Last Sunday, I came down with a cold. Several days later, I had pounding headaches and body aches. This weekend, I talked to my dad, who thankfully is a doctor, and he told me I had the flu. I said, "Huh...that would explain why I felt like absolute shit."
This past week has been hell. Besides having the flu on the week of two exams, I have to now play catch-up this week with all the work I missed in addition to studying for two more exams.
Needless to say, all of this is kind of putting my work into making episodes on the back burner. I will gladly get working on Episode 15 when I have enough free time, but life has become frustrating and so busy that it's hard to make it a priority. But I'll provide an update when things cool down several notches.

Hmmm....
So I know I said that I should continue updating this thing on a more regular basis. However, I really have no idea what I could say that would be even remotely interesting to you guys (other than "NEW POLKAMONS" but that would be flat out lying to your faces). I mean, my life isn't exacting boring, but it's not filled with the kind of stuff that I either want to share or that you'd enjoy reading.
That being said, I will use my posts in between Polkamons updates to do what I've been kind of doing already. And that is posting random videos by other people because I think they're good.
Today's another hefty dose of common sense from Phillip DeFranco. And yes, I know that you could just as easily subscribe to him yourself and find out on your own when his videos come out. But doing this makes me feel at least somewhat important until I can crank out another video of my own:

I Really Need to Update This Thing More Often
Even though I'm pressed for time and privacy making videos, I really need to make more frequent posts on here so that you all know I'm not abandoning this entirely (or at least that I'm not dead).
I just got back from a weekend trip to visit some friends at another college. Twas quite exciting, as three people I drove up with stayed in the cramped quarters of someone's dorm while I chilled at my friend's two-story house. Granted, I still had to sleep on the floor, but at least she took the liberty of vacuuming before I got there, so I didn't get terribly sick. In hindsight, I probably should have made more of an effort to find a sleeping bag or air mattress like she told me a week before I got there, but whatever.
To calm the minds of many of you reading this, I still intend to make Episode 15 whenever I get the chance. Even though I feel like a broken record for repeating this, I get the feeling that some of you are getting antsy and a lot of others might have given up on me, just as last year when my fall semester began. Fear not! I have a good amount of the script written for my take on "Battle Aboard the St. Anne." Not that I'm disclosing any info on that =P
I don't even know what to say about this. Maybe I should have a caption contest like Little Kuriboh.
And of course, this cute little guy makes its debut in this episode.
I might get some time to get some recording done around early-mid October, but I'm not promising. Which of course, means that I'll either put it out that weekend with no warning or I'll have to wait another 2-3 months. Regardless, I'm not putting a set timetable on this. Schedules tend to disappoint people when they're not met, and most of you know that I'm absolutely terrible at sticking to a strict schedule. So in other words, expect Episode 15 whenever

ISFJ FTW LOLZ
Interestingly, my computer science class required everyone to take a personality test online. Since the course projects revolve heavily on group work, my professor figured that it'd be ideal to assign partners based on compatible personalities. After taking the test, I found my results to be quite...intriguing. And of course, what better people to share my personality with than a bunch of folks on the internet whom I've never even met?
Introverted Sensing Feeling Judging
ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their "need to be needed." In extreme cases, this need is so strong that standard give-and-take relationships are deeply unsatisfying to them; however, most ISFJs find more than enough with which to occupy themselves within the framework of a normal life. (Since ISFJs, like all SJs, are very much bound by the prevailing social conventions, their form of "service" is likely to exclude any elements of moral or political controversy; they specialize in the local, the personal, and the practical.)
That, of course, is just a small snippet of what I'm all about. If there are any of you who actually care to read the rest of this, click the following link:

And if you want to take the test yourself, click here:

After you take the test, you can see what your 4 letters mean on http://typelogic.com and see what type of personality you have. Make your friends take it and see how accurate the results are. They make for some VERY amusing conversation!

Jon Stewart Is My F*cking Hero!
I'm not one to put many political rantings on my blog, but Jon Stewart just hits the nail on the head SO well sometimes that this is one of those things I just have to share:
These next few campaign months are going to be AWESOME! And by awesome, I mean ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! And absolutely terrible is awesome because it gives this hilarious man and his staff more material to work with.

So Busy, So Tired
I've been running around almost non-stop since I got here. Thank God for my bike (insert Misty voice), because my classes are so spread out, and it's damn near impossible to walk from one side of campus to the other and make it on time. Plus, the exercise doesn't hurt either, since I think this summer has caused me to become grossly out of shape.
But now, I've finally gotten my schedule sorted out, and everything else is slowly falling into place. Not that I'm going to miraculously have a lot of free time soon, but at least that mental exhaustion of figuring everything out is almost completely gone now.
