i am terrified of graduating

i know the sixties weren't actually like this

but what if they were



i would just be down at the beach every day

shakin' that thing

bein' a square

engineers in canada wear iron rings to remind them of their accomplishment of becoming an engineer and their responsibility to design well.

that's so cool.

the finalists for the independent games festival got announced (and written up on boingboing). every time this happens and i see games like continuity and limbo and stuff, i wonder if i should have tried to go to a school where i could study game design. of course, it's never too late, but considering i know next to nothing about programming and i'm about to graduate, maybe it is. hm.

i wish i played outside more as a kid.

seein' stars

brad mehldau covering elliott smith's "bottle up and explode!". i like his original stuff, but i think i prefer watching him go nuts on other peoples' songs i already love. like "things behind the sun" by nick drake. that one's good, too.

the fantastic mr. fox

dear wes anderson,
i like your movies a whole lot.
i'm sorry i still haven't watched "the royal tenenbaums".
love,
