Work was a pain. I know I was up until 1 am working with DQY, but it was a blast talking on skype for the first time. :) Much better than AIM. Anyway, if I see another damn shrimp before I have to be back there at 6am tomorrow morning, I will be forced to do something that I may regret.
I'm sort on time but I have started getting my stuff together for "Kalidonic Limelight." 52 episodes should be much easier to deal with than 70 and the quality is much better so I shouldn't have to worry about much filtering. The only thing I'm scared of is the fact that the DVDs are NTSC Interlaced, but at 23.976FPS? WTF? And for some reason, the episodes are only 13-15 minutes long after I rip them? Oooh boy. I hope this is not the beginning of something nasty.
Sorry all you skypers, but I have plans for tonight. Seening my local pals for the first time in three weeks, so if there is a party, I might have to miss it. (Like I will be missed, I'm still a damn NooB, Gah!! >.< Oh well, I catch you all later. I'm on every evening and all day thursday.
Peace out

No massive rant about how society continually contradicts themselves. Just some thoughts on the day.
I was never a big holiday person. Sure on Thanksgiving you have an excuse to make a pig out of yourself, but then comes the afterthought... thank god I got my stomach under control this year. Then there is Christmas. The season I LOVER to HATE!!! You ever see those damn commercials on TV where the family wakes up on Christmas morning and there is a stockpile of gifts under the tree? They usualy end up with one of the warm and fuzzy family dinners similar to thanksgiving in the end. Those things just piss me off. They portray life around these times as one where everyone is happy and that "Peace on Earth" garbage.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a scrooge about it. But I perfer to see things a little more realistically. For instance, I found my first Christmas after my parents got diviorced last october to me one of my most pleasent. Sure there were no gifts except for a giftcard and FLCL vol 1 DVD, but it was just a peacful day where my family didn't bitch or argue about shit like "I didn't want this" or "I told you to get the MOVIE! Not the OVA. I already have this one." My god, sometimes it felt like armageddon was upon us in my house on these two days...
But I am thankful that things have finally started taking a turn for the better. We survivied another Thanksgiving with ease now to make it through Christmas, which I am sure will be another stressless day. So as I sit here with my wine glass in hand (I know I'm only 20 but who cares, my parents offered) I hope you all had a very pleasent Thanksgiving with whoever you chose to share it with.

Final of the day
2006-11-22 19:52:26
Operation Introduction is all put together. I have some clips with severe interlacing problems (I thought I asked for DEINTERLACED FOOTAGE!!!!) I'm sure those two involved will see it when I get the beta around later today. In all, it looks pretty good for a beginner's MEP.
and no one wants to skype me... maybe friday when everyone is back after turkey day. I'll be here. Got nothing better to do since I hate my family.
Peace out for the last time in the journals today. -
Rantastic! Episode 2: This Time, It's personal...
2006-11-22 19:05:32
I was watching Midori Days for the first time today and I noticed one thing, I am almost a copy of Seiji, sans the beating up of gang members and the powerful right hand (I'm a lefty, btw). But one comment made me laugh and sympatize with him. At one point he mentions that he was turned down by 20 girls. Not that bad of a count. But I've been utterly rejected by a good amount. Sadly, most just ingnored me whereas Seiji at least got a reply like "Sorry, but I have a boyfriend," where we all know that is a lie and a half. Nah, I been turned down... lets see... there was Jessica, Mary, Tracey, Courtney, Angelica, Christine S. Christine P, Collette, Jamie, April, Sarah, Katie, Victoria.... namely my entire class in grade school.
Now, this is not gonna be like the rant from a few days ago where I lamented at how much my life sucked. Nope. I'm actually in a good mood today and things are going good. But there are a few things that, as Peter Griffin says, grinds my gears.
To start, ever notice all the people out there in the world who try too hard to fit in? This is the one thing that gets on my nerves most about people. Sure we are all guilty of it at one time or another, but most eventually go back to being themselves. I am okay with those people. It is those who refuse to let their true personalities show and continue to put on a false facade just so people will accept them. I was like this for the longest time. I have always been one of the shyest people many of my friends have ever known. I cannot start a conversation with a guy or a girl to save my life. Therefore, I always need someone to come to me before I talk to them. In a way, though, this can give the false impression that you are a loner who want's nothing to do with anyone, whereas, you legitamatly want to know these people, but they remove themselves from you because you remove yourself. It's a titanic circle forever rolling into itself. I still cannot go up and talk to anyone without them flagging me down first. I've learned that this is the cause of most of my problems from my past rant.
This raises another question. Through popular culture, no matter how fucked up it is, I've noticed that when I comes to that first encounter it is usually the guy who has to wow the girl, but what about what I stated above? Some guys have very little experienc and maybe such a low self-esteem that it is very difficult for them to approach a girl and say that they like them. Hell, I drove my ex up a wall because I would not be the first "I love you" to her. She ended up saying to me on the phone one night while I played GTA Vice City... we see where that one went. We broke up just over a month ago on account of conflicting personalities and she refusing to talk to me about anything and being the queen of indecisivness; though everyone thinks it's because we went out for over two and a half years and she would never give me any. PLEASE...... I'm not that kind of guy so if you happen to hear any of this, it is bullshit. I think with my brain and not my dick unlike many guys these days.
Taking personality into consideration, I have a question to all the females who may stumble upon my journal. I don't want a physical response, but just think about the answer in your mind. Is personality REALLY the one thing that drives you to a guy? Whenever this came up in one of my classes last year, it was always the same thing. Girls want guys with personality. But really, what drives you to stroll over to a guy at a bar or a party and begin talking to him? I can't be their personality since you know nothing about them and anything you might has been told to you through the grapevine and we all know how reliable that is. I never believed that personality crap. If that was the truth, I would have had more than one g/f in my life. I was liked and pretty well known in grade school and a little in high school but I was at an all guy school so that didn't matter to me. So what is it? Think about it.
That's about all I got this installment. I wish all you American folks a Happy Thanksgiving. To anyone who may be traveling tonight, may your trip be a safe one to and from your destination, especially in the North-East with this Nor'easter coming through. Drive slow and don't rush. It is better to be late then not to show up at all.
Till next time
