Dear Mother Nature...

Dear Mother Nature,
I'm not here to complain about your decisions concerning the weather. I'm here to tell you that everything is going to be alright. I understand that you may be going through some rough times, but it will get better. Trust me. I think that you just need some positive reinforcement. You are doing a fantastic job, as you always have. Just look at some of the things you have done. Remember when you had that awesome stretch of beautifully sunny days in the middle of winter? Or that time you made it rain at just the right time to cool everyone down? Let's go back to those times. We miss you the way you were.

Love,
Tom Knuckles

The Problem With These Blogs...

I really wish most of you would post stuff more often, so I could actually comment on them. Instead, I'm stuck commenting on the same four or five peoples stuff. Not saying that I have a problem with those who I comment on, but a little variety would be nice.

I'm So Tired.

I want to sleep. I have felt worn out this entire week. I can hardly keep my eyes open at the moment. Only one more class until I can nap......

Busy Day Ahead

I do not enjoy Wednesdays very much this semester. I always seem to have stuff to do that prevents me from relaxing. For a decent chunk of the rest of the day I will be spending time in the library doing work for about 50 different things. Oh well.....

I Love This Weather

Finally! After weeks and weeks of mother nature deciding to tease us with nice weather, we get it! It's so warm out. Let's just hope it continues!

Side note: Its the weekend. 'Nuff said.

Exhibit A As To Why People Under The Age Of 15 Should Not Get Record Contracts

I can't get this stupid song out of my head. No its not Creed, nor is it Nickelback. Its not even that godforsaken "Like A G6" song. It's the next internet sensation, Rebecca Black's "Friday."

I completely discovered the song by accident. For the past few days, one of the trending topics on Twitter has been "Rebecca Black." (SIDE NOTE: follow me- @tcrazyknuckles. Thanks.) I like to check out the trending topics every once in a while just to see what is happening in the world outside of my interests. After noticing her name slowly rising farther and farther on the list, I decided to check it out. I clicked on her name only to be flooded with a mass of Tweets proclaiming the joys of "Friday." So I decided to search the video to see if the Twitterverse was correct.

What I was greeted with was a disgrace to music. As I quickly discovered, all of the Tweets praising "Friday" were sarcasm at its best. For those of you who haven't heard this song, its basically a 13 year old girl singing about her "troubles" concerning the week, including not eating her cereal, waiting for the bus, and not knowing if she should sit in the front seat or the back seat with her friends (who are all also 13 but can somehow drive.) She then sings about the days of the week (for anyone who doesn't know them, presumably the target audience) and how the best one is Friday. Finally, a random middle-aged black guy (who looks suspiciously like Common) begins rapping about changing lanes in traffic. Needless to say, he has already killed his career before it even began.

Here is the link to the video for those of you who haven't seen it. WARNING: IT MAY CAUSE YOUR EARS TO BLEED!

I'm Back!

After my week-long hiatus from blogging, I have returned! I decided to take spring break off and simply relax. I pretty much sat around most of the week and watched Lost. However, I did go see Haste The Day's last show ever last Friday. It was beyond belief and probably the single best concert I have ever been to. Definitely the best $16 dollars I have ever spent.

Spring Break

Only one more class to go until spring break for me. Thank god. I'm not going anywhere special but it'll be nice to just relax at home. This last week has ran me thin and a week-long break from work will be much appreciated. I just hope it isn't pouring the entire time I'm home.

Have a fun and safe spring break everyone!

Dear Wednesday

Dear Wednesday,
Why must you be so mean? Especially this week. Spring break is so close I can almost touch it, but yet you must rear back your ugly head and make me feel bad. Only two classes, but yet somehow, you managed to make my day filled with other things that I cannot avoid. Meetings, homework, midterms. Is there anything in your bag of tricks that you have not pulled out yet? Don't hate me Wednesday, I never did anything to you.

Tom

LOST

I am addicted. I had always meant to watch Lost, but every time I would make an effort to watch it, I would get distracted and confused. However, now that the entire series is on Netflix, I have decided to start from the beginning and work my way all the way through. Currently, I'm a little over half-way through the first season, but it's gonna take some time. The first season alone is 25 episodes, with each being 45 minutes long, and with a total of 6 seasons, I'm going to be here for awhile. So if you need to find me, I'll probably be watching Lost.
