In other news the evilness that is Ragnarok Online has come back. That game is too addicting, hence the evilness. I just can't stop playing it. However if I make it as one of the beta testers for FFXI or Star Wars Galaxies then RO will probably go right out the door. But then again it's Final Fantasy and Star Wars, nothing beats that.
Spiffy RO page though Sam.
Haven't blogged in a few days. Went to see X2 in the theaters the day it came out. That movie was awesom and a half. It was damn cool. Now I want to go see it again.

Well I finally get to film my short video for my tools 2 class this friday. It only took a month to get everyone to agree to get together on the same day. Then again it didn't help that David Letterman stole my first idea. I was going to do "Who Wants to Date Collin Ferrell?" because I have a friend who looks exactly like him. However DL did it fist so I had to change my idea. I'm not releasing the information on my latest idea until after it's filmed least David Letterman steal it agian. I want my originality damn it!
Yay! I finally have my car back. I'm happy about this. Cars are good I've determined, at least my car is good. Good for me. You never realize how much you miss it until it's no longer there.

Ick, we just had another major event around here. Sams toilet broke and sent 30-40 gallons of water out into her room and our living room. So we spent several hours late at night cleaning that up plus moving all of her stuff out of her room and into various other rooms. It's kind cramped in here right now but so far we're all living with it. They can't fix the carpet until Monday at the earilest so we're stuck here biding our time with living spaces that are much less livable now. So far it's just one accident after another over here.

Yeah so it's been an interesting week. I'm still not used to my school schedule. Monday/Wednesday I have class/workout/akido from 8 am to 7 pm. Then Tuesday/Thursday I have workout/akido/game from 4 pm to midnight. Friday is still up in the air. It changes every time. Currently I'm in a phase of "what the hell am I doing?" I'm free only in the evenings MW and only in the mornings TH. I don't know where I am anymore. I'm also only taking 3 classes that involve work. So I don't have much to do on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Which is why right now I'm doing this. I have no idea what else to do with my free time. Maybe I'll get some of those much needed groceries that we don't have here. I can pick up ice cream on the way too, that makes it all better.

Got to play in my first official Ultimate Frisbee game for an actual team. Well a sort of actual team, it's actually a bunch of friends who wanted to play and decided to form a team. It was fun though, we played the best team in the league and didn't do too badly. The score was only 7 to 13 (us 7 them 13). Overall it was good though, that is until it started raining. So I came back wet and cold. But I'm warm and dry now that I've taken a shower. I'm supposidly supposed to eat sushi with Meriel now but we'll see if that happens. She may be too tired and not want to wander out into the rain agian since my car is currently being repaired. Hopefully the guys at the shop covered the broken window before leaving for the weekend. Otherwise the interior of my car is in trouble. I'll cross my fingers on that one. Anyways I'm off to find out about sushi and buses that go there.

Got into a car accident yesterday. Not a good thing, the side of my call is all smashed up now. Damn SUVs. At least only one window broke, and it was the small one on the back door on the drivers side of the car. The car isn't damaged too badly, well not compared to the kind of accident I could have had. The rear drivers side door will have to be replaced as will the rear quarter-pannel. That and the window. Hopefully it won't cost more than $3000 cuz that's what the insurance will cover.

FYI, my main site landofgiven.com and my other site squirrelman.net won't be working again for a while. We changed servers and so my links from NameZero don't work. However NameZero seems to have lost most of my information so I can't log in, or even get any kind of help from them for fixing it. So basically I'm stuck until the end of 2004 without being able to touch my site. Really sucks.

Woo Hoo!!! I finally made it to 10,000 cards in my card collection. It only took forever to do. At least now that I've reached my goal I can stop buying various card collections on ebay to add to my sets.

