wsup guys..
sorry about the lack of postings, but i found myself with a lack of internet. So now that I finally got hooked up (i was sitting on the edge of my fucking seat the whole time), i can blog again. But before i talk about me, i'll comment ont he last few blogs.

Snacks - good to see you. Ur icon is cool. Look at mine. Mine is gay. Sucks.
Bryant - girls suck. They sucked. They suck. And they will suck. Girls were put on this earth in order to fuck with guys. Girls are huge demented monsters, and they feed on male confidence. Be forwarned. But seroiusly, it's good to hear that things are good with you and natalie. As for the job, that's fucking bank. There's going to be a lot of unemployed bastards in this group (pretty much the rest of us...or if you wait a few years...just me) so we'll need someone to mooch off of . Thanks for being that guy!
Jon - dont' sleep anymore.
Brendan - can't comment. Dont' have any game consoles. Can't play KOH. I'm sure it was fun tho.
Brian - Good to hear you're still alive. It''s almost fall now... HARVEST TIME! =D

Anywayz, on to me. So san diego is aight. It's depressing seeing all these freshmen walking around...makes me feel old and jealous. Class is okay. I'm taking a class on japanese pop culture. I didn't know what to expect but the book for it is a huge ANIME book. With pictures. It looks really cool. Especially since there's a whole spread on hentai. Go figure. I moved into my new house. It's pretty nice. Got my own room and stuff. Sweet. But this one guy i live with...shit i guess you really dont' know someone until you live with them. It's only been a week and this mother fucker is the dirtiest bitch ever. He never puts anything away, never washes his dishes, leaves everything out, and fucking wastes every single resource possible. In addition to that, he's a stingy ass mother fucker...HELLA STINGY...but he's rich as hell. He's a good friend..but AS LONG AS I DONT' HAVE TO LIVE WITH HIM. It's gonna be a fun year. Hehe. His girl and him are pretty much attached at the genital area, so i dont' think he'll be around much. Sucked. It was kinda cool hanging out with him for the little time he was here.

NEXT, so many fucking spiders in this house. Brendan, you would be screaming like a little bitch if you were here. Nothing but spiders spiders spiders. My neighbors are pretty cool tho, we've been kinda loud and they haven't said anything yet.

We have a garden hose holder out front. It says "The Hose Hangout" on it. I thought that was funny. Hopefully you did too.

They removed the shitty chinese place from the middle of campus and replaced it with another shitty chinese place. yay.

okay i'm gonna crash now. i'll complain more later.

SMILE!
What up fellaz, I know my last few blogs have been bleak, but hopefully that will change starting today. I just got an offer from IBM, meaning that unless something crazy happens I'm set for next year with employment. I'm so excited! I have no clue what to expect in my job. My title is going to be Software Engineer, how ironic huh? I called my parents, Natalie, Andy (in class with me), and I would've called more people but I had to go to stupid class. You might think it's odd that Natalie was up there (quiet Brendan!), but we talked recently and I feel pretty comfortable where we're at together. We still care a lot about each other, it's just that time isn't on our side right now. I realize that more since I have hella group work and I'm working a lot at good old T-W. But I have less worries on my plate now. I was afraid I wouldn't get a job and I was afraid Natalie and I would have some weird relationship. But now ..at least today...everything is good and I'm hopeful for the future.

Brendan I hope you get some sleep, listen to classical music, something relaxing, take nyquil...don't try too hard, sometimes it just happens. Derek no ladies love you, get over it hehe. J/k. I was amused by the Gaston pic. Fancy Jonathan gets two icons! I guess that's the power of Admin. I'm almost done w/ Kingdom Hearts and now it would be time for me to move onto So Com. Hopefully Internet gets up and running. Oh and a funny note, I think Andy plugged up two toilets here in SLO, we had a plummer come out today. He's doing well by the way. Alright, I gotta get back to class...latez
Eh...another sleepless night. You start to think of crazy things. Especially when the sun comes up but not all the way up, just enough where this dark blue light peaks through your blinds. That is about the time my mind goes nuts. I've had this ongoing headache for the past two days. Its like an annoying voice that just won't shut the hell up. I can't lay down because it makes the headache worse and I can't shut my eyes because the voices get louder. So I opt to watch old ass Saved By the Bell reruns. The make matters worse they are the old ass ones where Slater, Kelly and Jesse aren't even there yet. Instead its Mikey and this chubby brunette girl...already forgot her name. Mr. Belding is not really balding and Mr. Tuttle is replaced by an old ass teacher by the name of Miss Bliss with an english accent. Why sleep do you ignore me so? I vow that once I get better from my illness I'm getting back on a regular schedule. Looks like I need to get my mom to flick on the light switch and open up the blinds everytime she wakes up...granted I get sleep that night.

