      • Matt Halm says:

        Hm, you’re right. It was set on GMT for some reason. Should be fixed now, though I guess it doesn’t retroactively fix them so all of the previous posts will appear to be from students pulling all-nighters to finish the first homework assignment… a week before it’s due.

Yeah top that. I am a 2nd yr and gotta say my first year… it was a blur, Butt! yes everyone has one at birth, but I will tell yall what I learned my first year at WSU. Beer b4 Liquor, never been sicker. Liquor b4 beer, ur in teh clear . Hokay so, my favorite colour is rainbow because hell; why not? Moving on. My major would be Comp. Sci. yes its gonna be hella tight even though “hella” is not a word though children uses it like they use funner though apparently the word “funner” is a word(no red line under) correct me if I’m wrong.
    I’m hoping no one writes as hella long as me, cuz I feel like I am getting an achievement point.
    Have you ever been told that you don’t need weed bcuz ur chilled all the time? oar! you use them for rowing boats. or been told ur a bro 6 or 7 time in a convo? Cool we have something in common.
    Gotta say, this assignment is pretty sweet because there is really no limit to what you can do to express yourself.
    Is this too long? No? okay so, I like to travel. But, I’ve yet to leave the continent which sucks cuz I want to leave the continent. and I guess explore or go on some crazy adventure with Indiana Jones.
    I was deprived on falsely believing that Santa was real, which really saved sometime. fyi
    I love to eat exotic foods and really hoping to try some deep fried tarantula. Why?! BECAUSE YOUTUBE MADE IT LOOK GOOD! and I was hungry at the time.
    Why did I look up on eating tarantula?? Becuz like everyone else I’ve met, I use youtube to… download free music, watch hilarious ass videos, and other stuff. Bet a couple troopers reading this is like “OMG” why is the guy using words like “ass”, or “hell” or “damn”?? wait I didn’t use that last one. until now.
    To summarize the long ass response; my name is at the top left. I like rainbows, they taste like skittles. My mascot is controversial(gee I wonder why?). I’ve had my share of drunken nights. I am a computer geek. I like to go places and I like to eat good food. Oh did I mention I’m a smartass? JK! Hope you enjoyed reading this you weirdo.
