Billy Mays says to wake the fuck up


Bahaha.

Billy Mays will be the next internet Chuck Norris.

Anyways... in the last two days I've been extremely busy. With homework, news articles, labs, health center visits, jam sessions, girlfriend, RO. Haven't gotten more than 8 hours of sleep total. I'm not complaining, I really am getting a lot of stuff done.

In spirit of the article I have to write by 7 PM today, I'm blogging. Oh, it snowed yesterday, is snowing today, and will snow for next couple of days. April you say? This is Buffalo. Snow days are a possibility everyday from September 30th to May 30th.

No joke.

Yesterday, after setting up my appointment for today, I went to the study lounge to hang out before I supposed meet up with my friend to play Street Fighter. Ended up reading, and then just napping. Was woken up by this girl banging away on the piano we have in there. Slightly annoying... until I started listening to what she was playing. It must have been like a musical score or something. Real catchy, nothing famous. I loved it.

Note to self: learn piano, play awesome music

Currently 11:20 AM, been up since 8:30 for a doctor's appointment to check out my blisters. Turns out it might be an allergic reaction to my wool gloves during my counter protest in March. Need to go back tomorrow for ointment cream and anti-inch pills.

Lab in a couple of hours, blog now, article after, play with chemicals, finish article, NAP. Then spend time with Roxanne until the sun comes up.

God, I miss her ._.

End blog.

Good night's sleep

After two nights of staying up until sunrise, I went to sleep EARLY last night. Slept through the night, and actually beat my alarm.

Got an email for another article for the magazine I'm writing for. 4000 characters about a pretty vague topic, I'll get started on it tonight. Along with going over my chemistry homework for review.

Instead of going to my 9 AM biology class, I went over to the athletic building and stood in line for, brace yourself... Bill Nye tickets. Bill Nye, THE science guy is coming to Buffalo to speak on the 22nd, and I have tickets.

On the way back, I grabbed a copy of Visions, for who I write for. They didn't email me last week for an article, meaning they didn't need me for that week. So I skimmed it, went to the sports section that I usually wrote and found the article was structured the same as my previous articles. Meaning the author was looking back at previous copies of the magazine to get inspiration.

Then I flipped to the end, where they usually have time killing puzzles like word searches, and sudoku. Normally, I'm terrible at sudoku. Tried them in 11th grade, chemistry class. Lost interest, never finished anything above a 2 star.

I sat down with my breakfast and just... never did so much before. Killed a couple hours, went to history class at noon, went into the cafe after and finished it.

It was then I realized, I like puzzles. I can solve Rubik's cubes in under a minute, now can do sudoku and frequently play tetris and Lumines on my PSP on the bus (and in class...).
