I just came from a workshop on climate change organized by the Canadian Labour Congress. It's a two-day thing and it ends tomorrow at 5. There were some nice and very interesting people there, and a couple weird ones too. There was this one guy who seemed like he was high on something. He was like one of those stereotypical tree-hugging/hippie type characters. And the way he talked...you'd think this was from the 70s or something. From what I saw, I believe he might be mildly insane.

On the way back I ran into Sanjay...Hi Sanjay! It's been AGES! Good to see you friend, you looked great and Ricardo (oooh I hope the name is right! Me not good with names) was really nice.

Before I go, I just want to disgust you a little bit. I just picked at my eyebrow piercing and a scab about the same size as the barbell fell off! Yummy!

Bummer. My eyebrow is infected. I believe it's because I keep rubbing it, I think I should stop that. What a waste of a day today was, I have two huge essays due and I didn't lift a finger to start either one. I think I need professional help. Is there such a thing as 'Procrastinators Anonymous'? I would so go to one of their meetings.

On a brighter note, I did well on my midterm. I didn't ace it but I came close. 78!!

I rule.

I just finished watching the original Dawn of the Dead. All I can say is gross. so much gore and blood, but it was kind of funny because everything looked so fake! The 'blood' looked nothing like real blood. And since when is flesh so soft and spongy that humans can take a bite out of it like they were taking a bite out of a sandwich.
I think I should see the new one. I heard the running zombies were cool. I love running zombies, so much more scarier than ones that drag their feet.

So I saw that, and yesterday I saw American Psycho. I'm watching these movies for my Cinema and Modernity class. I have to write an essay about these movies you see. Usually I wouldn't watch these types of movies but I have no choice. I'm supposed to choose between watching horror, romance or science-fiction...I have a very strong gag reflex, so romance was out of the question, and I just don't 'get' science fiction type movies. Maybe I'm not smart enough or something, I don't know. So, it was horror by default.

By the way, this week I made my very first DVD purchase. I don't have a DVD player but I have a laptop that can play DVDs, so I don't plan on getting one. I was really hoping I could avoid those stupid things but...
ah well. I can't believe that my beloved VHS is becoming obsolete right before my eyes. Reminds me of my ordeal with the whole CD thing back in high school. I was one of those people that was stuck to cassettes, I hated the CD when it first came out, 'cause it meant I had to get a CD player. But then I had no choice but to buy them because the stores stopped carrying them! blah

Right now I'm half watching cbc's the passionate eye...i love it. But it's so sad tonight, oh man I almost cried...ok fine I did cry. just a little. Tonight's documentary was called "a Tale of Two Alis." I almost wish I didn't see it. I feel so stupid...Here I am worrying about things that are so fucking trivial while these kids are being orphaned and mutilated.

I wonder how those inhuman bastards sleep at night knowing what they're putting innocent people through. Shit! I wish I could just snap my fingers and wipe them off this planet. I hate them, I more than hate them. If there's a stronger word than hate then that's what I'm feeling right now. Hell, I've had too much reality for one night, must go listen to some music and stop myself thinking crazy thoughts.

(One more thing, rough cuts on cbc is airing another documentary about the iraq war this Thursday and next Sat. Watch it, it will probably be just as sad and tragic.)
I just got this from K. it made me feel so much better...I bet that it'll make you feel better too!

"One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally he decided the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway, it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well.
At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement, he quieted down. A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw.

With every shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take a step up. As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and trotted off!"

Just came from economics...Aye! I don't like economics at all, in fact I hate it!
I wish I could videotape myself during the lectures. According to a classmate I have the strangest expressions in that class...They say it's almost as if I'm asleep with my eyes open. Hell I want to see that!
I catch myself sometimes, I could feel that my face is doing strange things. For example, I might all of the sudden notice that my eyes are open really wide and I have to bring them back to normal size. More often though it's my mouth that's doing strange things, it'll be hanging open and completely slack. Dang I must look braindead to the prof!
Revenue Canada...thank you for making my day. Today you're my best friend. That big, fat cheque you sent me today came just in time. (I needed to pay some bills) I'm so grateful to get that money. Granted the money was mine in the first place and you're just returning what you took from me, but whatever.

Now I can clear up my school account and I can pay the rest to the immoral filthy, bloodsuckers otherwise known as mastercard and visa.
