Ergh. My sinuses are blocked up on one side of my face, which has now become very puffy just on the right side. I thought I was getting a cold but now I am thinking that I am just suffering from really bad allergies. Allergic rhinitis? I don’t know. Codral isn’t helping.

“Our crazy selves are living with each other and perpetuating an epidemic of disconnection. Let’s live with each other one breath at a time.”

september challenge
From this Thursday, I am going to try being vegan for the whole month of September. I will be using http://veganeasy.org/ as a helpful guide for meal plans.
I haven’t eaten red meat (ie mammals) since the start of 2008 (but I still have eaten chicken and fish regularly). I stopped eating red meat for two reasons. The first reason was that I realised that I hated the taste of red meat. I...

theyuniversity:
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT the ONLY method to improve your reading comprehension skills for the SAT.

I need sleep. Tutorial presentation tomorrow on why astronauts develop orthostatic intolerance after returning from spaceflight....

Dear all of my science lecturers,
No, I did not take physics in highschool.
And no, I have not taken a mathematics unit at university because I am not required to for my science course.

Thank you

So in my quest for finding out the density of blood for my physiology lab report, I accidentally ended up at this website:
http://www.dandydesigns.org/index.html
It’s a site written by an atheist who turned religious when he became a scientist.
