Dreams: What a waste of time
So here it is: All of this took place on a pier; one of those big piers in San Francisco bay. I was walking along the pier and it must’ve been a Wednesday right before sundown, ‘cuz it was pretty empty. So I’m walking along and I see a couple of my friends sitting at a table and I have a seat and have a quick chat about how I lost my phone and still haven’t got it...

A lesson in entropy...and i guess life in general
I though unemployment was going to be an amazing time where my life would get put back together again. I was going to re-center my priorities, make a list of the things that I wanted to accomplish in life and try to do everything in my power to get them done, start getting active in church again…and I thought it was going to happen naturally. Too bad things don’t happen that way....
Watch[Low-quality footage of some roller coasters: Goliath, Scream, Viper and Colossus. Background music by Blur and the Foo Fighters.]
I lent out my camera, so I couldn’t export video like I usually do, so the footage came out a little weak. But at least the music’s still sweet…oh and by the way I am officially unemployed so I guess this roller coaster video’s an analogy of...

I gotta say that catching a baseball game in the summertime is pretty sweet. Nice weather, honey-roasted peanuts and corn nuts, overpriced food and...
My 9 Months at 2K Games
Alright, for the last 9 months, I’ve been working at 2K Games as a Quality Assurance tester. And I gotta say that it’s been one of the more interesting periods of my life. Well, now that I think about it, I haven’t really had too many periods in my life. Just 4 periods really: K-12, the on-going puberty (cracking voice, bad acne, and constantly discovering hair where there...
