Damn That Was A Quick Four Years

I used to think I would never go to college.  In high school I always tried to hide that I was smart, like it was an insult or something.  It was cool not to care.  I could not see the finish line.  I remember my Senior year, after I got hurt playing football I just had no reason to go to school anymore, so I stopped.  Since I had so much attendance built up from the season, I could basically stop going to school.  I picked up a job at UPS and stopped doing any school work.  I really didn't think I had a future in college.  I didn't believe that I was smart enough.  Working at UPS made me change my mind.  There was a man that I met there that helped me change my mind.  He showed me that my future was not in a factory.  I shouldn't give up so easily.  He had made the decision at a young age to work instead of going to college.  He regretted that decision everyday.  His influence and another life changing moment made me chose to go to college.  I realized that I was smart and knew that I just needed to put forth the effort.  It has been four years since then and I can barely recognize the person I am today.  I wish I could have gone back in time and talked some sense into myself.  I am happy where I am today.  Although I'm sad I'm graduating, I know it makes my parents proud.  In the end, it was not only about changing myself, but becoming the person that my parents wanted me to be.

4/20....A Holiday for High School Kids and Why You Should Drink in The Library

Let me start off by saying, if you are in college you either smoke weed pretty consistently or you don't.  4/20 is a holiday where you skip out on school and get high.  There is no need to do that in college.  Half the students are probably high and sometimes even the teachers.  This is not called a holiday, it is called real life.  I'm just impressed that a bunch of high people were organized enough to create this holiday.  That itself should break a few myths.  But honestly, there is really no reason to celebrate 4/20 like it is the best thing ever.  Maybe if they sold weed legally and they gave discounts, I would be down to celebrate.  Last time I checked, drug dealers don't give discounts and if they do, it still ain't free 99.  The real holiday should be a personal holiday.  Examples of this are, getting really high before class, drinking before a group presentation, or just being fucked up for a sober occassion.  While this is fun, I only advise doing this if you will probably do well in the class and if you are a decently smart person.  A stupid person getting high is a dangerous combination.  That's why for seniors you should drink in the library.  Does this reasoning make any sense?  Not really, but if you drunk in the library, about to graduate, and tired of doing work, then drinking in the library is for you!

Disclaimer: I am definitely not doing this right now....Definitely...

Pi Kapp Formal = Shitshow

I have to say I never thought I was going to set up a formal this good.  To be completely honest, it was mostly by luck and all last minute but it still was awesome.  The only problem was that I kinda fucked the under aged kids over but shit happens.  There is just nothing to do in a big city if you're underaged.  I'm sorry but you're beat.  Get older or go away.  Besides that shit was crazy.  I had us stay in a nice hotel called the Winston Convention Center.  It was pretty expensive but I also was able to set the dinner up there so it all worked out.  I forgot to mention that the formal was in Pittsburgh.  I really needed to get out of Morganhole...I mean town for a week.  It was a great week off.  Strangly, although I was not in Morgantown, I still saw Ton from Bent Wileys.  How can this small asian man be everywhere at once?  This is quite a question, with no good answers.  After the dinner we got in a taxi and went to club Diesel.  I think that is how you spell it but I was really drunk and happy to give the responsibilities of forming a late night to someone else.  I spent entirely to much money on bottle service and pretty sure I tore my shirt off in the club.  Besides a few assholes destroying their rooms everything went great.  Can't wait to graduate so I can come back for next years formal. haha

Favorite Viral Video

Being a internet video connoisseur, I have seen lots of different kinds and styles of videos.  While I truely do enjoy watching someone getting injured (especially the grape stomping lady), I love the viral videos that show amazing human feats.  I mean Seriously...how the fuck is this possible. Who can possible jump out of a pool?  I can barley get out of the pool.  Jumping out of a pool like that just amazes me.  This is the best type of viral video.  Something that you cannot believe could possibly happen.  That's why the internet is so great.  In my opinion, videos like these will increase, but so will the ability of companies to create them for advertising.  If there was a coke bottle in the shot, I duno if I would really believe that this was real.  But since I've seen the actual guy interviewed before and know that it is real, I am just more impressed.  This is something that I wish I could do, but no matter how hard I could work, I don't think I could ever do that.  This is what viral video is all about.  Catching rare, amazing moments. 

SGA aka My Magic Table Leg

Seriously....the student government at WVU is getting out of hand.  http://www.thedaonline.com/news/governor-says-cheng-assaulted-him-classless-1.2146326    Just read this article and you will not be able to stop laughing.  My only real problem with this whole article, since I support people getting beat by table legs, is the fact that if this was to happen to a regular student they would for sure be in trouble.  When this happens to a SGA member, they only thing that they ever face is an article in the newspaper.  Last semester, a member of SGA was caught hazing by the cops, ran, and was still found not guilty by the school.  What?  The school policy for normal students is so strict that this is normally an open and shut case, but somehow this SGA member was able to get off scott free.  Now you have the Governor and the Vice President fighting in the Mountainlair without anyone seeing anything.  HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY NOT NOTICE AN ASIAN MAN WEARING A GI (tradition karate uniform) CHASING THE GOVERNOR AROUND WITH A "TABLE LEG", YELLING AND SCREAMING, IN THE MOUNTAINLAIR.  There is no way no one saw that.  The mountainlair has been packed all week and your telling me this goes on and no one sees it.  By the way, I totally would of beat that kids ass who was supposedly printing shirts that said my girlfriend had chlamydia, but I digress.  I loved this story, but it pisses me off how the school just dismisses it and somehow no one knows anything.  Try being a regular student and denying something.  You'll still get in trouble.  While I love seeing crazy stuff like this go on, it just continues to point out the hypocrisy that constantly occurs at WVU.

