The weather these few days is crazy. isnt it supposed to be the rainy season? so why is it that the sun shines so brightly that i cant even look straight without literally seeing white? i find it quite ironic that it's only in the november-december period when i start getting sunburns during training. and the heat really saps everything out of you; i almost never sleep during the afternoon on normal occasions, but when i got home from training today i sat on the couch and opened my eyes an hour later. getting hyped up about going to korea tomorrow, looking forward to escaping this furnace and (hopefully) seeing snow for the first time in my life :)
no walk-in practices till the 18th! this means that i wont be affected by my korea trip and hockey trainings as well. haha, quite amazed at this happenstance cos i was getting a bit worried about schedule clashes. in hindsight, i really have to say that this has been my most packed holiday ever, even more so than some of my school terms. which of course goes to show how much of a no-lifer i usually am, but admitting that you have a problem is the first step to overcoming it?
a 4-4 outing is in the works! and this time, we might even be getting a few teachers to join us. hope it gets followed through to the end.
Random funny thingy: if you havent heard of Craigslist, it's a website where people post about stuff that they want (could be to buy/sell, hire, give away or pretty much anything else) and other members respond. something like the online answer to a flea market, but much more comprehensive. of course, when there are so little criteria, there are bound to be posts that are a little... odd. some users actually have spambots that pose as women looking for men, only to use they email addresses they collect to sell to ad companies who proceed to spam the poor, horny victims with adverstisements for viagra and other stuff. here's a video of a guy reading out an actual Craigslist offer from a spambot gone hilariously wrong.
for your reference, here's the original text post of the offer. the attention to detail is amazing (notice how he squints when he says "seats" because it's spelled "seet"), and the rubber duckie at the end always gets me no matter how many times i see the video.
