Super Size Me
September 9th, 2008
A little behind the curve, I know, I have just finished watching Super Size Me. While it is an extreme an example of bad dieting I do think that there are many lessons that can be learned from it. I will hopefully never eat at another McDonalds again. If you haven’t seen it yet I highly reccomend watching it.
Waking Up “Early”
September 9th, 2008
After my usual rumaging around Digg I somehow came accross a link to Steve Pavilina’s website. More specifically, an article about getting the proper amount of sleep in order to be the most productive. I’ve read some articles on his site about polyphasic sleep and I figured that either this guy knows what he is talking about or is really good at making stuff up. Either way, it can’t hurt to try something as simple as waking up at the same time every day, no matter how much sleep you actually get. His idea is that your body will automatically adjust to how much sleep it is getting and therefore make you tired at the appropriate times. I’m going to give that a try by waking up at 8am even though i don’t need to be awake until 9:30am. I’ll see how this goes.
First Day of College
August 26th, 2008
I have to say, I’m not impressed. Math teacher who doesn’t teach? Check.Classes as interesting as always? Check. The vast majority of the population that is still stupid (though I have to give them some credit for at least trying)? Check. It’s like high school, but with better hours. At least I have a college savings fund that is paying for this. Maybe some of my other classes will be better. So far I have yet to see the appeal of working four years for a sheet of paper that will land me a job that I hate. I’ll see how the rest of the week goes and then report back.
Cheers.
