Hey, David. Yeah, you. Write more, I’m not a one-man army (though I play one in video games all the time).
Speaking of which, I haven’t talked about video games in a while. So here goes!

PC - Half-Life 2: Episode 2 - Just beat this last Tuesday night. It was a bit of a chore, as [...]
Wow, so, Super Tuesday (or Wednesday for me). I’m sure that, if you’re terribly curious, you can read all the information, statistics, exit polls, and punditry you’ll ever want regarding this. So, in the interests of not boring our dear readers to death, I’ll only touch on two things:

Superdelegates – Superdelegates, or unpledged delegates, are [...]
I wanted perfection, and I got Eli Manning. That sour taste in my mouth isn’t just me forgetting to brush my teeth this morning, or the blackened and burned coffee in my cup. Eli Manning won a Superbowl last Sunday.
Allow me to cut and paste a message I sent to my friend on January 15th, [...]
For shame. I am terribly irresponsible, and missed the deadline for my monthly Japanese correspondence course test. I can submit it late, but only once. If I do it more than this one time, I lose the ability to drop one of the grades. I don’t think I’ll do badly enough on any of them [...]
Tagged culture, English, JapaneseTexting in Japan is kind of a big deal. That is, to say, that it’s analogous to actually talking on the phone in America.

I wanted to write something earlier, but I couldn’t seem to find a moment when I wasn’t horribly distracted by countless other things. Much of that has passed, though, and I find myself with a welcome moment of respite.
My work load for the past semester was pretty [...]
I’m currently working on some materials and plans for next week’s classes. More specifically, I’m concocting an elaborate vocabulary review game for seventh graders as well as preparing Jeopardy questions for my eighth graders. Fun times to be had by all, I assure you.

This just in: Bill Richardson is dropping out of the race for president. Unfortunately, he’s still in the race for VP or a cabinet position.
I’ll admit, I thought his experience would have made him a good president at first. Then he proceeded to remind me of it at every turn. Here’s a [...]
It seems my dance card might be getting more full in the next coming month.
Right now, my job description is as follows: Assist teachers in ESL instruction in middle school classrooms, and lead ESL instruction in elementary school classrooms. They’re different in expectations, curriculum and techniques required, but still fairly similar. That could [...]
This empty void is bothering me, so I’ll fill it with something of comparable worth.
It’s another day at the office, keeping busy and drinking coffee. The semester doesn’t really start until tomorrow, and the rest of the week is filled with testing, so it’ll probably be like this for the next four days.
I was amazed [...]
