Surfing the Net and Other Mundane Activities

Another sorta productive day.  I woke up at 9 but figured it was too early for my brain to be even remotely functioning so I went back to sleep.  Woke up again at 11 and bummed around the house for a bit.  Went to the mall at 2 because it's my friend's last day working at her store so a bunch of us wanted to take advantage of the very generous discount she receives there.  So I bought a Luongo jersey and a sweet North Face goretex windbreaker (that I still spent waay too much on).  I felt kinda bad: when we got there we all sort of split up and while I was looking for a good windbreaker one of the sales guys was trying so hard to be super nice and help me but of course he wasn't going to receive any commission off his sale since I was getting it at at the employee discount price, which made me feel pretty terrible.

After that headed over to the library to study for my ling final tomorrow.  Took a while to get going (read: spent a couple hours wading through unread emails and surfing the net... oh wow that phrase makes me sound so un-hip but oh well) but once I got going my brain kicked into high gear.  About four hours of studying later and I'm pretty sure I know everything I need to.  It's really not that difficult of a course if you listen in class and have a reasonably analytical mind.  Went home, had dinner, and I've pretty much been bumming around since.  My final isn't until 7pm tomorrow so I pretty much have the entire day to review.  I feel like I should be worried about my lack of worry, but I'm just going to attribute it to the high calibre of studying I accomplished earlier :)

Oh something that made me lulz while studying: the name of the Hawaiian king who conquered the other islands in the 19th century was named Kamehameha, which totally reminds me of Dragonball Z.

Procrastination and Pining

It's funny how much as students we whine and complain about how little time there is between our tests come finals season, yet with the time we do have we tend to waste by aimlessly checking facebook, playing WoW, searching for funny videos of cats, etc. My last final was on Sunday; Accounting, which was pretty brutal. My next one is this Friday. ie., I have FIVE whole days to study to totally ace this final. What have I been doing for the past two days? Well, I've caught up on sleep, cleaned my room, updated facebook, and searched for funny videos of cats. It just feels like too much time!

I am super stoked for summa to finally roll around though. My first official day of summer I'll be suiting up in a mascot suit (yes, I am a part-time mascot) for the Fingerling Festival in Port Moody, then meeting some friends downtown for some poutine to celebrate us having made it through first year. Then on Sunday or Monday (plans are still pretty much up in the air) I'll be road trippin' down to Seattle with one of my friends to check out Wong Fu Productions at the University of Washington. I still don't really know who they are but she convinced me to go, which wasn't too hard to do since as long as I get to shop at the outlets and at the Nordstrom Rack, I'm happy. And then when I get back I'm watching the Canucks at GM Place! SOO stoked, I've never been to a playoff game before! It's game 4, so it's gonna be rowdy - woohoo!

Ok, I guess I've wasted enough time today. Gonna go try to be productive and at least do my nails. Studying can start tomorrow.
