For one college student, the stories of an inhumanly tall supernatural being couldn't be farther from reality. But, as the school year transcribes, Jamie is hearing all sorts of strange tales about a paranormal entity that takes the virginity of young women. That's all spook stories to scare girls into having sex, or is it? The truth of a tall, slender man may be more real than she's ready for.
So. I never thought I'd be into a bona fide first person shooter because Call of Duty made me feel like all of them were of its ilk: annoying luckfests where the strong live longer and kill more.
Then Brink came along, and I was interested in it at first because of the parkour stuff, but later on I figured out that I liked the rest of the experience too; only problem was, I started playing it after everyone already moved on, so I kind of threw in the towel on FPSes.
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."

Signed up for Spring classes. So many 300 level classes. Not too happy with the amount of afternoon classes I have. But at least I have no labs.
Registration buddies!
I always have labs, being a bio major and all, but I've only ever taken two lab classes at a time. More than that would not be to my liking. I should know, I stay a little late into the afternoon three or four times a week this semester.
1) Not felt. Smoke still rises vertically. In sensitive individuals, déjà vu, mild amnesia. Sea like a mirror.
2) Detected by persons at rest or favourably placed, i.e. in upper floors, hammocks, cathedrals, etc. Leaves rustle.
3) Light sleepers wake. Glasses chink. Hairpins, paperclips display slight magnetic properties. Irritability. Vibration like passing of light trucks.
4) Small bells ring. Small increase in surface tension and viscosity of certain liquids. Domestic violence. Furniture overturned.
5) Heavy sleepers wake. Pendulum clocks stop. Public demonstrations. Large flags fly. Vibration like passing of heavy trucks.
6) Large bells ring. Bookburning. Aurora visible in daylight hours. Unprovoked assaults on strangers. Glassware broken. Loose tiles fly from roof.
7) Weak chimneys broken off at roofline. Waves on small ponds, water turbid with mud. Unprovoked assaults on neighbours. Large static charges built up on windows, mirrors, television screens.
8) Perceptible increase in weight of stationary objects: books, cups, pens heavy to lift. Fall of stucco and some masonry. Systematic rape of women and young girls. Sand craters. Cracks in wet ground.
9) Small trees uprooted. Bathwater drains in reverse vortex. Wholesale slaughter of religious and ethnic minorities. Conspicuous cracks in ground. Damage to reservoirs and underground pipelines.
10) Large trees uprooted. Measurable tide in puddles, teacups, etc. Torture and rape of small children. Irreparable damage to foundations. Rails bend. Sand shifts horizontally on beaches.
11) Standing impossible. Widespread self-mutilation. Corposant visible on pylons, lampposts, metal railings. Waves seen on ground surface. Most bridges destroyed.
12) Damage total. Movement of hour hand perceptible. Large rock masses displaced. Sea white.
Gator: Ha...yeah, there a reason on not going into medicine anymore. Well, okay, a few =P But I don't think I could handle the amount of chem/bio classes with labs that are required. But, I work in a chem lab, so that counts right? =P
Speaking of which, really hope I keep this job in the spring. It's not perfect, but it's better than my last one, pays good and I don't want to go through last year again.

Leaving for work.
See y'all in about four or five hours.
Next we're gonna hear that CA don't like road signs no more
