Hello How are you doing tonight?
hey hey haha
haha
you fine doing two chats?
yeah That should be fine
ok dope haha
How is your evening going?
I talked to the guys in charge personally yesterday and they said that we can have as many chats open as we want and as many chats with one person as we want as long as its good conversation
Yeah I emailed them during the last round and asked
the adam guy was trying to stop me and kept opening chats with me and not answering them because he personally doesnt want me doing that.... it was quite annoying
Yeah... I noticed he was doing it in the first place, so I had asked. But he still does that It gets a little frustrating
yeah man
So its good talking to someone who wants to talk
me too man me toooo you going for the Ipad? you could really use it for Industial design my girlfriend loves her ipad pro with the apple pen. She does lots of prototype sketching on it
Yeah I was trying to go for it last time, I didnt know about the multiple chats But yeah It would be really helpful Thats the goal
another thing that sucks about Adam is that he is making all the people that are always on angry and I am not going to chat with him from now on and help the other people get ahead of him because he is not being fair
Well you are a kind person
yes this is a competition but you shouldn't make others angry and try to bring them down because they are ahead of you. you know what I mean? thanks I want to keep you well above amadair which is adam
Its the same idea about industrial design that you were talking about the other night Yeah I figured Ive been trying to maintain 4 chats at a time to keep up I was talking to my mom who is having some competition in real estate and I was really trying to encourage her to just be kind I think it really helps everyone out when you do your best and are kind
man people can get really nasty because of competition
definitely
yeah and in the long run we are going to die and be judge by God and what would someone like Adam say to him you know?
But I still believe it can bring out the best in people too
I think Adam is on again. He opened my chats and isnt responding... lol I think it definitely can bring out the best in people. It all comes to what your intention is
Haha yeah
agree 100%
He just opened up one
I just told him to be nice and enjoy the competition hes not responding
He is replies to me in one
yeah probably because you havent made him so angry haha. he was getting really angry with me he responded now
I try not to cause problems in general And I get supper bothered when people still  have problems when I have tried my best
I know right? I am not a contentious person either and I try to avoid drama as much as possible I am grateful that my friends are the same and are real with each other and avoid drama
I keep looking for those people I dont have too much luck finding them
hey man Ill find you when you take Industrial Design in the Fall and we can totally chill hahaha'
That would be awesome! Im still hoping I get in If not I will try again for the winter
I hope you do Its a super fun major from what I see
Thanks, I am still seriously so excited
I would have tried out for Industrial Design if I knew about it
I am glad someone else I had dinner with, their daughter took it a while ago and they told me about it. THats how I found out about it
dang.... my luck is terrible haha no I think I am where I am supposed to be
Thats good! Its such a good feeling to feel like you are doing what you need to
yeah it is
I just finished all the seasons of the show I was watching What am I going to do with my life now?! Haha just kidding, there is way more to life than TV
You should see if you can go rock climbing around where you are at
I think they have an indoor thing downtown But there are no natural places
I love climbing indoors because you can go back to back without having to hike to a spot or setting up
That is super nice about it I have never actually done rock climbing in a natural setting
well when you come back to school Ill take you haha
That would be fun! How often do you get to get out and go rock climbing?
I used to go every other day and do weekend trips to other areas, but when school started I got wrecked with time  and I haven't climbed in a while
Hahaha school tends to do that
dohnt know if I have already told you about this but Industrial design is really really really really time consuming
I figured it would be I figured it would be like AP photo on steroids basically
junior year is when it gets tapered down with work hahaha
I will look forward to then
you will love it but its one of those majors that you need talent and dedication and good personality I know this kid that didnt get in because he was cocky the professors really get to know you and pick up on everything that you do.
When I was taking AP photo I really wanted to do well. So I waited until senior year when I finished all the classes I needed to, I wanted to graduate early but my mom said no I only had a half day schedule but I was at school almsot every day until 6 pm doing stuff for photography or student council or other teachers. I loved being there I was often In the teachers lounge ahaha I dont think I am too cocky, if at first anything people think I am shy
being shy is fine but be confident that is really important but if the professors just doesnt like you then they wont let you in ha
I usually get there after a month of knowing someone Oh gosh I dont know if its better that I know that or not haha I might get so worried about if they like me Ill just be myself That is the best thing I can do
no I mean be confident in your work and when you present stuff
That makes sense
I know a couple people who didn't get in their first try and they tried again the next year and got in
So there is hope! I was trying to encourage my friend and he really wants to do industrial design, his mind is set on it. But he thinks he is just going to go a different route to get there I still support him
Oh also there are some people in my Girlfriend's year that I have no idea how they got in to the program they are so bad at the things they do
Oh no! That is a little late to try and figure things out
My girlfriend had to carry a project and do it all by herself and I helped her do their work because they couldn't pull their own weight
Oh that is the worst I cant stand group projects like that
My girlfriend also told me that they have like a quota as far as diversity goes are you a white male?