Spring Break....thank you Pennsylvania for legalizing casinos

Reading facebook everyday during break was a constant reminder of how much fun people were having on vacation.  Even though I had the money to go on spring break this year, I decided not to.  Instead I went home to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania where I am from.  There was literally no one back in my hometown.  Being a Senior, all my friends are either in college and had a different break, have fun time jobs or families, or are in jail/drug users.  This gives me a very few select people to hang out with.  I usually just chill at my friends house but there is really nothing to do there.  That's when I start the Pennsylvania legislature for allowing casinos with table games.  I live five minutes of back roads away from Hollywood Casino. That was my spring break.  Drinking and gambling at the casino.  Great time to be at a casino during March Madness since the casino has its own sports bar.  Without the casino, I probably would of went crazy of boredom.  Next year I will be graduated and will no longer have spring break.  While I did not go anywhere special on break, I did save the money I needed to, to be able to live at Ocean City, Maryland this summer.  Now that's a break I'd pay for.

Why Relationships Suck

Why is there always that longing feeling to be in a relationship?  In WVU there is really no reason to even be in a relationship, but still I find myself in one.  I am not really sure why, but after two months I always begin to become unhappy.  Still I usually keep the mask going on for another three months before I either end it or basically force the girl to end it with me.  I hate breaking up with girls.  I'm not really that emotional so the end of a relationship just stings for a week.  Even after all this experience, when I'm single I feel as if I should be looking for the right girl, but Morganhole, I mean town, is so filled with skanks it's amazing.  The problem is, when you have a girlfriend it seems like every girl wants you, but once u have to start trying again, bitches scatter.  Relationships wouldn't be such a big deal if sex wasn't so fun to do.  Literally, what is better? So i guess I'll have to put up with this problem until I get married.  And then a few years later, hit up the divorce scene.  Haha I hope not, but who really knows.

Why I love March Madness

In March, the weather is starting in change.  In Morgantown, it pretty much rain everyday and stays around 50.  Sometimes it still snows and everyone is looking at their calenders, waiting for the summer.  The only thing that I enjoy in March is March Madness.  Despite the fact that my bracket all self destructs after the first round, at least there is something to enjoy on TV and a reason to watch sportscenter.  Of coarse, the best part of the madness is watching Pitt lose like 3 games ahead of when they are supposed to.  Even when you give them the easiest road to the final four, they still blow it.  And even though I always forget they suck at the tourney and stay fucking up my bracket, the best part is laughing at all Pitt fans, especially my brother and sister, as Pitt collapses.  Besides Pitt losing, what other reason is there in March to get hammered during the weekdays.  I would probably drink anyways in March, just because it's so depressing but now I can drink and feel good about myself.  God I love sports.

Cheese...the most delicious treat

With cheese, comes many different flavors of joy.  You know something is good when you can just eat it by itself, but the best part of cheese is how it goes with everything you want to eat.  French fries for example.  Good by themselves, but add cheese and bam.  The flavor never ends.  Cheezy bread, wine and cheese, are just examples of the power of cheese.  Without cheese everything is just bland.  How could you eat a sandwhich without cheese?  It is almost impossible.  And not must i forget grilled cheese.  The underground sleeper smash hit with any college student who hates to cook but loves to eat.  Behold the power of cheese.

There is only one certain fact about life. We all gotta die sometime.

The fact about life is that nobody knows for sure what happens after you die.  Do you go to heaven, hell, get reincarnated, or is this life the only chance you get.  No one knows, but many people will tell you they do.  They really don't know, but they believe they do.  This is pretty much what is wrong with most people, they take their beliefs as being unquestinably true.  At one point in time, people used to overwhelmingly believe that the Earth was flat.  Our history is filled with people doing at the time what they believed was right, but we now look at them as being crazy.  Like in Salem Witch trials, where girls were burned at the stake after being accused of being witches.  If this was to happen now, people would go fucking crazy.  But just over three hundred years ago, this really happened.  I only wish I could see what is gonig to be said in three hundred years about this generation.  Social norms and public opinon change everyday.  Why should I shape myself around beliefs and social norms that may no longer apply even ten years down the road?  It is important to be yourself and do what you want to do.  Except raping and murder people since that shit was only cool like a thousand years ago.  Who knows what the future brings.  Sometimes you have to live in the moment.  People will always criticize what you're going to do.  But unless they're putting money on your table then who really cares.  Everyone has opinions, just don't expect me to shape my life around anyone elses but my own.
