Saturday, September 30, 2000Just got off the phone with the parents...I was just so busy this last week that I didn't call. I found out my dad's moving up to the Bay, which is really really dope. He got a phat new job, and everyone's stoked about it.*chime* the "Year Of Good Fortune" strikes again...=) If you've been keeping up, you'd kno what I'm talking about. Anyhoo, I had the typical conversation with mom. "Are you eating your vegetables?" Well, I'm sorta slippin' on that, y'see I've been so busy and... "Go out to those Vietnamese restaurants and ask them to give you vegetables" Alrite ma, I'll look for some places... "Oh, I saw some Lysol disinfectant you should get for the bathroom" What for? "The germs!" But I like the germs "And becareful when you come home late, I know your neighborhood isn't very safe" Nah, its alrite ma...."And call your brother, he's been trying to call you but you're always online" Yeah, I'll call him right afterwards "And tell him to call your dad" Love ya ma...
Friday, September 29, 2000...I'm online, just looking for any information on how to take care of my little rat situation. I look up rats on Yahoo! and there's not ONE site on how to deal with them...instead, I find gobs and gobs of "rat love" sites. A few quotes:
*whew* I'm pooped...I got the "Me" section up, so if u ever wondered who's writing all this jazz, don't. Go check out the page. I'm also working on a new section...the link, as you can see, is already up on the main page, but the page isn't loaded yet. I'll let you kno when. Anyhoo...today was my hard day, and I got through it alrite. Tomorro, there's just a little homework to be finished, and a drawing workshop. Pretty kick back. Man, my biological clock is ALL out of whack...I've had 4-5 hours of sleep the last 2 days, and its nearly 5 in the morning...man, its whacked out. Okay, I feel like a vampire. I need sleep...more tomorro.
Thursday, September 28, 2000Well, today was a very productive day. I spent 12 hours at school...and I was actually focused and doing work the whole time...oh yeah, there was a Mickey D's break at around 6ish, but other than that, man, I was on point. Yeah yeah, I hear ya, "Mickey D's tastes like cardboard bro! Its like, they package the hamburger in cardboard, so you expect to open the cardboard box to find the treasure, not to find something that tastes like more cardboard." But nah, I was HUNGRY dude...and it wasn't half bad...hmm...I hope this isn't a trend. Anyhoo, I had Art History early in the morning, went to a drawing workshop...yeah, the very one my nose bled in...and I went to the library to do my perspective hw. All this, on 2 hours of sleep. Hot damn..I'm going to die young if I keep this up...and keep it up is just what I'm doin', cuz I've been doing my dingbats for Digital Illustration for the past few hours...the wierd thing is...I'm feelin' good. I feel like I'm whoopin' some major arse, I'm in the zone baby. I kno I'll be paying for it after tomorro, but its cool...I'll have some time to sleep then. Right now, I'm just listening to my tunes..downloading The O'Jays "Forever Mine"...slow, late night tunes...I'm at my most creative at these latenight sessions. I've always known I was a night person, there's no denying it. My creative G-spot if u will...I'm feelin' the old school jams tonite...gonna break out some Sam Cooke.
Wednesday, September 27, 2000Not more than 20 minutes ago, I decided to myself, "yes"...I am very interested in moving. I'm sitting here doing my homework when I realized, I haven't eaten my greens for the day..So I get up to go into the kitchen to get my bag of baby carrots. Halfway down the hallway I smelled gas. Not a big surprise, the pilot light to the stove probably just went out. So I turn on the light to the kitchen and I hear a scuffling noise comming from the stove. A split second later, THE BIGGEST F*CKING RAT I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE comes scurrying across the kitchen floor from one end to the other, bumps into the cornering below the kitchen sink, and dissapears in some unseen hole. At this point, I turn right around, go back into my room, and lock the door. The gas problem? Let my mystery roomates deal with that...Man, I was starting to just get used to things here. The unsafe neighborhood? Aww, well, it wasn't that bad. Talking to Alvin the other day, "Oh you live there? We saw a guy get shot over there.." Oh, thats not cool...but, I can deal. The shower curtain...which just so happens to be a WINDOW curtain...well, if you pull it just right, it doesn't let any water out. The tub that wouldn't drain, well, a little draino and its cool. The lack of locks on the doors? I figure, if someone wants in to this house, they'll get in either way. The occassional cockroach? Well, I realize that if I see one, there's bound to be 20 brother's and sister's somewhere in the house...but so far, I haven't seen more than 5. Yep, this place was starting to grow on me. It was...its kinda like a loose tooth. At first, you're thinking, "aww man"...then you start playing with it via your tongue, pushing it back and forth..and pretty soon, its your number one form of entertainment during class.
