Touch and Go

I haven't really touched home base lately and blogged. It used to be something I did all the time. It summed up life, made me think about what I actually did, and allowed me to look back later. I think I might be growing away from it though! Although it seems that only Dani reads my blog anyways, so my audience is a little slim.

So what do I have to say these days? Some things that are cool are happening.

I'm participating in Stachetober, even if a certain someone who sparked it and may or may not be named dean already dropped out. I haven't shaved the stache since oct. 5th, and I don't plan to until at least after Oct. 31st. So far I don't hate myself. But we'll see what happens. It's still in its larval form. I'll post pics later when I can dig up my camera and take a few!

Also, I'm part of the beginning of a game makers organization at Columbia! This is pretty sweet because it makes me pretty high profile in my department (and I always love a good ego stroking) and it means I'll finally meet all those other kids that aren't in my classes but in my major, and we might even be able to make some games! That will be most enjoyable.

Aside from that, this semester is kind of a cruise. Well, that is if you don't count my 28 page study guide for my personal wellness midterm next week. That's not so cool. I got a friend of mine from Game Design hired as the new me at my office (aka student worker). It's pretty sweet because now I have someone I can consistently talk to at work. And I can even boss him around! Okay that's not true. I can't unless Andre tells me I can.

Me and Dave went to see a show on tuesday. Namely, Architecture in Helsinki. They were probably the best show I've seen in...well maybe one of the best shows I've ever seen! If you don't know who they are, I highly suggest, no, I demand that you check them out. Stop grumbling, you'll thank me later.

I need to start hanging out with my friends more. I never know what to say to them anymore because I don't know what they are up to! And most of them are my room mates! That's never a good sign.

Bring back the things that make me happy right now List:

• Architecture in Helsinki. great show, good times.
• Hanging out with Dave. We have awesome conversations about games, philosophy, music, and coolness!
• Jeramiah, the awesome new student worker (until we fire him!)
• mustaches...but not stache-snacks! Clean that fucker out!
  
• possible game making
• last weekend...even though I forgot what made it good.

I'll try to blog a little more often. That may be a lie. Let's hope it isn't.
