What is the point of making students write 20 page papers? I really don't understand it, why make them do so much. All that ends up happening is that students have to BS about 10 pages and write another 10 pages of information. Somehow it gets done, because I had to do that freshmen year with writing 102 which was retarded. I had taken a college level writing course in High school but nooo, stony brook had to be difficult as an institution and dick me over, sooo i had to take writing 102. And now going into senior year I wish that I would be sitting back in Writing 102. -.-

Do do you have a first aid kit handy??

Sooo Im gonna get this tattoo over the summer. No one likes my idea except for my friend, Jessica, and that's because she's a crazy cat lady, but I like it and thats all that matters. At first, I was thinking of getting a lotus, and thats pretty and everything but so overdone. Being original is so much better. Then it's kinda a thing of where should I get it, how big should it be. A lot of variables go into it! Then, you have to think about different colors, and how they have different meanings (pink=love, white=wealth, blah blah blah). Plus it'll be expensive, because, what isn't nowadays, and I don't have that much money. I don't want to go to South Carolina over the summer, it's gonna be so boring. Kimberly's coming with me, but still..she's a little nuts, so that can't be a good influence on me.

aiyaa

hopefully tomorrow i'll be able to get my car out with out any complications, but I highly doubt that. Then I gotta go find a damn fix-a-flat so I can fix my tire! And not only that but then I get to have fun painting a wall I wrote on with pencil. I knew what i was doing, I just didn't expect pencil not to erase off of a wall. But look at that, you learn something new everyday right? Ugh..I gotta get started on this journal deal, which has to be 16 pages. Sigh......
what?

Today was a total wast of my time. I went for the 2nd time to get my car out of the impound which is on campus and not even a mile away, so they go and charge me 75$ for towing it about 10 feet. SO i get there and of course they're taking their sweet ass time, then finally we get to the "impound" at south p lot and they take about another 20 min to meet me there. Not only is my trunk wide open but now i have a flat tire too, so when i ask for my keys they give me a dumbfound look, those idiots had misplaced my key. fucking idiots.
Finals
Well here it is again, yet another week of finals almost flashing by. I don't really have many to worry n stress about just a 16 page paper and couple of blogs. I can't believe next year i'm going to be a senior. Man, time really does fly by, I can't belive this, I mean what am I supposed to do next, well I do plan on going to grad school, but then after that what????

humanaaa haaaa

Windows movie maker is the biggest piece of shit program in the world, what in the hell were the programmers at microsoft thinking when they decided to ok this program in the windows xp operating system. Every damn 5-10 minutes this damn program would freeze up my computer and just stop working. Not only that, you can't even use .avi files!! It'll only work if you convert it to either .wmv or .mpeg. So that alone is a big pain in the ass. Apple's Imovie program is another reason why Apple is ahead of microsoft in the media arts such as video editing and music creation/editing. I haven't even started experimenting with windowns movie maker on vista, but from what i've seen with windows xp movie maker I don't even want to try.
Strawberry Mango and French Toast

Recently my lovely girlfriend purchased a new blender that was on sale at walgreen's for $19. I gotta say that it's not bad, because right now i'm eating a delicious strawberry mango smoothie!!! It's soo goood! I think a small campus business could definitely be started with prices ranging from 2.50-5.00 dollars. AAAnnndd thennnnnn we can serve cinnamon raisin french toast for a price of about 4.00. Now I think that's a pretty damn good deal, and it beats the shit ouf of the food and prices on campus. This smoothie and french toast is the only thing keeping me from going crazy. =)
My car my curse

Well yet again i've been pulled over by the police, well i gotta say, fuck the police. For the first time ever the excuse for pulling me over was because my muffler was too loud. And when he asked if I had cocaine or any drugs, it wasn't because I was a minority, it was just because they ask that to everyone right??? Riigghht. Damn pigs, the first thing they go for is my McDonald's. heh And of course there has to be about 7 cop cars and about 11 cops to apprehend me for a loud muffler and a set of brass knuckles, which is pretty bad I guess, but I still think a knife or a gun is much worse. The night went through the morning with 5 tickets and a great walk back in the rain, but atleast I got to eat my food eventually. And my poor silvia is even serving time in the impound. ugh...FUCK THE POLICE =)

Once Upon a Drift

Once upon a drift there were many blurs and vivid slides of memories that slide through my mind. You gotta start somewhere right? How about in a Land Rover on a rainy day? No, not a smart idea at all, especially when you end up drifting on the side of your car. =) And then came the day I found the prized Jewel. A beautiful Nissan 240sx alone and sad. Also known in drift country(Japan) as a Nissan Silvia S14 Zenki. My dreams had come true, and my wallet became indefinitely dry after months of work. And so the tires burned day and night, and one day I will become the DRIFT KING!!!!

