Bleh, it's past my bedtime.

*Feels pathetic for having a bedtime*

Oh, and about the "I'm sane. On Wednesdays!" Thing. That's a quote from me, I say it all the time. ^^

_____________________________________

I can't believe this. Faulty code. Again, the wrong code. Like I said before, this computer just hates me. Hates me, I tell you!

Okay, now I sound crazy...

But I'm not crazy, my computer is crazy, it won't accept my code. My code is right, my computer's the one that's wrong.

Alright, so maybe I am crazy... But that's okay. Nothing wrong with being crazy. That's what Hikaru says. But then again, she also says that "I'm sane. On Wednesdays!"

Right, so being crazy probably isn't okay. Well then...

I frown at the laptop's flat screen and imagine myself hitting it with various objects. Not that I ever would in real life! No matter how stupid and annoying this computer is, it and it's mocking, stupid, code rules and restrictions.

I don't think I can use the computer for a while. If I do, I'll get frustrated to the point of breaking it, and this took three weeks allowance to buy! (Actually, the lady selling it was a friend and there was a sale, so getting it was pure luck...)

Still, the idea of throwing it across the room at the wall is very tempting.

Well, now I have a reason not to. Max is standing infront of the wall I want to throw it at. Okay, well, that's somewhat good.

"Thanks." I say, just for the fun of being what seems like random to everyone else. It wasn't random, I had reason. He just saved my laptop. Although it does deserve to die...

Max looks at me, bewildered, and raises an eyebrow.

"For what?" He asks, as expected.

I decide to be mysterious and just look back at my laptop. I see from the corner of my eyes; Max takes a slight step backwards before leaving the room as quick as possible.

Heh, that was amusing.

Max is, Y'know, always happy. Or at least, it seems like it. I'm not saying that it's fake and he's actually really angsty and such inside, he's just not as happy as he acts. Basically, he acts 100% happy, but he's actually 90% happy.

I don't think that anyone could not be sad - if not just a little - in his situation. His parents are divorced, his mom lives really far away, when he does see her she barely talks to him... I've noticed that when they do talk it's mostly on his mom's part "I'm proud of you, I love you." And that's it. Nothing else.

I've noticed that he kind of closes off himself from her as well, like he's afraid that if he reveals too much about himself than she won't like him anymore.

It makes me kind of angry with her. I mean, I know she's a great person and all, and she really does love him, but still! She's his mom! She should talk to him a little more than that.

And when we were against her team... I overheard Max telling Takao that his mom had told him to quit to avoid embarrassment from losing. She doesn't even know him well enough to know that he wouldn't do that!

Max can't be lonely, he has all of us and he knows that we're his friends, his dad is really nice and loves him to pieces. He's not lonely persay... But nothing can replace a mother.

I don't like seeing people with the same situation as me. Having people who love you, but barely know who you are. My parents are like that, but I love them too. It's not like I'm mad at them, but still it's... Frustrating I suppose.

I'm glad that Max at least has a dad who knows who he is really well.

Max is really reliable. Even if you don't ask, he'll still figure out what you'd like him to do and do it. Although, on the occasion, he just doesn't get it. And sometimes he 'doesn't get it' just for fun.

He's reliable, but one thing is that he trusts others to much, just assumes that they're all as reliable as him. He shows people how he does certain tricks, even if it'll change the outcome of an important match in their favor, and he'll let people borrow his stuff -- even Takao, of whom no one trusts with their stuff.

I'm getting kinda bored.

I think I can forgive my computer now.

Back to rewriting the code.

Oh joy.
