The exam was on chemistry, so the most difficult stuff was probably balancing net ionic equations and stuff like that. (I'm only in Chem 1)

Probably, unless you allow 1 hour breaks. I mean, use a work and reward system. In my above post I mentioned the Torodomo technique - I'm studying now and that's exactly how I'm approaching it. Currently, this is my 'long' break. I'm sure she won't mind you playing games for an hour every so often if you construct your studying sensibly.

A 4 second video. But now my face hurts from laughing.

EDIT: Another video I highly recommend seeing, for an entirely opposite reason: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSgiXGELjbc

This song is so freaking amazing.

Buying the album. I love the indie playlists.

It fits so well into what i said about the beach.

edity:

I always wondered, whats your views on ripping screen grabs of films?

Im tempted to grab a few of avatar, mainly for the landscapes, focused on the nightscape whillow trees. I cant exactly bring a 15ft canvas, nevermind a sketchbook with me to the cinema if i go to watch it for a 3rd time. So is it okay? or is it still deemed 'pirating'

You could talk about the pointlessness of random internet threads in which each poster posts random junk that has nothing within it related to any subject matter whatsoeve--

Squirrel.

Dude. I was just going to post about squirrels because I saw one on my way to the cafeteria just now

Anyway.


College squirrels are great. They're so fat and fluffy and not afraid of people.

I also have to start outlining a speech this weekend. Spooky.
Except mine has to be a personal narrative about an event in my life, and I don't know what I'm going to talk about.

XD real rover Journey, apparently it's going to go into hibernation, and then, if it survives, going to be used as a stationary research station. It's stuck in the dirt, and I think I read that four of it's wheels aren't working.

Hmm. I can't think of any event that's happened to me in enough detail to give a 3-4 minute speech about it. Hey stalker person, know any good ones? Hmm.

When did you start programming?, how did you get into it?. What is significant about it?. Can you get away with macking some stuff up about it?.

Also to anybody who sucks at 3d modeling and likes to make rpg's. WoW is a gold mine of stuff!. Download the model viewer and you can visually design a charecter with any iteam which is in the game, export with texture and animation ect into a .OBj file!.

[b][/b]

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Except for my son Billy's pet mouse named Chris.
I'm not really sure where I'm going with this.

Anyways
my wife in her kerchief and I in my cap,
Were asleep after a long day of Christmassy crap.
When then, from the chimney, there arose quite a clamour,
"There's someone in the house" my frightened wife stammered.
I reached for the bedside, grabbed my handgun and said,
"This trespasser's getting a butt full of lead"

I wonder. Is it still called homework if I don't go home to do it? I suppose a dorm room is sort of home since I live here an' all that.
