I love McGarvies. I told them when I would be back and I’m already working two doubles, and two big money shifts and then Memorial day.

My theory on why group projects don't work.
A group project is basically forcing a temporary relationship between two or more people. You have to start scheduling time for them and work together to complete whatever it is you’re working on. For a given amount of time, you basically integrate them into your life. The only problem with this is that there is no prerequesite of understanding, respect or mutual work habits and because...
Joke's on me I guess.
Now that I’m in college and tutoring “Calculus I”, I realize how little material they cover in it. I’m not saying they don’t cover enough. When I was in high school I took “Calc AB” (which was supposed to be a year long teaching of Calc I) instead of “Calc BC” (Which was I and II) partly because I was apprehensive about my math skill and partly...

Things I don't like.
For some reason my coffeemaker has been making my coffee smell/taste weird. That thing is such a piece of shit. It sounds like it’s going to implode every time I brew coffee. It might be time to invest in a new one.
It's awful
how integrated facebook is into our social lives now. I really, really want to get rid of mine since all they do now is whore out our personal information. But I feel like if I do, I’ll be out of the loop on a lot of things and not be able to keep in touch with some people. This is getting out of hand. EDIT: Seriously, look how many hoops they make us jump through to delete it now....

“If someone wants to be a part of your life, they’ll make an effort to be in it.”
unless they’re playing the “if they want to be a part of my life, they’ll make an effort” game too, in which case both parties are sitting at home waiting for text messages. sometimes everyone needs to make an effort.

Tutoring is nice and all but it doesn’t quite pay the bills. Besides, once I am back home, I’m gonna be wanting to do all kinds of cool shit. You guys should do cool shit with me. We’ll drink whiskey and go to outdoor events.
I’m gonna buy a laptop sometime this summer. My desktop is 4 years old, finally starting to have problems and I’m sick of not having a laptop....
Too. Many. Drugs.
Apparently Paramount is making Jackass 3D
I don’t get it either.

The first step will be deporting all the babies. Those little bastards can’t speak a word of it.
I feel like I'm in Limbo.
I’m not quite awake and I’m not really sleepy. I’m not really focused on anything, nor do I really have anything on my mind. I’m just kinda sitting here at four in the morning. Listening to music, trying to be productive before I need to maul my sleep patterns more, later in the week.

second pot of coffee, yet only 50/1000 words written. hmmm.
40 POTS OF COFFEE.
Okay.
The internet is starting to creep me out.
Not-so-secret confession.
I love the bar I work at, that I go back to every summer. I shouldn’t, but I really do. Bill always hooks me up. This post is pretty much directed at Meryl and some others and I’m sorry for that. Everyone should come drink in Annapolis this summer.

Chicago
Just booked my hotel for when I go to Chicago this summer. It’s a fifty minute walk from Union park. So excited. Not to mention there is a Taco Burrito King half way between. I might never leave.
The Protest Dog →

Apparently there is a dog in Greece who has shown up to all manner of protests in the last few years. Check out the photos… He always sides with the protest
This is really rad. I’m going to imagine the dog is some sort of old Greek God trying to do what little he still can to protect his people.
Pooch.

U.S. regulators will claim authority over companies offering Internet access in a setback for AT&T Inc. and Comcast Corp. and a win for Web content providers such as Google Inc., Amazon.com Inc. and EBay Inc.
