Rain

Tue, 19 Oct 2004 09:01:38 GMT

I don't know what the fuck it is with this country this year, or maybe I just don't remember it from last time, but god fucking damnit there has been a lot of rain. I swear if we get one more typhoon like the one that is currently dumping tons of water on us right now I am going to freak-out and kill someone.
Oh yeah my roommate is a fucking slob and I want him dead.... (-"-;)

annoying people

Fri, 08 Oct 2004 07:13:01 GMT

There is someone here who I am literally about 10 seconds away from beating his ass. I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who I hate more than this person at this point in time. He just needs to shut the fuck up.

Today was the best fucking day I've had in quite a long time.

Leaving Tokyo

Fri, 27 Aug 2004 23:51:03 GMT

Well part 1 of this Japan adventure is drawing to a close. I'm just sitting here waiting for the lady to show up and check out out then I'm off to Tokyo Station to catch the shinkansen to Osaka. Ahh Osaka it's been so long. But I never imagined that 2 weeks could pass so fast, seemed like 2 days. Things I'm going to miss about tokyo, HEY in Akihabara, probably the most kick ass arcade I've ever been to. An entire floor devoted to shooters, godlike. Akihabara, well thats just going to get replaced with Den Den, so it's all good. Shibuya/Shinjuku, they are great places to walk around and explore when you're bored even stuff to find at night so it's cool.

Things are expensive

Mon, 16 Aug 2004 01:22:50 GMT

I like forgot how expensive clothes are here. I saw this shit that I liked in Shinjuku the other day. It might have cost $80-90 in the US max from some designer brand. I was all set to buy it too, but then I saw the fucking price 25,000yen($225ish), fuck that...

Lessons learned at Comiket 66

Sun, 15 Aug 2004 08:29:14 GMT

I learned a few lessons from Comiket 66, I'll have to take these into account for the next time I goto a Comiket...
1. Don't get to the event an hour early on a hot day because you will wait outside for 90 minutes in the sun and think you are going to die from heatstroke.

2. Don't get to the event 45 minutes after it starts on a rainy day because you will wait outside in the rain for 30 minutes

3. Don't forget to bring an umbrella on said rainy day.

4. Don't wait in the long ass line next to the Shanghai Alice booth thinking you'll be able to get their games when you're done with the line you're in.

2 60 lb suitcases + 10 flights of stairs = death

packed

Wed, 11 Aug 2004 06:36:16 GMT

Well I'm all packed and ready to head off to japan in 10 hours now. I should be trying to sleep but I'm not because I'm stupid or something like that. Anyways off to bed now...

packing

Mon, 09 Aug 2004 03:35:01 GMT

Well like 61 hours left until my flight, and I really have no desire to pack. I fucking hate packing. Anyone want to do it for me?

5 days

Fri, 06 Aug 2004 22:12:21 GMT

Only 5 days left, and so much shit to do...

Fucking iPod

Sat, 17 Jul 2004 03:35:39 GMT

I swear my iPod is just fucking cursed... the god damn headphone jack is FUBAR now...

The low carb rant

Wed, 30 Jun 2004 02:21:36 GMT

WTF I think this whole lob carb crazy has finally gone too far. Coke C2, Coke with 1/2 the carbs. WTF if you don’t want the fucking calories drink a fucking diet soda. Don’t like the taste of diet soda drink some fucking water it’s better for you anyway. Low carb Special K, WTF its cereal is mostly carbs. And finally the thing that made me snap, low carb milk. I mean seriously WTF? Milk isn’t even a significant source of carbs in the first place and the fuckers are advertising it as it as Adkins approved milk with 1/2 the carbs. These people need to wake the fuck up and eat a fucking dinner roll with their god damn pasta.

Mmmm Red Bull

Tue, 29 Jun 2004 08:54:06 GMT

I'm downing my 4th Red Bull of the night(morning?) and I think I'm almost done with the paper. Woot! Soon I can sleep for 2 hours!

Long ass paper due in 24 hours?

Mon, 28 Jun 2004 21:21:53 GMT

Yep, I have another long ass paper, the last one standing between me and graduation in fact. But how much do I have done with time quickly running out? Looks like about 2 pages, so only 13 more to go and then I get to create a 30 minute presentation out of it. Go me. Procrastination power!

