Futurama-Jesus-Cats and Reasonable Resolutions

Things We Say:

"Nothing says college like leftover fried wantons for breakfast!"
My facebook status.  I am going to miss my college days.  *Sigh*

"My New Year's resolution is to not die."
Me. See Blurb My Brain for comments on that.

Blurb My Brain:

What's YOUR new year's resolution?  Yes, it's that time of the year.  My new year's resolution for 2010 was to get healthier *sips on water* and to get in better shape.  I am happy to say that I have lost 10 pounds over the course of the year, nearly cut out soda, and generally only ate Subway Monday through Friday.  I still don't smoke, and I drink less now than I did last year. (Oye, never again). I find new year's resolutions to generally be a waste of time though.  (After all, 10 pounds in a year? COME ON! people on The Biggest Loser lose more than that in a week. But I'm also not 300 pounds.  Anyway....) How often do we really keep our resolutions? How often do we make vague ones--I want to be a better person--? How often do we make qualitative instead of quantitative ones? I think the whole thing is silly.  But yes, I do have one.
My New Year's Resolution in 2011 is not to die.  Seriously. I am taking 6 classes a term and working a 40 hour work week.  I am doing so to catch up to where I should be.  I'm not on the 5 year plan! lol. But my goal is to survive the year.
This includes my more serious New Year's Resolution to remain faithful to my boyfriend, because I love him more than I could ever have imagined.  I think that's pretty reasonable.

Featured Randoms:

Featured Randoms today actually has two items in it. The first came about in a discussion in my class about the validity of Wikipedia in school research.  This picture is a diagram of the early disputes that came about based on certain Wikipedia entries.  A wide variety of topics had debates.  Futurama, Jesus, Cats.

The second is kind of a long video, at 21 minutes long.  It is from a convention, and I can only assume the convention is for hackers and computer programmers.  But, I assure you, this guy is worth the time.  I don't particularly know who he is, (and if you do, please let me know) but I do know he is a hacker by the name of zoz.  Someone stole his computer.  He is telling you how he got it back, using his hacking skills.  It actually is really funny, and not too technical. So give it a watch.

Side note:

If you feel like submitting things to me, that you want me to talk about, feel free to leave it in the comment section.
