G

I officially found a new addition to my "I hate" list today
- essay questions that can be answered in 10 words, but which need to be answered in ten pages.

Yesterdays episode of The Big Bang Theory was terribly disappointing, considering I waited 3 weeks for it. I think I'm starting to like How I Met Your Mother more. I Hate the actress who plays Lily, something about the way she looks or acts is really unpleasant to the eye. Atleast to my eye.

Studying in an Immigrant country, I'm amazed at how the "Indians" here, who haven't spent more than 2 whole months of their lives in India are way more Indian than I am. Apart from their basic day-to-day habits, they sincerely watch the latest Bollywood movies, know all the Hindi songs by heart, attend Indian dance classes and keep track of all the celebrity gossip and politics.

Although I've quit Farmville, I occasionally adopt lost cows, baby turkeys, tortoise and penguins from the fb home page.

I played the game Second Life for exactly 2 hours, I was shoo-ed off when , in my town and I meet this lady, and the conversation goes,
me:Hi, I'm blah blah..,so how long have you been playing this game ?
she: What u talking about? so you think this is a 'game'?
me:I 'know' it's a game, casue I just downloaded and installed it but I'm figuring out what I'm supposed to do.
she:If you don't get the seriousness of it, don't come here. Go back to where ever your from. * stomps away *.
I secretly wanted to just follow her and beat her up, but a little freaked out that I might just become her if I hung around there long enough, I un-installed it and now play sane scrabble online till I find another game that ill eventually get addicted to. If only Jenga could be played online.

My first improv comedy show happened by chance in Montreal last summer and I've been for many since. They are usually cheap if not free for students and would recommend everyone living abroad to go to one in their city. A good stress buster and fun way to encourage up-coming comedians.

I'm currently reading a book called Eat, pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert which is pretty awesome and the strong coffee I just made with 3 teaspoons of sugar is giving me a headache. so bye.
