A Typical Morning for Mike Melvin (more or less)

Wake up at 5:00 AM

Toss and turn until the alarm goes off at 5:30AM

Brush Teeth

Step in shower and realize you still have socks on.

Step out of shower, take socks off

Step back in.

Get dressed, then undressed because I forget to put long John's on.

Open workout bag and "flinch from the stench."

Put clothes and shoes in bag

Get books together and put in bag along with laptop.

Go out and start car in 13 degree weather while the snow is blowing a billion miles an hour (not over exaggerating)

Forget water bottle.

Go back for water bottle

Drive groggily to school and on the way pass at least 3 hookers and a drug dealer (Definitely not sesame street or Mr Rogers Neigborhood. Although, I did see a guy in a sweater this morning).

Sit in car for 20 minutes until school opens up.

Walk 5-10 mins. to the ET building while the billion mph winds are knocking my head off (depending on how tired I am....and how many things I forget things in car and have to go back).

Laugh at the guy who just slipped on ice

Walk in building and wait for doors to open to basement.

Play sudoku while waiting (nerdy, eh?)<-----(Canadian nerd, eh?!)

Plug in Computer, peripherals, etc.

Reminisce about the guy who fell on ground and laugh again.

Stop laughing because the guy just walked passed me. (this is usually my luck)
Log on, prepare for finals, get distracted by facebook and stumbleupon, start putting together finals, facebook again, draw on Paint

Holiday Spirit (No alcoholics, not spirits)

I was listening to the radio this morning and a woman came on the air and told a simple, but heart-felt story of a good citizen. Ten minutes before calling the station, she pulled up to the drive-thru window of a local Starbucks and as she was getting money out of her wallet the cashier told her that the person in the car ahead of her had paid for her whole breakfast and was told to tell her, "Merry Christmas." My idea of this is simple, why not make a day in December a giving day for you? Pay for someone else at a drive-thru just for the sake of being generous.

Who knows, maybe it will catch on and the world will be a better place.

My Favorite Motivational Speech Ever

Tony D'Amato in Any Given SundaySEARCH ON YOUTUBE

I don't know what to say, really. Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives. All comes down to today, and either, we heal as a team, or we're gonna crumble. Inch by inch, play by play. Until we're finished. We're in hell right now, gentlemen. Believe me. And, we can stay here, get the shit kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell... one inch at a time. Now I can't do it for ya, I'm too old. I look around, I see these young faces and I think, I mean, I've made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make. I, uh, I've pissed away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who's ever loved me. And lately, I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror. You know, when you get old, in life, things get taken from you. I mean, that's... that's... that's a part of life. But, you only learn that when you start losin' stuff. You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when add up all those inches, that's gonna make the fucking difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying! I'll tell you this, in any fight it's the guy whose willing to die whose gonna win that inch. And I know, if I'm gonna have any life anymore it's because I'm still willing to fight and die for that inch, because that's what living is, the six inches in front of your face. Now I can't make you do it. You've got to look at the guy next to you, look into his eyes. Now I think ya going to see a guy who will go that inch with you. Your gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team, because he knows when it comes down to it your gonna do the same for him. That's a team, gentlemen, and either, we heal, now, as a team, or we will die as individuals. That's football guys, that's all it is. Now, what are you gonna do?

Stop means Stop.

Noticed that a lot of people do not know what a stop sign is. What I mean is that many do not know that a stop sign on a school bus is still a stop sign. I am not the police and I cannot arrest you, but it's damn common sense. Even if you're on the opposite side of the road, you HAVE to stop. It's the law. And if it wasn't it is still a must. If a little kid jumps in front of your car when the bus' stop sign is up and you hit him or her, you will definitely go to prison. Not to mention you will have that on your conscience for a very long time.

In conclusion, red stop sign on bus means stop, not go around.

I Miss You (Punk Rock)

I have noticed that I haven't heard some of my favorite childhood bands in sometime. I thought it was just a hiatus from some of the most popular bands or some of them breaking up i.e. Blink 182, Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Yellowcard, New Found Glory, My Chemical Romance, Sum 41, Switchfoot, Nine Days, etc. WTF has happened to the future of punk rock?! Are we so dull that we have to accept the age of a lot of this new crap?

