random ramblings

I guess I only work on my website during the summer. Oh well.

Pretty new song by Ne-Yo. I guess it’s already pretty overplayed but I still like it so here it is.

on a different note, i was reminded that i had helped create a video for incoming freshman to UIUC. all you UIUCers should watch the Starting Fresh dvd you guys received. I’m in the “URHnet: Don’t Be Clueless!” video towards the end. i tried to be serious but the lines they gave me were too stupid. anyhow, watch it cuz i dont want you calling me to fix your computer. unless you make me food.

Looking for “superplays” of your favorite old school games?

http://home.comcast.net/~arcthelad/movies.html

What’s a superplay video you ask? Simply put, they either do really really insanely hard crazy stuff (like getting alot of points or never getting hit) or they beat the game really really really really fast. Most of these videos use emulators with save states, played at slow speeds with many glitches but no cheats. No arguments about whether the videos are “real,” these are just people trying to push the limits of the game. I think every video has a torrent for the avi version and also a direct download for emulator replays. Enjoy =)

This morning didn’t go so bad. I’m almost positive I got an A… it’ll be my first in a while heh, but it’s still not good enough. I guess I gotta keep on trusting Him that my next two exams will be even better. I wish I had better vision.

I’ve been waking up pretty early every single day without my alarm even when I don’t have to. I guess that’s what I get for praying that I’d start going to class. I haven’t been able to go on this little sleep since hs. Praise God I guess =p

Yesterday my sg (ISR-GR8!) and CRH 10 got the chance to do special praise during missions weekend and baptism service. Wow, what a priveledge =) The place was packed and the service extra long… I was so tired but man, it was so good to be reminded that God is at work in our campus. You really never know how much you can accomplish… one small nudge might bring someone to Christ a few years down the line.

We [both sg's] ate some wings at night, I forgot from where but they were pretty good. And then CRH 10 decided to challenge us to some DDR hehehe. The challenge didn’t really go through but we had fun. Speaking of which, here’s my old videos. Apparently many people have never seen these. The first bunch are me and my friends, will and ken, glowsticking. Will’s the best one btw. They’re pretty old and I’m not too much better now cuz I stopped practicing but there they are. The older one was really short and really really slow. (I was buzzed that night teehee.) The last video is from the first DDR tourney that I ran. I think we were taking a break or something and I wanted to fill the time and since, being one of the judges, I couldn’t compete, I thought I would show off. I’m still wearing those shoes and I still have those clothes. That was also shortly after the first time I let someone cut my hair too haha. I guess I never really moved my arms that much… it does look kinda goofy but iono I never had balance issues or felt the need to swing my arms wildly. Anyhow, I’m semi-tempted to start playing again but I don’t have good pads. What I really need to do is start working out again. I didn’t even break a sweat in the video… anybody want to be my running/workout buddy? =)

I dropped by George’s Place (a pub in Naperville on Ogden) with Dan to chill with James Wang, Deen and DLo for a bit. To our dismay, you have to be 21+ or accompanied by a parent after 8pm. Maybe next time.

We ventured our way to Jerry’s and stayed for a few hours. Two Jiggly’s are scary. Just look at this… SCARY!! O_O

Anyways, I saw You Got Served sitting on the table and I was reminded of how terrible a portrayal of hip-hop, bboys (aka breakdancers) and battling is shown in the movie. Wade’s crew would NEVER have won that first battle. Biting moves is extremely looked down upon in the hip-hop community and I’m sure as well in the general dancing community. Physical confrontation is also frowned upon, so much, that unnecessary touching will disqualify you in any respected battle. Taunting is commonly accepted as long as it stays on the floor. The idea was to “battle” it out on the dance floor rather than through physical confrontation (though battles usually caused more fights than stopped). Wade’s crew showed absolutely no respect, bit moves and touched way too much; his crew would go nowhere IRL. The “hip-hop” dancing simply turned into bboying at the end of the movie. Hip-hop (dancing) crews don’t battle as far as I know.

Anyways, we chilled for a bit and I asked for color suggestions for my website. I got a suggestion for blue on silver and one for pink and green. My first website was yellow on black and the previous incarnation was white on blue. White bg is too plain and bright and I like mellow colors. I don’t know what to do >_< Suggestions?

edit: i forgot about this pen spinning video

oh damn, i saw this on elliot’s xanga. looks toooooo hot

so i got to watch matrix today yay. it wasnt as bad as lots of people made it out to be. the ending coulda been worked on but eh, what you gonna do when its built up so much like that. but yeah.. it went total DBZ style. i swear, i thought neo was gonna throw a fireball one of those times haha
