Update and Innovate

Ok, so it's been way too long between posts. Here's what's happened up till now:

1. Left mom and dad in micronesia
2. Came through Guam to Nagoya to Honolulu
3. Spent the past week apt/job hunting (minimum success with both)
4. Watched Rocky Balboa tonite

That's the jist of it and by my short numerical list you can tell that I haven't had much time to sit down and write something whiney. Maybe that's better right? Some tidbits about the moment i'm in right now while they're fresh in my mind:

- I had some starbucks before the movie so i could stay up till 3 AM this sunday morning to pick up my cousin from his graveyard shift job down in Waikiki.

- Rocky Balboa was good. I'm an old school fan and i went in there w/ hopes that the movie delivered on. Nice end (end, right?) to the saga.



- I'm on the lanai (balcony) of my cousin's apt here in Honolulu at 2:35 AM and the weather is perfect. I come out here every morning and every night just to breathe and remind myself I'm actually here.

- I'm also on the lanai to "borrow" someone's wireless connection. Thanks again 05B412127445!

- I can't stop listening to this John Legend track "save room".



- I miss my parents. Doesn't feel like Christmas at all.


More later i guess, i have to roll now.

God will give me Justice



Those are the words inscribed on the walls of Edmond Dantes’ prison cell in the Chateau D’if. The irony in this is that halfway through the DVD, when the well-laid plan began to unfold, my laptop choked up and couldn’t continue the movie. A powerbook problem? Thankfully no, it was just a problem with the DVD. I bought it on sale at the walmart in Honolulu so I guess this is what I get. But God will give me closure! Unless I threw out the receipt, which I think I did. Curses.

I’ve seen the movie before and I’ve read the book, so it’s not like the story was ruined but I still wish I could’ve finished it. My little private movie showings on the 12” screen w/ the ipod headphones are one of the few things that I enjoy lately. Sucks when even that doesn’t work out.

1:51 AM…yeah, at least this part hasn’t changed. Awake at an ungodly hour staring at a monitor. I watched the farewell DVD from my friends again. I tear up like a little bitch every time I see it. My friends are the best.

I miss them so.

Roll Bounce



Fun movie. Good music. I remember when i saw this in the theater with my friends. I wish we actually made it out to a skating rink.

Did they even have any around my area? Does that even matter since I don't live there anymore? And also I can't skate? No, these things dont' matter. I'mma learn up so we can tear it up when i finally make it back there. If i make it back there?

Solid.
