Fake Plastic Bass
Posted 2004-02-25 04:18:03 AM | Bass
I need a bass so bad.
I went yesterday with Erik and Yoong to Guitar Center before we went to watch Club Dread to just check out stuff. I played around with three basses. A Spector (around $375), an Ibanez ($600+
. oh wait I don't have that smiley yet.) and a really weird Fender Jazz Bass.
After playing with those three the Ibanez was the best one. Nice slap sound and easy to fret strings. The Fender had no frets (athough it had markers for it) plus it had flat strings which I guess just feel different, not necessarily bad.
But yeah so now I really need a bass.

Lately while stalking some Xanga's I notice that people like to delete some of their posts and pretend they didn't exist (As if a million Xanga posts and comments cried out in terror and were silenced). What's up with that, why do people purposely delete their posts? I hope they at least keep a copy of it somewhere for reference later on when they can say, "Yeah I wrote that and that's how I was feeling at that time"

Assuming they solved P and NP.
From SNPP.
Lisa: What do you say to a boy to let him know you're not interested?
Marge: Well, honey, when I...
Homer: [puts up a hand] Let me handle this, Marge, I've heard 'em all. [enumerating them on his fingers] "I like you as a friend.'' "I think we should see other people.'' "I don't speak English.''
Lisa: I get the idea.
Homer: [not getting the hint] "I'm married to the sea.'' "I don't wanna kill you, but I will.'' ...
Today

Today is probably the only time I regret being Chinese.
Scratch that, regret taking Chinese 2B, having to go to the New Years Festival and missing out on an incredibly crazy concert that I would have been able to go to had it not been for Chinese 2B
I am the sads. :(

I kissed a drunk girl
I kissed a drunk girl, yes I did
Kissed a drunk girl on the lips
I let my guard down
How could I have been so dumb?
Her eyes were open
I know I am not the one (x3)
CA Thursday After Event was happy time for me. I promised David I would "show" him how to work his new camera. And when I say "show" I mean, "Hey this looks like the button I use for my camera."
David forgot his camera at his apartment in CV so when the meeting ended Le's friend was nice enough to drive us over. Only problem was we had 7 people to fit into a 5 person car. So we squish Le and Julie in the passenger seat and Philip, Me and David sat in the back with Jennifer lying on top of us. Haha it was great. I wish I got a picture of that but Jennifer was resting herself on my backpack.
The After Event was to go eat at Jack Shrimp near the Park Place Edwards. The place was nice looking and all but the food is mighty expensive. Luckily we only had to pay 50% of it. I ordered their Jack Shrimp special (which was 16.95). Basically large shrimp in this cajun sauce. I liked it but didn't think it's worth 17 bucks. 8-9 bucks maybe but not 17 bucks.
I also had to prepare a speech for Chinese today about co-habitation. If this is me reading this in the future. Friday (yesterday) was the day where you somewhat redeemed yourself. Self-congratulations are in order.
Lastly, I have to stop being so sad about stupid girls. I mean I don't even know why I crush on girls. On one hand my mind goes, "You must get a girlfriend" and the other half goes "Hey man, be, don't worry about them girls" (My thoughts aren't filled with emoticons or improper grammar, and I also doubt my mind is split in half like that). I generally feel that I don't really want a girlfriend but just needing to have someone to be with. It's about a week until Valentine's Day. Who knows what will happen within a week but I know that I won't force myself into looking stupid and getting into a relationship if I don't feel comfortable with it, no matter how cute the girl is. Although girls with a nice Chinese accent is quite the sexy.
I'm listening to Schoolhouse Rock right now, "The Shot Heard Around The World," and now "I'm Just A Bill" is coming up. Awesome

Apparently I come off an unhuggable and only deemed worthy of "virtual hugs"
