Do I Know You?
>gettin chilly out. lets worship Satan!

As I was walking about campus, I found myself behind a woman who was veiled head to toe except for a very small area around her eyes. As I walked beside her, another woman approaching our direction glanced at her and started a conversation with her about classes and what not in a way which I would assume means they know each other as friends.
My big question is: how did she know the veiled woman was her friend? All you can see is her eyes. I mean, I understand that there are few fully veiled people around our area, but still... I can only imagine what it must be like in the middle east where there's hundreds of women all fully covered. Fucking confusing.

I am so sick of the same shit different day kinda life. Life isn't bad- I have an awesome job, I have free time to work out, watch TV, play videogames and pokemon cards, and I'm still in school (which I'm counting as a good thing). Yet really I feel unsatisfied. My room is a mess, but cleaning it won't make anything better, and I'm really hungry for a big ass Moe's burrito, but the nearest one closed unexpectedly a couple weeks ago- just like how they did when I worked at the one down the street on Michigan...
My biggest problem isn't not being able to do anything (though money/time scheduling is certainly a factor) but deciding on what to actually do. I need a partner in crime per se, but it seems everyone is already busy. I need someone who wants to play Starcraft, Serious Sam co-op, WoW, watch Star Trek TNG, and a whole shit ton of other random stuff. I already do most of this crap alone, but I really feel that it's so much better with another person who knows what they're doing, especially in Starcraft.
On a more serious note, I was asked to consider being the "Perspectives" columnist for the U of M Dearborn paper yesterday afternoon by one of their members. Apparently I can write about "anything" I want which would be awesome, and I'm thinking about looking into it a bit more and actually taking the position. Not only would it look good for getting a job, but being able to have a published story once a week on whatever is catching my attention would be amazing in my book.

I am so happy that I can buy my own beer now. No more asking for favors. All I need to do is try every kind out there so I can be an aficionado. Not really because I want to be well versed in beers, but only to be able do describe myself as an aficionado. Its a fun word.

i'm such cool.

It feels good to finally have beaten Professor Layton for the DS, although really it could have had a better ending. Also, somehow I missed one single puzzle which would have rewarded me with the final piece of the robot dog. As I found out from my brothers, they all completed their dogs about halfway through the game, while I was missing one single piece to it for about 7 hours of playtime...

I Don't Wanna

I feel no motivation to do anything. I barely want to play videogames most of the time. I just cant bring myself to really do much of anything and it's the worst feeling in the world. Why does nothing seem to interest me anymore? I just read The Lost Symbol and while I finished it, I can't say that I was all that interested in what I was reading. Maybe it was the book, though it is right up my alley for the kind of subject matter I look to read about.

For starting my summer so productive, I've really come to a standstill on accomplishing anything. Partially it has to do with my former employer, Buddy's Pizza, who thanks to what seems to be both incompetent and bitter management have fired me from my job, yet LIED on their paperwork to make it out that I quit, which means I can't get unemployment. Doesn't matter though because I'm fairly positive I can get unemployment or force them to give me a job back. Either way, I have more than enough ammo for a full blown lawsuit against them and I plan on doing as much as I can to make sure the people responsible for doing this to me get screwed just as hard as they tried to screw me.
I AINT NO BITCH AND YOU AINT GONNA TRY TO FUCK ME LIKE ONE.

