A productive practice

We had a really good practice today. We managed to leaven vertually 80% of this Immortal song in about 2 hours. The song structure is fairly simple but each riff is so complexe so getting the timing right is difficult. But is was interesting how we went from basically totally chaos to something that kind of sounds like a fucked up version of One By One. I'm wicked worn out now, I think I'll be hitting the hay ..... now!

Zzz...

Damn non soft pavement

So I went on a nice bike ride yesterday up to bever brook falls. It was very seanic and such, virtually no bugs and no people around. The day was sunny and the weather was pleasantly cool. I couldn't of had a better time, that was untill I rode down to the bottom of the hill on my way back. I road my bike under the chain at the gate like I've done a million times before, but this time I got smacked in th face with some thorny ass bush. So I ended up wiping out big time. I skidded to a halt on my left arm after about 5 feet or so, my huge keychain got smooshed into my left leg and gave me a wicked bruise. So I'm missing about a 2" x 5" section of my skin on my arm, and as you might guess, it hurts like all hell. It's amazing I don't just give up on riding my bike all together, hehe

How'd we get in this hand basket? ... and where are we going?

It really has gotten to the point where I dread reading the news. It's not the ever increasing body count in sensless wars that I dislike, that is just getting tedious. No, it's the way the that across the world governments everwhere are fucking over their citizens. Chielfly among them is the US. It seems that the majority of americans are willing to drink the kool-aid just as fast as the white house can serve it up. Doesn't it seem that people stopped giving a shit all the sudden and are will to put up with the authoritites abusing their power and stealing away our privacy? The feds want a total servailance soceity, they are working on ways to track every person inside thier borders. Meanwhile they are pissing off the rest of the world with wild abandon. Even Rome fell in about 200 years, people don't realise that we're on our way out. I want out before this country crumbles around our heads.

Here comes the tempest

Today is the day I start workign again. How I'm not looking forward to it. I suppose it really could be worse, but all the same I really hate the hours. I helped Sandy move into her appartment yesterday, and it's pretty cool. I was really surprised actually, it's quite the setup and give her more than ample private space. I've also got an interview with the IT group today at 11, so maybe I can actually get a job on campus that pays better (imagine that?). I guess I'm going to have to bring some kind fo lunch with me today, but there isn't a whole lot around here that looks like lunch materials.. oh well. The student center will be open for a little while at least. I bet it's going to be wicked dead in the lab today, I'm going to have to keep myself entertained with making screen savers for Mac OS 10.4

Fuckign Sociology bullshit

So my grades all got posted today, and I got a fuckign AB in sociology. That really pissed me off because that's the first time that I've been given anythign lower than an A. I know this sounds fucking absurd, but it really gets to me, I don't know why. I guess I'm just too much of a perfectionist . I knew it couldn't last forever, but it's nice to dream... I guess I wont be dreaming anymore.

New Blog layout

I got bored with this boring black background, so I made myself a sweeter one. I think it kicks ass, but I guess I'm biased ;)

What a day

Well I haven't had the most exciting day that's for sure, but it hasn't been all bad. I had to bring Sandy down to the bus station this morning. It was nice that her bus came a full 5 mins early for once! Then ever since I got home my mom was giving a million things to do today... But I figured I should do it since I'm going to be spending more time at home now that school is out. The last thing I need is for her to start getting on my case because " I don't DO anything around the house". I rode my bike down to the post office this afternoon as well since my mom wanted me to buy her some post card stamps. It wasn't too bad, I actually made it there and back in probably about 10 mins. I'm pretty sure that's faster than if I tried to drive there, and it didn't use any gas! The rest of the day was a lot of shooting things in DOOM 3 :D

Totally out of school... for now

Well it's been one hell of a semester, and it's finally over. I spent most of this mornign helping Sandy move all of her stuff into my house to store for the summer. It took a few trips but we got it all. Then she bought me lunch at teh DC and it was actually pretty good for once! Well she's all passed out in my bed so I should probably go to sleep soon too.

Holy shit, there really are ligers

This is pretty bizzar... I think people have pushed the envelope a little too far. I was also reading not so long ago about how researchers are implanting human cells into the embryos of "lesser animals" and the result is sheep that have human livers, and mice with human brains. This seems like an increadibly stupid idea to me, first of all, there is no beinifit to the animal, the human cells within them aren't neatly clumped together so they couldn't even be used as an organ doner. It's seems like a childish "look what fucked up thing I can do", or "mommy mommy, come look at the weird mutant beast I created". If they really want to do reasearch why not put fucking animal cells in human embryos? ehh?! Sounds pretty exciting right?! Oh, but wait.. that's not "ethical", but it's cool for the vice to be true... fools.

A little birthday quizeroo
