summer's over, but that's fine

after the request of a friend that i know, i decided to write again.

Summer has been wonderful. Working at summer paradise, being with the kids, and forging new bonds with people that I thought I would never make bonds with. I'm glad working, of all things, gave me the opprotunity to develop so many things in my life. Patience with the kids and love for those around me, among other things. Because of work, I didn't get to hang with alot of friends, but there's always break. Hit me up for some good times.
--------------------------------------------------------------
School is about to start on Monday, and I really did not want summer to be over because, for once, I didn't go to school during the summer and I had fun, every singly day. This summer probably ranks as one of the better ones, next to the one at stonybrook during the summer going into 8th grade and going to Japan.

I was really happy when auntie Wendy gave me the position of CIT. It didn't pay much, but honestly, I really didn't care. I wanted to do something besides sit on my rear end in front of my pc. The pictures I have posted pretty much tells all what went on at my job. I thank God for giving me that opprotunity. Fo' Sho.

Btw, basketball is fun again.

A run down of the summer:

End of may to mid june- hangoutage
Mid-June to Mid-August: Summer paradise =D

Mid August- Otakon.....
Alright, so otakon was a WHOLE LOT BETTER. At first I wasn't gonna go, but then one thing convinced me to go : JAM project. Sure I don't watch anime anymore, and learning Japanese has more meaning than just learning how to read and understand what my import games are saying, but hey, JAM project just gets you pumped. I can't listen to their songs all the time, but when you listen to them, its like, "Hey, I feel like kicking some ass and doing something awesome." Besides, live shows for artists that you like are always awesome. Too bad I missed that Foo Fighters concernt in jersey =/. Oh well, next time. If the headliner for otakon next year is just as good as this year was, maybe a 3rd trip will be in order.


Songs that I played too much this summer:
The Greatest Man That Ever Lived, Only in Dreams, Heart Songs, The Angel and the One, Across the Sea - Weezer
Senseless - Asian Kung-Fu Generation
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Baba O' Riley, Young Man Blues - The Who
Ride the Lightening - Metallica
Heartbreaker, You Know What Time is it?! - Teriyaki Boyz
U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer (I made so many references to this stupid song in and out of work)
Zombie - Fela Kuti
Holy Thursday - David Axelrod
Last Bongo in Belgium - Incredible Bongo Band

Melody listens to too much Jonas Brothers. They're good at what they do, which is attract pre-pubescant little girls. Luckily, Weezer released the Red Album earlier in the summer, so I listend to those tracks to death. The songs also pretty much tells the story of how my summer went.

To the incoming college freshman:
Don't let college eat you alive. It's actually pretty fun, believe it or not. If you actually try. You are what you make it, is what I say(I say that for everything. If you do something and you think it's fun, turns out it could be). Keep your head above the water, but let loose a little bit. Time to have some fun, cause it's not all work. Instructions may or not apply to all other older people.

To the QHC people and coworkers:
I'm sick of seeing your faces 6-7 times a week. Too bad I didn't mind you guys at the same time =P. Good times is all I gotta say.

To Friends that I didn't see at all or often:
Sorry I didn't see you guys. I'm always around, so just hit me up. When we did hang though, twas fun. We should do it again.

Finally, I'm just gonna post my new mailing address.
Nicholas Moy
703 Park Point Drive
Unit 2C
Rochester, NY 14623

I like IM's, but write me from time to time. Letters are awesome.

So guys, I'll ttyl.

Stay safe, and stay happy. Ja~ne.
