I didn’t even finish the second Harry Potter movie. I got tired of watching it about half way through. I’ll still finish tomorrow, but watching it felt like reading Cliff Notes missing all the good parts. There are still cool parts in the movie and the movie great for visuals but I’d choose the book [...]

I have all of the keys memorized, now I just need to practice. It took less then 24 hours to learn. So far I like it a lot. I don’t have much to talk about right now. School was good this morning. I’m downloading the free Ragnarok Online game that rcebrnr told me about and [...]

I guess I’ll have to wait for a day or 2 before I start writing blogs with the Dvorak key setup. Surprisingly I’m having no trouble switching from one style to the other. The program I posted about in my previous post keeps a log of how long you’ve spent practicing and I haven’t even [...]

The first day of school went quite well. I got there about a half hour early, a head teacher (or something) gave me the books I’ll be using, then over an hour and a half went by before I started teaching. I got lucky, no kids crying, throwing up or anything like that. Their level [...]

We played two games of Scrabble at game club today and I think won both (official rules need to be checked). In the first I was helped by my miltown spelling of acquited (notice the missing T for those whose spelling matches my own). By the time someone noticed we were too far into the [...]

I saw that Daft Punk movie Intersella 5555 and it was quite nice. You might have been like me and saw a few animated music videos that were suppose to get linked together into a whole movie some years back and it never happened. Well it did. If you like their music you should enjoy [...]

Well my interview went well, a big thank you to anyone that wished me luck. The school is only about a 10 minute walk from my apartment. I just showed up, goofed around with the kids for about 15 minutes and left. After chillin’ in the crib for an hour or two I got a [...]

Another day another A. Well I finished Harry Potter book 1 a few days ago and I must say, I liked it. So I gave the movie another look today and boy did I sleep through that one. They had the part with the unicorn and blood dripping just like I remember it from the [...]

A big hello to everyone out there in cyber space! This is my first blog posting (that you’ll see, I actually posted some other stuff but it’s since been deleted). If you’re reading this I will assume you as I are on the path to being a crusty wizard so there is no explanation necessary. [...]
