Thursday is the day today.

You know that saying that goes, "you've never experienced true fear until a poster falls down in the middle of the night"? I happen to be a victim of such fear.

Good thing I was able to continue my sweet slumber after that frightful experience or I would have been real tired for my last midterm this morning. I'm finally done school until after the break!

Now to pack. Oh the dreaded packing.

 

 

The following is an excerpt from 642 Things to Write About.

 

Your friend calls to say she saw you in the back of a police car yesterday. What happened?

 

I was taken over by a rush of rogue decision making and adrenaline. This combination did not in any way contribute to my recently clean record.

I saw the playground. I needed some happiness in my life and for a instant there I thought it would only come from playing on that playground.

Apparently, terrorizing little children is a crime.

Wendy's, Suitcases, and Anna Karenina

I'd like to congratulate Wendy's on their stellar job of giving me the correct burger. All I wanted was that number 1 combo, you had one job! Nope, instead I get the Baconators son. I don't like bacon on my burger and after that we were left with two patties and two buns. Not cool Wendy's.

I have come to the realization, although under my bed is a lovely storage space, it isn't that easy to get things out of that dark hole once they're put there. I need that big suitcase to go home on Friday and the first attempt was not long lived, I think I'll try again tomorrow when I've recovered and am better nourished.

Anna Karenina. A decent book, very boring, but decent. I don't really see where "the greatest love story of all the literature to ever show its face on planet earth" fell in, but I read it anyways. All 923 pages. I can't see myself ever reading it again. Maybe when I get old, I'll get Alzheimer's and I won't remember how unrereadable it was and then I'll read it again. I want all of you who plan on still being around when this happens, to kindly remind me of the pain and suffering I went through the first time I read it, and politely rip the novel from my hands and place it in a garbage can where I will not find it. Then go to my book shelf and get me something like Harry Potter, that's a series that can be read over and over again even if you don't remember when you read it before.

Then after struggling to complete that novel, I watched the movie.

Fat Tuesday

It is Fat Tuesday. I'm not at home in Ltown. Lakeside is not "down Oak Street and take a left".
I really want a poonchkie and have been denied a privilege given to many. It's just rude. Completely rude.
If I wanted to be left out of important events, like eating thousand calorie donuts, I would have gone to space where they are also denied such privileges.
Why do we have mothers? So they can please their children. Yet for some reason, my mother has not yet arrived with a poonchki. She is a fun sucker. Just sucks all the fun out of every awesome moment. Shame on you mother. Shame.
Here I am, all alone on this blistering Tuesday night. No light in the night, and no poonchki beside me.

Beauty

Society has taken beauty and made it into something that is unrealistic and unattainable. Magazines create an image that make us believe beauty is photoshopped, skinny, tan and flawless. This is not beauty. Beauty is inside of us, not on us. Have the courage to say, "I am beautiful just the way I am."

 

The following is an excerpt from 642 Things to Write About.

 

Write a scene that begins: "Joe was the last person on Earth I expected to do that."

 

Joe was the last person on Earth I expected to do that. I mean, everyone always expects this kind of thing from his brother, John, but never from Joe.

Joe, up until this moment, was a straight A student with a clean criminal record. He always followed the rules and tried, without success, to get John to do the same.

Some say Joe was overcome by an adrenaline rush and participated in these scandelous activities under the influence of too much energy.

Others say he was pressured by his superiors or it was part of rush or he was blackmailed into it.

Whatever the case, Joe committed a crime punishable by many years of prison, if he was caught. After years of being smart, he instantly found a way out of getting caught by the police.

Joe's life changed the day he participated in a street race, where he drove 87 km over the speed limit while under the influence of a certain drug.

Of course none of this can be proved, but a reliable source states they heard him mumble something along those lines when he got out of the vehicle after his race.

Crosswords

It takes a person of certain talent and incredible skill to be able to do a crossword puzzle. They really can't be done by just anybody.
They aren't always easy. I do the crossword from The National Post as often as possible. In 2012, their crossword was so easy. I could breeze through all the clues in a matter of 30 minutes and have all the answered laid out there for all to see. Then 2013 came around and someone down at the paper thought they should step things up and give me a challenge. I really liked being able to complete those crosswords. I haven't been able to finish one of them since the new year.
The formatting changed, and I know some of you don't think this would matter but it does. There are longer words that like to sneak in there and mess everything up. They always make those longer words something hard like the scientific name of some plant, or the name of a random city in a random country that you're just supposed to know. It really isn't very nice. If I can't complete the words around the big word, how am I going to be able to figure out what that big word is?
Next, if you aren't in on all the crossword knowledge, you must do them in pen. There is no pencil where crosswords are involved.
I hope you now feel enlightened on the awesomeness of doing a crossword puzzle. It just makes you feel all fuzzy and warm on the inside, kind of like an inspirational film. Just so feel-good.

The following is an excerpt from 642 Things to Write About:

The next blockbuster medicine that will be invented and what will happen as a result.

The Know-it-all pill is the next big thing in the medicine district.
There will only be 1000 of these pills sold and they will equally be distributed around the world.
As a result, 1000 people will have an unlimited amount of knowledge leading to 3 genocides, 17 nuclear attacks, 23 communist movements and an overall zombie take down.
