"Also, I was standing in Target today and I almost started shooting people, but then I remembered I was real." — In reference to playing to much GTA: Vice City on Thinkless.org
I used to play GTA3 all day and then when driving on the road I'd size up Ambulances and Fire Trucks. To be honest it was kind of creepy.
On a slightly related topic I had an awesome dream where I had to fight some guy and his shadow with my sword so I could get my shield back. And then the 4 of us (we umm.. had just broken out of this castle and now we snuck back in to get our things?) had to fight this cool ghost ladies shadow which was pure evil and quite nasty looking.
Definite zelda influences I can't say that I've seen any other game besides "Wind Waker" with that particular fighting style. (I don't recall wearing green though…) And the ghost lady I think I picked up from an episode of Angle I saw the other day. I've also been playing a bunch of Jedi Academy but the dream was nothing like it so I dunno.
I've got to get some sleep, pack, and then say good bye to this place.

I had a good weekend hanging out with bill and his girlfriend. (Sarah too) I had never met her before but I told him that I approve. (I do.)
The next day I spent with Rowan University. I had a bad time and I didn't even finish everything that I needed to do. So I left and I have to finish the rest by phone or internet. I was also denied a loan for next semester and had to beg the head of Mathematics to let me retake calc again (as I got a D this semester — and withdrew 2 other times as I did all my classes last year.) he never wants to see me again but he let me do it.
Work was good today. I go back tomorrow. Having some trouble finishing a lab due to that teacher that runs it but it should blow over. I hope.
I've had quite a few people tell me that I should change majors. My academic advisor, the head of the math department, my calc teacher… I've heard "Math just isn't your thing, your not good at it." and other statements.
Fuck You people.
I go back to rowan saturday. This has been one heck of a month.

I was in New York this weekend. I've got a bunch to say but I'll do it later.
For now just know that I got a new pair of shoes and that they came with a free dictionary. Gotta love New York. Oh and got to love Poky too.

One man's interesting presentation on his trip to New York
I have to say not living in New York City has made it a lot more interesting.

Sarah and I took a trip to New York a few weekends ago. She got to see my house, meet my dad, Jenny, and we took my brother Nick down back with us. I'll have photos later tonight. For now Enjoy the movie.

I watched a guy beat another man on the subway yesterday. After we pulled into the 4th ave and 9th street station on the F train the doors opened and everyone in the car heard a loud smack. A black guy was beating an older businessman with an umbrella. Everyone on the train started making a commotion. "Stop that!" some woman (who had a lot to say even after we left the station) screamed after each hit. Everyone stared at the beating and I think some people tried to push the guy away but it was hardly a wholehearted effort. Some people yelled out to stop the train. Many other people (including my self) yelled to not stop the train. The guy with the umbrella was gone and there was no need to stop everyone because of it. Someone suggested that a complaint should be filed.
How on earth would you lodge a complaint? "Excuse me officer? I'd like to lodge a complaint to that black man who beat me with an umbrella. His name? Sorry… Where did he go? Well it was 10 minutes ago… I donít know but he's not on the F-Train I just got off. Am I hurt? Well my pride is pretty damaged, but it wasn't that bad." The cops would tell you to quit pissing off strangers in the subway.
I really wish something could have been done, but what was I supposed to do chuck dry ice at him? Speaking of dry ice I got to play with a fair amount. Read on for pictures.
