Episode 16 of Pure Pwnage came out yesterday as a sneak peak for viewers in Canada. I’m pretty excited, not gonna lie! I really love that online show, and every episode is fun to watch. For those of you that don’t know, Pure Pwnage is a show about a guy named Jeremy, who games 24/7. His brother Kyle films everything Jeremy does in a documentary style. A lot of Jeremy’s gaming becomes real life when his friends become his enemies, and people start using their powers from video games for good/bad in RL (real life). It’s very niche and you really have to be a gamer to understand most of the jokes in the show.

After traveling to Canada in March of ‘06 with a friend, I can honestly say Pure Pwnage changed my life. I’ve met people worldwide through the forum community and the ones I’ve met in real life. I have taken the most enjoyable vacations ever, and I have the best memories of each one. The cast and crew are also people I’m thankful for meeting. They are all very nice and kind to their fans, specially the hardcore ones. I respect the PP crew for not becoming a mainstream show, and keeping to their origin, online with the gamers that started watching the show a few years ago.

Pure Pwnage is always a great treat to be had every few months when a new episode is introduced.

Back on track: The episode will be available online for free download on the 8th of this month, and I’m looking foward to watching it with my boyfriend, Darren, who I met in Canada through Pure Pwnage. <3

Microsoft Research started this new computer visualization of the entire universe (or, at least what we know now as the universe). It basically lets you pan through the universe to wherever you want to go. Being a bit of an astronomy geek myself, I would LOVE to fly through the universe on a big projector screen. It’s like bringing one of my dreams to life (almost…).

This is the website

And here is a video

It’s beautiful. It’s just plain astronomical (ha, no pun intended.) I can see why it made Scoble cry.

I just got home from a karaoke bar downtown here in Springfield… It’s pretty fun. Full of a wide range of people, good cheap alcohol, and fun songs. I’ve made a lot of friends there… But you know what I really wanna do? I wanna go to Japan and visit a real karaoke roomu. Where you invite a bunch of co-workers or friends and drink sake (sake o nomimasu!) and sing til you are so drunk you fall over!