I appear that way, yes.... but I am half hispanic So I tan very well
white males have the least chance of getting in if everyone's skill is the same level ooooh get really tan really really tan my friend haha
Haha lets hope for fall then So I can have my summer tan who needs to worry about skin cancer if I get into the program haha I will use spanish too so it will be more convincing
hahahaha I used to tan like really good and I still do but I developed this allergy against the sun. So if I am around fresh water I get sun rashes than turn in to ginormous hives. but that only happens when I am in fresh water. I can be shirtless climbing or hiking all day literally and just tan
That is so weird!? I am just allergic to sun screen But I have gotten a heat rash before when I was at scout camp for a week in 100 plus weather
holy cow did it blister or anything and ooze out puss?
No mine was barely anything The other scouts got it way bad I think my hispanic side has always given me a higher heat tolerance
Thank goodness for that huh?
Haha yeah! It does really help
what else do you think you are better at than other people because you have some hispanic genes?
Dancing comes pretty easy You know like the hip movement and general motion
dude
But I dont know if its really a thing, or past that
I want those hip movement genes I am stiff as a board
Hahaha
my girlfriend is part Cuban and shes got those hip movements down she wants me to take Latin dancing with her
You totally should Its fun!
yeah I will next year when I dont have so much school work
I took the latin 185 class this semester Yeah thats not a bad idea There were a few couples in my class and they were fun to watch
I took a dance class when I was in middle school and I ddint really enjoy it that much but now that I think of it I think I didnt really like it because i was nervous of dancing with the girls but with my girlfriend I think I would have a blast haha
Haha you will definitely have to dance with other people but everyone there is just wanting to get a credit or have fun So you should have fun, But yall will be able to practice together and compete
oh really? you switch around partners?
Yeah just so you can get to practice with people who might be better with different things
ahhh can you choose to not do that?
Um, it depends on the teacher But when you dance with someone else its for like 30 seconds at most
oh ok but you have a "Main" partner
Yeah, that is who you compete with and can practice with . You can also test with them
gotcha sooo... have you guessed who I am yet?
Like on the leaderboard?
yeah
I figured you wer siratus
surprise?!? haha
Haha so that is right?
yep Hope you dont turn into an Adam and hate me haha most people know by now
No, not at all You have been more than kind
haha thanks I try My Girlfriend has taught me a lot Well, I hope you are fine with me getting the macbook :) haha just kidding You might catch up to me. I am burning out a bit
I dont want the macbook, I just wanted to get an ipad. So if you burn out Ill trade you I just bought a new laptop
oh wow you are so nice well I want to make sure you are above adam at least he is not a cool dude...
No worries if not, I am not sure if I can keep it up this weekend since Ill be traveling Ill try though
I think 2 people get the ipads this round right?
Yep 1 and 2
lets get up as much as we can so you have a nice cousion of points
Haha that sounds good
I think Adam will win another ipad regardless but oh well
But hopefully youll have a nice new laptop! Do you prefer mac over microsoft? or like apple vs android? Its always apple against something haha
hahaha I think we might have had this conversation already I am a PC guy when it come to actually computers because Macs are so overpriced with the components they give you BUT Apple has very high quality stuff and the Sketch App I was telling you about only runs on mac so that is why I am really trying hard to get this mac
Oh I remember now
but PC is my thing because one you can buy parts and build your own computer and have windows onit for cheap but apples does not let you install mac Operating systems on other computers
I tried to explain that same point to someone else and they could not understand why I thought that way Yeah i wish they would be a little more open Apple is nice for their security though
security? mmmm I have to disagree on that Im an IT guy so let me enlighten you as you can tell im pretty passionate about this subject haha
Oh please do! I always thought it was harder to get a bug on an apple product
so the reason why people think apple is harder to get viruses is because at first Apple software was not very popular until about 10 years ago and they advertised it as no viruses for mac! yes its true only because hackers do not create viruses and mailicious programs for macs why? because macs are still the minority computer compared to microsoft more computers and more IT infrastructure is run on windows
Really?! I wouldnt have guessed that
so hackers get more money and more bang when they create hacks on microsoft yep
That totally makes sense though You would think they would do more to hack iphones specifically though
there was a russian guy who made a virus for macs not too long ago and thousands of macs got infected all over the world and apple support and technicians did not know what to do
It seems like everyone has one of those
maybe. did you know that phones are hard to crack because of the way they are programmed?
What makes them different?
easily put, phone has less doors and opening that hackers can try to get through and its not worth their time and effort
Thanks for explaining that it makes sense Thats funny when I was buying my laptop the guy advertised Macs as safer to me And I have always heard that So I believed him
its half truthful haha you know what the best protection against viruses is?