Anyways, so I went to Disneyland for my spring break. That was fun, the best part was the fact that I got to spend some of it with my friend AJ who's going to school down there. A fact I had completely forgotten about until I was driving home from Oregon. But in the end I got to spend the latter half of a saturday and a full sunday with her. Sunday we spent in Disneyland riding all the rides and just having fun. AJ even told me about the hidden mickey's on every ride. (A fact that I never knew). She told us about the ones in the Haunten Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. Then we found the ones in the Jungle Cruze, Splash Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain. It added a whole new adventure to Disneyland. It was fun.
California Adventure was cool too. Not as cool as Disneyland, but still fun. The three best attractions are the rollercoaster California Screaming, the water rapids ride on Grizzly Bear Rock, and some other ride/movie/ish/thing called Soarin' Over California. Fortunately we had park hopper passes so we could just go to either park whenever we wanted.
Downtown Disney was interesting. Lots of stores and a few good restaurants and a spiffy make-your-own-bear place. Well spiffy if you're into that kinda thing. I'm not really, but the concept is cool. There was a Lego store in Downtown Disney that had a lego Darth Vader, Jengo Fett, and R2-D2. They also had the Empire State Building, the AT&T building, and some other one that I don't recognize. And a lifesize Giraffe. It was a cool place.
Ok well I think I'm finally done ranting about my vacation. I'm sure I'll have more to rant about later, like the crappyness of this keyboard that I'm using currently. The keys don't like to go down when pressed. I can tell it's rather old. Makes it kinda hard to type. I keep having to use backspace a lot. The other sucky thing is that the backspace button isn't what I'm used to. It's the size of one regular key instead of two and the enter key is bigger and L-shaped. So the key that is normally above the Enter key on my keyboard is now where the rest of the backspace button normally is. So I try to hit backspace and all I get is \\ really annoying.
Ok, I'm really done ranting now, I promise. At least I blogged enough to keep you busy for a few minutes. Kinda makes up for my absence, sorta, maybe, well not really, but I'd like to think so. Alright, off to class.
Well here I am, first day of classes and I have nothing to do because my last class got out early and I still have a half hour till my next one starts. So I found an empty computer lab to keep myself occupied in. Kinda creepy actually.

Anyways, currently I'm realy pissed off at Namezero. I had 2 accounts with them and for some reason suddenly they don't work anymore. The even suckier thing is that I can't transfer my domain names to anywhere else because my email address can't be established for the transfer to take place because Namezero seems to have forgotten that it owns the names. I can't even contact them to get them to fix it because you have to be signed in as a memeber to contact them and I can't sign in. There is no other way to contact them either. I have a phone number that is supposidly theirs that is attached to my receipt from my last name renewal, but that doesn't work either. It just rings forever and no one ever picks up. DAMN THEM!!! So my last resort is the snail mail address that I managed to find on the site. If this doesn't work, I'm just going to have to hope that I can hold on for another 2 years cuz that's when the names expire. Yeah, I really hate Namezero right now, and I reccomend that anyone who reads this find some other place to buy domain names from like Dotster or something. Anything but Namezero cuz they suck.
Yay, I'm done with studio. Ok so actually I was done with studio on Monday night, but I slept when I got homea and then I just kinda forgot to blog about it. Actually I've forgotten to blog for the entire week. Normaally I'd remember but I'm still busy with things. I have a structures project that is due on monday and a 4 page paper due on wednesday. Then today I'm planning on playing Ultimate followed by Feng Shui. Then on thursday I leave to go back to California where my mom is going to take me to Disneyland, yay!

Quicky entry before I have to go back to doing studio work. Ok so I've had this song that keeps getting stuck in my head, and it's been there for 5 years without me knowing what the hell it was. Every time I tried to sing or hum it for someone in hopes that they would know what it was or who it was by no one knew. Finally last night Christian was playing it in studio and I was able to discover the name of the song that has been stuck in my head for 5 years. It was "Where Do You Go?" by No Mercy. So I had to blog about that because I'm extremely happy that I now know the name of it.

OK, so I was playing Ragnarok and I came across this:
Am I missing something here? Can these people not see each other? I mean, one of them is selling a Female Thiefbug Card and the other wants to buy one. Is it the abbreviations that's throwing them off? The fact that one is abbreviated "Female TBug" and the other is "F Thief Bug" seems to be a source of misscommunication. Now, I understood perfectly, but I guess I'm just that much smarter then them. I think the best thing is that I was there when the one selling came up and opened the chat box saying they were selling one. They had to have seen that one person was buying, but for some reason in all the abbreviation confusion they completely missed the opportunity to sell their FTB Card. Their loss I guess. I can't help them cure their stupidiy, or bad eyesight for that matter, so I am content to just sit here and see how long it takes for one of them to realize that they want the same thing and actually do something about it.
