Stay Balanced
Well, UNH, we have done it. With finals beginning next week, we have made it though another semester. I cannot believe I only have three semesters left here. It seems like just yesterday I was moving into Williamson Hall, nervous, excited and not knowing what to expect. I still might have to switch my major some time next year just so I can stick around a little bit longer. To the students graduating early or leaving for internships, good luck out there. I am not here to worry about the future though; that is what second semester of senior year is for. I am going to use the next few hundred words I have left this semester to share some advice.
I realize that I am only a junior and I have another year and a half left in this magical place we call college, but I cannot stress enough to make the best of your time here. It goes by fast, way too fast and I don't want to wake up one day regretting my time in college. I have friends and older brothers out in the "real world" and every time we get together they remind me, not that I necessarily need it, to enjoy every second I have here. Like the late Warren Zevon said, "enjoy every sandwich," because eventually one will be your last.
That is why I no longer complain about doing work, even when it keeps me up until the early morning hours. Right now, I'm writing this well past midnight while I'm working on a PowerPoint presentation I have to do later today. Oh boy. But I'm doing this now because I just enjoyed the crap out of my weekend, because I'm in college and I try to take advantage of every opportunity I have to make my time here memorable, even if I don't necessarily remember it. Sure procrastination can be stressful, but you got to stay balanced. For every essay you write or night you spend cramming should be another weekend night you cut back and let loose.
Cutting loose does not mean that you need to get drunk bar-hopping downtown or raging at a party, although those are great options. Find your own place and your own thing to make you happy. Whether it is simply sitting down to read a book, going for a run or to the gym, find your place and stay balanced. That is the best way to avoid the stress of college or finals week.
For myself I have a few things to balance my life. When the weather is nice, I'll be out around campus on my skateboard or tossing a baseball around with a few friends. As dedicated readers know, I also take great pleasure in drinking lots of alcohol. Nothing competes with the feeling of having a few (or a lot) of friends over and throwing back a few (or a lot) of drinks. This past weekend my roommates and I hosted a birthday party for a friend and the next morning we woke up to cake embedded in the carpet, toilet paper streamed across a bathroom and into the hall, and a couple broken dishes. It didn't bother a single one of us. Even when we found out that the culprits was the guest of honor and her friend, we just laughed it off. It didn't bother us because we threw an awesome party and everyone had a blast. We were all able to clear our minds from the stress of final projects and exams for a few hours and enjoyed college for what it is.
It is now approaching one a.m. now and I'll be up in a few hours to finish a project, but I am completely fine with that. Maybe I'm crazy for not stressing out over that type of stuff, but the way I see it is that my grades have improved every semester of college and every semester has been more fun then the last. That is not because I now spend more time studying in the library or revising papers, it is because I am more relaxed. I used to stress out over how much work I had to do in so little time, but now I take one thing at a time and just plugging away. Enjoy yourself, UNH; find your balance and live, because college will only be the best four years of your life if you allow it to be.
Stay classy, not UMassy.

I tiny, teensy love likealittle.com
By: LadyMeow
So incase you've been in outerspace for the past month, likealittle.com/unh is like twitter, facebook and flirting all in one! It's a place where you can flirt anonymously (with UNH students) and see if anyone responds. I love this site its simply hilarious, cute, and entertaining.
Things to consider though....Will the STDs here go up? How about pregnancy rates with people flirting with each other? More relationship changes on facebook? Just kidding. The possibilities are endless though. Any of you sociology majors, I'd take advantage of this and do some research. Yeah, you're welcome.
Here are my favorite 'flirts' so far:
At Lord Hall: Female, Blonde. Hey Babe, over there with a bowl on your head. Your face makes me want puppies to om nom with a fork!! omnomnomnomnom (OM NOM NOM)
At pike: Male, Brunette. we were danced last night. you were so cute. wish i could remember your name... (obviously keeping it classy at pike).
At Everywhere: Female, Redhead. you are the sexiest girl on campus. ROAR (RAWR!!)
I just love this, you get really cute ones such as:
At Kingsbury: Male, Brunette. you're always there when I am and we usually make eye contact... I'm pretty shy but I think you're really cute :-) (Dude, talk to this girl!)
At Woodsides J: Male, Black hair. He lives in an apartment building beside me and every time I walk in the building to see my friends I get big butterflies and smile so big...but only when I go past the door and I can hear his voice. Hes soo cute....I cant stop thinking about you (You know its meant to be when there's butterflies involved. Cmon now.)
At Kingsbury: Female, Black hair. You sit next to me every day. You've got the most amazing green eyes, and a pretty smile that I wish I saw more of (aww what a sweetie! This is what guys should be saying, I love it!)
Basically, I've booked marked this page and it's so nice seeing all this LOVE on campus (Maybe I'm going crazy due to this end of semester hell too). It's definitely a great distraction.
Keep it up UNH! Keep flirting :D

