Well, it has been a few days, most of which have been spent encoding video for my iPod, a long and at times frustrating process. im using a couple free programs, one of which is called iSquint. Now, that’s a really good program because it can do multiple files at once, you don’t have to keep dragging new ones in every time one is finished. but it only encodes 95% of the things you put on that list. anyway so it can take a while to figure out which it hasn’t encoded and use MPEG StreamClip to do the remaining files... *Yawn* quite a boring topic. on a slightly less boring note, although, still quite boring and time consuming was looking up information on colleges and what kind of classes i would want to take. after a little bit of research, i came up with the fallowing areas of study: Graphics Design, Visual Effects and Motion Graphics, Computer Engineering, and computer Science. now, as you can tell, all the career paths that fallow each of those courses will most likely completely rot one half of my brain; 2 of them are completely analytical, and 2 are completely artsy. i still need to try to find something more in the middle... anyway though, so i spent forever trying to organize all the data that i was getting, and finally, i remembered about the program Keynote which is like PowerPoint, but better, because its REALLY easy to use (i pretty much taught myself how to use it at school in half an hour) but it was still a bit of a bitch making everything work... anyway, like i said, also rather dry... the only other thing i can think of that i did was watch how to loose a guy in 10 days, which wasn’t that bad for being a complete chick flick...

Good god, All of that, and i didnt mention a THING about the only thign that anybody might really care about if they were to care about anything ive ever written...Christmas! well, lets see, the biggest thing that i got was a 60 Gig iPod. going from there, a key to the van(though not the actual van...) Batman Begins, The Penultimate peril by lemony snicket, a clock, some candy, and of course, what Christmas is complete without cloths!? honestly, i got 3 shirts, all of which were too small... im still trying to figure if i should be flattered by that or offended.... anyway, yes, that was what i got, and if you havent already told me what you got, or if you have and you want to tell me again, do tell...
