When technology fails

Sometimes, you alarm clock just doesn't go off.  There is no reason, no explanation; your technology simply failed you.  What can you do then? Not much, as no one beleives the old 'my alarm clock didn't go off".  Well, it really happened to me this morning.  Luckily I woke up 10 minutes after I wanted too, otherwise it would have been a big problem.

Procrastination is never a good thing

Well, I am sitting here trying to study for my next 7 tests in 6 days.  It seems like I always end up waiting until the last minute, but it would have been so easy to start studying a week earlier.  I'll be sure to remember this next semester, and remember what it's like to stress out about cramming for major tests.

Bad news for Red Raider fans

Last years star quarterback from Texas Tech, Graham Harrell, who finished 5th in heisman voting, was undrafted in the 2009 NFL draft.  As if that isn't disappointing enough, he just got dropped from the Cleveland Brown's practice team.  All of this is adding insult to injury for Tech fans, as star receiver Michael Crabtree, who was the consensus top receiver, was dropped all the way to the 10th pick.

Pontiacs we'll miss

Many superb cars were made by Pontiac back in the day.  The 1959 bonneville, 70 GTO, and the 69 firebird trans-am are just a few, and most recently the new g8 gt will not have a chance to develope. While Pontiac was the first from GM to go, many are saying it's only a matter of time before the next company goes down.

Wal-Mart

If you are ever feeling depressed or down, just go to the nearest Wal-Mart.  Once you go inside, you will feel a lot better about your own life.  Seeing the problems that many customers have there, whether it be screaming kids or pregnant women wearing spaghetti straps, will make you appreciate your life that much more.

Just got back from the gym

Nothing feels quite as good as relaxing after an intense workout.  You know you did something worthwhile with your time,  and you know you'll be better for it.  Plus, when you relax it feels twice as good after all the work you just did.

Finally finished the English paper

After a night of intense writing, the final English paper is written.  It really feels like an accomplishment when you look at the 1000+ words you wrote and how far you've come from the 250 word papers at the semester's start.
