Expo's are great.

So I went to the national Anime Festival Expo, and Diabetes Expo at the Javits Center, and stuff was crazy.

I didn't really pay much attention to the Anime Festival, but I did explore and I saw some crazy stuff. I didn't take any pictures, well, because I don't have a camera, but rest assured and take my word for it, it was crazy and very colorful and Japanese. Go to google.com and just type in anime festival 2008, and you'll probably see some crazy stuff.

I saw some crazy dresses from many anime's in all types of genre's. There were some very awesome costumes, and there were some who just didn't wear practically anything. There was actually a couple of girls who just came in with only a bra and panties on, with make-up all over their body. There was some people with literally full body armor on, for anybody who are some Full Metal Alchemist fans.

In the Diabetes Expo, there was alot of free stuff for diabetics, but it was a good experience. My mom went so she can get a sponsorship for a diabetic company, and help people see that anything is possible and give insight and stuff like that. So she talked with alot of representatives, and she got some numbers. Hopefully something will come out of it.

My mom got the keys to the apartment, and we moved a couple of things, and it's starting to come together. My mother has many many things in her apartment that simple will not fit into the smaller, more compact apartment, and they have to be rid of. So I told my mother to just take pictures of things she wants to sell, and I'd put them up on eBay.

Tomorrow I've got a music test, and I'm off on Tuesday and Wednesday, and I HOPE, to see a friend of mine. If your reading this you know you who are. I haven't seen her in a long time. I called her, because the anime expo reminded me of her, and I gave her a call. Anyway I hope to see her, hope she calls.

Getting there.

Tomorrow is my mother's expo at the Jovits Center, I hope it'll go well. She's presenting herself in front of an audience as a diabetic who's had many milestones in her life, a couple of them being one of the oldest juvenile diabetics in the world, and having a kid, which would be me. So in a way, I'm part of the showcase.

I've been composing a list of scene to mark as some of the funniest scenes in movies of all time, so hopefully I'll chug that out pretty soon. I might do a little movie compilation or something, or just post up existing youtube videos. The thing about that is, I don't really have copyright or trademark or whatever it is, and I really don't want to get sued for posting up some silly videos.

I'm at Season 5 of Malcolm In The Middle now, so I'm almost done. It got less funny, but it's still very funny. I absolutely adore the intro's to every episode, most of them are just great.

Too much Need.

Here's my review for NFS: Carbon. Now there have been many many versions of Need For Speed, but the most popular are probably Most Wanted, Underground, and this one. They release a new version at least once every year, or every other year, so it's always being improved graphically, as well as glitches, and all the good stuff. The only thing that usually makes a game good is the story, the UI, and other stuff like that.

Review for "Need For Speed: Carbon".

What It Is.
A Racing Game! You basically go around racing everyone, until you win that part of town, then that part of the city, then the whole city. There's also many cars that you can choose from, but depending on the classes that you choose from, some cars won't be unveiled until later. There's also the Challenge Series, which can actually get quite challenging. I haven't beaten all of it, simple because I didn't care about the rewards, but some of them are fun.

How It Works.
Well, first your the driver from the previous game before that, which I believe was Most Wanted, I'm not very sure. So you come back, but some cop guy catches you because your on bounty, and then another guy comes and tells you that he owns you, and you race for him. So you race for him, and eventually conquer most of the city. After that, he gets pissed off, and you race him. There's also 3 types of cars. Exotic, Tuner, and my personal favorite, Muscle. There's something like 76 cars I think.

My Experience.
Well, I've played this game many times and I've never really beaten it until like 2 months ago. I kept having problems with it on Windows, because it would cause me trouble, so I got a Mac port, and it worked fine, except the auto-sculpting, which really isn't that important. I did like it, but it gets a little boring, just like the rest of the racing games on this world except a couple. The only thing that really keeps you going is getting new cars and tuning to have the ultimate power!

The Good.
Hmm, well definitely the graphics are good, for the time, and AI gets on your nerves a little, so I guess thats good, because it shows its a little advanced. The amount of cars that you can choose from is plenty, although it's not like other realistic racing games where you have like 200 cars to choose from. The single player mode, isn't that short, but it isn't that long either, which makes it just right. You could beat the whole game in about 2-3 days, 2-4 hours a day.

The Bad.
The cut scenes are really good and amazing, with the whole innovative live-action sequences that the NFS series have been known for, but there aren't enough of them. That goes probably for all NFS games. The physics engine is pretty bad though. What happened to the engine from Most Wanted? It was probably the most realistic of all of them. In Carbon, there was no rain, no gravity, and it was always dark.

