so it's official. Pluto is no longer an official planet. We're down to just 8.
read the article here.
I always thought Pluto was cool... oh well, sucks to be that planet... if you can, read all of the article. i like the quotes by the wife of the man who discovered Pluto, as well as the kids. haha.
quickly enough, new acronyms/sayings showed up on the Internet, like this one.
I've been waking up rather late this week. My goal is to be in by work around 8ish if possible. 9ish acceptable. My main reason is that it's hard to work for 2 hours, have lunch, then work for 6 hours. leaving late isnt that much of an issue, since I usually have nothing to do.
It's just hard because i go to sleep late. My body cant just wake up early unless if i have to. And I'm spoiled in that they dont mind me arriving late at work. So i feel i can just sleep (since it's healthier) and just go to work late. it's a cycle though. I'll sleep later.. wake up later... go to work later...
I guess i just need to force myself up. but honestly, my body feels it pretty bad. and I dont like taking coffee because my body feels all weird.
anyway. next week. I'll shoot for 9am.
a few of us went to this comedy jam up here in Mountain View. It was thrown by a radio station, Wild 94.9. The show headlined Carlos Mencia.. and others like Russel Peters and Lisa Lamponelli... the show was great, and i only took a few pictures... i shoulda taken some more...
all i know. is that today, Friday .. August 18, 2006.. at 8:20pm.. Metreon.. San Francisco, California...
I will watch Snakes on a Plane...
that is all...
i've been realy into the zelda games/lore recently. I guess because the new Wii game is coming out for it soon. So... i'm getting pumped up. i went on youtube.com and just began to browse things relating to zelda. to my surprise, there are a ton of musical pieces on zelda. and i found myself just thinking about the times i played Zelda:
so here's a list of a ton of Zelda themes. enjoy:
Zelda on/by:
- Ukulele
- String Quartet
- electric guitar
- Accordion
- a choir
- a piano
- on a theremin (wtf haha)
- on a flute
and one of my favorites...
- a cockatiel (haha)
man. i love the zelda series...
I was at work, when "nature" called. I head to the bathroom to pee, and run into "the dude". "The dude" is this one guy that i've noticed, twice today, pee ... and then just walk out, not washing his hands. My first reaction was, "Gross! wash your hands yo.. that's nasty." I then began to think about it some more...
Are our "private areas" really that full of malicous germs? Or is it more of a psychological thing, becuse we associate peeing/pooing as "bad" and "dirty". Are there really more germs down there than, say, your face or your nose? if not, then would it be considered gross to scratch your face and not wash your hands aftwards? I can see how picking your nose can be gross but is it really gross? Boogers arent really bad in the same way that a germ is, when you think about it.
People are obssesed with germs. They create "anti bacterial" soap, when in reality, i dont think the soap is on your hands long enough to kill the germs are they? I heard all you need is water to brush off 98% of germs or something like that. Even with soap, you will never get rid of the germs. and if you did, they'd probably come back right away since we touch things with germs eveyday: keyboard, books, chairs, doorknobs, money...
I, personally, have to wash my hands after i use the restroom. Even if it's just with water. I feel gross if i dont, and a bit guilty if i dont. As if i am breaking a taboo and becoming "the gross one" by not doing so.
aaaaaaaaaaanyway...
I bought a new bike. A Specialized Rockhopper. I can now hop rocks.
it's a pretty sleek bike with some nice parts.
every day, i go up to the 4th floor of my building to access my desk. so every day, i go up the elevator, assuming i dont take the stairs.. cuz you know, i like being healthy. ive noticed something that kinda bugs me. when people dont wait for the others to exit before entering the elevator.
i dont know about you, but i consider that a bit rude. you see these guys about to exit the elevator.. then bam!.. some dude rushes in all quick style and kinda smushes the people exiting... usually elevator doors arent meant for more than one person to travel through it at a given time...
anyway, usually these people, ive noticed, are the "asshoe" type... u know, you get that vibe like they think they are the top gun or are just somehow better than you.
they need to die.. and burn in hell!!
