03:06 :: X

Last night, some of us hit up Metronome, a nice lounge on 21st and Broadway. There was a large, green glow surrounding the place as we drove up. And alas, we feasted our eyes on it: the Microsoft Xbox.

The Playstation 2 is such baby play.

Absolutely amazing graphics. A large controller with ample buttonage and well-placed triggers. And I was about to cry when I saw it:

Halo. It existed. It was not vaporware. Moreover, it looked like the most fun with a first person shooter on a console since Goldeneye. Good shit. Good shit, indeed.

03:52 :: Salsa?

For Beta Alpha Psi, I went to Common Ground Homeless Shelter located smack dab in Times Square tonight. Good location, eh?

Ended up dancing with old(er) homeless ladies for an hour or so. I must say, salsa dancing with these ladies (and some men!) has to be one of the most amazing things I've done in my life. I feel as if I'm one of those people who love to do "community service," but usually never get the time to. Or, rather, I feel a tinge of guilt when I realize I do these things with ulterior motives. But, at the same time, when I do do these, I feel so good.

Why so good? Well, there's nothing like making people smile. And it's even better when you realize that these people have had hard lives.

It's silly. As I write this, I feel very shallow. I don't want to say I do this. That's not the bottom line. The bottom line is, as it should be, the smiles on their faces and the glows in their hearts. Yah.
