A Master Plan for Hedonism



As the 2006-07 rugby season wraps up, and I see some changes coming at my university, I feel obligated to think of something to do for Spring Break, which, here at the Beach, falls on the first week of April, when the cherry blossoms are going through their usual serenade by aspiring young otaku troubadours in Tokyo.

I have a few assignments that I have to do that week; namely, group projects. I have to come up with a program using Visual Basic for a group project, while I also have a project to do in Business Telecommunications. I plan to utilize either Bluetoth, Wireless LAN, or on Ethernet. I’m going to have to prepare something big, else this can make or break my grade.

Not to mention, the week before sees me go through the midterm runs, so making some drawings will be on the back burner until my midterms are done next week.


I’m starting to warm to Meyrin Hawke from Gundam SEED. Maybe it’s the twintails, or what she uses as casual gear, but outside of Lacus Clyne, she gets my vote. Her sister Lunamaria is a close third.

I’ve been listening to Tommy February6’s “Lonely In Gorgeous for over a year know, well over a year to be exact, and I never seem to get tired of listening to the song. Maybe it’s the refrain to the chorus, the hooks, the beat, the synthesizing melody, or the fact that Tomoko Kawase simply knows her synth pop, but it’s a timeless song that is great when cruising down Akihabara, and the neon ads, on a decked-out, sleek Mistubishi...for a commercial on NHK or TBS.

I haven’t fasted this frequently since way back when. With the Lenten season closing up, I have been unconsciously skipping meals to get to my classes. Even surprising, I am still conscious, after not eating for over half a day. Maybe those darn Quaker Oats from hell had something to do with it.

And one wonders, how does one make Quaker Oats from Hell? Simple: pour 8 to 10 packets of Quaker Oats into a large bowl, add 6 cups of milk, flavored syrups if desired, then pop it in the microwave for 6:66. It’s a bit dry, but quite filling. And no hot sauce needed!
