I’m not sure if this is a reputable news source but i’ve been hearing it on radio talk shows so i’m going to assume its true
Harsh Reality
As a young lad I really loved watching the tv show Weird Science. Now, thanks to Hulu, i’m reuinted with what I felt at the time was an underappreciated show that didn’t recieve the attention it deserved. As i’m rewatching old episodes, I’m now realizing why the show got cancelled - it was a show about 2 high school nerds who obsessed over picking up girls. And...
Like Michael Jackson at Discovery Zone
hulu has the tv show weird science. if they also had duckman, my plans every saturday night would be get on the internet machine and watch weird science at 9:30 and then duckman at 10:00.
Ordeal.
I am requesting the Andrea tell the story of our trip to the Chiefs game yesterday because its really more her story than anyone elses, I was just along for the ride. It was an ordeal.
Anti-Climactic
After my final in my building mechanical systems class, I had a 79.2% in the class. After seeing that grade I e mailed the professor to which I got no response, so basically I spent the rest of the night, even while I was out at the bars, trying to build my case to bring before her this morning. So when I woke up this morning, I spent probably 30 minutes just sitting there going over what I...
I felt a little irresponsible going to the bars last night despite the fact that I have a final today. But then I saw 3 people from that class who were also out at the bars, and I didn’t feel bad anymore. The difficulty of the final is inversely proportional to the amount of people getting drunk the night before.
Christmas List
I need to watch “The Big Lebowski” ad nauseam until I have it memorized. It has so many good lines that i look forward to peppering into my every day conversation out of context but still relevant and thus comical. I’ve also been making a list of things I want to do over break and telling them to Andrea, because by me saying “I want to do this” it means “I want...
A Memoir: Ice Storms and Their Effect on Finals...
I’ve had power in my apartment for the last 20 minutes. I’m not sure how long it will last, and its marginally sad that I’m spending what few minutes of internet connectivity I have tumblring. Anyway, here’s some thoughts about ice storms: Its really hard to study by candle light. When traffic lights go out, the intersection is to be treated as a 4 way stop. Its...
Dinner Experiment
I was feeling creative and decided to make chicken pizza from scratch. I’ve never made pizza dough before, but i thought for my first time it was pretty good. I’d also like to note that i followed no recipes whatsoever. My only regret is that i used a little too much olive oil, and since i accidentally made enough dough for 2 pizzas, i regret not using alfredo as the sauce on the...
Spreading Cheer
I’m going to go to the hallmark store and buy 2 cards: 1 congratulatory and 1 sympathetic. I’m going to mail them to these twin brothers i went to elementary school with. The congratulatory card will say: “Brandon, congratulations on eating all those oranges that day at lunch in first grade.” The sympathy card will say “Brent, I’m sorry you dated Kayla...
I thought i’d be compromising with ali by telling her to buy 1% milk. I like 2%, she likes skim, i figured it was a fair trade. wrong. I can’t tell the difference between 1% and skim, i can barely tell the difference between 1% and cloudy water. The entire experience makes me want to drink melted ice cream from now on.
I Hate This
I hate it when I’m driving somewhere and I get behind a car and we keep making the same turns. I always like the feeling of “see, i wasn’t following you, you’re just paranoid” when they continue to go straight and i take a left. But its the worst when you’ve been behind someone for 10 minutes and you both end up going to the same place, and not some big...
Local Asians
For some reason on the campus of Kansas State University, there is a phenomenon of asian women running to get somewhere. I label it a phenomenon for the following reasons: Its almost exclusively asian women. On maybe 2 other occassions this entire semester I’ve seen a person of a different race running on campus but in my most realistic and accurate estimation I’d say I see an asian...
Homeless Observations
Yesterday I saw a homeless man going through my apartment complex’s dumpster rummaging for aluminum cans. I didn’t gawk long because I wasn’t sure if he was desperate enough to be a threat to my safety, plus I also had just gotten Arby’s and I didn’t want him asking me for food or change. I’m glad I’ve gotten into a habit or locking my door when I leave....
