The great garbage cold war comes to an end
by Jacob on Mar.27, 2005, under Social
Well, I woke up from my nap today, and found that the kitchen had been cleaned. I don’t know who did it, and I haven’t heard any discussion about it at all. It was just suddenly clean.
The great garbage cold war - day 6
by Jacob on Mar.26, 2005, under General, Social
Well, the big bag of flower has escaped the trash pile, but the extra pizza box or two hasn’t. Still no word on when my lazy roommates will give in and take their turn at taking out the garbage.
Get a Mac Buddy!

Some people just need a mac. What are they doing with that big old windows laptop?
I go into one of my classes a few minutes late. Someone had brought a power strip with a long cord and plugged it in to one of the only avaiable outlets in the room, and then the cord went up the isle a couple of rows. At first I thought it might be for something important, but as I looked closer, I found that someone was using it simply to plug in their laptop.
Please, people. If your laptop doesn’t have enough battery power to allow you to get by without hauling your power supply (and a power strip!) around with you, then you really don’t have a laptop, just a portable computer. Buy a mac! 5 hours of battery life. No power strip needed!
Great garbage cold war - day 5

People must see the can because more garbage gets stacked on. Since I took this picture, another empty bottle of juice and an empty bottle of milk have joined the war. The bag of flower is not part of the war, it was just left there, but if things get worse, it might become a casualty.
Tip for BYU students
by Jacob on Mar.24, 2005, under Education
Rent a locker. It took me too long to figure out that you can rent lockers for just a couple of bucks a semester and it is worth it. Find where you do most of your studying, and get a locker near there. Keep some food, some headphones, maybe some music in your locker. A couple of pens and some paper just incase you show up on campus without any.
