Aloha! Let's do this...
Ah crap, accidentally hit "back" while typing in this space. Yay...
Anyhoo, was playing Hockey on Friday night at the YMCA. It turned out to be $8 I think for each person to rent the thing out. All in all it was pretty cool, although somewhat disheartening to hafta play around people who could skate forwards AND backwards AND be able to stop... weee! Also, note to self, don't just think it's a friggin good idea to warm up, actually warm up!
After that I saw Looney Tunes: Back in Action. It held a valuable lesson as whenever something doesn't make sense, just say, meh, it's Looney Tunes. How was that valuable or a lesson you say? *throws Flashbang*
After viewing the majority of the blogs theres been a parade of complaining about University. Well, my part is going to stop. It's definitely put up or shut up time and despite everyone knowing this the excuse machine or the "please pity me" machine is running overtime. Of course, when hitting post secondary it's definitely not an easy transition and its not so fun to think, "well this does/could decides the rest of my adult life as I know it, and it would sure suck to blow it."
Well, that 'lil spiel will be it for now seeing as I need to attend to other matters. Like assigning you 50 pushups. Good day.

Aloha! It's been a while, but eh, oh well! Alright, let's go!
Not really gonna type about what I've been doing, it hasn't been too much. I guess I can mention the evil of Gunbound. Stupid game, got me hooked for a little while and really helped me piss away my time. Video games are cool, but the rewards you get from a game pale in comparison from the rewards of... anything else important. I've pretty much stopped playing it, likely because I found myself sitting Monday morning at 2 a.m. trying to finish an essay due that day. Friggin Gunbound, but on a side note Delia finds the avatars for the girl character really cute!
Hmm, here's a quick story. Me and Del weren't sure of what to get for Vday, sooooo I fatefully actually walked into SUB at the University and saw they had Oiler tickets for $40. Now, usually these seats are near $50 so I thought sweet!! I run the idea by Del and it's a go, unfortunately the ideal game (vs. Vancouver on Sat) was sold out, and it's a shame because I watched it and it was really exciting. The backup game was Monday, vs. Detroit. Welll that turned out not so cool, because there were only three tickets left, one with seat 8, 9, and 11. So I grab the tickets with seat number 8 and 9, but of course a few days later when I show Del she geniously points out this out to me:
Ticket 1: Seat 8, Section 208, ROW 36
Ticket 2: Seat 9, Section 209, ROW 37
THE FRIGGIN TICKETS AREN'T IN THE SAME FRIGGIN ROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGHHHHHH!
I head back to SUB a few days later to try to exchange tickets. First, this guy says, well it's tough to exchange these tickets, as this game is tomorrow. Um.. dude, the game is on Monday, today is Friday. Then he tries to give me an analysis that these tickets are better than trying to get the other Detroit game tickets, as we might be seperated by a seat if someone decides to stay and sit there. I or Delia could in front of the other, and that would make it really damn easy to talk! In the end, a nice lady decides I can exchange them and I decide the best day is Friday, March 19th against the Nashville Predators. That one should be good providing we're still in the playoff race, although we haven't beaten them yet. I also expect it to be fight filled, hehe.
Well, the first day back after Reading week blew. I get my Chem term test #1 and I totally ate it. Like "aww feel better your'll do better (no your not retard!) bad." I haven't gotten this bad on an important exam for a long time. My other marks are pretty good, Econ and Physics being relatively high, but then again the distribution of the marks are in the high end. As for Stats, well I got decent but I wish I haven't made mistakes on it, seeing as it was only 20 multiple choice, getting 15/20. But chem... well I'm not entirely sure what I did wrong but I hope to improve it. I'm definitely going to try harder for that. I will do much better and wipe this mark out on the next one.
Labs suck, I gotta try harder on those things.
I really need to talk to a "Science Advisor" (somewhat like a guidance counsellor) but for some reason I keep avoiding it. Its like I'm scared of it, but I badly need to go. I don't really have a desire to stay in the Faculty of Science so I need some sort of plan. I don't know what I want to do, but maybe I'll take a gander at Occupational Therapy, Education, of Phys. Ed. Yes, I typed the word gander..
Hmm I think that's about it for now. Oh one last thing, I'm going to avoid going onto MSN Messenger. I'll log on on the weekends, but really I think using my email and the blogs is a way to communicate online. The people I mostly talk to on MSN are the ones with blogs anyways, so besides the weekends no msn! That is all, now drop and give me 50!

