Always the bridesmaid, never the groom
Alright, so here’s a little rundown. Apparently nobody uses this anymore, but wtf, i’m gonna type my little heart out. fuck ‘em ya know. anyway the last couple weeks have been impossibly stressful. I spend all of my time so tired i can barely stay awake, yet every single night I lay in bed til at least 3 or 4 and then get a couple hours of sleep. It’s fun. I got...

Life is good (no seriously)
I’m in a great mood. I got my financial situation straightened out. I filled out all my paperwork for Ameritas and now I just wait until I start my internship. Gallup is going alright. Now all I have to do is get through the next 3 weeks, do well on finals, and hopefully pass MLC, and it will be easy ridin from there.

It’s people! Soylent Green is made out of people!
So I think I’m gonna make a return to blogging. I’ve come to the realization that for me to have any desire to blog I either have to be really happy or really unhappy with the way my life is going. I’ve been pretty content lately, so I haven’t had much to say. Luckily I’m getting pretty self-pitying lately. I’ve got a lot of shit I want to whine about and...
…so apparently fdr does have a memorial. anyway, whatever, the point is the same. There is, however, a monument to the women who served in Vietnam. The other monuments and memorials are Washington, Lincoln, George Mason, Jefferson, Roosevelt (both), and memorials to various wars and the like. I still don’t think there are any individual women who have done anything near what any of...
Perhaps the lamest spring break of all time. March Madness is extra mad this year, and probably the usual amount of marchy. I did absolutely nothing this week. Although it was nice to not be at my house, which it always is. I spent the last two nights in York doing nothing and I’m ok with that. I’m making some cash so maybe I can pay my rent…maybe…working for Mike is...

It’s been awhile eh? I’ve been kind of busy, but mostly I just haven’t had much to say. I’m feelin like i’m a little bit in need of a good blogging to dump some shit on nobody in particular. So in the next couple of days I’ll be back.
oooh the suspense….

I’m on the edge of drunk. Tebow is a giant fag-douche-tool. He’s the most full of shit person I’ve ever seen. Anyway, whatever. I’m actually kind of tired of college football. I’ll miss it soon enough I’m sure. But it’s the Dookies for now.
On a much gayer note, I finished the first season of one tree hill. Let me say, everybody was much hotter...
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything. I’ve just kind of been laying low and relaxing since finals. The end of my semester was pretty exhausting. Anyway those finals I was staying up late studyin for mostly went well. Lifecon didn’t go all that great, but it was good enough.
Christmas was great. I got quite a bit of money, which mostly went to bills, but for the...

What it is ho. It’s 1:15 Tuesday night of finals week. I’ve got 473 at 7:30 Thursday morning, and then some online shit for mngt 331 that night. Then I’m done. Looks like tomorrow is a long day of studying some risk theory; aggregate loss models and whatnot. I’m pretty tired of studying, but it’s close to being over.
In other news, I’m sweet. I’m...
Just thought I’d fill you in on the rest of the trip. I won’t explain the whole day of interviews, but long story short it went pretty well. I felt like I pretty much said all the right things, and I feel pretty good about it. The dinner, which was at about 5 and making up for the night before, was incredible. It was some upscale seafood place and it was great. So I ended up back...
So the rest of this story is way better than the beginning. After being delayed 3 hours, I find out the flight is cancelled. So they tell me I can wait for a 640 flight, which still connected to Minneapolis so I wouldn’t have gotten here til 1130. They then tell me there is a 540 direct flight out of Omaha. Oh yeah, it was 430 a the time. So I said screw it, hauled major balls to Omaha,...
So I’ve been sitting here in the Lincoln airport for 3 hours now, and my flight still doesn’t leave for an hour and a half. That bitch got delayed 3 hours for maintanence, which I assume meant the wings fell or something. Hopefully they’ve got enough duct tape to take care of that problem. I got places to be. Luckily, the dudes I was gonna have dinner with tonight have been...
So this semester is winding down, and school is starting to wear on me again. I’m starting to give less and less of a shit. Luckily I don’t have anything til next friday and then I’ve got a few days of finals and I’m done. Then it’s Christmas. Unfortunately it’ll be right back to it after that. So today I started thinking of reasons to re-motivate myself.

