experiment november

november is coming and i have been so busy worrying about school i forgot to leave time for experiments. experiments are the spice of life. so back by popular demand i will be performing some experiments in november.

here is what we have to look forward to.

experiment 1: participate in 2 case competitions, one weekend after another.
case competitions, if you don't know, entail 24 hours of near death experiences. you get a case at 7pm, work with a team, stay up the entire night solving the problem of the case, then present it at 7am the next day. if you advance to finals it is kind of awesome because the top 3 teams get money prizes (out of the 4 that go to finals), however it is also kind of horrible because that means that you have to stay awake till 4pm (to go to finals) instead of being able to go to sleep by noon and then when you end up finishing fourth after all that you kind of want to cry/die/eat everything in sight. i did one last weekend and i am still recovering. can't wait to find out what this feels like times two.

experiment 2:stay up all night two weekends in a row...without caffeine. for the last case competition i had 4 energy drinks, 2 cups of coffee, a diet coke, and 1 breakfast taco within the last 12 hours of my marathon. i felt like my heart was pounding out of my chest during my second presentation but i thought that was mostly nerves. someone later told me it is most likely from too much caffeine. so i'm going to cut that evil little monkey out of my life again.

















experiment 3: visit home for the first time ever. i think i am the only one that has never lived far enough away from home to visit for thanksgiving and then go back to life. yum turkey stuffing barkley.

results november. coming soon.
