Down With The Sickness…

March 21st, 2008 No comments

I’m really sick. Coughs, headaches, stuffy-nose, the whole works. It started on Monday and the worst was yesterday, I’m hoping by Sunday this cold/flu will be gone so I can enjoy a potluck at my house for Easter.

Today, I’ve graduated from training class and I’m now in OCP (Operation: Check Point). No joke, it’s really called “Operation: Check Point”. The difference now is I won’t be having 1 on 1 help. It’ll be 1 mentor for 5 reps, then the next week, 1 mentor for 10 reps, and then the week after I’ll be answering phones little or no supervision.

Next Friday (March 28th) is payday and me and acouple of ther co-wokers decided to go eat at some soul-food restaurant. Should be good from other peoples reviews about it and hopefully they will serve good portions.

Don’t expect and pictures or videos anytime soon, camera is broke. Long story short, I got 3 years extended warranty to protect my camera from damage, but last trip I took to BestBuy to fix my camera (lens wouldn’t retract) they said it might not be repaired because I didn’t buy the accidental warranty. Weak. I don’t know what I’ll be using as a replacement camera for everyday use but a Canon Rebel XSi is in my future. I’m seriously thinking about taking up photography. Iono.

Well, I’ll leave you guys with these interesting videos I’ve found. Well, actually Stumbled Upon. It’s a great plug-in that when you click the Stumble! button, it’ll take you to random websites of categories you can choose from. I use it a lot to randomly surf the web, keeps me on the internet longer that I’m supposed to be.

Anyways, these are typography videos, just view them they’re pretty cool:

There are more but I chose the ones I thought were good. Anyways, you can YouTube them as typography. This is the Samoan-Ninja signing off.. LAtEZ.

I uploaded pictures of Reverend Faigata Falo Tiumalu’s Funeral last night into my gallery. I miight upload the videos I recorded onto YouTube but I don’t know if it’s against the rules to post funerals and or show deceased bodies. Anyways, if you want to add pictures to my gallery, just go ahead and send them to my email tharocksez@aol.com.

Here is an article from the San Francisco Chronicle Obituary/SFGATE:
