Quit it Nostradamus

So every week I end up watching this terrible show, the Nostradamus Effect. Now I'm sure many people will disagree with my quite opinionated statement but it's true, it is a frightening and in turn, terrible show.
I label it terrible because it delivers the horrific news that the world will end, soon.
The Nostradamus Effect interprets the many predictions that Nostradamus made centuries ago. I find the predictions are pretty vague and that they can be interpreted in so many different ways, it is crazy. The show is crazy.
So recently I saw in the news that a volcano erupted in Iceland, a large and intense volcano.
In a previous episode of The Nostradamus Effect, they discussed how the world will start succumbing to natural disasters and bad bad things will happen as a result.
With all the earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanoes erupting, I am scared and the show makes me nervous.
Take a gander.
Also, I love how people are concerned with tourism instead of how the world is consumed with war and natural disasters, check out this article.

Here Comes The Sun


The sun is here and so is my birthday :)
But wait, every year since I can remember it has snowed on my birthday...
So, I suppose we will have to see what happens...
In the meantime, I will decorate my apartment with bouquets from Safeway and jam out to the Beatles AND patiently watch my outdoor pool thaw.
Hurray.

IPP Presentations: Two Thumbs Up!


Yes spring is just around the corner and there is a lot to be happy about. The end of winter, almost the end of the school year and for the 2nd years, its the end of the IPP craziness!
Seeing everyone present their projects over the past couple days has been really awesome. Not only am I excited to start my own project but I am excited for the 2nd years as well, everyone rocked it!
What blows me away is how much everyone looked like professionals on stage. To me, us first years are just rookies and seeing the second years on stage really encouraged me as a student to embrace my studies. I can't wait to be those people next year on stage, with all that experience and just great personality and presentation skills. Even though many presenters were scared at first, everyone did a great job presenting.
You guys had so much fun and did such a good job with your presentations.
Congrats to you all!!
Lets go first years! we can do this!

Aww Not My Water!

I awoke one morning to my cat drinking out of my water glass. It's one of those moments where you roll over and think to yourself, "Ugh, I suppose he's been doing that for a while..."
Yes there's a good chance I've drank a number of violated glasses of water on my many late night moments of thirst.
My solution:
I put a coaster over my glass now.
