So this evening, I was browsing through the website for the University of Utah’s student paper and I read this utter piece of shit. It’s your standard rant about how because Democrats don’t universally support General Petraeus’s recommendations, they want our troops to die and our country to burn. My rant is after the jump.
So, this past weekend, I hosted a 99 party. A 99 party is my personal invention where only 99 drinks are served (although I also had some beers for the more wimpy of my friends). 99 drinks consist of 99 Bannanas, 99 Berries, 99 Cherries, 99 Apples, 99 Oranges, and 99 Peaches (which I was only ever able to find in Miami, but it is well worth it if you can find it). All these drinks are schnappses (?) that are 99-proof (44.5% alcohol, e.g. more than vodka).
Anyhow, many as you say “party fouls” were committed throughout the night and I wanted to share with you college students what not to do at a party. Here is some of what happened:
People spilled drinks. This one seems almost inevitable. No matter where a party is, who comes to the party, what people drink, people will always find a way to get their favorite drink onto your favorite laptop.
People sleeping on the floor. The same girl from number 3 also decided, in her drunkenness, to sleep on the floor in the middle of the party. Go home, if you’re that tired.Well that’s about all the bad party fouls that were committed. Take a lesson and don’t do these things at a party because nobody likes them and then consequently, nobody will like you.

After writing 8 useful articles college students should read, I have actually started to use some of the ideas on those sites. With slight modification, I have come up with the best way to get a procrastinator like me to get things done.
Here is what I do: I make a to-do list with everything I need to do in the near future. Alright, big deal, a lot of people do that. Well, my difference is the extra list I make every day when I wake up. Within half an hour of getting out of bed, I write down three things that I need to and am going to do that day. I stick to it and do those things. It is almost like a promise to yourself.
This has helped me to finally open my business checking account, set up my work out schedule, photoshop some pictures to put up in my room as posters, go talk to my teachers at office hours, take out the recycling, and a lot more. Let me know if it works for you.
Take ten minutes out of your day to watch these fun little pranks. I am not sure what show they are from, but they will make you feel better and give you a boost to continue through those classes, study sessions, and group meetings.

10 Surprising Uses For Aspirin for any college student with a bit of aspirin
Everybody has some aspirin laying around, but I bet you didn’t know it could do so much more than cure a headache. According to the article aspirin can remove stains, reduce size and redness of pimples, make flowers last longer, reduce dandruff, help with insect bites, and prevent fungus. Note, however, that you do not eat aspirin for these things, but instead crush it and apply it to the spot.
