I just got back from dinner with Y. I left W's digital camera in her car last time we were out, and we hooked up to make the exchange and grab dinner. I actually took a gander around the computer lab and it was nearly completely empty, save for exactly 6 people (we counted). I dissuaded her from going back later that night to work, because "it would be sad to be there with 6 people man...besides, its Saturday, there'll be plenty of time to go to the lab later in the semester."
We went to Sushi Boat Restaurant on Geary...they're sprinkled around town, but this one was a little hole in the wall. We just talked over dinner and two flasks of sake. Kinda reminded me of dinners with A. I think we were there for like 3 and a half hours just conversing. I had a good time.
Right now I'm just listening to some Japanese hip hop and downloading new software for my mp3 player...it doesn't seem to want to communicate with my computer at the moment.

Its 4:48 in the morning on this Friday night(those who know me know that for me, the day doesn't end until I go to sleep) and I'm just sitting in front of the glowing computer screen with the lights out, and some mellow tunes flowing. *peek head out open window* Its still dark out there...with that crisp cold that seems to go right to the bone. All is quiet...
I was surfing around on some of the old blogs I keep up on from time to time and with quite a few of them, loneliness was a running theme...whether away at school, or the feeling that there's no one to confide in. I think its pretty brave to admit. I guess its like revealing a weakness about yourself. I know we've all felt it here and again...or maybe for long periods in life. I think it also comes with growing up and realizing that people move in and out of your life...some stay around and close, some move on. Maybe even some that you thought would be around forever, aren't. Just enjoy the time you have and it will always work out in your favor. At least it helps me to understand it this way. I'm on my way to a sermon, so I'm gonna stop.=) But I know things will be good, as long as you keep putting out those positive vibes.
The two classes I've had so far have been, well, underwhelming. I hate to say it, but they haven't really inspired me yet. I still have visual effects 1, Pixar and business law to look forward to. Honestly though, the main thing I'm looking for is a light workload in most of my classes so I can really work on my demo reel this final year. That comes first now that I'm on the final leg of my college career.
I wonder how I could ever manage to be married someday. I think I enjoy my time alone far too much. Its a ying and yang thing...being around people and being alone. When I go out with friends, I'd say I'm a talkative guy, and I contribute in that sense...but when I'm denied my "alone time", I devolve into a reclusive, quiet, anti-social trow. So I can't imagine coming home from school/work to the same person everyday, that LIVES where I live. Hmmm...just another thing that I'll just have to wait and see.
I'm going to bed...night.

Well, I start school tomorrow...another semester's beginning. I'm pretty sure I'm ready to go back. I'm happy with the way I spent the summer...it was productive, yet relaxing.
I got a new pair shoes...some really nice Nike running shoes. So comfortable, and light! More expensive than any pair of shoes I've ever owned previously...twice over. But, they're nice. I wore them jogging the night I got them, and it became apparent to me...these are some fucking eye catching sneakers. I mean, have you ever seen anyone who's teeth are just too white? And whenever they smile, its like a big bright spotlight is shining on those pearly white chiklet teeth? Thats how I felt jogging to W's house...like there were two bright beacons of light attatched to each foot. This is how people get killed for their shoes man! *suspicious glance over shoulder* Its like everything about the shoe is made to catch attention. I could've sworn there are reflectors at each of it's four corners. I almost can't wait till they get a little scuffed up.....okay, I didn't mean that=)
