I’m a Winner

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

So once upon a time there was this law school that ran a video contest for its students. And this one guy made a video and submitted it to the contest and then he won $500. And there was a reception where the school gave out free beer and someone got tipsy on a Tuesday night.

Don’t tell anyone I’m showing you the rough cut:

So, since it’s been a year since I quit the smoking, I’m trying to decide which vice I ought to eliminate from my life next. The top candidates are:

  • Diet Coke
  • Drunk texting
  • Sweets after 9pm
  • Celibacy

I actually tried skipping the Diet Coke today and lasted until I met Justin for lunch (and even that was after two cups of coffee in the morning). So which vice do y’all think I should get rid of? Something not on my list?

  1. Smart move with the “The Real Slim Shady” sound clip. PERFECT!

    Though I wish you had done another Lil Kim song in the actual show. You do her soooo well! “HOW MANY LICKS? (feat. Sisqo)”?! I just might have died!

    Apparently people have this crazy notion that I know how to rap now. I blame you and Enrico.

  2. I lol’ed at “it totally counts!” Great job!

    I vote for eliminated the celibacy first. and then maybe the sweets.

    *smooches*

    Yeah, the only thing keeping me celibate at this point is the nasty habit of having standards.

  3. er … eliminating. whatever. you know what i mean. *sigh*

  4. If you are going to document your success in giving up this vice using video and photograpic evidence, then I pick celibacy.

    If there is no video forthcoming of you working your way through the Fordam undergraduate class, then probably giving up sweets. Easier than the others I think. Just eat them every day at 8:45. You’re golden.

    My freaking video card is not letting me watch. Tomorrow I will when I’m on a better computer. Congrats.

    I finally got to watch the video. Excellent, no wonder you won. That show looks like a lot of fun.

    Thanks. It was a lot of fun.

  5. Give up Diet Coke! It’s bad for the body and the soul!

    I agree…soda in general is bad for you (water is healthier and cheaper!), but diet is even worse! Totez bad for the soul. Totez.

    Diet Coke may be bad for the body and soul, but I heard that Iced Tea is the drink of the devil and Republicans.

  6. I gave up caffeine two years ago and Diet Coke with it. I tried it recently (it was the only thing available) and it tasted pretty gross.

    I’m with Vuboq: celibacy. A little goes a loooooonnnnngggg way.

    Yeah, I’m about two more years of law school away from completely abandoning caffeine, but I hear you.

    Oh hell no, you can’t give it up now. I only gave it up because of acid reflux. As for soda being bad for the teeth and soul, I drank more Diet Coke than was necessary and my teefs are fine. As for the soul, I got rid of that a long time ago, so no worries there.
