“Either that we’ve got the most brilliant record ever, or that we’re...”
– Brad Delson, Linkin Park guitarist, about the reviews of their debut album, Hybrid Theory. (2000) What a great decade LP. I may be a little late, but, here’s to the next 10 years!

...Become a Potato (Day 21)
Day 21 – Your favorite television program
This is a tough one, I watch a lot of TV and I’m interested by a lot of TV. I love everything from anime to house hunting shows.
If I had to choose just one program to be my favorite, it would have to be Cowboy Bebop.
The music, the colors, the story, the characters. Everything is fantastic in this anime.
I have absolutely no problems...
...Am Talented (Day 20)
Day 20 – A talent of yours
If I have to choose one to share, I’ll go with my uncanny ability to research electronics.
When I am ready for a new electronic, I want to know if it’s really what I want. I need to know how it will break, how I can fix it, and if it’s worth it or not for me to have.
Typically, I’ll spend HOURS in front of a computer screen looking up...
...Mourn
So yesterday, I could have written more. I could have even said why I wasn’t feeling well enough to do it. I didn’t feel like it. I needed to get away from home.
We have had Moe for about 8 or 9 years now, he’s closing in on his 16th or 17th birthday.
We got him when I was in around 8th grade from a family that couldn’t take care of him. He was always a happy...
...Peruse the Internet (Day 19)
Day 19 – Blogs you’ve been following
Word Boner - I love looking at the Typography
Bookshelf Porn - Books are awesome. Seeing cool carriers for books, even more awesome.
Notch - Minecraft is a great game, it’s good to hear about the updates
Fake Science - I love “Bro Science” this is the closest thing to it.

...Show Off Some Art (Day 18)
Day 18 – An art piece (drawing, sculpture, painting, etc)
Today, I’m just going to post what is needed for the 30 Day Challenge. Extra text may be available tomorrow as to why I’m not adding more today.
I’ve Forgotten - By Jared (This was a piece I did for my senior year in HighSchool, it got me best art piece of my grade in Computer Graphics in a little show we did. Not...
...Weep Softly (Day 17)
Day 17 – A song that makes you cry (or nearly)
I have spoken about two songs already that can bring me to tears. I shall repost them from Day 2 :
6. Pearl Jam “Just Breathe” This song always chokes me up. It’s a very meaningful song for me because of the lyrics. I feel that it’s a great song that says everything about me, and everything I have done. I plan on trying to make it Margaret...
...Dream of a House (Day 16)
Day 16 – Your dream house
When I think of my dream house, I get many, many images.
To put it simply, my dream is to live in a large log cabin (mansion) in a deeply wooded area, next to or in view of a lake.
For a little more insight, I would love to have my house stocked with electronics. Sound systems here, game stations there, a computer in the corner, a fully up-to-date kitchen. I...
...Share a Snapshot (Day 15)
Day 15 – Share a picture from your day
The fiance took the shot as I was driving us home for Thanksgiving Break today. I figure I should share it because I look silly.
Look at how silly I am.
Look at it.
LOOK AT IT.

...Read a Book (Day 14)
Day 14 – Your favorite book
This is a tough one for me.
I love many different books, some of my top choices are:
The Lost Years of Merlin
Fight Club
Watchmen
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Things I’ve Learned From Women Who’ve Dumped Me
Even with those on my list, I have to give my top book to House of Leaves. I have spoken about this before, back on Day 7
~Jared~
...Go Surfin' (Day 13)
Day 13 – A website
This one is fairly ambiguous. Does it want a website I frequent? Maybe a website I think is utter trash?
That’s it, I’m making a list of websites with different quantifiers (No explanations though):
A website that makes me laugh
MS Paint Adventures
A website that I frequent
YouTube
A website that I hate
Uhm…… Anything to do with rap music?...
...Turn Shuffle On (Day 12)
Day 12 – Put your iPod on shuffle & share the first 10 songs that play
Well, even though I have a Mac, I opted for a Zune HD instead (That damn thing is beautiful). So I shall be putting my Zune on shuffle.
“See You Space Cowboy…” from Cowboy Bebop
“Only Wanna Be With You” by Hootie and the Blowfish
“Defiers of Fate” from Final Fantasy 13...
...Set Goals for Myself (Day 11)
Day 11 – Short Term Goals for this Month and Why
I really don’t like making short-term goals. When I say that, I guess I mean I don’t think of the goals I plan out as being “short-term.” Anything that deserves the term “goal” for me, I feel is something that will benefit me in the long-term.
Long-Term Goals I have are:
Read more
Write more
Graduate

Day 10 – A photo you took
This is a photo I took in Madera Canyon during the depression *cough* Spring of ‘09. I was in Arizona for some reason, and I had my camera out for the few days I went hiking. this was, by far, my favorite photograph from the trip. The colors are so vivid and it just makes me feel good about everything.

So, It’s 2:37 AM and I’ve...

...Collect Things (Day 8)
Day 8 – Something You Collect
Cool things.
That’s about the only way I can describe it, I collect cool things. I was once in the mall and I was at an “around the world” store where I saw this little stone apple. It was cool, I bought it. I was once in my basement and I found this old lens from something. I took it and took photos with it, it was cool. I found a...

...Share Some Books (Day 7)
Day 7 – A book that made you cry
Here’s a tough one for me. I don’t remember any book that has moved me to tears. In lieu of that, I’m going to make this about a book that drained me/scared me.
In this category there is one book : “House of Leaves” by Danielewski.
The book is about a piece written by a blind man about a movie that doesn’t exist,...

...Talk to my Sister
Me: Lolerskates
Sister: what?
Me: *facepalm* nevermind it's an internet thing
Sister: so you're calling me old now? I CAN STILL GOOGLE!
Sister: An extended version of the acronym L.O.L. which expresses extreme laughter and appreciation of humor. This expression is usually only used on the internet, and is not intended for normal real conversation. Any person that uses such term in real conversation may subsequently be labeled as an asshole.
HAHAHAHA
Me: Damn you google!!!!! *shakes fist*
Sister: google is my bestest friend!
Me: Google is also going to rule everything.
They have control of Youtube AND Andriod!
Sister: as they should
did you know they provide their employees with FREE meals everyday
and not crap either

...Share a Quote (Day 6)
Day 6 – Your favorite quote
This is a really easy one. I used this quote back in high school for the yearbook. It was - and is - my mantra.
I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
-Bill Cosby
When I was searching for the perfect quote for the yearbook, I wanted something that struck me as something that I have come to believe. When...
