No more pencils no more books... School's done. Not a moment too soon, either. I always have mixed feelings about leaving Chapel Hill, though. On the one hand, I love being able to come home, spend some time with my family and friends, and relax and get away from schoolwork. On the other hand, it stinks to leave everyone at school, especially Kris, Ali, and Anna, who are graduating. Plus, I just love that place. Anyway, today was pretty crazy. I got two hours sleep, then took my communications final, did decent I think. Then I packed all my stuff in the cars and checked out. I'm finally not getting charged for anything! Plus, I found a volleyball laying in the quad, so I took it, haha. After that, me, Mom, Grammy, and Papa all went to Lenoir for some lunch. Grammy and Papa talk to everyone! It's so funny, I told them it's like one big party every time they come. They were chatting up one of the Lenoir workers who had about three teeth in her head. Good stuff. Then we took off. I drove up until Washington D.C., because my back was killing me. Me and Mom were racing a little bit, with the two cars, and at one point she got pulled over by one of those cops that hide in the bushes. I thought he was gonna get me but he zoomed by me and got Mom instead. It was funny as anything. Eventually, we stopped for dinner at some diner in Maryland, I believe. Grammy got these pork chops and she complained the whole time. After we were done, the waitress brought the check and Grammy said, "I hate to tell you this, but my food was disgusting." I almost died laughing right there, so the rest of the night I kept telling everyone, "I hate to tell you this, but you're disgusting." Then Grammy thought Mom stole ten bucks from her when they were paying the check, so of course I was enjoying myself. We got home at about 11:30, so we made decent time. Then we unloaded all my stuff, and my room is filled to the brim. I barely have room to stand, although it's a little better now. I hooked up my computer on our new wireless internet, which is awesome by the way. I figured I'd play some poker, and after getting some real nasty beats last night, I figured I was due for a turnaround. Wrong. I sat with $80 playing 2-4 Omaha, and on one hand I flopped a set of queens, then got it turned into a boat. I was raising like crazy, and this one guy kept raising back at me. Turns out he got a straight flush on the turn, so he took $40 from me right there. I ended up losing the rest, so I figured I'd try a hold 'em tournament. I played a ten dollar one and started out great. I was second in chips pretty much the whole time, just a little behind the leader, and we were down to 5 people. I had about $2800. I had king jack under the gun, and I limped in, not wanting to get crazy with it. The blinds called and checked, respectively, and the flop was king queen 4. The small blind bet 300, the second man folded, and I raised him 800, having top pair with the jack kicker. I figured he would have raised with a better king, and I seriously doubted he had queen 4. Anything else and I had him beat. He flat called me. The turn was a 2, and he went all in. I thought about it for a while, and was still convinced I had him. I just had about $150 more than him, so he was basically putting me all in, too. I called him. The river was a 6. Turns out he had king 6, and caught the two pair in the river with the only card that would have beaten me. Sometimes it's just not your day. I think pokerroom is trying to get back at me for cashing out $400 last week. So I was dead a couple hands later. That put him up to about $5800, with the chip lead. Grr... I'm so angry right now. I'll probably take a break for a few days to get my head back in order. So now my account is down to $246. Nothing to laugh at, but I was over $400 a couple days ago. Anyway, after all that I decided to hook up all my electronic goodies in my room, so I now have my Playstation 2, Gamecube, and VCR all connected and working. There are wires everywhere, and I think if I sneeze too hard, the room will explode. But I'm going to go now and take my aggression out by using my virtual Kris to beat people up in Fight Night. Night all.