Interwebs
How the internet has changed the way kids and people all around the world communicate. During my generation it was all about the xanga and myspace. At this time our virtual spaces were in a way limited. They were mainly limited because of the dreaded 56k where loading a web page would take minutes. But still there were millinos of people online blogging and communicating their thoughts. Now it seems that there is high speed interenet and wireless internet everywhere. The prices have dropped and have become very affordable. But now the way to communicate and blog is through facebook and now i've seen more video blogs. The new age is youtube which has now been eaten up by google. What will be the new social media source in the next few years??
summa time...1!!

Summer jobs:
Summer internships are so hard to find these days. I applied very early and many companies have gotten back to me only to tell me that they can't pay me. With in the last few years finding marketing internships have been pretty reasonable and easy. This year many places call me back and have not been able to hire interns because of the weak economy. I want to do something different, I want to do something new, something that can stand out and put a new vision to the world. Where will I be able to find this kind of position. I live in New York City, it can't be that hard right?
Food at stony

Campus Food:
Why is it that stony brook charges us so much food for our meal plans and they end up taking about 400 dollars from our tuition. Where does this money go, I would really like to know. Not only that, but the quality of food that we get here is in my opinion pretty horrendous. And what is up with the prices?@!!! They charge like 1.50 for a bottle of water! It's bad enought that housing is so expensive for these mediocre and old dorms that we get, but now they have to overcharge for terrible food that has caused be to get food poisoning once. And yet the quality of my classes and instructors has not increased in the past 3 years. I think something is definitely going on within the higher ups.
College????
College Education:
These days I feel that a college education is not only a gamble but a neccesity. There's so much competition that a bachelor's degree is today's new high shcool diploma. So many more people are going to college now and getting degrees that a Master's degree is more prominent now. Even with my Bachelor's degree, there is no guarantee that i'll be getting a job or a career, for right now i'm just building up a little debt in hopes that this education will secure my future, but I feel that it won't. I feel that I need to be more involved in the outside world than in the classroom.
Toshibbaaaa

Need a new Toshiba:
Even though this computer i've been using still works fine but it's a getting a little slow. I've had this Toshiba laptop since my junior year in high school and i'm about to end my junior year in college so that actually says a lot about the quality of their products. The only thing i had to replace was the AC adapter, which is I believe amazing. I think if I just add one more 512mb ram card my computer will be fine. It's so surprising how much prices in technology drops over a couple of months period and amazing how fast technology continues to grow and evolve. Hopefully i'll be able to get a new laptop over the summer along with an HD tv! =)
Today!
Today is the Day!
Not only do I have class today and am totally unprepared but I have my pageant today!!! I still don't know what i'm doing about my creative letter wear!! Well I do know what i'm goin to do, I only have one option and that option is to become the best Greek batman that anyone has ever seen. Also my talent is going to be the best. I just hope I don't get a million splinters from thes crappy peices of wood. I would've gotten wood form Lowe's but that is too expensive, plus i'm only going to be breakign it with my elbows and legs anyways. I also bought some nice Little mermaid arm floats and a nice big pink floatie! Today is the day!!!
Creative Letter Wear
What the hell am I supposed to do for Creative letter wear? Creative letter wear is a category where I have to creatively show off my letters while trying to stay in theme. This year the theme is cartoons. I've been thinking of doing Brock, but the problem is I can't find a damn green vest, I mean who the hell wears a green vest?!! I was thinking about Quail man from Doug but i'm not sure how many people will actually notice that. My last resort is batman, which i don't wanna spend a lot of money on. But it's atleast only seven dollars at party city. The pageant is only ohhh...2 days away!! I think i'll end up being a cheap but badass Pi Delta Psi batman with flips and boomerangs and everything!! Here come the King!
Greek Week
We are about to start what is called Greek Week. This is hosted by the IFSC council for one week. We teamed up with Alpha Sigma Alpha this year as our partner. There are so many events that are going to be going on. Wednesday is going to be my big day! It's the Greek Week Pageant! I will be representing my fraternity on four categories: Creative Letter Wear, Swim Wear, Talent, and Formal Wear along with a Question and Answer section. I've been working so much towards this and hopefully I can grab the crown and become the IFSC king!!!

blah bliddy blah
A movie about the end of the world or a movie that is sent to yourself from the past into the future. I always wanted to make a little capsule of questions to ask myself from the past. The idea of my mind at the time talking to a more mature and perhaps very different mind is very interesting. Where do the changes in attitude and being happen? Is it one event or a chain of events that causes a person to change the way they are? Is it for the better or the worse? Is this how "Adults" become adults? What defines that word? I hope that as an adult I still have an open mind and the charisma and creativeness of myself now. That's something that I don't want to lose and that I believe is a crucial part of myself and helps define who I am.
Rain

I know it's spring but all of this rain is getting a little ridiculous. I have been planning a Candle light memorial for vincent chin for about 2 months and it's supposed to Thunderstorm the day of my event which was already held back once, i swear if this happens then some higher power has put a curse on me or the soul of Vincent Chin. Finals are coming up and there's still so much to do, so many presentations and papers to do, what is the point of all of these?? Aren't there better ways to teach and educate, to involve and guide? I can't wait for the good 'ol summer time.
