Day 125: I love Puppies.

Puppies are cute. That’s an undeniable fact. By the logic of that previous statement, I just had to make a puppy (not even sure if its a puppy or a dog) my picture of the day, after I encountered it on library walk. After my first class, me, Jessica, and Adam went to library walk for UCSD Cares week, where we encountered PUPPIES to pet. It needed a 1 dollar donation which I didn’t have, but I was satisfied enough looking to the puppy’s eyes….but Jessica ended up petting the puppy after paying. Soft, and cuddly! PUPPIES <24.

Afterwards, I met up with Geetha at Pines, and after failing to see anything edible there, we proceeded to Round Table for lunch. After a snack at Yogurt World, we went to class, and she ultimately left me. We reunited at my next class, and we proceeded back to her place and then the ICRA office for my office hours. I grabbed a quick dinner at Goodies as I started cleaning up several pillars of the ICRA office. After my final class of the day, I went to Lauren’s apartment to talk about housing, among other things/issues. I went back to my apartment to watch the first Republican Debate for 2012 (Ron Paul totally won). Me and Amul put up posters next Thursday’s PAW event, and I ended the night NOT studying for once. Joy.

On May 5th, 1955: Over 500,000 people in the UK have now received the Salk polio vaccine and since the death of Birmingham City full back Jeff Hall from Polio last month, there has been a sharp rise in the demand for the vaccine but local health departments have run out and now ordered an extra million doses. We take it for granted that our children and grandchildren are safe from Polio, but this is only because governments, scientists and the people worked together that Polio is now no longer the threat it was. What a sigh of relief.

A new national poll indicates the race for the Republican presidential nomination remains wide-open, with none of the probable or potential GOP White House contenders above 20 percent, according to a new national poll. The poll also indicates President Barack Obama is ahead of all probable and possible GOP candidates tested in hypothetical general election matchups, but the person who comes closest to Obama may surprise you. Who does best against Obama? Paul. The congressman from Texas, who also ran as a libertarian candidate for president in 1988 and who is well liked by many in the tea party movement, trails the president by only seven points (52 to 45 percent) in a hypothetical general election showdown. Huckabee trails by eight points, with Romney down 11 points to Obama.
