Ugh!!!

Its now been a week... and I'm still quite sick...

I hate it...

I'm miserable, I'm bitchy...

I almost cried during a cheesy movie (apparently sickness leads to a developement of human emotion in Neal)

Warning exposure to bacteria may cause neal to become hyper emotional!

eww...

A Weekend Ends

So it has beena n interesting weekend... by interesting I mean boring... I hate being sick, and the not doing anything that is attributed to it...

I went to the play cast party though... I more or less forced myself... And then i forced myself not to be sick for a few hours... i think it worked as no one was like "oh neal you look so awful why don't you go home and go to bed"

They've been saying that every other time I've been out in public...

I suppose I'm complaining... But you know how when you're sick you want everyone to know how miserable you are? Thats battling it out with my desire to be independant...

I want to be babied, but I would never want anyone to baby me...

Perhaps tomorrow I'll have soup... I hope the cafeteria has good soup...

Umm... What else...

The ear slowly getting past the "I hate you! what did you do to me! I'm going to bleed to make you know how much I hate you!" phase... Although it still does bleed a little bit... Thats to be expected though...

Someones laptop was stolen from dorm today... Kinda scary to know that there are people who would do this... Even scarier to think that they have access to dorm...

Needless to say there will be punishments for anyone propping open the door to dorm from now on... I'll have to discuss with my boss what the punishment will be...

Umm...

Yeah... Thats pretty much my life up to this point... If only you knew how truely boring I am, none of you would read my blog... Well... except for those of you who live a life more boring than my own...

Ah!

Sleep time

Something New

SO I ended up getting my piercing... Due to the nature of my ear its not 'perfectly' straight, but its an interesting effect none the less... I'll try to trace down a camera tomorrow and get some pics (and of my rook too since many of you havent seen it either)

I almost didnt get my piercing today... I was really sick this morning (I gave my breakfast as an offering to the porcelain god)... But my teacher excused me from my exam, in the understanding that I would have myself checked out by a doctor...

But a few pills and a couple hours later I barely felt nauseous...

And since the piercing was free I was good to go...

I went with my friend to get a piercing of her own, prior to the pills kicking in, and almost backed out then... When I watched the needle going through her flesh I almost yahked on the spot... Don't tell her... Leah, don't read this paragraph...

I'm glad I didnt back out... I like being unique...

Oh well... Sleep time...

Blech

I hate throwing up...

With Absolute Certainty (well, sometimes on occasion)

I don't want to worry about chem...

Well, I supose I shouldnt want to worry at all... but I especially dont want to worry about chem anymore. And perhaps I dont need to. I mean, this class is based on the lab... and I am doing fine in the lab... SO my exam this morning should reflect that... right?

I hope so...

Well... maybe hope is a bad word... I am fairly confident though...

Almost...

Ick...

I'm really looking forward to possibly getting the piercing tomorrow... I hope the piercer isnt like "hell no! you'd never be able to sleep again!"

That would suck...

ugh!

Stupid exams...

Ugh! stupid high school kids...

They were giving me lip last night... I got a tad bit snippy...

Tad would be a mild uderstatement... if of course in some twisted universe, tad meant huge!

I snarled and I yelled...

They wr're being stupid...

And I I need to havea University floor meeting because of the practical jokes...

They've gone to far and someones feelings were hurt...

Oh well... I'm gonna have another nap...

Comitted

So I didnt end up getting a piercing today... But I think I'm going to get one tomorrow...

I have to talk with the piercer first, but I think I know what Im going to get...

forward-helix to rook would probibly be the easiest way to describe it...

It'll be parallel to my industrial...

Heres a conceptual picture:
I think the effect could be quite cool!

Here's hoping my piercer says its alright (they generally wont do things that dont have a snowballs chance in hell of healing...)

Busy Day

So I've done it again...

Tomorrow I agreed to wake up (early) to help out at a BBQ thingy in teglar...

Should be fun... hopefully I don't poison anyone... I suspect i wont be there for the full hour as I like my burgers e.coli free... which usually means char induced goodness... Which I know isn't the preference of the general populace... But really, if you put on enough ketchup, you dont even taste the Charcoal...

Then I'm going with friends to get body modifications... Two are getting tattoos, and one is getting a piercing (at least thats still the plan)

I think I want to get a new piercing as well, and I havea few ideas... but it will be dependant on time and and how much more jewellry I can fit in my ear =D

I then have to be back at school before choir in order to do a thank you presentation for the conductor we've had for the last few weeks... Not time consuming or anything... but it's something I've agreed to do... Then is choir... Choir is fun... especially the new conductor... he's quite the character, and he goes off on the strangest tangents... It really keeps us on our toes

I then have two (not one, but two) meetings... At the same time... Both are (more or less) manditory... Should be fun...

