The aftermath of St. Nick

Today I accomplished very little. Got through half of The Elder Gods, watched Futuresport and Forever Mine. Futuresport was fairly entertaining(Got to love Rasta Wesley Snipes) and Forever Mine was your classic romance epic. I also just realized that Smallville is still on TV. Seven Pounds was fairly good, as was playing through the last temple in Majora's Mask 3 times. All in all a relaxing day.

Well at least yesterday I managed to get some pans and a tool set :P

Lyric of the Day:
"What's that you're saying there
Oh well
Rain rushing window pain
Oh well
Can't see what space i'm in
Oh well
But i'm safe inside me here
Oh well"
-Frou Frou:"Old Piano"

Random Story of The Day:
When watching Seven Pounds, I couldn't help but notice that the pager that they gave Rosario Dawson was the same one that they give out at TGIF. Yohance thought that was messed up.

Note to Future Self: Invisibility will be achieved when we can affect the structure of our bodies. Spaced crystals are the key.

Getting into The Spirit

Christmas Eve was basically me catching up with watching stuff online, like Naruto and Lost. I managed top create a pretty nice gift basket for my grandparents.

Christmas involved a lot of good food, and going to see The Spirit. While not the best movie I've seen, it wasn't the worst. Very stylized and cliche. I had good ideas when I started this, but the fact that it is 3am has worked its magic.

Lyric of the Day:
"Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away"
-Hugh Martin:"Have yourself a merry little Christmas"

Random Story of The Day:
So I was going to go to Midnight Mass on Christmas, but I had a couple hours before I needed to leave. I decided to kill time by starting the latest book from my reading list, the new Edding's series. When I paused from reading I realized it was 12:30. For the second time in a row I eneded up watching mass on TV :P

Note to Future Self: Figure out what you want to do.

Milk and Cookies

More like Cookies and Milk, but whatever. I realized earlier this week that I can make ice cream sandwiches myself, an ability that essentially was the only thing I felt I had after my fluids test. Apparently everyone was rocked by it, and my circuits test was do-able so I'm good.

Bowling was a lot of fun, though the entire night made me think of Kal Penn in the Namesake. The scene with him and the girl who went to France and came back super-hot?

I also saw Milk today, which was really interesting. As someone raised Roman Catholic, and who shifter from leaning to the right towards the left it really made me think about religion's place in our society. While religion shapes our morals and values, the degree to which it can be used to change society is debatable. The fact that discrimination is a vital part of society, yet causes injustice sucks.

Lyric of the Day:
"Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams
That you've dreamed of
Once in a lullaby"
-Leona Lewis:"Somewhere over the Rainbow"

Random Story of The Day:
As we're playing Rock Band, we manage to score a 750,000 points. In joy, CC raises him drumsticks and yells "750,000 points!". His momentum from raising the sticks causes him to falls backwards into a lamp and table. No college kids were hurt in the making of this scene.

CC also yells out "1! 2! 3! 4!" before he has a part on drums. Even in the middle of songs...

Note to Future Self: Wedding tattoos instead of rings? Think about it.

Finals Crunch


Tried to write an entry after Fluids wrecked me. It failed,

Lyric of the Day:
"I'm the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished with
The spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid
Allergic to the counterfeit, impartial to the politics
Articulate but still would grab a nigga by the collar quick."
-T.I. feat. Rihanna:"Live your Life"

Random Story of The Day:
Me: I kind of want to see 7 pounds.
Friend's GF: Yeah, Will Smith is so hot!
Me: He is like fifty or something.
Friend: Yeah, we were going to see it, you could tag along.
Friend's GF: Threesome!
Friend: Ummm....that not the word I would use...

Formal to Forms


How can a teacher get away with changing the due date of an assignment 9pm the night before they want it due? I don't even know.

Well, I'm off to work on another lab report.

BTW, Gems Formal was phenomenal. Sometimes you gotta take time and just enjoy yourself.It was good seeing Michelle, bumping into my section(WAVES!), and meeting up people I hadn't seen in a while(campers!). Feeling empowered to voice how you feel is intoxicating, or maybe a result of it.

Lyric of the Day:
"Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me
Get things right"
-Foo Fighter:"Learn to Fly"


Random Story of The Day:
Bruck to class: "And what do we use lubrication for?"

Prop 8, The musical

Neil Patrick Harris is the man.

Lyric of the Day:
"So far away we wait for the day,
For the lives all so wasted and gone;
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days-
Through the fire and the flames we carry on!"
-DragonForce:"Through the Fire and the Flames"

Random Story of The Day:
So apparently I have not been missing my lab's group meetings, my PI just hasn't had one for two months. Our first one is today, so I guess I better go make something to show...
