My favorite day of the weeks is fridays THURSDAYS! Why? Well, on Sundays your whole day is ruined knowing that you have to go back to work on Monday. On Mondays the only thing you can think about is the looong week ahead of you. Tuesdays you still have the same mindset like Mondays. Wednesdays you act like some war hero that has survived through half of a war but still have another half to go. By the time that Thursday comes around, you’re mood has already increased noticeably because the weekend is finally in sight. On Friday the whole day is just shot because you’re counting down the hours until the weekend starts and you don’t get anything done. Saturdays are okay- but sometimes they’re busier than you would have ever wanted. Unfinished Christmas shopping, house cleaning, you name it- everything that you’ve been putting off smacks you upside the head on Saturdays.

So that was just a little bit of a week analysis in the life of Rika, (not to mention all the time I spend writing pointless articles like this one).

Now onto the important stuff: updates to come!

Here are the updates coming to the Nearby Future in the month of March:

• Election updates! We will update the election page weekly with poll information, standings, and stuff like that. We’ll probably even include some short clips of the candidate speeches.
• More media! We’re not just going to post text on here, we’ll be posting pictures and videos along with text!
• Presidential Debates: No, we’re not going to post videos of the presidents giving their lengthy speeches. Instead, Calister and I are going to give our own quirky opinions on the presidents and debate over them! This will be included on the election page.
• The Nearby Newsletter: All the convenience of our website packaged into a nice, neat little email that we send weekly to the people who subscribe. How does that sound? This is an idea in the works- no promises yet! Keep checking back for more on this.

So there you have it- some possible updates as they stand currently. Leave a comment about these ideas when you get the chance.
