Wait, wait, wait. Full stop.
Say WHAT, USA? I have stuff I have to do on Tuesday nights so I can’t watch White Collar. And I hate ads—I use adblocking on everything because I can’t stand how messy the website looks with ads. I even hate ads in Youtube. But I can deal with ads on your website to watch white collar and burn notice. Even so, you stopped posting episodes. Why?...

So in the first week of school, I have learned a couple things.
1. My Ethics class boasts office hours at Espresso Royale, half an hour to an hour before class.
2. Physics is not a class. It’s a quiz show.
3. Tea addictions do not go away quietly—I’ve had likely more than 10 pots of tea in the two days I’ve been back for the weekend.
Haha, time to start my second week!
Update of Sorts
Wow. 2 months, huh? I’m pretty inconsistent. Will try to update more often.
So anyway, I was reading an article on arstechnica (http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2011/01/iosafe-full-metal-jacket.ars) and I immediately thought, “Wow, to get an ioSafe titanium drive inside a Panasonic Toughbook would be absolutely amazing. It is too bad it’s combustible. I’ve seen some...

今天又是禮拜五. 又一個沒什麼睡得一個禮拜. 可是, 我室友這個周末不再! 葉! 他不再覺得好輕松哦.沒睡也覺得還可以. 還是想睡,但是就覺得等一下會睡得很好.西西. 好, 下次再說吧! 掰掰
哇! 我很久沒寫東西了! 我記得我說我下次會用中文寫. 好難哦.我現在再靠電腦幫我選字. 上赤寫的時間到現在發現了很多東西.重台灣來的朋友已經回去了. 我暑假想要他們過來玩. 可是我也想回台北學中文. 那我想看到他們.如果我在台灣, 他們在美國就看不到了! 啊, 我知道了! 還是他們寒假來吧! ＝Ｐ
那之外, 已經開學了. 今年的課陳好難哦! 比去年難道三到四倍! 都沒什麼時間跟朋友玩. 唉呦….
下次在說吧! (看我還活著嗎….)

So I haven’t posted a while—I’ve been pretty busy. I mean, there are two Taiwanese kids over at my house. For my sake, I’m going to give them English names. Let’s call them Kyle and Will. They are twins. So, they’ve dragged me to watch baseball. And I’ve been going every possible day. It’s fun. I’ve been addicted. It’s good to see Taiwan...
You know what would make me like iOS4 more? If there was an option to turn multi-tasking off. Even though it died, and I had to plug it into my computer again to charge, the multi-tasking programs were still in “memory”. It was fully charged when I went to bed. 12 hours later, a third of the battery charge is gone.
Apparently the new comex jailbreak is out @ jailbreakme.com. The only question I have is why do you do it from the iOS device itself?
Oh, and thank you very much to comex and the rest of the iPhone Dev Team who helped get this out.

So summer has finally started! The test to get here was awful, but it’s here! I was picking through my backpack and found an old comic I drew in math class. I think we were talking about the mx”+cx’+kx=f(t) equation. He made some joke about stopping a car. Unfortunately, I don’t have a scanner but here’s the gist:
Two men are in a car. They have to stop but the...
Spain wins the world cup! Congratulations Spain. Go Iniesta!
Rock the Era was incredible. However, I did miss the game: Germany is in third place, beating Uruguay 3-2.
Spain really turned around after losing to Switzerland. They beat Germany. Go Spain! Beat Netherlands! Rah rah rah!
So I am disappointed Uruguay lost to the Netherlands yesterday, however I still do not think they have what it takes to win the cup
Sorry, keep thinking I updated. Paraguay did really good against Spain too. I remember thinking, “if only Paraguay can score one goal they might have it”. But Spain broke down Paraguay’s defense and scored. After that, Paraguay went to practically full offense and their defense fell apart. They were very lucky to not concede more goals. But good job both teams!
Wow so Germany totally kicked Argentina’s butt! The score was 4-0. Honestly, I thought Argentina would do a lot better (though I was rooting for Germany). Good job Germany!
Uruguay beat Ghana in PKs
Brazil lost.
So in three days, I’ve finished reading the entire Love Hina series. I recommend it.

