Beer (mixed drink) Pong
Katie Thompson and I just went 8 - 0 in Beer Pong.
I hit the last cup in 7 of 8 games in regulation, and in the only overtime, I also hit the last cup.
Nobody can beat us. And by nobody, I mean out of the combination of Robby and Lauren, Will and Alex, Alex and Robby, and Alex and Lauren. Alex and Lauren made it to overtime with Alex hitting two cups on his rebuttal, so they kind of put up a...

did you guys make any plans for parking that car? because… it’s supposed to be like… really busy there.
Sometimes...
Sometimes I have short spurts of interest that I burn out because I try to do it all at once.
Sometimes I have long-term passions that I let slip away because I convince myself they are unattainable or impossible.
Sometimes I do what the world tells me to do.
Sometimes I don’t even know what I really want because I’ve never done it.

ENGL 310: Writing about Literature
Requirement for English major
Took it because the teacher had a 4.0+ on the “Rate My Professor” easy scale (because I want to get a good GPA this semester with minimal effort)
Syllabus is ridiculously long and complicated, and this class appears to be much more difficult than I anticipated
ENGL 311: American Lit I
Ditto EVERYTHING from ENGL 310...

The main point of my initial argument is that there are bigger issues at hand when it comes to the separation of church and state (i.e. my comment on abstinence programs) than words in an oath, or on a piece of money.

If you need any proof that in 10 years Meizu will be the new Apple just look at where Toyota was 2 decades ago and where it stands today.
Japan’s largest automobile manufacturer is one example of how a company makes the leap from shoddy bottom feeder to industry standard in not even 25 years time.
