More Randomness

So now I'm having to RE-rate ALL of my songs on iTunes.... I'm talkin' years of work all down the drain cause I decided to re-install OS X. ANYWAY.....

I'm THIS close to getting the job at Apple... I'm just having to fill out all these background check forms, etc. Man I really hope I get that. Discounts... maybe even a free iPod, the nectar of the Gods.

Anyway, been messing with Photoshop a lot more lately, check out my latest: Robot Forest
Besides that, just lookin' forward to Tuesday... if you know me, then you know why!

Recent Things

So here is a list of the recent things I've come to really like in the past week or so:

[1] DataRock
[2] The new Interpol album
[3] Aussies
[4] Home-made breakfast burritos (incl. Monterey Jack, 2 scrambled eggs, a little mexican salsa)
[5] Drinking during the day

My Birth Day

So OK. The day started out slow, and actually quite nice. I got some "happy birthday" wishes from a lot of friends and family and it was great... but THEN I got into this long discussion/argument with my mom and it kinda killed my mood a bit... I mean, it didn't really ruin anything, and it was a discussion that we've had several times. But having it come up again on this day, and taking it to new levels was less than perfect...

Today I'm gonna drink, play risk with my roommates, and then go see Data Rock later on. And I think they might be planning something for me because I just caught them being all secretive.

I just don't feel like it's my birthday... the day is extremely average, and that kinda sucks. It's all good though because we're supposed to be throwing a housewarming party soon, so we'll make that 50% housewarming and 50% bday celebration.

Here's to 24.

Old friends, Television, and moving.

So I got back in touch with a couple of friends from Argentina that I haven't spoken to in.... well... 10 YEARS!!! These guys were my best friends when I was little, but once I moved to LA I lost contact with most (if not all) of them. I'm going back to Argentina this winter so it's cool, and it's actually funny how fast news travels, cause a lot of these friends that I haven't even talked to in forever already know that I'm coming back cause they heard the news through the grape vine...

------

Today I started my internship at KTVU, the FOX affiliate... I'm not so stoked about the fact that it's Fox, but I get to do some cool stuff. Today I made some copies of TV shows that are premiering this fall, and I made a copy for myself :)
I'll also get to shadow the editors for the news, and work with Avid some times, so I'm really excited about getting my hands dirty with some professional equipment.

------

The moving is pretty much done. All our stuff is here at the new place, but now we have to actually arrange everything. The thing that sucks is that there's construction going on for some leaks in the wall, so for the next week we have to keep our things 6 feet from the wall so that the workers can do their thing..... that SUCKS cause it means we can't set up for a while, and we just want to be done with it.

- that is all....

The Finishing Touches

So moving is pretty much done! Now all we have to finish is organizing all the stuff in the loft. The place is comparable in size, but it's laid out so differently that it's gonna be tricky.
My room is also much smaller, but I feel like now the space is manageable.

Today the cable guy is coming to hook up our internet, and our cable... for an extra $20 a month on top of our internet, Abe got us a phone line and cable (including free HBO). I end up paying the same though, cause Abe needs a phone line for his business, so I end up scoring.

PS - can the new iMacs come out already so I can sell mine off and get one?

Road Kill

I was driving back from the Bjork concert on Saturday with some friends, and the 101 freeway was all backed up. Finally we saw that it was an accident ahead. When we drove by it, we saw a fire truck parked trying to cover up body parts all over the road, and there were a couple of police officers with huge zip-lock back-like bags filled with chunks and blood.

There were three body bags on the road... it was terrible.

One of the more disgusting thins I've seen.
There was also a car a bit smashed up, but I just couldn't figure out how three people got that messed up if the car was not that bad at all... maybe they weren't wearing their seatbelts? They were probably driving back from the concert...

renting, moving, crap, etc etb dkuwu2E@!!!!!!!

Today was a full day of looking at new places. It seems like every time we find the perfect place to move into, everything gets ruined because we're students, and they don't trust that we can make rent every month....

Current Status

1: My room looks like the Vietnam war.
2: ALL my clothes are dirty and I have only enough for one round of laundry.
3: Looking for a new place to live.
4: Busy week at school, but only a couple of weeks left!
5: Thinking about a couple of short, local trips to see friends around the US.
6: bkj#LKJ$%89(8!@@@!!!!

We Outs!

OK, so, I know it's been a while, but here it is. So the biggest news around these parts nowadays is the fact that we're having to move out...
The building sold, and they've kicked everyone out already. The girls upstairs and the couple in the back moved out almost a month ago.

It seems like we're gonna have to be out by June 1st. The COOL thing is, that it also seems like we might be getting a little bit of money from the agency that owns the place now.

