OH MANCHII/SNEBBIT/TOM YOU LOVABLE ROGUE YOU!

I was telling him about this rave I want to go to and as soon as he saw AK 1200 was playing he told me I had to go. Now, I'd never heard of this guy so I searched for some of his tracks, (thx internet). I stuck them on my iPod lastnight and didn't get to listen to them till I was on the bus this morning.
Needless to say, I'm totally addicted.
Drum n bass. Oontz.

I approached my parents about going to the rave. (Since I live in their house and it's only courteous to do so). And they were against it, however I'm going regardless. Lol, I think I was invited to the strippers for the same night but I'd rather go to the rave, personally. I mean, I have the internet, what use have I for strippers? XD

I'm sitting almost exactly where I was when I wrote my journal yesterday. Because I don't go to english (because I am dropping it one of these days) classes don't start until later today. But I was up earlier than I needed to be. So I took a bus into the city. Went to the mall. The lineup for coffee was intimidating so I decided to walk around the city. Lots of people on the street were asking for change but I don't carry change cause I only use electronic money 99.9% of the time. I just wandered around, listlessly. Not caring where I went. I'm not even sure what determined my path. But it was a pleasant walk and it was between -1C and 4C so it felt so good. Oh, and I snapped another building picture or two.

My taste in music has grown and changed so much over the past few years. When I was a lot younger, I was so into the 80's, 90's and pop music... (not the good kind of pop, the embarrassing kind). Then I got into metal and rock. I got a midi keyboard and tried to learn how to play but lost interest after about a year.
A year or two ago, a friend who is an artist and musician got me into chiptunes and reintroduced me to 80's music. Around the same time, I started listening to Midnight Snacks. Yes, that W.T. Snacks. His internet radio show introduced me to genres that I had never thought to look into. This was where I developed my love of glitch. I also was watching CSI as much as I could and really liked the music they used. About half a year after this, a friend introduced me to indie music, a la the Paper Chase and an invite to oink. I love the Paper Chase. Now with last.fm, I've had a much easier time finding music I like and then finding music similar to it, and I've been especially into rave, trance, electronic, dance and techno lately.

Cause I know if you´re in love with me tonight,
we're ravin' through the night." - Raver's Fantasy, by Tune Up

It seems one of my coworkers quit. No one seems to care anymore. No, I don't intend to stay at this job. No, I don't think produce is as important as being a programmer or something, but I do think the job deserves the same respect from the worker. The company keeps hiring children, still wet behind the ears, and they need their hands held through everything. Some of them couldn't care less about showing up for work and sometimes leave us to do their share of the work. And they get away with it because they are unionized. (Don't get me wrong, I like our union cause they keep getting our wages raised and the company I work for would very likely treat us even worse without the union... they like to cut costs). I have a sense of responsibility. I even had it when I was younger and taught martial arts. I've stayed late a few times when it was needed to prevent the department from losing a lot of money. So yeah, since my coworker quit, there is no one to do the close tonight. They called everyone. At first I said I'd rather not because this is the middle of the week and I have school, and they tried to find someone else, but they called me back and said there was no one else, so although I really don't want to, I'm going to close the department tonight. I need the extra money anyway. I also, in an odd way, enjoy the fact that I am needed. Kinda makes me feel like I have a purpose. Again, I got to set my terms so I said I'm out of there half an hour early and they are ok with that.

I've been wondering, do you, the readers of my blog, enjoy reading it? Is it like a form of entertainment? Is it interesting? I dunno why I was wondering, just curious I guess, but plz feedback!

P.S.
Me having a credit card is a bad thing D:
Especially when I just impulsively buy things I can't afford.
;_;

P.P.S
I remembered that I hadn't been eating much lately, so I was curious and found out I weigh like 6lbs less than a week or 2 ago. (lol, I got used to checking my weight when I used to train). *shrugs*
