Alas, due to my friends and myself being in the same dorm, the ips have led them to believe we are all the same person, so now I have to find three more people, unless my email convinces them otherwise.
So now good luck to me as well.


"Congratulations! You have currently completed all requirements to get your totally FREE iPod. We now need to confirm your account and referral offer completions. Please check back after 7 business days to see your status."

Wow.  BIG thanks to Alizera for the 5th and final one.... 3 of mine screwed up during the process, usually involving not using the referal link or a misspelled email address.....but....awesome.  If you're going for it, good luck on yours!

So, upon the internet there appeared a website offering free ipods.  "Surely, this is a hoax!"  However, it was not.

Thusly, I recently began my quest for an ipod.  By signing up and doing an offer, I will have my 5th of 5.  SUBMIT DAMNIT.

My sister called me up to her room for help with something that wasn't "a virus or anything."  She had apparently wanted some music on her (newly established) xanga site, like her freind had.  Thus i got to explain about file hosting etc which was a lot of fun "just ask your friend how he got his on."  IN ANY CASE it also reminded me of xanga and by association you, who has a xanga site.  I'd like to make fun of the Feb-May gap there, but ... heh.  You see, 17 is clearly a greater number than three.

I WILL NOW ATTEMPT TO SUM UP:
I got some asian guy in CA to mod my ps2.  His soldering job was inhuman, and I did have a lot of fun with DDR: 8th Mix.  HOWEVER!  Long ago, Sony decided they would use cheap lasers and thusly my ps2 is in a downward spiral, and will play extreme after about an hour's worth of trying (DID YOU BLOW IN IT?).  Must... surivive.... until... p...s...3...
Also: college!  Like my father who knows enough about computers to delete the system directory because it was "taking up space," so too do I know enough Japanese to politely order Flaming Doom at a restaurant.  I've taken up go/igo/baduk/weiqi thanks to that damn anime about it ("So....do they have any powers...or...anything?"  "No...they just play this board game...IT'S EXCITING DAMNIT!  I DON'T CARE HOW GOOD AT REVERSI YOU ARE!"  I am a miserable go player, but I am better at it than reversi, as in go I at least know the basic strategies behind winning.  
I dyed my hair blue, people seem to like it when I maintain it, but it's a pain in the ass.
There's a guy at State who's better at starcraft than me...however he didn't get much accomplished beisdes that and NWN and failed just about all his classes...SO I AM THE BEST STARCRAFT PLAYER BY DEFAULT NOW.
Ehhh....oh.  Took the 2 programming classes which I should have been allowed to bypass.  Two semesters for linked lists HOORAY.  This time will be more fun since I don't know everything anymore.  
I got a new phone!  It's a nice one with the internet and pictures etc.  My backgrounds in the mm2 tower and my ringtone is the stage sekect from mm1 because I am a huge nerd.  This summer I got a call from my neighbor at state and he had made a Ragnarok Online account since I had spent some time at state reminescing (I am too lazy for spellcheck) about how awesome it was (in comparison with Ultima Online) and he wanted to party with me.  Now, I hadn't played for like 1-2 years and told him so, but since they give you two weeks free trial and it's only like 10 bucks a month I figure why not so I played RO for a while.  However, he eventually started playing puzzle pirates instead wtf.  
Hmm.  I am much better at smash bros melee, teetering on the more advanced techniques...it will take someone in our little group learning to do one before anyone else does it to keep up, I think.
I have a gba sp, and am excited about the upcoming DS, though will probably wait until they make a blue one to buy it.
I played Tales of Symphonia, meh.
Ah!  My grandfather died.
My cats aren't dead... I don't know how long cats live or anything but I really hope I'm not at home when one finally does... it'd be very awkward.
I got that megaman collection and saw the movie that the ps2 one comes with..."SUPER FIGHTING RO-BOT...MEGA MAN!"  Arg.
A long time ago you brought up how "omg you haven't ever had ramen?"  Well, now I have had ramen...a lot of ramen.  Really the only kind I like is maruchan, particularly the cup ones, although they changed the way they package them or something, recently, as now the flavoring exists as little clumps, as opposed to the power tat stuck to the moddle from before.  I prefer the old way, because I'd dump out everything and the amount that remained on the noodles was the perfect amount....now to do that...it's difficult guessing how much to leave, pfeh.
We decided we'd learn to throw cards (as weapons), and bought several decks of them.  I'm decent at it, but another guy can consistantly throw with enough force to draw blood, whereas mine...only sometimes.  I ordered one of those powerball gyro wrist-things and I think that's helped a good bit.
There was a large plexiglass window by my room in the hallway and and former denizens had mentioned that they tried, but it was impossbile to break.  Mysteriously one day there was a hole in it that appeared to have been caused by booze.  And an axe.  This was good for squirtguns (3rd floor).  One day, in a hilarious turn of events, a large-ish fellow charged and rammed into it, effectively doing what the previous year had failed to accomplish.  I could have sworn a "9999" appeared above the window at that moment.
I tried to learn to wall-run, as it seems to be a learnable skill NO THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH NINJA GAIDEN WHAT WOULD GIVE YOU THAT IDEA?  As I told a fellow enthusiast, "See, all we need to do is take like three steps, starting with either foot, then we can run down the hallway, alternating walls so that it's like Sonic 2."  I got that sonic 2 adventure battle and it sucks, I was so sad at the sucking.  I saw, like, up to episode 9 of the sonic x anime, and card guy watched it as well when I'd get a new one.  The best thing that came of that was when fox licensed it, and displayed it on their network.  Now, in the japanese show, in the first episode, eventually sonic causes a sonic boom and then it IMMEDIATLY cuts to a screen defining "sonic boom," since the show is obviously aiming at like 4 year olds who I guess don't know what that is yet.  So, as the legend goes, card guy's little brother is watching it, and he's like "ok get ready for this next part, it's hilarious."  NO DESCRIPTION.  We are robbed of the description, left to puzzle at what a "sonic boom" could possibly be, poor us.

Teh End, finally.

I'm going to mod my ps2 for imports, and by "mod" I mean "break beyond all repair."

Yay.

The chip I ordered has a smiley face on it.

A smiley face.
