Well today is the last day of November. This doesnt get to be a sweet november for me though. I dont know, if you've ever tried to give someone a piece of your heart, and had them say they weren't ready for it you know what i felt like yesterday. I guess it wasnt that bad, its better than someone taking your heart, stomping on it and then throwing it in the trash.

Anyways, in wingman speak, i've basically run out of gas and needed to touchdown in some far off country and lost the target i was looking for only to refuel and rise once again, to find more targets. To top it off school has been really sucking. i wish winter break would just start already because i'm ready for just chillin , eating, and sleeping.

Well yesterday kinda sucked. I basically just dragged myself through my classes since all i really had to do was go to my e95 class and rate presentations again. At least i did my research for my paper finally and i wrote down all the stuff i needed to do. I realized there is a lot to do but i think i can do it if i dont goof off in torrance. i dont really want to go back to torrance too much, since all i really need there is my cellphone charger and to maybe get my car looked at again, though it seems to be ok now. Oh yes there is a big car story.

Yesterday, i wanted to go to yoshinoya, so i was gonna get in my car. My car has been having this starting problem where maybe 1 out of 20 times, it wont start correctly and i've got to give it a while. Anyways it wouldn't work yesterday and well i had been meaning to get a new battery. Anyways, i had previously ran down the battery and well this car was salvaged so who knows what condition the battery was in. Anyways after like 20 tries i tried shifting to neutral first in accessory mode and i barely got the car to start. By then AAA had come but i told them to just leave. Anyways i drive around looking for places that will install a battery at 9pm and luckily the 76 station did. $107 later i had a new battery, even though they tested the old one and said it was ok (yes i know $107 is a lot, its like $50 at sams club). Anyways so all is good, i hope. They checked out my starter and said it was ok too. Maybe its a wiring deal, or maybe some wire wasnt connected well, but i don tknow it seems to start better now. I noticed that like most of the time when i get out of the car, i get a little static shock from the door, that never happend before, so maybe the battery wasn't grounded to the chassis right before.

So today, i had to get donuts for esuc. I went to van nuys to krispy kreme. Took 10 minutes to get there, and a horrific hour to get back. ANyways, i did get to see like a krispy kreme assembly line and got a hot fresh donut off it, so that was good. On the way back i was fiddling with my sunglasses and i accidentally bumped into a truck ahead of me. Yes i am an unsafe driver and you should never trust me but it was bumper to bumper and i was going 2 mph. Nothing happened to his car, but later we both pulled over, and well i dented my front license plate. Ok whatever. SO i go to esuc drop the donuts off, and its like 9am. Came home and slept , worked on a little math and basically just chilled all day. I guess it wasnt too productive but i've had a lot on my mind lately. Oh yeah, I am pretty much the full historian for ESUC now since no one ran against me, so yay. Next year maybe i can be president at this rate.... mwahahahaha.

Mostly what i've had on my mind is being really insecure. Especially for tommorrow for those of you that know what happens tommorrow. Anyways, i think my head is on straight again. Oh yeah i hope my shaving thing doesnt take effect, since well i was cleaning up stray facial hair when i accidentally shaved to far and had to shave all my moustache off. That sucked. So now i've got no moustache, no goatee, and a buzzed head. Oh well, i think i'll go work on that math a bit more so i dont fail the class.

Well i already updated today, but i was bored and had an idea. I did two of my math programs, somehow they were really easy. I still need to work on my e95 paper, which i havent started on, and my ee2 homework due next monday. I also need to catch up in math since i'm like 3 sections behind. Not to mention i didnt do my last 2 homeworks. Arg. Right now, i'm just thinking about what Christmas presents i wanna buy people. I dont know, but i'm looking forward to giving people Christmas presents. Uh... thats about all. Anyone know any nice , quiet not too expensive ($10 or less a person) restaurants that i havent been to yet in the westwoodish area?

Well i think i'm gonna be hardcore studying to pass my classes again. Yes this sucks. I think i'm still actually doing ok in EE2. Engineering95 all i have to do now is write a paper , after i turned in my extra credit book review today. But math, oh man that class, i hope i get a C. i dont think this teacher gives less than Cs, so thats probably good. He gave out these projects to do with mathematica in the pic lab, but the license for mathematica ran out there so i have no mathematica to use. Trying to download it on morpheus but there was already a crc error. NOOOO!!! downloading it again hope its ok. I have close to nothing to look forward to this week except dinner with a special friend. So i guess thats a lot to look forward to. But i have to do a lot of work too. I got rid of 7 laptops today also. that was good. Uh... oh yeah i buzzed my head, i hope everyone doesnt think i'm crazy now.

Right now its wednesday. Afternoon. I was thinking just now. Fate works in mysterious ways. But right night i wanna grab fate stick it in a burlap sack and beat this shit out of it. No nothing bad happened.

Have you ever had that feeling that no matter what you were doing you couldn't concentrate very well? Thats what its like to be me right now. I needed to do 2 critiques for engineering 95 class and i basically just wrote two pathetic excuses for papers. Tommorrow is my presentation. hopefully it goes well. Things are going pretty well, matt is probably right, a big bad thing will happen. Or maybe i'm just due and this is what god has decided to tell me that he's there for me. Or maybe i just am that cool. Or maybe the meteor shower lit up some cosmic stuff and .... uh well whatever, it'd be tough to bring me down right now, its like i'm on crack but i'm not.