Here is the thing. When all you got is creativity your productivity is based on that creativity. Since I'm not being productive ie. drawing, writing scripts, making wallpapers I don't feel creative. So I guess I have to ask myself what comes first...most would say creativity. But we're missing something from this equation. Earth Wind & Fire says it best with a simple, "Devotion". If I'm going to kill those shit eaters in film class I better find myself some fucking devotion quick. I'm starting to think that creativity is based a lot on what you dream...I need sleep.

Anyone seen the Japanese version of Ring yet? I've always wanted to see it but there hasn't been a english subtitled one available yet. Of course the last time I checked it was 1998. It is supposed to be a very scary movie. Hopefully the American one will not change too much stuff. From what I've seen it looks good. I trust Naomi Watts wouldn't have chosen a shitty movie after Mulholland Drive. We'll see...anyone wanna come with? Alright that is it for me. Its funny how my eyelids are getting heavy...unfortunately in about an hour I have to get ready for school. So I'm going to end it on this note...fuck this. Gwaahaahazazazzz zzzzzz zzzzzzzzz....

Okay let us get some things out of the way.
(1) Gaston? You wish.
(2) Jon, maybe YOU really do like Lori.
(3.) Brian, beat his ass. (or join in on the threesome...)

So I managed to sleep for just about 12 hours straight. Woke up for dinner/breakfast at around 7:00 p.m. and went back asleep until 9 o'clock this morning. I cannot shake this sleeping pattern for the life of me. Suggestions? Eh this is killing me.

Today in class I learned that there is NO COMPETITION in the cinema department. Just get some film in my hands and I'm ready to go. Our teacher decided to lecture about stupid shit in film and then about 10 students decided to give examples of what she was talking about. Of course all these examples are in the book. So I just deal with it by saying, "give me a break" under my breath. Ari decides he wants to take it a step further by actually telling someone, "that's in the fucking book". I thought another Ari VS Dumbfuck was going to break out but unfortunately the Dumbfuck backed down. So as of today I decided I'm comfortable in that class to put people down too. I intend to do it every Tuesday 1-4pm. Come on down if you like.

So WB might cancel Smallville. Even though it is getting monster ratings. Why do you ask? Well get this...The creators of Smallville are pissed off at the Superman movie script which is also owned by WB. Here's why. Turns out in the movie script there are some fucked up plot points.
- Clark has his powers from the moment he lands on Earth.
- Lex did not live in Smallville and doesn't meet the Kent's
until much later down the line.
- Lex is a FBI agent (kind of like X-Files)
- And the grand prize for bullshit...Lex is from Krypton.
Of course none of this has been confirmed by any execs at the WB, but the script has been leaked out on the internet. So the Smallville people are pissed because it pretty much goes against anything Smallville represents. But WB has to think which has the higher payoff...a Superman movie would probably make a shit load of money...I mean look at Spiderman.

