What's up?
Guess what I’m doing right now? Studying for the four tests I have tomorrow. And why are they all tomorrow? Because Friday is Evan Lysacek Day and all the periods are shortened to accommodate his visit (remember he went to the same school I’m at right now) and right after that is Spring Break!
Edit: Actually I’m doing a shitty job of studying since me typing this right now is...

Academic degrees was one thing I had never bothered figuring out. I took a peek at Wikipedia today and realized it’s not that confusing. So for my future reference:
Associate (2 years) > Bachelor (4 years) > Master (2 years) > Doctorate (??? years)
Correct me if there’s something wrong.

Palm failing
Palm’s quarterly sales report came out today. They’re bad. Here’s a bite: “The few Wall Street analysts who’ve stuck with Palm through the last six months are starting to bail, and the last remaining holdouts are literally banking on a buyer to save the day.” Aren’t I dumb to have bought 200 shares of Palm just two weeks ago? Good thing they’re mock...

Since the weather was nice, I opened both windows of my room for a full ventilation. And it smelled like nice, fresh air. But when I compared the air in the hallway and the air in my room, my room smells like a sweaty locker room. Not sure why.. (and it’s not me).

This would be a good story for another 2012 film →
Say, a small chunk of Earth’s crust sank into the ground, into the mantle, somehow. There’s then a big hole between the other tectonic plates. They float around infinitely, keep crashing into each other and chipping off the edges. And then the Earth is just a big ball of lava. Oh my.

Friday was my lucky day
I was scurrying to do a final revision of an English paper on The Scarlet Letter at lunch, right before it was due. But when the period was over I realized I’d forgotten to do a Works Cited page. I printed the paper anyway, grabbed the stack from the printer, and dashed for class. So when it came time to turn it in, I was absolutely stunned to see that there was a Works Cited page. I guess...
