The Natural Order of Things


So the next (and final) semester of school begins in just under a week! I'll give you a recap of what I did during my break!

I finally finished my exams for this semester! My first exam was Religion:


The Religion exam was rather simple and straight-forward (expected, considering the Church is all for "straight"). Unfortunately, "God" was not a choice on most of the multiple choice part of the exam. If it was there, I'm sure that would have been the answer to everything. Allow me to explain:

Who made the world?




Who is at the center of the Church?




Whose skin is used as paper for the Bible?




Who shot JR?


You get the point. Anyways, my next exam was Chemistry:

The most important element.

Chemistry was okay. I must admit, however, that I am a bit of a chemist and as such, I was able to concoct a wonderful set of answers using nothing more than carbon, cellulose and brain juice. Therefore, I was able to avoid the anally-administered sodomy provided by the dreaded Physics exam:


Yeah. Fuck physics.

That being said, NO MORE EXAMS (until June)


I can honestly say that if I do not have an exam or work a specific day, I would wake up and watch some trash on Maury, mocking the ridiculous nature of the people who choose to expose their troubled lives for the world to see (and laugh at). I know, its cruel, but how can you not laugh at a white woman who thinks another white man is the father of her half-black child? There's also those special episodes which I lovingly call "Guess Who's the Tranny." Those episodes are always fun, though some of them are pretty easy to spot:


...and then there are those episodes about "Out of Control Teens!!!"

I thought she was hungry for crabs.
I also spent countless hours completing Battlestar Galactica. It is officially the greatest thing ever made. Ever. And it has Lucy Lawless, whose Kiwi accent is just smokin' - not Cheech and Chong smokin'. Sup Lucy.


Yes, I spent hours watching BSG. I physically felt like Jabba the Hutt right after this marathon, so to say, yet the satisfaction of completing the series made me go one step up from 'Jabba' into 'slob.'

Anyways, I also dropped by my friend's house every now and then, and his family is host to a whole batch of foreign exchange students. Every time I go there, I feel like I'm in the freakin' UN. This time, he had three students: a South Korean who watched sports all the time, a Brazilian who is part Iranian (I know, weird combo huh?), and a... well... I don't know. The last one doesn't speak English (SURPRISE!).

The Brazilian student, whose name is the very-Brazilian "Amir," is the only one I've talked to many times, probably because he has superior language skills than the other two and is clearly much more socially adept. I had actually first met him while I was at work on Christmas Eve, though I did not know him at the time. Then when I got home, he showed up with my friend's family who we had invited over for ritual-time / a party.

Suffice it to say, I was surprised. He too, was also surprised to see that I had some understanding about Brazil. He was like a a little child on Christmas.

Wait a minute...

Anyways, I was pleased to have a nice discussion with him that day, and the other days I went to my buddy's house. I actually felt that this trivial knowledge had come to use for a mere 26 minutes! I had felt very successful - proud, almost:


So yeah, that's pretty much what I was up to during my break. Typical. Makes me seem more like a lazy fuck than I already am! :)

Sorry about the randomness of the post today. This is me with too much sleep. And if you couldn't infer from that, I can work off of little sleep, like Elmo. I'll make sure to put some common sense in the next one, by that time, I'll be back to my regular routine of sleeping late, waking up early, bitching about transit, and insulting the most vulnerable aspects of society. *wink wink nudge nudge pompadours*

And before I leave you all tonight (or today, wherever the hell you are reading this from. Except Egypt. There's no interwebz in Egypt thanks to Egyptian Stalin and his dyed hair), I'll leave you all with a final thought:

"If someone calls you short, headbutt them in the crotch."

Smile!


So its been ages - eons, almost - that I've written a blog post, so I apologize for the wait! Please excuse the disorganized nature of this post - I'm rusty!

It's the last day of 2010 and what a year it has been! I think that it is safe to say that it has been the most exciting and enjoyable year of my life (so far, as long as I don't get nuked by an invading robot species)! Obviously, there are ups and downs, but everything is just a part of the experience!

When I look back on the year, I just smile!

For 2011, I've given myself a few resolutions! Why don't we pull a Dr. Phil and analyze each one?!

"Doctur Fill's Rez-uh-loo-shun Remedees"


Resolution #1: Stop swearing (or, at least, swear less), which sort of means that I should complain less. Right? In my world, neither can exist without the other. What a fucked up world I live in...

Those of you who know me understand that there are times when I turn into a brain-demented slimeball who swears like a pirate, or an angry Italian with road rage. I can imagine that neither of those scenarios are beneficial to myself or to all the creatures around me. Humans put on their invisible earplugs in order to drown out my incessant rambling and animals run away from me as if I was a dangerous hunter, seeking to wrap myself in their hides.

Unfortunately, not all animals are able to escape from my hunting skills:

She needs a life insurance policy. Thanks L. Mo!

Resolution #2: Be a little more straight-forward in how I speak. Life is like a country road: driving straight is the best course. Wait, not really... On second thought, that would be bad. You could crash or something. Well, I'm Asian, so my driving skills would probably make me crash a car at some point in my life. That was a terrible analogy.

Another problem of mine is that I can be very "political" in how I respond to other people. In other words, I take as long as I can to get the answer to any question. For example, someone might ask me, "What is 2 + 2 equal to?" Being a retarded fool, I'd say, "Well, it depends what you mean by 'two.' Are we speaking of the numerical two or are we referring to a non-numerical two, such as too and to. Whatever the case, use a freakin' calculator, genius!"


I could have just said "four," but I'm simply weird. If you cannot understand what the hell I'm talking about, we'll use this blue elephant for example. To you, it might be a blue elephant. To me... well, it's still a blue elephant, but it would take me ten minutes to get there.


So the next time I see a blue elephant, rather than ransacking my mind for memories that make me look like an acid-spitting child-eating monster...


... I'll just say, "Hey! It's a blue elephant!"


Resolution #3: Give back. Instead of harvesting brains or capturing souls, I will start giving back to whoever I can: the community, the school, and those who are close to me! For some, though, it might already be too late...


Yeah, I'd like to be a little more participatory (what kind of freakin' word is that?) everywhere I go, especially in terms of volunteering, supporting and just giving back to everyone and everything. I was planning on making this an Easter promise or whatever, but I decided that I should just do it now! Besides, Easter is for eating those delicious chocolate bunnies:


As I wrap up this post, there's a few people (or creatures) that I would like to thank for this awesome year:

  • To the Great Burger, for being my mentor and master!
  • To my Team of Misfits, for being so damn good!
  • To my Super-Duper Department of Demented Dudes and Dudettes, for making everyday an exciting and enjoyable one, especially through those long-ass rehearsals!
  • To the Bird Lady, the Muppets and the Bright One, for giving me great advice and support when I finally hit rock bottom.
  • To the Home Team, for simply being there!
  • To the Siblings-Who-Aren't-Really-Siblings, for making me smile, even though neither of you probably never realized it!
  • To the Readers of this blog,  for putting up with my idiotic antics and listening to me complain about the stupidest things.

Happy New Year!