My Future Expectations.
I'm not going to play NFS: Pro Street, because it's completely different from the rest. That, and it got alot of bad reviews, and alot of people hated it, including some of my friends. The newly unveiled NFS: Undercover looks good though, and I'm kind of curious.

My Rating For This Game.
This is an okay game, but it doesn't take much to make an okay racing game. I don't really have much of an opinion, but it was fun to play for about a week. I give this game a 6.5 out of 10.

Malcolm is still going.

I've been watching Malcolm In The Middle for like days now, and I just started Season 4. There are 7 seasons, but it's just getting funnier and funnier.

It's also my friend's mother's birthday, whom I'll be calling later to wish a happy birthday.

I have a couple other lined up TV Shows to watch, namely Lost, and maybe, just maybe Naruto. I also want to watch Tin Man, which is not really a TV Show, or a movie, it's weird to describe it.

I've also lately wanted to meet girls, I really want to meet that special someone. Awww, Bijan wants love. Who doesn't. I've been seeing girls, like, visually, but haven't been doing much about it, and I really want to.

In other news, I've been having a little more work at college, which is great. I just want to do some work, build up my responsibility.

Gotta go bike in 40 minutes. Later.

Birthday's are fun.

So it was my friend's birthday yesterday, and we had alot of fun. We left to the train station and went to Greenvale, a place in long island. So when we get there, I met one of his friend's, Amanda. Amanda is a really nice sweet person. She has a girlfriend in Massachusetts, and she's really a kind person. She's the type of person that can get along with anyone, I really like her.

So after we to Greenvale, she picks us up, and we go to this Japanese Buffet place called Minado, or Mirato or something like that, but it was really good. I ate alot of sushi and chicken, fish and stuff. So after my third plate, we all left and Amanda dropped up off at this place called the Arboretum, which is a place full of huge trees and flowers and everything. There's also alot of open field, so we took pictures and roamed around.

We got to this little event called Feng Shui, which was like some type of ritual, where you write down whatever you want in the present or future, so we wrote it down, but we got very bored because they just kept talking about chi and energy and stuff, so we left.

Then we continued to walk around, and we decided that I should teach Mike some martial arts. We practiced kicking, and punching, and basic stuff that you learn in a typical martial arts class. It was pretty nice we got some excersize.

So we wanted to leave, but the place is very very very far away from the train station. We walked like 3 hours to C.W. Post University, and it turned out there weren't any buses to a train station. So we ended up calling Amanda and got a ride home. I gave him my watch and he really liked it, and we really enjoyed our day.

Review. Next Post. If I Remember...

Great stuff.

So my mother has a new apartment in Harlem. It's great, because it's Free! You know why it's free, it's because she's disabled and has all of these problems. For those of you who have actually read through my previous blog posts, you may know that she is a juvenile diabetic, who is legally blind, and has a heart attack, and heart problems. Basic point she isn't in a very good condition.

From her appearance though, she looks very healthy and strong. When you look at her, you don't think she has any problems, and that is the problem itself. So she has to call the department of health to issue her a card that she can carry around with her that says that she is disabled.

So we went to look at the apartment, and it's actually really nice, for one person anyway. It's like a studio apartment. There's one huge room, and it's connected with the kitchen which is very small, but enough to cook food. There's 2 closets, one big, one small, and a bathroom. Very nice though, if I had a place to live, I'd live there. I would show pictures, but I don't have them with me.

So after we saw the apartment, we walked around the neighborhood, and it's actually a really nice place. If your wondering where, it's around 126th Street, and Lenox Avenue.

Then after, we came home, and my aunt, and my mother's best friend, and her daughter came, and we had a great time. The best friend, Sevgi, and the daughter Meric, stayed over and we had a lot of fun. We walked around the town, and just talked about random stuff.

So after, they left in the morning, and we went shopping for my best friend's (Mike) birthday. I won't say what I got him, cause he could be reading this, but it's really nice.

I'll try to review NFS: Carbon next post, maybe, maybe not, no guarantee's.

just a message.

Writing from my iPod Touch, so it's kind of weird. I don't have any computer access at my mothers house so I'm stealing some wifi from some place, I don't even know from where.

It's hard writing like this, but I wanted to post something up bcause it's been 3 days. My mother got a new apartment which is frigging great, she really needs it. Also it's my best friends birthday and I want to get him something nice.

