Their hand job lies were just too cruel.

Things are going well. Finals are almost here and this semester is almost over. I can't believe it! I am registered for both winter and spring semesters (my school is weird) now. Winter semester will suck and be long, but spring will be much, much better.

Anyway, I went to Las Vegas to visit my Grandma for Thanksgiving. I had a good time with her for the most part. We had a few disagreements and she tried some of her guilt tripping bullshit on me, but it didn't work out. (In fact, it just pissed me off more.)

Just studying and living.

I'm doing all right in school. Getting good grades and all that jazz. Well, in most of my classes, anyway. Whatever. I am getting through midterms, though, and that's what counts.

Now would be a good time to mention that I got a new computer. This time I went with Mac. I got a 13 inch MacBook and it suits me just fine. I am making my way around it and adjusting to it just dandy. I like it much better than my old PC.

Long story short, the dudes at Best Buy were being jerkwads about the whole deal so I bought a new computer and told them not to fix the one I sent in. I would never have been able to get my school work done if I had sat around waiting for them to get their shit together long enough to actually fix my computer. It took them a week to do the data back-up and then two weeks to just send back to me after I decided to not get it fixed. Such bullshit.

Anyhow.

In other good news, I will be going to Guatemala with my dad for Christmas. They'll be flying out of Chicago and I'll be flying out of LAX on Christmas Eve. I have two brothers living in Guatemala City at the moment, so it will be good to see them again. One I haven't seen in close to five years now. It's crazy.

Damn, it's been a while since I last updated this thing. I have been pretty busy enjoying LA and getting things straight for school. Family has come and visited me, I have a friend coming to visit me soon, I went to Vegas to visit my Grandma, etc. Just enjoying life.

Went to Venice Beach with my brother today. We had a good time. Ate some good food, saw some crazy people, I got sunburned. My brother is up in Ventura playing one of his shows right now. I went and saw him in LA last night and will be going to San Diego to see him tomorrow night.
