Hey Everyone,I know its been ages since I've written in my blog so I thought to myself, why not indulge my favourite fans again. I apologize for the hiatus I've taken but let me tell you, there is a shitload of stuff pissing me off so here it comes.First of all, this weather BLOWS. It's freaking cold outside, my social life has been shot to shit, and all I want to do is hibernate in my room. So

Warning, this post contains mature subject matter, viewer discretion is advised!How I wish they had signs like that in the Ryerson computer lab to warn me of the atrocities that take place there. This is how the story unfolds...Late one January evening, I was in the business building computer lab working away on a Communications assignment that was long overdue. Since it was nearing 10 pm, the

With every stressful exam period comes a riveting blog entry to accompany it. One thing I would like to bring up at this time is the misinterpretation of abbreviations. Lets start with some common terms. For example "LOL" - laugh out loud. "BRB" - be right back. Easy enough right? "TTYL" - talk to you later. "ROFL" - rolling on the floor laughing, and so on & so forth. Now people use these

Honestly,What is it with people and shopping carts? There is some sort of delusional possessive paranoia that's embraces you as soon as your fingers touch the handle. I don't know if its a personal thing? Maybe some people don't have cars so they feel like shopping carts are the next best thing? Maybe they are a defense mechanism? Some people subtly relieve their pent up aggression by ramming

So here I am, slogging away over a TELUS Mobility power point presentation (at UTM of course) that is due for my Operations Management class. I feel like my team is totally incompetent, not to mention I feel that a certain team member needs a refresher course on personal space. Its great you feel a sense of camaraderie because we're in the same group, but really I'd be better off pretending you

"easier said than typed"It's really quite sad how the rapid expanse of msn messenger has caused a significant decline in the use of proper English grammar. I'm sure it wont be long before Bill Gates adds a spell check button to the msn conversation boxes. Speaking of which, I've noticed that at times when I converse with people, I can visualize our conversations in the form of instant messages

So, I've noticed that I have issues with writing. Well not writing as in transferring my thoughts into a legible format but the act of actually picking up a pen and transcribing something onto a piece of paper. For starters I would like to clarify that I have nice writing. Its small & curly and a little difficult to decipher but pretty nonetheless (picture to follow). However, what I have come to

An in-depth account of a finance student's experiences while studying for their securities and options exam at 12 am.Observation #1 - People in the library are loudI will supplement this observation with an example. At approximately 12:47 am, a young female came rocketing down the library in pursuit of her male companion with the ferocity of a young lion cub attacking its first prey. Clearly this

ok so i wanted to take a nap and usually, i read before i go to bed to help me fall asleepButmy lamp is really bright and i wanted to dim it so i though let me put something over it, and since my sock was on the ground i decided to use that as a shade.......not a bright ideaJust as i was drifting off to bed i thought something smelled funny, i knew my mom wasnt cooking so i was like what the hell

the life of a black & decker toaster

2005-02-04T13:14:00.000-05:00

So I have decided to suck it up and get a loong with my toaster. Instead of toasting my bread and other munchables on the "toast" option I have made the execustive decision to use the oven setting instead. This means no weird clicky noises while my toast is toasting, and an all around better toasted piece of bread. Ok Moving on Last night at about 1 am, I had an unsatiable desire to have some

status update

2004-12-02T03:00:00.000-05:00

Ok so its now 3 am and I think I've calmed down a bit but that doesnt change the fact that i still HATE my toaster. Its ruining my life. I have resorted to eating cereal that looks like it should be in a bowl labelled "Fido"

I hate my toaster!

2004-12-02T02:43:00.000-05:00

It's 2:40 am and I think I'm about to cry. I just came home from a particulary draining session of studying. I have to wake up at 7 am for class and i have a finance test at 1:30 and a retail exam at 3:30. I am RAVENOUS. There is nothing in my fridge except for peanut butter & eggs, neither of which I'm particularly fond of. Everything good is in the freezer but I hate my new toaster and I'm

Do you think the way you eat a sandwich says anything about you? I was watching SNL and eating a chicken sandwich last night when I noticed that the pattern in which I was chewing was quite absurd. For the most part I've noticed through my detailed observations that people usually eat a sandwich "side to side" working their way progressively downwards. But when I looked at the way I was

Man o man has this been an eventful week. Lets take it from the top and start with Tuesday. So as a lot of you may know, I take pride in labeling myself the Queen of Multitasking. I mean it so inefficient to only be doing on thing at a time. Like for instance, I can breathe, talk, walk, sing, eat, read a book, and type on msn all at the same time - now that's what I call cool. Anyways needless

Weeee! So this is the first time in 3 years that I learnt how to change the template of my blog! Y@@@Y (special thanks to bAdam). So yes its been quite a while since I have come here to spill my thoughts. One thing I've noticed is that I am becoming increasingly hostile towards people who cant spell. Hmmm.....To me it shows some sort of an intellectual deficiency... I don't know maybe I'm just

I think that I have serious aggression issues that need to be dealt with. Unfortunately, seeing as that I threatened to use bodily harm on my anger management therapist, that avenue is no longer an option for me. Suggestions will be appreciated

2004-02-10T22:02:00.000-05:00

I have noticed that no matter how hard you to try to study in peace & quiet there is always one mindless idiot who manages to ruin everything. Today I went to the library to do some readings for my business law class fully knowing that I was behing by like 9 chapters and need to get cracking. Im lucky to find an empty table so I settle down and prepare myself to be there fore the few hours or so.

