Got to trade shifts with a co-worker so I work the 5pm-1am shift tonight... It's actually kind of nice. OH how I love working the night shift... I actually just got an email back from the boss Letting me know that a L2 DTV position has opened. I am really -REALLY- hoping that I can get it... The job posting closes on Wednesday of this week. So I am scheduling my N+ exam for Tuesday. The real test I need to be studying for is my CCNA. If I could pass that one I would be much more employable I think.... 8 more days until I depart to Cali... Forgot to mention a shoutout to my friend Ben, who made it to California a few months ago from Korea. His band Benzene is pretty awesome- check his site http://www.bzn.co.kr/ or you can get CD's and such from www.interpunk.com


Anyways... No links to software today... Don't feel like talking about it today. I have however tried modding a PSP Slim as of recent... Didn't work so well... not sure what I was doing wrong, but I'll keep trying to get that working.

Also I have been looking into Phones and have been throwing around the idea of getting an Iphone...

I really want the HTC Touch Diamond or pro... but those aren't due until september...and if I get the L2 DTV position then I will definitely need a new phone.

The HTC Raphael is going to be one of the first phones to have the Android OS on it... so as soon as that comes out i'll be needing to obtain...

I was looking at the HTC Tilt, and the Nokia N95... The Tilt is really cool seeing as it has the keyboard and windows mobile 6, is really affordable, and the touch screen features I need... as opposed to the Nokia N95 which has every feature under the sun EXCEPT for the touch screen that I need... not to mention it is like 9 million dollars...

I don't know... right now it's pretty much between the Tilt, and the new iphone.

I was actually looking at iphone mods and apps, and I found one that works with xbox media center... which I mistakingly got confused with the xbox 360's ability to link with media center.

Actually I found http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Installation_Requirements

It is actually really cool, and I might try and softmod my regular xbox into doing that... seeing as well... it just sits in my room with no cables attached to it.

Oh Yeah, on Friday I made it out to A1 Cards and Comics in the Northway mall in Anchorage. I obtained 2 new PVC anime figurines... When I saw that they had Fate/Stay night PVC's I HAD to buy them... despite the fact i'm going to comic con and will have more than enough figures to buy.... here's some pics to prove that it DID happen.



















I was also browsing around some tech blogs... One popular one I frequent:Engadget has a place to preorder the Rockband 2 Premium Drumkit! ... it looks so amazing! Metal Kick Pedal and everything. Appearantly for now you'll be able to hit either the tom or the symbol for rockband 1 and for rockband 2 i'm guessing(Hoping) there will be 2 extra buttons to worry about. This Kit runs about 300 dollars and also FINALLY has a metal kick pedal... I just might end up buying this kit so that I can play DTX Mania As well... Gotta play DIR EN GREY on the drums!
Hmm yeah... anyways Yesterday was my pal andrew's birthday... we got some yu gi oh cards and played a few rounds of that after work... went pretty good... maybe i'll try to start playing that? ... who knows! ... that really reminds me that I have to put yu gi oh back on my DS for the trip.

Other than that... right now I can't think of anything more to talk about right this second... I think that there is an outage developing right now, so I should get on that... I should also be studying for N+...

Peace-
