The greatest writers are all stoned.

So I have approximately 20 hours to fit in hours of studying, a lunch date, and sleep. Seems like enough. I’ve been working on the sleep all day, you’d think its time to study now wouldn’t you?

Fact is, every time I go to study I fall asleep. This class has got to be the most redundant course ever taken. I have learned literally nothing and I have no idea what I’m to be studying. I’m trying to read the textbook, but its keeps putting me to sleep. The course is called Internet and Survey Research. What have I learned so far? How to Google. As if I’d never used it before and the word Google hadn’t previously become part of my vocabulary. Seriously. I have no idea what I am going to do tomorrow. I don’t understand what I’m supposed to be studying here. The class lectures and textbook combine have taught me nothing. NOTHING.

On a completely different note, because I like to change subjects quickly when I’m drinking coffee… I have a lunch date planned for tomorrow and it should be amazing. I have tried the Humber Room dinners quite often, however I have never tried lunch. The Humber Room is run by the culinary students at Humber, gaining experience in restaurant atmospheres and presentation and whatnot. So far, each meal has been delectable so I expect no less from lunch. The very first time Gemma and I went on a dinner date, we had some wine, she had more than I, and when we were leaving we were asked to do an interview of our experience at the Humber Room. I am not so great speaking with people as I can be quite timid especially when asked questions that expect immediate responses, and throw in a little slurring, it gets worse. But Gemma, having consumed more than I, and being British and all, was having a little more trouble, so I figured either I try to save us both and come up with some answers that didn’t sound like drunken slurs, or let us sound like goons on what is probably the project of film students for promoting the Humber Room. We both did a fair bit of talking, I can’t remember exactly what was asked or said, but I think we pulled it off; until Gemma blew our cover when leaving (still being filmed at this point) by saying “we’re a little tipsy from the wine”. Good job. Haha

Anyways, I’m stoked for lunch. x


Fact of the day: I'm still like I used to be.
