We needed something to do so we went to Krispy Kreme. While we were walking out after buying our grub this car drove by. The driver was a typical gangsta'-looking dude. His window was down, so when he passed by we heard a snippet of conversation: "...fucking cocksucker..." And he sounded pissed. What was that about? What kind of person buys donuts while pissed off? So anyway, we laughed for 10 minutes after that.

You gotta love stories like this: Monkeys Pelt Motorists On Interstate.

Right on! The UC schools refused to ban Napster. Don't take that shit from Metallica and Dr. Dre!

Today, er, yesterday was pretty cool. A lot of friends are in 2 of my classes so far, and that's always cool. Walking around campus I also ran into a bunch of people from the last 3 years I've been here. I also found out a friend lives right next door. Kind of odd how she's next door yet I didn't see her all week. Anyway, I went to Fry's and picked up a copy of This Is Spinal Tap on DVD, so now I have some entertainment this weekend. I also saw The Exorcist. Bleh, save your money. It was ok, I guess, but definitely not worth $8.00. Tomorrow, er, today I have nothing planned. I love living by the minute.

I went to my astronomy class today. No matter how many times I hear it, I still laugh at "this is Uranus." Heh heh. Then I have an operating systems class later and then I'm done for the week.

I'm at work right now for the first time in a week. Nothing's changed. No important emails. Nobody wondering where I was. At least I haven't been fired though. And it's just as boring here as it is at the apartment. I think I'll sneak out early and go to a comic book store or something.

Nerd Up!, a good article about nerds and coolness. High school sucked.

Hmmm...I don't quite know what to make of this: Darren Aronofsky, who directed the brilliant Pi a few years ago, is going to direct yet another Batman sequel, this one based on Frank Miller's Year One comic.

Among gamers, I always thought the flight sim nuts were the most hardcore, especially guys who use actual jet fighter cockpits. This guy found an old F-15 cockpit somewhere and he's gonna restore and use it.

Ex-Con Wants to Return to Prison So He Robs Bank. This story's kind of sad actually. A 76-year-old ex-con was lonely, so he robbed a bank of $100 so he could return to jail.

Chocolates and Porn Greet Students. God bless those Arabs.

Ewwwwww: Body Found in Lake After 16 Years. I bet it was all mossy and slimy and decayed, and fish had eaten the eyes out.

Man, I'm really fucking bored. I think I'll actually go to work tomorrow just so I have something to do. I'm actually looking forward to Friday when classes start. I wish I lived in the dorms again. The apartments are so quiet; nobody ever leaves their apartment to meet people. Well, I shouldn't be talking cause I don't leave my apartment either. But I don't meet people only cause nobody else meets people, and then it would look weird if I was the only one doing it. Well, I'm going to sleep. At 1:18. That's how bored I am.

Whoa, this camera's hardcore. It's a 16 megapixel camera back for medium format cameras. Considering that some of Kodak's 3 megapixel cameras cost around $16,000, I can't imagine how much this new camera back costs.

Whoa, this dude's hardcore. That picture's gonna be my new wallpaper.

Hey cool, Ellie from joopy goes to UCI too. I don't know anyone here who has a weblog, or even reads weblogs. Anyway, I just got back from the bookstore. Bought one of my books. The other ones weren't there. Stupid computer science can't even order textbooks right. They're also showing This Is Spinal Tap at one of the Humanities auditoriums tonight, so I picked up a few tickets for that.

Damnit, my arm's sore from moving stuff yesterday and it's killing me. Arrrgh, I can barely move the mouse.

I'm almost finished moving in to my new apartment now. We're way in the back corner, where it's nice and quiet. It's much cooler than my summer apartment too cause we have some big trees for shade. The weird thing is the new apartment is a mirror-image layout of the old apartment. Everything on my desk is arranged mirror-image too. That'll take a while to get used to.

This sounds like a cool idea. I'm gonna be moving into my new apartment tomorrow so it'll be semi-interesting stuff, not just be a bunch of pictures of me sitting at my computer looking at midget amputee porn.
