Can't reset the years

Currently Playing: OZMA - Gameover

I miss the days where I could shirk my responsibilities with little or no repercussions. Don't get me wrong; in no way am I saying that I miss school or class. But I am saying that I miss missing class.

With that in mind, I never wrote the "reflect back on the last four years" entry that I was planning on writing when I graduated. And you know what, I probably never will.

Just so long as this thing is loaded

Currently Playing: Taking Back Sunday - Cute Without The "E" (Cut From The Team)

I found a Jack Bauer spin-off of the Vin Diesel/Chuck Norris Random Facts. The Jack Bauer one is more awesome not only because Jack Bauer is the fucking man, but also because many of these are conceivably true.

These are some of the most hilarious I have seen:

-Upon hearing that he was played by Kiefer Sutherland, Jack Bauer killed Sutherland. Jack Bauer gets played by no man.

-If you wake up in the morning, it's because Jack Bauer spared your life.

-When life gave Jack Bauer lemons, he used them to kill terrorists. Jack Bauer fucking hates lemonade.

-If it tastes like chicken, looks like chicken, and feels like chicken, but Jack Bauer says its beef. Then it's fucking beef.

-Lets get one thing straight, the only reason you are conscious right now is because Jack Bauer does not feel like carrying you.

-Jack Bauer once won a game of rock paper scissors using niether rock, paper nor scissors.

-Jack Bauer removed the "Escape" button from his keyboard. Jack Bauer never needs to escape.

-Jack Bauer arm once wrestled Superman. The stipulations were the loser had to wear his underwear on the outside of his pants.

-Jack Bauer's favorite color is severe terror alert red. His second favorite color is violet, but just because it sounds like violent.

-When you open a can of whoop-ass, Jack Bauer jumps out.

-Jack Bauer uses #1 pencils on standardized tests.... Jack Bauer doesn't associate with anything that is #2.

-What color is Jack Bauer's blood? Trick question. Jack Bauer does not bleed.

-In Season 3 Jack Bauer "distracted" an armed terrorist using only a lighter, some bullets, and a tin can. He then shot the man anyway.

You won't be the last one anymore

Currently Playing: Yellowcard - Underdog

Kobe Bryant, in his self-written article in the newest issue of Dime:

"I HATE being scored on, even by players who some say are "un-guardable". I don't believe it when they say "Oh, that player is just hot today." F--- that! Cool his ass off then."

On a related note, we MUST put a stop to the current trend of getting our asses kicked in IM basketball. And I need to figure out why my shoes have lost all traction to the point where I could slide across the court without even lifting either of my feet off the ground.

And I'm thinking I'd prefer not to be rescued

Currently Playing: Jack's Mannequin - Rescued

The top 10 things I would do if I were to suddenly came into a large sum of money (i.e. by winning the lottery, robbing banks, dealing drugs, etc...you know):

1. Buy everyone I know a fucking electric car. Then when people say my car is electric, I can respond with, "Not as electric as yours, bitch!" Or something to that effect.

2. Pay off my parents' mortgage, car loans, etc...As long as I never have to worry about money again, they should never have to worry about money again.

3. Buy an awesome home entertainment system. Complete with the best speaker system available and the second largest plasma TV ever made (I mean, I would not want it to be too gaudy; and I definitely do not want to make it seem like I am compensating for something).

4. Find a part-time job that I would enjoy doing, but could still blow off if I felt like it. Something like substitute teaching, for example. (On a side note, I have always wondered about substitute teaching. Are substitute teachers actually substitute teachers for a living? Or are they former teachers who are inbetween jobs? Or do they just substitute teach as a side job? Who are they?)

5. Buy Tiffany that *ahem* (overpriced) necklace she likes so much. Among other things.

6. Go back to school and get a degree in something useful. Like...I don't know, Philosophy or something. Not this junk Biochemistry and Cell Biology degree I have now.

7. Blog more often. Or maybe not. I would have the time, but would I have the will to get over the laziness?

8. Travel. I could do this even if I did not win the lottery, but this way I could travel now.

9. Buy Lakers season tickets. I need to make up for all the games I have missed (i.e. all of them).

10. Donate to cancer research or maybe even do some research myself. Because let's face it, if you live long enough, you are guaranteed to get cancer sooner or later. And that sucks.

My life has become a boring pop song and everyone's singing along

Currently Playing: Jack's Mannequin - I'm Ready

Have you ever had one of those days where you just seem to be standing still while everything around you continues to move? All of the sudden you realize you have no recollection of the past four hours, and by the time you finally get over the idea that time has passed without you knowing, another two hours have passed.

"And today was a day just like any other."
