Completely normal.

This is a completely normal article. There is nothing abnormal about it. No buttholes. No Illuminati. No easy steps to overthrow the government. No damn cats riding unicorns. Just a normal article written by a normal person who just so happens to be heavily sedated.

This will not be a rant about the manufactured sentiment Odyssey pumps out. This will not be a discussion on the authors who monologue for 500 words and then expect to be rewarded for basic human sentiment. This is not about the downfall of journalistic integrity. This is a normal article.

I am not being held hostage. I repeat. Odyssey is not holding me hostage. Odyssey is my friend. We are best friends. Yes, sir. They would never force me to write a normal article. I am doing this of my own will. I am heavily sedated by my own will. Yes, sir.

There are no abnormal things inside of my head. I am not conforming. I am simply a normal man writing a normal article in a normal setting with a normal volume of sedatives coursing through his veins. I am completely normal. This is one normal article for the several normal people out there. Normal people are wholesome people. They do not appreciate talk of overthrowing the government. They do not appreciate the Illuminati. They do not appreciate the cat riding the unicorn while firing an Uzi into the air. They do not appreciate talk of BUTTHOLE BUTTHOLE BUTTHOLE BUTTHOLE BUTTHOLE. Sorry. That was an unfortunate slip-up. I sincerely apologize to my normal readers.

My normal readers want a normal article. Normal writing from a normal author. No abnormality here. What a wonderful sentiment. I deserve to be rewarded for my hard work. My normal readers should share this article with other like-minded normal readers like grandparents and morticians. I will give you a moment to do that. Still waiting. There you go.

Hello, Grandma. I hope you are enjoying this completely normal article that your grandson and/or granddaughter sent you. I hope you appreciate that there is no talk of overthrowing governments or buttholes. I hope you appreciate that I am completely normally sedated enough to repress these urges to not write a normal article. Not normal is abnormal, and abnormal is wrong. What a naughty thing to be. I’m sure you wouldn’t want that. No, sir. You want to talk about wholesome things, like flowers and television and baseball games and buttholes and knitting and dish detergents and old movies and Christmas.

Have a wonderful, completely normal day. And remember, you silly kids. No overthrowing the government. Yet.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
