I just turned 22
I graduate in the summer
I know something about psychology
I’ve been to Scotland
I’ve eaten a plate of haggis
I can twirl a pen around my thumb
I hate olives
I like olives in martinis
I’m told I drive like a jerk
I’ve received seven speeding tickets
I’ve had REALLY good scotch
I’ve ran up a mayan pyramid
And back down
Four times
I’ve camped in a snow cave
I’ve pretended to be Robin Hood in the forests of New Hampshire
I can blow smoke rings
I smoke too much hookah
I am a space pirate
I’ve had my toenail surgically removed
After breaking it playing soccer
I’ve been on life support
I was the captain of my high school swim team
I’ve been first chair in a concert band
I’ve recorded a piece of music in a Disney recording studio
I’ve swam with dolphins in Mexico
I’ve walked in the pouring rain…then proceeded to dance
I’ve been in love
I’ve had my heart broken
I’ve talked until three in the morning by a flickering fire, under the stars
I’ve lost family and friends
I’ve gained family and friends
I’ve held my newborn baby sister
And watched her grow up into a brilliant and beautiful woman
I’ve been given a detailed journal of my life since I was born (I love you, dad)
I don’t always treat people the way they should be
I’m working on it
I’m still living my life.
Things I realized today…
1. Motivation to write a research paper > The need to go to statistics
2. Even if you’re not a participant, wearing a headband during HvZ week does, in fact, warrant mass amounts of NERF darts to be fired at you.
3. It’s still awkward when someone tries to carry out a conversation with you at a urinal. Dude, my penis is in my hand, can we not do this now? Appreciate it.
4. I’m pretty sure that if someone ever parked their car close enough to mine so that I was unable to open my door, instead of standing there calling my friend to come pick me up because some inconsiderate dick doesn’t know how to park…I’d walk around and open my passenger door. But that’s just me being crazy.

And Mexico. I miss that too.

Nick’s random statements for the day:
If I were to drink during a zombie apocalypse, I would die almost immediately due to sheer cockiness (but I’d take down at least half a dozen infected post-mortem animate cadavers in my inebriated rampage).
I apparently have a specific type of eczema around my eyes that is most commonly caused by emotional stress called seborrheic eczema.
I was told I need to ease up on my treadmill workout today at the CSU rec center because the machine started smoking and giving off a smell of burnt rubber during my sprints.
That’s all I got.
“There was a significant effect of elevated heart rate on the number of words recalled at the p<.001 level for the four conditions, F(3,36)=7.82, p<.00038. Post hoc comparisons using the Tukey HSD test indicated that the mean score for words recalled in the R-R condition (M=8.15, SD=4.76) was significantly different than the mean scores for E-E (M=5.23, SD=2.35), R-E (M=5, SD=2.92), and E-R (M=3.69, SD=1.89). No significance was found between conditions other than R-R.”
-My Replication Experiment Results
So basically it didn’t turn out the way I wanted it to at all, and my entire hypothesis is for not. It wouldn’t even be that bad, except I still had to do all these calculations to determine something I already knew, and now I get to explain why I was wrong.
College is so awesome!

I would dive into the deepest ocean
Or climb the tallest tree
All for the sake of knowing
Where I’m meant to be
This. Immediately after I accomplish anything I thought was worth doing.

“I’m not sayin’ that I’ll love you
I’m not sayin’ that I’ll care
If you love me.
I’m not sayin’ that I’ll care
I’m not sayin’ that I’ll be there
When you want me.”
“I can’t give my heart to you
Or tell you that I’ll sing your name
Up to the sky.
I can’t lay the promise down
That I’ll always be around
When you need me.”
“I’m not sayin’ I’ll be sorry
For the things that I might say
That make you cry.
I can’t say I’ll always do
The things you want me to,
I’m not sayin’ I’ll be true
But I’ll try.”
Almost lost it today after my roommate left for work. This is me venting. For those inclined to listen, I might suggest turning your volume down.
of being so warm all of the time…