Then work... But one of the meetings goes into my work time... (incase you havent noticed eating dinner has yet to be schedualed in)

Then I need to study for my exam on thursday... Which will be fun in and of itself... I mean, who doesnt like studying for exams in classes that are bearably tollerable in and of themselves?

So tomorrow is going to be fun to say the least...

Another Wasted Night

So many stories to tell...

I may have gotten slightly intoxicated at the school function last saturday...

By slightly, I, of course, mean completely... and by intoxicated, I mean filled with the Holy Spirit...

Well... no... I got smashed...

But hey, it is reformation weekend, and I have put up with god awful 'Luther is Great' comments for the last week... I swear to God, one more lame ass "...and thats why luther was the greatest saint of all time, amen" bible studies, I'm going to scream... Or convert to catholocism... At least when they venerate Mary, they don't make it so blatantly obvious...

So who in the class can tell me what the 6 topics covered by luthers small catechism are?

10 commandments, apostles creed, lords prayer, baptism, communion, and the alter sacrements...

Now who in the class, without referring to luthers small catechism, can find half of these topics in the bible?

It's a reference! Not a Crutch!

And at least I have the decency to make fun of catholics and have them rebute... In a public forum, I don't think it's tasteful to attack christian faiths simply because they don't believe in luther...

Well, I'm sure they believe in the historical luther... just not the mythological one whose out slaying dragons, recusing the maidens, and converting the... well... catholics...

Do you suppose I'm bitter?

By now all the lutherans are typing up their hate comments... While I'm sure the catholics are picking themselves up from their floors... But might I continue?

Nov 10th is martin luthers birthday...

Did you know that?

I sure did! Wanna know why? Because in 2002 Nov 10th fell on a sunday... On sundays I occasionally go to a little building called a church... On this particular sunday, we sang Martin Luther a warm Happy Birthday...

I'm sure he enjoyed our singing as he rolled over in his own grave (I don't think he'd be impressed by the amount of praise he recieves from the luthera church)...

But yes, we sang happy birthday for a guy who died almost 500 years before I was born... There was also cake...

Then we sang "A Mighty Fortress"... For those of you who don;t know, in the lutheran church there a few word changes... we sing "Luth-er Luth-er Luth-er..." tyo the tune of "a mighty fortress" because the more we say his name and pretend he was completely infallible, the more grace the almighty luther will pour out upon our souls...

For all you catholics, thats the secret... and thats why we don't have to go through purgatory...

Teach you to pray to a women... The bible even says they don't have any power...

Wait? You say women can be chosen to serve God in ways other than baking caseroles for pot-lucks?

Not in the lutheran church, my friend...

Oh wait... No, just not in the LCC church... thats right...

But that's a whole 'nother can of worms... One which I feel the need or desire to fight about... If women want power, they can take it from me, but I'm not about to get if for them...

Anyways, back to my disdain Idol worshipping going on in lutheran churches everywhere...

I think I'm almost completely devoid of compassion for the lutheran church... I think the only thing preventing me from running off and joining the catholic church is that I feel that the papacy is almost as bad as the lutheracy and the intrinsic errors I see in the priesthood...

*sigh*

To Do

So I need to buy a cd, watch a movie, make it to rehersal and learn to take directions from a new conductor today...

Should be fun!

Check out the sacred music festival tonight if you have the time and cash to spend!

RHPS

So whats more fun than going to a theatrical production?

Going to a theatrical production put on at a gay bar dressed as the main character and shouting things at the actors on stage...

Yes my friends, I went to Rocky Horror picture show... dressed as a attempted Frank'n'Furter...

My two problems though were as follows: my costume was incomplete... I didnt have fishnets, I didnt have a wig, I wore a miniskirt instead of manties... and problem 2, it was WAY too cold to be parading through the streets of edmonton wearing nothing but a miniskirt and a corset (and shoes and underwear)

Oh well...

Tonight I'm a cowboy

Arg!

Due to technical difficulties, I am unable to use my computer (it's getting fixed)

It may be a while before my next proper post

*sigh*

Recovering

So I'm two steps closer to being a mature and responsible adult... I am officially starting to repay my student loans...

Yup, I will now be making $200 monthly payments, and, with hope, I will be able to repay the entirity of my loan back in 72 months (with a final payment on Nov 25th 2011 of $8.64)

This should be fun...

I didnt get very much sleep today... actually, thats an understatement and a half.. I got 2 hours of sleep today...

Stupid labs...

The lady next to me while I was doing my lab report on excel was HITTING HER KEYS AS HARD AS SHE COULD WHILE SHE TYPED

Not that thats annoying, or anything, but I wanted to beat her head in...

I'm trying desperately to focus and shes beating the keyboard like its going out of style...

