I was waking up this morning and was thinking how the internet has changed since I first touched it when I was 13. And then I started to think what ScreenNames have I had over the years.
The first time I entered a chat room was over at Preston’s House on IRC went into #irc4kids or something. And I selected the awesome SN of PumpkinMaster. I remember talking to a 13 year old girl from Los Angeles and was amazed that I could talk to an actual girl without having that stupid young embarassment of being in person. Though the conversation failed.
Later that year my parents got an actual decent computer it was a 486 DX4 running at an amazing 125mhz with 16MB of RAM and a 1GB HDD running Windows 95! And I was like maybe I should try this whole chat room thing again. So I went to Geocities chat when they were seperate from Yahoo and had chat rooms. I think I choose like PumpkinMaster again and was like eh. So I did what any young boy wanted to do and went on a hunt for another female. I started talking to this girl who was like 19 and she was from North or South Carolina. And I was just trying to be funny and she started calling me “Craze” which later I found out was an attempt at spelling crazy but she did it wrong. She said she had a sister my age and said I should get ICQ. ICQ was the thing to have back in the day. So I downloaded it and you can still find me on my ICQ #11339355 and that went by Craze for a while.
Later I got bored with the whole chatting thing. I still chat with a few people from back in the day. A girl named Ashley who lives up in Canada. I would have to say she is my longest internet friend. But anyways I started to play DoomII over Kali and someone called me The Phantom so I thought I would change that up a bit and do My First and Middle Initials cause thought it would be cool. So that’s how we got TJThePhantom. I still use it to this day. Drives me crazy when people change their SN’s all the time. I did try and make the switch to a different one when Metal Gear Solid came out for the Playstation 1 to SSnakeMale but most people just thought it was some pervert sending them an IM so I have since moved away from that SN. I still login to it at times just to see if anyone has blocked me. But other then that serves no real purpose.
I have used a few other SN’s since then on message boards. Mainly XMDude, SiriusDude now I just try and get Tristan. If that name is taken I will just use TristanP, TPipo or some variation like that.
But TJThePhantom has been my alias on the chat networks nothing really exciting there. You can find me on Google Talk now under the name Tristan.Pipo@gmail.com and my Skype Name is Tristan.Mac which is on the side of the blog.
The great day of SN’s has taken over the world. I found something that I liked and haven’t really moved from it since then. I guess that just shows I am not a big fan of change or just not creative enough to come up with something new. =p
Me and a large group of people went to Red Robin on Fri Night and I was like everybody should say Hi and I will put it on the internet and this is what we got when I passed the cell phone around the table. Enjoy
Blogs are so cool. I wonder what I did without this outlet at times. I think I need to take more advantage of it. Today is a wonderful day.
Today I got the Sirius Installed. And worked on some Audio Clips for somebody. Today I feel amazing. It’s all thanks to that one special person. You know who you are. I FEEL GREAT!
Well it’s been one week today since the relationship I had with my past girlfriend was over. I thought I would be really down. But I’ve been talking to somebody amazing. She’s helped me work past my bad thoughts. And I feel truly happy. I couldn’t thank her enough for that. 9 More days in Corn Fed Redneck Indiana. Will I miss anything? Not really maybe my coworkers. But they always come and go.
Darin if your reading this. It will happen for you buddy. Have some confidence. Take some pride in yourself and just step out there and enjoy life. It’s to short to spend worrying about everything all the time. Give me a shout out. E-mail is right there on the side.
If you need a laugh check out my sisters Blog. She is rather a bizarre one links are on the side for people that care.
Ohh I also got a Sirius Audiovox Car Kit. I have to install which will be a lot of fun.
Been a while since I updated.. Well Me and Andrea are no longer together. I am moving out of Indiana on the 18th of December. I am lonley and scared right now. I hope to meet somebody new and special to me someday. And that’s about it for now.
I just noticed that audioblogs might be coming so I might try to do that more. So I hope everybody had an awesome Turkey Day. Life has been hell nobody won my auction. =(. Lots of Peace!
Well it’s been a while since I posted a Blog. So what’s new. Well iTunes Is still awesome as ever. I am selling my Delphi SkyFI on eBay. SkyFi Auction. So if you want to help a poor college student out feel free.
I guess my sister posted something really bizarre about me again so if you have a chance go look at that. I really miss my Sirius Radio since I had to mail it out to get replaced. Hopefully those nice people in Arizona have it by now and it’s on it’s way back to me. I miss everybody in Washington Lots of Love.
