A random assortment of my daily activities and ponderings. Maybe it will be boring, maybe it will be mind-blowingly exhiliarting. It is a grand experiment in exploring the brilliance of this thing those crazy kids are calling the "World Wide Web".

Life

And then I realized, you know what? It's all going to be okay. Be nice. Do good. Have fun. And maybe have a milkshake now and again!

Dolly: Sheep or Country Star? BOTH!

Aw Dolly Parton... are we all really just islands in the stream? That's IT?! I might have to get Kenny Rogers' opinion on that...

That's right....Lawson Strikes Again

Well I guess I'll get what are probably the last of my Dr. Lawson quotes posted. Shinkman's back....shuddddddddder, so he'll probably lecture for the last week and a half. Anyway, here you go!

"The cry....the cry of the wolf!"

"Aw man, Latin dancing....condoms..."

"The next thing I know, the tiger pees in my eyes!"

"And that's how the tiger did it"

"I'm a psychologist by default, I sucked at everything else."


And Giosue's quote of the day:

"I mean, I'm all for saving nature"

Sigh....I guess you'll have to live with that rather pathetic collection for now...

Fear- consider it conquered

I finally conquered my fear. I am meeting 1 on 1 with my biology teacher- eek! He is so TALL. No laughing allowed, I am so intimidated by this man. But alas, I have set up an appointment with him for the sole purpose of trying to understand the more-scientific-than-it-sounds concept of DNA slippage. 1 irrational fear down, approximately 3 to go (drowning, hand injuries, and styrofoam). The no laughing rule still applies here- you're all just as big of freaks as I am, admit it!!

Lawson Quote-mania

Sheesh, you guys gotta keep on me about these Dr. Lawson quotes. I write them all over the place and then forget to post them!! Here are the newest....

"If it's nice outside, no one comes to class. But, I mean, don't forget skin cancer!"

"If you're doing it-- it's like, do it"

"Vicissitudes of life"

"If all women were lesbians, there'd be a lot less depression...among women"

"I was going to write a book once, called The Voluptuary. Because I love flowers"

"I like papayas, mangos, honeydew melons....I mean, are you seeing the metaphors here?"

"Males like flesh"

"At first they told me that I shouldn't party with the undergraduate students. Then they told me I shouldn't go to Player's with students. Then they told me that I really shouldn't attend the frat parties. Which, you know, I'm not really a frat guy, but they throw some good parties!"

In response to anonymous questions in class...
"What's your favorite position? Well...I assume you're talking about yoga"

"Man! Another one about Paul Shinkman's sweater....ha ha ha, and another!"

"Where does your mind go when you talk to turtles? Hmmm...I don't know"

"I have felt attracted to other males since I was young, what could that mean? Well, that could mean you're a homosexual"

"Do you smoke marijuana? Ha ha ha, oh....."

In conclusion, he's a whack job. But we love him anyway. Kind of.

One of my finer moments....

Today. Chemisty. Me. Asleep. Class ends. Me. Still asleep. Other class. Comes in. Me. STILL asleep. Me. Embarrassed.

Relay For Life

We have completed our lives in relay!! 24 hours was a looooong time, but I had a lot of fun anyway! I mean, come on, you can't go wrong with PJ the DJ and his name-unknown (but we will call him Gaptooth) DJ buddy. Because I LOVE blaring hip-hop at 6am! My legs may be sore, and my face may be sunburned beyond recognition, but Team Scrumptulescent Relayers rocks my world! We do it all for the cancer people...

National Champs

Oh yeah, so in case any of you missed it- uh, we're the National Champs!! Never have I seen so much craziness on one night...
