I just saw the funniest, cheesiest movie EVER. Anyone ever hear of Dark Star? It's a really, really low-budget sci-fi movie made in the 70s. And when I say low-budget, I mean lighted, upside-down ice cube trays for button panels, baking soda in a vacuum on reverse for gas expulsion, and air conditioner filters and duct tape for space suits.

So here's the master plan for the next few days!

Today: Clean my room and pack, pack, pack for spring break
Saturday: Go to Uwajimaya with anime club in Dru's car- do not come back with rest of club, staying with Dru in Seattle.
Sunday: Attend Sakura Con staff meeting with Dru and hopefully Chris, pay the $15 registration fee and turn in forms.

We were looking around for a free PC for the club a couple days ago, and ran across some old computers that KAOS had in the basement. They weren't in use anymore, so we got our pick. We chose a decent one for basic work, and the others didn't work. However, there was one that rather intrigued me. It was a plain white case with nothing but a ( Read more... )

Back from the con, still a little sleep-deprived, but mostly doing well. Here's a quick summary of good and bad things that happened ( Read more... )

Tomorrow morning is Chibi Chibi Con and the fun doesn't stop for 36 hours! I'll be offline the whole time, and probably for most, if not all of Monday as well. On Tuesday, however, I'm planning to put together a huge synopsis of what we did for this con and how it went...I'll probably make a little site out of it. In any case, you'll all have to ( Read more... )

I'd say that my day couldn't really get any worse, but I know it really could. However, suffice to say, today really, really sucked. Since I pretty much slept yesterday away, I had to get back to doing stuff for the con today, which meant waking up at 10 and making signs and such up at the club office ( Read more... )

Zee is very sick right now and therefore very annoyed. I have a convention to plan, for goodness' sake! We're in the home stretch, it starts this Saturday, and here I am feeling like my throat is swollen to the size of a wombat and someone's been beating me with a baseball bat. ~_~ I was feeling just fine last night too, but come seven this ( Read more... )

I wanted to get so much done today...an essay for Japanese class, something else that was important...and something else...and then I made the mistake of opening my window. It's sunny out. And warm, for Olympia. The thought fluttered across my mind that it would be great to go rollerblading, and now I can't think of any of what I wanted to get ( Read more... )

Dear Bon Appetit (my school's food service provider),

I appreciate the fact that as an environmentally conscious food provider, you still offer trout dinners in these recent times of high-probability mercury poisoning *cough*. However, next time, please remember to actually cut the fins off of the fillets before serving them, as they are inedible ( Read more... )

You never know exactly how out of shape you are until you do something stupid, like taking up kickboxing. By the end of this quarter, I'll either be really, really in shape, or really, really dead. Yes, you have my permission to place bets, and yes, my ass is going to be really, really sore tomorrow...not to mention my abs, my legs, my arms, and ( Read more... )
