i would start off by saying that all day today, i felt nauseous. but since i read those comics last night, i must rephrase that statement. there was one comic where the dad says, "i feel naseous." and his son corrects him by saying, "no dad, you mean, you feel nauseated. if you're nauseous, then you make other people sick." the mom walks by and says, "he had it right the first time." so yes, i felt nauseated. i felt pretty darn crummy, but i had to go to school, so blah.
went to history class, bundle of joy as always. he spent the first half of the class explaining the different japanese writing systems, so i doodled and ate my breakfast (mmm muffins!). i have to admit that the prof's japanese is quite good (for a non-japanese person) - his writing and his knowledge of the language proves that he has made considerable effort to ensure accuracy at all levels. he's got my respect. especially after that asian studies class in high school, oh goodness, this is such a welcome change from mr. "i'm ignorant and i don't care but i'm retiring this year so as long as i get my pension i'm happy".....ugh. words cannot describe the way that teacher butchered the beauty of japanese and chinese language and culture.
ran into eric in the caf, and he tried to get me to join the taiwanese student association. yah right. found menh-the-guest and we chilled at his favourite place - the computer labs. whee. wrote my japanese quiz, i think i did well on it... i got my quiz back from last week, 19.5/20, woohoo. yeah yeah, where's the other .5, right? stupid mistake, grr. got my journal back too...i can't believe i got such a crummy mark, rargh! oh well. language analysis was just brilliant, esp after she popped a surprise quiz on us. it wasn't for marks, we just took it up verbally, and she said it was to guage for ourselves how we were doing in class. ugh, time to hit the books. went home after that and tried to nap, but ppl kept calling every time i was almost asleep! and then someone kept msging me on msn, so i had to get up and turn my speakers off (turns out it was sean bai telling me about some visiting choir from korea and asking me if i wanted to go). my mom and uncle had gone out to dinner, so i had to make myself dinner when i woke up. then mom came home alone, and hahah, uncle went with everyone else to break open the mj tables, heheh.
yeah, that was my not-so-thrilling day. oh, found out i'm getting $5K for osap. woohoo. in 4-6 weeks, the debt thermometre will slowly be climbing up to over $16K.....now if you'll excuse me, i'm going to go hang my head over the bowl now... :*P
ps. yay slide show!! you're the best, hun!! *hugs*
pps. while i was making dinner, i saw a slab of pork sitting in the fridge, so i decided to make some jook cuz it might soothe my tumtum. we have a special pot that's kinda like a self-powered slow cooker, so i just opened it up, and it's THE most gorgeous pot of jook i've EVER made! the consistency is just beautiful, wow, it couldn't be better!! it's PERFECT!! ooh, i'm so proud of me! i just added the pork and thousand-year-old egg and chucked it back into the cooker, so i'll have some YUM breakfast tomorrow! oooh!! yay me!
