Schedule

I know, I was supposed to be updating more often. School is to blame. I’m not too sure who is wondering, but I thought it’d be interesting enough to show what a normal day for me is like. 7:45 am. … Continue reading

Summer is Over

I finally realized that this summer post is holding me back from updating more frequently. I’m starting to forget some of the things that have happened so far in my college experience. Here’s that entry. It’s a little less elaborate … Continue reading

Memories

Remember when Kama melted the Undertaker’s urn and turned it into a huge gold chain? That was straight gangster.

Short Seattle Post

Before finishing that summer entry, I thought I’d do a little update about my time so far at UW. Food. When using my Husky card to purchase things on my food account everything feels free. It’s pretty fabulous. Of course, … Continue reading

One More Summer Night

Here is one last entry about the summer and Oak Harbor before I type up something gigantic about my move-in experience. Paul’s and my brother’s posts inspired me a bit. I’m stealing a good amount of moments from Paul’s list. … Continue reading

Packing

Whoever says there’s nothing to do in Oak Harbor is wrong. I’m still in the process of packing and jamming things into my brother’s car. Right now just seemed like a good time to post, since I’m about to disconnect … Continue reading

Monday Night, Funday Night

Audition. Again, we watched another crazy Japanese movie. Again, I slept through the middle of a movie. The beginning was just so boring, but the end definitely picked up the slack. Actually, the end was a bit much. I was … Continue reading

Game Time

Jogas. I’m on my brother’s PBL team now. We won our first game yesterday. I was on fire and hitting everything. After warm-ups, I didn’t touch the basketball again. Still, it was an exciting game. With the game tied and … Continue reading

Losing Streak

Yesterday, I’m pretty sure I lost every game I played. I couldn’t fix Paul’s computer. I didn’t beat any Burnout 3 missions. In NBA Live, I lost to Paul twice, Chris once, and Marvin twice. Then we went to the … Continue reading

Halfway Productive

With no work and nothing else on schedule, I had planned to clean the house and wash some clothes. I cleaned my bedroom and a bathroom, and washed two loads, but that was the end of my productivity. My $250 … Continue reading

Camping Trip Number Two: Part Two

Breakfast. We woke up around 9:00. For a good twenty minutes, Jerry got the morning love stare from Junior and me. When the morning woods settled down, we got out of the tent. I’m not trying to be gross, just … Continue reading

Nas is Like

Bumbershoot was awesome. Actually, I can’t speak for the entire span of the event, but the five hours we spent at the Seattle Center were great. We went for the Nas performance, and he definitely didn’t disappoint. I’ve never seen … Continue reading

Sonic Boom

Paul and I played Hyper Street Fighter while Chris and Harvey hit the tables at the Poker Room. After his Ken jump kicked my Zangief to death, we agreed on a first-to-ten series. Trash was spoken, and it was pretty … Continue reading

Race Day

Jason beat me bad. We ran 100 meters like the last time, but the results weren’t as surprising. He ran like a man possessed a few months ago, while I was sick and fatigued. Today, there were no excuses. I … Continue reading

Pocket Queens

We might be playing poker a little bit too much, and we’ve been having a lot of fun. Adding two and two together, poker usually means fun–and you also have pocket twos. Junior won the two dollar game with the … Continue reading

Pam’s Debut

A Week Between Posts

Goodbye Bizomb

I’ll Fold

Tetris

Today I worked another slow day at the comissary, then Curt and I sat around my house waiting for Jason. I cooked some chicken yakitori without skewering the meat, so it might have just been teriyaki. Good food by any … Continue reading

Curt Dominates

Tonight Curt, Jason, Russ, and I sat around a local computer store for their Warcraft Wednesday tournament. It was a modest eight-player, triple-elimination tournament. The rules were quirky, not to mention the lack of Frozen Throne and any patches whatsoever. … Continue reading
