Kind of pissed I wasted the nicest day all month sleeping off a hangover.

It's lovely here in Halifax too but I slept in to 2 and then played Battlefield for a few hours... so at least you have an excuse.

It's extremely nice out here, and I only just woke up at 12pm, but I'm actually going out to do something for once. That's if this girl can figure out where she wants to go take photos with her new camera in Vancouver...

25 degrees Celsius here. Too windy to ride comfortably though.

Tomorrow is gonna be 30 degrees but I'll be stuck in classes all day.

It's 5 degrees and it's as warm as I want it to be.

I'm really disappointed by this year's winter. I want a good blizzard and snow that stays for weeks.

CR, have you seen 5'9 do a show before? He's doing an "intimate show" 100ppl max, debating going.

Never have, but based on his voice and flow he is probably pretty intense live.

I wanted to go to Royce tonight but I've got two midterms tomorrow, bummer. It's an absolutely gorgeous day today but I'm sick, think I'll just go for an easy pedal.

Lol no. I'm pretty sure this chick has a boyfriend (or girlfriend, I'm not 100% sure on this one). She's also a wee bit older then I at like 25... But she just got a new camera, and wants me to help her out, so I am. Plus, she is a promoter and music manager, so I'm using this as a way to network and help out my future.

So one of my little nerd habits is collecting/playing old video games. I bought this game probably about 2 years ago, Earthbound. If you don't know the game, its Ness from Super Smash Bros, his game on Super Nintendo. I bought it for 50 bucks. Then bought the box for 50 about a year later. Its always been a pretty damn pricey game, sounds crazy for some cardboard right? Well I found another copy on Kijiji about 3 months ago, complete copy(box manual game and cardboard insert). Caught it when it was up for 15 minutes, texted him right away and picked it up 15 minutes later. I spent 160. Think I'm crazy yet? Well with all this stuff, I took the stuff in best condition and kept it for myself, then sold off the shittier condition cartridge and box for 180. Positive 20 bucks. So all in all, I bought my copy for 80. Check what it goes for on ebay, straight auction:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item35b94e35c1&item=230742177217&nma=true&pt=Video_Games_Games&rt=nc&si=Z5VwQxMp7pxgPf8eXO5bjZi1GA8%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Pretty ridiculous, as I'd NEVER pay that much for the game. Its fun, but wtf? If my games keep going up in price as they have been lately, its gonna be ridiculous. I've put like 700 probably into it, and its worth many many times that amount. At this point I'm thinking I'll just sell it off when I need a down payment on a house.

f*ck there is no working N64, game boy or SNES emulators for OSX, only Nestopia, which kinda blows.

It is 22 here in Santa Cruz and probably 25ish at my house with a little wind and barely any clouds. So much for all the rain that was supposed to be coming down.

In other words, it's really f*cking nice out. I may even wear shorts tomorrow. First time this year that I'll be outta the house in shorts. It's been all pants everything, reverse Action Bronson.

Stoked to come home to find 2 roomies doing the dishes, I told them I cleaned all the moldy food out of the fridge and they shut up and realized.
