Alright, so I've been meaning to type some stuff out but kept on forgetting to do it ultimately. So recap of the week thus far. Sunday was the Oasis thanksgiving hotpot that was pretty cool considering that we had it at a house where the owners were on vacation, I thought that was pretty cool of them (Chaks). Monday was turkey day as the Americans like to refer it to, but in a more civilized country where McDonalds isn't the center of their lives we like to call it Thanksgiving. That day was pretty boring in summation, did a whole lot of nothing so overall a very productive day . Tuesday was probrably my highlight day of the week, Ben and I finally decided to get our arses into gear and get our Rock Climbing passes as well as our harnesses. Ray and Francis came along too because they wanted to get some stuff at MEC (that was where we were getting our harnesses from) So we all decided to meet at Ray's house before heading off, I got down there earlier on to get my hair cut before starting the day officially....barber did a crap job..now i'm resorted to gel to try to hide all aspects of my normal hair, but apparently that's not working too well, so now I just have to wait it out...this is going to be a long 2 weeks. After the haircut from crapville I went over to Rays. Ben came shortly after and he went to YSM to drop something off while the rest of us went ahead to get the passes. We got the the Rock Climbing Academy and they told us that the last time we visited the didn't have us in the file so we had to fill out another waiver before they could sell us the pass which costed us another $2. 2 WHOLE DOLLARS!!!!! DO I LOOK LIKE I HAVE MONEY TO BURN ON A PIECE OF PAPER!? ( >.< ) But yea after that he sold us the passes but not before another crash test on how to put on a harness and belay. Good thing we went through it again..I completly missed out on a few minor things. So after we did our test we went to MEC to get our gear...Man when you have a very limited amt of income things seem so much more expensive. That's how I felt when I was there and wanted to get everything in one shot ( harness, chalk bag/holder and shoes ) I ended up getting everything but the shoes...hope that doesn't hold me back. After that the guys decided they wanted to walk around a bit more so we headed to chinatown cuz Francis wanted to by some T-shirts. This was a long process in my eyes mainly cuz I was - man I think one of the guys around me just farted cuz I totally smell something fierce- in shorts. Before you say anything I wasn't planning on staying out that late into the day and besides when I left it was pretty warm and I wanted to wear shorts for the very last time for the year. So after Francis got his shirts we went home. haha wasn't that such a great ending for such a long blog of a day? So now it's Thursday and I'm at the library comp wasting away while I wait till I have to head to work, arg! work!!!!! wish there was some way I can just not be there but get paid for it. As for my lab today..I accidentally mixed in the raisins with our dough even though we were to mix them in after the dough was ready, it was a small mistake but my group members dwelled on that way too much and got me kinda bummed for the rest of the day..and plus the fact that I just remembered my crap-tacular haircut just topped it off in Theory class. Oh btw in case I forget, in case you all were wondering what we made today it was raisin bread, chop suey bread and braids (dough rolled out thin and braided). So that was the extent of my week thus far if anything really cool happens like me getting really cool super powers I'll be sure to write about it..speaking of super powers..everyone should watch Heroes monday nights at 9pm it's a cool new series...Watch It! |
