What a glorious and wonderful day it is today. This is all that needs to be said for now.

It will be said that the despot assures his subjects civil tranquillity. Granted; but what do they gain, if the wars his ambition brings down upon them, his insatiable avidity, and the vexations conduct of his ministers press harder on them than their own dissensions would have done? What do they gain, if the very tranquillity they enjoy is one ( Read more... )

Oh spring break, where have you gone? You are a crafty one you are, escaping me like that. Oh well, I guess we weren't meant to be together indefinitely. I tried to pin you down, but wanderlust got the best of you and you departed. We had some good moments, but I was kidding myself thinking it would last. When it rained the first three days I ( Read more... )

Well, spring break is almost upon me. Most of the time will no doubt be spent getting caught up in the homework business. School has been fairly well so far this semester. I've only had an average of one overwhelming day per week recently, thats doing fairly well. I finally got the check from GEICO reimbursing me for my old bike. That was some ( Read more... )

I watched Party Monster tonight. It was a good movie, I liked it. I had bought it at Rasputin for $8, so it was worth it. Thank you Rasputin for cheap used DVDs. I also bought Blade Runner for my Type 4 class. We have this new thing were we are typographically interpreting a scene from a movie. Hence, my movie shopping. Anyway, I really liked Party ( Read more... )

Ah, thank god the week is almost over. Really this week wasn't all that bad, I ended up having most everything done well in time. It was a good week overall, the details of which are not that exciting. I have two big 30x40 posters due on Monday and Tuesday though... *sees plotter getting over-jammed ( Read more... )

This rain has got to end. Each time I get ready to shoot photos for GD4 it starts to pour rain. That is very frustrating, and that was what I wanted to accomplish the most this evening. But no, the weather will not cooperate. It had better be really nice and sunny in the morning. I am really fed up with all of the work that I am having to do right ( Read more... )

So, my birthday party was lots of fun. Only a couple of people from CCA showed up, but fortunately Erwin and Brittany invited at lot of people, so at least it felt like I was popular. I only actually knew about half the people there. I had a really good time, there were a lot of cute guys. I didn't make out with any of them though. :( Brittany got ( Read more... )

Today was pretty good. I stayed up until 2am last night tweaking on my "yellow" video. But I slept until 9am, so it was all good. I don't think many people in the class appreciated it in its entirety. The biking scene was too jerky and long for people I think. But that was the point, riding a bike in busy traffic is really nerve wracking and ( Read more... )

I've been really busy the past couple of weeks. Mostly it is just school stuff and dealing with the insurance company about the bike accident and bills. School is going along pretty well. We've been doing a lot of analog photography, which gets really expensive. So, needless to say I have been rather broke all around since school started ( Read more... )
