So, after my second all-nighter in 3 nights, my mind is beyond fucked up. Large flat surfaces tend to move in waves when I look at them, and coherent sentence structure has become a thing of the past. Which is bad considering the reason I stayed up in the first place was to study for an interview I have with my Japanese teacher in an hour and a ( Read more... )

Were cartoons really this twisted when we were kids?

I'm watching "Firewalk With Me" right now at the behest of my roommate, and I must say that it's the most ridiculous movie I have ever seen. The entire movie feels wrong, but most of the time it's just small things that feel out of place. Then the movie degenerates into moments of sheer creepy retardedness. I feel like I'm going to need to ( Read more... )

Starting Monday, I will be working two part time jobs, one which I love, and one which I'm hesitant about. I'm still at the framing place, and as of Tuesday or so I was hired as a dishwasher at Pia's, which is a small italian restaurant a couple of blocks from Hendrix.

The beach was great and I'm sad to see it go, but at the same time it'll be good to get back to the normalcy and routine of everyday life again. I arrive early Monday morning and don't work until Saturday, so I've got all week to try and find a place to live. Hopefully I can see some more people before they scatter to the ends of the earth again ( Read more... )

For those I don't, keep it as real as I would. Any more and things might get too real for ( Read more... )

Possibly the worst thing I've ever seen.

So during the summer I usually go to the movies a lot to make up for how little I go during the school year. However, this summer I've been lagging behind, so I decided to make up for it all in one day. After eating some lunch to fortify myself, I bought a ticket for the 1:30 showing of Lady in the Water. It was pretty good overall, though I ( Read more... )

For anyone who missed Zidane's spectacular headbutt during the world cup finals, here it is from a number of different perspectives I've had enough going on lately to keep me fairly busy. For the first time in months I've had enough hours at work to keep me pleasantly occupied, due in part to the fact that my co-employee just got fired. This is ( Read more... )

Italy totally rocked Germany in overtime. Two goals in the last 3 minutes for the game. Truly an excellent match.
