Repeal Helmet Laws

Andy, 30 November 2001

1. Action Thrift was rad. I got tons of cool stuff.
2. I’ve signed up for moodstats. Go check them out. It’s like a super diary with tons of statistics built it, and it’s made by the cool guys at K10K, so you know it’s good.
3. I just got done adding a 9th gallery to the photos section. The helmet t-shirt is from the thrift store. Heh.

My very last class of the quarter is in 40 minutes. Woohoo! Now to just get through finals….


Oil Drilling

Andy, 29 November 2001

Kalin bought me a brownie and hot chocolate at Earl’s Place because I helped her make a web site for her Oceanography class. We made the entire site in under 60 minutes. Hooray! Tomorrow = thrift store bombing.


Busy Bee

Andy, 26 November 2001

Looks like I’ve got some catching up to do. Here goes:

Logan and I got back on campus around 2:30am this morning; I finally got in bed after unpacking and everything around 4:30am and had to wake up 4 hours later to go help out with MQ distribution, which was a blast. I got to drive the cart, which is like Go-Karting at a fun park, but instead of confining ourselves to a track, we drive around crowds of people handing out papers and shouting apologies for our terrible driving skills. More fun cannot be had on a Monday morning. Now I have to slave away on a research paper and a large math assignment, both due tomorrow. I’ll then be waking up around 8:45am again, only to face another insanely busy day. Luckily, the rest of the week should be a bit better.


Thanksgiving

Mike, 25 November 2001

Turkey is best, and cranberry sauce is better.


No Sleep ’til Brooklyn (or Nevada City, Whichever Comes First)

Andy, 21 November 2001

Another night without sleep. I hope Logan doesn’t get mad when I sleep the whole ride back home. With traffic, what should be a 10 hour drive may end up being closer to 14.


Sleep Deprivation

Andy, 18 November 2001

Well, I just pulled another all-nighter helping put the MQ together so that it can be printed tomorrow. It’s pretty cool to walk across campus when no one is awake. The sun has just risen and a thick fog blankets the area. On another, yet similar, note, my computer has been on for five days straight because of my painfully irregular sleep schedule. Something about this fact makes me grin.


Dead Man Walking

Andy, 17 November 2001

I am now officially a zombie. I woke up around 1:00pm on Thursday and proceeded to not sleep until 7:30pm or so on Friday. That’s 32 and a half hours. Not my personal record, but it still drained me of whatever life force I had left. When I finally got in bed at 7:30, I only slept a little more than 3 hours because I wanted to get up and go check out the MQ production meeting, which was fun. Now I’m back from that and it’s after 4:00am. I think I’m going to slip into a coma. The worst part of all this is that the lab that I stayed up doing all thursday night was a failure and I might have to drop my CSE 11 class before I fail. The stream of obscenities coming out of my mouth is never ending. This huge workload is constantly sodomizing me and has got me in a terrible mood.


Cam Galleries

Mike, 13 November 2001

NEW We have both sucessfully added archived photos of random stuff from our webcams. If anyone would like to see these photos click on the personal galleries link in the left-most cell of links above.

Anyone that can tell me when I got my hair cut, I will give a hug.


R.I.P.

Mike, 13 November 2001

Well I’ve got some bad news, I had my bike stolen last wednesday. So if anyone sees a blueish-purple Bridgestone bike with plastic fenders notify me right away, so I can grab my weapon-of-choice.

And another thought, it’s a good thing I live on the second floor.


Busted

Andy, 12 November 2001

Well, I just got out of the shower and was sitting here with nothing but boxers on responding to some ICQ messages, when out of the blue someone yells, “naked time!” through my window. Oh well.


Mission Accomplished

Andy, 12 November 2001

Well, we finally got in a successful visit to F-Street tonight after watching Shallow Hal. You’ll have to ask me in private about the fun we had in the store—like Kip hitting Troy with a 5 lb dildo. Anyway……it’s 5:30am and I need some sleep. Oh, before I forget to mention it: I’ve posted a bunch of old webcam shots that are worth keeping in the “personal galleries” section.


The Rarest of Occurrences

Andy, 10 November 2001

I’m feeling damn good right now. I went to bed at 9:40pm last night (that’s right, before midnight!) and woke up at 10:30am today. That’s almost 13 hours of sleep! This sort of thing needs to happen more often.


Titter

Andy, 9 November 2001

Thongs are rad.


Enigma Wins, or Loses

Mike, 9 November 2001

I just finished my english paper, and I just realized something.

Going to sleep after enigma is a bad thing.


Employment

Andy, 8 November 2001

I am now officially employed by the Art and Architecture Library of UCSD! $11/hr is very cool … I have a definate need for income, and this will do nicely. I start on monday. All I really do is scan slides and photos and touch them up in photoshop then post them to online databases. Good stuff. And it better involve a comfy chair because my ass is constantly screaming out in pain from sitting in this hard wooden chair all the time.


Politics

Mike, 8 November 2001

I am officially starting my own political party. The Assholes.


Kube is an Awful Prof

Andy, 8 November 2001

Studying for my CSE 11 midterm (which is tomorrow at 11:10am) wouldn’t be so hard if Kube’s lectures weren’t so boring. I like the subject matter, but I can’t keep my mind from wandering or my eyes from closing during lecture. Now I’m nervous because the test (all of which are written with pure evil in mind) counts as 20% of my grade. Damnit. My GPA is going to be utter shit this quarter.


Long Day

Mike, 6 November 2001

Today was by far the most tired day I have experienced in my life. I woke up at 8:30, went to my 9:00am physics class and slept through most of that. After that I had until 2:10 to write an essay, I huried home and ended up watching Saturday Night Live until 12:30pm. Wrote a paper that wouldn’t pass a sixth grade english class, and went to english. The entire time I was there I was on the verge of falling asleep. After that class I still had my astronomy lecture. I met up with friends and we went to class, I think I slept for about 5 minutes in that class and the rest of the time it was hard keeping my head off the desk. Now as I am writing this my eyes refuse to stay open for more than a few seconds. Crap.


Waking Life

Andy, 5 November 2001

Kip, Troy, Kalin and I saw the 10:00pm showing of Waking Life tonight. It is rad! The whole film was shot with a regular camera but then digitized and made to look like a painting … it resembles a flash5 movie. It was great … you should go seach for info on the movie at Wired News.


Thieves

Mike, 5 November 2001

Today I went to the movies, I went and saw Monsters Inc. Upon exiting the theater I proceeded to walk to the car that took me to the theater. The car next to me had no passenger window because it was broken. I am scared for my life.


Catching Up

Andy, 4 November 2001

Well, Robbie and Kathleen came over here around midnight and we managed to talk until dawn. Staying up all night rocks. Now I have to figure out how to reclaim my sunday because I still have quite a bit of work to do.


Halloween and Porn

Andy, 1 November 2001

Around 12:30am Kalin came over, stuck in the same predicament as the rest of us—nothing to do on Halloween night. Bored and itching to do something, anything, Kip, Kalin and I jump in Kalin’s car and head for a little 24-hour Mexican place that Kip likes so we can grab some cheap food. On the way back (the food wasn’t worth mentioning), we try to stop at F-Street (a chain of adult stores, i.e. porn and sex toys) to have some fun…but they’re closed for cleaning! Of all the nights to shut down a porn store so that the floors can be scrubbed, who picks Halloween? What if people need stuff like strap-ons or whips for Halloween costumes? That store has no pride in what it does. Bah. Now it’s quarter after 2:00am and we’re still bored. I’m tired. I think it might be bedtime.
