searching for a target digital camera!!

not just a digital camera..well..i still call it a camera but i want a digital VIDEO camera so i can record stuff you know like one of those hand held things. so thats my goal for the end of this year is to get one of those (since i need some time to build up some money). but anyways i guess i gotta start looking around though so i can see whats out there and what i want because god knows it takes me a zillion years to make even the smallest decision! why do i need a digital video cam all the sudden? so i can record stuff at family events and when i go out to visit frank, and also so i can record all the little things my precious baby arisu does =) i already record her a little bit but i havent uploaded yet. theyre not very good quality though since its from my regular digital camera (which, is pretty old when you think about how fast technology is moving these days). anyways this is a mental note to myself and thats all. i couldn’t really sleep so i came on here to write this in case i forget about wanting it in the morning lol. and also, i left my laptop on and i hate that humming noise.

Nice Weather Reminds Me of Band.

Its true. Nice, cool, fall/winter weather reminds me of marching band. Sadly enough it was the only reason you’d ever see me outside during high school.Â? And I was outside a lot because of band.Â? Normally I would consider cold weather with the sun out VERY good weather.Â? Because in band we would rarely have any excuse to go inside during practice. Unless it was a state law or a school rule about something, we were out there in the wind, rain, and even though our fingers almost fell off from frostbite we were still out there every morning at 6 or so.Â? Anyways in the midst of missing my flute playing I have decided to buy myself a new one and continue with my learning.Â? However, the model that I want is a tad bit pricey.Â? I don’t know the exact price yet, but some bastard is selling it for 3k or so on ebay so I will guestimate that buying it from a store will be very pricey also.Â? Why not order it online?Â? Well, I might order it online if I find a price and place that i can trust.Â? I like to buy expensive things in person though so that I can check it.Â? And there is no way I am going to spend that amount of money online cause its just too risky and there are too many crazies on the internet these days.

Right now its 1:30 a.m. and I can’t sleep.Â? This is a very, very bad thing too.Â? I’m thinking that maybe it is because I have passed that ‘point’ where I just won’t get sleepy for a while.Â? This is very annoying and the timing couldn’t be worse because I really have a lot of shit to do this week and I don’t want to be knocked out asleep tomorrow for 6 hours in the middle of the day and then have a hard time going to bed tomorrow.Â? So since I am awake now pasted the point of no return I will have to stay up all the way until tomorrow night. And hopefully I will be able to go to bed at 9 and not pass my ‘point’ again- which is highly possible since I will probably get sleepy in the evening time tomorrow since I am up late tonight.Â? Well anyways, I am going to bed now to try and sleep.

My Glass Collection

While brainstorming about what to buy my friend Chau for her birthday I decided I could get her some nice martini glasses since I can’t exactly buy her a drink yet (she turned 21). Well while looking at some online I decided that I’m going to start my own glass collection. It’ll mostly be martini glasses so far but I’ll probably get some nice shot glasses and other types too. I also got two of the same kind I bought her so now I have two to begin with. Of course when I decided I was going to start my little collection I didn’t think about how expensive these were going to be. I mean 15 dollars for a cup isn’t exactly the greatest deal in the world but I guess they’re nice and I like them so oh well! And 15 dollars is about the cheapest martini glasses that I’ve seen around (and there aren’t a lot of them around that are that decent of a price). The one that I really really want is 80 dollars but I’ll have to save up a bit for it and get it later.

Tonight I went to Phat Ky which is on Wilcrest and 59 and almost an hour away from me (less on the way home since there was little to no traffic). Anyways the food was alright but I was a little dissapointed with the noodles since those I would consider an “easy” dish I sorta expected they would do better than that. I after eating, taking a lot of pictures, making kissing gestures at Vivian from the next table, letting Chau sit in my lap while being groped by Vivian and making WAY too many jokes about boobs we finally got the bill and took an extra 15 minutes to decide how to split it. They decided to go to a karaoke place afterward but i went home instead. As soon as I was close to my house Chau calls to tell me she didn’t go either so that sucks cause she didn’t get to eat her cake since they brought it there.

As for my little project well so far I’ve made some progress with the main template for the site and also the sign up page works and everything adds to the database correctly which is suprising. I think tomorrow I’m going to set up the databse for the content and also make some ‘fake’ content too so I can test on. I found Lipsum.com (I think thats the address I don’t remember exactly right now) which is this website that I’m gonna use to make some of my fake content (which will all be the same except different lengths and titles so I can tell if the content is what I want it to be or not. Besides that I haven’t gotten too much further cause I’ve also been reading for my biology practical on Monday. I think I’ll do okay but I haven’t really spent enough time looking at the slides so hopefully reading and looking at the pictures in the book will let me still do okay. Well I’m tired out now so I think I’ll go to bed and wake up early tomorrow.
