so this blog has been renewed for another 3 years. yay! yup, i went to netsol today and extended the domain name until 6/2011. i hope i'll still be writing until then. i wonder how much it'll change by that time. anyways, i want to wholeheartedly thank all you darling pups out there for reading (and commenting, *hint hint*). it means a lot to me. really.
the weather out there has been nasty. it's windy and rainy. i can't imagine what it's like to be at stanford, biking/walking around to class and stuff. i remember when i was in college, i would have to bike in that shit, and my rear wheel would kick up water and dirt and make this nasty streak up my pants. we called it "bike butt." ick. it's supposed to rain all through the weekend, so it looks like i'll be staying indoors these next few days.
i was itching to go to mel's place (yogurt fantasy) last night. but when nelson and i were deciding where to go for dinner, we decided on pho nam, and that was nowhere close to the yogurt place. oh well. and i don't feel like braving the rain just to go there this weekend. (and plus, it's cold, and frozen yogurt isn't really something you want to eat in this chilly weather.) but, they got the mochi topping in! yum. now, if i could only convince them to get captain crunch as well, then it'd be one step further in matching my pinkberry experience.
stanford is 3rd in the director's cup standings so far this year. cal, surprisingly, is 1st. go stanford, go! we've won like the past dozen+ years, so hopefully we can catch up and keep the streak alive.
i'm excited to play basketball again next week. my toe is good enough (i hope) to go, and i really need some exercise. i'm gaining weight, not surprisingly, so i gotta get out there on the courts.
i took ben out to lunch today for his (very) belated birthday. we were supposed to go to maruichi in milpitas, but it was packed, so we wound up going to chez mayflower, which i had absolutely no objections to. we both happened to order the scrambled egg and beef over rice, but it was really bland this time. yuck. ben showed up in a pink polo with a pink tie. wow! brave! hehe. that boy hasn't blogged in like a year and a half. *grumbles*
re: chipotle. i think that place is only so-so. they don't have much variety, and their burritos are a little too big for me. and their rice is a little strange, imho. taco bell has more variety, and i really dig some of their items. i usually get three things there: the baja chicken gordita, the spicy chicken burrito, and the meximelt, and i eat them in that order. $5.06 for a good meal. oh, and fire sauce is a must. btw, chipotle dude/dudette: how did you find my blog?
but honestly, most of the time, i find taco bell to be gross. like, if i'm not hungry, if you ask me if i want taco bell, i would say, "hell no." it's only when i'm famished that taco bell sounds damn good. like, i can imagine how it tastes, and i literally start to drool. weird how something can have such a big swing in attractiveness, huh?
you know, when a guy seeks a girl out for friendship, most of the time it's because he finds her attractive. is that statement true? mostly true? for me, i think it's almost always true. it's very _when harry met sally_. so, if people (i'm talking about the girl here) know that, what's the girl to think? she should be aware of the fact that the guy's sort of interested, right? and if not, she's just clueless. hm. i guess that means there's a lot of clueless girls out there.
i am very pissed off by this facebook quiz on identifying videogame characters. the first question was a picture of mario, and two of the four options were "paper mario" and "mario." what the fuck is the difference? i mean, how was i supposed to know? *RAAR* that was the only question i missed, and i am very sore about that one. *fumes*
nelson and i are planning on watching some of the oscar-nominated best picture films. of interest is _no country for old men_. i've heard great things about it. on the other films, we diverge. i want to see _atonement_ (i love keira knightley), and he wants to see _there will be blood_. and even though it got like a 14% rotten rating, i kind of want to see _untraceable_ because of diane lane. she's hot (for an older woman). i mean, when i came up with my nubiles list, the first two "do-able" women that popped up in my head were natalie portman and diane lane. interesting, huh?
oh, speaking of that first girl, i found this picture of natalie portman naked (nsfw). i think it's stunning. i mean, i already thought she was cute and seductive in _leon (the professional)_, but that was before she was legal, and now she's grown into this beautiful woman. hot-cha! and plus, she has good taste, too; wasn't she voted 2007's best dressed woman or something like that? no fashion victim is she!
aren't porn stars all on the pill and screened for STD's? so somebody please tell me why guys use condoms! it's such a turn off!
today's morning song: "shadow of the day" by linkin park. the weird thing was that it was in my head when i woke up, and then it was the song that was playing when my alarm went off. kooky!
ok, i'm heading off soon. have a STUPENDOUS weekend, folks!
