A little pretentious emo bullshit

Believe it or not, I'm actually working on some new entries that will be halfway decent. I even annoy myself when I say "Oh! that'll be on my blog tomorrow!" and I lazily ignore said topic and play Halo for extended periods of time.
So in the meanwhile, allow me to be just like every other teenager (for only 3 months more, mind you) and just type out some song lyrics that are somewhat pertinent to my situation.

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration can slip away
Because your baby's so far away
And there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love
Love the one you're with

Yup. I'm trying to get all of my angst out of my system before Christmas. Only 14 more shopping days left!

Kickstarter Project Update #37 - Our 3D printed water bottles and our co-founder are being held hostage by pirates

Dear Backers/fellow dream chasers, Fourteen months ago, you proudly declared that not only did you want a BPA-free water bottle with a custom-printed conforming grip, but you also agreed with the core message and vision of H20DNA. Part of that mission statement includes being upfront about our delivery timeline. The good news is that we have finally manufactured every single bottle and they are truly amazing. There is, however, one minor, fairly negligible hiccup. Nicaraguan pirates have abducted the completed shipment of bottles as well as our co-founder, Eric Steen-Owens. But do not worry. Start-up culture means always following through, and just as you didn’t quit when we challenged you to hit the stretch goals of a fanny pack attachment and CamelBak adaptor straw, we will not stop until those bottles (and Eric) are delivered to your door and the US consulate, respectively. -For those of you who pledged up to $35 dollars...

Allergies had been a constant issue for Hal ever since a family trip to Puget Sound twenty years ago prompted his esophagus to close up. Ear, nose and throat issues had always plagued his family, with the exception of his sister Brenda, the golden child who never suffered agonizing sneezing fits; she of the preternaturally infectious energy normally reserved for golden retriever puppies or Roger Federer in the fifth set at Wimbledon. Hal’s deviated septum led to chronic sinusitis and a perpetual need for antihistamines. Today he was opting for the store br...

1 October 2007 - The One Where Max Lives like he was dying

Now this might sound like a slightly melodramatic overexaggeration, but over this past weekend, I faced a crossroads that changed the structure of my entire being and put me on a completely different path. If you're still reading, I applaud you and ask you to bare with me. Basically, I had a choice: One option meant that I would stay in Auckland and work on my 1500 word " Singin' in the Rain " paper as well as my upcoming in-class essay on Paul Gauguin. The other involved a weekend long trip that would put me in mortal danger and annihilate the balance of my checking account. So the choice was obvious. And I? I took the road less traveled by and decided to drive down to Lake Taupo on Friday afternoon and put off my papers until...well...right now (and I suppose this blog gives me yet another outlet for procrastination). So what was this mystery trip? I was going to wake up on Saturday morning and put my pants on one leg at a time. But once my pants were on, I wa...
