This is the last No-shave November update because November will end in a few days. So here's the final pic:
So that's one month of growth. I'll continue to let it grow out until Christmas just to see if I can get a decent length on it, but won't post pictures until finals.
It's been a fun Thanksgiving break. I went to a friend's house and enjoyed the wonders of homecooking after being on cafeteria food for so long. I almost dread to go back, simply because of the food. Got the paper done, just one more to go. Now I just have one or two more tests before finals. I'm almost done, just a little bit farther. Almost... There.... *dies*
Ehem. Anyways, pray for me in my twilight hours at college. I'll need all the help I can get.
I'm starting to feel the pressure as my assignments begin to build on each other as we are nearing the end of the semester. Quick update on tests gotten back thus far OT: A- Microeconomics: C Info systems: B Accounting: A (not a perfect 100 this time)
Just waiting on my other OT test, other Microecon test, Biz Law test, and then I have another Accounting test tomorrow. Then I just have to wait for a few pre-final tests and then finals. yay.
For this thanksgiving, I am returning to the House of Larry Sanders as NH is a bit far to get to from here. Although, I recently found out that I could've had a round trip for thanksgiving, had I know anyone was actually driving back to NH. Now for a Facial Update
Now, WWI as a bar fight: Germany, Austria and Italy are standing together in the middle of a pub when Serbia bumps into Austria and spills Austria's pint. Austria demands Serbia buy it a complete new suit because there are splashes on its trouser leg. Germany expresses its support for Austria's point of view. Britain recommends that everyone calm down a bit.
Serbia points out that it can't afford a whole suit, but offers to pay for the cleaning of Austria's trousers. Russia and Serbia look at Austria. Austria asks Serbia who it's looking at. Russia suggests that Austria should leave its little brother alone. Austria inquires as to whose army will assist Russia in compelling it to do so. Germany appeals to Britain that France has been looking at it, and that this is sufficiently out of order that Britain should not intervene. Britain replies that France can look at who it wants to, that Britain is looking at Germany too, and what is Germany going to do about it?
Germany tells Russia to stop looking at Austria, or Germany will render Russia incapable of such action. Britain and France ask Germany whether it's looking at Belgium. Turkey and Germany go off into a corner and whisper.
When they come back, Turkey makes a show of not looking at anyone. Germany rolls up its sleeves, looks at France, and punches Belgium. France and Britain punch Germany. Austria punches Russia. Germany punches Britain and France with one hand and Russia with the other. Russia throws a punch at Germany, but misses and nearly falls over. Japan calls over from the other side of the room that it's on Britain's side, but stays there. Italy surprises everyone by punching Austria.
Austria punches Turkey, and gets punched back. There are no hard feelings because Britain made Austria do it. France gets thrown through a plate glass window, but gets back up and carries on fighting. Russia gets thrown through another one, gets knocked out, suffers brain damage, and wakes up with a complete personality change. Italy throws a punch at Austria and misses, but Austria falls over anyway.
Italy raises both fists in the air and runs round the room chanting. America waits till Germany is about to fall over from sustained punching from Britain and France, then walks over and smashes it with a barstool, then pretends it won the fight all by itself. By now all the chairs are broken and the big mirror over the bar is shattered. Britain, France and America agree that Germany threw the first punch, so the whole thing is Germany's fault. While Germany is still unconscious, they go through its pockets, steal its wallet, and buy drinks for all their friends.
Now for Cat pwnage
Now to say goodbye, pray for me, test and paper this week. Peace off.
So I wake up tuesday with a strange feeling in my back as if something is out of place. I pay it no mind and continue through my day. I go to a Kenpo Karate session with a friend, and the next thing I know my back is rebelling. The next day, I am in so much pain that I have to stay in bed all day doing homework and playing video games, and eating Army MREs for my meals. I'm better now. Then Friday night, I bite my tongue a new one while chewing gum. Now I have this larger than normal area of numb taste buds. Also, I feel like I did not do so well on my Biz law test. So yeah, lotta pain this week.
Now for facial update that is explained by the above paragraph
I know. I look like someone at a line-up.
A nice thing that happened is that I had a wonderful story game session with my friends tonight. My story was tied for "Most Epic" with another that was essentially a sequel. I'll post them up in another post or something once they are transcribed.
Let it be known that if you have long hair and try to modify any part of it, you will have had to have started when it was short. Short version: messed up, decided to buzz. My Mullet will return, in a few months.
Sorry for the late post. This has been a busy weekend.
Another test has gone by, just two more to go. I also have a lot of papers to do this month. Thankfully, only two of them are of any considerable length. Please pray that I get those two done before their due date. Aside from that, not much else to say academically. This weekend was "Fall Back", a sort of weekend of fun stuff that has nothing to do with DST. They had a street fair Friday, as well as Men's Open Dorms and two showings of Inception. That movie, by the way, is one of the best I've seen. I give it two thumbs up, and a monkey wrench. If you haven't seen it, you should.
Also, I'd like to start a discussion based on the following video.
Now, consider this video. Does any of this ring true? Do we just blast through prayer time at meals just to fill our gullies? Do we really take prayer seriously? Are we truly thankful for the food we eat? Consider these questions with the video, post a comment in regards to that, then click the link at the end of this post.

Here's the first one. 17 hours after initial shave