Of course, Blink 182 and a lot of them are back, but where is there chance to shine again? I want to hear some quality old-school punk. Not old-school punk bands trying to catch up with the new age stuff.

Old People on the Open Road

If your vision is becoming impaired, your boobs are sagging (guy or girl), and you have the urge to watch the Golden Girls or Antique Roadshow, you may be old.


I am tired of waiting behind vehicles containing old people for a number of reasons. The first reason is that they move slower than a fat guy towards the salad bar. No one wants to be behind a vehicle that goes 35 in a 55. Yes, the speed is a MAX, but by the hair of Justin Bieber, treat the speed limit as an expectation! This is a time where you can act like you have a place to go. You're old, you're gonna die soon, get to your destination quicker because time is ticking down.


Old people also have a way of turning when they're not supposed to. Whether it is because they don't know what color the light is, or the fact that their beat-up Oldsmobile react to the gas pedal...I don't know. I do know that 'turn left on arrow only' dictates that you can, in fact, TURN LEFT ON ARROW! Also, do not crowd the intersection when the light is red; trust me, people don't like that. Just remember: Red, stop-Green, go.


Furthermore, one parking space is enough. The lines are there to show you that that is where your car is supposed to be. Even though no one else is in the parking lot during Denny's breakfast, you do not own the lot. You're like a drunk person who can't walk a straight line, a cop should arrest you. Better yet, I am going to citizens arrest you if I see it again. Officer Mike Melvin is on patrol!


In conclusion, old people, give up your licenses please! For the sake of your grandchildren, put down the car keys and pick up the remote and watch some Bonanza. If you need to get somewhere, use the senior citizen cab.

Morning Meat!

Literally! Wake up to bacon in the morning with this awesome "alarm clock." Put a frozen strip of bacon in there before you go to bed and ten minutes before your designated alarm time it begins making bacon. No alarm sounds, just bacon. Bacccccooooonnnn.

I see this going one of two ways: I will either hate bacon because it wakes me up, or I will love it and decide to hit snooze a hundred times for more bacon.

Movie Theater Food

Am I the only one out there that sees a definite problem in movie theater food? Why is it that the one place where you should stay quiet has the loudest food?! Seriously, look at this list:

• popcorn
• Peanuts
• Cracker Jacks
• Nachos
• Potato Chips
• sticky candy that makes you smack your lips
• Old people hard candy
• anything in a bag that ruffles
• Soda that makes the "The soda is gone, but I am going to drink until the bottom of my cup has a hole in it" sound.

International Raccoon Appreciation Day!

So, according to EarthCalendar.net, today is International Raccoon Appreciation Day! So grab your raccoons and instead of killing it and eating eat, feed it and hug it. Even if that means having your face mauled off, do it for the raccoons! Love thy neighbor, even if they're a pack of wild, rabies-infested raccoons.

Relationship Advice

I have been seeing a lot of new trends with relationship statuses in Facebook lately.
Here is some advice for all of those people:

• If you are constantly changing your status from in a relationship to single, lay off dating for a while
• "it's complicated" actually translates into, "I really think it's not working out and I want to let him know that he is on the verge of being kicked curb if he doesn't keep his lazy ass straight."
• Changing your status to single every week so girls/guys KNOW that you are single will keep you single.
• All the single ladies, all the single ladies....don't "marry" your best girlfriend.
• Open relationship? Sounds like a hooker to me.
• It is rather annoying to see bitchy statuses that are conspicuously directed towards someone. No Facebook fights.
• if you're in a relationship and you're significant other posts "single," you've just been Facebook dumped, congratulations!

If you are randomly trying to meet people on Facebook just to date, you're a creeper. Creepers are frowned upon in the social networking world. In the real world it would be called stalking--and yes, that's illegal.

My tips on weight training

*Note-this is my opinion of what to do.

