Modern Tech versus The Past - Crave at CNET UK
World of Warcraft vs… actual world of war -craft. It’s interesting what kinds of comparisons Chris Stevens makes. The one I don’t really understand is Facebook vs Dinner Parties (??).

I’m on Chinese TV! I bet my parents will be so proud to tell their friends that their daughter was on tv for helping make a giant sushi roll. Hahah.

Photos from the UC Berkeley fee hike protests today. Wheeler was locked down by the police and they put up barricades around the perimeter. Protesters took ahold of the building and stayed on the 2nd floor, yelling encouragement down to the crowd below.
If you go to the newspaper link on the photo and click on the US Map section on the left-hand navigation, the first photo you see will be one I took of UC Berkeley rolling the world’s longest California Roll. It’s a nice feeling to get extra rewards from your hobbies, that you didn’t initially expect.
I LIKE TO FORK MYSELF: say hi to halloween
last year
i was so lost
but that night was beautiful
i was living in london, and i had a punk boy in my life
and it was such a relief to run away to
new york city
i had no time to buy costume, so i just wore my old dolce&gabanna from the 90s
ironically the one the punk boy gave to me …
i felt so…free and kind of excited
i was with my best friend p, and it was beautiful and strange night
we ended up in the most strangest place, most awkward moments
so newyork.
i think this year i will remember today as the day i slept 10 hours without
any help of anything or anyone without any dreams and woke up feeling peaceful and happy.
no more running away from something or someone or myself.
i wonder what will happen tonight

You can tell you’re really bad at dancing when you can’t coordinate the movement of your two arms. I’ve been trying to learn the Bad Romance dance for a week and I’m sorry to say that there is no hope for me as a future GaGa backup dancer…
Purchase of the semester. It is soft and fuzzy and fun and just amazing. I probably look like a creeper when I’m rubbing my hands on it, but honestly it just feels so good I need to hug myself… all the time.
I can’t go home. Can’t go home because it’s colder in my apartment than in the Unit 1 study rooms. Can’t go home because I haven’t been to Safeway in months and the only thing left of mine in the fridge is … oh wait I finished my pasta sauce. So I literally have nothing left in the fridge.
Our PG&E bill went from under $30 to $51 in October, and the PG&E lady told me it was probably because we turned on the heat. My other roommates turned on their heat for only a little bit, and the bill goes up by $20? PG&E lady, you must be kidding me. Either that or my roommates are liars, or the heat in this apartment building just sucks your bank account like a black hole. So I asked my roommate if she and her roommate would mind sharing the extra $20 over the regular $30 (she and her roommate keep their door closed & we don’t have a living room), and she told me no. Hello, my roommate and I are freezing in our room while you have the heat happily on in your room?
Note to myself: next year get an apartment not on the first floor, and don’t get one of those roommates who sneakily tries to take advantage of you but in an obvious way. Either you do it successfully, or you fail hard and foster mistrust in everybody you try to do it to. In the business world, that kind of mistake will come back to haunt you.
