I swear the days I sleep 5-6 hours the night before I am much more awake than the days I sleep 8-10 hours the night before.
Apparently it's all about the cycles and not so much about the length you sleep. There are certain times that are better to go to sleep or whatever because of the way the brain works. I haven't gotten good at this yet....as I let too many distractions and other things interrupt me but there are ways that make it so you feel refreshed in less time just because of how our sleep cycles work.

Modern sleep habits in the US came with industrialization into corporate american work shifts. Sleeping used to be a pattern of "naps" throughout the day (folks typically ate dinner later as well with a meal in between that and lunch) and it wasnt uncommon for people to get up in the middle of the night (old guy sitting by the fire with a pipe comes to mind) and than get a few more hours before the work day started. Anything past 9 hours its a struggle just to get out of bed for me. Usually sleep 1:30am to 9:00am go to work 10-8pm.
The pro-choice people are set-up in the busiest part of campus today with giant pictures of aborted fetuses. I'm used to them coming about once a year, but what annoys me most is that they have people with cameras set off to the side just waiting for somebody to lash out so they can have evidence to sue them. It's absolutely disgusting that they are playing with such a sensitive topic in hopes of getting a lawsuit. Girls have started to stand around them with giant sheets to block people from seeing the extremely graphic pictures. Another exciting day at UGA.
Ugh. I hate these groups. I went to the giant fireworks display for 4th of July here in Columbus (red white & boom for those from here) this past summer and they were set up all over the place. One group with the largest photos were set up right across from the main drag of food trucks & right under all the trees of the only shade in the area. So all these people were eating in the shade and had to deal with these graphic photos & people screaming about murder. Very family friendly.
The camera aspect is bizarre. I've never seen that. Good on those girls covering them with sheets. Non confrontational rebuttal is always best.

Those are NOT the pro choice people. Those are the pro birth and fuck em once they're born people.

There were pro-life people protesting a while ago at a mall near me. Instead of using the graphic images, they were using adoption to promote their belief. I'm adopted and it offended me greatly. Because, you know, the decision my biological mother made to carry me for 9 months and then give me up was just SO easy, I'm sure.
I know there isn't assigned seating in college but if I've been sitting in the same seat for a month that seat is mine!
I don't know why but that really bothers me haha
Omg. I had this happen the other day in one of my classes!!!! I don't understand why after a month & a half someone takes it upon themselves to switch seats!! Drives me nuts!
I'm that guy. It's nice to get a new perspective sometimes.

It makes me feel displaced. Stop doing it. Especially when I show up late and am all kinds panicked bc I have to find a new seat.
When I was in college (if it was a good professor) it was a free-for-all for the seats closest to the front. Some people would arrive like 10-15 early to secure a good seat.
I made the mistake of sitting in someone's seat one time for a test. Guy almost dumped me out of the seat. Told me it was his lucky seat. He would do better on the test in that seat.
I would always wear my ipod and listen to music while taking a test in grad school to zone out all the extraneous noises. One day during the middle of a test my friend next to me poked me and I looked up to see the whole class, including the instructor, looking at me and chuckling. Unbeknownst to me, I was starting to sing along to the Talking Heads that was playing...that day ended my habit of listening to music while testing. Nowadays instructors are so uptight about people cheating that I doubt the practice would be allowed anyway. Students aren't allowed to even bring water bottles into a test.

About a month ago I gave my grandparents a copy of OCMS by Old Crow Medicine Show. Today I gave 'em a visit and my grandpa told me he really likes the album. Just another reason I'm the superior grandchild.
while buried in research/writing for the aforementioned e-portfolio (aka: the devil), I discovered this tidbit: an early treatment for smallpox included administering "twelve bottles of small beer every twenty-four hours"
