A Dormant Terriblelands

As mentioned previously, I will be away from April 30 - June 15. Expect nothing until then. Feel free to browse the site (if you don't see an annoying menu frame to your left, click here). You can waste hours of your life away on the gigantigism links page as well as you can etc etc etc.

Hmmm.. while away, I'm missing the Canucks in the playoffs, the Amazing Race, Survivor (actually... meh), The Office, Heroes, Spider-Man 3... But it will be worth missing!

Pray for us. And if you want to know more, ask me about my trip when I get back.

Until then, for the record, I would just like to say that "My Glorious" by Delirious? is one of the most awesomest songs ever.

Dragon Ball Z + Narcissistic Tim = Sad Geeky Little Boy

My hair was really long before I got a haircut this past week. So before that, I thought I'd do something fun, like pretend I'm from Dragon Ball Z. These are the results:


I wasn't thinking of doing a bunch of poses, I just wanted to get one good one, cause my hair actually looked great for once. Anyways, hope you had a good laugh. I did. It was funny. Hahaha. Not.
So much to do, so little time.

The Amazing Ethnic Race (8pm/9 Central)

(Don't feel bad if you don't understand my title - it's supposed to be a joke. A lame joke)

Haven't checked my email all day, been doing errands/avoiding the computer. Found out there was a bomb threat at SFU today via my inbox. Huh, interesting. And sad.

Speaking of school, I finished all my final exams this week, and I was musing on the bus, I can't remember which day, but in my 8 semesters so far at SFU I've had profs/lecturers/TAs who were:

- Canadian (caucasian)
- Japanese-Canadian ( not Nisei)

- Indo-Canadian
- British Indian
- Chinese (from China)
- Bosnian (don't know if Canadian citizen)
- British (don't know if Canadian citizen now)
- South African (don't know if Canadian citizen now)
- Canadian-Chinese
- Russian (don't know if Canadian citizen now)
- American (caucasian.... not 100% if he was American...)
- and a Honger
(Nov 22, 2008 - also add to the list:
-Mexican
-Iranian-Canadian)



which I find pretty interesting. Just goes to show how multicultural Canada really is. I really enjoy talking about race/ethnicity... it's fascinating to find out what cultural backgrounds people have, what common ties there are, and what are the differences people have with one another. Speaking of differences, I'll be the first to say, that yeah, I'm racist. I am one of the most racist people I know sometimes. However, before you try to start thinking up some nasty names to call me (I'm not Hitler-racist, I just make stupid comments/observations from time to time), I want to point out that I believe everyone is racist. Just some more than others. Think about it. Think about yourself while you're at it. It can be hard to admit and I think it's difficult to get away from. But hey, you should understand by now, that's life.

Speaking of life, my life to be exact (yeah, lousy transition I know), I'm going to be away April 30 - June 15 in east Asia. Going to be fun, so don't email me, I won't get it. Talk to me privately if you want to know more. I am more than happy to talk to you about it, even if you're a random internet stalker (althought you must be some real nutjob to be stalking someone like me).

And now to end off with something funny. I heard Jon Stewart say something like this on The Daily Show: "Four words you thought you'd never ever hear: Al Gore movie star"
I cracked up.

Thanks to the Internet, this can happen

Yes, in the previous post, I tried to pull a BWG. People are wiser than that. And I'm sort of predictable.

This post is about something that I find humourous. I was at school in a computer lab trying to do work by myself. But, then I wanted to ask someone about an assignment. So using MSN Web Messenger I tried to contact them. But, because the Internet was invented, it messed me up. And thus, the end result is a funny conversation. Note: I’ve changed people’s real names to their respective Elf/Hobbit/Orc (thank you
Barrow-Downs!) names because it makes it funnier. That and I want to respect their privacy. So here it is:

Grrrrrr.... Stupid.....

Sugar is great. Sugar is great because it is sweet. Sugar is also stupid. When I have too much bodily intake of sugar, it gives me a reaction. I think my mind starts to process things too quickly, and I do things without thinking carefully. Similar to becoming hyper. Maybe it's the same thing. Stupid sugar...

Anyways, last night while at the grocery store, I saw a car parked right in front, but the toolshed person who parked the car didn't do it properly. They went into the stall head first, but had cut across the other stall beside it, so about 1/4 of the back end was over the other stall. Is it that difficult to understand what the white lines are for?! I think it was from all the jolly ranchers I was eating about an hour earlier, but something inside me made me so angry. I don't know why I decided to do it, and I've never done anything like it before. I wanted that person to learn how to park a car properly. So I keyed their car. Yeah I know, idiot.

The guy came back just as I started (it was only about an inch) , saw me, and I just froze. I was in the wrong. I knew it. He just started to yell at me and went off about pressing charges for vandalism or whatever. Everything started to blur right about then. About half an hour later, after talking to police and stuff, it was settled (for now) and the guy will be contacting me about whether or not he wants to settle this outside of court. Stupid sugar. Stupid everything.

NOTE: Please look at the date of this post. Hardy Har Har.

On a more lighter side, I've signed up for Google TiSP. Hurray...
