I think it’s quite possible that nobody reads this page anymore.

January 24, 2007 – 10:51 am

There was once a time I had a glimmer of an idea to create a website. On this website I would tell tales of my exploits as a web programmer. Give bits and pieces of information of what I was working on, perhaps suggestions, little algorithmic nuances in my life. Then I bought a car. Once that began to get old, I dove headlong into djing. Somehow djing has taken me back into writing code again, in JSP of all things. Along with writing code for my added employer, Vital Vinyl I’ve come to experience 60+ hour work weeks regularly.

Ever since I turned 16 (this is the part where I tell a story of my past in an attempt to give the reader insight into my life) I’ve been a bit of a workaholic. 1 job has just never seemed like enough. At 17 I was working at the Board of Education in Superior and Mcdonalds. My record is 4 jobs, working at 2 McDonalds restaurants, the Board of Education, and also djing schools and weddings. What was I thinking? I was slightly depressed at the time, probably for about a month or so. When I wasn’t working, I was unleashing my zerglings and hydralisks upon unsuspecting foes.

Fast forward to today, I’m tired of working. For a while I worked 1 job, just here in my cubical, helping fix the fingerprints of the world. At some point I decided to start djing weekly in a club again, then decided to help out at the record store. Oh wait, I already had 2 online radio shows I was doing. For added spice, I’ve now added 2 more nights at a local lounge. Holy schnikes, I’m working over 60 hours a week now. Granted, lots of this time I enjoy and I’m not entirely commited to being at the new place twice a week, but still, it adds up. I have to admit that there’s a bit of comfort going from one work place to the next. On the other hand, sometimes you just want to sleep. We’ll all be dead in the blink of an eye anyways right? Well it’s a blink of an eye if you consider how long the earth has been around.

I’d like to say I’ll get this website going some day. Perhaps if I buy a digital camera I’ll have more things to post. Maybe bits of code? I’ve decided eventually I’ll shed this Nucleus CMS and go to wordpress. Things have changed so much, in the past I’d only use something I had written. It’s funny how so many things change, yet a few stay the exact same. Perhaps you’re one of the people that checks this website once a week, only to not be surprised there is no updated post. There’s the chance you haven’t checked this page for months (and I don’t blame you), or perhaps you just stopped by because I told you my email address and you wanted to see what was here. Either way, thanks for stopping by. and say something in the shoutbox.

  3. I feel that being Japanese requires honor at all facites of writing. I bring you honor and peace from the emperor. If you just got yourself on a budget it would start coming together. You could quit your jobs. All of them. We could all quit together and be happy and po.
