(Belated) Welcome to 2011. Last year, one of my resolution was to blog more, but eventually, by the summer (May, June, July) the resolution just crumbled apart. A lot has happened, but most of the time, I simply just feel like leaving a Facebook status would be sufficient enough. Until now (I guess). I just realized my status are getting longer and longer and fear it would not fit in the status box. It’s just becoming like the blog that I wish. This year, I will try once again to pick up this blog and keep it going. Although I must say, I should do some clean up (i.e.: the categories, photo update?, etc.), but as that happen (or not happen), I will keep on blogging. I hope to make it a daily thing, but I probably wouldn’t have much to say anyways. Can’t guarantee anything.
It’s March~! Man, time has really flew by now hasn’t it. Just two months earlier, it felt like it was dragging on forever. But now, now it’s flying by almost instantly. Midterms, studying, homework, starting to prepare for my return to California (yes, there is around two months left until I leave, but what’s wrong with a bit of early preparation?), and lots of video games. So yeah, I have around two months left until I leave this quite beautiful place called Hawai’i. I learned a lot, it was all quite interesting. Especially my Hawaiian study class, oh that is an amazing class. This semester, I haven’t really done anything exciting or “fun”. Didn’t really go out nor explore. A lot of just staying in my dorm room, working, studying, playing video games; really, just trying to past time. I don’t know whether I will post another blog this month or not. We’ll see.
I REALLY WANT TO ATTEND ONE OF THE RED STATE U.S.A EVENT, AND WATCH KEVIN SMITH’S LATEST FILM RED STATE AND HIS Q&A~~~!!!! Too bad, I’m kinda stuck here in Hawai’i.
Yeah, so I forgot to mention last time that I’m back on Twitter.
Twitter name eugenechu. I don’t know how often I will tweet about my life (no, I don’t have a smartphone to keep things updated), but occasionally I will retweet some twits by other people I follow. So yeah. On Twitter again.
It’s been awhile again. Trying my best to keep up with the updates. Yet it doesn’t really help with the fact that I’m massively playing video game almost all day.
I’ve recently bootcamped my Mac. Now I’m just stuck on Window 7, playing various games that’s only available on Windows and not Mac (via Steam that is), such as Uber Entertainment’s Monday Night Combat, or Sims 3. Lot’s of Sims 3 actually. Also trying to beat Mirror’s Edge, while chillin’ with Beat Hazard and Audiosurf.
Well, besides video games, there’s class and stuff.
On a brighter note, I thinking of starting a webcomic. Well, not quite sure how that’s going to turn out. Especially since I’ll probably as for donations to keep the site up and sell stuff, not sure how that’s going to go down with the taxes and all that.
And coincidentally, this update on Valentines Day. No I didn’t plan this, it just happened so. So Happy Valentines Day?
You know how last post, I mention how it basically feels like an eternity for me right now? Well, I was too quick to judge. It’s actually moving a bit faster than I thought it was going. It’s almost February now. Although it’s only been what, 3 weeks or so, watching the month goes by (not week), made everything feel a lot faster. Either that or I’ve been too addicted to video game and basically nonstop playing it when I actually have work to do and stuff to get done.
A week barely passed by and already I feel like it’s been forever!!! Perhaps it’s simply just because I have a 7:30 class, and I have to wake up really early. I don’t mind waking up so early and getting things done, but now, I just feel like I’m dragging my day out. I probably should take a few more classes or get a job to fill up my day. Having such long, dragged out days is just so annoying. I simply have too much time on my hand. Perhaps I can start a project to keep me busy.
The true, I’m never a huge fan of hip hop/rap genre music. I just recently get into it, and even then, I don’t really have a favorite one. Well, that’s a lie. I only listen to to artist (yeah, I should expand. I’m working on it): 1) Kid Cudi, and 2) Adam WarRock. Who’s Adam WarRock you say, well:
“Adam WarRock began rapping over a decade ago during his time as an Ohio State University student. Now the Internet’s foremost comic book nerdcore rapper, he has gained a following through his tireless song production, biting sense of humor, and sharp eye for geek and pop cultural topics to skewer in hip hop form.”
Really fun to listen to his work. Especially if you are into nerdy stuff like comics and superheros and stuff like that. I personally love his TrackLogs about webcomics and superheros. He uploads TrackLogs on his blog and those are totally free. So you should check him out. He also have a single out call “Ira Glass” and an album call “The War for Infinity”. Go check out his stuff, listen to it, download it, buy it, enjoy it.
Now that I’m in Hawaii for college, things aren’t exactly what I expected; I believed that I can start a new life, get new friends and keeping on with life. It was awesome during the first two months or so (maybe even actually the first couple of weeks actually), but now it’s different. It’s been at least two months that I’m here. I haven’t exactly made as much friends I wanted to, nor have I “enjoy” myself as much. No parties (“parties”). Only one rave. Worked too much. Too much time in my room. Never explored.
I do miss a bundle of things right now. Ironically, I miss the cold(er) weather during these Fall/Winter season. I actually want cold Fall/Winter, even if the weather is freaken bipolar. I was window shopping the other day and basically, all the stores were selling useless winter wear for my location. The clothes looks awesome; I do want, but I wouldn’t have a chance to wear them and it would go to a waste. I miss my friends back home. They all seems to be having lots of fun and actually enjoying college. Truthfully, I do miss my mom and sister. Yeah, I guess you can say that I’m really homesick right now. I just don’t feel right being here. I don’t feel like I belong. It’s not worth it to continue staying here if I stay feeling like this right? Right.
I am regretting a couple of choices that I made as well. I regret choosing a roommate who sleeps past 12 a.m. I will leave that rant for another day. I know it will get ugly and long. I also sort of regret leaving California right. Probably because I’m homesick right now, but I think I could have had more fun back home instead. Okay let’s say I didn’t regret leaving California, well I regret not putting myself out there during the first week or two of college to make friends (or even now actually to make more friends). I sit around and feel alone all the time actually. I’m a human too; I need social contact as much as the guy next to me.
Well, with all that said, I’m ready come back during Winter Break. I really can’t wait to come back. I wish Thanksgiving Break was longer, but sadly, it’s only 4 days. Could have been at least a week, then I’ll consider coming back. Now, I just have one month left until I go back, and I really can’t wait.
So you got a webcam? Got some free time? Want to have some fun and get involved in a music video? Well, you’re in luck. The band C-mon & Kypski is having a project where you can take a picture of yourself for their music video “More is Less”. Over 24000 users have already contributed and they update their video every hour. Check out their website, their video is there, it’s just pure awesome!
Recently, I’ve been listening A LOT more to rap/hip-pop/R&B. Something that I’m not a huge audience of. Seriously, Kid Cudi is like an addiction to me right now. He is awesome. Mash him up with an awesome dj, Steve Aoki, and you just got yourself probably the best Pursuit of Happiness there can ever be.
