Man...

I just had that itch in my itching nostril that had to be picked on. Gushing blood followed! I rush to the bathroom and I plug the nostril with some toilet paper. But it wasn't enough! The paper had been drowned in the blood so it was replaced with another. While doing so a stream of blood gushes down my face. I apply a damp piece of toilet recycled paper and wait...my nose bleed finally clotted. When the paper was taken out the blood clot on it was huge and slimy. I would have taken a picture but that would probably be too gross for anyone else to see. Unless you really want to see it...

Nightmares

Lately, I've noticed that my nightmares have evolved from when I was a kid. In the old and golden days, my nightmares were of monsters and clowns attempting to hurt me. Today, they are often about me going to school near the end of the semester, and I learn that there is a class that I have no attended the whole semester. And I finally show up to class to learn that there is a final. Then I'll wake up in a layer of sweat (actually, no, I was jk).

Also, I've noticed that Utahn drivers have become worse and more unsafe on the road. Now they'll dare to run straight through red lights. Turrible. Just turrible.

Ach...Ach...

Achtung! Hah! You thought it was going to be achoo. Seasonal allergies are here and I'm being somewhat affected. No need for any pills cuz I'm a man.

News:

School is starting to wind down. Just got tests then follow up finals and I feel good about them. Weather is improving of course.  Nice to have it but it's getting pretty warm at night. My dad doesn't want the a/c on just yet. Darn.

Utah Jazz are in the playoffs at the lowest seed (8th). I dunno if they can pull a road win off the Lakers. But I hope so.

It seems that finally those who were in support of the TARP program are changing their minds after 20 investigations (more to come) into criminal activity have been in the spotlight in the news. Never give money to those who can't even be responsible with their own. Really now...

I have reconfirmed that Five Guys has fantastic burgers.

Also, I've learned first hand that the SLC Tribune online opinion community is filled with many a-holes that live only to demean others with different opinions. Why do they even use up their time for such purposes? I joined while watching the jazz game last sunday and quickly left it before the jazz game ended. 

Edit:

Here's a comment from a not-so-smart fella on the subject I had participated. Note: if you are this guy, sorry, but you're not too bright from a logical standpoint. So he's quoting and responding from another person's comment:

Mikey1969: 

"Mr. Jones, I got a tax cut that means 30 dollars more per paycheck, and if I were SMART, I'd invest it all into something..."
   
   You don't really understand what a recession is, do you?
   
   A recession is a slowdown in spending(I believe we covered this when I was in the 7th or 8th grade). For one reason or another, people spend less. When people spend less, companies they do business sell less. When they sell less, they order less materials and use less advertising. When this happens, the manufacturing and advertising companies slow down. As a result, people get laid off, can't pay their bills, and the whole thing snowballs, getting bigger and bigger. The solution is to get people to spend money again. The reason last year's stimulus didn't help any isn't because Bush is a moron(He still is, mind you), but because people either stuck the money in the bank or paid down debt. This tax stimulus is designed to get you spending that extra $30, whether you buy cokes at the convenience store, go to a movie, or treat the family to dinner. The point is: you are spending money, putting it back into the cyclical flow, and as a result, stimulating the economy. This is a long process, but it should result in the opposite of what I mentioned in the beginning, in short, companies will pick up, they will fill their rosters, and they will do more work.
   
   Will it work? Who knows, but sticking your money in some investment fund isn't going to do a single thing to pick the economy back up from where it has fallen.

To Mikey1969:

 

Mikey 1969, you're silly. It's scary that this kind of ignorance is real in a 40 year old where he believes any form of smart investing has no value to the economy. This might suggest that you have no habit or tradition to save and invest any of your income. Or you might actually be saving your money into a bank or credit union without knowing the fact that money is used for investments and economic growth. 

Quick definition of a bank from wikipedia:

A bank is a government-licensed financial institution whose primary activity is to lend in order to increase economic growth. 

Hi...

Just had In n Out cheeseburger- animal style last night. Ate Five Guys a few weeks ago. Quality-wise Five Guys wins but it's twice the price than the cheeseburger. If you go for quality, Five Guys. If quantity is more important w/o being crap, then In n Out.

