Omg... I have a job interview in a few short hours and I can't find my nice khakis!!! Of course, it's a wonder I can find anything in this room :P --kale

I went to the petstore today. They have rats and birds and hamster toys and everything else you'd ever want to get you pet! And even stuff you would never! Yayayayayayay! --kale

I found #sidekick on efnet. Now I'm cool.

oh yeah, in addition, I spent my saturday night staring at python -- I hax0red an irc bot to give you an aimbridge-esque bot... Send a message to kaleirc on aim to share your thoughts with #sidekick. Abuse and be destroyed. DESTROYED I SAY MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA --kale

Okay, not really just got my lobes stretched fro 10g to 8g. Got cute little tubes put in... My ultimate goal is to get to 0g -- just 4 hops away! Then I will be sexy and the ladies won't be able to resist me. --kale

Spending it drinking Riesling wine (I used to live not a half hour from where they grow the grapes for it... Good ol' Mosel River region), eating Chinese take-out, and eatching Spirited Away on DVD with my girlfriend. Ahhh, the joy of import DVDs on a region-hacked DVD player :D ...Up next is Shaolin Soccer to round out the night. Score one for the good guys! --kale

Brody, I guess it all depends on what your field of study is, really... If you're going into a field where you're basically guaranteed a job -- business, compsci, polisci, the sciences, etc. I don't know what your major is, but as an art major, it's becoming increasingly obvious that I'm going to have a harder time making money in my field of choice than an engineering student. With that weighing on my mind heavily, it is certainly not in my best interest to carry $40,000 in debt, as I foresee that amount being extremely hard to pay off. I'm pretty sure ill have a hard enough time paying the bills once the free money stops coming in.

Personally, I don't think the debt's worth it. I like free money,, which is why I'm going to a cheaper state school as opposed to a costly private school to which I got accepted but was only offered a quarter of the $25.000/year tuition in scholarships. Gives me more time to focus on things like class, my art, friends, school clubs, etc as opposed to having to take on a part-time job or two.

Just my $.02. --kale

Go with the one that offers you the most money. I'm currently attending Florida State because they're paying me to attend -- the school gives me enough money to pay the rent on my apartment, buy me food, pay for social outings, and also various luxuries (like my hiptop). The school isn't as good as various others, but I'd much rather earn money off school than graduate with $40,000 in debt. --kale

Yayayayay for bingo! Old people, lotsa smoke, Elks, and random numbers being yelled out -- I don't know of anything more exciting! My pal Jenna here won $25, much to the chagrin of the old codgers surrounding us. Wish me luck, mobloggers of the world. --kale

Welp, I felt like I needed a change, and this was an easy one to make.

Here are some before an during photos -- after to follow. Suffice to say, I now have very little hair, much to my girlfriend's distaste. --kale

We had a critique in my digital photo class today. My piece is the thin strip -- a linear collage of a buncha my hiptop photos arranged chronologically. It's about three feet long at present -- plan is to keep adding to it see how long I can make it. I also want to do a similar piece organizing the pics by subject, overlapping the groups a la a crossword by intersecting pictures that fit into more than one group. Hiptop art! My professor loved it and gave me an A. Yay! I think I'll possibly use the pics in a photomosaic too, since they seem well suited for that as well. --kale
