Yeah, everybody's got a bomb
We could all die any day
But before I'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away

Don't you hate it when an ex looks hotter today than when she/he was with you? Fuck. Sometimes, I really question the choices I've made. I wish I wasn't such an indecisive fuck when it comes to making a long-term relationship committment. The next time a cute, smart girl who is into punk and snowboards says she wants something more than a once-a-weekend screw, I...

So, here's your surreal story of the week. I was walking home from work today - which, by the way, is one of the things I'm so digging about Montreal - and I ran into this girl I used to date. She's a successful photographer who just happens to be bisexual. We used to go to the gay clubs in Montreal so she could trawl...

Well. That temporary mania is over and done with. Back to normal and sticking to resolutions.

I need to raise $28 000 CDN in 19 months. Care to donate to the Send OpticNerve To Graduate School Fund?

Here's some funny shit. My friend told me that one of the Executive Producers at <insert video game company name here>'s Los Angeles studio became furious when...

The ladies are dancing to 'The KKK Took My Baby Away' today.

Wow, two updates in less than 24 hours? I'm downright loquacious. I don't have anything of substance to say, though. I'm just biding my time until I leave on Saturday.

You know, I think many of my beliefs about ethical behaviour were derived from reading comic books. That's either a good or a...

Today, our happy couple is bumping to the rhythm of 'Jungle Boogie'.

Some thoughts:

- Last night, I went to bed and dreamt of blood-stained snow, sort of shot in the style of a Japanese samurai drama. Later, after I had woken up, I found myself rifling through the dumpster of my apartment building.

- People have said this to me while I lived in...

I think today our intrepid young ladies are dancing to 'Vacation' by the Go Gos.

It occurred to me, just now, that the girls in my profile picture are dancing to 'Ladyflash' by The Go! Team.

I went to see my Uncle and Aunt today. I wanted to see them before I left LA. They're both really old, and don't go out much. They regaled me with stories of growing up in the Philippines, how they met, and what they...

I finally got around to seeing 'Brokeback Mountain'. Nice film, though it wasn't as sad as 'Boys Don't Cry', another film which dealt with the theme of life lived in denial. As much as I love the queers, though, I couldn't help but chuckle at the scene where Ennis and Jack make love. It was more hilarious than tender, what with all the grunting and...

It looks like I've been 'tagged' to do a survey. Since I have nothing here to do at work (I'm that 'kick-ass' efficient ), here are my answers for your voyeuristic pleasure:

1. Seven things to do before I die:
1) Live in Kyoto.
2) Surf Tahiti.
3) Become a shihan in the Bujinkan.
4) Get my Master's degree in Game Programming.
5) Snowboard the...
