If you wanna be with me, baby
There's a price you pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
I gotta like what you do

Originally I had written the blog upon my return from the recent sporting event, but my internet prohibited me from posting sooner.

I just got back from a Queensland Roar Football match in an almost ecstatic mood. The Roar have a long history of losing a majority of their home games, and managed to pull off a win with a wonderful last minute strike to win the game. As part of an early birthday celebration, I went down wiht my brother and 5 other mates to watch the game. The opponents were Newcastle Jets. Sadly enough, they managed to score the first goal, putting our spirits down low. But with a wonderful heard by Nicholls in the end of half time to equalise help us get into the mood of things. Late in the 2nd half, a red card for Newcastle followed. Throughout the game, the Queensland support had been crazy, and this red card made everyone extremely excited. We were all screaming at the referee and opposing players. The main forward, Van Dijk, scored the last goal in the last 30 seconds of the game to win it for us. Believe me, we went ballistic. Everyone was jumping up and down, cheering and screaming. Hard objects were being thrown into the air in delight. It was a great game to go to. I will be posting up match highlights very soon, as well as a video I recorded off my phone of the in stadium after party.
What a wonderful birthday present!!!


It would be advisable to open in youtube and view in high definition.


Match Facts:
At 32 seconds into the video, a high pitch noise can be heard. This is of my friend with his airhorn, trying to distract the jets player. Failed.
At 3 mins 25 seconds as they are panning over the crowd, I am wearing the Queensland Roar shirt, next to my friend nick (yellow) as he leans down.

Thought I'd give namfox a try in this thing. See how it works out. I've had a pretty stress-free day and came home and passed out after spending $76 on necessities. Let's just say I'm balanced with as much of this crap I've been smokin'.

So apparently after my store manager gets back in town we are all having a store meeting because one of the managers with instant-asshole on everyone and everyone started texting him while he was out of town assisting another store. And somehow, I find myself in the middle of it. As if I know exactly what's going on but I don't and this is some pressure cuz I don't even feel like going to that meeting anyways.

Anyways, so I ended up going with Verizon Wireless now that my contract with Helio is up. I also ordered the Blackberry Storm. I don't know what to expect so I may do a full-review blog on it and take pics. I'm sort of curious about all that it can do. Apparently the entire screen is one big button you have to click. So you navigate via touchscreen but execute the command by clicking in the screen. Can't wait to see if that is a win or fail on my phones part. But I am diggin' the fact that it comes pre-installed with an 8gb SD card that can be swapped out with a 16gb SD card. Pretty nifty. Its screen is also apparently better quality than the iPhones, yada yada. I'm not really reading into all the things it can supposedly do better than the iPhone because in all fairness, I actually wanted an iPhone, but someone that took my identity here in New Orleans ran up an account with them in my name and never paid and they wanted an $800 deposit. So I said goodbye to the iPhone. But I do wish to return to the Apple store and buy a macbook sometime. Just to have to help with graphics and animations. This one I have now is just so sad when it comes to running Photoshop, etc. I play Fable on it every so often, but all the graphics are turned way down low and it still runs like poo. It's just not meant for more than typing in notepad and running slow as hell from leaving open firefox all the time. Any who, this tangent has started to get on my nerves, so I'm ending it just around the other word between here and the period.

Yo, I think a lot of you know me, Aina.
Just decided to make a blog for myself. X3

Well, let's start with my horrible experience moving back to Texas, yes, back, It was horrible and I didn't have a choice whether to stay with my mom or dad, I had to go to my dad, but his attempts at cheering me up where sad, starting by going on a longer route was horrible, we went to Mt. Rushmore, and that was the only benefit from going the longer route, yes, I love history and it's my strongest subject in school.

But the worst thing was my mom was the only person I could depend on to talk to or go out on a "all girls day" to the spa and mall going to Hollister and such. She was my closest friend and the hardest thing to get rid of. When we finally arrived, the house was in HORRIBLE condition, dog poop stains and everything you could imagine, occasionally you would see fairly large spiders around the house, the house in Colorado had NO mess at all, seeing how the house over there was also a Spa, it had to be clean. The house was my dad's at first, before we moved to Colorado that is. But we didn't know we'd be moving back, so we sold it to my brother-in-law and my older sister (Wife and husband) Everyone in my family is Muslim, so it's not a good idea to by dogs because in the Quran it states dogs are dirty animals and aren't a good pet, now I for one love dogs, I'll say that, but still, Have you seen what some dogs do? But my sister still bought two little rascals who SERIOUSLY did some damage to the house.

Today, I still regret moving.

Recently addressed the issue of fandom and psycho fanboys crying like *bleep*-faces or raging like egocentric little brats in my Sunday Special. I love games. I worship my own list of awesome titles.

Seriously though, how can people get so worked up over what a couple of television execs say about video games? Fable II took X-Play's GotY award. So WHAT? GTA IV took SpikeTV's GotY. Yeah, are you going to slit your wrists now?

No, "Fable II sux" and "GTAIV is gay" are not valid defenses. Your way is not the high way, and neither is X-Play's or SpikeTV's. They passed their verdicts, but why should that effect you? Does the fact that your favorite game didn't get nominated or chosen mean you'll like it less?

No, it does not! Now quit cryin' and make you're own damn award show if it matters so much. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, even those guys at G4 and SpikeTV, so quit being acting like annoying little douchebags.

Christ.

Yes, I got a trombone just yesterday for school, and I am really excited to play it! I already play the trumpet for my school band, but I was getting bored of that. I have learned so much so far, and I am so glad that I have it.

Anyways earlier today I was practicing, and I noticed my pitch was going flat! It's been flat, so I think my trumpet skills are making my trombone skills rusty :P

Aren't new instruments a hassle to learn at first, but a great pleasure if you can play it well?

The RRoD is sort of one of those things you read about all the time, but if you haven't experienced it you feel like its almost a myth, or curse, that has hopefully passed you by. That's how I've always felt anyway. Then suddenly I fell victim to the sinister beast.

Thankfully Microsoft did the right thing with extending existing owners to a 3 year warranty against the RRoD. I called 1-800-4-MY-XBOX (this number works in both Canada and US) on a Friday night at 7:30pm PST and got through within 2-3 minutes to a tech support agent. Now that's impressive.

He walked me through a few steps, and we confirmed a RRoD General Hardware Failure. He then offered to either ship me a box (~5 business days) or send me a fully paid electronic waybill to ship the X360 back absolultely free. I chose to go with the waybill since we have plenty of boxes here.

I was told the turnaround is about 2-3 weeks. I was concerned about the horror stories of bad repairs or refurbished units that die soon after being sent as RRoD replacements, so I talked to the fellow some more. He told me that apparently in Canada if you get the RRoD they take your 360 back and give you a brand new unit with a new manufacture date, which presumably means I get a Jasper system, with the redesigned cooler, 65nm CPU/GPU and 150W PSU (vs 175W PSU). This is highly exciting to me also since I think it means I'll have HDMI out (currently I don't).

How it all happened

I don't play my Xbox alot. Probably around 3-5hrs a week depending on time, but as much as 10-15hrs when I'm really into a game. I've had my box for around 2years, but when I played GOW1 I had a few overheating related lockups. Lately in the past 2 months I've had maybe 3-4 lockups accompanied by video artifacts. Tonight I got one, and right afterwards the famous ring.

Good Experience So Far

Well anyway, RRoD sucks, but the customer service was fast, patient/courteous, and it looks to be effective. I'll keep my fingers crossed. So far this is one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had.
