Good (but Cold) Night!
Saturday, November 27, 2004--Lunch at Ariake Sushi with Justin, Alan, Mark, and Ryan. The tab was fifty seven dollars and
one cent! Justin had the one penny.
Then, we went to Alan's house to watch NCAA football and play MTG. Highlights include:
- USC beating Notre Dame... no wait, that's not a highlight.
- Me using Marrow-Gnawer to kill Justin (using my Slivers) with Rat tokage. Of course, it was because Justin didn't know the subtleties of provoking a creature with a tap ability, so I got one free untap, but eh. Slivers are still better than Rats.
- In a 2v2 game with Alan using Justin's Zombies, Justin using Gob Bidding, me using Rats, and Mark using my Slivers, I play a Ravenous Rats and make Justin discard a Patriarch's Bidding. Then, I use Nezumi Shortfang to make him discard his other Bidding (and last card in hand), which flips my Shortfang into Stabwhisker the Odious. Mark attacks with his army of Slivers, bringing Alan and Justin down to 4 life, then Lit Bolts them, bringing them down to 1. On Justin's turn, he takes 3 from Stabwhisker's The Rack ability and dies.
- In a rematch, Justin uses a Goblin Sharpshooter to kill Alan's Festering Goblin, who uses his ability to give -1/-1 to Mark's Muscle Sliver. Justin's Shooter, who untapped from the Festering Gob's death, shoots the Muscle Sliver, then shoots the rest of Mark's 1/1 team. Later, a second Gob Shooter clears the board and paves the way for Alan's hard-casted (is there any other way) Phage. (Mark still had a Magma Sliver in play, but when I tried to Terror Justin's Shooter, he used its death to trigger an extra Shooter untap to get 3 damage to kill the Magma Sliver... not like it mattered anyway, since Alan had a Tsabo's Decree in his hand that he ended up not having to use.)
After eating Domino's Pizza for dinner, I went back home.

In 2003: Tracy gives me her SN on one of my CS61a notes.
In 2002: "If you had to be assassinated, who would you want to be assassinated by and why?"
*8*
Anyways, FF8 is turning out to be a lot harder than I originally anticipated. Maybe it's because I didn't get the Ultimate Weapons. Maybe it's because I didn't Draw all those Auras from Seifer. Maybe it's because I levelled up so I'm at a level where junctioning 100 Curagas is normal, as opposed to earlier in the game, when junctioning 100 Curagas is simple abuse of the system. Or maybe I just underestimated FF8.
Anyways, I made it to the final boss (Ultimecia, Greiver, and Ultimeica-Griever), and I'm getting my ass kicked. I only have 2 real sources of damage--Eden (which I renamed Sarah) and Zell. Unfortunately, Ultimecia has a nasty habit of blowing up any and all GFs, so I can't rely on Eden (at least not against the 3rd form, Ultimecia Griever), and I have only, like, 5 Auras, so I can't rely on Zell.
Fortunately, I have a few more strategies to try, but I think I'm a hold them off until Winter Break, because I've played enough this Thanksgiving.*8*
Also, I played
GunBound with Carise. It was fun. My eMachines computer lags like fuck, but apparently, I still had pretty decent accuracy. (Note to self, angle is easier to control than power, especially if you're firing long distance, high angle.)

On this day:
In 2003: "You should go home tomorrow so I can see you today."
In 2002:
- "You suck hot dogs!" "I don't suck hot dogs. I bite them.
- "Oh, I really enjoyed it. I had the time of my life! It re-affirms my sight-reading skill." Ihui is sarcastic.
Thanksgiving party at Kellie's. Present were me, Frank, Kellie, Bernard, Jeffrey, Connie, Vivian, and Robin.
I loaned Kellie FF7, but since it has issues with WinXP, I had to search the 'Net for some patches and fix FF7.
We (me, Kellie, Connie, Vivian, and Bernard) also played some Bomberman. Highlights include:
- Me and Kellie shoot each other at the same time and kill each other.
- Me, Bernard, and Kellie are each one win away from the series, and suddenly, bombs explode, and we die and Connie and Vivian--who are not going for the championships--are in play.
- I get killed repeatedly by Vivian from the Bomb cart (whom, as we all know, didn't really try to win).
- Vivian: "I win by luck!" Me: "Yeah, and we all know how you used to win.
Back at home, more FF8... *8*
There are 8 bosses in the final dungeons who have sealed 8 of my battle commands. So I track down and kill these 8 bosses. The last one, Tiamat, was pretty hard, but I managed to pull off a really lucky win after Phoenix kicked in. Thank goodness for Phoenix.*8*