Thu, 24 Jun 2004 23:42:30 GMT

Time just flys by seemed like only last week that I was starting my
summer class and now its almost over.
7 days until I'm done with CCSU
35 days until the Otakon road trip starts
44 days until I'm done with Best Buy for ever hopefully
and finally 48 days until I'm off to Japan

Mon, 21 Jun 2004 00:44:02 GMT

52 days left

work sucks

Sat, 19 Jun 2004 02:32:52 GMT

Wow I fucking hate my job, I'm so glad that I'm going to be done with it soon. All the GM seems to care about it making himself look good to everyone. He tries to make it seem like he's a nice guy, but there is something else going on too, I can feel it.

Me study? ha!

Mon, 14 Jun 2004 01:54:31 GMT

I really need to study more Japanese, I mean I really haven't studied at all for 10 months or so now and I'm only 2 months from going back to Japan. Yeah I can still understand a fair amount, but I really should and need to be able to understand a hell of a lot more.

Fun and profit through procrastination, and the passing of a legacy

Mon, 17 May 2004 20:46:16 GMT

I only ever seem to update this damn thing when I'm trying or maybe rather not trying to write some essay or study for some big exam that is about 5 seconds away from kicking my ass. Well it is now 100% that I will be going back to Japan for school in August, where I'm not sure yet. I'm still holding out some hope for Kansai Gaidai again, but it looks like its going back to JCMU and a whole bunch of rice fields. Joy, well true it is Japan so there is nothing to complain about there, but as with anything it could always be better. Then after I'm done with school maybe, hopefully I'll be able to get a job.
So anyways I got home from work and saw a mailer from DL and open it just for shits and giggles, WTF new owners? Granted I can't really think of anyone I'd rather have as new owners than Scott and Jay, but it still feels strange having a place I literally spent all my free time for a few years coming under new ownership.

Procrastination

Mon, 10 May 2004 05:40:06 GMT

It seems as every semester draws closer and closer to its end my ability to procrastinate always reaches new levels. I mean I should be reading a book that by all means I find interesting, highly recommended. But as usual I just can’t bring myself to finish reading it. Hell I’m even supposed to have a 5 page review of it written for tomorrow and I’m not even half done with the fucking book yet let alone started writing.
Why do I always do this to myself? I mean every time I say to myself “next time I’ll get it done a day or 2 early and then I won’t have to stay up late and rush”. But nothing ever changes. And worst of all I get reinforcement for procrastinating. I put some shitty essay off until the last minute, turn in a pile of what I think is crap and then get an A. I get no incentive to try harder or change my ways for the next time.
Oh well I guess its really too late to try and change my ways now, I mean I’m basically graduating in less than 2 weeks anyway.

God Van Helsing sucked, it's like they put in all the sfx but forgot the good.

change

Sun, 02 May 2004 20:33:27 GMT

I've been thinking about change a lot lately.
I guess I've gone through a lot of changes in the last year or 2, especially the last 8 months give or take. What really made me realize this was a pic of me from I guess about December 2002, and then I looked at a pic that was taken about a month ago. I really couldn't believe that the person in the pic was actually me less than a year and a half ago. I mean I didn't really see myself as having changed that much. But then again, maybe it's just be

Is that really me? Either one... Oh well

Mmmm free Japanese food...

Sat, 01 May 2004 03:03:01 GMT

Just ate like $40 of sushi and didn't have to pay a penny for it...

WTF is this random update?

Wed, 28 Apr 2004 05:03:07 GMT

For some reason lately I’ve been feeling like I should be writing a blog, no real specific reason, just an urge to write. I’ve explored getting a new lj with under a different name, why bother nothing wrong with this one. Something on blogger with the random hope of google handing out new gmail account did it for that reason, but other than that I’ll never use it.
But anyways I suppose I’m just updating this right now as a way of avoiding working on a paper that is due tomorrow afternoon on a book that I haven’t read. Heh, I always seem to do this to myself. Well at least I don’t have to work in the morning.
Also I’m just really distracted by the whole uncertainty of what I’m going to be doing after I finally graduate from CCSU. Yeah I’ve applied to go to Gaidai again, but for that I’ll have to have a bit of luck on my side. I suppose there is always the JCMU application that I’m going to try my best to get in by the end of the week. And I suppose I can always apply to AEON too. But for now I should stfu and go and type something for that fucking paper rather than this year and a half later lj update…
Someone want to buy me these?
