I do have a strange schedule. I have classes on only monday and wednesday, so you'd think I would try to put them close together so I get done quicker. wrong. I have a 3 hour gap in between my second to last class and my last class. That gives me lots of time to read magazines in the library, which I guess I shouldn't complain about.
Having said that, here's some interesting articles I read:
-In the UNTE reader, which is an alternative press magazine that collects awesome articles from other magazines (kinda like this post, but in print) there is a reprint of an article first published in The Believer about this crazy insane marathon that is extreme beyond all belief. It makes Iron man triatholons look like a mile fun run.
-In TIME magazine, there's this column in the back that I always read. Its called the Awsome Column. I think we're distant cousins. In the recent column, the author (forgot his name) writes about trying to get his kid into daycare. I have an especially favorite part of the column, but I'll let everyone read it for themselves.
-In psychology today on their back page, they have an analysis of president Obama using a picture of him eating an ice cream cone. I liked the part where they said "as we can see, Obama is holding the cone in his right hand. this means he is ready to sign a bill with this cone." that made me laugh.
-In Guitar World, on page 13 or so, there's a small aritcle about Nick Sterling, a kid who I went to school and Orchestra with. He's now the lead guitarist for Sebastian Bach, a famous metal singer. Thanks Nick for making all of us in the class of '08 feel like failures. Just kidding.
-This isn't a specific article, but poynter.org is an excellent website devoted to journalism and such. They have a lot of interesting articles there. trust me.
-thats all. I can't remember mcuh more interesting articles. I guess everyone's still on summer vacation, including journalists.
