first went to Best Buy they did not have it so we had to go back the next day to get it. However the damn lady that worked there kept on trying to talk us into buying a cheaper model, but in the end we decided to go with the better one.

I bought that damn rollercoaster tycoon a couple days ago and I became some sort of addict and cant stop now, and my dad is hooked also. This is also part of the reason I have not been online in a while. But now both the computers are running rollercoaster tycoon, damn that thing.

I am also proud to announce that I am now legal, yes that is right James Krause is now 18.

Today i went out and bought the new Slipknot cd, man am I glad that thing is out. Now all I have to do is wait for System to come out. I have listened to some of Iowa (Slipknots new cd) and it is the same old band except a tad heavier and faster.

My stuff for college is slowy increasing as more and more shopping is being done. I am freaken tired from walking around all day. We bought the printer, but still no comp, my mom and dad are hoping it will go on sale. I bought another metallica hat, it was on sale at spencers, it is a cool hat with a flaming skull. I also have a crap load of other stuff like sheets, detergent, paper, etc.

Yesterday we went out shopping for school stuff like I said. I managed to find a nice pair of Harley Davidson boots, they are sweet. I also found a duster (like a trenchcoat) which should keep me dry and warm during the rain up at Davis. I bought the Ozzfest 2001 cd so look for that to pop up in my cd reviews section, but that was the only thing we got at Best Buy, the comp. is going to have to wait, the one that we want is not on sale.

Today we also went shopping for school stuff. All we bought was shoes for the upcoming school year, I did not think I really needed a new pair, but my dad insisted. We managed to find everyone shoes in one store which was good since the store had a buy 2 pairs get the third one free sale going on. I also found this cool Rob Zombie action figure for 5 bucks, and I could not pass that up.

This was a pretty good weekend. My aunt threw me a going off to college party. This was great on two accounts, I got a going away party, and since it is very close to my birthday, guess what I got at the going away party... if you said birthday presents you are not far off. What I got was birthday money, which is in no way related to presents.

My mom and dad are on vacation for the next two weeks, which is fine, but it cuts into my income. We get to do what we do every year at around this time now, thats right go shopping for school crap. You know what I am talking about, shoes, pants, shirts, paper, color pencils, and so on. But the big thing I am looking forward to is the shopping for my new comp. The purchase should take place any time now, and even better I get to go to Best Buy, the happiest place on earth... or is that Disneyland, anyways I love Best Buy, I could spend hours in there.

Well as we edge closer to me going off to college, I have found myself thinking of it more. I mean it is not like high school at all, my parents have to pay money for this learning. So I am forced to try hard in college and not just kick back like in high school. Before my education just effected me, but now it effects my whole family, and I wont let them down. Their money will be put to good use as I will be forced to work, and (gasp) even study.

I have some thing to say that I thought I would never say, and that is I have actually purchased a couple Limp Bizkit cd's (the two newest ones). I am sorry for this, but one thing I have to admit they do have some catchy songs on them. I could not help it because it has been so long since a good hard rock or metal cd has come out, I had to do it. Anyway, I just felt like that needed to be said.

Other than that this weekend has been pretty much boring. My pile of stuff for the dorm is slowly growing in size, which includes my rice cooker which I did not know could cook other things besides rice. (Man, a rice cooker, how asian is that?) I am getting more excited now, not only for college, but also for my birthday because after all it is a milestone of a birthday. 18, wow that sounds kinda old for some reason. It is like 4:59 AM is a lot earlier than 5:00 AM for some strange reason. Oh well, this birds gotta fly.

This weekend was great, instead of spending 3 and a half days at my aunts house I stayed there for about 4 and a half days. The Fear Factory concert was great (read about it in my misc reviews section) I had a real great time, I even got Dino's autograph. Although that was the only big thing I did the whole time I was down there I still got the chance to spend some time with my cousins, as we are all growing up and growing apart from eachother, oh well I guess that is life. During the weekend I also bought a Slipknot t-shirt, it is sweet. I also bought Rammstein, Mutter and yet another Zao cd. You can look for thier reviews in a few days.
