Lighten Up!

My past week has been pretty crazy.  It's getting to be the end of the semester, so my professors are really piling on the work, and on top of that, I have rugby practice AND I got sick last week.  I was stressed.  It was not cool.  But then I remembered that it's only school, right?  I mean, if I get a less than stellar grade on a test, is it really that big of a deal?  My philosophy is not to take anything too seriously, and I sincerely try to keep to that.  I need a good dose of laughter and tomfoolery in my life.  So does this guy.
Surviving the World is a good place to go if you need a little pick-me-up after a rough day of classes.  This dude is the coolest.  Each day, his graphs, picture, etc. are all so wonderful and true.  His wonderfully straight face during most of the pictures kills me as well.  He is so spot-on with everything he posts, his insight is fascinating.

Moral of the story:  don't take things so seriously.  It's really not that big of a deal if you bomb a test next week, are you really going to remember it fifty years from now?  Highly doubtful.  So relax, and enjoy your life.  I could put so many corny quotes here, so I will.  From one of my all-time favorite movies, " Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."  That's right, ladies and gentlemen, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.  If anyone needs some sort of inspiration or idol in their life, it should be him.  He is the chillest kid ever.  I wish I was Ferris Bueller.

  1. This looks like a truly interesting post today for a website. I am surprised at how one person is able to put together this whole website, basically by themselves. That's kind of off topic from what this post is about, but it is something interesting that I noticed about it. This website is similar to the one posted a couple weeks ago and was a list of things that people like. Very cool stuff.

  2. The internet needs more sites that are lighthearted while at the same time being clever. So many things online are just ridiculous and that is perfectly okay if it will make you laugh, cheer you up, or take life less seriously. However, I like a little wit mixed in with my ridiculousness, and I think this site delivers that.

  3. I love all of your posts on this blog. I visited this guy's site, and I think most of his posts are hilarious. I particularly love his Lesson #907: College Majors, Part II. I think the display of the brackets depicts perfectly the complex process that we as college students all go through in order to narrow down our lists of potential college majors.

  4. Often it is easy to lose sight of what's important in life. Enjoying life is a small thing that we are quick to overlook as we get lost in the never-ending taks of everyday life. This site is a great pick-me-up and a great way to spend your time on the internet.
