It is really simple and free. And though I speak about this whimsically I actually think it is a really good cause. Annnnnnnnnd if she gets a lot of books she gets to meet Obama, which means Lily can finally pass on my message to him. Help her out! Email her if you gots questions.

I Just Swallowed a Cherry Seed.............

This isn't good. I was too excited to eat a cherry and now I feel the seed slowly traveling down my esophagus. It is going to hurt later.......On the plus side, eating a cheery seed probably has the same effect as eating a lot of highly highly condensed fiber. I drew a diagram to illustrate my predicament:

On a related note, this is not the first time cherry seeds were my enemy. I once bit down so hard on one that I broke a part of my tooth off. Fortunately, I have two mutant teeth....well actually only one now after the cherry seed had it's way. The teeth look like molars but with a point in the middle, as diagrammed beautifully below. Ask me and I might show you one time. -Mike

Lumpsucker

This is a lumpsucker (see description on bottom)--->
It looks like a hippo; I like him a lot. I've noticed a trend about me: if it's fat and round I will like it. Like babies. Or pandas. But not like Jack Black, he don't make good movies.

Lumpsuckers can be found at the California Academy of Science, where I went today with Paul. We actually went to the Nightlife thing that happens every Thursday from 6-10pm. The only difference is that it is 21+ because they have a DJ and alcohol. Perhaps the alcohol helps people appreciate the science more in a Timothy Leary sorta way but I've been appreciating science for 3 whole years without it so I passed on it tonight. It was actually not a bad night but animals become sleepier at night. Just makes me want to rattle them up. At the water petting zoo part, as I like to call it, of the aquarium the scientist kept telling me things about star fish and I told her politely"yeah, I already know this stuff because I am a bio major". And then unexpectedly she began asking me a lot of questions about a lot of sea creatures. I might've accidentally told her a lot of lies........my memory isn't very good. But at least it was good conversation.

1000 Words

I really like this picture! Not only does it combine two of my favorite animals into one cute hybrid animal of sorts but it also encapsulates my my past three weeks of vacation to Hong Kong and Thailand. Since pictures speak 1000 words I do not need to write about my vacation anymore. I kid, I will probably write some stuff and post pictures later. On a side (yet highly relevant) note, after riding a elephant in Thailand, I've decided I really want one when I grow (more) up. I think they are expensive though.............................this will be hard.

Hello

Greetings my soon to be millions, no, billions of fans. Today I return to the world of blogging about my life. I used to have a xanga and I got tired of it but after 4 years it seems like the right time to come back I guess. This blog will be cooler and edgier than the older one though because I have become cooler and edgier over the years as many should attest to. This blog might also be less in depth than the other one to prevent readers from asking me "why are you so much more interesting on your blog than in person?" (If such readers are reading this right now then know that I hate you! JK) I will leave some parts of my life and some events in my life a mystery so you can still ask me "how are you doing?" or "what has been going on in your life?" when you see me. But don't worry, I aim to please.

Anywho, I should acknowledge some people. Thanks Anthony, Christine for being all crazy about blogging again, perhaps it is infectious. Also thanks to Ashley whose tumblr is really cool; you don't know this yet but I am going to blatantly plagiarize your style of blog entries haha. I hope that is ok.....................I technically am giving you credit with this shout out so maybe it isn't plagiarism. That is all, peace.