I'm also missing my sticky-tac... I have a bunch of things I want to put on my door, but I can;t because I dont have any sticky-tac....

One of the high school kids asked me over msn if I would like to autograph his penis... Well, actually I volunteered... But he offered me a smoke if I came and did it...

These are the types of conversations I get into that are going to get me fired...

Not tha i'm too worried about getting fired... I would like to think that I'm doing a good job... I'm just having a rough time keeping the inappropriatness in check...

Me? Never!!!

Oh... and that thing I said I was going to do but I couldn't talk about it?

I did it, it was totally worth it, but I still can't tell you what it is...

I dont think I want to go to my class in the morning... *Sigh*

7 hours is not near enough time to sleep to prepare for a 70 minute chemistry lecture...

*sigh*

Well, time for sleep

Story of my life

If only I had started my lab three hours earlier... I could have been done by now...

If only I had written down the mass, I wouldnt have to lie about how much magnesium is in that bloody thing...

If only I had brought a matching cloloured pen, I could forge my answers into something a lot more realistic than the numbers I actually achieved...

If only the amount of calcium dissolved in each 50ml sample of water didn't vary between 114ppm and 121ppm...

If only my professor were reading this right now, understanding fully the hatred this lab has instilled uppon my heart...

If only...

Maybe I'm lame but...

... There just aint no party like an S-Club Party!

I wonder

Just got out of the shower... and got to wondering... how much of the mold is toxic...

Not that there a re large amounts... but I'm pretty sure it is mold...

What Drink is Neal?

You Are a Bloody Mary

You're a fairly serious drinker, who's experimented a lot with different drinks.You're a drunk, but a stable drunk. You don't ever let your drinking get out of control.

What Mixed Drink Are You?

Lessons Over Drinks

So if I invited you out tonight and you didnt come, you missed out on a good time...

I learned that beer bottles are not very stuturally sound, and if you make mention of broken glass ditzy waitresses will not connect *glass cut <---> lawsuit* and offer you free drinks... We should sue...

I learned that Israel and Qatar could potentially become quite close, should Jordan keep out of everything... Apparently, mexicans seem to think theres a lot more in a name then there may very well be (but maybe the palestinians might be a little put off)...

Jenn smokes a lot when people complain about Canada... But don't worry, mexico isn;t even the largest economy in latin america...

And finally I learned that headliner means nothing... If only I could remember the name of the opening band... that would be great...

Good night...

By Request

By request, here is Everyone is a Little Bit Racist:

Princeton:
Say, Kate, can I ask you a question?

Kate Monster:
Sure!

Princeton:
Well, you know Trekkie Monster upstairs?

Kate Monster:
Uh huh.

Princeton:
Well, he's Trekkie Monster, and you're Kate Monster.

Kate Monster:
Right.

Princeton:
You're both Monsters.

Kate Monster:
Yeah.

Princeton:
Are you two related?

Kate Monster:
What?! Princeton, I'm surprised at you! I find that racist!

Princeton:
Oh, well, I'm sorry! I was just asking!

Kate Monster:
Well, it's a touchy subject.
No, not all Monsters are related.
What are you trying say, huh?
That we all look the same to you?
Huh, huh, huh?

Princeton:
No, no, no, not at all. I'm sorry,
I guess that was a little racist.

Kate Monster:
I should say so. You should be much more
careful when you're talking about the
sensitive subject of race.

Princeton:
Well, look who's talking!

Kate Monster:
What do you mean?

Princeton:
What about that special Monster School you told me about?

Kate Monster:
What about it?

Princeton:
Could someone like me go there?

Kate Monster:
No, we don't want people like you-

Princeton:
You see?!

You're a little bit racist.

Kate Monster:
Well, you're a little bit too.

Princeton:
I guess we're both a little bit racist.

Kate Monster:
Admitting it is not an easy thing to do...

Princeton:
But I guess it's true.

Kate Monster:
Between me and you,
I think

Both:
Everyone's a little bit racist
Sometimes.
Doesn't mean we go
Around committing hate crimes.
Look around and you will find
No one's really color blind.
Maybe it's a fact
We all should face
Everyone makes judgments
Based on race.

Princeton:
Now not big judgments, like who to hire
or who to buy a newspaper from -

Kate Monster:
No!

Princeton:
No, just little judgments like thinking that Mexican
busboys should learn to speak goddamn English!

Kate Monster:
Right!

Both:
Everyone's a little bit racist
Today.
So, everyone's a little bit racist
Okay!
Ethinic jokes might be uncouth,
But you laugh because
They're based on truth.
Don't take them as
Personal attacks.
Everyone enjoys them -
So relax!

Princeton:
All right, stop me if you've heard this one.

Kate Monster:
Okay!

