    in rainbows

    While this is probably the #1 blog post today in the blogosphere, I thought I’d pitch in as well. At about 10:30pm PST yesterday, I received an email I had been hoping to get for quite some time. (er, 10 days..) w.a.s.t.e sent me a download link, and within a…

  • it’s finally official

    As of today, I’m a double art/film digital media major. Awesome. Quite the ordeal, I have to say. College 8 was a bit of a punk about it, and the film department was just plain silly at times. All and all, the Art department rocked, and was strangely efficient. Weird.…

  • way to go amazon.com

    I ordered something for a special someone’s birthday, and after the order online was marked as delivered, and UPS told me to contact the shipper (because only they can start a “trace”?), I was a bit frustrated when there was no phone number to be found for Amazon. However, I…
