Work rant
I was thinking about how my paycheck tomorrow is going to be less than 100 dollars, and I realized how ridiculous it is for me to be working at Redmond Town Center. My pay was docked from what I made at Southcenter, and I don’t make a quarter the commission I used to. Although RTC is pretty closeknit and the kids who come in are cool (most of the time), I need the chaos that Southcenter...
Aww, Simon on the radio... →
Everyone go listen to him on the UW radio station, it’s his first show. Just click “listen” on the left side of the navigation bar.
Glorious.
I got my hands on the new Man Down Medic demos.. Aside from the fact that “Lean Close” sounds like it is about to blow out my speakers, they are great. Great great. Super great. They sound better than the songs they recorded at the 50 studios they went to for their last album, and they recorded these at their house. Well, they have a studio in their house so my argument doesn’t...
I've been wanting to write for a while...
I just don’t know where to begin.

A simple equation.
Kelly going to 100k + three days of missed class = 13 and a half hours of schoolwork on Thursday
DAMNIT!
Listen. Man Down Medic - Lean Close →
100k... the story ends.
WOW. Last night was freakin INSANE. After my entry last night I got ready and put my pot leaf lei on my head, and everyone from Southcenter came over to get ready. Chris and Patrick ended up not wearing their shirts, and Brad gave them both some pretty ridiculous sharpie tattoos. I wish I had photos of them, but I am sure they will surface sometime soon. Anyway, remember we are in Colorado and it...
100k update
Well, if you have seen my past couple of posts then it’s probably pretty obvious that I am in Colorado right now. It’s the crazy Zumiez 100k celebration and holy shit I am having a hard time keeping up! I got up at 4 AM yesterday to catch my plane, and I think we got to the resort at 3 PM… And since then it’s been a nonstop party. Everyone here is really cool and it feels...

DISCLAIMER
Last.fm automatically imported my music from the past week and apparently Britney Spears was the number one artist. I am just PUTTING IT OUT THERE that my iPod is played at work and Britney Spears has a tendency to be selected a lot of the time, and every time I plug the pod into my computer it automatically scrobbles whatever was played.
JUST SAYIN.

Summary of the past few days...
Well, school starts up again on Monday and that means I will probably be on my computer a lot more than I was over break. I’ve been working a lot and pretty much just trying to hang out as much as possible without feeling like too much of a sloth… which includes watching Wall-e almost every night. Very nice.
I got a Canon 50d on Monday… I’ve played with it a little bit,...
