Holla back, from da Kat unda da Kangol Cap! Another week, another post, another series of events that bring me closer to graduation.
This week's thoughts might seem incoherent, and forgive me, I do not have the luxury this week of planning everything out. So they come as I think of 'em...
Yup, brand-spanking-new 15" TiBooks are here! Yeah, I know I said I was going for the 12-inch TiBook, but with no Firewire 800, and no PC-Card slot, and adding the fact that a 17-inch TiBook is too much for me, I was glad to know that the folks at Apple thought about peeps like me. My only complaint...
No G5??
What the hell?!
Oh well.
In any event, i took Vee's test, and got the same result:
Poseidon
?? Which Of The Greek Gods Are You ??

I'm usually not one for these tests, but it gave me something to do while I waited for an email reply.
Fallen
Mya

Here it is again! Another album in which I can't find fault in. In the quest to not upgrade my iPod by cutting down song count, I have been unable to find a song from this album to delete! I can't believe that Mya, like John Mayer, 50 Cent, and Beyoncé, is making good music!
While on the subject, I happened to have read her interview for King Magazine. And while I was stuck on the pics for a while (who wasn't?), I couldn't help but ponder on her "new found sexual independence." Are these sexual adventures, none of which I mind partaking in, part of her growing up, or are they just devices to sell her album? After My Love is Like... Wo, that question does raise some debate...
My grandmother just returned to Trinidad an hour ago, from a two-week stay at the crib. Having her here was just wonderful; especially with the lengthly conversations she and Pop had. It allowed me to watch my Bret Hart compilations in peace; and as it turned out, my grandma used to watch wrestling! Now that's hilarious. She's 80, and my grandpop is 84. I hope next time she comes, grandma brings him with her!
I finally acquired the SONY MDR-EX71SL Earphones last week. After a week or so of testing, I have concluded that these are beyond all shadow of doubt, the best earphones I've had. Though a bit pricey (@ exactly $50), I've seen earphones for 3 times that amount. Though the phones go inside the ear, they have a snug fit, and generate excellent bass, reproducing all of the sound very accurately. They get a 10 out of 10 from me; with my only complaint being the warranty and earphone information are in Japanese...
Union Square had a special seamstress special on Sunday. I saw the largest yarn sale on Earth, and immediately I thought of Tavie. But as she relayed to me, she'll only end up buying the entire lot, and cash is low. So I offer her credit, to which she declined. Oh well, I tried.
In almost surreal timing, or perhaps after reading her blog today, I'm starting to develop a cold. Very weird that Vee and I develop colds right around the same time.
Too weird.
At least I have something to fight it: ginger tea. My brother balks at it, but as I tell him: All ya gotta do is let it cool down, hold your nose, and guzzle it down the system. With any luck, in two days I'll be fine. I hope...
All right, folks. I need to rest for work tomorrow. Catch you next week...
