NAKED BIKE RIDE.
Yes, it just happened. It was odd, cold, and ridiculous; everything I had hoped for. Congratulations to all UVM students who participated!
My Last Post
I have been wondering what will become of Drag your feet as the semester winds down. Think of the possibilities, maybe Drag Your Feet 802 will be stumbled upone by some great blogger who will in turn pay Megan Josh and I for the name and all of its contents. Wishful thinking huh? Well no matter what happens it has been fun for me to find things that will keep people occupied. And in a way I was able to procrastinate for homework. For now though, I think I will put the power-blogging on hold. At least until I have time to update one regulalry, so long for now..

Innovative Art
Heres another one for the records, you start again with a toliet paper role. Cut it very precisely...
and wha-la you are decoration for your home or patio.
It starts with a roll of toliet paper, and is transformed into...
A piece of art. I know you are thinking wait there is no way that is possible. But with patience, innovation and some artistic skill, these faces are created.

Revenge Is Oh So Sweet
This photo along with many others here was not created using photoshop or any other photo editing program. It is an allusion of the eye, by simply using depth and camera angles. The photos on this website will provide you with humor and sometimes leave you asking, how did they do that?
Stop Smoking Ads
People smoke and people drink. There is not much you can do about that, however these advertisments are creative and inticing. Looking through them, one has to wonder what these drugs will do to their body and how they will affect their health and the rest of their lives. click here for more!
DInner Crashers
Here's an article from CNN that thinks they aren't crashers. I think I have to agree. They didn't really DO anything. It's the secret service people should be worrying about.

I've given in to the fad...
I don't know why, but I told myself I was going to open a book from the Twilight series. At the risk of being totally sucked in, like every other teenage girl right now in the country, I didn't see myself enjoying books like that. However, I am a sucker for Harry Potter. Over Thanksgiving break, a group of my friends, all of whom have either already seen the first movie, or read the books, decided it would be funny to take me to see the most recent installment. Mind you, I haven't read the books, nor have I seen the first film. They dragged me kicking and screaming into the theater, fuming at the fact I had just spend eight bucks on something I had told myself to stay away from. I bite my tongue for saying this, but I actually enjoyed it! If I don't over analyze the concept of it all, which by the way is totally creepy and weird, I'm rather sucked in! I hate giving into fads, but I think over break I'm going to have to lock myself in a room and buck up and read the books. And for all you die hard fans who will know what I'm talking about, I'm officially a member of Team Jacob!
Is there a Captain in you?
OK, my friend sent me a link to this table, comparing "Famous Captains". I couldn't help but laugh to myself. Quite clever right??!!

Renew Yourself: Males
As promised I am going to write some tips for males to "renew" themselves. I called my brother for this one because being a female I have absolutely no idea what the males in this world do to relax. My brother being a very vague and shy phone talker surprisingly gave me some decent ideas...
1. Play Xbox live
2. Eat, eat, and eat more
3. Sleep just as much as you eat
4. Organize your wallet (this one surprised me)
5. Get some shots up (he is not legal yet and was talking about basketball)
6. Listen to Coldplay
Again I am no expert in this topic, so do you all agree or disagree with this list? Comment with your relaxing techniques!
Future Marketers of America
Before I became an English major, I thought seriously about being a marketing major. Advertising methods and the creation of ads intrigued me very much. Lets face it, the people who make some of the crazy commercials out there are pretty good at what they do. They know exactly how to get our attention and furthermore, go out and buy their product from watching or seeing it. Here are some ads that were designed by students. Some of them are very clever in my mind and companies should talk to their marketing team and take a few pages out of the students' books.
I'm in debt from paying my light bill!
The Miracle that is the Energy Shot.
As I wrote this post, I am operating on zero hours of sleep. Earlier today I had my last math tast and to put it frankly, I'm about as good at math as Amy Winehouse is at not doing drugs. I spent Alllllllllll last night studying and I owe it all to one friend: the Five-Hour Energy Shot. I know it's unhealthy and while I may be having some difficulties typing now due to my jittery hands, it was completely worth it. I was able to fully prepare myself for my test and still feel alert. I'm sure at about 2 P.M. later today I will collapse faster than David Hasselhoff drunkenly on a cheeseburger. That's not the point though. I find it interesting, as well as semi-frightening, that some company has concocted a substance that gives my body a false sense of alertness. The side effects might not be worth it though. Maybe next time I'll just try speed....
SHE STRIKES AGAIN!!!
I know we post videos of this girl constantly, but we just can't get enough of her! I can be in the worst mood and then I watch these videos and realize....well, people have bigger problems apparently. I'm no singer, but I'm pretty sure this extra-terrestrial can create some of the most ungodly sounds imaginable. Ch Ch Check out this video of her butchering the already idiotic song "Telephone" by Lady Gaga.
