Cake

Everyone loves cake. I love chocolate cake! Just took this photo today ;)

THERMITE!!

Just watched my chemistry professor light thermite in class as a demonstration of hetergenous exothermic reactions.

Blue sparks, thick smoke, and dripping lava-hot iron.

Chemistry ain't so bad at the university level, eh?





Video is of the same room/contraption, but different professor/class. I think this was a few years ago at UCSD.

OH, SUCH PWNAGE!

HAMSTER?!

I'm thinking about getting another hamster as a pet (and model for my photography hobbies), and I would like to know what you guys think. Is 20 too old to own a hamster? Do you guys have hamsters?

Tell me your stories, and I promise I'll share mine ;)

RayBan Glasses?

What do you guys think about aviator style sunglasses? Are they too commonplace, hipster, and de rigueur? I've been thinking about getting a pair of Ray Ban's for myself this holiday season, and I'd love to hear what my followers think about them!

I'm not sure if you've all seen this, but just watch it again if you have ;)

Summer Overture-Requiem for a Dream(Soundtrack)

A great piece from the film Requiem for a Dream. If you haven't caught it yet, make sure you watch it! It's one of the best films of its genre, and I'd watch it again and again :)

I AM BACK!

Finally back from a long hiatus of moving to a new apartment. I spent plenty of time unpacking and arranging my stuff around. But now I'm finally back and online, and the internet is zippy and fast. I don't have a router yet, and am only directly connected to the modem. That means I'll be on my laptop less often until I get one.

Anyways, thanks for stopping by, and I'll update with another post soon!

How Inception Should Have Ended

So hilarious ;) Inception was great, but as soon as it came out it needed to have a parody. SNL would make it so much enjoyable ;)

ALPACAAAAA

Don't you think alpacas are cute?? ^^
