  Been a while...

  What it is yall? project pat in da house!...ok not really, its just me, RMM. Its been a while since made a new blog entry, just been loaded with school, work, and the essential partying. mostly why i havent had time to post much, however ive made time to post every now and then but im not home much during the weekend due to the partying aspect so most of my posting is done when i get home from work while i eat and get ready for class.
  
  works been good i guess, i got my own cubicle and plastered it with random game posters, i got a raise as well so pay is pretty good.
  
  school is goin alright, im supposed to be doing an argumentative essay with my choice for the topic right now, but who cares about that, i plan on making it comical though, with a topic of "why parents should beat their kids" and hope that my teacher wil realise its tounge and cheek and not something serious. (although i do believe parents should administer the "five across the eyes" and the "one-two shut the hell up"). i also dropped my tuesday class, "C++ programming" mostly because im still in a community college and just picking up some gen eds and it was just for some exposure into programming, it just got drowned out by my other classes that i didnt want to fall back in, and learning a programming language takes a lot of effort and time, and i just couldnt dish that out right now. but im gonna take it next semester with my step dad, hopefully he can bring some light to the subject with me.
  
  also, im getting a sub in my car (just one, i dont want to be a fanatic about it and try to set car alarms off) just a 12" pioneer 800w peak power rating. the RMS on it is 150w but im gonna bridge it and feed it around 380w RMS (i listen to a lot of rap and metal, and i baught some after market speakers, and while they definatley added to the audio experience, i feel like i need more. as well as wanting people to know that im arriving by them hearing a thump outside ). my car currently is a 96 toyota tacoma, its missing a front grill cause i owned a car in front of me last summer and broke the radiator. but i plan to upgrade next summer to an 07 impala. since my mom is the head purchasing agent for an insurance company, one of her responsibilities is to deal with the purchasing of corporate cars and they got a fleet of 07 impalas earlier this year and are going to sell them and get new ones next year, so she can get me a good deal on them, around 7k. maybe when i put the sub in ill post a picture of my truck.
  
  on a funny note, i posted a random video of the first bleach opening, and it keeps jumping up in views, i expected one, maybe 2 views on it, but it jumped to around 50. people must be googling the bleach opening and finding it. hell, i may even up the second bleach opening if i get a request .
  
  lastly, i MAY be moving out of my parents basement (embarassing aint it?) and into a friends house, with a few other dudes, but thats still up in the air, but im psyched about it none the less (he will probly read this, and post a comment about it) but it would be awesome to come home to a party every night.
  
  thats about it, a little more info on me and what i have been up to. and for refrence purposes, i feel like such an emo dou che bag for writing a blog posting like this; thinking people actually care that i baught a shake this morning  and liked it....(5 points for people catching that refrence)

  high temps

  alright, this is totally uncool. one of the tubes in my watercooling setup is completly flattened out and wont round out, no matter what i use. the only way itll round out is if i squeeze it with my fingers. so i didnt realize this was happening until my temps sky rocketed from like 40c idle to 54c idle. i then decided to fix it but at the same time got my tracking number for my new motherboard (arrives thursday) and decided i could just tough it out and not play any games until i got that (gonna rearange the whole thing and change out the tubing) so i decided to take off my 1.2ghz overclock and that put it down to 40c idle, but now its flattened out so much its up to 51c idle....
  
  cant wait until i get my new conroe setup
