a little late coming, but FINALLY

Let's see.. 2D or 3D... *COUGH* Ōkami *COUGH* Viewtiful Joe...
You know this is going to be mixed, but still I think it's going to be some hybrid sideview. Not going to be fully able to move around like Tekken. Which is what sorta breaks Tekken.

Color scheme change

The white was getting to my eyes. Lately, bright light has been really bugging me. Getting headaches from really bright sunlight, bright car lights, by my god damn monitor. I had to turn down the contrast and brightness on my monitor for regular use, I only turn them up when I'm uploading and editing photos. Also, I have to actually tilt the rear-view mirror away when the jackass behind has those friggin' really bright lights. That really pisses me off. I understand they're not using high beams, but fuck, it's just as strong. So anyway, I had to darken up this page. Too bad Flickr doesn't offer any custom CSS schemes.

Rain rain, stay stay stay

It's been raining for couple of days now. Sometimes foggy mornings, foggy nights. I want to head out with the tripod and take some pictures in the fog and rain, but tied down with work and school work all week. Hopefully it stays wet for the coming week too.

craigs god damn sexy list

Yeah, I've fallen in love with craigslist. I bookmarked it directly to anything and everything Pentax. Man, browsing through flickr really opens your eyes to different styles. Right now I really want a rangefinder. Anything, as long as it's a damn working rangefinder. Can't spend now though, so it'll have to wait.

Been taking a lot of pictures lately, a lot of random fucking pictures. I think I like my outdated manual primes more than the kit lens. I don't mind having to manually focus, but sometimes I do wish I could use the auto focus, especially continuous. Yes I'm really bitching about all things photography this post. That's because it's been the only thing on my mind lately. At least the only thing not ... depressing.

Music. Found two really great artists this week. Thes One and Double K of People Under the Stairs. It's a freestyle alternative rap/hip hop froup. Yes froup. I call them froup, 'cuz they freestyle. I never thought I'd be in to freestyle alternative rap, but shit this shit is sick. Yes I said that. Here's their myspace link. Listen to SF Knights, all of their tracks I like. Expensive at HMV though, 19.99 fucking dollars. You know its like fucking 12 dollars in the States, adjust the fucking currency already!!!!! On the iTunes store it's $9.99 per CD. That's cheap, which leads me to really start using the istore, but once again, CAN'T iSPEND!!!

My computer is giving these really annoying errors. Where it kills my Royal windows theme, reverts back to windows classic theme, and kills my audio. Apparently I have no audio now. Which is realllllllllllllly fucking annoying since i JUST bought my fucking 5.1 surround sound speaker system for the PC. Fucking fuck. I must have angered the GigaGods.

Okay, I don't think the SF Knights on myspace is working, so here is a very bad audio youtube clip. You can't really hear the freestyle, but you know it's awesome. It has to be, with all that BUZZUZUZUZUUZZZZ

A sign?

I pretty much reached the lowest point of my day; I look across the windshield, and what do I see?

tomoror mornigingigng

Yes, tomoror mornigingigng I'm going to wake up extra early, pack my shit, and head to downtown. Hopefully it'll be foggy, but not rainy, so I can snap some pics before I head to class at 8 bitchessssss. I'm gonna hit up that spot I've always wanted to take a pic from, on Broadview south past Danfourth, but before Gerrard. You knowwww, that spot!

Here's a pic from somewhere near the Reference Library.


Update 10:05am
God damnit, I fell alseep past the alarm.... again. So much for that :( Plus it was raining all morning. Well, still have the tripod and camera here, I guess I'll just shoot the same old shit. FUCKIGNDUIHYR@#$^%&*((

Update 3:06pm
Well if the rain and me missing my alarm wasn't bad enough, my parents totally fucking crapped on my day. As usual. They don't give me a a fucking heads up, and ALWAYS, tell me the DAY OF that I need to fucking do something for them. Then I have to FUCKING cancel anything and everything I've planned, blow off allllllllll my previews arrangements and fucking BE HAPPY ABOUT IT?!?! And I'm not fucking blowing this out of proportion, in-fucking-fact my reaction to this is sooooooooooooooooooooo fucking laid back, 'cuz the amount of times they do this same shit to me would proportionately cause me to lift this fucking monitor and fucking throw it at the wall. Then fucking tear apart every fucking thing in this room till I'm fucking exhausted or I run out of shit to fucking tear apart. And fucking worst of all, IIIIIIII SEEM LIKE THE FUCKING ASSWIPE WHO CANCELS OUT AT THE LAST MINUTE. LIKE FUCK YOU TOO!! DO YOU THINK I HAVE A FUCKING CHOICE???????? DO YOU?? And that's how my day went.

On a much much lighter note, I decided to just not give a fuck, focus on infinity, and shoot the fuck away. Here are the fucking results: (will post whenever the fuck i feel like)

sRGB or AdobeRGB?

Come to think of it, it's been a really long time since I made any real posts. Lately, I've just been posting youtube shit and random short things. I'm going to try to post at least one real post a week, try to keep this blog alive. The day before yesterday I had a look around this blog, went far back and found some things I totally forgot posting about. Which reminded me, why I started blogging in the first place. Help me remember things.... and make fun of people. Okay, more of the second one. Since I have the k10 now, all those pictures I've taken also help me remember things. They're like triggers, which help get those stored memories back.

So what are all the things I'm up to now.... Trying to get my head around color spaces, I can't figure out which is the safest to use, or best. But best isn't necessarily the "best" , I mean I guess it all really depends on what it's for. Ahhhh fuck, this is annoying. sRGB looks great on the monitor, but is it really what I saw? There's so many things I don't know about it. I currently shoot in AdobeRGB, but I save my exports for web in sRGB. Still need to read this PDF on color management by Adobe, but I got work. Oh did I mention all the school work. I wish I would just win the damn lottery, then I could actually spend my life doing things I like/want to do!!

Anyways, I'll keep this blog going. It's got too much shit to crap up now. For now, heres a picture I just finished working on:

RIP Roxanne

This is the only thing I have left to remind me of Roxanne. The rim I dinged on that seriously fucked up pothole.

I remember that day like yesterday. Driving back from school, rainy, windshield fogged, construction, and BAM! Ran over a giant pothole, not only popping my tire, but denting my damn rim. My first flat tire. Roxanne sure taught me a lot of things. Responsibility, mechanics, women, you name it, she popped a tire for it.

Horatio Caine sure has some fucking big shoes to fill.

Got bored, decided to go around the house and take pictures. Here is our very very old treadmill. This thing is like a 100+ years old, it runs on man power for Christ sake.

There's many odd things in my house, this is one of them.

Holy shit

Damnnnnnnnnnnnn. Yes, in between studying for my law quiz and trying not to sleep, im posting. BITCHESS
