Stupid copyright laws

Or rather, stupid youtube with copyrighted media detection.

Since youtube isn't allowing me to post stuff there, I'm going to put it here. Take that!




"Take a bite outta the silver sandwich!"

Hey, inspirational speeches are hard to come up with on the spot.




I'm worried that blogger might get mad if I try to put more than two videos in one post, so I won't.

You know you haven't gotten enough sleep when...

It seems appropriate that one of my first posts in a long time would be similar to one of my first posts ever.

1. You don't take a nap because you're afraid that you'll sleep through the alarm and miss class--again.

2. You don't drink coffee because you know that, instead of waking you up, it will only make you think that you are going to have a heart attack.

3. You still don't have that song memorized from the album that you've been listening to all night, despite the fact that it's the only song on the album that has lyrics and it's only eight lines long.

4. You start compiling lists like this one.

5. You come up with an idea, but by the time you come up with evidence to support it, you forget what the idea was to begin with.

6. You take a shower to wake yourself up, but it only aggravates the scar tissue from an old neck injury, making it feel as though it was inflicted yesterday.

7. You go to look for a book, but have to hold the syllabus in your hand while you search because you forget the name of the book as soon as you look up from the page.

8. You're worried that you might fall asleep mid-blink.

9. You feel oddly comforted by a cartoon character's hallucination of sheep-cheerleaders.

10. You are reminded of the time when they passed around drunk goggles in class--your vision is both blurry and oddly clear at the same time.

11. After your morning class you think it's nighttime because of the overcast sky.

12. You spend several minutes looking at a picture via slide show, and become increasingly annoyed that you have to keep pushing the back arrow when it moves to the next picture, only to realize hours later that you had the picture set as your desktop background the whole time.

13. You compile a list like this, but only come up with 12 things.


This is the scene with the sheep:



I would have embedded the youtube link that I posted, but it came out all weird there. Aang decides that the only way to avoid his nightmares is to avoid sleeping altogether. As I said in the youtube description, thankfully I have never reached this stage.
