AND THE LACK THEREOF*

about

This is the personal blog of Tim. Here, Tim writes on anything he has enough inspiration to finish a post on. That usually ends up being matters of science, pop culture, technology, religion, and philosophy.

This blog is around nine years old, which is over a third of Tim's current age. Back in 2003, it was called "Of Tim: Tim's life - or lack thereof", and it was as bad as you might expect the blog of a freshman in high school to be. Tim hopes that his writing is a little better, these days.

Tim welcomes any input that you, the dear reader, might have. Comments are very much appreciated, especially if you have a dissenting opinion. If you'd like to learn more about Tim, you might want to see his facebook or google+.

Also: Tim is a very avid consumer of various sorts of music. You may be interested in his playlists!

I had a great time at Sam's party, it was definately something I'll remember for years to come. I got to meet Kat who wasn't really all that bad as she was made out to be. There were a lot of tears, and it was pretty hard to maintain a stoic face. Besides the lack of food (I had a breadstick for dinner) it was really, really nice to be there with my friends outside of school. It really made me remember that I have better things to do than sit at my computer all day. At the moment, I'm really mellow. I finished up my going away present for Sam and decked it out with ribbons and a bow. It looks presentable, at least. The only other true point of interest I have is that I got the best shirt ever from Jared. We've all seen the classic "Ithaca is Gorges" t-shirt...but now, we have presented to the world, the ever truthful "Ithaca is Froehlich". I'll post a picture of it when it's not 1:45 AM and when my parents aren't home (we aren't getting along this week. I have a susupicion that it's not going to get any better for a very long time) to guard the camera.

This next part is a bit of a rant...

As for the rest of my week, I went through a few ... heated debated with my dad about whether I have to go to New York City with him. You see, my parents are going to some conference, which is held on Sunday or Saturday night or something. My dad wants me to come along, but I really have no reason to go. It's a five hour drive both ways, and I don't have anything to entertain me for that long. Besides that, I really have no desire to spend a very long Saturday just with my dad. Now, if there were a few tech museums that were actually well laid out and presented in an interesting and logical manner, that would be a different manner, but all my dad came up with was a subsection of the Museum of Natural History - a planitarium. That's cool, but not cool enough to go for three days. I'll go another time, maybe. In case you hadn't noticed I'm in a "I hate my parents mood." This is partially because of a lecture my dad presented to me about three hours ago concerning those of the female persuasion. Apparantly he made a few observations at the party (he was there, I don't know why, but he never left after taking me there) that a few of my friends (female) were "unhappy and wanting attention". Besides this being a completely baseless obervation, it's pretty insulting to me as he insults my friends. He also took it upon himself to recall his troubles as a youngster with girls and assumed I might need to hear the outdated perspective of a guy who led (and still leads) a very different life to that of my own. Whether it's his duty or not as a parent to bestow his wisdom and experience on me, I would actually prefer to learn on my own, though his little lecture didn't actually come across anyways, his points didn't seem to link together in any logical manner.

I'm done.
