i went to NYC on tuesday, and stayed til just now. it was a lot of fun. accomplishments:

watched the anime series FLCL. really cool. really crazy. the music is lots of fun.
watched the first 12 episodes of scrubs. i need to catch up on this show.
tossed a lot. i think my tan is better. my throws suck.
finished my circuit! and by finished, i mean i cleaned up the lab and brought the breadboard home so the professor has no idea of my progress.
went to the housing office and found it's too late to switch rooms with yui.
i played poker last night with mike, jess, raj, and ben. since i didn't keep records, and i'm going to have to remember this later, i'll keep it here.

eric + 12.20
mike - 3.20
jess + 1
raj - 5
ben - 5

we played from 11 to 2:30, about.

i just got back from foxwood's tonight. lost $55 on texas hold'em, 2/4. my luck was terrible... yes, i blame it on luck. i started off with an 8 9 suited, got an 8 and 9 in the flop, and lost to a woman with a pocket pair of 6's and a 6 in the flop. i won a single hand, a flush in spades. i got two pair one other time besides that first hand, which i folded before the flop on, but it's a good thing because someone else had a higher two pair. i didn't get any straights or 3's of a kind, and only a few pairs. i think i only stayed in 4 times and lost, and those were good calls on my part, i'm sure. the rest was just a slow death.

when i left, raj was up $60+. ed won $130 on blackjack. dammit. i must go back.