Japan lost to Paraguay and Portugal lost to Spain.
Mexico scored so the score ended up being 3-1 Argentina.
Sorry I forgot to post! I thought I posted! At any rate, I didn’t watch the South Korea v Uruguay game, but I’m sort of disappointed South Korea lost. The US v. Ghana game was even more so. I thought US was going to clinch it 2-1, or at least get to PKs. Too bad. US has been really lucky but I guess luck only gets you so far. I was talking with some friends about the Argentina v....
So Japan beat Cameroon, Netherlands beat Cameroon, Slovakia beat Italy, and New Zealand tied Paraguay on Thursday. Today, Brazil tied Portugal, Ivory Coast beat North Korea, Spain beat Chile, and Switzerland tied Honduras. Here are the number of correct wins I guessed for each group:
Group A: 0
Group B: 4
Group C: 3
Group D: 2
Group E: 6
Group F: 1
Group G: 3
Group H: 3
Over all I got...
So, I’m eating dinner before soccer and I thought I’d share a conversation I had with a friend:
Mixolydian Muse: REMPO DA FIAR LORD HELP MEH. I HAZ PROBLEM Mimi: ? =o Mixolydian Muse: I CAN’T FIND THE TABLE Mimi: =o Mixolydian Muse: RESCUE ME! Mimi: did you check under the fridge? Mixolydian Muse: =O No. Mixolydian Muse: … Mixolydian Muse: OMG, THERE IT IS. THANK YOU...
Groups C and D finished today. Australia bested Serbia, Germany bested Ghana, US bested Algeria, and England bested Slovenia. It’s nice to see wins instead of ties for a change (my bracket doesn’t have ties!) Group C first seed is the US, second is England. Group D first seed is Germany, second is Ghana. I’m surprised England pulled through, but I’m glad. Still makes my...
Last day for groups A and B. Uruguay bested Mexico and South Africa bested France in Group A. Argentina bested Greece in group B, but Nigeria and South Korean tied. So in Group A, first seed is Uruguay and second seed is Mexico. Group B first seed is Argentina, and second seed is North Korea. So two of my round of 16 predictions were already wrong: France and Greece didn’t make it. Group C...
Sorry had a busy day and I kind of collapsed in my bed. So, wow. Portugal beat North Korean 7-0. Chile also beat Switzerland. Spain returned with a 2-0 victory against Honduras. So I was right two out of three again.
I got the Brazil v. Ivory Coast and the Slovakia v. Paraguay games right, but got the Italy v. New Zealand game wrong. Why does it seem that every good team is not doing as well as it should?
Oh, and I double checked my old jersey. I am again Red Team’s number 7.
World Cup Correct Guesses: 13/29.
I forgot to mention that as far as my Soccer League goes, I got a red jersey again, Bagger Dave’s team. I also think I got the same number, number 7. I’m going to have to check my old jersey sometime this week.
Sorry, there was a bad storm and I didn’t have internet last night. Yesterday’s results: Germany lost to Serbia, Slovenia tied with the US, and England tied with Algeria. Today’s results: Netherlands beat Japan, Ghana and Australia tied, and Denmark beat Cameroon. That makes 26 games. I got 11 right. I think the only Group I have 100% right is Group E. Hope that continues.
Well, two for three again. France lost to Mexico, but Argentina beat South Korea and Greece beat Nigeria.
Wrong again. Chile did beat Honduras but Spain lost to Switzerland. That should not have happened. Uruguay also beat South Africa. Meh.
How did Spain lose to Switzerland?
Wrong 2/3 today. Brazil won (and North Korea should not have scored), but both the Ivory Coast v Portugal game and the New Zealand v. Slovakia game ended up as ties. I’m 6/14.
No! North Korean should not have scored!
Another mixed day.
Correct:
Netherlands beat Denmark
Japan beat Cameroon
Incorrect:
Italy and Paraguay tied.
I was right: Slovenia beat Algeria and Germany completely dominated Australia, but Serbia lost. 3/8.
I’m one for five. Argentina beat Nigeria. I can’t believe England did not beat USA. That was a horrible mistake by Green. Oh well.
USA should not have scored!
I still need to watch the replay of the second half of the South Afriva v. Mexico game I skipped out on since I had to go to class, and the first 80-85 minutes of the France v. Uruguay game.
On a non-football note, Full Metal Alchemist (FMA) is over. I’m going to really miss it. That last chapter was a blast. If you haven’t read FMA, I highly recommend it!
So I’m already 0 for 2. Mexico and South Africa tied at 1-1, while France and Uruguay ended up at 0-0.