It's strange how these blogs have worked. I do think a lot of people are enjoying their blogs, whether they are just good storytellers or feel like letting people know what's up, and so on. Really fun and cool to read up on other people's thoughts and experiences.
The best feeling I can describe myself in is aimless. Ever feel like you've got the tools, the energy to pull something off big? You are like a canon, once your lit and fired nothing is getting your way and you are going to hit your target. The problem is, you've got to be aimed at something first. ...Wow, I just described myself as a canonball. Fantabulous.
I remember back in my TKD days that I was accused of thinking too much and it would freeze me. It was pretty true. When you are thinking instead of when you should be reacting, your hit and its done. I definitely need to just join the flow a little bit more. Well, I'll try to straighten things out, sometimes you just wish time wasn't always so fast.
On a more upbeat topic, it's almost Valentines Day! Delia's not going to get what she deserves, but I'm definitely going to try and give her a great time and hopefully memorable times. (= Hehe, I would rant on V-day, but overall it is a good day and I think it's a reminder for everyone, single or not, to think about the precious commodity of love! I've got some friends who haven't gotten lucky yet, but deserve to be, so I'm crossing my fingers for them and hope they have a great Valentines Day anyways.
One last thing, I am an Art Ross trophy winner!! Or, outside of that little voice in my head, a minature Art Ross plastic replica tropy owner.... but same thing

So I was talking to Ranald over MSN the other day. I'll briefly give you what he said, then you figure it out
-Went to girls house
- Initiated activity that required contact
- Repeated contact to body
- Gets all sweaty
- Shirt comes off
- blood involved
Anyhoo, if anyone noticed my MSN name is telling people to give me pushups or situps. Im feeling a bit out of it, so I figure I let people tell me to do those. Seems people only tell me at the same time.... instead of spread out exercises it's set after set...

Well now, it's midterms. Mine is a week away actually, but like last semester I planned to start at least 2 weeks ahead. Unfortunately, unlike last semester I've hit a roadblock. Stats, Econ, I don't think I will mind looking over. Physics is alright, but Chem... Chemistry is evil. Chemistry is where the labs are the University's way of dropping stinkbombs on you and you having to let them. Or maybe I should learn to follow some damn directions, when it says to pour friggin strong Base under the fumehead, maybe I should. Not over bench area where if you smell it enough, you'll cause yourself to faint.
Not only that, but I just can't get going on chem, I'll set time and get the books cracking, but before you know it the brain decides to take a break before you want to.
Not so funny story, but yeah here goes. For my Econ class we have quizzes that are to be done online. The Prof encourages students to get together to discuss them, and makes these questions on material we haven't done yet to make us read ahead. It's pretty helpful, but this time I didn't end up checking over with other people. I finished it Sunday afternoon when it's due at 10:00 pm, then stopped because I figured I'd get a chance to check it over later. Of course, it's Superbowl Sunday so I had to watch the halftime show and crap like that. Anyways, guess what time I figure out that although I finished my assignment, it's not handed in yet!! My computer clock says 9:58... YAY!!!! Luckily I hand it in but any GOOD University student shits their pants if it's not in on the right time.
Although that is a lot of complaining of school, life in general is good. Exams have a fun time of determining whether or not that was a good thing a week before exams, but we'll see. This weekend was a little on the not cool side. Friday was our Chinese New Year dinner with our association. Simon gets sick. Pukes. Larry gets sick. Keith gets sick, Delia gets sick... then I get sick momentarily. I puked in the kitchen sink! Delia made it farther than me, made it to the bathroom.
Oh yeah, Michelle Yong is afraid of birds.... WTF?!?!?! She would get mad at me if she saw this but since she doesn't look here she ain't gonna get mad. =)
Justin Timberlake rips off the right boob cover of Janet Jackson in the Superbowl. I don't really have a comment, just thought it was important.
Project Halo: T-16 Days.... Hey, what's the T stand for?
Okay, enough randomness, gotta jet y'all!! Peace out V!
.......How is someone afraid of birds? Unless Big Bird started chasing them down because someone phoned in on a PBS telethon and donated money but then didn't. Hehe... Simpsons...
