So ya. Aaron from the job, my fellow Star Wars fanatic, hooked me up with a copy of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Bastard. For 18 hours and 34 minutes, it consumed my soul. It is an RPG that moves sorta slow, but baits you on little by little, inch by inch, until you're addicted and you "just gotta know what happens next with ______So ( Read more... )

DONEThat's correct. I finished my cube program. I average 44 moves, which is significantly under par for the aim of ~50 moves I was pursuing. Does this mean I'm "finished" as in I'm not gonna touch it again? Certainly not. There is definitely room for improvements ( Read more... )

No, I have not updated in a while. I haven't had a hell of a lot to report on. The idea is that the longer I wait to check in on my LJ, somehow the cosmic forces will align the planets to give me something good to report. Far-fetched, and yet I was letting it reside in the pit of my stomach just the same. All is quiet now. Perhaps I should put ( Read more... )

Once you say to yourself "Dear god I don't want December to come", this simple statement ensures that November is going to FLY past you. We are now at the half-way marker of November. Goody. Nothing has changed except for the number of places I've applied to. That number keeps rising, at least. I applied for a part-time internship here in town ( Read more... )

I read that on some plaque my dad has on his wall of "I Love Myself" dedications. It had something to do with being sober, I think. The wording just popped into my head today as I sat and thought about the universe and my place in it. You know: if I have one, where it is, if I'll ever get there, blah blah blah. Will I be happy? Will I see it ( Read more... )

Oh dear, oh me, oh my. It wasn't even 9am yet and somebody had to go and push my angry buttons. At 8am this morning, I was supposed to transition from Jennings to Yulee... ...contingent on my replacement dragging his LAZY ass out of bed and walking the 100 yards to the desk from his fucking dorm room. I'm referring to Jaustin, an RA that I ( Read more... )

I just watched The United States of Leland. It was very touching. Wish I could say that I don't identify with Leland's character and with what happens in the movie. Leland and I are very similar in a lot of ways, though I'm far less intense about much of it than he is. Though I admit that I do peak into my "guessing box" to see the fate of some ( Read more... )

Once again, I'm awake at the ass-crack of dawn. But I have absolutely NO valid reason for it! I went to bed at 11pm!!! I forced myself to stay up. I went to see The Grudge after hanging out with Maria for a while editing the research paper she's doing for religion class. It was pop-pop scary. Or perhaps it was all the caffeine in my system ( Read more... )

Yet again, I don't know how to classify my sleep rotation at the moment. Woke up shortly after 3:00am ( Read more... )

Ah. That's "ah" as in a sigh of relief, not "ah" as in "AH!" Yesterday evening, I got home from working all weekend long and fell to sleep around 6:30pm. I slept very hard and woke up around 2:30am, at which time I got my ass up and went to Taco Bell as it was the only place still open. On that subject, I'm losing faith in fast food more and ( Read more... )
