I had my feared Islam test today. I kicked that test's ass!!! No, that's not harsh enough. Pardon the mental image, but I fucked that exam's ass!! Total exam domination!!!! Exam question genocide!!!! Pure bloody murder ( Read more... )

I was shaving my head today and I was almost finished when the motor went out on the clippers. Piece of shit. I thought Japanese products were supposed to work properly for a long time (they are the cheapest clippers in all Japan - $20 at Ninomiya - but...) Now I have some patches of hair in the back. Tiger stripes. It'll have to do for a ( Read more... )

Finished my paper last night around 9pm or so. Handed it in today. My professor is so funny. He's very active and talkative during his lectures, but everytime I've seen him outside of the classroom he seems .. what's the word.. shy? scared?. Anyway, it cracks me up ( Read more... )

I received an email from Jared "Ham" Mays this morning. He is living in Chiba prefecture, teaching English. BTW Vanessa, he sends his regards (Texas Vanessa that is). It's good to hear from him after 1.5 years of wondering what happened to him. I was kinda hoping he had drowned to death, or been strangled to death, or had immolated himself, but ( Read more... )

I meant to type "finals" as the subject of this entry, but my right hand was situated one key too far to the right, so it came out all wrong ( Read more... )

its busy. next week is dead week and then exams are after that. I'm already calulating how low I need to get on my exams to pass. I don't even have to take my last chemistry exam, because i already have enough points for a D. But I'll shoot for that B. Also got a couple friends who are leaving the country for good later this month, so I have ( Read more... )

Today I was bored, so I went to one of those dating/matchmaking websites and searched for transsexuals. It's fun to look at their faces and see if they are convincing or not. For most of them, you can tell right away - some of these girls look like ogres - but you always find a few that look like real girls.

On the Ultimate Fighter finale, Rich Franklin beat Ken Shamrock. The whole fight was really fishy though. Shamrock fell twice for no explainable reason, and the second time he fell he didn't even try to get guard and just ate punches without defending himself. I really hope it wasn't a work. This sport will die fast if rumors of works start to ( Read more... )

I got my Islam midterm back. It was a B. Kinda sucks. I don't mind a B, but this was exactly 80 points, which makes a final C for the class very possible. I don't mind a C, but I dislike it just enough to say that it kinda sucks ( Read more... )

Saw "The City of God" this weekend. Its about gangs in the slums of Rio de Janeiro. It's good. You have to appreciate any movie that has the balls to show an exexution-style murder of a kid under 10. It's the bloodiest movie I've seen in years. There has to be at least 100 murders in the movie, which is a lot even for a war movie (which this ( Read more... )
