So....Tired

I took this photo after Elaine's party. This was after vanessa was totally out of it and just fell asleep. My brother was very funny about it.

My first post back at waterloo. Its nice being back here, a tad boring since no one I know has gotten in yet, but still fun being away from home. Its also nice knowing I don't have to do crap work for 4 months. I have missed math very much. The last few days have been quite exciting.

It all started friday. It was my last day of work and it was quite relaxed. I got my work term evaluation and did okay. I got a Very Good which is about 5/7 which is decent I think. Usually 7/7 is quite rare. After getting my evaluation and was getting ready to head home my coworker gave me a $50 gift card to best buy which was very nice. She said they usually give something nice to all their coop students so I was very happy. When I left and headed home I played some kingdom hearts before getting ready to head to Elaine's for a crazy party.

We all went out for dinner before going to Elaine's. We went to Tim Hortons/Wendy's and got some food. While there we met up with Felix and Redford. After talking for a bit they too decided to come to Elaine's party and we all headed out. Once we got there a few of us started playing poker, others played fight night, while some sat around and played with Elaine's hamster. After a few more people got to Elaines they started to drink. There weren't too many people drinking. Elaine, Vanessa, Willie, Redford, William, Nelson Philip and Felix were the only people that drank. It got pretty ridiculous after awhile. When I walked back to the room they were taking shots it was pretty crazy. They had spelt out Elaine's name in shot glasses, so there were quite a lot of shots. Also they would just be drinking like crazy. It was funny because they were playing some weird game, somewhat like war. So whoever lost had to take a shot. Since everyone thought Elaine was sober she had to take two shots.

Towards the end of the night all the girls were totally gone. I can't even begin to describe how crazy these people were. Vanessa and Elaine couldn't even walk, redford would not stop yelling, philip was just really red, and nelson was also somewhat red.

Slowly things winded down and we all had to quickly vacate Elaines and head back to my place.

At my house we all talked for a while. Vanessa was outside trying to sober up. After an hour or so she was quickly rushed into my house for various reasons. Nelson being hero sat by her and made sure she was okay. As the night dragged on slowly more people left and the few remaining just talked casually. Eventually my brother came home and recounted a few of his funny drinking stories. We all laughed and eventually after Vanessa threw up once she passed out and slept on my brother. It was quite funny because he was saying to himself "This is a very expensive sweater...." At around 4:30 Vanessa reluctantly decided to sleep over and everyone headed home. My brother being a light sleeper slept in her room to make sure she was okay. I sleep like a rock so I couldn't really do that.

The next day was pretty relaxed. I wasn't awake when vanessa left sadly. Saturday I had my driving lesson and an optometry appointment. After both of those a few of us went to the park to play some baseball. I was shocked at how much fun it was. I was complete crap though, but hitting the ball is so fun. I can't wait to play again.

After some baseball people headed over and we all talked. We all told elaine everything that happened at her party. She couldn't remember anything. She can't even remember how much she drank which was pretty funny.

As the night progressed more people came and it was a great night. Lots of games, talking, relaxing, great way to spend my last day in toronto. We rewatched FF7 AC. Joanna and philip almost fell asleep which was shocking! AC was intense! Watching it again made me want to play FF7.

Now that I am back in waterloo its time to do some work. I need to quickly fix up my work report and send it out.

CN Tower

Update 10:32 A.M: I just handed in my work report. God I hope I do okay.

I took this photo of the CN tower outside my building.

Been quite some time since my last post, been a tad lazy and also didn't have any photos worth uploading. Not much has been happening these last few days. Saturday was quite fun because Vanessa and elaine came by and they were quite drunk. It was very funny seeing them act. My brother came in every so often and talked to them. They were quite drunk, but not drunk enough to do anything too stupid. Towards the end of the night as they were leaving elaine trips and falls down the stairs. It was damn funny. I doubt I will let her live that one down.

Sunday was spent mainly working on my stank work report which I must hand in tomorrow. Only 4 more days and I'm free for 4 months. God I hate working. Its not interesting enough. I would much rather do something where I learn some new skills. Hopefully I don't fail my work report. Only time will tell. Now I must get some well deserved sleep. I have been playing Kingdom Hearts 2 too much.

Expect more up to date photos of the next few days.

Must cover face...

Crazy people covering their faces while I attempt to take a photo. It has now gotten to a point where even if people cover there face I will still take a photo.

Thursday I headed to my cousins after work to eat dinner and play some board games. For dinner we got takeout from Young Thailand. As always dinner was excellent and was accompanied with great stories from both my brother and my cousins. After the meal we played an intense game of settlers. Surprisingly enough I finally won. I suspect a lot of it had to do with luck though because I started off really good.

