Playing Dragon Age: It was embarrassing to walk into a Gamestop to get it. It represents everything that's wrong with the gaming industry, and it always reminds me of just how many clueless newbs are out there. After asking every other guy in line for DA:O if they wanted a strategy guide after selling it to them... on a console, I get up there, the ONLY guy in line who wanted it on PC, and he didn't say a word to me.  He either respected my 1337ness or had drawn his line in the sand as a console newb many eons ago.

Halloween...

Brown-leaved vertigo, where skeletal life is known, I remember Halloween, dead cats hanging from poles, little dead are out in droves, I remember Halloween, this day, anything goes.

25th Birthday!

So far, so good.  I applied for News Editor of the Daily Emerald yesterday.  Life's been busy and this week and last were mid-terms.  I'm very nervous about the job, but I'm also very chill.  The more I go over the interview in my head, the more I love things I said, and the more I berate myself and say "Dude, that was just stupid..."
My column for this week can be found here.  It's about Google's new Android OS.
Facebook is apparently going to start memorializing Facebook pages of the dead.  Creepy and just in time for halloween.
Every time I come to Xanga I'm reminded of how barren and cleaned out it is...it had it's day in the sun, like Geocities or Yahoo! chat or Yahoo! Clubs...and as much as I wish it were still very popular, the fact is, anything I write on Facebook gets seen by about 100 people...anything I write here, I'm pretty sure only my dad reads, and he's the only one I update this for, so...haha.
I've been toying with the idea of Twitter...so I can actually get in on a social networking site before it starts dying while it still has that insane-o popular rush.
Girlfriend's being a pain in the ass, I got up early today to some Russian homework and instead just read thew news and Facebooked. 
I learned what On Demand was yesterday and caught up on four episodes of NCIS without commercials!  Which was awesome!  Then I hopped on back to my DVR and watched two episodes of CSI: NY before I passed out.
I should leave for school in like 10 minutes.

Well...

Settling in is going okay.  I'm finding myself a little unnerved by some things, but I suppose that's to be expected.  The most important thing is that I'm doing well in school.  I can't believe how many friends I've made.  I'm also fitting into my columnist role with the Emerald more and more every time I submit a story. :p

Kind of the worst night in a long time...I went the whole night partying, eating, and drinking without getting a drop on my favorite suit...then while driving home I poured a can of pepsi all over the seat where it went straight to my ass. Couple th...at with the fact that the transmission in my truck went out and I had to drive from Albany to Springfield without first of second gears...
