    <content type="html">1. When you're home alone, do you still close the door when you shower?&lt;br /&gt;I rarely, shower when no one is home, but of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Has a friendship ended recently that you wish hadn't?&lt;br /&gt;OMG I hope not...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. It is your friend's birthday; do you buy them a gift even though they didn't buy you one for yours?&lt;br /&gt;I'd always offer, but they would not accept it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. You win the $300 million power-ball lottery. What would you do?&lt;br /&gt;What wouldn't I do? I'd probably save up most of it as a retirement fund. Play it safe you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Do you like your music loud ?&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes, I don't want to ruin my ears you know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Are you a beach person or a snowy mountain person?&lt;br /&gt;Depends on my mood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. When do you prefer to take a shower, morning or night?&lt;br /&gt;Night. Unless it's a hot day, then maybe in the afternoon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Can you watch scary movies alone?&lt;br /&gt;I'd have to hit mute.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Soft bed or firm?&lt;br /&gt;Softer the better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Would you rather stay home all day, or be out and about?&lt;br /&gt;I have no choice, but recently I'd rather go out with someone...anyone...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11. When was the last time you've had a leg cramp?&lt;br /&gt;A while, usually when sleeping. It'd wake me up though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12. Favorite bracelet?&lt;br /&gt;I don't wear any.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13. Are you more likely to be with a large group of people or a few close friends?&lt;br /&gt;Neither, but I guess the second would be more likely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14. What are your plans for October?&lt;br /&gt;I am going to see a concert with my brother, it's my b-day present. Jason Mraz concert.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15. Where would you like to live?&lt;br /&gt;I'd like living in NY but I guess living somewhere in California would be nice too, I'd hate the earthquakes though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16. Do you have a bf/gf and name?&lt;br /&gt;Nope, never had one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17. What's on your mind right now?&lt;br /&gt;Where are you Kristin...are you mad at me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18. What is one fear that you can't seem to overcome?&lt;br /&gt;Talking to people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19. Are you good at math?&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20. What's stashed under your bed?&lt;br /&gt;Junk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21. Is there anyone you regret ever meeting?&lt;br /&gt;Nope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22. In the opposite sex, where should their piercing(s) be?&lt;br /&gt;Well wherever they want it to be. I mean as long as it's not overdone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;23. Would you rather have roommates or live alone?&lt;br /&gt;Roommates, I'd be too lonely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24. Are you a virgin?&lt;br /&gt;Yep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25. Do you like to drive?&lt;br /&gt;Yep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26. What is your favorite thing to wear?&lt;br /&gt;Orange t-shirt, blue jeans, skater sneakers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;27. If you found out that you were going to be a parent, what would you do?&lt;br /&gt;I'd be like OMG then eventually accept it and try to learn how to be a good one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;28. Do you give money to homeless people when they ask?&lt;br /&gt;No, I don't even make enough to live alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;29. A weekend in Las Vegas or Key West?&lt;br /&gt;Well Vegas would probably have more AC. I guess Las Vegas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;30. Last time you cried?&lt;br /&gt;A while ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31. Have you ever made someone so mad that they broke something?&lt;br /&gt;lol I hope not, not that I know of.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;32. You have 3 months left to live, what do you do?&lt;br /&gt;I try to ask out Kit, then if that fails, ask out Kelly. It'd probably fail too. I'll just die a virgin who has never really dated or had a serious GF. What a loser.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;33. You're having a bad day, what's one thing that can make your day better?&lt;br /&gt;Kristin...where is she? :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;34. What's worse: Tanning bed or Sun Rays?&lt;br /&gt;Tanning beds seem scary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;35. Have you ever talked on the phone for 5+ hours?&lt;br /&gt;Maybe once. I doubt it though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;36. You wake up in an unfamiliar place, what is your first reaction?&lt;br /&gt;WHERE AM I?! WHAT HAPPENED?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;37. Is there anything that you should be doing right now?&lt;br /&gt;Right now? Nope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;38. If there was a way to know when and how you're going to die, would you?&lt;br /&gt;I'd rather be surprised.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;39. What is your favorite breakfast?&lt;br /&gt;A big one. It depends on my mood though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;40. Your phone rings at 4am, who do you expect it to be?&lt;br /&gt;A wrong number. No one calls me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;41. Last thing you ate?&lt;br /&gt;Dinner, umm I ate ramen noodles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;42. One place you will NEVER eat at again?&lt;br /&gt;This crappy place that is in Flushing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;43. Do you hate anyone?&lt;br /&gt;I don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;44. Closest guy friend?&lt;br /&gt;I don't think I really have any friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;45. Do you have kids?&lt;br /&gt;Nope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;46. Would you want to date anyone on your top friends?&lt;br /&gt;Hah, don't ask.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;47. Do you go to school?&lt;br /&gt;Nope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;48. What's your relationship with the people in your top friends?&lt;br /&gt;Okay?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;49. Do you have a crush on someone?&lt;br /&gt;Yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;50. Do they know?&lt;br /&gt;Of course.</content>