Wednesday, November 24, 2004--I got my EE120 test back in EE120 Discussion, and w00t! I did fantastically good! I beat Tanya this time. (Of course, Tanya didn't need to try this time, since she did so well the first time around, and the system is designed to bias in favor of your better test scores.)
CS61c Discussion... was very empty, so we talked about Virtual Memory.
CS61c Lecture... also very nearly empty.
EE120 Lecture... extremely totally uberly empty...
On this day:
In 2002: "Bart has his 'El Barto', why can't I be 'El Homo'?"
Then, I went home, at which I finished my CS61c project, then played FF8.
*8*
So I finally got around to beating Adel. I used a suicide blitz strategy, which basically involved me starting off with about 1/3 of my HP on all characters, then doing my Limit Breaks until she died. It was a very ugly win. Phoenix had to kick in once in order for me to survive. Nevertheless, it was still a win.
Then, a few more bosses, and now I'm at the final dungeon.*8*

Cal vs Stanford Big Game!
So waking up at 9ish, I get ready and then I go to the Big Game with Sarah and Aneesh and Eunice and... and... and I can't remember any more. In any case, we kicked ass 41-6. I thought the game was over when we got our 2nd touch down in the 3rd quarter and brought the score to 20-3. Stanford did not score a single touchdown.
One highlight: In the fourth quarter, we had one of the weirdest drives in the history of football. We somehow made a first down like an inch in front of the endzone. Then, there was a penalty and we lost 5 yards. Then, there was another penalty, and we lost 5 yards, and in the same play, one of Stanford's dudes did a personal foul against us or something, and we gained half the distance, which brought us back to the 5 yards. Then, we made a touchdown.
One lowlight: Stanford #29 kept fouling our dudes. "Hey, number 29! You're mom called. She said
you suck!"
Melody was two rows in front of me, watching the game, and at one point, she decided she wanted to be carried up the stands, so then when a touch down was made, they carried her up and carried her up the stands. I almost dropped her because, since she was right in front of me, I didn't see her coming up until she was about to fall on me.
Also, apparently, the graduating cheerleaders were getting carried up the stands, too. They were wearing jackets and sweatpants over their outfits, though, because apparently, the administration was afraid they'd get harassed.
After winning, we rushed the field, where I saw Jackie, who apparently had been sitting in the Cal Student section, disguised as a SJSU student. "That's quite a downgrade there, but whatever works for you."
Took a nap in my dorm at 5:30 and woke up to monster windstorm at 7. The wind was so strong that the trees were bent over sideways. Then, the wind died and I went to get something to eat.

