ell. I guess this is the beginning of a new era for my update page. And well, here we are. Now isn't this just exciting? As I say on the index page, I am doing it this way so that I can have a bit more creative license. I mean, sometimes I am feeling creative. And I need an outlet. This is just the sort of thing that will help me out. It's like a blank slate every week. An empty canvas for me. Yeah.
So yeah. I'm going to see Sting in LA instead of Vegas. Everybody who entered my contest was pretty much just like "well, I'd like to go if I won, but I can't so I'm entering but I'm not really entering". But that's cool. I'm going to the show with Emi. She was a spot-op for the Frank O'Hara project. She is cool. She loves Sting. And she couldn't find anybody to go with her. We were made for each other. At least in that respect.
I got a postcard today. It was from Lawrence. He was in Florida at the time he sent it. He's probably back in California now.
My classes are so... discouraging right now. I'm taking all lower division classes. I'm in my 5th year. I am sitting in big lecture halls full of freshmen. What the hell am I doing? I need to graduate. So much so that I actually turned down a number of stage management jobs. So that I can supposedly concentrate on my school work. Hah. We'll see how that works out.
So guess this edition is not particularly creative or anything. No black and white pictures or anything like that. But you know. I'm not a Visual Arts major like Cami. She does cool stuff. Yesterday I re-learned how to play Gilbert O'Sullivan's Alone Again (Naturally) on the guitar. A very depressing song, yes, but quite therapeutic to sing and play. I don't know what else to talk about. I am sleepy. I am going to sleep. The time stamp I put on this entry is wrong. It's actually 3:15am on Wednesday.
Desormais nous sommes trois, lui toi et moi.

esterday, the CAPE book finally came out. Only three weeks late. Oh well. They
are on sale now, and the cover looks really nifty. We actually hired an
outside guy to do it, this guy that Scott knows. So, if you go to UCSD,
look for it at the UCSD Bookstore! Only 
$2, what a steal! The product of an entire summer's worth of work for me.
Get all the info on all your classes and professors, and more great art,
humor and alcoholism than you can shake a stick at!
Henry rented Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace the video game. I played it until like 4:30am. It's not even that good. They make you do all these really stupid tasks. It's not even that fun. But man, something about it makes me keep wanting to play it. Maybe it is that cool sound it makes when you draw your light saber. But it's probably more because running around a castle with a virtual Natalie Portman at your virtual side is as close to the real Natalie Portman as I'll ever get.
So yesterday I was hanging out in the CAPE office and this lost looking girl comes wandering in. She needs to know how to get to the Chinese Studies Department office. Her class got changed or somethign like that. She was this really cute chinese girl. And she was diggin' me so I like helped her out and stuff. But I wasn't expecting much to come of it so once I went and showed her how to get there I was just gonna be like "good luck" and send her on her way.
But then she stopped me and was like "I didn't catch your name..." so we exchanged names but not much else cuz you know, she was like on a hurry. But she was very cute and something about the way she spoke and presented herself was really sexy even though she is one of those more girly cute types. I didnt' get her number or anything, but I am pretty sure I'll see her again. I know where her class is, and it's right down the hall from my office. All I gotta do is make sure I'm around there at the right time, and then I'm sure another opportunity will arise. Oh yeah. Her name is Jessica. And if, by some chance, Jessica (whatever your last name is), you are reading this, yes I am talking about you.
1:30am
ndeed, it is technically Friday, but since I haven't been to sleep yet, it is still Thursday to me, and thus, it's still Thursday on my update. So I spent a lot of my time today working on updating the CAPE website. I haven't put it up yet because it ain't done, but it looks cool.
The being a theatre major at UCSD is kinda like being in high school all over again. The major is very small, there are only about 100 people in it. Which means ever class you take, you are surrounded by people you know. You've taken classes with them before, or you've worked on shows with them or whatever. And just like high school, rumors brew and word travels fast.
So I found out tonight that Trista actually reads this thing. Hi Trista. How embarrassing, especially considering some of the things I say about her. Well that will be enough for tonight. It's 1:30 and I'm actually sleepy already. This is definitely an opportunity I must seize!

he new CAPE website is up. I've been working on it all day. You can find it at http://cape.ucsd.edu/ and see the product of all my labor. Lawrence is on his way down from OC right now. We're gonna skate later tonight. It will be good for me to do something active after sitting here at my desk for all of today.
3:15am, saturday but still friday to me
arthquake!! It was really long. And really rolling, and very mild here in San Diego. I just knew that it had to be a huge earthquake someplace else. I got worried about my family because you know, so I called them up. And I talked to my mom. She was okay, but I was right, it was huge up there. But she's okay, and so is my sister, and that's good.
So I'm listening to AM talk radio. There are all these wimpy San Diegans who are so freaked out. It was so not bad here. But it was long. I guess. But person after person calling in "yeah, I felt that, it was rolling, and I jumped out of bed" blah blah blah, the same thing the last 50 people said.
I had just gotten back home from skating with Lawrence and then going to El Cotixan with Lawrence and Mimi, so I wasn't sleeping yet. Maybe if I was sleeping I wouldn't haven't felt it, you know, with my water bed and all.
