I haven't updated in who knows how long but this is not a real post either. I just found this video online. If you though it was impressive that someone was able to beat Super Mario 3 in 12 minutes, you'll find this amazing. This guy actually beats Super Mario 64 in around 16 minutes. I was really impressed. Granted he uses a lot of cheap moves and takes advantage of all the glitches he can, but still it's impressive.

Here's the link:

Just an update

So, I figured I'd update since I haven't since who knows when.

This semester looks promising.. and by that I mean fairly easy. I have a busy schedule but that is alleviated by the fact that the classes should be easy. Here's a rundown of what i'm taking:

Japanese - Easy like last semester and just as fun. I still think my little Japanese teacher is awesome though she should stop attacking us...
Mythology - should be good. It seems like its going to be an interesting class. We get to read mythological tales and watch movies such as Clash of the Titans and O' Brother Where Art thou. And I believe my teacher's a pothead, which would just be fun.
Genetics - Meh not really too interested in the class, but I didn't have to buy a book and that teacher seems fun. Plus no homework.
Calculus 2 - Should be fairly easy as I get math pretty quickly. The only problem is the teacher has a really weird accent. Once again no homework.
And finally  Systems Analysis - My one comp class of the semester. I haven't been to that class yet, but it seems like an interesting subject so we'll see.

Other than that I have work and frisbee. Frisbee is starting off well already.. Three practices that I can usually make each week which will be awesome and good exercise. No worries though, I will eat a lot so that I remain the fat kid.

Work today sucked because people do not know how to follow simple instructions in order to get their internet set up. No lie i talked to like 35 people in 3 hours today trying to get them to fix their internet or reset a password. I say boo people.

Anyway, that's all I got for now. I think it's long enough to go back into weblog hibernatino for another few months. Til then, ja ne!

Oh... and Cyndi does not answer her phone... that is a lie. Of all the times I called, she missed it twice. granted each of those times I had called her when she had no way to answer as I had her phone, but that is beside the point. She has only answered it like 5 times in a row, tops. Do not believe her.

I haven't posted in awhile and this will be no exception. I mean this won't be a real post. Just  wanted to show all of you something that I found interesting. John, I  think  you'll like it the  most, runner up being Cyndi, but seeing as how  she's in Africa without internet,  John doesn't have any competition.

Yes, that's right someone is working on all ascii character rendition of Star Wars; Episode IV. I haven't watched it all the way through, but what I saw was pretty good... took them way too much time, but I guess that's what happens when you have no life, but it was pretty good.

Hello all.

 

I figured I should update now while I was thinking about it, and before I get yelled at again from people back home about how they don’t know what’s going on. So here goes:

 

So I moved into our apartment. It took some getting used to but now I really like it. Tim is finally getting all his stuff put away so it’s not cluttering up our unused space in the front room (j/k Tim, take as long as you want). You should all come down and visit at some point, it’ll be fun.

 

This weekend was pretty fun. We went to the bar Sunday night for Tim’s birthday and I found a new drink that I really like called Black and Blue, it’s a mix of Guinness and Blue Moon and is very tasty.

 

So I started my new job last week and it’s pretty awesome. I get my own cubicle which is fun, but I need some ideas of stuff to put in it cause it is quite bare right now.

I work from 8:00 til about 4:15, weird time to end I know, but meh whatever. It’s better than Dunkin.

I get to help them switch all their E-mail accounts for about 40 companies from one server to another. That’s probably somewhere along the lines of about 5000 email boxes or so. Not as difficult as it sounds, tedious, but not difficult.

My work day pretty much consists of me sitting in front of my computer waiting for people to call me so that I can help them with their E-mail problems while I create new email accounts on the new server and make sure that they work properly. Seriously, it’s really easy. Example: Two days ago I was done with the bulk of my work for the day by 9:30…and I usually take about 15 minutes in the morning to get coffee and get settled before I actually start working. There are a few other things that I do there, but I really don’t understand them well so I won’t even try to explain them.

 

 (Edit: ) I almost forgot the best part. So right in the area that I work, there is a table. this table is constantly filled with random snacks such as Triscits or chips or fruit or oreos, jelly beans E.L.Fudge cookies... it's great, I just kind of stock up, go back to my cubicle, work a little, eat a little, and repeat.

 

All in all, things are going well. I’ll be home for the weekend so we had all better do something fun (those of you that are home at least) ::shaking fist:: I’ll try to update as interesting things happen, but I make no promises (about me posting or about interesting things happening)

 

Later

 

P.S. For anyone that doesn’t know, I have a new job. It is at a company called GROWMARK (I figured I should add this because I got yelled at my people for not telling them… jerks j/k)

 

P.P.S. I looking for ideas for small applications to put into my xanga site such as small games or a convo box or something. If you have any ideas, let me know. thanx