Right now I'm waiting for some friends to come over and I'm watching tv for the first time in months. Seinfeld, oh yeah.

Biking.

Biking is great. Yesterday I biked to school for the first time, that's about 14 miles, and it took about an hour to go, and to come back. So altogether I'm doing about 28 miles a day, in 2 hours, which I think is great.

My grandmother thinks I'm crazy for doing this, and on-top of it, she doesn't believe I'm going to school because of it. I couldn't believe it when I told her, she looked at me with disgust, and it was so stupid, I don't think I'll ever feel the same way, if she truly believes that I would ditch college like that, it really upset me.

1. I would save 4 bucks a day, on top of transfers and waiting for the bus and stuff.
2. It takes a shorter amount of time to get there on bike, because with a bus, you have to wait, go to a station, wait some more, and then get on another bus.
3. Don't have to deal with assholes on the bus.
4. Excersize, better for the body, feel great.

That's all I really have to say for today.

It's tomorrow.

So I have school tomorrow, and I'm actually looking forward to it.

See the things is, I've barely really learned anything, and I'm yearning for knowledge. I don't want there to be a misconception to make people think that I think I'm too smart or whatever, I just want knowledge, and I'm just not getting any. My psychology class, is good though, and I like it, but as for my music class, and my math class, and writing, I really am too ahead. I scored really high on my placement exam for the writing section, and I'm doing the greatest in my class, I think anyway.

Well, I hope I'll be learning more, and I want more assignments, I really haven't been given much to do. My homework is very simple stuff, takes 10 minutes to do, and I just want to be handed an assignment that would frustrate me and piss me off, I want that.

I think I'm going to bike to school for the first time, I hope it goes well. I bought a lock, and it should be a good one, I spent 20 bucks on it, so it better be worth the money.

I want to make a video...I need to get some of the voices in my brain out of there, and cast it out...No I'm not crazy, just Bijan.

More people!

It seems that I have a much larger audience than I thought I had!

As some of you know, you come from my AIM profile on Dragonmantek, where there's a link for you to come here. I've been talking around, and surprisingly most of my friends actually read my blog, it's really comfortable feeling. It makes me happy that my friends read things I write. I've always wanted to write a book, and I guess this is the closest I've gotten so far.

On top of my friends, there's others as well, because I see some input from other states and such, so it's great.

My goal is to try to hopefully gather enough people as my audience to share my opinions towards the world that is today.

On another note, I started up on another TV series called Dead Like Me. It's really good so far, and I like it more as it goes on, kind of like John Doe.

I'm seriously considering writing about writing about TV series, but it would take alot of time to write one, and alot of time to read it, because it would be so long. Whatever, we'll see.

Turkcan rules.

So, in essence, maybe Phil just ate Ronnie, and now we can't find him. His phone is lost anyway.

So after my other friend Amanda, kicked them out of her house, they called me, and asked me if they could come over. I naturally said sure, and they came on over.

While Ronnie was here, I showed him Spore, because he was fascinated with the game as much as I am. So while I was showing him, he just got so amazed as I was going through the cell, and creature stage. After that I showed him Space stage and terra-forming he really liked it, so I gave him the mouse, and he created a monkey, it turned out really cool. My other friend Phil got really bored, because there was no action, but sure enough, I started picking on other nations and got into wars and stuff, and then he liked it.

So, again, Spore can be everything you want it to be, no matter what type of game you really like. There are some videos up on youtube, that just tell you "buy me".

Right now, we're waiting for food, and we're going to watch "The Truman Show", which I might review. Gotta go.

Hulked Out.

This is a movie review, that I just feel like getting out of the way. As most of you know, who are comic fans, or movie fans, there was a remake of The Hulk of 2003, called The Incredible Hulk. Ooh, like the Incredible makes a huge difference. There will be spoilers, watch out!

Review of "The Incredible Hulk".

Plot Summary.
The Hulk returns from the forest of the last movie from 2003, and he's hiding this time. Everyone thinks that he's dead, but guess what, he's the frigging Hulk, and he can't really die. I mean, in the comics all that was left was a heart, and he regenerated from that. He eventually was able to breathe in space, and water, and is practically invulnerable to anything because he's the damn Hulk, and he can rival superman at his strongest. So anyway, the army is out to get him, and they can't, because he's the Hulk. So they give this semi-rebel soldier something close to what turned Bruce into the Hulk in the first place. It went chaotic though, because it was done medically, whereas Bruce's transformation happened genetically, and through a massive amount of radiation, so he's more "controlled" if you understand my meaning. So the rebel, goes rebel, and they decide "screw it, go get him Hulk", and realized he wasn't bad at all. So they fight, and obviously the Hulk wins, because it's the Hulk.

