    I work as a projector operator in a movie theatre and today me and my colleague got the instructions to montage a couple of trailers before the Bollywood movie Chandi Chowk To China. My colleague did the montage on the movie whilest I went checking on other rooms. Suddenly we recieved message that the wrong movie was being shown... A grave mistake for a almost full room of 495 seats. We swiftly stopped and started the right one. Later on, when I was on my way to do some tech solving, our theatre manager called me to him and asked me if I was the one who arranged the Bollywood movie. I replied; "Nope, it wasn't me!" innocently, with my hands up.

    I turned around and he pushed me in the back, aggravated, while I walked away, smiling...

    The infamous "pause" hack in Warcraft III has been around for quite some time. Even though Blizzard is trying their best at fixing it, many people are still victimized by this lethal hack. It pauses the game three times in the beginning, then all of your commands and graphics are "locked" on screen, meaning they stay there forever. You can't move your screen with your mouse, but you can move it with your keyboard; you can't drag a box around to select units, but you can click them individually; you can't right-click on items, but you can use your keyboard. I managed to beat someone with "pause" hack, and that made me smile.

    I wish she had been hired to write Naruto fillers. They would have been so much better. Especially with the... Crocodile!

    I finally saw the last of a very bitter break-up today. I hadn't spoken to or seen my ex-girlfriend in over a month, until last night. I tried to confront her to make peace, to no avail. She told me to go away and cursed me out.

    After it became painfully obvious that she hated me now and wanted absolutely nothing to do with me, I sent her a facebook message telling her I'd like to be her friend again some day. A word of warning: Never do that. Now she's severed all contact with me and resents me for being annoying.

    The smiling part comes in just after I went through this. My favorite roommate who had moved out at the end of last semester came in at 3 in the morning to get the rest of his stuff. He was just the person I needed to see. I nearly cried.

    It's quite bittersweet, feeling absolutely alone and lost, and at the same time knowing that you have mountains of friends who care about you and you can talk to. Makes me smile. The healing begins now.

    Garden Spiders are pretty cool to have around, mainly because they do helpful things like protect your plants from other insects. We have about six-eight Garden Spiders that have taken up residence within our garden, and it's fun to see them devour the pests. They hardly bite humans, but if they do, it's usually harmless.

    Well, it started to snow after the icy rain let up. So far, we have about two to three inches of snow. Not enough to build a large snowman, but it's something, I guess.

    It's "fresh sushi", prepared on the day. It was just getting to the end of the day, so they packed it all into containers and wanted to get rid of them. They were of okay quality, though the stuff wasn't really that "fresh" for fresh sushi. I've had better.

    Aye, that was the case around here too, until a few years ago. Then they bumped it up to $15AUD. It's on the other side of town....probably 40 minutes drive from my place, so don't visit it often at all.

    I've been playing video games at work, specifically Gears of War 2 on insane mode, so I have to repeat levels a few times before I can beat them. So lately I've been turning away user requests for help and just generally being belligerent to people, mostly because they keep interrupting me when I'm on my 5th attempt trying to kill some grub boss, and partly because their requests are not following procedure and are usually idiotic support requests ("my computer won't turn on, even if I keep pressing the [on] button on the monitor" type questions).

    Today some managers asked me if I was stressed out, looking for reasons for my recent antisocial and unprofessional behavior. I got a good laugh out of that. If only I could tell them the real reason.


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    Just completed subbing and timing for the latest Ultraman movie "Great Decisive Battle! Super Ultra 8 Brothers". Uploaded the srt file and knowing that the rest of the non-Japanese fans can enjoy the movie too made me smile.
