Study Abroad

So I would love probably more than anything to study abroad somewhere in Europe. For the most part financial aide covers the same as going to school here, but the only thing holding me back is airfare. I don't have $400 lying around plus whatever expenses i would have while i'm there. They should make a program for students that is all inclusive so everyone has a chance to see the world before all the responsibilites of careers and adulthood hold them back.

Bad housing...

So Stony Brook is clearly overcrowded and under-housed. I had no idea how reapplying for housing since this was my first year here. I missed my deposit date AND my "housing appointment" - i had no idea that this even exhisted. So now in order to MAYBE somehow get housing next year. Since freshman are guaranteed housing, the uppder classmen can easily get dicked out of living here at all at one misstep. This is truly unfair since the freshman class is typically cut in half by the next year due to dropouts and transfers. Something should be done to be more fair for people who actually need housing and plan on staying.
Walmart Pays Up.




So walmart has owned up to their fuck-up and paid $2 million in New York to improve safety in their stores. I hope they have to pay more than that in the long run. I've seen how they let people in on black friday in 2007, they open the doors and everybody runs. Its amazing that only one person was killed.

Some kid thought he was cool.



So some kid thought he was doing a cool trick... didn't turn out that way. Epic failure. I could kill so much time on these sites.


My suitemate's girlfriend performed this in the Tabler drag show... was the funniest shit i've ever seen.

"LETS DO THE FORK IN THE GARBAGE DISPOSAL!"
Yeah nice one...




Too bad for all the dumb bitches trying to lose weight in the entirely wrong way.

Cinco De Mayo

Cinco De Mayo was yesterday. I spent it working on videos, blogs, papers, and lacking sleep. It was actually my roomates birthday. She spent her day with her mom and uncle, typical dinner and a movie type spiel. She then spent the night making out with her alcohol reeking girlfriend. No problem there. hah.
