GET OFF OF MY INTERNET.
•January 12, 2010 •You know what bothers me the most? Having a slow internet. Seriously, I have been so confused as to why lately my internet has been the slowest thing on the earth. I had recently upgraded to Comcast Cable. It is a very sexy internet I must say but all of sudden I get lag spikes and extremely slow internet. Randomly, I can stream YouTube videos in about twenty seconds but lately I have to pause which is ridiculous. 10 megabyte download speed my ass. So I finally am fed up and decided to go do some science experiments.
This was taken a few days ago at speedtest.net. These results are utmost horrible. How do I have a better upload speed than a download speed. It does not make sense. After constantly googling things I came to a conclusion. GET OFF OF MY INTERNET. I realized that four computers were connected to the computer at that time. My sister downstairs is on Facebook, iChat, probably some webcam, all while having some YouTube video in the back. Who knows what my dad was doing. The other computer is connect to the internet but not running anything and myself was aimless surfing the web *cough* Watching CommunityChannel seeing the lovely Natalie Tran. <3 *cough* Woah. Who says surfing the web these days anyways. Needless to say, I am pissed with these poor results. And for the record I am smart enough to distort my IP address. TAKE THAT HACKERS.
I decided to do the test again today. I did it at 12:41 when everyone is asleep. Look at my results.
What the…11.28 mb/s download speed. I got over 10x my previous download speed. Which brings me to the conclusion. GET OFF MY INTERNETS. Gah. Of course this is probably untrue. Comcast Cable is extremely unrealiable to me I feel. I just went on YouTube to test out my 11.28 mb/s connection and I watched a YouTube video (SoReal CruTV. Subscribe to them, they got extremely better once ABDC ended. I’m serious. If they went on the show with the skills they have now, I am pretty sure they would get more votes than supercr3w.) that loaded particularly fast in HD then I went to watch another video and my internet dipped to the whole less than 1 mb per second thing again. I mean. I am just getting so fed up with this internet now. Sometimes it is slower than my past constant 1mb/s internet. At least my last internet did not get lag spikes. Gah.
I know extremely nerdy. Other than that nothing really hit my mind today. I take my internet seriously. And in conclusion to this whole experiment. My family does slow down the internet but that does not explain why it slowed down again after I started watching a few YouTube videos. I did rate Comcast Cable after did…I gave them a 2 stars…unhappy. Until this fix this weird speed jumps I won’t be happy at all. Angry customer right here.
Yeah other than that my day was pretty uneventful. I went to school learned a few things…lol. Then I went home where I slept for about four hours. I hate doing that. I feel like after a four hour nap that I have no energy and I just want to go back to sleep. It sucks. D: Well, tomorrow I actually do have another topic to discuss. We will see tomorrow what fun stuff Kevin has in store.
Eh. This was more of an informational rant than a funny entry. Just throwing it out there.

Cajun Food
•January 11, 2010 •I do not know what happened today. I spent an anywhere between an hour and a half to two hours blogging today. Ouch. That took a long time to get all the pictures down and fix them up. Yeah, using the FinePix camera was actually harder than I remember.
Well, today was a Sunday. Sunday is a day where I normally do nothing. I woke up at eight o’clock to watch reality TV then I went back to sleep again. Haha. Then during the day I just lounged around the house until I went to my aunt’s house for dinner.
Lol, normally, we do not go to relative’s houses for dinner on a Sunday. Sunday is just totally random. Well, my aunt made us Cajun Food
Surprisingly, it was good. We had some King Crab in the Cajun seasoning then with some shrimp. Then to tie it all together we had some sweet corn. It was legit stuff. However, I hate eating stuff like this because of how messy it is. We had so much food leftover and I feel completely fat now. Oh and for the record I did not even touch a Shrimp. I only moved shrimp from my plate to my sister’s. Eh. There is only time I like shrimp and that is on my Shrimp Cocktails and in Tempura but other than that its a no go. It was a good meal.
Yeah afterwards we watched Mr. Bean. Mr. Bean is such a classic to me because I remember watching that when I was young. However, I could not find it that funny yet all the adults were laughing their ass off. Strange. I think because I am a teenager, the things I find funny are different. *sigh* I probably have a low sense of humor. Or maybe, my whole family laughs at low humor and the things I laugh at are high comedy. Hopefully. Haha.
Well, thats all for today. That is all I did and I still need to get on top of homework. Sigh. Tomorrow will be more eventful hopefully. I hate writing lame boring entries like this.
Japantown Special
•January 10, 2010 •Wow, I did come back. If there are any people out there you might have noticed that I stop blogging after specials. The reason why is because usually I am too afraid to devote that much time to blog. Usually specials can take up a couple of hours to write and explain. Enstead of doing the normal, I think specials will dominate full of pictures and have less talking. Maybe a few words under each picture but usually be filled with tons of pictures. So get ready because this is the Japantown, SF edition of subsequent ramblings. Damn, I can’t even start the entry because it is still upload the tons of pictures I took. Don’t worry. Half of them are embarrasing so they won’t go on. Haha.
Morning started out with people coming over and having some French Toast. I have become pro at making French Toast now. I have learned how to put all the secret ingredients and buying the FRENCH TOAST bread (Safeway brand) and following the directions on the back. Lol. What a cheater.
Pro cooking skills. Seriously. Three French Toasts at once.
