had a weird moment where the word 'rhinoceros' stopped making sense to me. it felt made up. like someone took 'rhino' and added to it to create their own word. i think it's because my brain tried to pronounce 'ceros' as zeroes but with a c instead

on multiple occasions, i've almost run into people. i'll like, see them well in advance and begin to steer myself to the right or left in order to avoid bumping into them, but i guess my steering is too gradual, and we end up almost bumping into each other anyways

it's supposedly the first day of spring. there's another "nor'easter" hitting the are again. that's basically a winter storm, but i don't understand why they call them by that name. i wish they would stop because it is both unsightly and makes no sense. it supposed to snow through tomorrow evening. there was some snow and sleet today. someone tried telling me that frozen rain was hail, but i don't think that's true. snow is when the water crystallizes. rain is, well, rain. sleet it ice, which is what frozen rain is. hail implies, at least to me, a larger piece of ice, larger than a raindrop. therefore i don't think the frozen rain was hail. i've seen hail. that wasn't hail

why do schools love talking about their squirrels? squirrels are just rats, fyi. with fluffy tails. but it seems every college and univeristy loves to talk about their squirrels. like, "oh x-college squirrels are so ....", but they're just rodents. they're the same everywhere. sure some schools have special squirrels, like the white one that lives at the university of texas in austin, but even then they'll talk about their squirrels in general. i just think they're dumb creatures that get way too much credit

there are bombs going off in austin right now. like, a serial bomber is leaving explosive packages around the city. i feel that most people don't really care, in the sense that they're not too worried for their safety. regardless, i hope my friends are safe
