I hate my father’s computer.

By The Eva Monkey on Tuesday, May 30th, 2006 in Personal.

First of all, I want to know who else on this planet besides my father uses a trackball mouse. There must be enough of them out there, otherwise they wouldn’t make them. Drives me nuts. Imprecise, gives me a cramp. And the trackball mouse is just starters. He’s also got his security so high that […]

Sweet Blessed Freedom

By The Eva Monkey on Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006 in Personal.

I may at some point have mentioned that I haven’t had a proper summer vacation for some time now. I don’t think I need to tell you that college absorbs free time the way a sponge absorbs water, blood, urine, or any combination of the three. Today marked the last leg of the academic side […]

You might have already heard, but Mainichi did a very nice feature on Evangelion’s tenth anniversary, included are a few articles from a more Japanese perspective, containing some interesting information from “outside the bubble” so to speak. They are definitely worth the time read, so please do so. The episode synopses might be a bit […]

I knocked my Maglite flashlight off of my desk shelf and it landed on my laptop, annihilating my computer’s hard drive. So to all you people out there, don’t be stupid like me, don’t ever put a heavy object where it can fall onto and destory a part of your very being. It’s very strange, […]
