Aeris February 26 at 12:04pm
Lol I would like to apologize for you seeing me naked last night in my room haha. I didn’t think much about it because it was late. And I saw you pull up to the gate. And immediately shut the light off. Lol. Sorry again!
the back story behind this is, i was sick last week and i slept all day thursday, woke up at 12am friday morning, then decided to go get groceries at wal-mart, after getting back home from that adventure, i drive up to the gate, and i can see Aeris naked inside her room because she has her windows open, so net gain for james 
after i am sitting there for about 10mins cause my clicker for my gate works half the time, she then notices my car and blacks out the lights. so the real question is it voyeurism if it is by accident?
oh yeah… dont mind if i do. hah
awesome half pint
this little kid is hilariously cute when he sings, especially when he starts rocking out. haha oh yeah i guess this is a wedding song too.
taxes are completed
so i finished my 2009 taxes and im getting about $2,500 back… though im going to set aside 20% in my saving then use the rest to pay off a credit card. That will definitely boost my current savings from $352 to $852!! i am pretty excited that I have saved this much, never really ever saved money like this before but it makes me feel good
I guess the thing to do is to open up a savings account, maybe ill open it with a different bank besides commerce, so its harder for me to access it.
well with this savings i can definitely start planning to try to get out to italy! just hopefully my parents will cover the tuition for that month of classes and my boss will let me go… since it is during bicycle season (jun-jul) :/
2hrs late to work :(
so yesterday i was two hours late for work…. it was a disaster, i felt terrible all day, and my boss and manager seemed pissed/disappointed at me…
test failure
so with the combination of google waving, blog designing, music reviewing, and nes playing last night, eventually accumulated into me failing an econ test today 
tis a sad day.
studying… more like wasting time blogging
so i should have been studying all day, but instead i have been working on my blogs all day… full failure, but right now im getting on the horse to study for some economics.
a great cup of coffee!