What is it? Dont be dumb?
haha eys yes basically dont go to websites that you dont know. Only surf on things you know you trust do not every click on random links do not click on links sent by people you trust if you dont expect them to send you anything through email
The other day I was trying to go to ebay so I just googled it and clicked the first one it started a virus
never click the advertisement google results oooh yeah that is really bad haha if you can its better to type in the URL and type it correctly and your computer will remember that url and then now its safe
yeah... i learned that the hard way
what kind of computer did you get?
This is all good, thank you for it. I can be alittle safer on the web I got an Asus, I am not sure what kind specifically
yeah man its really easy to get hacked
but it was a pretty penny
oh yeah you told me that already Asuss are nice
Yeah I am so happy with it so far It has the latest processor, the GEFORCE grafics card, 4 k screen, and two tera bytes of storage Hopefully it lasts me a while
when you get in to industrial design you will probably be using their computers most of the time because the computer screens are Wacom tablets and you will be using that a lo oh niceeee i love that. you picked out good components it will last you at least 2 years if you take care  of it
Yeah it also has the 2 in 1 so it works as basically a tablet and I can draw right on it
thats dope
I figured if I dont get into industrial design it is really helpful for photography and other art I do After a couple weddings it will pay for itself haha
I never was a fan of the 2 in 1s or tablets because I never had a use for them except for hand written notes in class. but now I dont write notes in class so yeah haha hahaha good luck with the weddings
Thanks! yeah
maybe if we like your style (mostly my girlfriend) then we might hire you as a photographer for our wedding sometime soon hopefully
Haha that would be sweet, are yall engaged?
not yet its a long story...
Haha You dont have to share But it will happen eventually?
yes it will
Nice!
yeah we've been talking about it for a while now but the timing is hard and planning it takes a while.
yeah planning is insane for weddings
Something weird and cool is that we were both people who wanted to date for at least a year before mentioning or thinking about the M word but love is a crazy thing and we are two peas in a pod and the M word came out earlier than we planned for the both of us
That is awesome, how long have you been dating?
like 7 months now?  i think
Thats not too bad I would like to think I will wait a year or two but I am sure that can happen where you both just know I have a friend who knew after a month At that point they both agreed Now that is crazy fast, I support him and her, but its fast
that is so fast holy cow but I guess when you know you know but I feel like most of the time it doesnt end well
Haha I guess so! When he got engaged I was hiding in the bushes to take their pictures
oh cool!!! some of my friends have asked me to do that
Its kinda fun I would recommend the experience I was hiding behind some rocks laying on my stomach under a tree It was pretty funny when after he pointed me out to her
yeah the last one I did I had to do some rock climbing in order to get to a spot wher I had a good angle and hiding spot because my friend was going to propose at the top of the rocks
I bet that was gorgeous I love the pictures that are out on the cliffs
it was so funny because his now wife did not know we were there and when he kneeled down to propose and after she said yes she tackled him and it got real hot and heavy fast hahahahaha it was so funny and my friend kept looking towards us as that was happening
hahahaha oh my goodness I would have died laughing and been majorly uncomfortable
it was a little bit uncomfortable but we were more stoked and happy for him then anything and I think we forgot about it because of that
Hahaha nice When did she find out yall were there? She probably was embarrassed
she found out after like 5 min of making out because my buddy pointed us out after haha
Hahaha What did she do when she found out
she blushed for like a split second and laughed my buddies and I that know this kid dont know the wife that well she came out of nowhere but we are happy for him
Did he meet her in college?
like you were saying earlier that we support him no matter what
But yall had been friends
yeah they met on tinder haha
Haha thats fun
tinder datesss and marriges
I used tinder in highschool but it was to find models
My brother actually met a girl yesterday and kissed her on the second date and after they kissed the girl said to him "im turning 17 soon" YUCKKKK
Hahaha something similar happened to me Not with a kiss but after I met a girl, who was in college. We went on a few dates and then I found out she was just 17. And then she wanted to get married. WE WENT ON TWO DATES I hadnt even held her hand yet So i backed out of that hard
oh my goodnes what is wrong with people these days
I dont know but it makes for good stories I havent really dated after that I like to get to know the person first
yeah that is really important. I know that people say that all the time but it is really important
I believe it
you have to get out of the honeymoon phase before you truly know the person
Exactly! I forget who it was, I think "aaa" We were talking about what true love was Well she kept asking me what I thought about it And I basically said just what you said
ahhh aaa shes cool. loves junk food haha i like talking to her she hasnt been on today though
Yeah she is a lot of fun to talk to She is one of the people I would want to meet in person But hey its getting late, maybe we will be able to chat when I get up to virginia I hope you have a good night
you too my friend
