iTouch...? Really?
I totally agree. I hate people that call it iTouch.
But in the defense of the noobs that can’t tell the difference, the new iPod headphones also have the earpiece deal on them now too, so it’s not really an accurate determination. Nonetheless, I agree.

Okay, so Eric and I were talking before about how we hate that people call iPod Touches “iTouches.” Where this came...

Subject: Hey
Rant Mode: On
I get so annoyed when I get an email and the subject is “Hey” or “Hello” or “A Quick Email”. The purpose of a subject is to provide some information on what the message is about, not just some random greeting.
I’d even rather see the dreaded “(no subject)” as opposed to subject that has nothing to do with anything.

I Love Theatre
And by love…I mean hate. (Not really, but kind of).
Anyway, I just sat through a two hour run of a show that I’m working on. My crew assignment is as a dresser for the performances, but we were required to see a performance. I tell you, the entire crew was SO lost the entire time. Granted, I don’t actually need to know what’s happening in the show since I’ll be in...
Mini Walk of Shame
AJ: You know what really bothers me...?
Me: What really bothers you?
AJ: Touching myself...then having to put pants back on after...it's like a mini walk of shame. I just feel disgraceful.

Finally! This issue was annoying me so much.
From MacRumors: Macworld notes that Apple has instituted a new feature that allows iTunes Store users to upgrade their music libraries to iTunes Plus tracks on either a per-track or per-album basis. At Macworld San Francisco, Apple announced a number of changes to the iTunes Store, including the immediate removal of digital rights management (DRM) from...

Claim Your Package After 4:00 PM
Can someone please explain the logic of this policy to me? Here at SU, among other places, when you get a package it gets sent to the main desk where it is numbered, put into the back room and a slip is generated and put in your mailbox telling you that you have a package waiting. At the bottom it says:
Package may be picked up between 4:00 PM and 10:00 PM daily.
Now, here is my problem. If...

Hi Guys.
Let me just say that I don’t want to tell you how to use your tumblrs, hell mine is the probably the most retarded one out there.
But, can you guys not have conversations through reblogs please. Use AIM, email, a private tumblr, your options are many.
I really like you guys otherwise.
Thanks,

I'm a DRP!
Today was pretty cool. I spent most of it at SUA. First, I got here around 1:00 to do MTS (Medical Transport Service) training and I got to drive the medical vans around. At 1:30, I got a text from one of the supervisors telling me that I was officially a DRP! This means now I’m a driver progression and can drive the ambulance on shifts. I’m still here now on my last official Attendant...

I Hate Ignorance
So, I’m sitting in my Introduction to Theatre class, still sick with a head cold and surrounded by screaming actors and musical theatre students all screaming at the top of their lungs gossiping, singing and yelling at eachother. Why, as a stage manager I have to take this class, I’ll never fully understand. So Geri, the professor, walks in and questions if anyone saw the Inauguration....

I'm Judging You
Lauren: If I ask you a lame question do you promise not to judge me?
Me: Ok.
Lauren: Do you love me as much as cory loves topanga?

You Can Charge Almost Anything...
Me: I wish there was a way to like plug yourself in and charge - like an iPhone.
AJ: Yeah, well you can pretty much solve anything by plugging it in, except for that - and premature ejaculation but I hear that's coming quickly.

Me: HAHA!
Are You Sure?

You're Not That Smart
I’m beginning to hate Facebook notes. They’ve become a pseudo blog for people and have become used as an outlet of self expression. Fine. That’s the point! That’s what a blog is for, a Facebook note, hell even a tweet on Twitter but it’s getting extreme. There have been a lot of posts regarding religion, death, people, race, etc. and they almost ALWAYS turn into a...

Staying Home Tomorrow
I just decided I’m not going to class tomorrow. I have an Intro to Theatre class at 11 and a Stagecraft class at 12:30 and since I’m not feeling well and the Inauguration is tomorrow, I decided to stay in.

MLK Dinner
Tonight, well as I’m writing this, it’s technically last night, but anyway, a majority of the people on our floor went to this huge Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration dinner at the Carrier Dome. We had to get kind of dressed up and we all left together, trudged through the slush to the dome. When we got there, there were hundreds of tables across the field. We got our seats (we were...

Driver Training
This morning I woke up around 9:30 AM to go to SUA Quarters for driver training. When my trainer, Brian, got there we drove up to Skytop (south campus parking lot/apartments, etc.) and he let me drive around. I had to do some weaving in and out of street lights, back into to this impossibly small nook/doorway thing (to simulate backing into a hospital) and had to drive along a curb forwards and...

This Weekend
So far, this weekend has been pretty good. On Friday, even though I didn’t have class, I had to wake up at 1:00 ish because I had electrics crew at 2. The electrics crew is one of my spring crew assignments and we had to strike the holiday show and hang the lights for the first show of the semester. It was kind of really boring because she had to explain in detail how to hang a light and it...