Whey Protein-First off, if you do not currently implement whey protein into your workout, start. I usually drink Super Advanced Whey Protein: Cookies and Cream, because it has the best flavor in my opinion. One scoop with milk (or water). Two scoops if you are looking to gain weight. It tastes like it should be a dessert. I suggest taking whey protein constantly as a meal replacement. Once in the morning, once in the afternoon, and once in the evening. DO NOT ONLY DRINK WHEY PROTEIN FOR MEALS You should have at least 6 small meals a day with whey protein being 3 of them.

Creatine-This is really for preference. I would suggest taking it though, just so it can give you energy and keep your muscles rejuvenated so you can lift a little bit longer each day. Take it once in the morning, once before your workout, and once after your workout if you like. *A lot of people have heard to take it before bed, but be warned, it may keep you awake.

Workout-I prefer isolation in contrast to upper body/lower body splits. I only have 4 days a week to workout so I try to isolate each muscle as much as possible. Here is a great site to help you plan a 4-day split, . Here is my split:

Monday-Chest/Biceps with cardio

Tuesday-Triceps/upper back/abs with cardio

Wednesday-Legs/Thighs/Lower back/Glutes with cardio

Thursday-Shoulders/abs with cardio


This is my personal split. Do not be afraid to change this up and make it your own.


SWITCH UP ROUTINE EVERY FEW WEEKS FOR MUSCLE CONFUSION AND BETTER GAINS.

Chivalry lives!

Melvin's Chivalry definition:
Treating a girl with respect and honoring them, and not expecting to get anything in return.

I have been hearing for quite some time that chivalry is dead. I don't believe it one bit. I think there are tons of guys out their that are chivalric. It is just modern chivalry. Do you women want us to be so chivalric that we cut off our left ear and give it to you for a sign of love like Van Gogh? If you do, then chivalry is dead...to you.

As a man, here is a short list of what I do to be chivalric (among many other things):

• Opening doors
• Walking girls to there cars if they want me to
• Comforting them when they are sad
• Listening to them

In defense of the women, men, you can still open a door for a woman and still treat her as your equal. If you are holding a door open for a girl while you walk through first, at least you are being half-chivalric.

In contrast, women, you can at least seem grateful for some chivalry. A lot of guys want to know that their chivalry isn't going unnoticed. And if you're a girl and you feel that having a door opened for you is demeaning your equality, you're wrong. On the contrary, it actually is a sign of respect and honor.



*short side note: joking around with a girl and teasing them a little is not mean or cruel. In some ways, it is flirting.

Who was your teenage crush (teenage dream)?

I was listening to Z99.5 WZPL radio this morning and they were discussing a Katie Perry song called, Teenage Dream. They had callers phone-in and tell them who their teenage crush was then they would discuss why.

This is where I ask you good people, who was/are your teenage crushes?

How to be an asshole on World of Warcraft

Step 1: In raids and dungeons always grab the things that you don't need. Never pass it on to someone who actually does need the item.

Step 2: Whilst being a level 80 rogue, sneak up on people in stealth mode, wait until they are about to kill an elite, kill them, then rape their mangled bodies.

Step 3: Tell a beginner that you will trade them gold for their best item. When they trade you the item, don't give them gold.

Step 4: Kill all of the quest monsters before the noobs can get to them.

Step 5: When a player is ready to turn in a quest, commit homicide and kill that bastard quest giver so he can't turn it in!

Step 6: Keep sending higher levels quest invites.

Step 7: Spam people with whispers and tag along while they are doing quests.

Step 8: Instead of killing noobs, put useless curses and debuffs on them so it just irritates them.

Step 9: Kill hunter's pets!

Step 10: Leave a raid group when you are half way through!

The Facts about Poop

Disclaimer: As many of my friends know, one of my favorite words to say is poop, and interesting as it is, I will continue to use it when I see fit. This is one post that I will use it a lot.

Anyways, the other day I was sitting in class with one of my friends ignoring the professor and searching random sites when suddenly we stumbled upon a cool little site about poop. Yes, poop. It has comical graphics (none that are explicit), cool facts, frequently used poop slang, and interesting FAQs. The site is none other than, SmellyPoop.com. 

Let's just say this site is the $^%*. Have you ever pondered why dogs eat pooped? What causes green poop? Or even if there are people who eat poop? The site answers all of this and more!
