The Beginning/Warm Up

Day 1
    "As this is your first day, you should warm up with an easy task that will only change your life a little bit. Choose one of the following options:"

Chose one of the following options? I didn't sign up for this to warm up, I signed up to change my life! Only choosing one would leave nineteen wonderfully odd things un-done. Unacceptable. I shall do all of them. I'm sure I'll regret this enthusiasm half way down the line, but again- that's what I signed up for! Below is a timetable of my achievements.

6:03 pm: Googled "press-up," found out it's pretty much a push-up. Proceeded to do one.

   Notes: ... I really need to get in shape...

6:05 pm: Turned on music, performed a strip tease in front of mirror. 

    Notes: Discovering un-known talents can sometimes be terrifying (but possibly lucrative?)

6:09 pm: Triple-tied shoelaces.

   Notes: lol

6:13 pm: Learned "chopsticks" on the piano

   Notes: I preformed this beautifully constructed and excellently played masterpiece for Alan.

6:23 pm: Told someone my middle name

   Notes: He said he didn't know my first name.

6:47 pm: Typed for 60 seconds as fast as I could, and then did the same for another 60 seconds. attempting to increase the length by three words.

   Notes: I don't think it counts if you use shorter words the second time. Whatever.

6:53 pm: We don't have roads with crosswalks for at least three miles. Instead of jaywalking in a pedestrian zone, I danced around the dorm lounge in a ridiculous fashion for about 40 seconds.

   Notes: Always remember that many rooms in this world are equipped with windows into which people can see...

6:55:07 pm: Set all (three) clocks to the right time.

   Notes: It's not hard when two of your three clocks are automatically set by a satellite.

6:57 pm: Whispered a white lie when no one was listening.

   Notes: It took me a while to think of one. I went with the standard "Of course what you're wearing doesn't make you look fat," I couldn't think of anything else.

6:59 pm: Fantasized about my partner

   Notes: I don't have a partner. So who was I fantasizing about?

7:07 pm: Searched for like five minutes until I could actually find someone with a comb (it seems brushes are superior), and combed my hair.

   Notes: My hair is too short to comb, so I figure I could change "Use a different sized comb" to "Use a comb."

7:08 pm: Said "Yo" instead of "Hello"

   Notes: I probably said it two or three other times today as well, but this one still felt special.

7:10 pm: Went on a one minute hunger strike to save the penguins.

   Notes: There were no donations, but at least I raised the awareness, right?

7:32 pm: Bookmarked a new website

   Notes: Yup... it was this one...

7:34 pm: Named my genitalia Calvin, Hobbes, and Caleb

   Notes: I had an auction- I named my genitalia after whoever won. Caleb won, paying me $1.

7:43 pm: Decided that the middle toe on my left foot is the prettiest

   Notes: I had to un-triple-knot my shoes to do so.

11:01 pm: Called my roommate and put the phone up to my left ear, rather than my normal right.

   Notes: No notes.

11:02 pm: Insulted a bug (it was dead).

   Notes: I felt bad, so I apologized to it.

11:26 pm: Tried a new sandwich filling!

   Notes: Dried mango in stale bread- not as appetizing as it found.

The first day is complete. Already, I am feeling just a little bit more meaning in my life.

p.s. My good friend Aaron has decided to join me in my endeavors. Today, he did a press-up, told someone his middle name, went on a minute-long hunger strike, and said "Yo" instead of "Hello." All in 15 minutes. Props.
