I am trying to figure out the best method of faking sick right now so I don’t have to go to Christmas dinner; staying home and reading the new chem book my uncle got me/playing ODST all day sounds much more enjoyable than forced family crap. I’m thinking that claiming a brutal hangover, with some nasty side effects, would get me out of it. Perhaps that makes me a horrible person. But Joe...
Renewed faith in the goodness of people
All you hear on the news and in print, are all the worlds disasters and how people fail to be good towards one another. While working the drive-thru today a woman decided to pay for the person’s drink in the car behind her, and to leave a note saying “Happy Holidays, Enjoy”. She did not know the person behind her or the amount of money she was paying for the persons drink. She...

What do i do with a coursepack?
I spent $85 on a course pack (which is basically just a bunch of photocopied sheets) for my history class. Now that the course is over I don’t know what to do with it! The professor is now going to be using a textbook,so its not like i can sell it and I don’t know if i want to recycle $85 worth of paper…Such a dilemma

– I have one exam left and i just can’t find the motivation or energy to study for it . I’m in need of some inspiration anda sense of purpose before i spend another late, and seemingly mindless night alone with my books.
The end is in sight, and all that stands between me and the holidays is an essay wirtting exam ….26.6 hours to go :)
Some people just don't take university seriously..
The two guys who were sitting behind me in my psych exam today were caught cheating. Apparently they were looking at each others tests (which is funny because they alternated verisons of the exam, so one had the a version and the other had b) and were talking. This exam was worth 45% of the overall mark for the course!!! I dont get why someone would chance 45% of their mark and possibly getting...
Solution to me sleeping in past my alarm.
theflawedartist:
2 AM to 12:30 PM - amazing sleep.
Food.
1:30 PM to 1:45 PM - shower.
1:45 PM to 7 PM - sleep.
So I actually slept over 15 and a half hours. Almost 16. Take that acdavis’s psych class.
For the very few i haven’t told…I learned in psych awhile ago that your slept debt (amount of sleep you don’t get) builds up for two weeks. It really makes sense!…I...
I'm not impressed..
I went to Guava's Shawarma on my break today. My break was late, and i hadn't eaten in 5+ hours so I was pretty much starving
Me: Can i get a small chicken shawarma and small potatoes
Guy: Yeah definately, looks like someones hungry today
Me (didn't know what to say) : ...haha..yeah I haven't eaten in awhile
I was so insulted! who says that to a customer?

After about 2 months of constant rearranging, dropping, and adding courses I finally have the classes that I want for next semester.
My next semester line up is: applied psychology, intro to sociology, anatomy and physiology, cell biology, and determinants of health.
Its going to be a really tough semester but I’m really excited to be in courses that I’m interested in.
Next step:...
First real day of winter and I already hate it ..
question on my philosophy review:
Giving President Bush his daily war briefing, the Secretary of State ended by saying, “Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed.” “Oh, no!” exclaimed Bush, “that’s terrible.” His staff were stunned by this display of emotion. Finally Bush raised his head from his hands and asked, “Okay, so how many is a Brazillion?”
hahaha

I have a busy exam schedule; i have exams on the 9th, 13th, 15th, 16th, 17th. So I decided to complain to a friend
Me: I wish my exams were more spaced apart, I'm going to get really stressed.
Friend: Just think, you'll get to go home early!
Me: ...I live here...I go home everyday.
Friend: Oh yeah...haha
This convo did not make me feel better at all.
Library etiquette
I’m in the library right now attempting to get some studying done..and this girl is playing music on her laptop loudly for all of the library to hear:
1) Why does she not use headphones like any other sensible person? And if she doesn’t own headphones, why doesn’t she play it at a low volume?
2) Does she really think other people are enjoying what she’s listening to?
