Well, I'm now going to be looking for a new job, after working with the same company for 4 years, I feel I've overstayed my welcome. There are going to be big changes happening and I'm NOT going to stick around to see them. I refuse.

Did you get to watch some of the FIFA U-20 World Cup games?

No, I wish though. My city didn't have a big enough stadium for something of that caliber. We're like the 4th/5th biggest city in Colombia too smh.

Nicknamed '24,' Cuban man considers his 4 perfectly formed extra digits a blessing

In this photo taken Wednesday Aug. 24, 2011, Yoandri Hernandez Garrido, 37, known as "Twenty-Four" shows his 12 fingers in Baracoa, Guantanamo province, Cuba. Hernandez is proud of his extra digits and calls them a blessing, saying they set him apart and enable him to make a living by scrambling up palm trees to cut coconuts and posing for photographs in this eastern Cuban city popular with tourists. Known as polydactyly, Hernandez's condition is relatively common, but it's rare for the extra digits to be so perfect. (AP Photo/Javier Galeano) (Javier Galeano, AP / August 26, 2011)

Since my computer's been [expletive]ed up the last few days, I didn't get a chance to share this story, so...

 

Back in November, this girl who I've been friends with for a few years promised me VIP tickets to Rock the Bells at Governor's Island. Evidently her dad owns a fencing company and gets them for marketing purposes, so every year she goes. Anyway, since then she's been pumping it up to me, getting me excited. The lineup this year included Nas (performing all of Illmatic), Immortal Technique, Black Star, Slaughterhouse, Black Milk, various Wu-Tang sets, Lauryn Hill, Mobb Deep, and a bunch of others. Anyway, we had a bit of a falling-out a month ago, so I assumed I wasn't going and managed to accept it. Then, on Thursday, she texted me to remind me that we were going, and I got mad excited. She said her dad told her it was the 4th, but I swore that they said on the radio it was the 3rd, but I kinda assumed it was maybe a 2 day thing, or I heard it wrong. So, Saturday comes and we start talking over text about how we'll get there, and while I'm looking up various routes, I went to the main webpage for the concert and found out it WAS in fact the 3rd, with nothing for the 4th. By then it was already 3pm, and she had work 'till 7.

 

From what I hear, Nas killed it.

 

FML.