I don't think Melissa will like this. Hm.

I shall blog more this week.  :)

I wanna be....

Beeho Returns

I was debating b/e the titles of "Beeho Returns" or "I'm Fat." The prior reminded me of batman.

Since Saturday I've  been meaning to update so I apologize. Anyways, here comes a long update.

Recap:

Last Sunday: Flew to Chicago for the Pittcon convention. A few months back I was excited for this but I instead dreaded going because of  all the crap I had to study for in school and prepare applications for grad school. These were all due by sometime during that week. 

Flight was delayed from 11:20 am to 1:55 pm due to bad weather in Chicago. The Captain reported other pilots could not see beyond a quarter mile. Yikes. Coincidentally, the Jazz game was on so I got to enjoy watching the second half at Squatters and drank a nice Utah ale of some sort. Note: I got to fly first class because when I bought tickets with skymiles the only seats left were 1st class. Woopee! Bigger seats, drinks and food.

At the Chicago Ohare Airport I took a leak in the bathroom and I saw this: 

I wasn't sure how it works but I had an idea. However, I wasn't adventurous enough to figure it out.

I stayed at the Sheraton 4 Points hotel. It was nice for the basic 1 king bed I got. Free internet was a plus. That night I walked around a bit the blocks for food. I found this place called Pizzeria Uno and ordered the small deep dish chicago pizza. It took 1 hour to cook that sucker! So I did some wandering and grocery shopping. I bought 2 litre water bottles and some cookies. Then I picked up my pizza order to eat at the hotel. That thing is huge! Took me that night, the morning, and late afternoon to eat all of it. Delicious, it was.

Monday:

The Pittcon convention was huge. I was at a different chemical convention last September and it was small in comparison to Pittcon. I did my stuff but I wasn't really focused on it. All my focus was towards getting my essay completed for applications for schools. 

Got to and left the convention by provided charter buses. During the rides I was reminded how the underground roads looks so much like scenes from the Dark Knight (filmed in Chicago fyi). Cleaned up at the hotel and my friend came by and took me around town. 

Here are some pics:

This is the John Hancock Center Building:

We went up to the 96th floor of that building and got a great view of the city:

Other pictures while we were walking around to our dinner destination:

My buddy took me to this Japanese Sushi/South American fusion restaurant.

Pretty interior designing (poor picture quality. sry!)

The food was even better! ( These were both the dishes for both my friend and me. I'm not that gluttonous!)

Mine:

His:

Ok. So we went all out and got this nice fondue dessert. OK OK...Yes, we are gluttonous....

Pics I took on our way back to the hotel:

Huge McDonalds:

I've been seeing a lot of these pepsi billboards such as this one:

On the way back my buddy said I had to make it a priority to eat at this place next to the Mcdonalds where they serve Italian beef sandwiches. So I did just that the next afternoon before I left for the airport on Tuesday. Pretty delicious.

So that's pretty much it. I did enjoy the free time I had over there. Just wish I had more.

Now for the current news:

It's spring break. I'm doing hw. I'm relaxing. Even went back to the gym tonight after a few weeks of slacking off. I got dizzy after working out but decided to push on the treadmill. During my absence at the gym I've noticed that I've been getting zits and stuff way more frequently. Disgusting...I have to find a way to schedule in regular gym time when school continues next week. 

Long post that took me awhile to make. G'night.

Country Life

It's been decided that I'd try to expand my music list a bit so I wanted to try country. Currently, I am listening to Sara Evans, Carie Underwood, and Shania Twain. The best for me was Carie Underwood then Sara Evans. Shania Twain had some good hits back in the day but the other two were more of my preference. There were no male country artists that appealed to me. Yuck. 

Also, to mix up current music list I got John Legend album Evolver.

Life has been really busy. Going to try and fit in some gym time but not probably until spring break. I will be out of town next sunday. I will try to take pictures since it's in a city I've never been to.

Word of the day: 

smitten

1. struck, as with a hard blow.

2. grievously or disastrously stricken or afflicted.

3. very much in love.
