won't you take me to funky town

So yeah here's my post, a little late. ;) Anyway, The semester has ended and I'm enjoying my time off. Summer session starts June 3rd and I go back to work June 1st, so I guess I don't have too much of a break, but I'll make the most of it. So far I've been playing a lot of pool and going out to eat a lot, and I'll probably be doing a lot more of both. I have a load of movies I need to watch and return to Minh, as well as watch all of the movies I've had for a long time and never watched. Needless to say, I have plenty to keep me busy. Aside from all that, I have made it my mission to finish all the sites I've started by the end of the summer. It's my hope that come August I'll have one kick ass portfolio of work that I can show off for potential jobs and whatnot. Seems easy enough, but knowing me it's going to be a big battle to make my August deadline. Hmm, I should probably get to work real soon.

Did I mention I like sushi? Last week I went out to eat sushi at Fujiyama with a couple friends. I was a little worried about it at first because that place used to be Kyoto II, and that's what I wanted but when we got there it became apparent that it was no longer Kyoto II. It looked the same inside and everything, but the menu was way different and they didn't have the food I was really wanting. We tried it anyway and tried most of the sushi on the menu plus some other foods they had. All in all the sushi was wonderful, as noted by our $110 bill (there were 3 of us). Tried a lot of stuff for the first time, including octopus, squid, and sea urchin sushi (blech). The moral of the story: if anyone wants to go eat sushi sometime, hit me up because I'm dying for some more. That, and don't eat sea urchin.

Earlier this week Shawn told me that Edge of Reality, the game company at which he works, was hiring scripters for summer internships and that I should apply. I was kinda hesitant about applying but I figured I may not get an opportunity like this again, so I went ahead and applied. I never heard back from them, so I guess that means it's a no go, heh. Minh applied, interviewed, and I bet will get hired, so that's one more friend who works there that can help me get my foot in the door. >:) Hopefully by that time I'll have finished all my web projects and that'll impress them or anyone enough to hire me for some cool job.

The other day after work, Tim and I went bowling at the Union. It was kinda cool and weird because we were the only people bowling at the time, and it was really quiet in there. I did pretty good the first two games, totally owning Tim in the process. ;) Game 1 I scored 142, game 2 144, and game 3 I scored an embarrassingly low 99, which I attribute to fatigue and the battle damaged ball I was using which had chunks missing out of it (made a cool sound going down the lane though). I mostly blame it on my bowler's thumb, which I get every time I bowl, characterized by the broken blood vessel in my thumb which causes it to swell a little and hurt a lot. Whatever the reason, I want to start bowling more often, so if anyone is interested, drop me a line.

Last night I saw Shrek 2, it was pretty sweet. I didn't care much for the first, so I didn't have much expectations for the second, but I was surprised. The cat, Puss 'n Boots totally stole the show. Go check it out!

Since a lot of people (ok, not a lot, only like 3) have been complaining that I don't post often enough, I'm gonna have 7 days of posts. I'll probably start that Monday unless something suddenly comes up.

All that talk about sushi made me hungry.
