Part time update
So as you all know, I’m working part time. Still am.
But because of that I’ve started to have a lot of free time, it drives me nuts, but I’m trying to cope with it. I’m reading a bit less now since I’ve found my entertainment alternative. its called HULU, and it rocks. All you need is an internet connection and some free time. They have movies, TV shows, almost anything up there. There is no downloading, so your watching it online, and the trick they have to make it all legal, they have 30 second commercial breaks, not too many though. On a normal 30 minute show, they would have 3 ads spread out. Its actually not that bad. So I’ve been watching some of my favorite shows up there like “The Pretender” & “Burn Notice”.
As for the reading, I’m almost done with “Blowout”, its taking me a while because I get distracted by HULU and my eReader, I’m reading 2 books on there as well..so I’m in a total of reading 3 books, I keep switching back and forth when ever I get bored with one of them, its odd, I’ve never done anything like this before.
I’ve also found a little unhidden hobby, given that there are so many cafes, and coffee shops in my area, I started rating them, by their Hot Chocolate. You heard right, any time I would go into any of these cafes I would always order a hot chocolate, and depending on how well there HC is, the higher the recommendation they get from me =). I’m like Berkeley’s own little HC reviewer, if only I could get paid for it, or at least get free hot chocolate =).
So far “People’s Cafe” has been on the Top of the list for a while, and they have not one but TWO types of Hot Chocolate.
-hot chocolate & mexican hot chocolate. The MHC has a little spice to it, almost like a Chai that thinks its a hot chocolate, very deleech.
Later today I’m meeting up with Guita & Lucky, so that we can finalize the details of the up coming events we are planning to have at The Muse, it looks like I will be running a weekly “open mic” type gatherings starting Thursdays of 2009, so tonight we are getting everything straightened out so I can start advertising it to all the cool musicians who are interested.
I was hanging out with John Nomad last night, first of he proposed to his girl Jen and she said yes =)
Second, he’s thinking of moving to Hawaii and came up to me saying “would like to move to Hawaii with me and Jen?”…its very tempting really, but you all know me, I would need to have plan A, B & C set up before I can do something like that =).
He keeps telling of how easy it is to get a job there, and cheap places to stay. I heard that argument about coming to Berkeley and it didn’t play out as smoothly as that, so I worry that it will be just as rough if not rougher, but this time, we would be in an island, not knowing anyone, and I would not be able to hitch a ride back to Cali & Bmore, unless there is a hidden bridge between Hawaii & The U.S. that I don’t know about =).
Funny thing is, I was chit chatting with one of my UB professor the other night, and there is a company in Hawaii that is offering him a position to move there. Now that would be the style to get me there, if I am guaranteed a job and at least finding a nice little apartment, then I would start to seriously consider it.
Other than that, I would have to go visit first and see how things are.
Alright, well there you have it.
I should try to get back to work, it seems like a nice slow day today (wohoo), Jut & I might end up working on the A/V Rack, to fix it up a little.
Have a good day my friends.
Salaam
