Satellite transmits my voice

Very eventful indeed. Let me recap.

I still haven't started on my sociology project. I haven't started on my terms for PoliSci either. I think I'll have a lot to do tomorrow. I don't know if I'll go in for the work shift - I don't need to make any hours up, so I might not.

Loyalty night was last night. We got to find out who our big sisters in the sorority are. selan, I still don't think you used enough string.
For the rest of you, yes, she is my big sister. We totally need to get family letters now.

Initiation is tonight. I have no idea what we're doing, but I'm wearing pants. I'd prefer not to face the unknown in a skirt, thanks. ^^;

...gee, I know these days were eventful. Maybe my memory just sucks. ^^;

And once again it's time for the Mandatory Stupid Test! Today's examinees are rabid PS3 enthusiasts.

Fail, fail, and more fail. SO MUCH FAIL. The only passing grade today was given to the Best Buy in Boston, for having the right idea and acting on it. All the rest of you...well, shame on the lawbreakers, and I really wish people out there wouldn't wait in lines forever for these kinds of things. Oh well - to each his own, I suppose.

I was too busy going to Ralph's with my big sis last night to worry about any of that kind of stuff. :D

Stop Sign Kid.
Oh, my holy jeez, this kid is either the coolest thing I've ever seen or (to quote Seifer) a total lamer. Who else gets pwned by a stop sign?

No, the incident with my car didn't count. It was the stop sign that got pwned there.

Needless to say, this kid fails the Mandatory Stupid Test.

In other news, I saw Napoleon Dynamite for the first time today. Really, I don't think I missed anything by not seeing it before now. (I don't think I would've missed anything if I'd never seen it.) Just not that great of a movie.

That makes three movies today: V for Vendetta, Napoleon Dynamite, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Hooray for movies!

And classes start tomorrow. Political Science, Religion, and Intro to Psych all in the same day. Not to mention that tomorrow's Intro to Sociology is an 8 a.m. class. The bright side? No classes whatsoever on Wednesday! A whole free day to work on my Demyx costume...that is, if I ever get the materials...not having a car around here is such a pain.

Anyway. Please enjoy the video. All eleven seconds of it. ^^

So yesterday was my rant about explaining "promiscuous" to my little brother and the news' opinion on the influence of pop music. Today's is about another news article dealing with local speed traps.

In my city, there's a debate going on about whether or not the city government's website should post the locations of speed traps around town. The argument is, if these traps are being used to promote public safety (as opposed to promoting revenue for the city, I guess), then people should know where they are so they can slow down.

Here's what I have to say.

They call 'em "speed traps" for a reason: to trap the people who are speeding. (Um, duh.) If the speeders know where the traps are, they can slow down for the traps and go right back to speeding once they've passed them.

Here's a novel concept: DON'T SPEED. That way, you keep the general public safe and you don't have to worry about speed traps, because they won't affect you! Wow!

What saddens and scares me is that people just don't seem to understand this.

This, folks, is why we have the Darwin Awards. >>
(Needless to say, these people fail the test.)

I suppose I should put something journal-y now, since this is a journal...
The moon is orange tonight. Harvest moon...it's really pretty cool.
I finally got iTunes to make an audio CD from AMVs, so that rocks.
I'm leaving in 13 days.
I saw a fourteen-year-old dressed as a Pikachu riding scooters with his friend on my street the other day. I found that pretty awesome, that he didn't care what other people thought. He smiled and waved as I drove by, and I waved back.
I have no idea who on Earth he was. ^^
