ny new obsession and so long, SF!

Okay, so they got this awesome new arcade game at the Student Center. Imagine DDR, but with...A DRUM SET. Hi-hat, bass pedal, and everything. It was so cool! But it costs $0.75. Boooo! I played it twice. Very fun. The instructions are in Japanese and some of the songs too. I told L., who played as well, "If I strike it rich, this is the first thing I'm going to buy." I can't wait to get back to school so I can rule at the drums. Maybe I should just spare myself the trouble and buy a set of drums. Haha.

I'm at the hotel with my Dad. Free-internet access! So I can dork out away from home too! Oh, wow, I just referred to my apartment in SF as "home". We're going to walk to In-N-Out later for dinner. Yum! It's cold out, but I'm in the mood for a strawberry milkshake.

I'm looking forward to being home (parents' house). There are so many things that I have to do, that must get done. I've realized how much I've been slacking this past semestre by only taking three classes. I know some people who take 18 units a semestre and work. I've been so easy on myself, and I really shouldn't. So, I'm stepping it up next semestre, loading up on classes, volunteering at my site, and finding a job on campus. Oh, man, I'll be so burnt out by summer.

things that I must do over break:
-read (at least 4 books)
-finish Euro film
-film films (L. and I have this music video idea)
-not spend an obscene amount of time on internet
-do Oasis (an online Library requirement for school)
-figure out what you're going to do this summer
-study French and do as many French things as I can
-meet-up with friends

backgrounds I've been mistaken for (for Chauncey):
-- mixed: Filipino-White, Chinese-White, Hispanic-White
-- full: Japanese, White, Hispanic, Portuguese, Hawaiian, French, and Persian

potential classes for next semestre:
1. French Review 1
2. French 216 (grammar and composition)
3. Intro to Cinema Studies
4. Intro to Filmmaking
5. Archery (so cool!)
6. Intro to Philosophy

elaine a dit…

"one go". oh man, are you going to come back all british and everything? kidding. that was really cute. naw, with "one go" you get to play along to three songs.

dude, you need to hit in-n-out, some awesome mexican food, and then tommy's. awesome.

i totally forgot about narnia. hurry up and come over here before it's out on dvd!

the video has three parts--three separate songs to create the story. there might be dancers. we're going to wing it a bit actually. we have a set idea, but anyone who wants to help out is in.

elaine a dit…

yay! you're almost here!

don't worry about the british thing. i think it's really cool that you soaked up all that brit culture and the mannerisms.

about the video...i don't want to talk about it much or else i'll jinx the project and it'll never happen. ;)
