The Graveyard Shift
November 16th, 2007 § 3 Comments
I took on the 12AM-8AM shift for tonight and tomorrow. I’m 3 hours in now and I haven’t passed out yet.
I should be OK as I slept for 3 hours before the shift and will do some more sleeping when I get home today. Working in the computer lab on campus must be one of the best college jobs to have. You basically get paid to get homework done, study and surf the web (all things I normally do for no pay.) Even when you do have to “work” it’s helping a student save a file or login (or something similarly easy.)
I’ll begin work on the fundrasing again when I wake up… tomorrow (or later today depending on how you look at it.) I’ll start with a new video which I’ll post here.
The shirtNinja Revolution has Begun!
Because of a suggestion of a youtube subscriber by the name of xKab2 I made a video asking people what shirtNinja’s like to do:
I actually got some replies.
So I decided to make a website dedicated to the replies. Here it is: http://www.shirtninjas.info/
Here’s xKab2 with the original video:
Here’s a creative one from Diovisi:
Here’s one all the wat from Sweden by Wraxz:
You don’t even need a camera with sound! Check out WiderWriter’s video:
OH! And shirtNinja’s like dexterity practice:
I think you get the idea. Check out the website to see more.
Monster will also like to hear that I’m applying for Ultimate Fighter Season 7. No guarantee that I’ll make it, but I’m going to try!
Way Over Due for a Post
November 10th, 2007 § 3 Comments
Life was keeping me good and busy for a while. Let me do a quick recap of events.
First the pressure was on at school for a while. I really needed to get caught up in English 101. I was several essays behind and new ones were piling up every day. I finally took care of that mess 1 or two weeks ago (it’s hard to tell.
) Then, right after that it was time to go through training for my new job. Then the following week was shadowing (I’m sure there’s some overlapping with those things.)
Then, a couple days I got pulled over for speeding (yeah, I was speeding) and the cop took my plates because they were my buddy Marc’s old plates. Then that same night my car got towed. Then (the next day) I had to miss school and do everything I needed to do to get the car out of the tow lot. Then (the day after that) I had to get new plates for the car. *sigh*
Well, yesterday was a good day. The computer I ordered from Dell came. I found a good deal online. It was $474 after tax (I had to pay tax because I bought it from the business site.) Came with a 19 inch widescreen monitor, my choice of Vista or XP (I took Vista), Intel Core Duo 2.2G, DVD Burner… yeah. Oh and free next day business shipping. I ordered it on Tuesday afternoon and it got to my door Friday at 12.
Anyhow, now I’m getting all situated at home for getting “work” done (blogging, editing video for Youtube, and uploading pictures.) The iBook was being a trooper and serving me well, but I never really got that comfortable with it (and it’s been running like a dog for the past few months.)
ANYHOW… Big things are in store. I’m still working (behind the scenes) on the computer lab project, my logo should be done soon and my first run of T-Shirts should be right around the corner and I have some new projects in line.
I can’t believe I’m using IE. It’s kinda sexy on Vista. Has the Google toolbar stuff all built in already. I’m sure I’ll have Firefox or Opera on this thing soon.
Back on the horse!
