I Need Business Socks

“I turn it into a sexy dance!”

… Classic.

Bathroom Mechanics

What’s up with people going to the bathroom in waves? It seems like I sit down in the stall and I have a good peaceful 5 minutes, then all of a sudden, drones of people come walking in. One after the other, the entire bathroom fills up in about a span of 30 seconds. It’s almost like when you play blackjack, you either win a bunch rounds in a row, or you lose a bunch of rounds in a row. Similarly, either the bathroom is jam packed, or the bathroom is completely empty.

Why can’t there ever be a good median? I can manage with one other shitter two stalls away from me, but I just hate it when I’m right smack in the middle of two bellowing beasts!

All Played Out

I was clearing out some old songs on my iPod nano today and I decided to check out which songs got the most play time during the gym. I have to say, the results were pretty surprising:

01. All-American Rejects - The Last Song - 70 times
02. The Sounds - Night After Night (alternate version) - 57 times
03. Keane - Is It Any Wonder - 55 times
04. The Sounds - 24 Hours - 52 times
05. Notorious BIG - Juicy - 50 times
06. Sergio Mendes - Yes, Yes, Y’all - 48 times
07. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Cheated Heart - 47 times
08. Eminem - Shake That Ass For Me - 46 times
09. Akon - Smack That - 42 times
10. The Sounds - Song With A Mission - 40 times

I’m not quite sure how The Sounds got on the Top 10 list 3 times, but it’s probably just because I added their songs in since I’ve owned my iPod. So to make things fair, the most popular songs I’ve added recently are:

Freezepop - Less Talk More Rokk - 21 times since 3/27/2007
Young Love - Find A New Way - 22 times since 2/19/2007

There you have it, me in a nutshell based on the contents of my iPod.

No Longer Alone

I am no longer alone in the world!

For those who don’t know me well enough, this guy has the exact same odd-ball Chinese name I have. Amazing. But I’ve had mine a full 6 years before his, so I’m the original gansta. He even put up photos of his IDs on his page, I guess ID theft is not a big issue in China.

And on a side note, for those wondering, my Chinese surname is usually spelled “Zhai”, so instead of Jay Yen Jair, I would be Jay Yen Zhai. Of course it doesn’t sound cool at first, but I would have some awesome initials. I suppose people would have to call me…

Jay-Z?

or maybe…

Jay-YZ? hmmm…. deep.
