Im gonna add someone else to that list of cool things beside here.
Check itttt.

Ice

That stuff's for cooling off drinks not for the slopes. New snow please.

Things to do when the power goes off.

1. Catch up on sleep.
2. Sew continuously ripping snowpants back together with dental floss (so smart!).
3. Drive to Thornbury in order to charge the crackberry with the power of the cigarette lighter.
4. Go birthday present shopping.
5. Wonder why you ever let your computer's battery hang at 6%.
6. Sleep more?

Electricity is the best.

Uh..

Sweet lord when did it become December 27? I have been in a hole (without internet) for the past 10 days but enough about me.

Mother nature and I are in a little tiff.
Not cool:
Cool:

Figure it out Mamma N.


also; i should tell you to watch this and give it all the stars possible.

Jesus

Christmas is coming and apparently Jesus was born on that day so we give people presents because of that. Or something.
But I'm not talking about that Jesus...

There's always some sort of 'hip' or 'trendy' word to be using. Well, maybe not even that it's hip, people just use it all of a sudden. Like last year I used to say fabulous a lot. Now I don't. I'm sure there are more examples. But right now we just all say 'jesus'. All the time! Quite frequently this jesus is also followed by a 'fuck', creating the 'jesus fuck'. Why is it that so many people say that now? Before no one would ever say things like that but now it's more common than Ugg boots on UWO campus. Start listening hard, i'm certain you'll notice.

Skinny Bitch

Some light holiday reading that will help everyone with their new years resolution..

Skinny Bitch vs. Smoking
"Okay. Use your head. You need to get healthy if you want to get skinny. Healthy = skinny. Unhealthy = fat. The first thing you need to do is give up your gross vices. Don't act surprised! You cannot keep eating the same shit and expect to get skinny. Or smoke. So don't even try some pathetic excuse like, 'But if I quit smoking, I'll gain weight.' No one wants to hear it. Cigarettes are for losers. They are so 1989 and totally uncool. Not only do they screw up your whole body chemistry, but they kill your taste buds. No wonder you eat shit and garbage. Smoking's out. Give it up."

Skinny Bitch vs. Booze
"Of course it's easier to socialize after you've had a few drinks. But being a fat pig will hinder you, sober or drunk. And habitual drinking equals fat-pig syndrome. Beer is for frat boys, not skinny bitches. It makes you fat, bloated, and farty. Why do you think when kids go away to college they gain the 'freshman fifteen'? Beer, duh. Alcohol isn't any better. It raises the level of hydrochloric acid in your stomach, wreaking havoc on the digestive process... Hence, bloated fat-pig syndrome."

Skinny Bitch vs. Soda (Pop)
"Brace yourselves girls: Soda is liquid Satan. It is the devil. It is garbage. There is nothing in soda that should be put into your body... Last time we checked, sugar, found in soda by the boatload does not make you skinny! Now don't go patting yourself on the back if you drink diet soda. That stuff is even worse. Aspartame (an ingredient commonly found in diet sodas and other sugar-free foods) has been blamed for a slew of scary maladies, like arthritis, birth defects, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer's, lupus, multiple sclerosis, and diabetes. When methyl alcohol, a component of aspartame, enters your body, it turns into formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is toxic and carcinogenic (cancer-causing). Laboratory scientists use formaldehyde as a disinfectant or preservative. They don't fucking drink it. Perhaps you have a lumpy ass because you are preserving your fat cells with diet soda...Say goodbye to soda and hello to a sweet ass."

Skinny Bitch vs. Coffee
"'Don't talk to me until I've had my morning coffee.' Uhm...pathetic! Coffee is for pussies. Think about how widely accepted it has become that people need coffee to wake up. If you can't wake up without it it's because you're either addicted to caffeine, sleep deprived, or a generally unhealthy slob. It may seem like the end of the world to give up your daily dose, especially if you rely on Starbucks as a good place to meet men. But it's not heroin girls, and you'll learn to live without it."

(Exerpts from "Skinny Bitch" by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin. The book then goes on to talk some crazy shit about how you have to be a vegetarian and avoid dairy and eggs so it can basically suck it, but these are funny.)

ya so..

I have less time on my hands these days to sit and think about random things like urinals and clementine seeds...

3essays/3hours

Last exam in 4 hours. 3 essay questions, 3 hours.
I can't believe this semester is over already. One semester closer to SPRING!
Celebrating with the homeboys in Toronto tonight, see you there:

The City.

I guess you could call this my guilty pleasure but I'm SO EXCITED FOR DECEMBER 29!



It may be lame but I still watch The Hills religiously and cannot effing wait for Whitney's spin-off.

MORE

Tunez.

