I want to recall a little event that occurred yesterday as I have realized that I forgot to mention it in the previous post. Lego Wars! The little event wasn't actually a war, I'd call it more of a social gathering.
I want to say, that I was kind of worried at first as I was not expecting the girls to be enthusiastic about the gathering. I didn't even tell them exactly what I planned to do with them. I just said something like "So.... tomorrow at uh... 7pm, you guys wanna hang out at my house?"
Sam had a little setback, but Marlee and Evie managed to be at our meeting place on time. I was a little late, though, as I wanted to eat beforehand so that my random hunger moments wouldn't disturb our play time. When I got there, we had a little conversation and blah blah blah (random laughter and all that stuff). Then we decided to finally go to my house, but to our luck, the rain came and poured hard. Marlee and Evie didn't have a problem as they both had sweaters, but me. Oh me. I only had a T-shirt (and shorts) on. Goddess dammit. Oh well, we made our way home and took that little bitch (rain) on like bad asses.
When we came to my house and into my room, their purpose became obvious as they saw all of the scattered Lego bricks on my bedroom floor. "So yeah, let's play with Lego!" I don't know why, but I think I came off as being a creeper as I immediately started up my ustream and set up my laptop to do some audio recording. To my dismay, the stupid thing didn't want to work. I kept fidgeting with the tool trying to get it to work, but failed in the end. So my plans of doing a podcast audio recording failed miserably. Phoooey.
All in all, we had fun playing with Lego. Sam came an hour late, but the group and I actually upheld a meaningful conversation just like I wanted to (too bad I couldn't record it). I really liked their creations. Even the two that were not finished (Don't give up guys). After our little attempts to create stuff out of Lego bricks, I realized that people do in fact have slightly different perceptions of this world. The images we create reflect the person we really are. Some of us do need a little more time to get this image out of our heads, but those ideas can be equally as good, if not better than others. You never know until you finish.

Talking dirty (61/90)
Watch it. You'll never see this coming. You'll never believe it. You'll never comprehend it. OH MY GODDESS!! It's coming!!! Are you ready!? AHH!!! I can't keep it bottled inside any longer!!! FFFFFFFF!!
It's just another blog post. Ha, you thought I was going to share some awesome, didn't you? Or maybe a deep dark secret.. No? You have already learned to expect nothing awesome from me? D'awwww. You're so sweet.
Okay, let me get down to business. Dirty dirty business. The type where you shouldn't bring your kids to. Or your wife. Or your grandma. Heck, you shouldn't be here either.
So, I was getting my haircut today and Jackie was kind enough to volunteer. Do you see where this is going? Well, yer wrong. Let me finish. Gah. Just thinking about it just sickens me. During the process of cutting my hair, she made this comment. She told me I was hairy. Given the context, you'd think this comment was appropriate. But I made the mistake of saying, "yeah, check out my chest hair" (I was getting a haircut and hair was all over me). Well, apparently, Jackie took this the wrong way (or a way that I did not intent her to take). She started talking about how she likes hairy guys and then said something about how she (liked?) her boyfriends hairy butt. Ewww... Oh wait, I think I just gagged or something. Yuck. So yeah, disgusting. Way to go Jackie. Way to keep this horrifying image of your boyfriend's monsterously bushy buttocks.
In any case, you should definitely check out this link http://is.gd/bH0pW
You'll thank me later ;)

Something you don't care about (60/90)
Alright. I thought I'd never get through this week. My head has been hurting all day. I should have probably gone to bed early today, but I couldn't help it. My brother was playing TF2 and I had things to discuss with someone.
So, I'm trying to get people to buy the Left 4 Dead 2 - four pack that's supposed to be on sale this weekend. You should too! It's only $60 for 4 copies of the game which comes out to $15 per game. Who wouldn't want that?
Hmm.. oh yeah, if you read this and want to hang out tomorrow (Saturday) at my place, please give me a call at around 6pm. A little heads up tho, I don't have food. I haven't gotten around to buying groceries this week. But, I'll probably get something special if enough people show up.
I know some of these posts have been really short, but let's face it, I am in dire need of sleep. I've slept an average of 3-4 hours everyday this week. Naps included. So yeah. Sleep. I need as much as I can get right now.

Must. Sleep. (59/90)
Oh man, I've stayed up too late. I can feel my thoughts slowing down and becoming less concentrated. I'm debating whether or not I should skip my only class tomorrow considering that I haven't gotten enough sleep everyday this week. I still won't be able to meet the 6-8 ideal hours of sleep, but it's better than nothing. Or maybe I should get this paper done and sleep early tomorrow. I don't know, maybe I'll toss a coin or something....

What do you think the title for this post should be? (58/90)
Today was somewhat interesting. One of my classes had a very interesting conversation, a took a long needed nap, I got to see the awesomeness that was David Choi, and got a cool new T-shirt.
Okay, let me start off with the discussion from our Social Media class. I'm kinda blurry on the details considering that I'm horrible at remembering things and that I was really tired when I attended that class. We basically discussed about how media is affecting our culture and how the internet is allowing us to gain so much information that it may become too much for people to handle. The media has become such a big part of entertainment. What's happening is that people are starting to participate even more in the media to the point where you aren't aware who is an amateur and who is not. Fame through the internet can now be achieved because you are allowed to publicize your work online. Also, this participatory culture has led for more content to be published on the web which leads us to the problem of how are we going to find enough time to go through all of this data? How will we be able to tell what's real and what's fake?
And what is this upgrade to the internet going to do to our web browsing experience? I left class with more questions than answers, it seems.
Moving on to David Choi. David Choi is an Asian American musician and he happened to be part of AASA's (Asian American Student Association) week of events. David Choi came all the way from California to do this set so we were all excited. I really enjoyed his music. Not gonna go too much into detail. He mostly sung love songs. His work is definitely worth checking out, though. Yes. Go to youtube and type "David Choi" in the search bar. Do it right now, you can come back after you've seen a video or two..... I can wait.... Go on..... Seriously, I'm not going anywhere. Fine have it your way.
Well anyways, he was awesome and a very nice person. I really liked how he took the time to answer all of our questions. He made us take little pieces of paper and write down any question that you wanted him to answer. And you know what he did? He answered every single one of them. That's how awesome he is. Afterwards, we invited him to have dinner with us at Scotty's. I've never eaten there, but after today, I really want to go back there again sometime. It's like Chili's only next to campus :)
Sooooo.... David Choi and Wong Fu. Youtube. Go!!!!

What's really going on? (56/90)
So here I am, watching yet some more people play a video game that I do not have time for. I know video games distract me too much when I'm doing homework, but at least it's better than me sitting in the library trying to stay awake as I try to focus on my homework.
When I think about it, I start to realize that many of my friends have become bad influences for me. I'm not trying to say that they are bad friends, what I want to say is that I don't want their bad habits rubbing off on me. I always try to do my best to see the best in them and I know that they have taught me a few things here and there. But every once in a while, I start to think that my friends are dragging me down. Sometimes, I wish they wouldn't try to keep me away from my goals in life. Or maybe It's my fault. Maybe I've created an expectation from them that causes them to think that I would rather procrastinate on my homework or even pass on doing it. Heck, maybe I'm just "wrong." Wrong in every way possible and my interpretation of life is so skewed that I'm just having a rough time trying to conform to a right way of living life.
Am I the one who is a bad influence on them? I always try to maintain a positive attitude with my friends and I know that some of them do respect me, at least when I'm present. But what do they say when I'm not there? Are they talking behind my back cracking jokes and making me look like a fool? Do they see me as a horrible human being corrupted by my own self indulgence? Sometimes I wonder....