Hmmm. well i'm having a great weekend. i still have some homework to do, but even that cant take away from anything. I havent really been actually doing much, except i went up to rieber. and i gotta meet my ethics paper group today. but thats ok, everything is fine. because i'm the best. or at least thats what i've been told and that makes me happy.

Michael Jordan looks weary. He's worn down, worn out. They've been playing for hours now and are both tired, but the game still isn't over. There still isnt' a clear winner. But then a sudden shock clears Kobe's mind. His predecessor on the Lakers Eddie Jones walks by and sees this great battle. Having been friends with Kobe since Kobe's high school days he wants Kobe to win. He says something to Kobe that changes the whole situation. Kobe is reinvigorated and has a killer instinct in his eye. As usual he easily takes Jordan on a crossover dribble. Going to his left, he decided to try and drive the lane. The invisible force had stopped him dead in his tracks, but it had been a while since he tried. He explodes from the left baseline and leaps across the lane. With a 2 handed reverse jam he makes his statment. Michael Jordan may have been the best player in the history of the NBA, but Kobe isn't done yet.

Michael Jordan is on the court. At 38 years old he has lost a step or two, not quite the player he once was. But he's established, has 6 championship rings, a veteran player and respected throughout the league. Kobe Bryant sees him and steps past the sideline. He is up for this challenge. Against the shell of the former Airness he doesnt think he can lose. Even though he's only 23 years old, he's battled the best in the NBA while winning 2 chamionships in just 5 years in the league. He has the killer crossover, the slashing drives to the lane, the jumpshot, and the vertical leap that jordan lost years ago. Then the game begins.

Jordan starts off with the ball at the top of the key and pridefully tries to drive on Kobe. Knowing he's slower he posts Kobe up and hits a fadeway jumper from the baseline. With his confidence boosted, Michael feeling like the Michael of old, goes for a layup on his next possession and gets rejected by Kobe. Kobe recovers the ball and clears it. Its his time to shine now. Michael and Kobe glistening with sweat, talking trash at the top of the key, know that this is the most competitive game of their lives. Knowing Michael is not the same player who won All NBA defensive team awards earlier in his career Kobe crosses him over. He steps into the paint only to be stopped by an invisible force. He can't jump, can't lift his arms. Nothing works and he feels helpless. He steps back and hits an open jumper, but the situation puzzles him.

Jordan notices his difficulty and just gives him a crooked smile. Kobe thinking to himself, "What does he have that i dont...I'm better than him...why cant i drive the lane?" Gathering himself, Kobe tries a headfake and spinmove only to be stopped by the invisible force once again. He has to settle for jumpshots every time he shoots, the invisible force crippling his game. The score is close and the lead changes repeatedly, since Kobe can lose Jordan at will and get an open jumper. Jumpshots however, are still not as automatic as a nice dunk. As the game progresses Kobe's frustrations mount and the same thought repeats through his mind. He thinks about Michael, as a fixture of the NBA for years, he'd always been there, took the league to its finest moments. Why does the invisible force help him? The game wears on and Kobe finally understands, but has no control over it and the battle continues.....

Well its 9 am and i'm going to ee today. I bet sona and terry will be surprised. Anyways happy birthday luke. you are 19 now, dont crash that car when you drive it tonight. This weekend i didnt do too much. I got home, had boba with matt and brian on friday. Saturday i fixed laptops till about 11:30 pm and then starbucks with brian. Sunday me and matt drove up to westwood while we learned stuff about how women think. The girls go out with guys not because they are interested but just to go was particularly interesting. monday i fixed more laptops. I have like 11 or something here at school. Last night i wrote my book review. I had an almost normal sleeping schedule yesterday i slept from 9 pm to 1:30 am. And then i stayed up and slept again from 7:30 am to 9 am. Now, outside of that 6 hour hole i was normal. haha.

Well havent done much in a while. Yesterday i had boba at lollicup with a friend of mine. Thats probably the best boba in westwood. the people seemed nice too. I was kinda mad the other day because i sent my HP laptop out to some guy in texas and he says its dead. sucks what hassles. i bet its easy to fix too, but it'll cost me like $40 just on shipping it around. I also didnt do too great on my ee2 midterm, and well i was bugged by the fact that some people came out right after and asked me how it was, and were surprised when i said it sucked. i guess there are always those people. Today i am supposed to do math homework , but i wrote to the daily bruin instead and will do the math soon. oh yeah i did another thing, i cooked some rice and made an omelete to eat. yeah i cooked.

Isn't it just cool

Well i've been playing with my new MD player today its awesome, so small, so much battery life. just awesome. Anyways, i have an ee2 midterm tommorrow. i am confident i will get at least a B considering i re-read all the reading, and have done allthe homework, and stayed up till 7am yesterday doing the homework so that i can get an A. And i did it all right too!! hahahaha, its what 6th week already , and i'm still doing well in a class. this is a miracle.

Well after looking at my ee2 midterm sample today i was really scared. then i went to the website and it turns out my professor is an asshole and is giving us all new material in addition to homework that is gonna be on the midterm. Shouldnt' be too horrible as his homework is pretty easy, but that was scary. Anyways i've got this plan now, to do the new reading, do the homework, re read everything, and then go over the samples and lecture notes. Hopefully i get a good grade as i think i have an A right now based entirely on homework. If i end up with a B in this class that would be great. Anyways not much else going on, i'm gonna be in torrance friday afternoon to probably sunday morning or saturday night . If you guys wanna do anything then let me know, matt we are gonna get boba. Also here is a great picture jason sent me. I think i posted this before but whatever.

I knew he was mexican all along.

Hell while i'm at it, lets bring back this.