Alright I guess I'm done. Eecs I don't see any icon(s). I'm starting to think your icon is coming up just like your web comic. Gwaa hahaaa...btw...who is Steve?
Okay I just had one of my weirdest dreams ever. This all takes place while I'm hanging out with Steve at his house. Naturally his house looked nothing like real life and I somehow didn't notice how strange that was... those crafty deceptive dreams.
(1) DISGUSTING/DISTURBING- on MTV or something was this girl who was really really big and fat. So much so that her insides were getting too big for her skin. She was gonna explode and die, and she knew it, and she decided to share this moment with the world, and the TV network decided to show it. So I got to see the insides of a human body bursting out through the skin, and someone dying in the process. The only thing I can think of to compare it to right now is Akira (when Tetsuo gets all big and veiny). I have NO IDEA where my mind came up with this imagery, but I hope it doesn't happen again.
(2) BIZARRE/CONFUSING- Steve and I decided to call someone up and go see a movie. So Steve writes two names down on a big whiteboard and says choose one and we'll go with them. The first name is an unfamiliar girl's name, so I figure it's one of his San Diego friends or something. The second name is Lori H-something. I think for a while... and for some reason I know that it's Brian's ex Lori, even though in real life I have no idea what her last name is. I say kinda slow... "that's not... Brian's ex Lori is it...??" Steve kinda shrugs "yeah." I say no way in hell am I hanging out with her without Brian, that'd just be awkward. So I'm wondering why the hell Steve suggested this in the first place, is he friends with her now, or what... but it gets weirder. Later on Ryan Yoshida comes over to Steve's house, and apparently he's going out with Lori now (kick his ass B3), and she shows up with him. Her head is practically shaved. I couldn't even look at her, I was so confused.
(3) COOL/RELIEF- Okay the last part wasn't nearly so bad. We're still hanging out at Steve's fake house, and somehow we find an object (I can't remember what it was specifically) that gives its possessor teleportation powers. So I had it and we were kinda testing it out. If I held onto it, closed my eyes and focused, I could make objects space-jump from one place to another. I woke up before I managed to teleport myself.

So the moral of the story is: Don't go to Steve's house. =D

So it's about 9 AM... yes, I'm trying to wake up earlier. I got into bed at about 1 AM, and set my dual alarms for 8 AM and 9 AM. Another part of my dream was that I woke up around 1 PM, and was worried that I was no longer capable of waking up early and would have real trouble when I started working (like my mom has predicted numerous times). But I woke up to the sound of my radio alarm clock, and was relieved to see that in real life I managed to get up at this delightful hour. Normally what I do when the alarm goes off is get up, switch it off, and get back in bed. I'm back in bed so quickly that I'm still practically asleep and have no trouble at all sleeping another few hours. But today I just lay there for about half an hour, and let the radio keep going. Over time I became more and more ready to get out of bed. Maybe I've found my solution...

Well I'm gonna go eat some cereal and then finish up my icons. Clean hair for me!

Whew...all I can say is that Kingdom Hearts took a lot out of me. Not because it was difficult but because I could not finish the game without saving all of those cute dalmations. At first I was thinking, "hey they have 99 pups...they won't catch if any of them are missing...right...right?" Well I thought that they would. Seeing Pongo and Perdita faces with I returned all but six of them nearly broke my heart. So I looked and looked and looked. Finally I found them. (Good thing I wrote down all the chests I couldn't get earlier) Then I realized that I haven't finished the book of Winnie the Pooh..."think, think, think..." 2 hours later the 100 Acre Woods were bustling with Christopher Robin's imaginary friends. So after all that I finally got to finish the game. I don't want to talk about anything since some of you might not have finished it and I don't want to spoil it for you. Let's just say that Sephiroth is just as bitchy as he was in Final Fantasy VII. The fact that he is voiced by Lance Bass makes it even more bitchy. So until Kingdom Hearts 2 I guess I'll let this one rest for a bit. Oh and speaking of Kingdom Hearts 2, (no this is not a spoiler) what the hell is up with that trailer? I see that Tetsuya Nomura just can't get away from fucking steam punk shit. I'll admit FF7 was cool but then he did FF8 pretty much the same way...ARGH. Good thing FF10 almost made me cry or else I might not play Kingdom Hearts 2. I guess its a weird Nip fetish...kinda like eating shit...except its on a lower level. Oh well who am I kidding? Not like I'm not going to play KH2. And since I'm venting about this let me just say there is no fucking way Sora could beat Riku in real life. No fucking way. Alright gotta go. Getting tired. Oh and for Jon's sake everyone...keep talking about Kingdom Hearts. He loves it. =) Gwaahaaahaaaa....(and slips into darkness).
