a new semester, new resolutions
January 13, 2003 by Eric Richardson
One of the things I disliked most about last semester was the feeling that I never ran into anyone on campus. I felt like I would come to class and then go straight back to my apartment. This semester I'm going to try and do whatever I need to do to stay on campus in the breaks between classes, even if that means just sitting somewhere enjoying the sun. Now if only I had a laptop, I could use the wireless network and actually be productive. Oh well...
classes are starting

So today I went to my first class of the new semester, COMM 204 (basically a public speaking class). The instructor, Jeannie Novak, is actually the founder of Indiespace, a company that helps indie musicians market their work. She's at USC getting her Masters, and that has teaching requirements, so here she is doing 204.
mmmm... vibrance...

I just turned on digital vibrance on my new video card, and I have to say that it's very cool. I like bright colors. It makes very nice bright colors. I also think the cursor shadow is far cooler than it seems like it should be. It's just a drop-shadow, but I think it really looks good.
new music! woo!

Today #{node "6"}Magilla#{/node} and I cruised up to Sunset for a visit to Amoeba Music. I had a couple things I wanted, and Magilla's always up for a trip there. Once again, Amoeba came through in the clutch, and I found two great cds used ($4.95 each). I bought the George Clinton cd I wanted and also Halou's cd, Wiser. The Halou cd is absolutely amazing. I love the richness of their sound. Check it out.
George Clinton - If Anybody Gets Funked Up

Just a little change of pace... I heard this song on KCRW's Blueprint last night, and loved it. I need more music like this. I will buy this cd very soon.
