This meant that I've had 161GB of useless information taking up my computer for no real reason. Most of it being installed games I didn't even know where installed.

Good thing I did a check, it's deleting it all now.

Enjoy the feeling of unexpected disk space !

Happy Easter to everyone ! I hope you all ate many chocolate eggs and whatnot.

Before we reach the end of the festivities, I thought I'd post my GarageBand masterpiece for you all to enjoy. I'm still waiting for it to go multiplatinum.

A volcano has been discovered beneath Mt LeConte in lower Appalachia. If it erupts (most likely it will not and that would be awful considering how populated the area is), I'll be able to check of "see a volcano" from my bucket list.

It's always nice to wake up, go out of my dorm room and discover the hallway completely trashed and the door handle missing from the door to leave the hallway.

I know it was there yesterday.

I love working in nursing homes sometimes. Had a patient tell me today that she "couldn't walk, but I would love to becuase you have the prettiest teeth".
That's right, I've got better teeth than all of you. Bow in awe of me.

Humans are weird -- We spend ten minutes heating up soup only to spend the next ten minutes blowing on it so that it cools down.

Surprisingly heating it up for ten minutes makes it hot for about 30 minutes before it needs to be re-heated.  So 10 minutes would have it cooled down to "Not scalds your tongue."

I prefer this outlook. Humans are weird. Literally the entirety of what is allowing you to read this is founded upon a million different foundations spanning across human history, which is also a human concept.

I did not know that using a banana for scale was this scientific.

I hope all you fine folk from Houston are doing ok. Stay safe.

I've been alright. I really don't have a good scope to the extent of it. Tomorrow is going to be the first day that I go to school this week, though.

One of my courseworks had me peer assess three students and their essay on an ethical issue.

The sad part is, one of the students didn't seem to understand the question, and thus I had to give them low marks. They talked about the telephone and why it's a great invention, instead of an ethical issue. I tried to give them a few more marks than it's worth and some comments here and there about why they deserve them, but it's really sad to see this person lose marks over not truly understanding English as well as other students.

It's a shame really, but for a lot of people. They're probably going to fail this course and not really care one way or another, so I'm hoping it's the same situation for them.

Floods.  A crap ton of flooding.  Warnings for flash flood went all the way through last Wednesday.
