blah

you ever have one of those "blah" weeks? well if you know what i'm talking about, then you know how my week has been. blah.

this year has gone by so fast. just like last year. but at the same time, i'm so ready for summer. as of now, i don't really have any definite plans for the next few months, but i just know i need a break from school. overall, i just feel really burnt out. anyone else get that feeling?

these next 2 weeks are also gonna require a lot of self-control. basketball playoffs start tomorrow, and there's at least 2 televised games every day for the next week. SIGH.

so i turned in an extra credit paper for my history class. the rule is you gotta get at least a B on the paper to receive the extra credit. i got my paper back..77. what the heck...so i go in for office hours, and my TA says to me: "i've decided to give you the B." yay. 5 minutes later, he says to me: "actually, i'm sorry, i really can't give you a B. this is a high-C paper." ...yay. what does that even mean?? i mean there's not even a grading rubric for grading the paper, so i don't even know where he coulda possibly came up with a grade of a 77. bleh.

ever since canoebq, i have basically only been wearing sleeveless t-shirts. why? no, not because i got amazingly swoll all of a sudden, but because i got a huge sunburn on both my shoulders. it hurt so much i couldn't even wear a backpack, or even sleeves. and now, one look at my shoulders and you would think my body's rotting away or something.


but i guess my week hasn't been ALL terrible. as i mentioned earlier, NBA playoffs start tomorrow, and at 4:30, the rockets and mavs are playing game 1 of their best of 7 series.


sorry dallas, maybe next year?

jenny wong = owned

i just owned jenny wong.

the setting:

so imagine with me if you can, my hallway in jester west 5th floor. off the elevators, you go through the glass doors, down the long hallway, and my room is the final door on the right. right next to the glass door is a study lounge.

the scenario:

i'm sitting at my computer doing my accounting homework, when all of a sudden, i realize that i haven't showered since softball practice earlier in the day. i then realize that i literally have nothing else to wear, ie, no more clean clothes. period. so it's time to do some laundry. i gather some of my clothes and head down towards the laundry room. i stuff all my clothes into the washer, start the machine, and exit the room. i hear ariel's voice around the corner. so i take a few steps, and lo and behold, there is little mermaid yang, talking on her cell phone right outside the study lounge. i then crack open the study lounge door and peak in, and i see jenny wong.

the ownage:

the door is still only open maybe a few centimeters, just enough so that i can peak in and see her, but she doesn't know who's at the door spying. jenny takes a few cautious and somewhat confused looks towards the door, basically deciding whether to just ignore whoever it is or go back to her studying and act like she doesn't care. of course, after maybe 30 seconds, her curiosity gets the best of her, and she gets up from her chair and starts towards the door.

at this point, i close the door and race off towards my room. after only a few steps, i hear the study lounge door open again, so i know i can't make it all the way back to my room and into the safety of my bedsheets. so i dive into one of those elbows that jester is so famous for. there's silence for a few moments.

this must be when jenny was registering all her thoughts, which is surprising because you would think the tought process would be instantaneous given the short distance from her brain to the rest of her body. i guess she finally decides that it was probably me or peter or xiao, so she bolted towards our rooms.

i waited in the shadows as the steps grew louder and louder, closer and closer. then as she leaped past my little nook, her head turned ever so slightly, and i jumped out and roared my most ferocious "AHHHH!!!" she did a sorta 180 in the air and fell to the floor with a helpless and totally frightened "AHHHH!!!" that xiao and eric later confirmed hearing vividly from the depths of their room.

and i don't know why i just wasted 10 minutes of my precious homework time typing this out, but i think it's probably still well worth it. i petition that we change the word "owned" to "jennywong-ed" from now on. anyone with me?

::edit::
Splash23J: the short distance between my brain and the rest of my body!?!??!!
