Painful Zits

As gross as this is, we've all been here. This is normally a zit around the mouth and/or under the nose, and it stays around awhile and never quite becomes ready to pop. You put it off forever until one morning you look in the mirror to find it still unready, but you go for it anyway. The next thing you know, you are collapsed on the bathroom floor with tears welling in your eyes, and in the most miserable circumstance, the zit remains unpopped. Amis.

Late Class Cancels

Everyone knows what I'm talking about. Late class cancels. Amis. Today, I was fully introduced to the infamous late class cancel. Having already attended two early morning classes, I was just getting up from a mid-snooze nap just after lunch. My CS 202 class was scheduled for 2 p.m. in the building that happens to be the furthest from the one I live in (approx. 15 min. walk). After putting a water in the backpack and bundling up, I was ready to begin my trek in the cold and prepare for back-to-back afternoon classes (also Amis). I was no longer sleepy when the first burst of cold wind struck my ears and hands. I knew this would be an amis walk. I did it, though. 1st step complete. As I began to walk into the lab where the class was scheduled, I read a small whiteboard that read something like this, "CS 202 - No lab today. See you thursday in H.M. Comer 126 for lecture."
Not even an "I'm sorry for the inconvenience". So what do I do? I immediately begin the walk back. Thirty minutes wasted. AMIS.

Sticky Spit

First of all, everyone needs to get their mind out of the gutter. This post is about running, or jogging (silent "J?"), and if you have a filthy mind then you need to check yourself before continuing on. Sitcky Spit is a phenomenon that occurs when you are running and need to clear your mouth in order to breathe better, so naturally you turn your head to the side in mid-stride and spit. This time, however, your spit acts like it is attached to a bungee cord and comes back to hit you right in the chest. Normally this happens with a stranger nearby who is most likely the last person you would want to be around when you spit on yourself. You are then forced to either mess up your run by stopping to clean yourself off, or finish the rest with an unfortunate stain on your chest. Amis.

TV Remote Losses

Amis. There is nothing worse than walking in the house and sitting on the couch, only to find that the remote is nowhere to be found. First, you think "Amis". Then, the search begins. There are so many places the remote could be you don't even want to get up and search for it. The obvious first place look is cushion cracks. Even if you know if it isn't there, you still look. The next place is probably the floor or maybe under some pillows. After many more false hope finds, you finally resort pushing the power button on the TV. This works fine until you want to change the channel. Then the search continues again. Basically, it's a vicious cylce. Amis.
