Da blaine hath flied...

The last time I watched 3 movies back to back was with Hannah about a month before I got kicked out of the nest: Get Smart, Kung Fu Panda, and Wanted. Right before watching Wanted, mum called up to say that she had bought my plane ticket to a place halfway across the globe. Needless to say, I spent the next 2 hours freaking out in a cinema chair.

I'm a Wuss!! That line was from Ice Age 3.

Anyways, my brain got fried that day. And I swore on the grave of my ancestors (not really) never to do such a dumb thing again. 1 1/2 years later, I did the exact same thing. This time it was 7 hours of awesome brainlessness: Zombieland, (half of) The Surrogate, The Stepfather and Couple's Retreat. Don't ask me how the movies were. The last few hours have just been and will forever be a glob in my memory.

But that's part of the pure awesomeness of doing something really pointless.

Week 8

Week 8 has probably has been one of the AWFULEST week ever.

Not really. It wasn't awful at all. I just wanted to make an impression. I like making impressions. It is fun. The end.

Actually, week 8 has been a rather nice and easy going week. We are ejekly halfway through the semester which means that it is midterms. Which means that all the profs think we are stressed out, which means they all stop giving us assignments. I like.

But back to awful. Let just say technology hasn't been kind to me. And considering the fact that I work for Campus Technology...that isn't a good thing - workwise. So I was manning 2 major events in the past 2 weeks, and as I said, technology wasn't kind to me and there was absolutely nothing I could do. But I shore looked bad.

Looking bad I can handle. Because I know it ain't my fault. But now the A/V department is under scrutiny and we have to build our reputation up again. That I can handle as well. What I can't handle is how everyone's being so nice to me. Would someone gimme a scolding? Please?

Then maybe I'll stop feeling bad about how nobody is blaming me even though its not my fault.

I'm weird.

And I'm proud of it!

Small Fry

Sometimes, being a small fry at the bottom of the food chain ain't such a bad thing after all. Leave the big guys to figure it out.

October 4. Housemate's Birthday!

Last year, on October 6th, we celebrated Roommate's Birthday. This year, it's my Housemate's turn. Yippie.

She's from China. So Ms. Banana who can only speak Chinese in dire life or death situations googled "happy birthday in chinese", and wrote her the 'weirdest "birthday card" you will ever receive'.
Please ignore the ginormous shoulders in the background!

She loves granola. So birthday granola bars?Please continue to ignore the ginormous shoulders and headless neck in the background.

And just so you know, my camera is out of juice - the charger/adapter is still at my friend's house. And its rather hard to take po-vess-si-ow-nal pictures with a webcam.

Me Lah Tone In

I tell you, my melatonin is messed up. I have been waking up at...

ssshhhhhh!!!!!!! come closer, it's a secret...

...7am or earlier on a daily basis.

WHAT?!?!!

ssssshhhhh!! keep it down, if my parents hear, they'll have a heart attack.

YOU MEAN YOU ACTUALLY GET UP AT SEVEN A.M.!?!!?! EVERYDAY!?!?!?!

Yeah I do, get over it.

Believe it or not, I have mutated from a night owl to a lark (early bird). Back home, everyone slept at a decent hour. But I'd stay up late just so I'd get the whole dingdong house to myself for an hour or two. I like peace and quiet, sue me.

But over here, I have 4 people living in less than 900 square feet of earth - not to mention visitors and what-nots who drop by occasionally. Surely my introverted soul needs an hour or two of just "me time". The solution? Get up an hour or two earlier, spend some time with the BIG boss up there, a mug of oats, my textbooks, and enjoy the silence.