Tuesday, September 26, 2000Man...what a pain in the ass...a pain...in the ass...an..."ass migrane" as Jeremy coined the phrase. heh..I like that...I do. Anywayz, I have mucho things on my mind...things I can deal with...homework for classes, all this jazz...and fate decides to attack me at my lifeline...my weak point...the unprotected "soft spot" of my chain of strength...severing the very umbilical cord of nourishment...my FREAKIN' RICE COOKER BROKE DOWN! Man..I just can't believe this...the dumb luck. I DEPEND on my baby...I can't do without it...rice..the very life ebbing through my body. I'm ready to scream bloody sabatoge! It was working but two days ago...and for some unknown reason...it stops. I told the other guys they could use it if they want, so jelously couldn't have been a motive. Was it just demonic malicious intent on the part of my housemates? Was it a conspiracy of which the nation has never seen or known? Was it...Powdered Toast Man? OR...was it simply that my little rice cooker steamed its last serving of rice just 2 days before...*sigh*. I'm gonna miss it.
Monday, September 25, 2000I'm loving this Next Bus service for the muni...right now I'm blogging while staring at the java applet with all the metro muni cars moving around a map of San Francisco like little ants moving in an ant farm. I love it! Oooh...according to this map, a car should be passing me right about........now! *house shakes, car goes by* Yay! this is dope...dope dope. Now I don't have to stand my ass out there on the corner forever like a schmoe=) I'm cool...I have internet access. I heard this service is just free for a trial time, and they might *gasp* start charging for it. What will I do? I just discovered it, and now they're gonna take it away from me....DAMN THEIR GOOD BUSINESS SENSE!
Quiet nights...mellow tunes on the playlist...*peeking outside*...no ones stirring out there...street light in front of the corner liquor store is glowing faintly, casting its yellow glow on everything...I'm feeling a bit bleh...but, hmm...its not a completely bad kind of bleh. Can nostalgia be categorized as "bleh"? Well...I suppose you can say I'm a little homesick, with a little of that nostalgia mixed in for good measure. The past year and a half have been a real rollercoaster for me...family, dating, relationships(or should I say relationship?), friends...*sigh* San Diego nights were beautiful...the way the air smelled, chilly but somehow different than up here. Especially when the weekends rolled around...close friends only blocks away. And family...mom always nagging me to eat something she cooked instead of "those hamburgers"...asking "how was your day ma?" A strange familiarity in the vibe that said "home". All the people I've met in my many years in SD, are all still there...up here, there's no chance of running into any of them at the mall, or grocery store...or getting a call one day from a friend I haven't heard from in so long. Up here, its a brand new start...no familiar faces from back in the day. Why am I like this? Well, I think its only natural...I've been through it twice before, and it does get better each time...I'm a different person now than I was back then...stronger, wiser. And things have never been so good up here for me. My own place, classes and professors I'm enjoying. I'm attacking school with a newfound fervor that wasn't there in the past. I'm thinking ahead...I'm meeting new people everyday...I"m smiling...I'm...happy......and all those people I love and care for, even if I don't get to speak with some of them as frequently as I'd like, they're still with me...they're still there. So things...they couldn't be much better.
Sunday, September 24, 2000Welp, I just got home. And I had some things to take care of today...guess a few of them will have to wait till tomorro. Went out yesterday after class to my friends house...a few of us got together over there and were gonna catch a movie, but..somebody tell me WHEN the HEEZY did movie ticket prices become 9 bux? Blimey! So, we opted for some "poor man's fun". Went to eat pho on Irving, and rented "Play It To the Bone"...pretty funny movie, but man were asian people in that film...and if you kno me at all, you'll kno that I think asian folks (fellaz in particular) get shafted when it comes to film and TVs...in terms of roles and just the number of them. Anyone who's seen the movie tell me if you think I'm just being overly sensitive. But it WAS an entertaining movie...strange, but this is exactly the type of movie I would've never seen or heard from again when it left the theatres. I wouldn't go rent it, or ask about it...and I wouldn't have seen it at all if my friend didn't persist on it.
