I've got game?

Disclaimer of sorts: I am not trying to brag in any way, shape, or form with the latest update of my blog. I like to think of myself as a very modest person but I felt like posting this because it has struck me in awe.

About 3 weeks ago, it was brought to my attention that a lot of the women and girls around my age have been flirting with me at work. I told the person that pointed this out to me that they did not know what they were talking about and that they were just imagining things. I thought to myself, "There's no f-ing way most of these people are flirting with me seeing as how I am not broadcasting that I want a girlfriend at the moment" but boy was I wrong.

Not even a day passed when I actually started noticing people flirting with me and going a little out of their way to talk to me. I didn't think anything of it until the women actually started telling me that if they were younger, they would be all over me faster than...something that is really fast. I had heard these comments before but I always felt it was for laughs but I could tell there was truth in their eyes. Some of them even made me blush to the point where I couldn't really respond.

The girls my age are a little sneakier about it and decide to tell my best bud at work (who is female and we pretty much tell each other everything) about how some put claims on liking me and that other girls weren't allowed to flirt with me. I felt flattered to an extent when I heard that and creeped out at the same time.

After I noticed all these people actively flirting with me, i was told that it was my own fault for flirting with them. I had no idea what she was talking about and then she told me that since i am nice all the time, and treat people like i want to be treated, that it comes of as flirtatious/nice hence people flirting with me.

Ever since this was pointed out to me, I have stopped being as friendly. Not because they are fuggos/old/whatever but because I don't want that much attention from that many of the opposite sex without me feeling like I want to "hit that". Some of you might be thinking "bullshit" but I am totally serious. The only attention I would like to be grabbing is of future prospects and my place of work doesn't really have many to choose from. Not ones without herpes anyways ^_^*....gross.

I was told that what I do is called social flirting which makes a lot of sense. When I talk to people, I try to put a smile on their face to brighten up their day just a little so I can see how that can be misconstrued as flirting.

Now if only I could be this effective with girls I want to ask out and possibly date...

c'est la vie

I've come to the realization that I'm losing touch with most of my good friends and it makes me a little sad. Some I am losing touch with because we don't work together anymore, while others, I am losing to this inevitable thing called responsibility and the next step in the grand scheme of life.

I don't know why, but I feel as though most of the good times I have had with all my current friends are coming to a close. I try to keep in touch and not push anything on anyone since I don't know what most of their schedules are like anymore but its not really working as well as I had planned. Calls go unanswered, text messages are not replied to, and so on and so forth.

This made me stop wasting my time and wait until something was mentioned by someone other than me which seems to be working but not at the pace it used to just a few months ago.

I guess that time inevitably gets the best of friendships which is what happened when I was younger and was used to moving every year, but I was hoping things would be different with this group of friends.

Hopefully, I will continue having fun with most of my friends but I'm sure those fun times won't be like they used to be thanks to everyone drifting apart.

Such is life I guess so I will make sure to make lemonade when the bitch throws lemons my way.

I have a confession to make.

I have betrayed you, sweet blog of mine. She is a sweet mistress and her name is Twitter. Don't get me wrong, I still care for you and will post on you, but Twitter is able to offer me so much more with less. Not only do I have a 160 character limit per post (which means less time in front of my computer) but I also don't have to worry about trying to make sense of all the thoughts in my head and trying to neatly arrange them all in a post. All I have to do is pull out my fancy phone and post about what I am thinking about at that moment. If I want to ask my group of friends who are also on twitter whether they would like to go out to eat/movie/whatever, all I have to do is post my thought and wait for replies from those that do and those that don't. It's almost like texting 2.0.

Don't get me wrong, you have most of the same great qualities but you require a lot of up keep. Mind you, there is nothing wrong with being high maintenance for when I have something on my head and I don't want to be limited, I will always turn to you for you were my first.

I guess what I am trying to say is that eventhough I will not be writing the less important stuff on you anymore, that you are still going to be a huge part when it comes to the important and rather funny moments. Twitter will just be there for my random thoughts and for when I want to arrange a get-together with the people that also use twitter.

I know that I can't contain this Latin heat of mine but would you be okay with this threesome? Blog - "As much as this hurts me, I understand your weak attempt of an excuse for posting on twitter. Hell, I did some experimenting in college and wouldn't mind experimenting some more now *looking in Twitters direction*". Twitter - "I was raised on the dairy, bitch! *breaks beer bottle over her head and starts making out with Blog*". Me - "Ah! And boom goes the dynamite".

