Rain And Tornado

Tornado warning, what?  Here's a quote from the LA Times Blog because I don't really want to try to rephrase it:

"The National Weather Service has issued a tornado warning for the South Los Angeles, Long Beach and Whittier areas as a powerful new storm moves ashore.

The warning is expected to be in place for at least 45 minutes.

Radar shows heavy rain falling in Long Beach, with the storm moving in at 35 mph to the northeast. There were also reports of thunder and lightning across the region.

Forecasters said the storm was capable of producing a tornado, but there was no evidence at this time that any tornadoes have developed on land.

The tornado warning was extended to Orange County. In Seal Beach, officials were urging people to get off the beach. In San Pedro, the Los Angeles Fire Department reported major street flooding in areas near the harbor and ocean"

Interesting.  Very interesting indeed.

I don't have much comment on this other than I was in class the entire time the "scare" was about...I missed out.

Sorry if today's post is short.  Like I said in last week's, I don't have time.  There is lots to do and little time to do it and, sorry to say, this blog does not get the priority.

Interterm is going well. We're in our last week (already) and it's definitely not slowing down.  I am (or will be later today) writing a 10-12 page research report on the "auteur" that is Wes Anderson.  So over the last 5 days, I have pretty much watched a Wes Anderson flick every night.  Wes Anderson.  This guy, man.  So unique and has so many small little tendencies that stick out.  That was poorly worded.  Maybe I'll post my report on here next week.  If you are a fan of Wes Anderson's, what is your favorite film of his?  I personally enjoy "The Royal Tenenbaums" for than any other, but, as I figured out last night, "The Darjeeling Limited" has an incredible amount of symbolism which was rather intriguing.  Yes.

I have two more things for you.  First, Myspace is back in business.  Yes, you realize that was prime real estate in Junior High School, or whenever.  Fact is, Facebook and Twitter have taken the reigns of social networking.  There is a special place in my heart for Myspace though:  Entitled "So I haven't posted a blog since Sunday, December 04, 2005 "

Decently interesting. 

I have grown a lot since then in height, intelligence, maturity, and numerous others.

So here's the deal:

I still think Myspace is cool.  I have always enjoyed the ability to customize the profile, and even though the majority of profiles simply induce seizure, I have a special place in my heart for Myspace.  I can attribute my introduction to Graphic Design and other media to Myspace, something that Facebook hasn't and may never do.  I am grateful.

That's my opinion/life experience.


I have a real blog.  If you like blogs, you should read it: http://emliv.blogspot.com

So fact is, as far as design, Myspace OWNS all other social networking sites.  Maybe not all, but you know what I mean.  So, a few weeks ago, I redesigned my profile.  You need to check it out because MYSPACE IS BACK!

plus, Tom is lonely.

In other news, I stumbled across a video that I started playing and then immeditely felt relaxed.  These guys play the hang drum and make beauftiful music.  Worth a listen:

Well.  That's it.  I hope you are having a nice day today.  Rain or shine.  Dark or light.  Nice.

Try it

Today I wore a suit 'cept my suit jacket was a little different.  It rained last night, that's all I know.

There will not be much in this post because I have to deal with lost time.  It's really too bad, but I guess a part of life, right?

I do have some content for you which won't leave you completely hung out to dry.

On Sunday, I went with Mr. Chase Wagner and Ms. Paige Echarte to Saddleback Church (which is QUITE the place) and then to Ms. Paige Echarte's house in Dana Point.  For your viewing pleasure, I have some photography that was taken on that Sunday.  It was a much needed break from Interterm and it was nice to start shooting again. 

Here's one more that I like a little bit:

And lastly, I have a video for you.







Does that look intense or what?! I grew up on LEGOs and I owe a good section of my heart to the little building blocks. This movie looks like actual LEGO people moving around and looks GNARLY. I'd see it, no doubt in my mind.





So that's it folks. I wish I could have expanded on things, especially about actual happenings that took place last week, the weekend, or today. I don't have time though. I guess that is the nature of interterm.


Have a good one. (I've been saying that a lot lately. Not really sure why.)


Serious.

It's January 6th, the first Wednesday of 2010.  Can it be any more exciting?  That is a rhetorical question.  I guess you could be excited, or you could be lulled; either way, it is fact and you can't do anything about it.

What did you do you for New Year's Eve?  I made an interesting observation about New Years this year, and that is that the party scene is much less than that of Halloween for instance.  It seems like people just chillax as they wait for the big ball in NYC to dropax.  I know that's what we did and it was a good time.  Definitely fulfilled my New Year's Eve necessity.  You want to know what we do on New Year's Eve?




Decently accurate.

The few days of break I had were excellent.  I enjoyed seeing friends and family in good ol' Simi Valley.  When you go back there, it's like you never left.  I'd think it would be like that for every place on the planet, but maybe not.  I'm not one to say.  Seeing extended family was also excellent.  Talk about a brief summary.

I am back at Biola as of now taking 5 credits during the 3 weeks of interterm.  It is quite the Biola experience as the campus is the definition of e-m-p-t-y.  Not even kidding.  Look up the word "empty" in the visual dictionary and you will see a picture of the campus.  I will admit it is kind of nice.  Yeah, the backside (my floor) is vacant and can be decently lonely, but hey! when is there time for a social life when you are a crash course in schooling?  Call it a distraction.  So if you didn't catch the drift, interterm is a good experience and worth the time, effort, and money.  Hopefully I can say the same in three weeks. 


One thing I definitely do like about interterm is that there is very little waiting and very little room for procrastination.  Nine times out of ten an assignment is due the next day.  So none of this: "Oh, I'm not in the mood, I'll just do it tomorrow." It's: "Oh, I'm not in the mood, but if I don't do this right now, I will fail the assignment, creating a difficulty in passing the class, which, in turn, wastes time, effort, and money."  I'm a fan, but like I said, we'll have to see if that claim still stands in three weeks.




I have a video for you.  It's a music video that has been put together in a rather interesting way.  I watched it earlier this week and I copied the url, but I haven't watched it since so I really don't know what to say about it.  Check it out and make sure all your valuables are secure because they might fall off of the table.

I'll be gone from KORB on Vimeo.



I don't really have all that much to talk about.  Everyday is the same, monotonous, repetitive, because everyday is the same, monotonous, repetitive.


Have a good day fellow internet user.
