This is a test.

So I have seen a few films lately notably ‘Iron Man‘, ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian‘, and as of this moment I am watching ‘In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale‘.  It seems like all of these movies should have been good. Two of them were one of them not so much.

DARPA does awesome awesome stuff. Now they are funding the devlopment of a computer that will manage the battlefields of the future. This combined with advances in the area of what can only be called cybernetics not to mention laser weapons is an amazing portrait of the future. There are two problems I see arising from this: 1.) There aren’t that many people left on the planet dumb enough to engage in global war. 2.) What the hell are sci-fi authors going to write about?

while(j < i):
	j = j + 1
	if(love == 1):

Okay I am REALLY tired. We didn’t get back from Disneyland until 1am or so then I had to take a shower to warm up (why you ask? patience say I). Today was the second to last day of PeopleSoft training and I am very relieved I am somewhat home sick and, as much as I like it here I want to go home.

I am writing this yesterday,, spooky. I am preparing this in advance as I hope to be in Disneyland when I would ordinarily be posting this. I hope to keep writing here after this trip. It is amazing the things I can get up to when don’t have video games to distract me. I do have a pretty damn good book with me. I got it for my birthday and it is really good so far and so far is page 180 of 312.

Okay well the food at the market today was not all I had hoped, probably because I went back on my word and didn’t get an omelet covered in tomato sauce. Instead I got some rammen something or other which was tasty. The problem arrived with the rice covered in mucusy goo soaked beans. I took a picture but I am too lazy right now to pull it off of my phone, crop it, and post it. I tried to eat it but it just tasted too nasty. Sort of like baked beans with out the sweetness.

Okay so since the traveling is done,,, does this even count as a ‘travel’ log? Whatever.

okay so Assassins Creed was a lot of fun. I am happy I finished it before I left for Costa Mesa. Though playing it for three hours Sunday before I left may not have been the greatest idea ever. I arrived here around 4pm on Sunday and I wanted to walk around to scout out places to eat and see what the place looked like. It was kind of cool and over cast, I only brought one warm layer, a hoodie, medium gray. I also brought a knife,, why? Because I always have a knife,, or almost always.

Ah Costa Mesa, the city of lights mixed income levels. So I am in Costa Mesa, CA. for the next few days for PeopleSoft training. The actual training starts tomorrow (on St. Patric’s day! woo). So far the experience is agreeable. I found the hotel with out any difficulty, thanks to Google and the slightly creepy street view feature of Google maps.

I’m making a note here: Huge Success!