Princeton:
There's a plan going down and there's only
one paracute. And there's a rabbi, a priest...

Kate Monster:
And a black guy!

Gary Coleman:
Whatchoo talkin' 'bout Kate?

Kate Monster:
Uh...

Gary Coleman:
You were telling a black joke!

Princeton:
Well, sure, Gary, but lots of people tell black jokes.

Gary Coleman:
I don't.

Princeton:
Well, of course you don't - you're black!
But I bet you tell Polack jokes, right?

Gary Coleman:
Well, sure I do. Those stupid Polacks!

Princeton:
Now, don't you think that's a little racist?

Gary Coleman:
Well, damn, I guess you're right.

Kate Monster:
You're a little bit racist.

Gary Coleman:
Well, you're a little bit too.

Princeton:
We're all a little bit racist.

Gary Coleman:
I think that I would
Have to agree with you.

Princeton/Kate Monster:
We're glad you do.

Gary Coleman:
It's sad but true!
Everyone's a little bit racist -

All right!

Kate Monster:
All right!

Princeton:
All right!

Gary Coleman:
All right!
Bigotry has never been
Exclusively white

All:
If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
Even though we all know
That it's wrong,
Maybe it would help us
Get along.

Princeton:
Oh, Christ do I feel good.

Gary Coleman:
Now there was a fine upstanding black man!

Princeton:
Who?

Gary Coleman:
Jesus Christ.

Kate Monster:
But, Gary, Jesus was white.

Gary Coleman:
No, Jesus was black.

Kate Monster:
No, Jesus was white.

Gary Coleman:
No, I'm pretty sure that Jesus was black-

Princeton:
Guys, guys...Jesus was Jewish!

Brian:
Hey guys, what are you laughing about?

Gary Coleman:
Racism!

Brian:
Cool.

Christmas Eve:
BRIAN! Come back here!
You take out lecycuraburs!

Princeton:
What's that mean?

Brian:
Um, recyclables.
Hey, don't laugh at her!
How many languages do you speak?

Kate Monster:
Oh, come off it, Brian!
Everyone's a little bit racist.

Brian:
I'm not!

Princeton:
Oh no?

Brian:
Nope!

How many Oriental wives
Have you got?

Christmas Eve:
What? Brian!

Princeton:
Brian, buddy, where you been?
The term is Asian-American!

Christmas Eve:
I know you are no
Intending to be
But calling me Oriental -
Offensive to me!

Brian:
I'm sorry, honey, I love you.

Christmas Eve:
And I love you.

Brian:
But you're racist, too.

Christmas Eve:
Yes, I know.
The Jews have all
The money
And the whites have all
The power.
And I'm always in taxi-cab
With driver who no shower!

Princeton:
Me too!

Kate Monster:
Me too!

Gary Coleman:
I can't even get a taxi!

All:
Everyone's a little bit racist
It's true.
But everyone is just about
As racist as you!
If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
And everyone stopped being
So PC
Maybe we could live in -
Harmony!

Christmas Eve:
Evlyone's a ritter bit lacist!

A Real Post (to forget about the last one)

So a few things are malfunctioning in dorm as of recent...

I thinkI made mention of the fact we havent had hot water in a week... Do you know how exciting it is to take ice cold showers every night? It's a beautiful thing to have your testes retract completely inside your body, and have your brain all but shut down as you lie on the floor convulsing from shock from the pure cold...

The TV has been all but out of comission for the last two weeks... I think the VCR did it, but I'm not going to fix it (as I will probibly only manage to reduce the number of stations we are currently getting even more)... We can't watch the daily show or family guy!!! NO FAMILY GUY!!!

The washer machine is in the process of being fixed... You might be thinking "thats good, it's being fixed!" but this is not the case... We are loathing the day they came in to fix it... Up until last thursday, the washer machine was free... Free free free... Of course it needed to be fixed, concordia wasn't sucking the blood directly from our bodies... Leeches, I say, leeches... Isn't bad enough that we have to pay for extra forks at the cafeteria (even though we eat 3 meals a day there) ... but the one thing that actually manages to bring us a semblence of happiness (1/2 price laundry) they rush in to 'save the day' and bring it back up to full price... Oh! Best part! there is now only 1 dryer for 37 guys until the dryer is fixed... Line-ups anyone?

And tonights little addition to the broke-down list: Microwave... I mean, really, who needs food after 630pm... not any of the guys in dorm... It's dead... Dead as Christopher Reeves (ah ha ha to tasteless humour)... Of course, I found this out AFTER I sepnt 10 minutes waiting for my KD to cook... When the mac came out hard and cold, I figured there was a problem... especially after 10 minutes..

I'm sure there will be more things to add to this list very soon... But at least they fixed the hole in the roof in the hallway, I think... after 3 years...
