I had to bike to the nearest pharmacy to get my brother some Pepto-Bismol and a bottle of Gatorade due to him having a nasty stomachache and nausea from eating XXtra Hot Cheetos before sleeping last night, vomiting profusely throughout the night. Hope he gets better soon

Busy testing out the Samsung Galaxy Tab I just purchased. Beyond me why anyone would want an iPad. This thing's so much better. Copying and pasting is a huge pain in the ass, but other than that, I could see myself never returning to a laptop. It's a really nifty little thing. I'm a little creeped out by the fact that it'll tell me it can "no longer detect [my] eyes" when I look away and begin to dim the screen, though I mean, it's a smart feature to be sure, but I can't help but feel like I'm being spied upon by an inanimate object... then again, it's running an Android OS, so you never know!!!!!! (If you believe the anti-Google privacy people, anyway. I couldn't really give a damn if Google mines data about me... not like I do anything particularly secretive or interesting.)

Since I just got a Health II class, I just got back from the school gym to log in a couple of hours of workout. Been months since I've worked out in a gym lol. As usual, my upper body strength is crap, but I'm killing it in lower body strength exercises. 3x 50 rep 450lb leg presses ftw... while the rest I'm barely doing par

Never thought you'd have given up on the gym! For shame, Scott, you seemed so gung-ho about it Why'd you stop going? What upper body exercises do you do? I'm looking to shake up my upper body strength training routine and move away from machines, so. Why 3 sets of 50, btw? I was always taught the rule of thumb was 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps, and that if you can do more than 12 reps without resting, the weights are too light.

Hahah it's not that I've given up on gym, my brother ended his gym membership since he didn't have time or money, so I couldn't parasite off his gym membership Back in high school, I used to mostly do LOTS of pushups (regular pushups, inclined pushups where my leg is resting on a 2-3ft elevation, indian pushups, and "jumping" pushups) and avoid weight training. The good thing about those pushups is that unlike weight training, it doesn't really increase muscle mass that much (since muscle mass can affect cardio) and dynamic stuff like that works those small muscles - perfect for speed+strength combo (I do closed fist variations thinking it'll help with martial arts at the time). It'll take a long time to get to that level again... so for now, just basic resistance machine stuff that works on shoulders, torso, and chest. I can only do sets of 10 2-3x (ranging from 50-140lb) for upper body stuff, since they're taking a lot out of me now. But more on upper body - kettlebells = highly recommended! I'll leave it at that. Shame I couldn't find some in the school gym... As for the 3 sets of 50, it's the limit I can do before resting between sets using the max settings the machine allows me to put it in (which is 450lbs). That, and it's more of a thing from doing technique drill repetitions, where you do the same movement many times in order to refine it (like throwing a roundhouse kick hundreds of times would make you throw them better and better).

Finishing up an incredibly terrible story I had to write for Spanish class about the time-traveling adventures of JAVIER. Complete with disembodied brains, black holes, and a NUEVA NUEVA YORK.
Possibly the worst story I've ever written in my entire life.

Possibly the worst story I've ever written in my entire life. I'd like to read it though. It's like 1 am and I'm at my dad's workplace and I want to go home but I'm with my PC and I don't want to get mugged. Even though my house is 4 blocks away

