so if i wanted to get into school, supposedly with what im reading im meant to go through their community college program first. which'd be interesting. so i guess the best location i could find was the manhatten campus, but yeah, its interesting stuff. so ive got my eyes on the borough of manhattan community college. for now.

associates in applied science? weird. makes sense. but heh, it's a.a.s. lol.

they don't have a whole hell of alot of choice. i guess the thing is i need tofind out what all i need like to get into the main manhatten school. what classes required and all that. because i want to get into the city university of new york, main campus. so i need to know what i need to be able to do that. i mean just looking at it there's: video arts and technology, small business/entrepreneurship, theatre, writing and literature, business administration. these are all associates dgrees.

apparently there's an october 9th viewing of the place. i guess you have to register for it or whatever.

866.583.5729 - BMCC community college. (borough of manhattan community college). i guess you get in here, get a degree, then get into the bigger one, and the better degree.

the thing about wealthy peopl eis they have so much that i wonder if they even work. what do they do with their time. i dont have access to that kind of money, i have to go out into the world andmake my own fortune. what exactly that will be i dont know. how ill do it, i dontknow. but i like the idea of playing with large sums of money. entrepreneurial business is where its at, see in many other professions there's a hardcap to what you can make, but in business, if youre smart enough, you can create things that are widespread and profitable to the point where its not really a necessity to work any longer. thats teh kind of funditure i'd like to pursue. it's the sort of lifestyle i've had up until now and it's what'll help me continue to live like that in the future. but the excitement is not only the chance at alot of money, but really, it feels like the arena worth competing in. its something that can make you insanely rich, or broke, but thats what makes it all exciting. come up with a company idea, change the world, and reap the reward. richard branson is a guy ive seen doing that. but its pretty awesome, and its definately something i want to get involved in.

pirate bay issues drag on, as google recently went through a debacle regarding whether ornot pirate bay was seachable. having read on the founder of google, 36 year old billionaire hailed as visionary, i have a hard time accepting a wikipedia-esque philosophy-bearing dude as a guy whose against the access of a site he'd most likely feel we were all welcome to take a gander at, given the fact that information, as he sees it, is something that's best left free.

if it wasn't for many of these sites, i would've have heard much about stuff i've

lately i've been reading alot about hipsters. now im not sure if i'd call myself one, but things are starting to look that way. i myself don't wear the garb, but i listen to the tunes, and in a way, i do follow the fashion trends too, i just am modest of what i wear, otherwise i like the... flavor of it. im into the culture of it. i come from columbus ohio, or at least that's where i spent four of the last six years. whislt there, i was immersed in hipsterdom, or so i've been told. after all it's been said columbus ohio is the birthplace of hipsters, by certain columbus-residents. i'm not sure i believe it, but i certainly do see alot of the hipster-ish folk out there when i go to visit old friends. the hoodie, colorful clothes and hats, and a certain downward dejection that seems to pull it all together. throw in an eclectic mix of indie music fandom, drug addiction, and party culture, and you've got something along the lines of hipster-ism. whether or not i am one remains to be seen, im not quite sure. my music interest in the indie stems from '03's freshman year @ osu, where i was given oink.me, a site that torrented tunes i'd never before heard, and soon got enamoured in it all. the site eventually disappeared, about two years later, much to my chagrin, but not before i managed to pick through years of brit-pop, as well as a century worth of pop, hits, oldies, jazz, grunge, grime, and the like. new genre's never heard of, a veritable mental renaissance. and then of course i'd go out into the streets and i'd find my people. those that listened to the same, wore sweet stuff, and got laid often. they were my folks. and i guess thats how i was slowly but surely ushered into the world of the hipster. certain places perhaps in the east coast might be called dive bars, but out in columbus, they were just the best place to be. its entirely because the people rocked. not some architecture-phile-like addiction to old and decrepid spaces. in fact those were of course the first bits, the test to voercome, the first scare thatmade you feel unwelcome and uneasy, its only the people that you realized were the best, roaming the ruins of the bars once grand, finding their vestiges of awesome and friendliness.

blackburn is in the news, i was there from couple months old to... i left there in 91 or 2. if it was 91 i would've been 5. 92 woulda been 6. and then uh, 94 and 95. 8 and 9. so i must've been there from like, a few months old to 6. and then 8 to 9. i was in that town. thats now trending.
