i learn today that after a year of taking advance aldrabra in 8th grade than taking a IMS class dealing with measuring shoe boxs in milimeters and centimeters than doing conversions questions like kilometers to meters (-______________-), than asking why do i have to do this and have the teacher reply "your brushing up on the old stuff,it makes you smarter!" in fact makes you DUMBER because you forget all the WAAAAAAAY harder shit you did before as i found old homework for my 8th grade class and tried to do it and took me a good 4 minutes on each question.

Auto smooth feature in Flash is very useful...makes inking a lot more cleaner and easier/faster especially with a pen tab XD weee...i wonder if there's a similar option in Photoshope

After painting for so long its only now i figured out how to work the pen pressure in my pen tablet LOL XD

head hurts but Im loving every bit

If a taco and a burrito are traveling near the speed of light and collide, will the result be delicious?

The result would be an explosion large enough to destroy a small village. high speed collisions do that, whether or not they are made of Mexican food.




I now have a new life quote

"Einstein's edict: never memorize what you can look up in a book."

That our parents are beyond reasoning.

Lemme rephrase. Me and Andrew's parents.

How to make an invisible (not hidden) folder in Windows:

1. Create a new folder.
2. Press F2 to rename it, then press Alt + 255 (use the numpad for this).
3. After renaming: right click > Properties > Customize > Change Icon...
4. Pick one of the invisible icons from Shell32.DLL

You will now have an invisible folder. Works best when put on the desktop, and useful for being a black hole for miscellaneous files. Drag and drop, and watch them disappear.

"I'll just look at another page of 9gag...." - Goes on for 20 or so pages.

"I'll just finish one last quest on Skyrim..." - Spends the next 4 hours on a quest chain.

"I'll just level myself again on Dark Souls..." - Accumulates 200,000 souls, spends on upgrading random shiz, repeats process.

Etc. Etc.

Soul Eaters. Wonderful way to slowly whither into obscurity.

You have to enroll your Metrobank account to their eBanking services before you can transfer money into it from a different bank account.

-Drink lots of cold water after a drinking session. This is to dilute the alcohol in your stomach and help recover electrolytes lost.
-If you feel like throwing up do so. This will lessen the alcohol your body has to deal with. It also signals your body to start recovery.
-Pee a lot and make sure to replace the liquids lost.
-Be kind to your liver by eating while you drink so you have something to throw up later. If you cant eat, drink water. Just avoid throwing up air/bile.
-Get a hand towel and some hot water and wet your face and arms. This will help you sweat/cooldown thus helping your body flush the alcohol out/to recover faster.
-Drink hot tea. They are good at flushing toxins out. Jasmine is pretty effective.
-You will not be able to sleep deeply while your brain is dehydrated, unless you're so drunk you pass out.
-Avoid mixing drinks. NEVER drink brandy after whiskey, or sake with beer unless you want to be wasted really quick. Even cocktails can pack a wallop due to having different spirits being mixed.
-The sweeter the drink the harder the kick. This is because ethanol is derived from sugar.
-Avoid sweet foods or chocolate while drunk. The sugar will react with the ethanol already in your system and make you even more drunk.
-If you want to be hospitalized drink a chocolate frappe/latter from Starbucks after a gin session (happened to me a few years ago XD)
-If you need a quick relief from a hangover drink a bottle of beer when you wake up. It will momentarily put you back in the drunk-I-don't-feel-pain state. Just be prepared with a worse hangover after.
