I watched Die Hard 2 tonight for the first time ever (yes, the first time ever). The first two movies were essentially the same - John McClane uses his cop mastermind to not only defeat a terrorist organization affecting some sort of institution, but in doing so he also saves his wife. While I have to say that its plot is not as good as the first, ( Read more... )

This is by no means a comeback entry (who was waiting, anyway?), but I figure I should update to at the very least have at least one entry in this journal for 5 straight years. Holy shit tits, am I old. I started this journal when I was 16, and now I'm 20. If I use this journal for 10 more minutes, I'd probably wander into the realm of creepy ( Read more... )

I was sitting at work the other day, performing tedious processes I have been doing for over a month, when an urge overcame me. An inexplicable urge fueled by nostalgia and a few good memories ( Read more... )

I just discovered 2 crazy, useless yet compelling stories.

"Girls Just Want To Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper was released in 1983. The sounds of the song, in my head, are the basic prototype of 80s pop music with melodic synthesizers and noticeable, electronic drums. Just listening to the song, you'd think that Cyndi was a a fresh pop diva, no older ( Read more... )

I had a damn good calzone today. Hamburger, cheddar cheese, ranch and green peppers. Mmmmm.

No one has truly lived until you have experienced a DP Dough calzone. It's too bad I'm going to be leaving here next week, which means 4 months with no calzones.

I really think I'm in love.

I can't even recall the last time that I talked about my life in here. It had to be sometime in the middle of junior year of high school ( Read more... )

It would absolutely terrifying to listen to "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails during sex.

I know that the Devil will be ice-skating in Hell when I say this, but I am honestly getting really sick of SportsCenter. Yes, SportsCenter. The highlight and sports analysis show. The show that I mindlessly turn on at any given time I am near a TV (as many of you know). The show I used to watch every morning when waking up to go to school early in ( Read more... )

When I went to get interviewed for this internship in Chicago yesterday, I truly realized how many white-collar bourgeois workers are time-pinchers. When the Metra was about 5 minutes away from Union Station, people were already standing in the aisles waiting to get off. After they did, people were either in a brisk sprint or a mad dash to get to ( Read more... )

I spent a good portion of last night perusing through old Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) games. I don't have the system (rather, I can't find it), but I downloaded some ROMs to play on the computer.

For one, I realized how spoiled we have become when it comes to video games and technology in general. I have distinct memories having a great time ( Read more... )
