all my friends are superheroes (except you)

today, i learned two very valuable lessons

let the following images, however disturbing they may be, be a lesson to all of you grade 12's who will be moving into res next year.

lesson the first: NEVER kick your res lamp.
exhibit a: karwai's lamp that i...i dont even know what i did.










"uh...what do i do now?"










actually, this was the second time something of this calibre happened. this time, i didnt actually kick it. i just pulled on it too quickly, causing the lamp to pop out. the first time however, i was lying down, and i dont remember what happened, but i jumped up really quickly, and accidentally kicked the bulb right out of the socket. insano no?


lesson the second: ALWAYS wash your eating utensils immediately after each use.
exhibit b: my spoon and bowl that i hadnt washed in...i dont even know how long

DISCLAIMER: the following contains images that may not be suitable for all viewers. viewer and parental discretion is strongly advised.







its like magic!
















its like whoa!







that spoon was caked on there goodly! i shot a video of me holding the spoon, trying to whip the bowl onto the floor. it took a good few swings to get the two detached.


[edit]

so poroshat asked me if i went to unit 36 on friday. for those of you who dont know, unit 36 is just a place where a huge engineering beer guzzling party is held three times a term.

i said no and asked if she went.

she said "NO! do i look like someone who would go?"

i responded with "...do i?"
and she said "yes"

hmmm...that makes two. earlier on in the term, one of my survey group members, mike, thought the same about me. ...do i look like a party goer or some sort of stereotypical beer-owning-party-animal-engineer? i think not. thats dissapointing, the fact that somehow, i am able to project that kind of image of myself. im confused? where are people getting these ideas of me? then again, it is only two out of the nth people i have met here, so i guess its nothing to worry about.

speaking of other people and their ideas of me...today's service really spoke to me. it was about pride. the speaker put up a number of slides at the end with two sections, "prideful people" and "humble people" contrasting the difference between the two. we were asked to look inside ourselves and see which one we were on each slide. lets just say...i didn't score too well.
that (among a myriad of other things) is one thing i really need to work on. its going to be more than just a "new years resolution"...but then again, isnt that how i always think? the whole it-will-work-out-this-time-i-promise mentality?
sigh.

$0.12 <--- remaining meal plan balance.

on a side note, windows media player is really bugging me. i have this nice extravagant play list consisting of all the punk songs i own (and dont own...im such a sell out...sorry paul) but the shuffle option is the worst evar! it just plays the same few songs over and over again! and on top of that, all the names have been switched around. stupid media player. (ok, not ALL the names, but anything more than zero is annoying enough)

lastly, finals are coming up freakishly close. and then its break time! and it wont be like highschool Christmas breaks where you have work to worry about. the terms over! :D but that means we have to endure exams first.

physics, you know i still love you. why must you betray me like that?
you played with my heart, got lost in the game...you're not that innocent.

*tear*

goodnight everyone
