Taking a Mindless Break

I'm reading all about Sayyid Qutb, Ayman al-Zawahiri, the Ayatollah Khomeini, and Osama bin-Laden again. Only this time I'm doing the readings for my journalism class, not for my Middle Eastern studies class. I'm stuck between thinking that the readings are a waste of time because I'm not learning anything new, and wanting to read anyway because I'll need to know these specific readings in order to participate in tomorrow's class discussions. I'm never one of those people who can participate in class without doing the readings.

In the meantime, I'm slacking off with some fun items:

For those of you who have/like/know about Neopets...

Not really sure what it is, but I like Neopets in general, so whichever pet this egg hatches into should be fine with me.
