LCD Monitors Are Oh So Juicy

Yes...it's shameful. I was living in the 1980s before today. I was holding down a dreadfully antiquated CRT monitor. Now...I'm finally in the 1990s...I got a 19 inch LCD monitor. My eyes are still trying to readjust to the new aspect ratio and different brightness and such, since I can't seem to set them exactly like how they used to be on my old CRT, but hell, change is good.

Lately, I've been listening to the Notorious B.I.G. I'm really enjoying his song Juicy. For regular readers, you would all know that my listening tastes are quite eclectic...I jump from listening Benny Benassi, Daft Punk and the Global Deejays, to Notorious B.I.G. and Nas to Vybz Kartel and Tony Matterhorn to Saosin and Limp Bizkit. I have a very "globalized" ear, as a friend once put it.

My friends are all full of shit.

Generally though, while I listen to practically every type of music, I noticed I tend towards songs with strong and/or repetitive/driving basslines. Maybe I have some subconscious desire to have some subliminal messaging programmed into me...who knows?

Onto the next topic...Kanye West really needs some concept of appropriateness. Ugh..he's a great rapper, but he needs to SHUT UP once in a while. I think what he did to Taylor Swift at the VMAs was just terrible. Even if Beyonce deserved the award more, I don't think he should have ruined Taylor Swift's time onstage like that. How would it have gone if Nas, for example, ran up on Kanye receiving an award onstage, grabbed the mic from him, and shouted, "My man Jay-Z deserves this shit, Kanye is just some wack ass crap man!!"

Not very well, I can tell you that.

Anyway, I should just say that I seem to be overcompensating with blog posts on weekends, since I can hardly do them during the week, but I suppose getting 2 loaves on Friday and Saturday is better than getting none at all for the week right?

I apologize to creator of that idiomatic expression. Like, I'm totally sorry for butchering it like that dude..it was nasty. That was so bad...there was like blood all over the place and stuff, you know?

Learning Japanese is going pretty well by the way. I know somewhere in the region of 100 basic kanji (the 80 Grade 1 Joyo Kanji + a couple of common verb kanji). I'll start Grade 2 Kanji eventually, hopefully, by the end of next week...but I'll just have to see how that fits in with my school schedule.

Oh yes...and for all those who it matters to, PUA Haze is alive, kicking ass and taking names.

Peace Out,
Lord Robinson

P.S. Here's something for the non-Jamaicans to figure out, most Jamaicans worth their salt should figure this out in 10 seconds or less. It's a line from a dancehall song, you can post the answer to the comment box or email the answer to me if you think you know what it means. Extra points if you can tell me the name of the song it's from.

"If yu tell me fi squint me nuh squint my eye."

Good luck people.

Now Playing: Devil May Cry 3

Well no, I'm actually not playing it YET. Its still downloading (yarrr matey...I be a software pirate...lol).

Anyway, as you can clearly see, I've renovated the blog for summer. I added my Twitter feed (my account name is puahaze) and enabled Google Friend Connect. The weird thing is, I thought I had these features on my blog before. Oh well, I guess I was wrong. Do you think I'm going senile?

Anyway, I just got this site called Texts From Last Night off TSB Magazine. I've been cracking up since I found it. These people are something else. Seriously, I'm left wondering if some of these people EXIST....I would definitely want their autographs. Some of the funniest ones I've seen so far are:

(612): What started out as a threesome has become me sitting here watching them have sex... Can I get a ride home?

(310): ohhhh fuckk. chicks a dude.

(404): Can I crash on your couch? I just came home to find my wife giving two guys blowjobs.
(1-404): Two?
(404): Two.

(603): not only are you not the girl i fell in love with, but from the looks of it, you ate her

(978): i'm sick of taking my pants off and seeing a look of disappointment on the girls face. i want her to be frightened

(513): I feel like Captain Hook just gave me a pap smear.

I could go on and on, but its better that you just read it yourself.

CAPE exams for me are almost finished. I have Mathematics and Biology multiple choice papers left. I think I did pretty well on everything, apart from the Physics long paper, which was an EPIC fail >_< due to a stupid mistake on an optics questions. I still think I'm getting distinctions on everything else. Maybe I'll be getting a 2 in Physics, which at CAPE level is still a distinction. Ah well, life's cool.

Despite the fact that I have two exams left, its SUMMER!!! YEAH!!! The idea of me working out is not working out. Seriously. I started running yesterday though. Hopefully by the end of this month or so, I should see or feel a noticeable change. I'm not convinced, although there's this dent in my belly, which could indicate the start of weight loss(or pregnancy >_<).