Friday is a bit of a blur right now so if I remember what happened I will blog about it. I recall though that friday night we played poker and I was doing quite well. I was up a fair bit at the beginning then dipped down quite substantially. However I lucked out towards the end and finished off winning $8.

Saturday afternoon was spent filming stuff for raymonds poker video. It was pretty fun filming again. Daniel was given the opportunity to slap me in the face. This was quite funny because he did a bunch of small slaps but when we started filming he did a semi-real slap. What sucks though was jimmy accidentally taped over that scene so it was never actually put into the final video.

Once again saturday was another poker night. I was playing for a bit but had to stop because raymond needed some help editing the video. I think I will probably stop playing poker now though. Its not that fun.

Sunday was a trip to pmall for some chocolate and general walking around. I met up with raymond at orbit and we both headed back to my place to finish editing the movie. After a few hours of struggling and stupid problems we finally finished the short 3 minute video.

Today was simply a dull day of work. It was great that the subways were empty. I suspect lots of people took easter monday off. I can't complain, I hate crowded subways. When I got home I played kingdom hearts for quite some time. This game is awesome. I can't wait to continue playing tomorrow.

A shiny building

I took this photo while wallking down Queen St on my way back from Hairy Tarantula's. The RBC building is a really nice building. I have no idea what this building is.

Today was a great day. I finally finished reading my Love hina manga, and I must say it was an excellent series. I haven't read or seen a good romance series in a while so reading the love hina manga was great. The manga was quite different from the anime. After finishing the manga it is actually phenomenally better then the anime. The manga is a much better romance. Its funny, but after a certain point it becomes much more romance oriented and from time to time quite sad. The best part was the manga had an excellent ending.

After finishing the love hina manga I felt quite empty. Now there isn't much for me to do. When I got home I watched some anime then watched a decent episode of lost.

Now I must watch some more anime. Also I must find some good romance series.

Relaxing

I took this photo of edward while he was in my room talking to kings and philip. This was during the time everyone was downstairs playing poker which edward hates, and also while people were in the basement drinking which edward hates even more. That was a great night

It has been quite some time since my last post. This large delay is mainly due to the fact that I don't have any photos I really want to post online. I am currently too lazy to make a post about everything that has been going on since my last post so this will be a quick overview of the weekend.

Friday ryan adrian daniel edward jimmy and I headed to all star wings for dinner. After our last trip we felt that we were ready for level 4 and level 5 wings. It was quite a shock. Jimmy ordered 25 wings called "God of thunder." As soon as those wings came onto our table we would breathe in and feel burning. Those wings just smelt like they were on fire. Edward ordered Jamaican jerk chicken wings assuming that it would taste like jerk chicken. He was greatly mistaken. The wings he ordered were sour and very very nasty. Edward is a trooper though and scared down a good chunk of them. Adrian's chicken wings were quite nice. Not spicy and normal tasting. Dano's was a tad spicy and I found it didn't have much flavor. The greatest part of dinner was when jimmy gave edward a god of thunder wing and put it on his plate. We all continued talking and didn't really pay much attention to him eat it. After a little while someone said the never actually saw him eat it. Edward being a fool does his funny "What!? lets change the subject" type of talk and we knew he never actually ate it. After watching him for about 5 minutes we realized he had picked up the wing and put it in a different basket. We were all laughing for quite some time.

Saturday my brother finally got back from his long ass trip to sydney and japan. It was funny seeing him again, it was like he hadn't really been gone all that long. When we got back home we sat around and talked for a bit then I started calling people over. We ended up going to this pho that everyone seemed to dislike but its not that big a deal. When we got back some people played a bit of poker for fun. Others sat around and talked. The rest of the day is a big haze right now.

Sunday was pretty quiet. Vanessa wanted to check out cellphones so me her and simon went to pmall and walked around for a bit. She saw a few phones she liked but didn't really bother picking one up. I got a box of hello pandas and then we went to get some sushi for dinner. We went to this place at midland and finch and it was pretty good. Me and simon split a pound of shashimi for 15$ which was quite nice. I hadn't had sushi in a long time. After dinner I went home to find shawn talking to my brother. We all talked about randomness for a little while then shawn headed home and I went to sleep.

Today was a pretty dull day. I took my camera to work but didn't get around to taking any photos. I need to buy some better film. When I got home I was having a bit of a headache, but I still had to cook so I started warming up some water and then went to the other room. When I got back it turns out I had accidently switched on the wrong element so I quickly turned that off and then picked up the handle of the pot to move it. My next mistake was not noticing that the handle was right on top of the heated element. Needless to say I got nice burn on my hand. My hand is okay now and the headache seems to have subsided so hopefully I will be able to get some decent sleep now.