    <content type="html">It's been a craptacular week, with only a few bright spots. I got a DS Lite, as I mentioned last post. Other than that it's a crappy week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have no one to talk to pretty much all week. I usually only have one person to talk to anyway. I think I kind of pissed her off. She says no, but she's much more safety valve the few times I talked to her. I am probably just over thinking it. It's hard not to over think things when you've got as much time as me sitting in front of the computer just waiting for someone to talk to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's what I'm doing now. Anyone on? Nope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always wonder if it's Livejournal bringing out the emoness in me or does it just spew out of me non-stop. Probably the second one. People have always mentioned that to me, at least online. I tend to hide that part of me elsewhere. I doubt anyone besides those online know about it. I should just stop it. No but's about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been playing Spore today. It's a lot more fun to me than people seem to say it is. I'm loving it, and no I'm not in denial. I guess it's just my kind of game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish things were back to the way they were before this week. I doubt it. Everything is changing isn't it? Isn't it?</content>

    <lj:music>My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise)</lj:music>
    <content type="html">So I haven't posted any crap here in a while. Let's see what's new...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've got a DS Lite now, it's one of those new Limited Edition black, gold, silver Pokémon ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was an asshole to my only friend a couple days ago. I have no idea how this person feels about it. I haven't had a chance to ask them (maybe this person doesn't want to talk about it).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm lonely as hell. My goal this year other than getting a job was to make more friends. Let's see how that is going...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I started the year off by going out with this girl I met from Facebook. I went out with her again like a couple weeks later. Well, I don't know if those were really dates, but if they weren't they were the most date-like things I've been on. I haven't spoken to her in a while though...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then like a couple months ago I met this girl at my part time job. She was from Hong Kong like me. She was rather cute. I even went to go see a movie with her, but the whole thing didn't seem like a date. Well, then I tried just being friends with her...well I haven't spoken to her for weeks...great job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's this guy friend I made at work, we went to see The Dark Knight. I guess, I'm still talking to him, but I don't know how to be more of a friend than a co-worker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, yeah that's it. 9 months or so summarized in a few paragraphs. My life is sure exciting. Maybe it's just my story telling abilities. Anyway, I hope that I can achieve my goal during these last few months of the year.</content>

    <title>Help from a million miles away...</title>

    <content type="html">I have a friend who just got dumped. Really dumped not broke up, because it was not a mutual agreement. She is sad because she still loves him. He doesn't seem to care too much because he is apparently playing Halo with his friends. He means so much to her, yet it doesn't seem like she means much to him. I'm sure he cares, but how much?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh how I wish I could comfort her. She is my best friend, and possibly my only friend. And she lives a million miles away. I hate it when my friends are sad, because it makes me sad. I really care too much. She'll be on my mind all day every day. I'll be wondering if she is doing better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I was nearer, but alas I fear I'd be no help. I never know what to say to comfort people. I always end up saying nothing. I'm sure it comes off as not caring, but oh I care so much. If only I knew what to say; if only I was able to make everything better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish that she'll feel better. I wish I was nearer. I wish I could help. Please, just grant me a wish.</content>

