argh!

so it’s been tricky, this updating weblog thingie. I usually think of ideas in the morning, on my hour long morning drive to school (it’s not the 405 that kills me, but wilshire and stupid westwood traffic and UCLA parking, believe it or not), but I don’t have my computer handy! then when I come home, I catch up on reading, catch up on the discussion board we’re supposed to post on for my soc class… and this blog just gets neglected! augh!

so here are some summaries!

THIS WEEK:
– I’ve picked up playing Grim Fandango again~!! it’s soooo much fun! it’s a lot quicker beating the game when you know all the answers to the puzzles -blushes-
– this week feels soooo short. I got confused yesterday that today was thursday. I thought yesterday was tuesday or something. geez! gimme a day off, and this is what happens!
– i’m really really sore. jer and I went running along our beach on monday. i’m really out of shape. it’s hard to walk to class!
– watched nixon last weekend. bad-ass movie.

LAST WEEK
– went home! I got to see my family! and plus, my grandparents are visiting my family for a couple of months, so I get to see them too!!! yay! I haven’t seen them in six years! my aunt was also in town for the week too! but only a week. :( I had to see her off.
– the weekend before last was kinda sucky… basically spent it at the airport, going through security. auuuuuuuugh.

… and that’s all I can remember. -snaps fingers- so HEY. do you need to email me? my pearlscript@hotmail account is dead now… it was evil, evil! so if you need to reach me, email me here.

bad blogger! bad! bad!

sorry kids, that last update took about three days to finally get up. I’m been having issues with blogger :(.

I’m starting to get interested in another kind of blogging program called “Movable Type.” A couple of my friends have gotten on it and have said positive things about it! it also looks quite spiffy. I think I may make a jump…

I got a computer upgrade!

so jer and I have lately been playing a lot of warcraft. my computer can baaarely handle it. so jer finally threw his arms up, said “aaaah!!” and decided to get me an upgrade~!!!

was:
PIII 500
128 ram
4x sony cd burner (blegh!)
ati radeon 32 meg ddr
motherboard running at AGP 1

MY MACHINE IS NOW FLYING!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can have more than 10 chars on my screen and not have my system slow!! I can have my sorceresses cast a spell to turn things into sheep and not worry that I’m casting it on my own guys! woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve had waay too much fun with warcraft =) if you ever want to play, lemme know! :D

music music music! concert update!!

ok, ok, ok. my blog has gotten waaay way way too political. so here’s a personal update.

currently spinning: weezer – maladroit
song of the month: weezer – keep fishin’
GO SEE THE MUSIC VIDEO!! You can check it out at weezer.com.

went to see them at verizon wireless in irvine a couple weeks ago. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!! weezer, geek band of the decade, does pyro at their live shows. completely rocked the house. only complaint was that the audience was full of weezer newbies who didn’t know songs off pinkerton… or even the blue album!! -sob!- Rivers led the band in a gorgeous version of “Only in Dreams” and followed it up with “Surf Wax America”… and people didn’t even get it. :(

jer, julie, and I also got to catch Area2 at Verizon Wireless. gosh, I hate that place, but don’t get me started! (stupid clear channel!) at any rate, we got there late because traffic on the 405 that day was completely awful… it took us more than an hour to actually get to Irvine, and we’re only maybe 40 minutes from it from RB. -throws arms up in the air- but what we saw once we were there was pretty bad-ass. Tiesto ROCKED, Bowie was amazing… completely charming, and Moby was, though not as electric as he was at AreaOne, still immensely fun to watch.

upcoming: coldplay in vegas. VEGAS BABY, VEGAS!