Also, Emily Cialdea is in charge of the UNH LAL, fucking PROPS.
Good luck with the rest of the semester and finals everyone!

UNH Bus Halloween Time Lapse
This video was posted to the blog's facebook page over a month ago, but facebook deemed it to be spam so I never got notified. I just came across this and it is pretty interesting. Big tip of the hat to the creator and I'm sorry I missed it. Check it out:
The best part is that I know a few people in this who can not only be identified, but look right into the camera. This is awesome.

The Adventures of Stan
These are the adventures of Stan. Stan is a pseudonym for one of my roommates. Last night, like any responsible college students with an apartment, we had a few friends over to celebrate Thirsty Thursday. Stan was going out the bars with a few of his recently turned 21-year-old friends. Around 12:30 this morning I get a text from Stan. It read, "Someone come get me. PLEACE" [sic]. I figured he was locked out of our Gables building so I called him only to find out that he was at the Whittemore Center bus stop. (Apparently he thought by texting me the bus would come.) I explained that the buses don't run that late and he said he'd be right back. A few minutes later he is banging on the door, yelling "Let me in, somebody let me in!" He is completely out of breath, having just sprinted from the Whit to the Gables. He sits down and claims that he is "the fastest kid on campus" and that nobody could catch him and everybody cheered him as he ran through A-Lot. (Forrest Gump style.) Although, he was very concerned about the guy with the crossbow who was trying to hunt him. Apparently this crossbow wielding man wanted to "shoot [Stan and me] in the forehead" and "one of us [had] to stand guard all night."
Now, I was pretty intoxicated when all of this was happening, but clearly I was the more sober one. I finally got him to go to bed after convincing him that there was no one with a crossbow.
And that is why you shouldn't watch The Walking Dead if you are an imaginative drunk.

Plans Taking Shape...
It's been a pretty busy week over here at Nonsensical Headquarters. Final papers, research and finals preparation aside, yesterday we had a twitter confirmation from President Huddleston that there will be a bus from Durham to NYC starting in January or February and today we had a UNH professor tell her class to "Stay classy, not UMassy." Ahh yes, my evil plan to take over UNH is finally starting to take shape. Just wait. Before you know it UNH will be under my command.
Excellent.
Anyways, if you are at all interested in President Huddleston's Twitter account (following him is worth making an account) check out this post on TNH Executive Editor Thomas Gounley's personal blog. Mr. Gounley and I are both huge fans of Huddleton's Twitter, but Tom proved this morning he really is the ultimate Huddle-Tweet analyzer.
I'm keeping this short because I need to get some work done so I can enjoy my first Thirsty Thursday in a while... and I really want to get drunk as soon as possible.
Stay classy, not UMassy.

Sporcle Challenge
I have just become aware of the Sporcle college challenge. If you don't know what Sporcle is, you are missing out. It is the best time-wasting-procrastination website on the entire interwebs... well at least the best non-pornographic website that is... cough... cough. Sporcle has hundreds of trivia quizzes ranging from sports, to movies to history and beyond. Can you name every US President or member of the Red Sox 2004 World Series team? I can. Anyways, Sporcle is running a college ranking system to see which colleges and universities are the best Sporclers. Currently Boston College is ranking 9th, BU is 14th, and UMass, That's right UMass, is ranked 24th. And I thought they were only good at being douche bags. (With exception to my dad and uncles. Sorry guys... but that was the 70s when it really was the "Zoo.")
Anyways, UNH is nowhere to be seen on the rankings. I challenge you all to make an account (make sure you add UNH as your school after creating an account!) and play a few games a night. Try naming every US President and don't stop until you can. You will learn and make UNH proud. What else are you gonna to study? Last two weeks, fuck it!
