Destiny?
Okay, I am here to tell you about a very weird thing that happened to me the day before yesterday. I'd been spending a day out on the town, finally taking advantage of a Christmas gift card (got it down to a near-perfect 51 cents, but that's neither here nor there), and thought that as long as I was in the area I'd hit up Kinokuniya.
I went in and ( Read more... ) -

(11:23:01 AM) P: wow, just read an awesome argument against MMOs
(11:23:36 AM) P: "As is the same with almost all RPGs, the player never gains any actual skill at the game. In a game like Metal Slug or Street Fighter, the more one plays, the better one becomes. In RPGs, the game just levels up the player character, giving new skills and faster ( Read more... ) -
And a belated happy new year to you!
Yeah, I'm alive!
Animation update: the intermediate is complete (COMPLETE!), while the advanced is cleaned up. I'm working on colors, and need to find someone for sound design, but I've done enough to get a grade (or so I have been led to believe; I'm meeting with my professor this week). However, my primary focus right now is finding a job.

And today's phrase of the day is...
"Follow up."
Sounds a lot like "follow through," words which will frustrate me until I am no longer young (due entirely to Dad's undeterred backseat bowling). But this one's more useful, trust me.
In other words, I papered the skies with internship applications a week or two or three ago. Today, I finally got up the nerve to follow up. My parents ( Read more... ) -

The first is hilarious. The second is adorable and uplifting in a "shouldn't this be bringing me down?!" kind of way.
I ... I can't stop watching either of them.

life update!
It's official - I'll be living in New York for at least a year more. P (the charming SO) and I signed the lease today. The apartment is ours starting May 1st! Since I don't have to leave my dorm until May 13th, that gives me some time to pack and shuffle the unnecessaries over. Less stress, yay!
As for the place - it's an adorable, spacious ( Read more... ) -

Weird things that have happened in the last two days:
1. As I was jogging across the street, a punk in leather approached from the other corner. He stopped me hurriedly. "Excuse me - wait - are you done with that cup?!" I gave it to him and he ran off.
..I wonder what he did with it?
2. I tried to open the fridge and the handle snapped off. There ( Read more... ) -
AAAAGH
Two weeks ago:
Me: Should I e-mail the animation professor? I don't know if he's expecting me to present anything on the first day of class.
P: Well, wouldn't he tell you if that was the case?
Me: Yeah, yeah, you're right. Okay.
Today:
Dear G,
Welcome to Advanced Animation Production. If you have them ready, please be prepared to present your ( Read more... ) -

Oh, man, I've barely been on the Internet at all. It's weird and kind of invigorating. So, happy holidays! I am at home in VA, hanging out with friends and family. :3 Working weekdays, and it's great to be back. Sunrises are pretty swell.
It is so cool having a watch again. It's like it was never gone. I am no longer fruitlessly checking ( Read more... ) -

I just got this e-mail:
Dear students,
My cat is stuck inside my chimney. I need to stay home for the animal rescue people to come in today. I regret to inform you that I will not be in the classroom today BUT the class is not cancelled. You all are to come in today and practice together with your group for the exam tomorrow. Have a good practice and ( Read more... )