Here is a clip of the 08-09 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Before clicking play, you may want to get some tissue to wipe up all the drool. You'll see:



Yeah I was just a bit idle on youtube, all the feminists here, forgive me please. lol

Still, no I haven't forgotten about programming. I've just been a bit...discouraged. But no, I'm not giving it up. More about that some other time.

Oh yeah, and by the way, you guys should check this out. Its pretty enlightening. At least to me it is. I don't know about you "well-thinking" human beings. lol

Peace and Love,
Gavin

Half Assed or Medium Rare

Well, as you know, in addition to being a hobbyist progammer, I am also a purveyor of half-assed ideas(POHAI). Here are some of my more recent ones:

1)Become a kickass PUA
2)Start my own webcomic(I can't even DRAW >_<)
3)Learn how to draw(Maybe this is in the wrong order)
4)Write poems

Well, okay, the first and the last ones are pretty reasonable. For longtime readers of Happy Desolation however, you all probably know that my art skills are well, the stuff of nighttime talk shows. So, lets keep it realistic.

Number 1 is going pretty well, trust me. I'll stay tight lipped about it here though.

Number 4 is easy. My father is a pretty good writer. He's won a few competitions, but has never been lucky enough to get a book published or a movie script sold. Its not a matter of the quality of his work, as much as its a matter of our geography, if you know what I mean. I guess writing skill is genetic, because I sure as hell have it.

I was always writing MASSIVE stories in high school. I was always at the top of my English class. If Clive reads this, he can probably vouch for me about that story I wrote in Grade 8. 15 pages in one night. Most of the class did 4 pages. Clive's story about a dying dog warmed our hearts. Mine about a boy who made a deal with a demon froze their blood. Hehehehe.

So, by special request, by a special girl, I post the first poem in my series of poems here.

Haze
Dedicated to Bliss

I don't know where to start this poem,
And thinking would take too much time.
When I try to talk from my heart,
I suppose I could compare you to a fine piece of art,
But really, I'm not a nice person, why should I start?

Your personality is amazing,
And from what I remember, your ass is blazing,
Knowing you makes me lucky, so I'm praising,
Don't let your brother see this, please, no hell raising.

You seem really outstanding,
As bright as a day,
I swear to God, although I'm writing this poem, I'm not gay.

Your eyes seemed as cold as ice,
But at the same time as clear as a bell.
I wonder, if I hadn't met you, would I be in existential hell?
At the time, you seemed as silent as the grave,
But now that I almost know you, its like you're naughty, you can't behave.

Silent yet as pretty as a picture,
After reading this I'm expecting you to give me a stricture.
I'm running out of Blogger space,
But keep this poem in your heart, your special place.

Thats all I can write about you for now, Bliss,
If you really like it you can repay me with a kiss



Oh lol.

Did I really write that? Sounds a bit too mushy. Hmmm...needs a few more heavy metal guitars and rockstars bleeding out of their eyes. Oh well.

You guys should definitely check out Questionable Content. It is one of the funniest and best webcomics I've read, alongside Striptease and Animals Have Problems Too.

As I mentioned earlier, I'm not much of an artist, but that's about to change. I've decided to practice the HELL out of myself lol. I started at like 2 in the morning. I've been drawing logos, then decided to move on to more advanced stuff. I drew the QC characters. I think they came out pretty well, for a terrible artist like me. They look a bit smudged, sorry. They weren't really that smudged, but my scanner is like almost half my age, so its a bit outdated(a bit huh?).

Here it is for your viewing pleasure or displeasure, if you get off on that sort of crap:



Whew, that was a MASSIVE post. I haven't written this much for a while. I think that's about if for now. Hope it was to your liking, my dear readers.

All Your Base Are Belong To Us,

Learning is fun KIDS!! lol.

P.P.S. If by the odd chance that you're reading this Mr.Jacques, I'm sorry for butchering Marteen and Hanners. I think Pintsize came out quite well though. lol.

Almost Done

Mock exams are on their way. All programming work has stopped. All my energy is being focused on studying and picking up girls. Need to relieve stress. Can't keep coherent thoughts....

A long time ago, I made this video. Yes, I'm KirbzXXX. Hope you like it:


I also made Boondocks and Samurai Champloo AMVs, but youtube removed them. Oh well.

Sayonara,
