No luck

Well we didn't get any bites yesterday, but it is still nice to go out on the boat. The only thing is that being out on the ocean for 5 hours is pretty damn tiring. I got about 13 hours of sleep last night, which is really really rare for me.


Well some good news. The second of four Futurama "movies" just came out, and if you're a fan of the show I suggest you go pick it up. I have movies in quotation marks because these were written to be split into three half-hour episodes and it kind of shows. After one viewing, I have to say that I kinda liked it better than the first one. I thought it was funnier and felt more like where the series left off. Go watch it. Later.

Gone Fishin!

Going fishin tomorrow with Kuba and his uncle so I'll be getting up 5:30am. We usually just go trolling but we might get to do some bottom fishing if the ocean is calm enough. We're hoping for an ono or ahi, but I'll be happy with anything we catch. There's nothing quite like the rush you get when you hear that line start reeling and the excitement grows even more when you finally realize what you've got as it jumps out of the water. It's something that I think everyone should experience at least once in their life. I'll tell you this though: fresh fish is always awesome, but knowing that you fought and reeled in the fish makes it tastes SOOO much better.

For the sake of it

Hmmm haven't updated it in a while and I don't wanna get into that habit. So here's some random thoughts. University of Hawaii College of Pharmacy at Hilo has just attained the status of Candidate which means that graduates from the school are considered the same as those that have graduated from an accredited institution. This definitely changes my plans as UH Hilo CoP has been bumped up to the top of my list. It will definitely be the best option financially and flying home wouldn't be a problem. Plus rent is pretty cheap there and I have family that live in the area. And I LIKE Hilo...I think that it'll be an awesome place to study since, you know, there isn't much to do. So now I just have to hope that I get accepted ;)

Speaking of which, I plan on taking the PCATs in August!? So if you don't see me out that much in the next couple of months, it'll be because I'm studying for the test. I just hope that I can get my act together and pull this one out. And so this post isn't all text, here's a picture I took of a common house fly:

Ringtone

I figured that watching "Short hair, butter thighs" wouldn't be enough, so here is the ringtone:

By the way, this site is actually pretty good for finding ringtones and wallpapers and all that other good stuff for your phone. And it's all FREE.

Homemade granola

I haven't figured out what I want to post on this blog, so I'll try talking about something that I like to do. I made some granola last night to put into cereal or yogurt. I don't know why but I think that making things from scratch is pretty fun and it's always piqued my interest. Maybe that's why I like watching Good Eats on the food network. Anyway, you can customize it to fit what you want and the product usually ends up being superior to anything store bought. Now if you know me then you already know that I'm fairly adept in the kitchen, but you would be surprised at how simple some things are to make. For example, granola. Its basically just oats, but then you can add whatever you like to it. For mine, I added shredded coconut, almonds, and raisins. That's it. Then there's the flavoring, which was vegetable oil, honey, maple syrup, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla. Just mix it all together, bake it for about 15 minutes, then BOOM you've got granola. Yeah, I think I like talking about food. Probably gonna do it more.

BTDub, some people brought up bringing back game night Monday's again. It's something that I started last year and it went on for about three weeks. I would invite friends over for some dinner and we would just play some board game like Cranium, Balderdash, or Pictionary. I know that it sounds pretty lame but it was actually kinda fun because everybody would get into it. It was also a nice night to just take it easy and recover from the weekend. But due to the cost of cooking for people, work, school, and people showing up three hours late, game night came to an end. So the plan is that if it does come back, it would probably stay as Monday nights, but start at a later time, probably around 8 or 9 o'clock. The only food that would be served is pupus and/or dessert.

Here is the video featuring rapper Juan P. Lyrical genius!!!

Gonna Stick with Blogger

Well I think that I'm just going to use the picture uploader from blogger for now. It works pretty well. Here are some pictures from the National Zoo as well as the Sculpture Garden. Maybe the artist for the last sculpture was lonely!?

Back from DC

Well I just got back from my trip to our nations capital. This trip was a lot of fun but probably the most tiring. I was never able to adjust to Eastern time since we were only there for a little while so this trip completely fucked up my sleep schedule. But I'm getting back on track. I've got quite a few pictures that I'll put in my next post. Too tired right now to post anything else.

I've really gotta stop doing these posts past 2:00 in the morning.

Here's one picture:

I promise that I will work on customizing my blog page so that it isn't so boring. It'll be sleek and simple. Well today was my day off, which worked out great since we were filming till about 2:00 in the morning last night. We are entering a film in the Showdown in Chinatown. The theme for this month is comedy and it must include the line "I'm voting for Obama." I don't want to spoil anything, so all I'll say is that we're doing a music video. Needless to say, this has been one of the funnest movies to shoot so far and I have a lot of confidence that the end product will turn out awesome thanks to our director and editor Jon. If you can make it, the showing is going to be downtown (duh!) at the bar Next Door at about 8:00, $10 at the door.

Why not?

Well I figured that I would give this blogging thing a try. I don't really know who's planning on reading this, but I'm doing this more for me so we'll see.
