My god it's boring here. Remember when I used to complain that it was boring in the dorms? This apartment is 10x worse. One roommate went home and the other 2 are sleeping. I wish there were some cute girls living around. Then I could, uh...not talk to them.

I went to Best Buy today hoping to get Diablo 2. $59.99!!! Um, I think I'll wait a couple months til they're on sale.

Nice office. Now that's a cubicle I wouldn't mind working in.

Ha ha ha! Fashion Craze Deprives Planes of Seatbelts. This is the funniest thing I've heard all week.

The Megacar is loaded with neat high-tech gadgets like 4 video screens, a DVD player, 153 kbps net access, a Pentium III computer, and ethernet ports for each seat. This is what I would do to my car if I were filthy stinking rich. They also have an Audi A8 version.

Once again, take that Nike! This Nike.com hijacking thingy just gets better and better.

Chicken! It would've been so cool if John Rocker actually went through with it. I would've given anything just to be on the subway train at the exact moment he got in.

I'm happy to report that Opera 4 works beautifully. All the annoying little bugs in the beta were eliminated. However, Blogger still doesn't work. I finished writing this exact same post in Opera and I went for the "post" button, and I couldn't find it. Damn, looks like I still can't uninstall Netscape.

The final version of Opera 4 is now available. I hope it's better than the beta though. I've been using it for 2 weeks now and it crashes a lot, and it's kinda sluggish when resizing pages. I loved version 3.62 though.

This is so cool that I must post it: Sacked Intel Geek Wreaks Terrible Revenge. This Intel employee was fired, so the next day he sabotages Intel's fabrication plant. Fight the power! Don't take any shit from anybody. The article doesn't mention why the guy was fired, but if it was for an unjust reason, such as age discrimination (he was 62), I completely support him.

Ah ha! No wonder Survivor is so popular. 13% of viewers "Are big longtime fans of Ramona, the Edison, NJ, chemist." I actually watched last week's episode and I liked it, if only for the cute college girl(s) in bikinis.

Four high school seniors were not allowed to go to their graduation for publishing an "underground newspaper." Now I remember why I hated high school. Fortunately I never got into any trouble when I made a zine in high school. Although, one time someone tried to get me busted. One of my school counselors found a copy of my zine on the principal's desk and took it before the principal saw it. Apparently someone had put it there hoping the principal would read it and say "That's obscene and offensive, we need to suspend this kid." Although it's kinda cool that my counselor saved me, it's fucked up that someone wanted to get me in trouble over it.

Diablo 2 is out! I'm gonna get a copy as soon as I can, preferably the special edition. And, unsurprisingly, there's already a patch.

So finally we start seeing laptops and web appliances that use Transmeta's Crusoe processor. Apparently notebooks that use Crusoe have an 8 hour battery life and don't generate as much heat as regular notebooks. Sounds like very exciting stuff. I might even buy a Crusoe notebook when they're finally for sale later this year.

I haven't been posting much lately. Mostly cause I've been busy with summer school and apartment life and all that. It's kind of weird when you come home from class, expecting to eat lunch, and then you realize you have to cook lunch yourself. Doh! So I had a frozen burrito for lunch. Well, I microwaved it first, of course. Eating it cold would've just been silly. But anyway, I have a lot more things to do, so...

Alright, I'm all moved in. The apartment is much better than I thought it would be. The kitchen and bathroom were remodeled, so they no longer have that dated, kitschy 70s look. The desks are huge, I have so much table space I don't know what to do with it. These are the on-campus apartments, so most classes are 3 minutes away. This summer's going to be cool.

Moving back to Irvine today for summer school. Yep, I had a nice little 1 week summer vacation. I'm going to be living in an apartment this time, rather than the dorms. That means I have to cook for myself now. I think I'm going to starve. At least it won't be as hot as it's been here in Pasadena the past few days.