this explains itself
HURRAY!
i just registered doepicshit.net and james-lim.com and starting my blog plans.
this is the begging of some restructuring, where james-lim.com my main domain that lists all my active domains and will be my online cv.
i want to evolve doepicshit.net into a project of somesorts, setup a fixie culture blog with ridehardturnleft, my new blog will hopefully be rawrmeanslove.com, and searchpartydestroy.com will be my music/concert travel blog.
re-organizing
next project has been cleaning the apartment and one of my 500gb hdd of all the junk on it. hopefully i can build up this shelf that ive been putting off for a good 5months… haha we will see if it happens.
the new guy
i feel bad saying this, but i need to put it out there i do not like the new guy at work. i do not know why hes a cool dood, just he does not click with my personality… he is kind of like an awkward nerdy guy shoved in a snow boarding skiing, american sports loving kid, with a funny/annoying laugh. i actually feel really terrible about this, but i do not know what else to do… i am kinda dumbfounded right now. hah.
getting lazy again
hey ive been trying to update my blog lately but started neglecting it again… though i did get a lot accomplished since my last post a during the end of december.
lets see, i have completely organized my music which includes tagging, renaming, and adding album art. another accomplishment for the new years was reorganizing and labeling all my emails, and also today i just integrated myself in the “cloud” by using google calendar and google docs. which are super helpful.
now i need to get some reading done and sleep so i can make it to court at 10am.
unicycle! ho!!! also, a free burrito.
today at work, ben did not think i could ride the unicycle 30ft before the end of the day. well i proved him wrong, and now he owes me a burrito! holler holler holler 
i guess im highly motivated when food is involved.
r.i.p. chris :/
so i learned last night, that a friend i knew since 3rd grade died in a motorcycle accident. we use to reak havoc in the streets of joplin and carthage…. looked at nudy magazines for the first time, smoked weed, have adventures in the wooded area behind our good friend erics house… and so much other crazy shit. idk, i think i may have said some resentful things to him the last time i saw him alive, or rather i had some resentful feelings toward him, because he some ended up with the girl i was crushing on since 6th grade. it makes me feel bad that, i live only 70miles away and i didnt even see him to say hey whats going on. 23 is just way too young for anyone die… when i think of it the people that i hung out with the most as a little kid seem to have died already like keith kurtis and his little brother kenny kurits… its just kind of gut wrenching feeling, and i feel sad that i didnt stay in touch with any of them before their deaths…
im back!
alright, so i figure i would come back to blogging, since i have been maintain the blog at work. it just seems natural i should start blogging on my personal blog
ac
so its been two months since ac and i have broken up… i was still into her. now shes dating/fucking another guy apparently, so i feel like im emotionally done with her now. i just rather would have done things in person instead of this way, but guess this worked for the best… i would have not wanted to be angry at her, but shes always pretty selfish in relationships, cause she does the emotionally easiest thing for her. its weird though how i had all these feelings for her, but they just disappeared all of a sudden (within minutes) when she told me she was already dating someone else.
it makes me pretty sad that those feelings i had disappeared so easily/quickly… and now i feel like i wasted a lot of time, energy, money, and emotions.
i still plan to study abroad in denmark, cause im not going to let this affect what schools i want to attend. i def want to study abroad at a uk , danish, and japanese uni before i graduate.
i'm burnin' i'm burnin' for you!
enough said!
blogging again
so my summer got really hectic this year, actually it was a lot of fun! i stayed in springfield, but it sums up to heavily partying, break-up, photoing, getting a job, summer fling, more partying, riding in korea, failing at summer fling, partying.
i was a little sad with the break up and then meeting brie, just to mess it up, but i am over it for the most part. something about brie that im into, but i guess there are more girls out there. just need to work on the ex-gf to not effect how i feel, cause apparently i wear my heart on my sleeve… since i got needy these last two weeks and acted a little weird, and brie is moving to scotland which doesnt help.
on the more optimistic side my job at the bicycle shop Cycles Unlimited is awesome, and i met a crap ton of cool people this summer through photoing for Make Out. prolly one of my best summers in springfield, looking forward to this fall too.
even though on monday (2009.24.08) i got hit by a car on my fixie, i am pretty much okay physically just really sore in my butt and lower back, but def know i will be taken care by the drivers insurance. if not ill be RAGING, cause it was def her fault!
but yeah that sums up everything important partying, job, girls, photoing.
bicycles with antlers?!
HOLY SHIT THIS IS AWESOME
song de la dia: CFCF – You Hear Colours
right now this is my fav song of the momment, you hear colours by cfcf. its either off an e.p. or an album called You Hear Colours. its crazi good stuff a little bit of ambient, 90’s-80’s-esque beats with a nice progression with lots of synth thrown in. pretty much screams “awesome.”
my roomies face..
yeah, yeah, i know i have been getting lazy with these posts, but ive been riding my fixie alot recently and doing sprint work outs in preparation of final friday!
anyways, back on topic apparently two friday’a ago after the after party and black box revue, my roomie decided to leave without me to go back to the apartment. apparently in transit he hit a shopping cart and broke his face. lol, sorry i think this is funny, bad luck, but still funny. shopping cart, disaster, first day riding his fixie, damn.
finally at least one politician is…
i am pretty stoked about this new york congressman, Eric Massa (D), taking a stand against broadband bandwidth capping. it excites me that someone is trying to fight this anti-productive course of action all these large ISPs are trying to do… since it is a way for them to prevent free and a-la carte services like hulu, prevent people like me who use a load of bandwidth a month from downloading the missives amount of content that i do, and small businesses that use loads of bandwidth to transfer data of projects and what not…

song de la dia: bun b & ying yang twins – GIT IT!
Download: Bun B & Ying Yang Twins – Git It!
its been a good long while since i listened to the bang gang deejays, about a good 4 months. while racing to carthage i threw it on the radio (fm tuners are the worst things ever… i have one..) it has been a while since i resupplied and got some cash from the ‘rents (having restraunteur parents makes shopping easy ), but yeah i was hungry too and my mother was making some korean bbq.
well i jammed out to this song a few times, while driving, and almost ran off the road…. that’s how good it is. xD

dissapointing day…
well today, i learned that the studio apartment i wanted to rent was already leased out…. then later i when i was going to buy that chrome bag from a few posts ago (the swedish colored one) it sold out today!
i guess thats what happens when you procrastinate too often, i was doing so good. i have been getting stuff done promptly lately… except these two things, well the apartment, the chrome messenger bag i just didnt have the money till monday.
double dissapointment monday.