Friday, November 19, 2004--The most inefficient CS61c Lab
ever... I arrived at 9:30, finished the lab by 10:15, and waited until 11 before getting checked off. I think it was because the TAs were spending 5-10 minutes
per person explaining the concepts behind the lab, while the people who just needed a 1 minute check-off had to wait excessively. Whoops.
CS61c Guest Lecture by a TA since Prof Garcia was apparently unavailable.
EE122 Discussion...
On this day:
In 2002: The name "RustWyrm" is born.
Sometime in the afternoon, I went to the card shops. Originally, I had only gone to buy cards and get Unhinged boosters, but I ended up drafting at Games of Berkeley instead.
We were doing an Unhinged draft, and I drafted red-black, of course. I got passed 3 (that's right,
three Sautes, and 3
Punctuates (but I only drafted 2), 2
Duh, 1
Deal Damage, and 1
Wet Willie of the Damned. Come on, what's wrong with you people?
Nine removal. I would have had
ten if I had drafted the 4th Punctuate.
Other notable cards I got drafted were a foil
Bad Ass,
Mother of Goons (makes a good combo with Saute, "Hey, sucka, you just got
cooked!"),
Rocket-Powered Turbo Slug. Not in my deck were
Orchish Paratroopers ("IOU one Parashoot --Urk,
mogg fanatic"),
Mons's Goblin Waiters,
Little Girl (half a white mana for a half/half),
Magical Hacker ("1|= y()u (4|\| r3@d 7#][5, y0|_| /\r3 @ IVI0/\/$t3|2 &33|<"), and the
Infernal Spawn of Infernal Spawn of Evil.
My decklist:
12 Mountains
6 Swamps
2x
Frazzled Editor
3x
Goblin Mime
3x
Saute
2x
Goblin SWAT Team
Six-y Beast
Rocket-Powered Turbo Slug
Punctuate
2x
Red-Hot Hottie
Deal Damage
2x
Duh
Mother of Goons
The Fallen Apart
Bad Ass
Wet Willie of the Damned
First round, I played against this kid named Alex. I don't remember what deck he was playing, but he was mana screwed the first round, so I beat him (by Sauteing him to death), and the second round, I owned him.
Record: 1-0
The second dude I played was this guy named Ken, who had apparently came to play Kamigawa, but decided to play Unhinged since no one wanted to play Kamigawa. In any case, he used the the
Longest Name Elemental-
Wordmail combo. Funny thing was, he had 4 of both cards in his deck without realizing it was a killer combo, and he found out later. (For the record, the Longest Name Elemental has 25 words in its name.) In anycase, he killed me with one. Rather, I had to continually regenerate a Bad Ass to survive, and eventually, the pressure from his other creatures (with Wordmails) killed me. (Why does Wordmail have a pic of the Infernal Spawn's kid?) In the second game, I had a bad opening hand, so I mulliganed down to 6. That hand was all land, so I mulliganed down to 5. That hand was all non-land, so I mulliganed down to 4. Needless to say, I lost.
Record: 1-1
My third bout was against this kid named Jasper, who was such a jackass about my Goblin Mimes. Seriously, it's one thing to try to trick a dude, but when it's obvious that it won't work, just give it up. It's called Sportsmanship, you know. In any case, I managed to beat him by Sauteing him, and our second game, we ran out of time, so it was a draw.
Circle of Protection: Art can be annoying sometimes.
Record: 2-1
Anyways, I got 3rd place and won 2 boosters and a foil
Ass Whuppin', which apparently Ralph decided to give out, but of course, he's not officially on the list of MTG Unhinged release people, so *shrug*. At least I got my Ass Whuppin'.
Another interesting strategy I witnessed was the double
Farewell to Arms, in which your opponent would have no arms to play with (unless they wanted to discard their hand... of cards). Hazzy, a little kid in the draft, forfeited after losing both arms. Dave, in the sealed event, on the other hand, actually turned around and fumbled with stuff with both arms behind his back and actually kept playing despite the Farewell to Arms, which was simply amazing. He unanimously got the Sportsmanship award (even though one wasn't awarded that day).
I also bought 3 Unhinged Boosters on my own. Memorable cards include: a 2nd Wet Willie of the Damned, a 3rd Duh, a 3rd Punctuate, a 3rd Little Girl, a foil
Mana Flair,
Rod of Spanking ("Thank you, sir. May I have another?"), the
No name creature,
Question Elemental,
Stone Cold Basilisk,
Form of the Squirrel, and
Gleemax.
Anyways, that's all I have for today. Hope you enjoyed reading about Unhinged as much as I enjoyed playing it. Oh, and the Unhinged set has nothing to do with the card
Unhinge.

EE120 Mudterm #2! Thankfully, it was easier than Mudterm #1, but it was still too long. If only I had 30 minutes more, I could have finished it!
Later, when the solutions went up, I calculated that my score could be anywhere in the range of 54 to 80, depending on how hard the TAs grade. I'll be happy if I break 75.