Who knows what's gonna happen now, but the cool thing is that we're gonna get a much nicer place in a quieter area.

IN OTHER NEWS: School is done in like 3 weeks, and I'm hoping to start an internship for the summer. I can't WAIT for this summer to be honest. New place, inernship, some free time. It's gonna be nice.

ALSO: Going to Argentina for sure, and it seems like we've extended our stay to 3 weeks. Still, I won't be going to Antarctica this time around, cause even though I'll be able to afford it, it's too much money. Maybe some other time when I'm making a few million a year.

Lonelygirl15

I kept hearing about this 'lonelygirl15' on YouTube, so I decided to check it out. OMG what a waste of my fucking time!! It is officially a close 1st for the dumbest shit ever. It's a girl talking in an almost monotonous tone about how bored she is. YAWN

Why do these things become so popular?? I don't get it! Someone please explain it to me!

Anyway, check her out for yourself and see how dumb it is...
I won't even waste the energy in putting a link to it here, so just search for that screen name on YouTube.

The Sickness

So this last weekend was truly great. It was four straight days of drinking from thursday to sunday in honor of St. Patrick. It was a weekend filled with festivities, and joy..... and joyness. But there was one part of me that didn't have as much fun as I did... my immune system. Today I woke up, and it felt like I was just run over by the gigantic rolling ball from Indiana Jones 1, in that cave... remember?

I've stuffed myself today with all sorts of vitamins, and drank some tea and lots of water. I'm contemplating not going to school tomorrow though. Maybe I'll do my homework and email it to my friends to turn it in for me...
I just wanna stay in and watch movies.

I Am Happy

I just bought this camera.

Cameras

So I was at Sarah's party last night, and Sara (a different one, you'll notice there's not H) had pretty much the most amazing camera in the world. I've been talking to my mom about getting a camcorder soon to work on my video projects... but now I want a Digital SLR as well.
It honestly was unbelievable. You had to see this thing. I'll try to get my hands on the pictures I took with it, and share with the rest of you.

LOST, LOST, And More LOST

So after last week's episode, I was so mad at the show, and decided that I just don't care anymore about the show, that I just went online and started reading some spoilers to see if there is any hope for the future... and it turns out... yes, there is!

Thank god, honestly, cause I'm starting to lose all hope!

Wiki Fun

So I was bored in class today... I'm actually STILL in class, so I started using the random article feature on Wikipedia, and this is what I came up with:

What Christmas Means To Me

Minimum Chips

Pyeongtaek

Equilibrium Unfolding

It's been a busy week, so I very much look forward to this weekend.

Pool NOT Decomissioned

Yeah, so for the past like 8 months I thouht that the pool here at SFSU was decomissioned. Today I went to the gym to find out the weight room hours, and I found out that not only is the pool still open, but they have swimming AND water polo. Goodbye lazy days, HELLO swimming!

Party Crashers!

So I went to my friend Susan's house yesterday for her birthday. She was throwing this sushi and sake party with a bunch of people. We all drank quite a bit before leaving the house for a club downtown. We were on the guest list, but we got there too late, and they wanted to make us wait in the HUGE ass line and pay $20 EACH to get it... fuck that.

So we all started walking around looking for any old bar we could find. We spot one, and say what the hell, let's go. We go in, lots of people, cool DJ, etc etc. So we keep making our way in, until we finally get to a kitchen. Someone opens the refrigerator and there's (I'm not kidding) about 80 red stripes. We finally realize we've crashed a house party and said fuck it. We stayed for like 4 hours, just drinking for free. It was AWESOME!

See, if they would have had Budwiser instead or something, I would've said hell with them, Im OUT. But c'mon... RED STRIPE!!?? It was like a gift from the gods!!!

Done With MySpace!

That's right!!! I have cut the cord with the abomination that is known as MySpace! I just SO fed up with the lazy interface, the advertisements EVERYWHERE, and the 20+ requests weekly to join sex sites.

I'm am now 100% Facebook. Of course, that is, until Facebook becomes way too big for its own good, and begins to suck, which usually happens. Then there will be a new hot sensation in social networking, and I'll probably switch to that too.

My Friday Night

So it's Friday night, and this is what will follow:

+ Cue-ing up the third season of Scrubs
+ Watching one of three movies; Two For The Money, The Last Kiss, or The Navigator: A Time Travel Story.
+ Drinking the 70% Absinthe I brought from Europe... I've had two sips and I'm already buzzed.

Rock on......

Movies Galore

Our neighbor came back from Beijing with loads of pirated movies, and quite a few of them ACTUALLY at DVD quality. And I just came back from LA where I ripped about 13 movies from Mike. So right now, it's movie-ripping galore in my house, and the good ones too =)

YES!!!