On the way to Bart. Driving from San Jose to Fremont. They are building a San Jose station eventually! Damn, by the time it is finished I won’t be using it anymore. Sigh.
Highway is CRAWLING with highway patrol. Good thing we were driving in the speed limit. =P
Crazy Bart tickets. It took us like five minutes to understand how they work. So they scan your ticket when you board a station and then they scan it once you leave a station. If you did not pay the right fee it will not let you through. It’s pretty cool but if I had left an extra five cents on my Bart Ticket I could have kept it. Stupid system.
We kept ourselves entertained on the whole train ride. We renacted a Korean Drama which actually was kinda fun. The sites were just really different. I have taken Bart one time before this when I was a wee little child. Yeah, I have taken CalTrain before but never Bart. Overall it was a pretty interesting train ride.
The Station we got off at was at Montgomery St. This station was FILLED with Apple advertisements. This station was considered in the Financial District on Market St. I found out that the best station we should have got off of was Powell St. Oh well.
Stairs or the Escalator. What would a fitness person choose. What would a smart person choose. What do you think Kevin choose. Yeah, I was lazy.
The first thing right out of the station. Wow. Breathtaking sites. Seriously.
We made it in one piece! Now we had to walk around confused for about ten minutes to figure out where we were.
Waiting at the Muni bus stop for bus number 38. VERY interesting chairs. They are usually down unless you sit on them. Then they become a seat. I always thought bus stops were mostly the same with the classic bench. This one had those seats and they had a little monitor to tell us when the next bus was coming. VERY useful. I guess San Jose isn’t up to par.
Muni tickets…Not that advanced. They just rip off the time that this ticket is valid to. This ticket is valid till 8:45ish. Just look at the bottom to tell. Or maybe that means 8:30…idk.
After we got off of the bus we had no idea where to go. Luckily, there was a small group of Asian girls that got off. Someone just thought of a smart idea to follow them and probably they will take us to Japantown. We followed them and boom we were at Japantown. The group of girls are in the left of this picture.
We spent some time taking in the sites. Very Asian…
We ate at a place called iroha. You might know that I am alergic to sesame seeds. I ordered some California Rolls without sesame seeds and a bowl of ramen. The bowl of ramen had sesame seeds in them. Wow. They nicely made me another bowl of ramen though so its all good. Haha. It sucks being alergic to sesame seeds.
My fatass could not wait for the next bowl of ramen to come so I just ate a california roll while waiting. Ahhh sesame seedless california rolls. So good. I RARELY eat California rolls because of the seeds.
I’m not really a tea fan. I’d rather just drink a coffee or a glass of water. Tea is just strange to me.
I bought an Asian keychain thing. It was a Samurai Sentai Shinkenger keychain. Shannon is into this stuff. You might know this stuff as the Power Rangers. Yes, in Japan it is much more intense. Their current season is a samurai themed Power Rangers. I’ll name this when it comes to America, Power Rangers Samurai Status. It is pretty intense in Japanese. Japanese people take their Power Rangers seriously.They actually bleed! I got the pink ranger. Damn. Shannon got the pink ranger too.
A nice Japanese style crêpe after lunch. We ordered from Belly Good Cafe & Crepes. I think it is supposed to be a pun. Belly good? That could sound like very or really. Lol…not really. I’m actually not sure but they serve really good crepes. I’d check it out next time you are in Japantown.
Yeah, after that we walked around and shopped. I didn’t buy much sadly. We had a really good time. Afterwards everyone crashed on Bart. Seriously. Almost everyone fell asleep. The ride back seemed much shorter. Afterwards a couple of people came back to my house and we played an intense game of Texas Hold ‘Em.
I was doing pretty good and for the longest time it looked like I would win. Sadly at the end, I lost. The last hand costed me. I lost four bucks. Not too bad. We didn’t want to put in too much money because we were poor from Japantown. I had no time during poker to take good pictures. It was just hand after hand. I think I am getting better. Hopefully. Clint won the pot. It was ten bucks. SHIT.
Yeah. Japantown was hella fun. I’ll just stick this random picture in here.
How tourist-like. Lol. Uh, I’d go again. I do want to. It was fun but next time I think we need to stop by Haight St. and Union Square. We were kinda on a tight schedule. Oh well. It was a fun day. Tomorrow I will go back to the original style of blogging. WHAT A RECORD. 24 pictures. YAY. That’s hella good. See ya soon.
Leave a CommentAnother day another blog entry. That is a reference to Spongebob Squarepants even though it seems extremely obscure. Mr. Krabs says, “Another day, another nickel,” as a little reminder that he is a cheap ass. Seriously. Another day another dime would be nice. If you made a nickel a day you would make a total of around $18.20 year not including the whole tax system, sick days, vacation days, I don’t feel like going to work days, or any of that stuff. I’m just wondering does that include health benefits or something because I bet you diseases underwater travel like The Plague. Lol. I used The Plague to describe another disease. People would probably say like, “Becky, this rumor is spreading faster than The Plague girlfriend.” But you never would say this H1N1 is spreading faster than The Plague…right? It’s like you can’t use the same word to give the definition of a word. This is just a whole confusing thing but I am pretty sure you cannot go around saying this disease is spreading faster than The Plague. Unless something is really spreading faster than The Plague and you want to confuse people by acting like you are using a hyperbole but in truth you are being serious. It is a big cycle you know?
