Ding-dong, this site is dead. My web presense is now on the ucr servers at http://student.ucr.edu/~dtrud001/. What will I do with this webspace? Who cares, tripod sucks.

I will no longer post personal remarks here. I will now blog at http://jade42.blogspot.com. I will continue to add to the other parts of this site in the future.

Comic-con was such great fun. Only during the ride home do you feel the weight of a five-day con on you. I saw cosplayers, babes, idols and fanboys. I'll never wash these eyes again.

For some time I've been playing this game called Kings of Chaos over the internet. It's a slow turn-based war game that serves as a nice distraction from time to time. In order to increase my strength in the game I need people to click on this link: http://www.kingsofchaos.com/page.php?id=394478. Every person who does so can do it every twenty-four hours. Click, share, keep clicking it.

I got nothin'

I have two important things the relate:

1- Celine Dion's new Vegas show sucks the big one.

2- Freelancer is the game I have always wanted to play. I only have the demo, but it already owns me none the less.

3- I now have execellent karma on Slashdot. All my posts now start off with an automatic score of two.

Oh what days, what days. Let's take them one bit at a time. So now we're at war. Here it is, can't stop it now. I like it, I think it's good. End of discussion for now. On to some funny stories.

Last night as I roamed outside of my room to gather people for dinner I heard an odd noise as I passed someone's room in another hallway. At first, I thought it was music however, I quickly realized what was gracing my ears. It's too bad I'm just typing this or I could better describe the rather loud moaning sounds emanating from behind the door. *insert sound here* That's right, I'll say it plainly, those were the sounds of sweet sweet lovin'. Now, this didn't bother me as such. I'm an 'adult' I can handle that. What struck me off guard was just that it was the first time that I was ever personally privy to the sounds to two people having sex mere feet away from me.

And now for something completely different:

I had a final at 11:30 this morning. The funny thing is that at 10:30 my alarm went off and I didn't get up. My roommate informs me that I simply turned it off and continued to sleep. Of course I don't remember any of this. Much to my horror, I ended up waking at 12:30. But wait, I'm not done. During my frantic bike-ride to the final, I spotted some war protesters. As I passed them, I couldn't resist giving them the eh, how do you say? oh yes, bird. I don't think anybody saw me, but it's the thought that counts. Right? Now I could suppose I could go on about how the building that my final was in is really three buildings and how that confused the crap out of me, but I have to admit to myself that it is really not all that funny. The remainder of the day has been very dull and un-funny. Except perhaps when I found my bike parking spot taken. But no one gives a fuck anyway.

I can't wait for this quarter to end. Finals loom and homework demands to be done. This week I have to finish physics homework (tonight), chemistry homework, read the remainder of a novel, write a draft essay, and study for finals. What fun I shall have. It's against my better judgement but I can't help but skip back home for a bit this weekend. I really should be studying but hey, isn't that what the night before is for? And to top it all off, I haven't even registered for my classes next quarter yet. Crap, I'm lazy.

You know, I think that Frank Sinatra was the coolest man of the twentieth century. Just wanted to share that with you.

Cry havoc! and let's slip the dogs of war.

I can't help but feel sometimes that I have no idea what I'm doing. Here I am at college and I'm not quite sure why. This is what society has created as the path for advancement and so I follow it. Will it suit me, time will tell. Oh, and by the way, the writings section has undergone a makeover.

Religion is once again the hot topic at sias-jeva and it looks like I'm right in the middle. I guess that I'll have to write an article of my own now. At my writing rate, that will be in a month or so.

If you notice a change in the way the site looks, good job, there is. I tweaked the way the layout is defined in order to make it look better on non-IE browsers. I just migrated to Opera 7 and it was due time. <-- addendum (2-21-03): The articles are a bit off since I haven't gotten to re-writing them. It's a lot of copy, paste and touch-up. -->

is it real
when will I ever know

never has it been explained
never can it be

what is it to be in love
can it be defined with words

no I say
no

but let it come anyway
for I cannot live without it

It's 6:51 in the damm AM and I'm just now getting to bed. Oh I hate chemistry soooo much. I hate my professor, I hate my homework. This crap shouldn't take five hours.

Just for kicks I'm asking the people out there what CD I should buy online for myself.
So just tell me what you think that I should buy.
I was looking at Zappa, Beefheart and Gorillaz before I gave up.

In order to let me get some feedback, I've set up a guestbook on a temp basis.
<-- addendum (2-19-03): polls are closed. SBR wins -->

Here are my favourite quotes from tonight's Futurama:

Prof. - Everyone's in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put in a body of a great white shark, ~OOOOOO~, suddenly you've gone too far!

Prof. - This my universal translator. Unfortunately so far it only translates into an incomprehensible dead language.
Cubert - Hello
Universal Translator - Bonjour
Prof. - Crazy gibberish!

Bender - Well, life goes on. Except you for!

Robot 1 - Seize them!
Robot 2 - Seize them!
Robot 3 - Seize them!
Robot 4 - Get them! Uh, I mean seize them!

Prof. - I'm a spry as a hundred and forty year old.
*jumps*
Prof. - See? I only broke one ankle.

Some things transcend...

a moment without time
and seemed to go so fast
ever fleeting, ever dashing
they never seem to last

I knew not what to do
for my mind was ablaze
ever will I think of her
until my dying days

Wow, April put my e-mail up. Some things are beyond joy.

I woke up at four today, hehe.

One of the few things that motivates me to write is school and the lack of passing if I don't. So for your intellectual pleasure I have my opinion essay the I wrote for my english class. Don't be shy to report any problems that you can find. <-- addendum (2-6-03): I'm aware that it is full of typos. I'll get around to correcting them soon, give me a break, I'm frickin' dyslexic. --><-- addendum (2-8-03): Blatant errors have been fixed. The logic could use a little work, though. -->

we knew that it could happen
