Welcome to the World of Korey/Kaydirt.
I update randomly and in many cases not too often. But stick around. It might be more fun as we go along.
If you want to know who I am, then take some time to read my posts, you might learn a thing or two. Otherwise, either PM me or seek me in the Community Chat. I'm somewhere on here, lurking about.
So, I was typing random letters into my address bar and seeing what my URL history showed up. So here's some of them:
O: Otakuboards
P: Painkiller Already, a podcast I listen to.
M: mail.live.com
F: Facebook
K: Kim's tumblr

I AM SO EXCITED!
Why?
Because I just got a job. The community center on base just opened a new Mexican Restaurant and they are hiring for the position and they want to hire me! I graciously accepted the position and I should be in-processed by Thursday if everything checks out.
This is the best news I've recieved in a long time. OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.
*runs off*
So I'll just type what comes to mind first.
I didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night because there was a lot on my mind. I wondered about relationships, about mistakes I've made and basically where I am at right now in life. I wondered about what people value in relationships. Things like...companionship, trust, comfort, caring, a friend, or whatever.
Obviously this is different for each person and every person has different standards, but it really is unsettling to hear some people's wants in a partner. Looks, money, own a car, have connections to possible careers. In my head, I'm thinking "Whatever happened to dating someone because they were a geuninely nice person? What about the characteristics of ambition, trustworthiness, kindness, and just being there for a person?"
It slowly dawned on me that in the society that we live in now, the one that tends to view only results and not potential, that people tend to care only about what they see right in front of them. Nevermind, that you're a wonderful person that has a charming personality and can easily make friends if you don't have a job at the moment. You are a bum. Period.
Maybe it's just me and I'm being stupid. I don't know.
I really miss Jun Seba. I was looking forward to a new album from him. I was listening to his Counting Stars song and I never noticed before....but he took the guitar sample from the George Benson song "Affirmation"
Side by side
Nujabes:
George Benson:
I did some searching and found that he has sampled other jazz tracks from people such as Bill Evans and Yusef Lateef.
Also, after reading this I heard that Hydeout productions, the people that produced Seba's music, will be relasing some of his leftover tracks. OMG I hope I can get a hand on them.
...have .GIFs in our posts.
So my mom is off from work this next whole week, and I'm hoping that means I can get out of the house a little more often. The last few days have been hot enough to justify trips to the pool.
Also, our landlords have the uncanny ability to plan parties around my family's birthdays. They had a party on my birthday and they're having one on my dad's Birthday in August, lol. It's our Oma's birthday too! She'll be turning 80 and my dad will be turning 40, lol. I was gonna make my dad an old man basket (complete with Bengay, Cane, and thick glasses), but unfortunately I didn't have the money to do that. I suppose a barbeque will have to suffice. At least the people who live around us are very nice and most of them speak English.
