What You've All Been Waiting For...


You know what the top half looks like...
So here it is, for everybody to see. My awesome facial hair. Apparently not awesome enough to beat Dave's but we'll have a rematch in November along with Gugenz in the fray. More on that later.

I shaved it off this Monday morning before school. To tell you the truth I was quite sad. I don't know why. Maybe because it kind of grew on me. I'm not sure. Maybe it releases some sort of euphoric drug into my system. Sorry, I'm studying pharmacology. Truthfully, I looked like the dirty hobo.
By the end of December, I'll look even more like a dirty hobo. Growing out facial hair for a month and a half is going to be killer. It's gonna be even more killer being isolated from talking to any girls for that amount of time. I suppose its a good thing if I have to study for finals, a bad thing since my of my TAs are of the other sex. Oh well, atleast I'll have my textbooks to cry to. The pages don't absorb water like tissues do, but they're worth the price of 100 boxes of tissues...literally.
On December 17th I'm going to probably look like Gotou Masafumi From Ajikan (Asian Kung-Fu Generation). That should be my halloween constume... It'll be like last year when nobody really knew I dressed up as someone else.

Another Bet...

Just thought I'd have a little fun before I started my nerding again, this friday night. Wow, what an awesome social life I have. Friday night with the text books. Sorry If I sound excited, unfortunatly there is no way to communicate the sarcasm that statement was suppose to have, through the internet.

Anyway, I've started cooking at home again. It's nice to cook meals and eat what you want instead of eating out every night. Too bad the groceries cost a fucking lot. I hardly notice the savings from eating at home. Oh well, on tuesday I made Tonkatsu ramen with Prata. Really Chef like eh? I even got a picture to show you.


"It's like made by an Iron Chef, if Iron chefs sucked at cooking"

I haven't shaved for almost a week now, from my bet with Dave. I've been told I look pretty sleazy and I happen to agree. If I smile and make a mean looking face, I sorta look like the devil. My damn facial hair only grows in places that make me look like a fricking muskateer. I'll take a picture later. Don't wanna do it now at school for obvious reasons.

Gugenz, Chung and I made another bet involving facial hair. In retrospect maybe I shouldn't of done it, but I only live once, and if gugenz is going to suffer with me it probably won't be that bad. But anyway, the bet is that we will grow out our chin stubble, the moustache part is trimmable, and whoever has the longest hair after a month and a half will get $40 ($20 from each loser). I figure with my hair growth, I'll be able to beat them both if I can stand not shaving for a month and a half. It's already so hard to not shave after a week. The bet is set to start at the end of the week. Needless to say, I won't be talking to any girls from Novemeber till mid-December and the only looks I'll be getting from them is the "Who is that bum" and "Eww, get away from me" looks. (T_T) S'ok, I'll still have my books on friday nights when I'm alone...(sarcasm)

Experiment Done...But I'm Still Busy.

Been a while since I've updated. Phew, am I tired. As usual I'm studying at school again and taking a quick study break. I've been here for about 8 hours, another hour to go, maybe a bit more depending on how long it takes me to read the lab manual and go through Japanese again.

This weekend proved to be a bit more exciting than your run-of-the-mill weekends. I went out quite a bit, but also studied just as much, if not more. On saturday, I went to go watch the Departed, having watch the original HK version of that movie the night before. Unforutunately, when we got there, the movie theatre was packed and we (by we I mean Mike, Tmo, Dave and I) decided to watch the movie another time.

Deciding to kill some time before the hockey game (which turned out some what disappointing), we shopped around WEM for 2 1/2 hours. Giving into much temptation, I forked over some money for Super Mario Bros. Season 1 Dvd set. I tried watching it at school today but couldn't stop laughing and decided to stop, rather than embaress myself.

Another interesting thing happened at WEM. Dave and I, on a betting craze, betted on which one of us would have the longest facial hair in 1 week. So if you see me with a beard its because of the bet, not because I've turned into a hobo. In other words, don't be frightened if you see me at school. He has a four day lead, but I'm still confident that my outrageous facial hair growth will beat him. We'll see...

Other interesting bet we were going to make were how many beatings I would incur if I were to walk down Whyte ave wearing a Calgary flames Jerome Inginla Jersey. Dave said less than 4 (the beatings have to be 10 minutes apart by 4 seperate people). I said I would probably take more and would only win the bet if I could take all the beatings in one night. I didn't make this bet because 1) Ganging up is counted up as 1 beating and 2) I'd have to buy the jersey myself (what if they take the jersey off me and burn it then i'd be fucked for the night).

Thats pretty much everything fun for the week, everything else was just studying and relaxation. I'll update with pictures sometime next week of my stubble beard...Back to the books.


I'm obsessed because I have no life...

Experiment Day 5 & 6

I'm never drinking hot chocolate in the morning again. It puts me to sleep for some reason. Maybe Tim Ho's puts sedatives in there, for what benefit I'm not sure. Maybe they like to watch people sleep. Creepy.

I think I've weened myself off caffine, I actually feel a little better. I don't have as much headaches when I wake up. On the bad side I've been sleeping in several of my classes and have been feeling fatigued for a while. Maybe I need to do crack cocaine. Hahah Jk, I wouldn't touch the stuff.

I'll be happy when this week is over, studying is killing me, and I'll have atleast Sam's b-day party to look forward to on Sunday. Yippie, I'm so excited. (Not. maybe.. hahha depends if Sam is reading this.) But of course, the long weekend means more studying at school and catching up. I'd estimate that I will be spending about 8 hours a day at a school. Hopefully I'll get most of my shit done.

Back to studying, since I have a Japanese Kanji test tomorrow.

Pre-Japanese Essay Freak Out

OMG I'M GONNA FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Experiment Day 3 & 4

Going ok. Yesterday wasn't too bad, considering I felt pretty good when doing my midterm. We'll see how well I really did when I get it back. Today, I woke up after 6 hours of sleep. Baddddddd. So deciding to ween myself off coffee completely, I had a hot chocolate, which made me even sleepier. Luckily I did wrote my midterm before that, otherwise I would of fallen asleep during it and that would of been shittttty.

Speaking of shitty, I'd thought of teaching you guys a new Japanese word. (Wait, Japanese words aren't shitty, its the fact that I have to study so hard for it. ) The new word for today is Oshiri. It means butt/ass (however you want to say it). It can be used like this: Japanese is a pain in my Oshiri. Or even better, I'm going to get my Oshiri kicked by my Japanese essay. Cool eh?
