BUT THEY AREN'T SENDING THEM TO SOUTH AMERICA!!!

beta band is amazing and a half

i got my zen in the mail, and i received almost all of my computer parts
except for the MOBO!
i think i shall make this my major project for adv. tech, but still do all the major work for my A+ deal

i also got accepted at michigan tech!!! complete with an email address there, and everything
look at me grow up

AND I HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED WE <3 KATAMARI YET!!!!!

as far as pop culture goes...

• im almost completely finished with everything bad is good for you, and it's alright quasi informative, but also incredibly repetative
• i still have my chucks paper to do, but it shall be finished by the end of the week

now as far as advanced tech goes...

reflection on "The Player" by Ethan Watters
if i could in any way, minus the collapse of atari in 1983, end up like Nolan Bushnell I would consider my life complete and my time in school worth it. to produce a product, and then manage two sucessful household name companies would be INSANE and a half. however, the part where he talks about modern courtship and how you can use video games to talk to girls is weird...
the best part was when he described getting his MBA by scamming people but making them have fun about it.

reflection on 10 cards go toe-to-toe in five world- title matches
all of these gpu's are more expensive than my entire computer...

a lot to say

blogger never works half the time

i reasearched chuck taylor's converse all-stars
more tomorrow though

i bought various computer parts to throw together and make a computer
and a zen mp3 player

pirates of silicon valley is amazing and a half

ill reply to those articles later because im exhausted right now

michigan tech

so, i missed the past few days of school to visit michigan tech
which was amazing and a half
i applied to the business school there, but my advisor wants me to branch off into other science/math/engineering type activities since im a math person
i hope financial aid whatnots go through because i really want to go next year
because i dont want to pretend to be a civil engineer at ann arbor for four years

i still have to finish cisco ch.2, IT ess. ch. 2, and my paper for pop culture
in addition to "everything bad is good for you"
which, i have been enjoying since i can make sense out of his thesis
the highlight so far has been an essay written in the form of video games having been invented before reading and thus describes how detrimental reading is to society

also, my hatred of cars and my computer has risen to disgusting levels these days
mainly because betwixt the two im going to be spending 1000$ish

right now my laptop's screen is burned out, the internet card fried and im using my mothers, im using both USB ports for a keyboard and mouse, the battery died and the charger (turned power supply) likes to fall out of its socket so its held in with tape
and the sound sucks, my monitor likes to have seizures on the screen, and my printer refuses to anything but tell me it has an error

im sitting next to jen

well, i was going to write about how awesome ray kurzweil's performance was last night

but i'd rather come up with ideas on why pagnani is not here today

1. he could not get his crack this morning
2. he's parking r.k's car
3. he's playing cat's cradle
4. he really did go to olp last night and it was too intense for him
5. tiny escaped
6. r.k turned him off (meaning pagnani's a robot)
7. we love katamari comes out today
8. something somethign computer something soul
9. he got his nano in the mail

WHY YOU DO ME SO WRONG PAGNANI

i am... A SENIOR and ted leo is amazing

its a new semester....

and i have to nurture this blog for both pop culture AND adv. tech
i dont think cisco though, but i will say that...
osi models are super happy fun and tcp/ip models are sad and emo

i wish i had taken pop culture and literary intensive at the same time because there are about 7 or 8 books that geoff pulled out in class that i would die to read
right now my list includes...

everything bad is good for you, 8 ball chicks (which im going to read before i get back from michigan tech)
technopoloy
hey nostradamus
generation x
all families are psychotic
eleanor rigby

the last four books are all by douglas coupland


ADVANCED TECH
aside from putting up pagnani's cd's on one of his walls
and him wearing a happiness is not a fish shirt by olp

the "can high tech save your life?" article simply highlights a detail in the dissolution of technology into regular life
its a more precise way of doing things, and surely the numbers reinforce this
the technology used can reduce human error, but we still should not rely on it to be perfect
just like we shouldn't rely on medication to solve all of our health problems, but thats another story

typically, dependencies on anything other than yourself aren't something that should be seen as beneficial at all, and technology in medicine surely helps us like the internet
but it doesn't excuse doctors from learning conventional practices

id card on most likely a cisco lanyard

one man army

today dearest matthew is wearing an our lady peace shirt with a fish on the front of it; a fish belt to keep the theme; gray-blue pants and blue sneakers

erg i missed a day

i missed a date...


yesterday dearest matthew was wearing a black "I run with scissors" shirt that nobody got, and i'm sure he wore matching pants and shoes

today matthew is wearing a brown shirt with white patterns on it, as well as lightly coloured work pants and brown doc martins

surprisingly, i have not seen the cisco lanyard at all this week

he is also still sporting a soul patch

today dearest matthew is wearing stylish black dress shoes, black slacks with a black belt and a blue pinstriped shirt; no tie but a cisco lanyard around his neck (probably an ID attached to that)

biogradable hands

arg for stresslike whatnot

so I always thought I would love having a car, but after paying for one for a month and having STILL no name of mine on the insurance under liability, and none in sight for like two weeks more at least... I have come to realise how much I would love to crash that car into a building 60 miles and hour and walk away while it's still up in fumes

plus i couldn't get the network thinger running and my dad yelled at me for stealing his cables.


and i'm behind in my A+ stuff but I'll get it all done this weekend and then study next week to take my test before may. and then i'll be on part due

i hate standardized tests

I left my stuff at school and the networking thing isn't working.

please remember that both MEAPS and ACT's were taken this week so my head is about to explode.

i got two words fo ya, KEEP IT REAL

boo for not bringing materials to class because MEAPS SUCK

I also left them at home but since I'm on chapter 8 it's not so bad. I'm not sure I entirely remember going through ch.7 but since it was all labs and within the labs I remember how to do everything I guess I'll do fine. I really want to get the first book done by may and since I don't ahve my nifty hasselhoff calender around me I shall assume thats what I had laid out anyway. That way I can take the first part of the test, as I am informed by teh Pagnanius.

I really really need to come up with something for my flash cartoon, becuase I have absolutely nothing planned. How about... that thinger in Donnie Brasco where he's like FAHGETABOUTIT. and stuff. I SHALL MAKE MY OWN GANGSTA GENRE MOVIE!

Speaking of movies I really really relaly want to do a documentary abotu file sharing but andrew is all like... having his panties in a bunch and not letting me. He wants to do a spinoff of Supersize Me and go to Burger King and do King me. Unfortunate for him, I do not wish to provide the funding or teh talent for this documentary. But I reaaaaaaaaally want to do a documentary on file sharing and all the things going on the with Supreme Court.

Man I wish more companies used Firefox... meaning the library.

Urg for headache so ta ta for now.
