i went to a hula hoop dance class yesterday. i can't believe it was only yesterday, it seems like at least a few days. it was interesting... the instructor said i could be guaranteed to burn a lot of calories, but i didn't really feel like i got a huge work out out of it. the best i figure was that i may strengthen and work out my stomach area. i may buy my own hoop and see if it helps me get a small work out...

i bought diablo 3 yesterday, because c wanted me to play with him. we got about 3 hrs in and so far i really like it. i also really like spending time with him. when we play together, it's not like when we play other games together, especially with other people around. i think we want the same things from a game.. not to do it quick, but to do it right and for fun. he hates being rushed, and sometimes i need some time to figure things out too, although sometimes he does take a little too much time, but overall we usually do well together in a game.

i have still been talking to that girl. we've now added each other on skype, but haven't had much of a chance at conversation. it's looking good so far though.

so i don't know if i said, but my brother got into nyu and was going to study film, but we realized tuition was going to be too costly. it's 60k a year, and we didn't really get any financial aid besides loans, but the interest rate on those aren't pleasant and they take into effect as soon as the funds are pulled out. it took a lot of time, but in the end, my brother decided the smarter choice would be to go to community college, even though he was reluctant at first, i think he's sort of gotten used to the idea of going to community college.

so we were supposed to have shin move in with us, but now it's kind of up in the air. he has to move out of his place by the end of june, so he has until that time to make a choice between living with his uncle and living with us. shin says that the benefit of living with his uncle is that his job is literally 10 minutes away from his work. his uncle's rent is a bit higher, but he also gets his own parking spot. he also wouldn't have to pay utilities. the rent here is slightly lower, but with utilities, it would probably end up being the same amount. i guess the thing he's really weighing is close to work... and living with friends vs an uncle. i'm not sure how close he is to his uncle, so that could be or maybe not awkward...

i was thinking that my brother should maybe move in with us. but c doesn't seem to like this idea. he doesn't like certain aspects of my brother, which i can't blame i guess cause i see his faults, but i wish he could learn to like him. but i guess i see how trying to like someone that you really don't like could be difficult, but if it was c's sibling, i imagine i would try it.
