Oye, nights of DotA leave my head a little funny feeling. Haha… was fun, guys. =) It is rare that we get full 5v5 games (that aren’t on Battle.net with strangers)… it was pretty cool. We had Andrew and Jen connect from Florida and play too. Hope we weren’t too mean to you, Jen. =)

I was listening to my Andrew Approved iPod as we played DotA and it was quite amusing battling it out listening to Celine Dion and the like. Haha… your heart will not go on!!

Listen to her howlin’ roar

Beggin’ you to touch and go

Ride into the Danger Zone” - Kenny Loggins

I feel busy nowadays. For a while after I started working, I would just be insanely tired after work and didn’t feel like doing anything (even playing WoW, which is why I stopped originally). Now, I’ve adjusted to the working life and have been filling up my post-work hours with various activities (from small groups to website dev to exercising, etc.). Whew. I think I like the feeling of being generally busy, but not swamped. Makes me feel like I’m doing something… productive. Haha.

Another thing that I’ve been enjoying is living close to my sister. She cooks for me sometimes and other times I just go raid her fridge. =D It’s a nice hang out spot to get away from the usual too, which is refreshing sometimes. Just wanted to say thank you, sister, and I’ve enjoyed being able to drop by often. =)

The beginning/end of this song reminds me of the animated Justice League intro/theme song:

“Let me know that I’ve done wrong
When I’ve known this all along
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you

Tell me all that you’ve thrown away
Find out games you don’t wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know

I’ll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don’t tell anyone or you’ll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret” - All-American Rejects

And with that, I’m going to say the next chunk of lyrics I post will not be All-American Rejects, haha.

What’s that I hear on the horizon? Ahh, the thunderous sounds of Defense of the Ancients. Seems like we’re going to have a rather large partay tonight. ;)

“OHHH MY HOMIES!!!!”

Okay, so I’m stupid. Yeah yeah. lol

Yesterday, I went running and the pain in my shin was kinda gone while I was jogging, and I felt like I had the energy to do a bit of sprinting, so despite knowing I probably shouldn’t because my shin probably wasn’t fully okay yet, I did it anyways. Haha… now I think I’m going to have to take a rather extended break from running/jogging because it’s hurting quite a bit more now and even when I’m not using it (like when I’m sitting). Oh, but that sprint sure did feel nice.

Edit: Hey, the pain’s subsided a bit, maybe I’ll run today! (haha, j/k). After listening to them on Angell’s Xanga a while back, I’ve been listening to a decent amount of All-American Rejects. I kinda like how they sound. shrug =)

“Is there anybody out there?
That wakes up with a bitter taste?
It’s a king that we put up there
And he’s a short way to fall from grace
It’s slowly filling upward.
You can stand but you have no ground.
I hear it from the lost words.
They say it’s time that you lost your crown.” - All-American Rejects

As Van requested… haha…

In about a year from now, I will be 24, and able to… uhh… I don’t know what happens when you hit 24.

In about two years from now, I will be 25, able to rent a car at all places and have my car insurance drop in cost (at least, that’s what I hear).

In about three years from now, I will be married.

In about four years from now, I will have five kids.

In about five years from now, I will have eight grandchildren.

In about six years from now, I will have ten kids.

In about seven years from now, I will have 60 grandchildren.

In about eight years from now, I will rule the world!!!

Locking keys in your car can put you in a bad mood rather quickly. =/

About a year ago, Van became a Christian.

About two years ago, I got my first DSLR.

About three years ago, apparently not much happened.

About four years ago, I tried to watch My Sassy Girl and removed the ability for other people to post on OliverWEB.

About five years ago, the password was removed from OliverWEB and uh… I guess Chad made his site.

About six years ago, Wes made his first post on OliverWEB.

About seven years ago, OliverWEB.

Wow… seven years.

So, Google buys YouTube, eh? I was kinda hoping Yahoo! would buy it. I’ve kinda been rooting for the underdog search engine for a while (even though I don’t use it) out of my fondness of flickr and general positive attitude for del.icio.us.

Oh… I’m hungry, that’s all I’m going to say for now… must find food…

Edit: My shin is still hurting. It’s alright until a mile or so, after that it starts to hurt a decent amount with every step. I wonder when it will go away… I want to run a 5k. =(

Oh yeah, and I feel really sorry for this kid. Haha… that guy is going to be made fun of for a while.

“Did you think that I would cry
On the phone?
Do you know what it feels like
Being alone?
I’ll find someone new

Swing, swing, swing
From the tangles of
My heart is crushed By a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again?” - All-American Rejects

Yesterday, I was playing with my camera in my room trying to take pictures of myself (which is a little harder than it seems, sometimes, haha) and this was the only one I think turned out ok. I’m getting a little shaggy… haha.

I heard music coming from across the hall and poked my head in. Wes has gifted me with a “tune” now that he is supposed to play whenever I enter the room. Sweet!

Chad and Nancy were also there listening to Wes…

And then later, we had a little chat session in Van and I’s room. Here is Sam in all his glory (well, ok… not all):

And the night wouldn’t be complete without some hot Indian action:

This picture looks like I was beheaded…

As promised, here’s a pink picture. Haha…

That is all. =)

“I fell in love again
all things go, all things go
drove to Chicago
all things know, all things know
we sold our clothes to the state
I don’t mind, I don’t mind
I made a lot of mistakes
in my mind, in my mind” - Sufjan Stevens