The Good.
The CGI effects and graphics were re-worked many many times. They even re-did the whole scheme a month before it was shipped. They also changed the CGI on posters and advertisements everywhere, and enhanced it, so they put alot of work into it, and it turned out great. The actor's were okay, and I'm a real big fan of Edward Norton, and he's a very good actor, I don't think I've met one person in disagreement. That's about all the good I can come up with.

The Bad.
Okay the first thing, is the ridiculous semi-montages that are happening throughout the movie. The opening credits of the movie are pretty bad, because it's supposed to lead up from the last movie, but they even kind of screwed that up. The name of the movie should be changed too, cause you don't name a sequel to a movie by adding Incredible to the title, that's just not how it goes, you should name it something like "The Hulk: Regeneration" or something, I don't know. Also, the sudden change in actors, that's stupid. And the action! There was practically no action, and the action there was, it wasn't all that pleasing.

My overall thoughts.
Before I even saw the movie, I knew it wasn't going to be all that good, because it got pretty bad reviews from critics, except for a couple, who only said it was "generally favorable" if I remember right. I'm a big fan of comics, as some of you might know, and I even believe that, in times of stress the Hulk could beat Superman, but that's a completely different topic. I didn't quite understand why they were making a sequel, because it wasn't even by the same director, and I was really confused. I really liked the original first Hulk movie of 2003, and I liked the original TV series even more.

My Rating.
I'm gonna go ahead and give this movie a 6 out of 10. It was pretty poor, and I only gave it .1 lower than the general public did.

Loved all night long.

With Spore, that is.

Here we go, here is the review for the game Spore of 2008, there are other Spores, but none of them have any level of hype as this one.

Now, as all of my reviews, there will be spoilers, but in actuality, there really isn't much to spoil. The mission modes are nothing to deep into a story, in fact, there practically is no story, you make it your own. Now, there's a not-so-big story to the game itself, so I'll write about that right now, as I've been following the game from the very start.

Spore's idea was created in around 2003-2004 that we know of, probably way before that in my opinion. It was based off of a couple other games, which I won't name, because I'll go into another frenzy with my knowledge. So after the idea was created, which was considered insane, because it's really really hard to program something like that, it would take decades for me to do something like that. So he presented the idea, and it took off with the help of a great team. In 2005, they demo'd the game at E3, and people went crazy for it, and it had titles on youtube, such as "SPORE: Possibly the greatest game ever!?", which was roughly a 30 minute clip including all levels that have been released today. After a while, they put out a release date for early 2006, which moved to late 2006, and then late 2007, and early 2008, and finally late 2008. It drove people like me crazy, because we couldn't wait to get our hands on it. Then they demo'd the game at Leipzig, and E3, NASA, and other conventions. Demo after demo, the game seemed to change more and more over the years. The graphical interface kept changing, the way the gameplay seemed to change, but nevertheless the idea stayed the same, and more was added constantly. Spore was officially released in Australia on 9/4/08, and 9/6/08 in the US and 9/5/08 in the UK. EA hit a milestone with Spore, as it was the very first game released by them to have compatibility for both Mac's and Window's computers at the same time. This made me happy.

Review for "Spore".

What It Is.
Spore is really a milestone in the gaming industry, but it's not really seen like that from the general audience. Spore enables you to quite literally design everything you want, everything! You can design animals, buildings, aircraft, vehicles, spaceships, and even planets, Terra-forming them to whatever you want them to be, to make lava-flowing planets, to dry and ice-cold planets. You can create a peaceful creature, or create Mario, and creatures from Half Life 2, which is a little difficult, but you can do it. Essentially, Spore is everything you want it to be, because you can configure what you want. And sharing your creatures with others isn't so bad either.

How It Works.
This is the big deal of the game. It uses a very hard to program technique called procedural generation. This enables the CPU, not the graphical card, to create miscellaneous data on the fly. That is what makes the game tick. Anything that you create, be it creatures, planets, vehicles, are all very very small files, around under 30 kilobytes, depending on what it is. So lets say you make 5000 creatures, those 5000 creatures are actually very small, and add up to a total of only around 150. I really doubt you'll make that many creatures, but you can download that many passively. Now the procedural generation makes it so that whatever you make, anyway you make it, there is a way that the computer can take what you made, and bring it to life. Lets say you make a creature with 2 legs. When you do that, it knows that it's going to walk like a human, so it just walks along, if you add 2 more legs, the legs start acting like a cheetah's and are synchronized. If you really think about it, it's amazing how it works.

