Well, I suppose it's about time I migrate away from Xanga to start a new blog. Since I'm a fan of simple layouts, Blogger seems like the best choice around. So, I'm trying this new thing out.
I voted for the first time today, decided to play my part in the contested Democratic Primary. I have no idea who's going to win California, so it'll be exciting. However, the old ladies at the voting booth gave me a hard time because:
1. It's my first time voting, so really I have little clue of what I'm doing
2. I still have my Texas Driver's license and did not have proof that I live at my current address
3. I didn't bring my voter's booklet (nothing on it ever told me to bring the thing)
Despite that, I was able to cast a provisional vote, meaning that they'll check my eligibility before counting my vote. The whole punching down the marker thing was fun though.
The Superbowl this year has to be the best Superbowl I've seen in recent memory. Even the commercials are above par. I watched the game in this mindset: if the Patriots win, I witness history. If the Giants win, I witness one of the greatest upsets of all time. Truth to be told, I'm really glad the Giants won, because I'm tired of the collective fellatio Pats have received from every media outlet over the last two weeks.
USC still owes me my January's pay plus reimbursements of my November trip to Chicago. While I'm tired of USC's ineptitude at paying students on time, the more I think about it the more I get angry and frustrated. Who's gonna pay for my auto-insurance? Damn you Trojans.
Chinese new year is a couple days away, and this will be the first time I won't receive a red envelope full of money. I wish I were back in Houston with my family (for the money :) ) but alas, I'm 24 and probably too old to receive money nowadays.
On another note, if I really managed my finances well last fall, I probably would be a little better off right now. Oh well.
Happy Chinese New Year.
