Josh Kim dot Org

*Josh Kim is opinionated. Extremely.

I mean, seriously. How can you go wrong with a name like “Cool”? Their music… almost always brings a quick smile to my face. I cannot help but to bob my head from left to the right, over and over again. I might possibly become coding music soon. It’s late/early, right? I think it has to do something with coffee consumption. 3 cups, to be exact. I never got into coffee in such a large way until this “semester”… I might have to get a coffee maker, if I ever move into a place.

I think it’s almost official. I’ll be on campus next “semester” (again, I use this word as if it has something to do with me… but it doesn’t). Now, it’s about finding a place to live. I guess this is the place to shout for help while I start looking through apartment listings or whatnot. Finding spring subleases are definitely easier than fall subleases… maybe I can piggyback off of someone’s room. Seriously, I have no stuff… I live out of a suitcase, and I’m fine.

One of the many goals I have for the rest of the year is to learn more Ruby. I tried to start learning again today, but I got sidetracked with people. I went to the lounge of ISR and met so many familiar faces… which helped me to realize that I’ve been neglecting some of these relationships. If “people” were one of my many reasons to stay there, I better make “people” a priority.

Okay, that was an interesting tangent. So back to this programming language called Ruby. [It's going to get nerdy from here, please skip if you're not a nerd] While JoshKim.Org will stay PHP… and I want to learn to program a little bit more modularly using the plug-in system with WordPress… I will learn Ruby for some initial experimental web applications. Lots of little ideas rolling around, and I should start fleshing them out.

Goals for this coming week and the rest of the year…

• Hanja: Finish through 3rd grade.
• Only a few pages left.
• Finish the entire book by end of year.
• Japanese: Keep going with the lessons.
• Be able to read hiragana with no problem. ALMOST.
• Start Katakana
• By the end of the year: Be able to read all kana.
• Quiet Times
• Freak, I’m slacking.
• Daily. Prayer. Sweetness.
• Ruby
• Learn as much Ruby and Rails as possible.
• Write one coherent, fleshed out web application and put it on HanMeta.
• PHP/Web Design
• Freelance
• Need to look for another client. Keep working for first one.
• Work
• Start work on Monday. Rock out.
• WIG
• This is top priority… after my work… or is it?
• JoshKim.Org v. 1 will be complete
• The main (no… not jkmain) page should be complete.
• Blog
• Need to find a better blogging software. Wordpress’s online interface isn’t good enough… need to be able to do things on the desktop.
• Figure out what the heck this site is going to be about… if I keep writing about random crap online, will it work?
• Have a link blog? Link to things I find interesting online?
• I do blog at incredible speed…

The funny thing is, this really sums up my life. Minus “people”. I don’t know how to categorize such a wide field of things… yikes.
