i’m just going to leave this window open and write things/observations i think throughout the day.

i miss the days when daft punk was alive and well in clubs.

why are chicks always the bass player?

i hope i get to see juno this friday. hmm, but i’m supposed to have a patio bison burger lunch . . . i guess i’ll just have to trek it back.

i’m sick of not being the weight i want to be, but i’m too lazy to exercise and i like delicious food/alcohol too much.

my hair is ridiculously easy to curl.

i want my ddr mats to arrive so i can do something remotely active and break in a ‘new’ game at the same time.

paralyzers are scarily easy to drink.

i want professional head shots.

i finally updated wordpress, but the main problem i was having still isn’t solved. oh well, it’s not important anyway.

interstella 5555: the 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ytem is awesome.

i need disposable income for games (xbox 360) and cute accessories and shoes.

how does dane cook keep getting movie roles?

i’m bored and hurty.

i think i’m done because my back hurts too much and i want to nap.

i shall listen to daft punk while i sleep.

filler/bartending

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

i’ve been meaning to move on from that last post simply because i feel . . . stupid for admitting that. it’s almost too personal, or maybe it seems too shallow for me to want to share it publicly. me talking about it now isn’t helping.

i finally took my bartending test and i got 87%. not bad, but not great either. i guess it’s okay considering i took the course about a year ago. i mostly screwed up on glassware and the rare drinks that no one orders: yellow bird, champagne cocktail and a dr pepper. working in the club industry didn’t help either because you’re making basic screws or fizzes (ooh, industry lingo) and you use one type of glass no matter what. also, beer comes in a can or bottle, so i didn’t get to test out my pouring skills or any mixed beer drinks.

it’s two a.m. i’ll go to sleep soon. i have class at three and an assignment due at twelve.

on the suggestion of my teachers on the basis of including video and sound into an electronic media kit, i’ve downloaded a lot of free audio and video editing software. i’ll talk about my adventures into audio and video editing at a later time. it’s so much fun. before i started, i was so excited to be able to manipulate the things i create. i don’t know why people complain that it’s so laborious. it’s just plain fun. the hard part (and i’ve always known this) is making decisions as to what needs to be cut, or which drum loop truly sounds better. it’s the agony of not being sure if what you’ve pieced together is an accurate portrayal of the idea behind the media.

i could go on like this, but there’s sleep to be had.

p.s. i forgot to add that i got the best phone call today. jeff surprised me at midnight with a phone call. it was so good just to hear his voice. it kind of made me miss him more though. i was already going through withdrawal.