Today I got some new tunes. Mostly, they sucked.

Dear Brit- SUCKIT. Go away, you can't make a comeback, you suck and that is all. After Womanizer my ears wanted to explode. Someone please assassinate this bitch.

Shiny Toy Guns needs to go back to Rainy Monday and just figure it out. This is such a let down and will probably be deleted off my computer the next time the 'Your start up disk is almost full.' warning appears again. Apparently this band hoped on the 'alternative' bandwagon a little late. Fired.

The chick who does the music for Grey's Anatomy and Gossip Girl knows what is up. This is actually good. Mellow, but good. Skinny love was her pick for Grey's and it's mine too. This is the only one worth your time.. sort of.

Cheap Wednesday

New jeans are the nicest ever. Today I picked up these bad boys. Thanks Echelon!

Bored?

If you're bored a lot lately (like me) or need to procrastinate a lot (like me) you may find some entertainment here.
That is all, exams suck.

Trelawny

12:40am tomorrow? Apparently my facebook predicts the future.

Philosophy.

I'm in the midst of studying for my philosophy of evil exam (it's tomorrow) and I just gotta give props to those old dudes who dedicated their entire lives to thinking. As if they went out with their friends and instead of getting wasted and talking about their mistresses they went out, got wasted and talked about the meaning of life. Or the origins of evil. If I ever go out with the girlfriends and have a meaningful chat about whether or not evil is part of human nature or not I will be sure to give myself a pat on the back.
The dude up top is David Hume. He's my favourite and I just spent the last hour reading about his ideas about evil. The dude was basically one of the first guys to figure out that God wasn't all he was cracked up to be. Pretty deep stuff for a fat dude with awful hair.

November.

I listened to this lots in November:


What can I say, I'm a sucker for Coldplay.

Clementine

Ah, the holiday season. When bells are singing, snow is falling, pipers are piping (apparently), and everyone is holly jolly. Around this time of year clementines come into season (or so i'm assuming because you can never find the fuckers at any other time of year) and many indulge in their sweet, oh so sweet juices. I am guilty of enjoying a clementine or two in my day and must admit I more than enjoy the size, flavour, satisfaction of peeling (Yes, peeling- in grade 3 I became fascinated with Sky MacLeod, the girl in our class who could peel a clementine's skin into a perfect spiral. I was extremely envious as mine always ended up in 100 little pieces despite how hard I tried to copy Ms MacLeod. Keep in mind I also didn't have the patience to colour in the lines in SK so it was probably just in my blood.) and all the other goodness that comes with this sweet treat. The one issue I have with clementines is seeds. Why do some have seeds while others are clean. It doesn't seem fair to give some that burden whilst their box-mates get to enjoy a seed-free life. Seeds ruin the entire experience for me. I hit one and the entire clementine is thrown out immediately. Sometimes im lucky enough to catch them before they're in my mouth in which case I simply discard the tainted piece, but it's when I find out too late- after it's already in my mouth- that i'm just ruined. Something about the seeds grosses me out, even though they're natural. So if I were to ask for one thing for Christmas it would be for Science to figure that out. Surely if they can clone sheep and bring us the iPhone they can figure out a way to abolish the clementine seed entirely.

Santogold is playing with the big kids now. I think I like.

creaming my jersey

Only one more assignment left for the semester and i'm still procrastinating via the interweb.

Cream Your Jersey from john swystun on Vimeo.
I miss this a lot. Spring can be now and i'd be ok with it. Bring me back to Jersey Cream please.

Peehee.

As a female I am very aware of what goes on behind the closed doors of the ladies room. The common occurrence of girls using the facilities in partners or often groups is openly discussed and I'm sure there are many theories as to what goes on behind those doors. But I have to ask, what about the events that take place in the restroom of the opposite sex? I had the opportunity to experience this almost first hand at my job in the summer as I had an excellent view of the sinks in the men's bathroom. I can safely say I've seen close to it all- fights, sweat mark and teeth inspections, hand washing (and lack thereof), and even the occasional toughness check (ie. punch my reflection to see how tough I look).

Where my real curiosity lies is not what happens in front of the mirror, but more the idea behind urinals. Like... why? You don't have urinals in your home, and you sure as hell wouldn't install one if you could just pick them up at your local Sears. Why can't dudes bathrooms just have your plain old stalls? Do guys get too drunk to aim? Is it some sort of ego boosting (or crushing) social activity? Is there a casual conversation initiated by the simple act of relieving oneself? Do you look? Or simply stare straight ahead and pretend the dude beside you isn't there?

I'm genuinely curious. Answers please!

"Youre such a hoss for doing that."

Snowboarding is fun and that's really all.
