1 more day before I really start my new life

so there's only one more full day until orientation where I get to meet all my new classmates. I don't remember how I felt when I was about to go to hopkins jr. high, but I can imagine that it felt pretty similar to this. The first day of school in junior high will probably feel somewhat similar as well. Except now I'm more prepared to go out and mingle. sweeeeet.

I went to best buy today via the T(that would be subway for people who have never been to boston or don't know a thing about it), it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I took a long time there though, it took me forever to decide what universal remote I wanted for the TV (the remote was lost). I also had to buy new AAA batteries to power my mp3 player. I can't live without it, people at berkeley should remember me with headphones on all the time when I went outside. I think I left my bag of batteries on the plane, which really sucks because there were a lot, and I had a nice little plastic holder for my AAA's that I got in Taiwan. damnit!

So the cool thing was, when I was checking out at Best Buy, I have no idea what the lady at the register was doing, but she just scanned the batteries. What happened to the universal remote? I just put it in the bag along with the batteries. My total came out to be $12.59. !?wtf?! ok, I wasn't gonna complain. I just walked out the store, with my headphones on and went to go look for a new trash can that I did not find. I guess the whole trip wasn't too bad. the grand total came out to be $15.09 because of my roundtrip using the T. not bad for a universal remote and 4 rechargable AAA's. I hope Best Buy doesn't come after me now.


I made some new additions to my perler bead nintendo zoo. So that would be Kirby, Alex (from River City Ransom) getting beat down, and a better, non-symmetrical version of a 1-up mushroom a-la super mario bros. 3. I'm going to need that 1-up when I die within the next few weeks. but I will save that discussion for the future when the time comes.
