I give up. 5 line sentences about things I already think about. I’m sure it was revolutionary for its time – in fact, I’m certain of it. But since I believe very much like he does, none of the book up to the halfway point seemed like anything new. It all felt like “ok, duh. Well, yeah, I’d do that. Hahaha, that’s definitely an issue for him, yeah.” No matter how short it was, I couldn’t bear the style and didn’t learn anything from it. I’m sure many of you guys’ll get more out of it, though. Good luck with this one.

It’s not hard to do this if you just fill one giant bottle with cold water. I think the trick to it is that it seems like way too much if you have 8-10 glasses of water but if it’s just one big jug, you can pace yourself with it. I actually need to start doing this again since the water really helps. You don’t eat as much and you got rid of leftover blood sugar from the amount of time you’ll spend in the bathroom.
Ok, so I’m a curious person and I like to experiment and research. Well, I worked as a night auditor for a hotel for bit and we had this guard who was itching to try out her pepperspray. Since there’s no crime in Austin, I volunteered. Now, I’ve always wanted to know what this felt like so I stepped into it. My eyes (and mouth unfortunately) were open and it was close range in an unventilated room. This… hurt. I had to be rushed to a room with a fountain where I stood for a good hour and change in front of an eye-washing station. The effects hit more than my eyes since I got some in my lungs. It kind of played out like this: Eye burnt HOT PAIN, got weak, couldn’t breathe without drinking but then I was drinking and couldn’t get air through so I’d have to stop and stand to inhale but it’d hurt and oh god I need water but now I can’t breathe and oh fuck my eyes please get this out of my eyes water in my eyes! After the first 80 minutes, I was able to open my eyes a nano-inch and let out a river of tears. I spent the next 4 hours cursing really loud, in my suit behind a desk at the hotel, ready to check in guests. I don’t think I’m going to do this again, lol.
