I was driving home from fighter practice last night, and I suddenly got the bright idea of going back to school with a history major. I like history. I like reading books about history and writing papers (in general). I could easily make history my profession. Now I just have to figure out what the hell I would do with a history degree besides ( Read more... )

Last night was my belated 34th birthday party, which was effectively my 34th 1/2 birthday party on account of it being about six months after the fact. A great group of us had dinner at Alcatraz Brewing Company (at the Block in Orange), after which several people went home and the rest of us hung around in the Hot Topic until movie time. We saw ( Read more... )

Went to see the newest Harry Potter movie with 40+ Harry Potter geeks last night. I am not a HP geek. I haven't even read more than the first book.

On Thursday I became High Druin, even though Court itself sucked ass ( Read more... )

Well, it took all week, but I finally got ahold of Larry (the acting director of the Game Art and Design program). I saw him in his office yesterday, and he changed my major from Graphic Design to Game Art and Design. I was pleasantly surprised; I had been told by the previous director that my portfolio would need to be reviewed first. Either ( Read more... )

Well, the extended service on my car is finally done. I took it in on Friday and picked it up on Saturday, and then I took it back in on Tuesday and picked it up yesterday afternoon. At least they washed it this time. All told, I think I spent over $1,000 on it, everything from tires to new shocks to wheel alignments to whatever they normally do ( Read more... )
