Welcome to Phamdora

Ahhh, I haven't watched Avatar in a couple months, but I can't stop thinking about it. The professor who created the language of the Na'vi is offering a class. I want to go to there.
Many people continue to criticize the movie for not having an original story. To those people, I say your face is unoriginal! James Cameron took a story that has been redone and reimagined an inconceivable amount of times. He just did it the best. Jeff Buckley's version of "Hallelujah" wasn't the original, but it was the best. Battlestar Galactica(2004) wasn't the first, but it was THE BEST! If you can take a piece of shit and turn it into a diamond, you are brilliant. Just admit it members of the Snarky Cockgobblers Club, you love something that the average-brained American loves as well.

Last weekend was so much fun. On Friday, Mel, Buddy, and I went to College Station for a dance party thrown by none other than the Queen of Cutting Rugs, Rachel Acevedo. Most of the time, we just stood around and talked loudly, but I was completely content with that. The following night, I went downtown with Mike and the Koreans for David's bday. This night was also incredibly exhilarating. I have not "pre-gamed" since my college days, but it sure is a good idea. I can't wait til they come back to town.

Yesterday, one of my students asked for help with a problem on the computer. I got up begrudgingly and let out a sarcastic, "makin' me get up and do work." Another student, the gentleman mentioned in a previous post responded, "you need to go to work, Mr. Pham. This ain't no Holiday Inn!"

Tonight is Buddy B's Big Ballz Bday Bonanza, we plan on having an extremely hard work day so that we may fully enjoy the greatness that is the Hard Day Rita at Z Tejas/Mat's El Rancho?(Where are we going again?)

We had TAKs this week. I got to use a walkie talkie. I really wanted to get some, so I looked them up online. The good ones have a 30 mile radius. I told Buddy that we both could get one and talk from our apartments. He quickly burst my bubble by telling me there would be interference...LAME. I still want some in case I need to talk to Mel about coordinating an attack on LC with nerf guns as she exits the shower wearing only a towel. She thinks she's in the Phamily :)

I think it would be really cool if on Halloween 2010, every person in the world agrees to dress up as Na'vi. I remember the year that everyone was a 300 and that movie sucks compared to Avatar. Imagine the possibilities!!

I see you...(Mel told me that line was stolen from The Joy Luck Club, but nobody cares because AVATAR!)
