Crazy Thought?

Drinks + Lab Reports = Productivity

I don't know what's wrong with this equation, but it seems to be work for me (at least right now, Physical Chemistry probably just needed a little something to be interesting).

Songs I Can't Not Listen To

Why do I even like this song?



You know what, I have no good answer for that. But I can tell you two things: 1) I had no idea that the guy singing this was white and 2) I can always listen to this song for whatever reason.

Internet Savior

I'm sure everyone knows about Wikipedia. Simply put, it knows all. But the worst part about it, some entries are too complicated to understand.

Enter Simple Wikipedia. Much easier to understand and much, much shorter. Sign me up (Also because I have a new source for material that doesn't reek of plagiarism)

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

What's been going on in my life?
School-wise, senioritis is all that has happened. And I for one would like to say that it is severely underrated, especially since its coupled with not having many classes (Read: Awesome).

Outside of that though, a bunch of things, but only one I really want to mention. And what could possibly be worth this one shout out? None other than winning a charity soccer tournament. While the benefits go to a good cause (good by me), winners got a $100 prize (fa shooooooooo). This meant that I get twelve fitty (the only downfall of an 8 man team) for just playing a couple games of soccer. Its almost the easiest money I have ever made.

Kool Aid

Something was/is wrong with me for this comic. But know I kinda want some Kool Aid...

My Current School Mascot

First and foremost, I have tried to defend my school mascot for a while now (mainly comparing him to Drexel's shitty dragon), but now, I'm gotta it out. A science devil???? Who thought of changing our mascot to a science devil? It's kinda cool on an ironic level, but it does nothing to inspire fear into your opponents (unless you know, they don't like science).
















And just because someone could, we made a variant of our shirtless non-champ to rep intramurals.















It's a little better, but not by much.

So final thoughts:
Good Things About Drake:
1. He's a devil. Devils make pretty good mascots.
2. He's funny on an ironic level. (Yet nowhere near as funny as Dartmouth's unofficial mascot Keggy)

Bad Things About Drake:
1. Way too happy for a devil
2. Way too much chest shown for a happy mascot.
3. The lab coat and goggles do not intimidate the CACC (which due to my immature mind, I find to be a funny conference name).

Sigh, new school mascot, please be better.

Songs I Can't Not Listen To

A little background on this brand new little section of mine (that I get to slap a new, special label on).


















I listen to this guy a lot during the day. Now, since I rarely know what I want to listen to, I usually turn this bad boy on shuffle and see what pops up. Though while this sometimes gives me a great song, usually I'm pressing the next button. Now couple in how I'm feeling that day, and the next button is getting worn out a lot. This brings me to my new label.

There are always those songs that whenever and wherever they pop up in my shuffle (or just in life), I have to listen to. These posts are going to be those songs; the songs that I have to listen to and will consequently always make me feel good.

So on to the first song by one of my favorite bands, Metallica. The song is One, but instead of putting the usual studio version (which is still badass), I'm putting up a live version performed with the San Francisco Symphony. Enjoy!

Michale Franti And Spearhead - Everybody Ona Move

Heard this song in a PS3 commercial. Reminds me a little bit of Paul Oakenfold, but either way, I can't help but feel good when I listen to it.

NFL Scouting Combine

So I'm just sitting here and I have my TV on the NFL Network with the Scouting Combine on. Two reasons for this:
1. I love football. Go Dolphins
2. I need background noise since my roommates don't wake up until at least 2 PM.

But what keeps drawing me back to watching it has to be the way they describe the players on the bottom of the screen. They vary from incomprehensible to random facts about the player. Below is a sample of my top 5 I've seen today.

-Jekyll or Hyde: I get what it's supposed to mean, but I honestly have no idea who's the better player between Jekyll and Hyde (answer: neither).
-Coaches Son: "Awesome, so now I know why this kid always gets more playing time than me..."
-15 lbs 14 oz at Birth: Does this make you a good football player? Apparently the NFL Network thinks yes.
-Needs More Sand in Pants: Usually sand in your pants is a bad thing, but now I need more??? Crap, this sucks.
-Tough Guy in Phone Booth: My absolute favorite one I've seen. Hate to see the guy who found this out.

Sigh, come back to me NFL season. I miss thee.

Mime Time

I don't know why, but mimes are just funny to me.






*BONUS COMIC* (Loosely defined use of word comic, but hey, its making fun of some roommates)






It's funny because its true.

Eastbound & Down

Caught this show on HBO the other day (as one-third of my favorite comedy trio, Human Giant, told me to). I was more than impressed. Hilarious, self-absorbed comedy at its finest. So good. Oh, and Will Ferrell is an executive producer and guest stars on the show...

Clip of the first 4 minutes of the first episode.

Thor, God of Thunder

Thor is a Norse badass. And he doesn't care about your Papa.

Vegan Fantasies

All the background that's needed:
1. Mikey is my roommate.
2. Mikey is vegan.
3. Mikey is a thrift store aficionado and likes really, really cheap things.
4. World Cultures was super boring.
5. Because of #4, I figured out what Mikey's fantasies would be.

The Result:

Flight of the Conchords- Too Many Dicks

I'm a way too entertained by this song. I blame the infectious beat. It gets me every time.

The Ocean Walker (Part Deux)

If you don't get it....

My $25K a Year Hobby

Now, I think it goes without saying that many people get bored in class. In my case, boredom usually leads to me drawing comics. And now that I have a blog (and found out Deval has a scanner...), I have somewhere where I can post my crappily drawn comics that keep me more than entertained and provide an outlet for the crazy thoughts that go through my head.
*Note 1* Clicking the picture will enhance it making it more readable and ten times more sloppy.
*Note 2* I need to learn how to draw better...

Next - Too Close

My Baby

She's just so sexy.

The Ocean Walker

Who are these people and why are they on my blog? Well, I frankly don't care about the first question too much, but I can answer the second one really easy. How about them taking these pictures when they weren't in the same room, but also separated by the friggin' Atlantic Ocean.

In case you don't want to read the link, let me summarize it for you.
Girl goes on Flickr. Girl meets guy on Flickr. Love blossoms between guy and girl. Guy and girl realize an ocean separates them. Guy and girl take pictures and manipulate them to make it seem as if they're sharing moments together. Girl walks over ocean to unite with her true love.

That last part might be open for debate, but its my summary. Either way, I don't know if this story will melt my face off because its so gosh dern cute or make me want to throw up my breakfast.

I have a blog? wtf

Who knows why I'm starting this? I'd like to say I really don't know, but I have a sinking suspicion it has something to do with this.

Honestly though, I have no idea who's gonna read this...and I probably won't care (you know, until it comes back to bite me in the ass later on). But who knows what I'm gonna throw up on this. My guess is as good as yours, but knowing me, I'd expect some extremely random things that will probably even make me question what goes on in my head.