Random Thoughts Recap

I finally beat Shining Force 2, or in this case Resurrection of the Dark Dragon. Doing nothing but taking it easy since my heart acted up gave me a lot of time and motivation for finishing all the shit I never completed. Shining Force took me almost 11 years to beat since I've played it multiple times on emulators for PC, Dreamcast, and finally completed a game on my GBA copy. Feels good man. Ending was good, but nothing terribly amazing or over the top. Either way, it was a blast to play with all the fun characters and battles.
So now I've started playing Professor Layton and the Curious Village which I messed around with last year but never started a file on. This game fucking rocks. The animations are well done, the characters are well designed, the fact that there is an adventure type game on the DS is awesome, and the hundreds of puzzles are all really entertaining and occasionally frustrating. I can't begin to describe how annoyed I get when I try to figure a puzzle out for 15 minutes only to finally realize the question itself features some sort of wordplay or oh-so-subtle hint that instantly gives the solution away.
E3 is only a week away and I am pretty excited to see what everybody is going to be showing off. I'm most pumped about the 3DS since I love Nintendo handhelds and since its an actual successor to the DS which I think is one of the most quality systems I've ever used. I'm curious to see what the new Zelda will look like and feature as well as if there will actually be a new Kirby game(hopefully for Wii since there's very little console love for Kirby). Outside of Nintendo, I want to see what Natal has in store, and especially how much it will actually cost. For some insane reason I doubt that a majority of xbox users will want this thing -they want SHOOTAN GAEMS. Sony is the most questionable for me since the PSP essentially sucks, PS3 has no appeal to me outside of it being a blu-ray player, and their motion controller looks pretty ridiculous.
I've got a lot more to say, but that will be tomorrow...

Not the Macaulay Culkin kind
I'm looking for an answer in every single room. Home alone, and all I see are problems I won't trouble myself to solve, but trouble me to the point of physical breakdown. They're not mine, but I'm still affected, and in the worst possible ways. A failing system begets a failing ruler who plummets all into chaos, clutter, and in one case agony.

I've got that feeling of dread. Doom is upon me. Something is trying to kill me and I'm not sure how to handle it.

CHEMTRAILS IN THE SKY

I don't know if it was just exhaust from the airways above my house, but the grid of eerie colored smoke covering the sky the other night made me think it looked a little too unnatural.
The Playboy energy drink has the same color scheme as a Rockstar, a black can, and it sits next to the other Rockstar flavors in the cooler. By accidentally purchasing one, I'll accidentally give it a 6/10.
Starcraft 2 is the answer to my dreams and the cause of a nightmare of scheduling conflicts. I pencil others in around my play time...

It Starts Again
starcraft2 beta- time to neglect loved ones
---
I'm completely in love with the Starcraft 2 beta. It's the same game I fell in love with years ago, yet still completely full of surprises and awesome moments that keep me playing and playing until I can't think anymore, then going back and watching my replays.
I'm alright with Terran, I've almost got my Zerg build orders straight, and although I initially wanted to play Protoss they're the only ones I have had difficulty getting right while fighting people. Thankfully the new, expanded beta brought a lot of newer players into the game which made it easy for me to rack up a few wins and get some easy time to get a grip on how everything works. Unfortunately, I get distracted watching the battles and cool graphics on the units and end up not building or managing economy for a few moments.

I started playing Pokemon Platinum again. It's the shit. Have 7 badges, caught Girantina, about to get the 8th badge tonight or over the course of the week. Infernape is an alright starter, its the first time I have ever not chosen the water type. Gengar is sweet as hell, of course, and I still have a Dragonair and Pupitar, both level 48. I'll have both Dragonite and Tyranitar soon since they also both evolve at 55 which is sorely needed.
I don't know what it is, but Pupitar is kind of shitty with its spread of stats. It barely excels in any one area (technically it has high attack, but whatever...) and its low speed usually means I don't even get to go on a killing spree since hes forced to take more hits than any of my other guys. He's been the hardest to level up, but once I get Tyranitar I'll be perfect. I've never actually used a Dragonite or Tyranitar on a team before except for filling up the pokedex and I already like how it's going to turn out. Dragonair is already the shit and it only gets better once it learns hyper beam.

Decade
its MY decade

Well shit, it's a new decade already. Don't know where the past 10 years went since I have little to show for them. Time is so depressing to think about, especially because you only know how much you had once it's already gone.
Time is the fire in which we burn.
Thank you Delmore Schwartz.