    <title>reCAPTCHA: Stop Spam, Read Books</title>
    <published>2007-07-23T15:38:13Z</published>
    <updated>2007-07-23T15:38:13Z</updated>
    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://recaptcha.net/"&gt;Link: reCAPTCHA&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1153/876896612_a6b5d87713_o.png" width="195" height="125" alt="reCAPTCHA" style="float:left;padding-right:0.5em" /&gt; We&amp;#8217;ve all seen CAPTCHA before on the net, those little distorted words used to confirm that we&amp;#8217;re in fact human. reCAPTCHA takes this idea and adds the usefulness by making everyone read old books one word at a time. Intrigued? Here&amp;#8217;s why it&amp;#8217s being done and how it works:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In order for the internet to truly be the &amp;#8220;information superhighway&amp;#8221; several projects are currently actively digitizing text written before the digital age. Pages of text are scanned into the computer and a computer program using &amp;#8220;Optical Character Recognition&amp;#8221; (&lt;abbr title="Optical Character Recognition"&gt;OCR&lt;/abbr&gt;) figures out what the letters are. The problem with &lt;abbr title="Optical Character Recognition"&gt;OCR&lt;/abbr&gt; is that computers can&amp;#8217;t read text as well as humans can, so the resulting words are typo-prone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;reCAPTCHA makes humans do the work that only humans can do, read distorted but readable text. Instead of just a random arbitrary distorted word to confirm we&amp;#8217;re human, we are given a word that computers can&amp;#8217;t read and one word that some other human have already read. Each reCAPTCHA we do helps take another step to fully digitizing these books. You can find more information on the &lt;a href="http://recaptcha.net/"&gt;reCAPTCHA home page&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <title>Corn Farmers affected by P2P?</title>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because of our nation’s interlocking economy, two-thirds of the lost earnings and lost jobs are in industries other than motion picture production. For example, in the absence of movie piracy, video retailers would sell and rent more titles. &lt;strong&gt;Movie theatres would sell more&lt;/strong&gt; tickets and &lt;strong&gt;popcorn&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Corn growers would earn greater profits and buy more farm equipment&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yeah I'm sure the outrageous pricing on popcorns and all other concessions sold at movie theaters don't hinder the sale of popcorn at all.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Mandy Moore&amp;#8217;s new album &amp;#8220;Wild Hope&amp;#8221; supposedly has a song co-wrote by Michelle Branch. A look at the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Hope"&gt;Wikipedia entry&lt;/a&gt; reveals that none of the songs on the new album is written by Branch. However, in the B-sides section, the very last song, called &amp;#8220;Terminal&amp;#8221;, is co-written by both Branch and Jessica Harp. Interesting, although a search for imports of the album in Google has so far turned up empty.&lt;/p&gt;</content>

I still have 4.5 credit I need, so I am taking 5 credits in the Summer. Man I need a job soon. I hope my resume is good enough. I'm so lost. Maybe I should go to business school.

    <content type="html">Anyone heard of this animated film before? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It predates Disney&amp;#8217;s Snow White &amp;amp; the Seven Dwarfs and is in a style unlike any other films. It features &amp;#8220;a silhouette technique&amp;#8230;which involved manipulated cutouts made from cardboard and thin sheets of lead under a camera.&amp;#8221; &lt;a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=Q7FVvqC__Oc" title="The Adventures of Prince Achmed trailer (jp.ver)"&gt;YouTube has the trailer of the film in Japanese&lt;/a&gt; (it only has subtitles in the style of silent films).</content>