you asked for it
Nunca te olividaré Javier estaba muy contento. Su esposa había dado a luz a su hijo recientemente, que se llamaba Javier II. Después del trabajo, Javier los visitó en el hospital y luego salió para regresar a su casa por coche. Conducía a casa cuando un gran agujero negro apareció en la calle. El agujero negro lo comió. Después de mucho tiempo, se despertó en la calle. Miró a su alrededor, pero no sabía dónde estaba. No podía ver el hospital--en lugar, había los rascacielos en todas partes. Nadie estaba caminando por la calle, y la ciudad estaba muy tranquila. --¿Dónde estoy? ¡Estoy perdido!, gritó. Nadie le respondió. Entró en una tienda cerca de él y encontró a un vendedor que lo ayudó. Javier le preguntó dónde estaba. --¡Estás en San Juan, la ciudad más grande de Marte!, dijo el vendedor. Marte? El planeta? Javier no podía creerlo, y pensó que el vendedor estaba bromeando. Pero el vendedor continuaba hablando… se jactó de que el gran inventor, Javier de López VI, nació en esta ciudad. ¡Ah! ¡Javier entendió ahora—se fue al futuro! Javier quería conocer a su descendiente. Preguntó al vendedor dónde Javier VI vivía ahora porque quería visitarlo, pero el vendedor le informó que Javier VI residía en Nueva York. --Pero estoy en Marte ahora. ¿Cómo puedo viajar a la Tierra? Nunca voy a conocer a mi descendiente, Javier lloró. El vendedor tenía tres astronaves, y se ofreció a venderle una astronave… por $1,000,000. Pero Javier no era muy rico. Afortunadamente, el vecino del vendedor, que trabajaba para Google y era muy generoso, la compró. La dio a Javier gratis. Javier llegó a la Tierra en cinco minutos y aparcó en Nueva York. La ciudad era muy, muy diferente. Los rascacielos eran ahora 10,000 pies de altura, y toda la ciudad se parecía a Times Square, con las carteles gigantes y las luces de neón. ¡Qué fea! Buscó a la Estatua de la Libertad brevemente, pero no la encontró. De hecho, no había océano--el océano Atlántico era ahora un desierto. A Javier no le gustaba la nueva Nueva York. Él decidió visitar a su descendiente. Javier VI vivía en el sexto piso de un rascacielos. Pero no tenía cuerpo humano más—solo tenía cerebro. Perdió su cuerpo en un accidente cuando era niño. A consecuencia, era muy inteligente. Javier I y Javier VI se hablaban toda la noche. A Javier I le gustaba su descendiente mucho, y se sentía orgulloso de ser su antepasado. -- Gustaría quedarme contigo siempre, pero tengo que volver al pasado pronto. Voy a distorsionar el tiempo, dijo Javier I. Javier VI estaba cansado, pero ayudó a crear otro agujero negro. --¡No te olvidaré nunca!, Javier I le prometió. Volvió al pasado. EL FIN
i just gave up making sense because the story guidelines we had to follow didn't allow for anything coherent. also i was tired and it was 3 am

I had to end my gym session a little early because:
1. A friend of mine came by asking for help in his Political Science assignment 2. I had a big cramp when I pushed my calves too far doing a quick 50 rep for 250lbs in the toe press machine thing. Figured might as well get it over with and see the limit.
With that, I helped my friend with his assignment in the nearest Jack in the Box, where I ate nearly as much as I worked off.
Apparently, I'm the only person going against the California's Prop 30 in the discussion assignment. It's not that I don't' agree with it, I just brought up the fact that nobody's looking at the bigger picture and how the gains from this proposition would not be as much as projected due to its consequences.

Oh, the story wasn't bad. And despite minor gramatical errors it was well constructed and coherent. So... good job I'm waiting for lunch so I can play LoL uninterrupted with my friends. Classes start this wednesday and I'm pretty sure I'm going to miss playing LoL. But with college, who has the time?

There was an armed criminal that was at large in campus, so we had to lock ourselves in this room. I was just going to the Administration building to use the wi-fi there to call for a ride when one of the staff there told me to get in the room. I was puzzled as to why, I thought she needed help with something until she told me about the situation. A couple of school staff and three students (including me) was inside, awaiting the Sheriff escort. After waiting for half an hour, there was loud banging on the glass door! One of the staff stepped away from the corner of the room to check the door and... it's the sheriff and his deputies. With them there, we can finally make our way to the parking lot and have the staff go to their cars. One of the staff dropped me off to my place, so it was all good. The suspect is still at large though, and the cops are still looking for him. The whole time, I was thinking of what to do if the worst happened and the suspect breaks into the room - eyeing that broom in the corner the whole time and the slight wall to catch the guy from the blind spot to seize the weapon. But my instincts weren't kicking in, so my composure was still completely relaxed the whole time. I trust these instincts more than anything

Cramming for finals!!!!
I'm actually a little ashamed of myself. I had all week to study for this accounting exam, but nope, I goofed around and will be pulling an all-nighter anyway. You'd think that after 4 years, I'd have learnt my lesson by now.
But, then again, something feels right about procrastinating rightttttttt upppppppp untillllllllll theeee verryyyyyyy endddddd
Well, actually, it would work better if this accounting exam was my last exam of my undergraduate career, but, sadly, it is not. My piss-ass easy Spanish exam is, and I'm not even going to bother studying for that. What an anticlimatic end.

I've been using twitter more and more now. I once said I would rarely ever use my twitter when I first made my account, and here I am making tweets and scrolling through joke accounts. For those who have twitter... here's mine twitter.com/sukotsutoMy filters are pretty much off on twitter.

^Twitter can be a lot of fun.
What am I doing currently? Typing. I should be eating something but I'm too lazy...water is good enough for me at the moment... My mouth is in pain because of my molars that need to be taken out. It's hard to eat. Taking antibiotics and pain killers are a pain but nothing I'm not used to.
I'm also jamming out to music.

I suppose I did have a non-anticlimatic end to my college career anyway. The three or four Red Bulls and two Venti Starbucks dark roast coffees I drank for that all-nighter turned my all-nighter into a horrible 3-day-long-one. Not one of the better decisions in my life. yeah, idk what I'm doing. Killing time.
