hectic few days...

it has definitely been a hectic few days. i evenutally got over the flu bug that seemed to have infiltrated every instructor in vfs. this year is all about balance, and i've been trying to balance a healthy amount of work, social life and personal stuff.

tourism vancouver is doing its annual dine-out vancouver promo, so the blogger crew will be meeting up. as always, gratuitous pictures will be posted.

i've been working and when i'm not i'm eating. i've been gaining weight like an elephant in a peanut pool. wait, do they really eat that many peanuts? well, you get the idea.

after my last class tonight, i'm going to collapse and relax into the couch.

sucks...

you know it sucks being sick. apparently the flu bug is coming 'round. so i've been out of commision for the last few days. it takes me a few days to recoup from the flu, during those few days i've been:
  • watching a lot of movies
  • listening to a lot of crappy music
  • catching up with work
  • drugging up on nyquil -also known as green death
as you can probably tell, i've been bored out of my mind.

damn apple...damn you all to...

i wonder what it's like to be steve jobs and have a whole cult of imac-humpin' people (including me) hanging on your every word... worldwide. i can't believe that people just waiting to whip out their credit cards to buy the next versions of useless software.

i shouldn't talk though because i'm sitting here, credit card in hand, waiting to buy the new mac mini, hitting refresh while praying for this 500 server unavailable to go away.

snow? snow!

oh god, i was flipping through the radio this morning on my drive to work and every weather report said snow by the end of this week. this seriously sucks the casbah. i enjoy snow as much as the next guy but people in vancouver take it as an excuse to throw away any driving sense out the window and pistol whip it to death twice.

in other news, i'm currently listening to the new snoop dogg cd and i have to say it has got to be one of the better albums. i have this sudden urge to drop/pop it like it's hot; whatever "it" might be. i know it's hot though.