Sunday, November 14, 2004--Today, I went to the CYS concert for my Music 26ac Performance Report. Ashley Lau played a solo. I hadn't seen her in such a long time. Seeing the way she moves when she plays... it's simply hypnotic.
So during intermission, I sneak backstage (and so did a bunch of other people) and I ran into Katty, who--with a bunch of other people--were stationed outside of Ashley's dressing room, waiting for her to emerge so they could chill. I didn't get a chance to say hi to Ashley, though. It's probably better that way, since she certainly doesn't remember anymore.
Katty (later over AIM): Hey, you should be more aggressive. Push your way into the dressing room!
Me: I dunno... I think pushing my way into a dressing room to meet a girl who barely remembers me is a little
too aggressive.
Katty: Haha, it's not like she was dressing or anything.

And even though it's technically a holiday, I was interviewing at Microsoft.

It goes to show that I'm good at making things work (which is good), but bad at making things efficient (which is bad).

Tuesday, November 9, 2004--As I was waking up in the morning, I couldn't decide whether or not I wanted to go to EE105 Lecture or not... but I ended up going anyway. Good thing, too, since there was new material to learn.
EE122 Lecture... I remember how at home, if I use the uber-long Ethernet cable, I have to send at 10 Mbps, but if I use the short one, I can afford to send at 100 Mbps. At first, it confused the hell out of me, but I learned today that Ethernet requires that whenever a host sends, it has to send enough information to fill the entire network. Now, if you're sending at 100 Mbps and you have a super long wire, it takes a
tremendous amount of information to fill the network, and thus, my machine just didn't want to deal with it and locked me out from 100 Mbps internet. Heh, now I know why... now I know why...
EE105 Lab... no actual lab today. I just went and turned in my Lab report and picked up my homeworks and my mudterms. So much nitpicking!
ARGH!! Oh well, it isn't enough points lost to nitpicking for me to get any substantial return from bitching.
Music 26ac Lecture... guest starring Cecil Brown, author of
Stagolee Shot Billy...
Girl: So there's the whole concept of glorifying the bad man. What about the bad
woman?
Brown: Well, there is the idea of a bad woman, but for some reason--and I personally don't know why--she never gets glorified. Whenever you have a bad woman, we usually just ignore her, but when you have a bad man, hell, he might become President.

- "There's nothing terrible about that. Even a mathematician could do it. You don't have to be an engineer."
- "Let me wipe this *erases '1pOhm'* or else my colleagues will think I'm crazy."
- "The book uses capital V and lower-case 2, but I don't know how to make a lower-case 2."
Also, I reserved a partner for the EE122 project 3, one of the 4 girls in the class, Carise. Apparently, she's also an avid gamer. Speaking of which,
EE122 Lecture was cancelled today because we have a mudterm coming up.
After lunch, I went to the GBC (kinda funny for me to say that, huh?) and traded for a

After grabbing dinner from the GBC (the weather is so cold today!), I brought it in the to go box to the HKN Soda office and chilled until it was time for the

Then, I went fencing. Some amusing anecdotes:
- The score was 4-1, in favor of Severin. He attacked me, and I parried, and his blade shattered upon impact. Ouch!

I went to go talk to Prof Gastpar about EE121 and the EE126 pre-req that I really don't want to take... and his answer was quite ambivalent. Grr...
CS61c Lecture...
Lunch break...
EE120 Lecture... we went over Laplace Transforms. It was a very boring and mechanical lecture, and I'm surprised Anantharam spent so much time on something so trivial. Tracy also taught me more Cube techniques.
Music 26ac Discussion... Jazz is good!
Went to the Music Library to do some listening...
Dinner...
Fencing...
Dice Roll of the Day: (1, 1) Total: 2
Wow... Today's article is so long, yet so meaningless... kinda like yesterday's article! I think it's an artifact of me being tired and it being 1am, which feels like 2am because Daylight Savings Time ended yesterday.
So... umm... Good Night!