WTF
So my thanksgiving post disappeared. Maybe thats for the best. I don’t know. I’m kind of just checking to see if it’s jacked up or if that was just something weird. Anyway Im sitting in the union waiting for class. sweet day.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
I just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I hope you all had a chance to spend some good quality time with family and just relax. I’m generally not into the cliche, once a year, forced lame holiday emotions. However, I honestly hope that you were able to really look at everything you have, regardless of whatever may be going on in your life, and just be thankful for the...
So I passed the P exam. I don’t know if anyone cares, but I just thought I’d let y’all know so there is a little validation for all that bitching I’ve been doing. I’m pretty damned excited. Too bad I still have a hard-ass LifeCon test in the morning that I’m nowhere near ready for. After that though, sleep for 2 or 3 days straight.
I’ve got the P exam tomorrow morning. I’ve been studying like a crazy man for the past month. I don’t feel completely prepared but I’m out of time and I need some sleep. I don’t like my chances of passing, but I’m hopeful. I’m much more comfortable with the rest of the exams…if I could only get past this first one. Shit. If I fail it will not...
So I was thinking, zombies are pretty sweet, that’s an obvious one. But, I started to wonder what would be cooler; being a zombie but still having brain function (basically just having a massive bloodlust and feeding it by killing and consuming brain tissue,) or being the only uninfected left, but with all the supplies (including ammo) I need to survive.
At first glance, the zombie side...
So I’ve been studying so much lately that I literally have a headache all day, every day. It can’t be healthy. Anyway I finished my actex manual today, if that means anything to anyone. I finished memorizing all the distributions and their means, variances, and MGFs too. So now I just do tons of problems. Hopefully I’m ready. It’ll be tough from now on tho. I have a...
So I got kicked out of the library tonight, a friday night, because they were closing. I’ve decided this is an all-time low for me. To make it worse, I’d been there since 10 am. I’m beginning to think SOA exams are the #1 cause of suicides. I almost hope so at this point. That will be easier than putting in this much work again and failing it for the second time. Fucking...
I would pay a pretty large sum of money to have Ryan Roemmich’s outlook on the world. That’s all I’ve got for now. I have a hard time coming up with anything positive to say anymore.
I missed the score by 2 skers TDs. I hadn’t accounted for the newly added Suhfense. All in all. Pretty good game.
On another front. I kind of want to get in a fight. Any takers let me know.

Words We Just Don't Use Enough
So this blog has gotten decidedly more serious than I ever intended it to I figured I’d make a top ten list of words we just don’t use as often as we should. I imagine several of these will be comical terms for genitalia (we once compiled lists of over 40 for male and nearly that many for female.) Most of the terms from those lists will be left off because they are either too dirty...
Denmark →
I thought I’d add a follow-up to my last blog. I found about 25 of these surveys, almost all ranking Denmark #1. Many of them contributed it to their status as a highly socialized country. They have the highest taxes in the world at over 70% and have almost every major necessity free. There is probably some serious truth to that. Yet still, I think it goes a long way beyond that. This...
So I’ve been thinking quite a bit lately about the concept of happiness, and what it really means. I’m not sure there can really be any concrete definition of the word, considering it means so many things to so many different people. Of course there are the things that immediately come to mind when you hear the word, like money, love, success, and so on. But it goes so far beyond...
Winter is back. I hate it. I froze my little niblets off walking between classes today. (I don’t know what niblets are, and it sounds a little self deprecating, but it sounds funny, so whatever.) I’m not so excited about the next few months. Winter is a rough time of year, at least for me. I hate being cold all the time. The days are grey and depressing while the sun is up, and...
whatever
I intend to write some things at some point. Unfortunately everything on my mind right now seems too deep and/or depressing and I just don’t have that kind of time to waste on a blog. I’ll get around to it again. For now I’m going to bed.
There are a lot of interesting things on my mind right now, but I’ll get to most of them later. Right now, I’m getting a little sick of all this election crap. What tard, at what point in time, gave every college douche the impression that I give a shit what candidate he or she plans to vote for? There seems to be a mass misconception in this country, especially among collegians,...

Nebraska vs Oklahoma
It’s finally here…almost. The Skers and the vaunted Bofense head down to Norman to take on the Sooners. They come into the game riding a 2 game winning streak, if you can call it that after beating Baylor and Iowa State. While the Bofense has looked improved, arguably, and the Joeffense is rolling along pretty nicely, not many have real high expectations of this game. OU is putting...
My weekend starts now
So I decided to skip my last class of the day, so I’m done and it’s officially my weekend. I think I’m gonna take a nap now, but then, whooee, shit’s gonna get exciting. Maybe not so much. I think I’m gonna study a little tonight and tomorrow. But tomorrow night I’m going to a couple of different halloween parties. Saturday should be a long day of football...
I want da gode. Give me da gode!
This is potentially the most comical thing I’ve ever seen. Apparently some interesting characters in Mobile, Alabama are convinced they found a leprechaun in a tree. I’m not going to say much more than that. Enjoy!
If you enjoyed this video, here are a couple more you might find comical.

Huh, apparently I am, in fact, retarded
I guess it’s cyanide and happiness. I’d always thought happiness was spelled wrong on purpose there. huh. I guess you learn something every day. Also, blow me, ryan.

Pretty funny comic from Cyanide and Happiness today. I love the comic and I check it out every day. There’s a good chance I post one of these pretty often. Enjoy.
All you need is love. I’d like to think...
“You’d be amazed by the crap that goes through my mind in a given day. I...”
Hmmm....
Apparently I’m a blogger now. I feel so hi-tech. Maybe I’ll be cool with the other kids now, with their mobile phones, and walkman tape players and whatnot. Seriously though, I’m pretty awesome. So we’ll see how this goes.