My Experience.
My experience with it was just amazing. It was like watching a little kid at a birthday party running around and having fun, except I had no physical activity with it. I will admit that I got a copy of Spore, before it even came out in the US, and I was very very happy with it. Now, I've been waiting for this game to come out for 4 years, so you can imagine what it was like, starting it for the first time. After it came out officially in the US, I ran to my local gamestop as soon as possible and I ran over to the cashier, and here's what the conversation went like:
"Do you guys have Spore?"
"Spore? Uh, I think so."
"Great! It came out today, I hope you guys still have a copy"
"You were the first one to ask, what is it?"
"Wow, uh, well, it's like a Sim Everything"
"Sounds cool, I'll try it out"
I was flabbergasted at that. I live in New York, and got it from Queens, and it was 4 PM, on release day, and I was the first one to ask for a copy. That aggravated me, but then I went online, and had seen that thousands had bought it, and were registered online, so I got happy again. I was also surprised that the guy didn't know what this game was. I went around asking people after that, and I started realizing how many people didn't know about this game. So I started talking to people about it, and they looked into it, and really liked it. The game almost took over my life for 2 days. The day I got it, I played it all night long, until around 4 AM, and then went to sleep, woke up 2 hours later, and started up at it again. I've been crazy about the game ever since, and I still am. That's why it's taken me a while to post this up.

The Good.
Great simple gameplay. Some would count the simplicity level as a bad, but in my case, simple is great, it makes for a game that's understandable for all ages, and is fun to play, and you know what your doing. Simply said, the editor for everything in the game, is just mind boggling. Now I know why it took them 4 years to develop the damn game. It's so intricate on a programming level. The size of the game is mind-boggling as well. The graphics, would also generally be put into the bad category, but seeing as how this game forcefully made it graphics bad so it could reach more people, was a great move. My mother's old 4 year computer could run it on lowest settings. And the game does look incredibly beautiful with settings at maximum, with a good resolution. Lots of good here. One more thing, the gameplay is very hard to tire. There's always something to do, and you can do it with a friend. The audio aspect of the game is amazing too, it really gets your attention. Every time you click somewhere there's an ambient affect, that goes in perfect sync with the background music, it really lures you in. Passively downloads other creatures, planets, vehicles from other people, really neat to see interesting creatures roaming around.

The Bad.
The simplicity. And the graphics. Now, let me get this clear first, I'm not against these, but I'm only putting them down, because most people hate these things about games. This game is not targeted for adults, it's for everyone, and you can tell just by looking at the damn cover of the game. I'm not going to say that not having a multiplayer capability is bad, because it obviously wasn't made for that reason, it was meant to be a single player game, and they went beyond that, making it a very unique experience.

My Future Expectations.
Now, this is coming from Maxis, who made 8 expansions for Sims, and even more for Sims 2, as well as expansion packs for the Sim City games. There will no doubt be a Spore expansion pack. Which we will probably spend boatloads of money on, which noone wants, but I'll probably do it anyway. I don't really know what to expect from an expansion, if there will be one, because there's already so much, that I can't think of much more for them to put into the game. It's already a top-notch game, and has so much. Maybe a pure multiplayer capability?

My rating for this game.
I give this amazingly addicting, un-tiring game a near perfect score of 9.5. Yes it was that good, but maybe only because I'm a fan of the game. They set the goal to make a good game, and they made it. A few imperfections are in every game, so there really never is a perfect game, although maybe I could be wrong.

The next one will be a review.

I just want to express my feelings on some things right now, so this will be a pretty short post.

College is going great, and I have to do some homework right after I write this post, but I want to play Spore, constantly, it's so addicting! It's great.

My dad finally fixed my bike, and now I'll hopefully be saving 4 dollars a day without taking the bus, and get some good exercise out of it too.

I got books for school, and new headphones, when my old ones broke, and I legally bought Spore, and am meeting new people everyday in college.

Everything looks promising, especially this review, if I finish it by tomorrow, it's a pretty short single player kind of mission thing. I'll explain it next review.

Spored out man.

OK, OK. I got Spore. Yeah, a couple days before release. I know, right? Damn Australians.

Well, I've been playing it for a while now, and I almost pulled an all-nighter, which I never do, because I'm not a very avid, addicted personality gamer person.

