Updates.. ?

[dinner] – V’s Flickr, 15th Mar ‘07

I haven’t been writing lately thanks to the lack of pictures, but LS’s screaming at me over MSN so I’d better satisfy her appetite (for blog posts!) soon haha. Has anyone else been waiting for updates as well? Hrmmm I wonder.

Anyway, small random incidents follow:

• How do you open a bottle cap without a bottle opener? There was this day when I had to open a bottle of soya sauce, and oops no bottle opener (it was sealed with a bottle cap for some weird reason). I used a teaspoon to pry the edges open, and then a can opener on it. The cap came off, a few drops of soya sauce landed on the tabletop and I cut my finger in the process, fcuk. I hate bottlecaps.
• By freak coincidence or whatever it may be, I’ve sortof gotten a freelance assignment as Mr Call-Me-If-Your-Internet-Is-Having-Problems. It’s better than having no income, and I’m doing something I enjoy so it’s all good.
• School’s been pretty good, if you discount the late nights I keep while doing my essays. Whew, I have a 3,000 word research report and a 1,500 word essay to finish up.. and I haven’t even begun research on the report yet. And I keep dozing off at lectures, no matter the subject haha. The seats must really be too comfy for someone who’s been sleeping little. And I’m still getting to know more people around school. Slowly does it.
• I’ve begun (re)learning taekwondo again, after a hiatus of more than ten years. It feels good to be kicking again, but thankfully there’s none of those inhuman stretches I used to do. Having a white belt sucks though, I wanna get graded ASAP! Must get leg power back heh.
• And I’ve been cutting down gym to twice a week because I’ll be too sore for taekwondo if I worked out more than that.
• Autumn seems to be setting in; no nice scenery pics yet, but the nights are really cold now. Brrrr, when the wind blows the damn cradle doesn’t rock, but I shiver.

That’s all for now. And oh yeah, scalded finger right now ‘cus I rammed the knuckle into the side of the frying pan when I was doing chicken nuggets. Not too painful, but kinda uncomfy and the skin’s all red and such right now. Tsk.

Addendum:

- Cowboy Caleb’s guide to having a modestly successful life; hilarious.

- Mr Wang and his take on army stuff. I thought it was fcuking funny, so if you think otherwise that’s your problem.

- Photograph sets of sleeping postures through an entire night.

To round things up.

Scary shit.
