Jo told me to take this, here are my results.



So anyways, we went to The Keg today because we had a $100 coupon given by my bro for Christmas to my parents (but if course, the whole family gets to use it)... we ate expensively of course. The starters were the bomb of course -- calamari and escargot -- and then my mushrooms were missing from my meal so I had to ask for it. They gave my the wrong potato too. The place was revamped though; it looks VERY nice now. The atmosphere kinda puts you to sleep though.. dim lights and everything. But overall it was great anyways, so no more complaints for that.



FFXI: I partied up with the most annoying and rude newbies today. Not to mention bad liars. Kazham sucks. I'm glad I'm over and done with this place once again...



March is already approaching... time flies too fast.

I was really worried about my geo weather observation report all weekend (in addition to the damned essay)... When tuesday came around (when I had class), I worried all morning about how to find my other group members. Apparently I was so worried, God told me it was 'all right' by making my pk down the stairs at home. I think it worked. When I got to school, I visited the geo resource room to check out the member list again until a guy that was sitting there asked me what team I was in and whoa, he was in my team! (miracle miracle)~ Then when we got to class, whoa, apparently all the members of my team sat together (just that day only STRANGELY!) So that's dealt with, I'm glad.



In other news... I did really bad in my geo lab midterm. Damn significant figures. Overconfidence really let me down.



We watched Strictly Ballroom today. It was a VERY good movie! Except the ending was a little dumb but hey, everyone else was goood.



The guy that lived in our basement also moved out today. We'll miss the guy...



Today's journey in FFXI: very good. Got the new patch which added a lot of other cool features, though most of them didn't apply to me. The new furniture attributes are very nifty. When I was on my way to my moghouse before I logged, I saw this giant group of 40 or so people standing around all in the same linkshell ALL wearning JSE and ALL... JAPANESE! With my mouth opened a bit, I stared in awe as they started to gather, group up, cast buffs and use hourglasses. They must be on their way to Dyanamis... :O Oh such envy. I even took screenshots of their magnificence. :}



Oh and Monday, we had fun doing mission 3-3. A two party alliance with two high level guides and white mages galore. Very fun stuff.

So much stress. So much *school* stress. Dammit.



Just had piles of midterms the past few weeks. First was marketing. I did pretty good on that. Then I became summoner sometime that first week, so that was fun. Had to watch a film at school for English, Nosferatu. So hard to stay awake watching that. Black and white, tinted reds blues blacks... And there were no VOICES and the music was overly dramatic but it made you SLEEPY. Then I had Geo Lab miterm. Easy stuff. That following Saturday I went to a Christian "stand-up comedy" show if I may call it so of this critic that everyone thought would ever become and Christian but DID. And so he comes and tells his story (which he doesn't really, but just stands there and says lots of silly Hong Kong jokes) with this other guy (main reason I went) I LOVE listening to cuz he's so damn hilarious and I actually get his jokes too.. :P There was this one girl that wouldn't sit down and just stood around looking at the audience (I think she thought she was pretty) but anyways, she preformed a bit later to find that she can't sing (yeah she was singing some Medull song).. and OH this little kid acted like a HK bootleg Medull and sang his theme song. Everyone was "aww-ing" and such and such... really cute. Oh yeah, there was so much Medull because the composer of the famous songs was there and performed with his wife (caucasian!) and his crazy caucasian band too. T'was *VERY* nice music.



Following Monday (last monday), had no English so I had an extra long break (3 hours to be exact)... I don't remember what I did. Psychology Test Tuesday, I don't think I did well. Then I had my Geo midterm. It looked really easy. Too bad I didn't study. That means I screwed that over. Then we watched Bladerunner Wednesday. Interesting old flick... some parts were kinda stupid but hey, what do you expect from old movies. Man my friend in Psychology class smells like old clothes. Somebody's gotta tell him for me. I seriously can't breathe (or I don't breathe) in Psychology class. Tell him to wash his clothes.



Then came the 2 day spreak break.. aka long weekend. I already forgot what I did... more like I don't want to remember right now. Rather use the brainpower to finish up my essay I'm working on at the moment.



I didn't go to Der's party just because. I heard it was bad. It was expensive. The place smelled. The food was crap. Enough said.



