Bad Bloggers go to Berlin

iPhoto Backups
After a hiatus of three years, I finally own a working digital camera again (more on that later). As a result, I now have a use for iPhoto.

Could the Internet Have Saved These Local Bands?

Here’s the same photos I posted yesterday but […]

Uhuh.
I’m so moody and bah, it really sucks. I miss Rob. I mean, I saw him yesterday because I stayed over on my birthday… but I mean we didn’t really hang out or anything. And i didn’t see him today. And like when we hang out as of the last few times, we’re not really […]

To Tip or Not to Tip the Nutty Waiter?
This question has been on my mind for a few days.
I went to a restaurant the other day with a few of my colleagues from work. It was lunch time and this restaurant offers buffet for lunch. We have gone to this place many times before but recently there seems to be a new […]
