Scheduling Conflict
Lets crunch the numbers for my schedule this semester, shall we?
Work (KB Lounge)- 24hrs.
Work (The Standard)- 8hrs.
Internship-16hrs.
Class-18hrs.
Homework-4hrs
Fraternity-5hrs
Thats a 77 hour work week there. Everyone always worries about when they graduate and have to go into the “real world.” The real world seems so fucking easy compared to right now.

“My sheriff interview the otherday “Have u ever done drugs?” I said...”
– Another funny story from my brother, Pat. I wanna live in San Diego.
This just in...
I am claiming, after my last post, that I have created a new phrase:
WhyTF
You’re Welcome.
The Average by Breathe Electric.
“My name is Bradley Norris and I am a senior Law Enforcement...”
– Me during the class introductions. I had the whole place rolling. I can’t believe I never did that before.
OMG!
My Tuesday night teacher, Dr. Yoshiko Takahashi is absolutely and completely inaudible. She is pretty much fresh off the plane from Japan and you can COMPLETELY tell. This is going to be rough.
Imagine taking a criminal justice course from Mrs. Swan.

Update: I just found out that we have one recture that is a web based crass.

It’s about damn time. I never understood why such emphasis was put on an arcane form of penmanship. They may as well teach architectural lettering… at least it is legible. (via thedw)
About goddam time. The one thing I loathed about elementary school, and more specifically, the 2nd through 4th grade, was that every teacher stressed how in high school and middle school the only...
Warped, what is it good for?
Last year’s lineup was disappointing to say the least. I tried and tried but could not justify going to an all day festival in the summer for two bands (Rise Against, 3OH!3). These are the bands I am psyched to see on the tour this summer:
3OH!3*
A Skylit Drive
Bayside
Breathe Carolina*
Chiodos
Dance Gavin Dance*
Escape the Fate
Saosin
Scary Kids...
New Jack City
Got the comments back
Got a new theme
Got a new title banner
Got a new lease on life
Get your freak on!
What was I Synching?
Just got into my Monday night class and we are hooked up via video with another class at College of the Sequoias. Kinda weird. There is a big screen in the back running a live feed of their classroom. I can’t tell but I think the blur in the back row is a hot chick…or a ficus.
Update: There are also 2 students in Lemoore. They can’t hear anything though.
Update on the...
WatchYEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
The only way this could be any sweeter was if he were a Cowboys fan.
That would even make me forget about the NFC Championship game.
Really?!?!
Really? The Bucket (formerly The Pub) isn’t open till 11am now? Really? The premiere coffee spot in the smack-dab center of campus does not open till 11am? Just bulldoze the fucker already. This is sad because when I first came to school here, the pub had delicious food in good proportions and was a really cool place to hang out between classes. The last 2-3 years it has been going downhill...
“So im drunk at 1am on the beach playing with Bruschi, and were having a grand ol...”
– My Brother has become quite the little storyteller.
Beer Me Some Coffee
You know when you buy a 12 pack of Bud Light and a 30 pack of Keystone Light and people are all like, “What’s up with that?” And you are all, like, “If I drink the 12 pack of the good stuff first, by the time I get to the cheap stuff I will be too drunk to care!”
It doesn’t work the same way for coffee.
The coffee at work tastes just as much like baby diarrhea...

Every year when Lost season comes into sight, I like to go back and watch this video we made years ago. Jeff and I thought of the concept and Scott did the music.
I am concerned by how many clips there are of Sawyer taking off his shirt.
“I’ll leave you with a quote from the late great Green Bay Packers head...”
– Me to my colleague, Blake, after asking me who would win the NFC Championship. He knows damn well that my Eagles are going to dominate.

Best Actress- Kate Winslet (Revolutionary Road)
Best Director- Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire)
Best Screenplay- Slumdog Millionaire
Best Original Score- Slumdog Millionaire

Bamboozled
Check out the lineup for Bamboozle being held in New Jersey.
Now compare it to the lineup for Bamboozle Left, being held in sunny, beautiful California.
WTF?
Touche, East Coast. You win this battle.
Voicing My Opinion

Jonny Craig (Emarosa, formerly Dance Gavin Dance)
Craigery Owens (Chiodos, Cinematic Sunrise)
Aaron Gillespie (Underoath, The Almost)
Anthony Green (Circa Survive)
Tim Mcllrath (Rise Against)

MTV, drunk on profits from The Hills, decided to give us our own TV show.
We’re excited. More details to come, obviously.
I was planning to reblog this and had a lot of people’s blogs to choose from but I think Ricky Van Veen, Editor-in-Chief of Collegehumor.com, put it the best.
“Don’t get overwhelmed. Panic is a voluntary reaction. Just calm down and...”
– Message I just sent my gf who is driving in downtown Fresno right now. Pretty chill. Pretty poetic.
PS. It worked.