Tony's B-day. I woke up around 12, knowing I had to get there by 2. I wondered if I should get a ride or drive myself. I went fishing a for bit (man fishing is addictive ;D) before I checked the actual Fish. Apparently he wasn't awake yet. Hmm still pondered if I should drive or not. He said okay, so I was like hmm okay don't want to drive, it's Saturday, must be really bad. So he says he'll be late, I'm like ok. Waited forever. He came at like 3. We were hungry. Went to eat and *cough* bought something too. Called up Tony and Sally to find that they're not there yet. Whoa panic. We got there, there were only a few people. Very strange. I called up Amy to make sure everything was good, and indeed it was. They snuck off to *cough* buy something. Got back, had conflict with the number of people in the room and the price they were going to charge us. That got dealt with so Simon, Amy and I fled. We went downstairs to the cyber cafe to see if there were any games that could occupy our time. Total crap. We (Uh maybe I) wanted something we could all take turns and play so I suggested CS. Someone was impatient with CS so Simon played Warcraft and we just watched him the whole time. Hmm, nope, I think I'm better suited with ffxi and fishing. Overall the cybercafe sucks ass. But it was cheap, 1.5$ per hour. Woot. We left to take some sticker pictures afterwards. When that was over, we went to eat at Mui Garden (I think?). Somebody realized they didn't buy something yet *coughtheonewiththecandlescough* so two people went to go and do that. Ordered a 10-person combo thingy. Everything was alright, average-type food. The service was crap. The cake places were dirty. Had to improvise. We were sorta kicked out because their restaurant was closing but it was all good. Oh, we met Carlos again there. He stole some cake and stole the photo shoots. He didn't belong there but whatever. Then I had to go home and thought I would start working diligently on my essay but nope I fell asleep instead.



Now I just finished heavy editing a FOB report for marketing again and I must return to my English essay. I have a midterm tomorrow morning and my Geo project/assignment is screwed over. Apparently none of my team members are organized. The assignment starts tomorrow, we have no classes together tomorrow, (we had to observe the weather btw), we don't know how to use the weather machine thingies because we didn't go to the meeting and shit. I'm not a happy camper. :< I even left a damn note on the board on Wednesday, hoping someone would read it and CALL ME (dude I even left my number) but nobody f--king did. :< I don't know what to do...



Back to my essay first. 800/1200... I'm already out of ideas, I'm screwed.

The past week was alright. Nothing overly great...

Well, the results fot the Psychology statistics assignment was crap. The marketing case study marks also came out crap. I couldn't monitor hunt crap. And didn't try to avatar hunt either. Had short dialogs for japanese class we had to create ourselves. Me and Irene made a all-out feminine dialog filled with pink bikinis, ~wa and ~wa ne and ~wa yo, and atashi and kareshi and 'ohohoho'. The teacher pet pair centered their dialog on the teacher's birthday, go figure. The 'chibi high pitched dude' was overly (and unnecessarily) hyper, jumping around and raising his voice constantly. Everyone elses' were typical.



After school Wednesday, I retrieved my brother's 22" monitor -- it's a TV. I then went out for bubble tea with Jo and Amy at the revamped Bubble World. The place is nice and roomy but our favourite photo hunt game was missing. However, they played unenjoyable music that repeated throughout our stay there. Replaced my old monitor with the 22" and whoa, scary big difference. Now I have too much desktop space but a nice movie player. At least until I get my new monitor. I was supposed to get a viewsonic but SOMEONE waited too long and now it's gone. Now I'm going to take the chance and wait till Monday to see if there are any other deals for better monitors. I'll just keep crossing my fingers and hope I'm right.



Got new groups for my marketing class. An unexpected group I'd say. I do not look forward to find anything good from these people though... I hope I'm wrong about this one.



I lost my original seat in my Geo lab class so I took the seat in front of it. I sat beside a strange girl who plays with her hair constantly in class and talks to herself a lot. I asked for some graph paper from her and I was only given one. I had to draw three graphs, supposedly on three separate sheets, but I was forced to fit all mine onto one sheet. Cheapass girl. :/ Got out of the class early and met Ryan. He came over and I lent him some anime. I angered a few drivers on my way home. Good stuff.



Watched the second half of Red White: Kouhaku. I expected White to win afterall and so they did. The guys definately had more interesting performances than the women. I was really happy to see CHEMISTRY perform. ELT wasn't any special nor was Ayumi. SMAP, imho, did a crap job even though everyone just loves them to death despite how little effort they put into it. I didn't know of Hitoto You until now but I might have fallen in love with this artist after hearing her song 'Morai Naki'. *goes to download*



Today. Woke up. Headached from sleeping too much. Had McDix for lunch. Waited for Jo and Amy to arrive for some studying. We studied for a record time of 2+ hours. We then watched My Sassy Girl as a reward for our hard work on teh 22" monitor. Not as great as we all heard it was. Had dinner at my local HK cafe. Stayed there for 2+ hours. Drove back. Talked in the car. We all had to piss. Went inside my house. Tried to install Amy's blog. Didn't know what the problem was. Everyone leaves. I realized the database wasn't properly activated yet. Sighs.



I'm cold. :|
