09/15/2003 Archived Entry: "Woot! New Layout"

I thank Maureen for making this layout.. because we all know I suck with blog layouts. I really wonder why my dog is pissing me off. He just stands there waiting for me and when I move towards him he's there to make trouble. He's like a little boy. *sigh.

We went to the bookstore earlier and bought books. The first Hana Yori Dango in English (it's kinda weird reading it since I've read the translations like 2 years ago), Ender's Game (which everyone says is one damn great book. Even the cashier was like 'This is a great book' --> I knew he was going to say something), the Picture of Dorain Gray (i've always wanted to read it so I may as well now) and Night by Elie Wiesel. Of course I'm still reading East of Eden. I can't seem to put that book down. It's really good. I have about 200 pages to go though. So hard to read something when you're doing homework too. Not that I have much homework yet. All I really have to do lately is to start speaking properly for my broadcasting class and do some HTML work for my design class which I haven't been doing because I am lazy and of course read pages upon pages of chapters from various other classes. Eh... there needs to be pills or something to stop people from being so damn lazy.

I saw R.E.M. on Thursday. It was great. Though we got the cheap seats, we were surprisingly close and we were facing the stage. If I would have gotten the more expensive ones we would have ended up closer but on the side. So yeah, our seats were great and R.E.M. played for like 2 hours. They'll always be cool though everyone thinks they're old now. Did you know though they were a new band, their album was voted the best by Rolling Stone Magazine over Michael Jackson's gazillion selling Thriller album that was released the same year? I thought that was rather interesting, not that you care but still, at least Rolling Stone knows that they're a band that can stand the test of time.

Hmm... I have to work tomorrow. But since I don't have to close I think I can get an Early Out. After being off for several days, it's hard to get back to working again. I don't really like to work when it's not busy because you get bored so easily but I don't like it being busy either because you get irate customers. Eh.. what can you do? You can't win at everything or rather, I can't win.

Well, I better sleep now. I have class tomorrow. Media critiscism. How fun *yeah right. But at least it's interesting.
