Senior Thesis

Yep that's right senior thesis time.. Well actually it's been thesis time for awhile now, but its only today that I've really been writing seriously as well as later on tonight. Who knew such a straight forward and simple question such as "are vaccines safe" could morph into the hideously complex beast of a paper that I am currently in the process of writing.

Phew.

But yes, generally when I have been posting it has been while in-class during the time I'm supposed to be writing... Don't get me wrong, I'm working very hard on it. It is just part of my personality to need to take mental breaks from time to time. Besides I've already been writing today for about four hours. Anyway I suppose I will elaborate further upon this topic in a later post.

Random Album Creation

My Friend Aron's idea...
Directions: (if you're bored:)

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

Twilight Spoof

Probably one of the funniest spoofs I've ever seen. Enjoy :)

An In-Class Thought Progression

I Always Do This

I'm not sure just how many blogs I have had over the past couple years, but I have the inkling it is more than three. Does that mean I'll actually stick to this one? Probably not. But hey it's something to do when I've run out of youtube videos to watch and people to shoot online. You may wonder what games I play but I gurrantee you that my skills are merely average :-) Though for the sake of "transparency" as the new president has so advocated, I am currently playing CrossFire by subagames. It's a free little FPS with (in my opinion) a decent layout, gameplay, and file size. It's mindless, though not quite as mindless as AssaultCube (another free FPS that goes round after round after round). Seeing as my brother stole our copy of Halo 3 and whisked it off to college, it will do. Free sounds a lot better to me than shelling out $40-50 on another copy. Besides, I can play it on the PC and still pretend I'm doing homework... schwinggg. Honestly, I just play FPS because I find a couple headshots and knives to the back are great stress relievers.