I'll be sure to review it as soon as I can actually get far into the game. As of the moment I am in the Space stage, but it's a really long stage. I'll save the details for the review.

In other news, I had to go to MicroCenter today for a second interview, and a drug test. Great eh? I was told that if the drug test goes through, which it will because I'm not a drug user, I would get 8 dollars an hour on Friday's and Sunday's in the evening, with the possibility of working in the morning before school. So hopefully it will all fit together.

I haven't posted because my mother was in the hospital. She went in due to heart palpitations, it's horrible. They switched her insulin, and it got really screwed up, and her body couldn't get used to it or something. I hope she'll be alright. I'm going to her tomorrow, so I won't be posting for another couple of days, and the Spore review might be a little delayed because I don't have a computer at her house.

Hopefully, my next post will be a review.

Firsy Day of College.

So my day went alright. I left for school at around 1:30, and right when I went outside the bus had passed me. Then I waited, and the next bus didn't come until around 1:50, and it wasn't the bus I need to go to the transfer point. I need N32, and I got N31, and boarded it mistakenly. So I got off a stop in a little bit, and then had to wait for the N32, which came at around 2:00. My class starts at 2:30.

So it came, and I went to the transfer point, and thank god, the bus that I needed to get on, came in only like 2 minutes. I was in a really big rush, but I got to the college 15 minutes early. So I walked around campus.

My first class is a statistics class, which deals in alot of boring numbers and percentages.
My second class is a macroeconomics class which deals with economics! Yay! My professor is really cool and funny though.
My third class is a psychology class, which I was completely looking forward to, but it got canceled.

Overall, it's a great school. I met a friend, and we walked around and played pool at the colleges gaming building. There's also lots of beautiful girls, which I love, it's like eye candy, but alot of them smoke and have piercings, which is a huge turnoff for me, but whatever, in time, I'll make some friends, I already have one.

I'm going to leave in about an hour, and it's 12:35. It takes about an hour to get there, with 2 transfers, but it's not that bad. It costs 4 dollars to go there and come back a day, which isn't that bad, but I'd really rather bike there, but my bike is broken, and I'm waiting for my dad to fix it.

In other news, Microcenter called me and told me to go there at 12 PM, they didn't say why, just to meet with this guy Tom. I think it's probably training, and stuff like that.

My headphones broke! I got so sad, but also it was a really cool experience. I put my iPod touch into my back pocket, so I was sitting down, and when I shifted positions, and plastic covering the wiring ripped off, and the wiring got all screwed up. I was listening to Such Great Heights by The Postal Service, and it sounded really really cool because when the wiring breaks, some of the sounds come out disfigured such as the singing or the drumming.

RIP Skull Candy In-Ear Headphones.

Now I have to deal with the big Skull Candy Headphones, that refuse to stay on my head.

Start of school

So I'm starting my first college class ever in a couple of hours, and I can't wait. I wonder how my professor's will be and what's going to happen. Will I make new friends? I frigging hope so. I'm content with the friend's I have now, of course, but I want some college buddies.

I want to use the gym, but I have that awkward feeling when a weak white guy [more than half of my school is black] goes to a gym and curl's a 30 pound weight, and some huge guy next to you is lifting like 80. It gets to you, but I'll get there, I have no shame.

Yesterday I went to a BBQ, and it was fairly fun. I had to pay 3 bucks to get in, as it was a Model Congress thing, and everyone pays for those to raise money for some reason. We took some pictures, but not much. I ate alot, which is great.

If you want an interesting album to listen to, I recommend Grow Up and Blow Away, by Metric, it's great.

So yeah.

I'm pretty much guaranteed a job at Microcenter, because I went to the interview today, and the guy talked to me like he was already telling me what days I would be working, when I would be working, and what I would be doing. Which is great, because I love the store. I'll be getting a cashier position which sucks, because that is not what I was aiming for, and certainly not what was advertised. I wanted a salesperson position for the Macintosh section, but I'll take the cashier, it's better than nothing, and I get money for it.

The MTA is really screwed up, it says a bus comes every 10 minutes but it takes like 30. And I had to transfer 3 times, so it's pretty ridiculous. My dad told me that once we get some money, we'll get a car for me, and then I can drive everywhere I need to. Which is awesome.

In other news, I'll later be reviewing "Me You and Everyone We Know", which won many many awards. I'll actually start posting up pictures with my reviews now. Hopefully I can move toward full video reviews in the near future, when I get a Camera, and learn some techniques for making a video.

Out.
