Do as Thou Wilt Shall Be the Whole of the Law
Ok, time for something that resembles a real update. Thanks to a tip from the SG news, I found Veoh's movie database, so I'm now in the process of downloading a number of classic flicks, Nosferatu, Cabinet of Dr Caligari, Metropolis, and the original Little Shop of Horrors.

Ok, this isn't one of those endless games of tag or anything, it's just something I thought of.
I have no testimonials, zero. I wouldn't mind a few, so, I'm proposing a little exchange. If you have something nice to say, put it in a testimonial, and I'll return the favor, saying whatever nice things I may have to say. And don't worry, I can...

Seven things to do before I die:
1) become immortal
2) move into a space city
3) learn kung fu
4) write a few books
5) cause a major public scandal
6) get a PhD (given that I've got pending applications now, this should come sooner rather than later)
7) acheive enlightenment
Seven Things I Cannot Do
1) full lotus posture

Does it really matter which one?
Soccer moms, yuppies and old people are pretty much the standard at everyone.

I always visualize fnord as the sound made by a nose as it is tweaked.
Had a somewhat productive day. I did most of the work for a short paper due this Friday, meaning that I don't have to do too much on it tomorrow. I also did some reading for my Nietzsche term paper. I perhaps should have read some more Nietzsche for class, but I can get through some of that tomorrow. Before I do anything else tomorrow,...

Yea it's not an abbreviation. Good ol' onomatopoeia .

Thanks! I think it was about a month ago.
On Friday, I received some money from my parents through the mail. Later the same day, as I walked to the bus stop from my seminar, I saw a copy of The Psychedelic Experience a manual for guiding a trip based on the Bardo Thodol authored by Timothy Leary, Richard Alpert (aka Ram Dass) and Ralph Metzner. I have the book in pdf, but I...

You think we're ready for it?
Reading Week has seriously cut into my slack. However, today I polished off the bulk of the most urgent work, meaning that over the next few days I can slow my pace and do some casual reading for my term papers. I think I'm going to set aside Saturday as a wake and bake day, but I might go back on that.

So, we decided to try out a new sushi place for Valentine's Day (we also decided to do dinner a day early since Tara had a major envie for sushi goodness). The restaurant is on Broadway, just a short bus ride away, and has a lot of good things on the menu. It ended up being pretty cheap, too.

UBC considers this week "Reading Week" which stands for "What ought to be spring break but happens in the winter because we live near a ski resort." I don't know if that's the actual reason, or it's just the way that right about now is actually the middle of the semester where for UNO and most other schools i'm familiar with the middle of the...

Wow college admin. really are genius'
While I stood waiting for the bus, this really normal looking guy came up to me (blue jeans, blue button-down shirt, grey undershirt, black leather jacket, blue baseball cap) and told me I was amazing. At first he asked me if I was an artist, pointing to my trenchcoat (which is decorated with occult symbols, for the uninitiated). I told him no. He then asked...

Interesting.... Vancouver bus people are even crazier than Calgary bus people, and oddly enough I've had similar experiences to this in Van. Weirds me out when its happening (especially because I am quite small and quite female) but then I look back after I'm safe somewhere and laugh. PEOPLE ARE NUTS. They make amusing stories though.

Tin foil helps them? really, i had always heard the oppisite. Guess i need to clean out my closet, LOL
I had the chance to take it easy this weekend. I finished The Gay Science yesterday, and I still have to start Thus Spake Zarathustra, but that was just about all I had to do. However, I will get a pile of exams to grade on Monday, and I have to finish them before reading week. This means that I'll only have one assignment...

did you get anyrthing done on the Reaper?
I picked up some forge world stuff, Space wolf terminators. they look pretty awsome. so that will most likely be my next project. Course i have this chaos space marine bust staring at me, so i should do something about it too, just not sure which chaos legion to model it after. I'm thinking either word bearers (red) or maybe Night lords (blue, with cool lighting bolts)

I cleared out my last PhD application, so now I just have to work on the various hiccups I'm sure to encounter along the way to getting my letter(s) of acceptance.
I delivered an excellent presentation on aphorism 125 in The Gay Science. I think I impressed the prof enough, and I had the class's attention far better than the other guy who presented....

i kinda thought i saw a little of the ole super man philosophy leaking threw!!! i like his stuff too. I'm a big fan of eastern pphil though. That's what i minored in, in college.
Wish i could say i studied Eastern philosophy, and cowboy movies. "the whoe yin the yang, and the bang-bang" but that lines taken. Course if i did do that kind of comparison, it'd be between Samurai movies, and westerns. That's a conversation in and of it's self!!!

I just finished Gravity's Rainbow. Absolutely incredible...a masterpiece. I don't know how people have trouble finishing it.

Dark reapers are pretty nasty. They have a dark reaper special charater you ought to check out.
I have a few eldar pieces, just haven't really been in the mood to paint elves lately. But when i am, i'll prolly take on an avatar mini.

And you gotta hook it up with the link for that.
I've been wanting to see Nosferatu for a while.