Ten things I hate about you.

I've become more irritable as of late and I don't like it at all. I am a pretty easy going guy and I was able to just disregard most things that annoyed me but now they make me a little upset. Not to the point where I get worked up about them, but to the point where I've realized that I have lost almost all hope in humanity.

Minor things like people wearing Bluetooth headsets, F-ers using their phones in movie theaters whether it is to text someone or to check the time while the movie is playing(its not like you are going to die if you stop texting for an hour and a half and time is not going to go any faster everytime you pull out your bright phone in a dark room), people cutting through parking lots and putting people that follow the lines in danger, know-it-alls, or people that get extremely close to you when you are in line somewhere and all you are wanting is a little personal space really grind my gears something fierce.

To a couple of major ones that bother me like taking advantage of misfortune/kindness/generosity, and hypocrisy (I know there's varied levels of hypocrisy and that we have all been hypocrites at one point or another, but i still find hypocrisy detestable). These I look down on with extreme disdain.

I don't know if its because of the way I was raised, but most of the things that annoy me are things that I thought would be common courtesy/respect to everyone and that everyone would have the decency follow to a certain degree but boy am I wrong. Such is life I guess.

On a brighter note, time for me to go play some Rock Band 2!

This week has gotten a lot better for me.

On Tuesday, I had to take my first quiz of the semester for my programming class and I got me an A. This A was unsexpected due to the fact that when I thought "quiz", I figured it would be 10 questions long. Wrong! This quiz might as well have been called a test for there was 40 questions and a flowchart problem. I was barely able to get an A on it which makes me glad I studied more than I should have.

Also on Tuesday, I found out that AT&T finally brought 3G here. Now I can surf the internet twice as fast on my phone while slacking off at work. Thanks AT&T.

The icing on the cake came on Wednesday when I finally got a copy of Rock Band 2. I played the shnarf out of it last night and will continue to do so today and tomorrow. I'll have to put it aside this weekend though so I can study for a test in my networking class.

Off to actually work now.

Somebody's got a case of the mondays...

...and that someone just happens to be me.

Today was the first Monday I have had to work in 4 weeks and don't know if I will be able to handle a full work week. Mind you, my day went by rather quickly since there has been a lot for me to do lately and I like that since staying busy makes my day go by faster but it just didn't feel right being there on a Monday.

Not only that, but I forgot that Rock Band 2 was released today and I didn't buy it after work for this reason. I could have played it for a good 3 hours before I had to read a couple of chapters for a quiz i have tomorrow but now i will have to settle on watching some anime. I should just put my shoes on and go buy it but I don't feel like leaving my place.

Now I'll just go watch me some anime and relax for a bit before i have to study.

How time flies

It has been about a month a half since I've posted anything on my blog and it wasn't by choice. My computer crapped out on me 2 days after my last blog which was rather annoying. I had to move out of my old place in that same week so i decided to just wait until i was settled at the new place before i started isolating the problem with the computer and fixing it. I finally get to having time to fix my computer and to make a long story short, I had it fixed bit I erase the software for the motherboard and didn't realize it so I just said f-it.

I had to go for about a month without a computer with nothing but my PS3 and phone to access the internet. I never thought I would miss something as much as i missed internet access during that ridiculously long month. Let me tell you, it blows monkey chunks trying to change your address to most places you have online accounts with when all you have is a PS3 remote to do it with.

I had interesting stories to share but I have forgotten all of them and i will post them as i remember them.

One cool thing that happened was that my brother and mom came and stayed at my one bedroom apartment for a few day at around my birthday and it was a blast. It had been long since I had spent that much time the most important members of my family and it sucked to see them go. They made my birthday and I hope we all get together again soon.

Another thing that happened, which freaked me out, was Sophie escaping from the apartment.

Two weekends ago, I decided to open up all the windows since it was cool that morning. I figured Sophie would love it since she would get to smell the outside instead of just gazing at it. I went about my business for about an hour and I don't know what made me wonder where she was but I started looking for her and it was weird because I couldnt find her anywhere. I go to check the window perch in my room and I noticed the screen had been pushed open and Sophie had escaped. I put on some shoes and started looking for her and thankully she was nearby but when I called her name, all she did was look at me. When i came close, she started running away for i am sure she knew fully well that what she had done was a huge no-no. I finally caught her and i don't think I will be opening my bedroom window from now on.
