Future office building, just saying.

Monsters U Technology

So if you go through these different articles, it's got so many cool things about the different things that Pixar did to create Monsters University and the short that goes along with it.

Pixar and their technology and their storytelling all just amaze me. Nothing is even close to what they do. End of story.

Geri's Game

Agh! Found a link to my fave Pixar short!

Christmas List?

I usually don't make these, but my mom needs one and some are tech related, so cool man.
I arranged them in a sort of price order to the best of my knowledge. 


1. A new sketchpad. 

I ran out of space in my other 3...whoops.

2. Ratatouille, Tangled, Alice in Wonderland (the original cartoon), or the Hunchback of Notre Dame on DVD 

I've been meaning to complete my collection, at least of the Pixar movies, and no matter how many times my dad says we do, we do not own Ratatouille.

3. Burning Hogwarts Sweatshirt

4. Alice in Wonderland sweatshirt

5. Slytherin sweatpants

House pride-and comfort! I'm sure they have them for cheaper somewhere, but like bro these are great.

6. A TARDIS onesie.

7. A new phone case (I love Kate Spade, but that's only if you're feeling particularly generous)

8. Walt Disney Imagineering: A Behind the Dreams Look at Making More Magic Real

Is this not the most beautiful book you've ever seen? Like, just looking at it I teared up.


9. White high top Converse


10. An Arduino kit!

Arduinos are my babies. I want to actually own one so maybe I can finally do all those projects I came up with.


11. A nice camera 

Definitely to share with the family. I've heard CanonT3I and Nikon 3200 are pretty good starter cameras.


So there is my Christmas list, however, I'd be happy with some tomato basil soup from La Madeleine and a nice hug.

Disney is great...nuff said.

Verizon, you're doing it wrong.

I mean this is the BORING option-I think it would be alot more fun to pay people to throw phones.

Cool Baby Arduino Kits

Look at these cool little Arduino kits! You can use them to build cute little touch screen watches and play Flappy Bird!
