chamomile, irish breakfast, oolong :D

chamomile: comfort movie? The first season of The Wire. It’s not a movie, whatever whatever, but it’s what I throw in when I need something to watch and I’m feeling like butt. irish breakfast: what country do you want to visit? England? France? Spain? I just want off the continent and over to Europe at some point in my life. oolong: what are you hoping to be doing in ten years? You are all very interested in me in ten years! Obviously my solution is just to come up with three different answers, so: Third scenario: I will be making so much money self-publishing bad porn to the latest generation of the internet-unaware that I will never have to write another essay ever again. My penname will be something terrible and punny and possibly about owls.

moving??

Thinking about it. Less than charmed with my apartment building right now, considering what it costs vs. living conditions, and I gotta find somewhere cheaper. Which will probably mean finding a roommate or something.

I wouldn't mind being somewhere else either. I'm close to campus but like, there's fuck all to do around there and I wanna feel up the rest of Ottawa. Especially if I'm gonna be here another 4-5 years!

sadness :( why the second degree burns? injury from tea kettles?

Close! Injury from trying to use my mom's stove and not realizing the door's higher than my oven's is and flash-frying my elbow because I wasn't paying attention to that extra inch of height.

omg the killers are my jam. My roommate freshman year has an intense hatred for them b/c of the amount of times I played Human and Read My Mind. Also…75 minutes a bit exact, no? :D

Mr. Brightside for life and reasons I don't even want to put into words, man. 

75 minutes. On the dot. Always. 

Nah it just seems to take me that long to clue in + start figuring out what to say + figure out how to say it. That's usually about halfway through class and time for a break, so I can slink out before anyone asks me to explain more, while avoiding giving the prof the sense that I am putting it off for so long that they need to talk to me about participating. 

...it's a system.

this'll have to be a quickie b/c i'm running late. Soo I shall ask 14, 38 (was there a 38?? I hope so) and 13 and then I shall be running off to catch my train and attend this lecture. ta! xx

Enjoy lecture! 

14. What was your favourite TV show when you were a child?

I don’t remember watching a lot of TV but I’m pretty sure I was more than into Goosebumps, The Secret World of Alex Mack, the weird adaptation of Animorphs that lived oh so briefly, and anything else that might have been on YTV in the early 90s! 

38. Do you eat breakfast every morning?

YES OF COURSE.

13. What’s the worst grade you got on a test?

Probably somewhere in the 30-40% range. I started skipping a lot of classes in high school but would sometimes show up in a class just in time to try to bullshit through a physics or chem test! I know I landed a 35% in IB Math once. 

(And then he never mathed again.) 

(How the fuck did I get into university.)
