College Saga

still cracks me up. the song they sing while mark leung's sliding around on the ground is gold.

(makes me wonder if the dudes of my class at msm have seen this one, esp eugene and david)

fyi, the fender vg would be one of the coolest guitars i've currently seen around if not for a couple of things:

1)more tunings need to be available, and/or amp settings
2)battery life could be a bit longer or ac/dc would be nice
3)price is way, way too high(at that price i'm wishing it was a les paul or gibson or something like that; $1000+ for a fender?!?)

if you've seen it you'll know what i'm talking about; very unique electric guitar; expect more to come that improve upon the idea. and if you don't, and don't feel compelled to search for yourself, wait for it, because i'll post up some links later in the week or so, and describe it. (as well as describe another electric guitar's design that cracks me up)

some dude was playing 16th notes on the bass drum at guitar center yesterday when i went.

my hands still ache from playing the conga.

edit1:

i had my first phone interview. usually the job interviews are in person right? totally unprepared on this one, as i expected the employer at the end of the conversation to set up a time for me to come in. he didn't ask a lot of questions, just explained shortly what it was, and asked me some stuff. i'm still hoping that it goes through. being able to work on the stanford university campus would be real nice. with microarrays too.

overheard my mom yesterday talking on the phone to possibly john tang's mom(or it could've been karen chiu's mom; my mom's close friends with both), and actually started talking about me playing drums...

(...i think it's a good idea for him; maybe it'll improve his hand-eye-leg coordination...)

(...no, i don't want to get him a set; i don't want the neighbors to sue us, and i don't want to go deaf...)
