THURSDAY

I’m pooped, but pretty stoked about everything that went on today.  I’m really tired at the moment (and my left eye is twitching…not a good sign), so I’m just going to separate things by section of the day.

Morning:

Woke up at 9AM for class… that starts at 9AM.  I managed to get dressed and ready within an amazing 5-7 minutes (don’t ask how) and was cursing throughout the process.  Then I just found my situation rather funny and started chuckling to myself.  I wonder if it’s because I’m a senior, that I’ve experienced similar mornings before in the past four years, or that I’m just plain ol’ crazy.  I want to say a mix of the three, but I have an inkling it’s the last line of reasoning.

Afternoon:

While I working and tidying up my room, I find out that Kal Penn (aka the infamous Kumar from Harold and Kumar) was at a nearby cafe (Blue State Coffee, of course) advocating on behalf of Barack Obama and his presidential campaign.  I’m not usually so crazy over celebrities anymore, but since I needed to leave the room I decided to stop by to see what all the fuss was about. Here’s a picture from my cell phone (I couldn’t pull out my digital camera in time):

 

(Notice his Obama pin.)

I have another picture of the crowd afterwards but I will upload that later.  Suffice to say, it was pretty neat since I haven’t seen a celebrity in person for quite a while.  Then I had lunch and worked for a few hours.

Evening: 

Evening rolled around and off I went to the etiquette dinner.  Man, who would’ve thought that eating could be a torture process?  Thank goodness I didn’t live here during the Victorian era or early 1900s.  What ever happened to “just being yourself”?  The event wasn’t all bad though, the food was relatively decent and I got to laugh with friends.  Who knew that etiquette lingo was so ridiculous?  Anyway, if any reader/friend of mine who didn’t go wants to know what went down in fancytown, ask me in person.

Night:

I strolled to the mini-mart behind my building to buy a few things, and I find this hilarious sign in the back of the store:

Hilarious! What a day! Haha.  I’m so ready for the weekend.  Ciao y’all. 

NOTICE TO FACILITIES

——————-
From: sngk 
To: Facilities Management 
Date: 28 February 2008
——————–

Attention Facilities:

I am hereby requesting that your staffers put the water control knobs of the shower stalls back.  My fellow male hallmates and I do not appreciate having to walk to the other side of the building to just simply take a shower.  The tile floors are fixed and thereby the showers should be open again.  Please let us use the strong shower heads.  A sprinkling of water is not a shower.  Your expediency will be much appreciated by the fourth floor.  Thank you for your time. 

Sincerely,

-sngk 

PUTTING THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE

MORNING BRIEFING

Bush is rather peeved and angry this morning.
I think he realizes no one is paying attention to him anymore. 

I, on the other hand, am rather peppy.

BAD FORMULA

Insufficient sleep -> Lack of energy -> Laziness -> Backlog of work -> FAIL. 

HAHAHA

Nothing else to say. 

FELLOW READERS

My apologies for the lack of updates recently, as I’m playing the role of  gracious “host” at the moment.

Will update soon. 

THOUGHT OF THE HOUR

I need to implement a new strategy towards work and play - unforeseen factors have unraveled my old game plan.

THOUGHT OF THE HOUR

Sacrificing my health is so worth it… on occasion.
