We need to stop sensationalizing it, for one thing. That kind of attitude sends everyone into a tizzy. I think terrorists are like children; if we ignore them, they won't have anyone paying attention to them, and they'll stop trying so hard.
Simply put, this blog is about my adventures in college and beyond. I want to share my joys and pain, the movies and books I love, and the events I attend.

Would you rather work at a large company or a small one?
I would prefer to work at a small company, because I would like to have the chance to get to know my coworkers, rather than just being a cog in the machine.

This poster was made by Voltaira, a straight, cisgendered Deviant. I think it is beautifully done, and I'd like to share it with you, my readership.

I would like to believe that all straights and non-straights can someday believe that they are equal; hopefully, that day will be short in coming.

XKCD - Purely Statistical Edition
Lately, I've been ravenously devouring the webcomic xkcd. It's kind of like the opposite of Cyanide and Happiness, in that the stick people are extremely intelligent instead of somewhat mindless. Both are extremely funny, and somewhat explicit, so go check them out.
The other thing I've been obsessed with lately is statistics. I'm taking my second round of stats, as it's the math of choice for psychology majors like myself. I'm amazingly good at it, too, which shocks the hell out of me, because normally I'm quite terrible at math. I think I'm better at stats because the numbers actually have a meaning behind them, rather than just arbitrarily existing. When I add two and two, I want to know what significance four has, and statistics does that for me. It's like an academic high, almost--I continuously get As on my homework and tests, and my professor has noticed this. And he's recommended me to departmental honors, which makes me feel super-awesome, being that it's my first semester here.
But, enough gloating. I wanted to share some xkcd strips with you, because they make me feel happy and smart at the same time. (Oh, and to view the strips in all of their full-sized glory, just click them!)
Our professor put this one up for a giggle when we started talking about the correlation coefficient!
