Month: November 2010

  • !? HOT HOT HEAT?! is that you!?

    WHAT?! dude.. I heard rumors about how they disbanded and that a new group took over for some reason. I'm not crazy because I know I read it somewhere, and then this video gets posted somewhere. They what?! made a new album?! 6 Months Ago!? 

    Bought it right away. Mp3 Album Bought/Downloaded. Now alls I need to do is get their CD and Vinyl. Haha. It's a damn shame that I missed their concerts in the US but they are still playing gigs in Australia. So all you lucky folks in Australia.. I hate you. Super envious. Hopefully they come back here to the states. Even Europe. I'd make a trip out of it. But.. all in all. I'm glad that they're back. Happiness LTD was a descent album. It couldn't really compare to Elevator or Make Up The Breakdown. Happiness LTD Did do a good remake of 5 times out of 100. Not gonna lie. lol.

    Been Listening to this album for the past 2 hours. I have been enjoying taking off my headphones to hear my ears ring. Can't wait to hear it on vinyl. PLEASE! Support the band! Buy their music. If not I wouldn't blame you. I pirate music all the time XD 

    Hot Hot Heat - Future Breeds Get it. Get it right now. 

  • Got the Sony a580 BEFORE the Release Date!!!

    a580 in the wild!

    My friend was teasing me about the new camera he got at B&H Photo and Video. Not telling me which model it was. I assumed that it was either the a55 or the not yet released a580 (Due to release on Nov 20, 2010). Out of jealousy I wanted to see if I could reserve the a580 so I can pick it up for myself in time for a fashion show that was coming up this friday. I went to their website and looked it up. I was surprised when I saw that B&H said it was in stock, so I called B&H as fast as I could to make sure that they save a copy for me in case it gets sold out.... I got my confirmation number. 

    2 days later got out of work. A 12 hour shift, now driving 2.5 hours from Philly because my GPS took me to 9th Street instead of 9th Avenue lol, and made one of my friends wait for 2 hours. The cold shoulder was inevitable, but she got over it eventually though. 

    Parked my car. Got to B&H. Went to the Clerk. I asked if he had the a580 in stock to see if I still needed the reservation. He looked it up on the computer and told me that it was still in Pre-Order and that it's not available yet. I took a deep breath thinking my long trip of no sleep was for nothing. I told him I had a reservation and that I had a reservation number. Gave him my number and whaddayaknow. They had one saved for me :D

    He punched some buttons and then I saw the box pop up from the conveyor belt. Confirming. That it was indeed the a580. He said I must've had the last one. Because on the computer no one else can get it. HAH! He gave me my receipt and now. I'm with my baby 3 days before release date. AWESOME.

    Funny thing. My friend who teased me just got the Sony a500. He didn't even know that the website said that the a580 was in stock. haha. So I guess I should be thanking him for being a jerk :P

     

    IMO: If I had the last one in stock. Why would it say pre-order. It would have said Out of Stock right? I think they made a mistake in the website, and during that time frame, I made my reservation. Which broke through their pre-order .. thingy. i'm sure B&H has the cameras in stock. But Sony isn't suppose to release those cameras until November 20, 2010. HIGH FIVE ME!!! I might be one of the few that currently have the Sony a580 in hand. I feel Special :3

    your proof of authenticity. THE RECORD BUTTON. HUZZAH!

  • I'm alive!

    :wheez: :wheez: Yes! sorry! haha! yeah.. i'm alive. sorry for my stupid long ass hiatus. I don't get much downtime since honestly, i actually have been pretty busy. Work has been taking a lot out of me and they changed our hours to one of the most shittiest hours 12pm-9pm?! really? super whack. Good news though I got a bunch of new toys I'll need to review. very happy of my purchases. Purchases include: X-Series Sony Walkman, AKG K701 Headphones, and some other crap.

    I also got a sweet ass deal at Walmart since they were getting rid of their display TV's they sold it for cheap. Got my 42" Sony Bravia for $487 (aweeessommmee). Shitty news It just came with the tv, no stand or anything so I tried to buy the stand in eBay. They lied. i got the wrong part. Wasted $70. Luckily! a nearby store closing down sold a wall mount for half the price. And i just happened to finish installing it.

    A Nerds Paradisio.

    I'll show you guys a better view after i've finished cleaning up the joint lol. But yeah! A lot of things to look forward to! a lot of things I need to post. And I am making a promise to post at least one new picture for every post! that's just how i'm gonna roll from now on. Love yous ♥ Miss yous too! Take care everyone!
