Engineers and programmers are the often-anonymous architects of society, and what you do now could make a huge difference to the lives of millions, even billions, of people in decades to come.

it's cool people that brighten your day. cool people like james and paul that come up every week despite the traffic and long distance to kick it, eat, smoke, and drink. cool roommates like sammy that make everything competitive, even a small game of foos ball or a battle on ol' skool ps1. cool people like the fine (and smart) chick in two of my classes that randomly come up to talk to you (despite your darkman burnt face) and let you know that you have 3 extra days to do your project so you can study for the 2 finals you have together on friday. *sigh*. cool people like annie that call to let you know they're home from the east coast and then don't call to let you know they didn't die in traffic because they were on the phone with you but had to hang up because they were gonna cause an accident. cool people like the chicks that sun bath in the grass in de neve (bless those chicks and their tanning bodies especially when they bend over).
now there are those uncool people that let you know that your day sucks. uncool people like catherine who talks about how happy she and her boyfriend are and that everybody in the world can see it even their professors. just kidding catherine! i'm happy for you! i wish everyone could experience that type of happiness once in their life (and then keep it... but what are you gonna do? huh!).
the kanye west CD is badass.
the outkast CD is tight too ("fuck that valentine's day!").
songs i might pay $1 on iTunes for:
ginuwine - what's so different
young gunz - no better love
mario winans - i don't wanna know
i'm totally in my hip hop and r&b mood. keeps me happy and makes me smile listening to this stuff. come on, i grew up with this stuff. wanna dance? hit me up.