Subject: Canadian Apology On behalf of Canadians everywhere I'd like to offer an apology to the United States of America. We haven't been getting along very well recently and for that, I am truly sorry. I'm sorry we called George Bush a moron. He is a moron but it wasn't nice of us to point it out. If it's any consolation, the fact that he's a moron shouldn't reflect poorly on the people

2002-12-09T21:26:00.000-05:00

Honestly, the worst experience a struggling student can ever have is the situation that I have been faced with: studying for finals in a library full of noisy inconsiderate people. For God's sake this is not the DOCKS where you can go looking for booty calls to your heart's content. The demeanour that people have here is complete unacceptable. This is a LIBRARY not a social gathering. People come

2002-11-14T09:33:00.000-05:00

Hey, whats the deal with people who send you ONE sentence e mails. I really cant deal with that. I feel like telling them -thanks for the heart felt reply. I never knew you had such an expansive vocabulary! Anyways as usual I am slogging away leading my usual mundane life until i find some way to strike it rich he he he ( and killing my parents for their life insurance doesnt count ). - yeah as

Why are people so damn oblivious to the fact that they can be so freaking annoying sometimes? Like honestly this month I have been so busy with having so many guests over and people are just making these crazy ass demands on me. I one day I turned into freakin Budget car rental. Not only did I lose my room, my car, and my bathroom, but any privacy I once possessed has slowly dissipated as well.

2002-05-21T19:42:00.000-04:00

Oh yeah speaking of old Tv shows - does anyone remember fraggle rock? That was also like another super cool show. It wa sthe one with the little fraggles (think muppet like but more primitive looking) and they lived in their own little rocky colony. But that was actually underground in the corner of the post office or something like that. And the post man had a dog and that big fluffy dog would

Ok you know what really really annoys me...? When you are walking down the street and say someone on a bicycle is headed the same way so you move to one side to let them pass. But those damn bicyclers can never make up their minds of which way they want to go! This morning I was stumbling my way to class, after being up all night to write 2 essays due for my deviations of childhood development

2002-05-07T11:54:00.000-04:00

OK OK so the last time I updated my log was like last year...but that doesnt mean I didnt want to! Seriously! My life has just been really hectic for the past umm like 5 months hehehe. Anyways I have vowed to myself to regularly update my log for the sake of my loyal fans who still e mail me to see how I am doing ( I love you guys!) Anyways there were a few things I wanted to bring up today. Does

2001-12-01T17:01:00.000-05:00

YO YO YO!!! Hey guys sorry about the delay but I have been MAD busy! There is so much stuff going on right now I cant even start. Exams are totally screwing me over! However as of now I do stand a chance at passing my stats class so I am totally trying to concentrate on that but its kinda hard since in the mean time I have been burning down my kitchen!!! And not even once but twice has something

2001-10-22T18:51:00.000-04:00

Hey guys whats up. First of all I have to apologize for not having updated my log in such a long time. I have just been so busy with everything going and I have misterms like up the ass. I feel like I am at the library every night! Even on Friday night I was studying until 1 am! Ok yeah how cool am I!!! Anyways this is my favourite way to release stress and all that energy I have built up inside

2001-09-07T00:30:00.000-04:00

Why is it that the minute you finally start to doze off in bed the phone rings? God almighty send down a lightning bolt & kill me now.

2001-09-07T00:06:00.000-04:00

Ok I think I better go to sleep now I swear I am starting to hallucinate. The pink elephants are beckoning me to my room!!! sweet dreams :)

2001-09-06T23:51:00.000-04:00

You know what's like super annoying? Well I was just eating some cereal a little while ago - Kamut Krisp (the best cereal in the world especiall cuz its organic) - sorta like cornflakes but healthier- to be exact oh yeah with organic milk too by the way, but what really sucked was that I ate the cereal before it could get at least a little bit soggy and then the whole big dry flake got stuck

2001-08-25T10:37:00.000-04:00

Ok - Just in case any of you were wondering, I learnt the hard way that superglue is indeed very, very flammable. : /

2001-08-25T08:52:00.000-04:00

OK - one thing I can not stand is prank callers. You guys are just idiots who have no life & way too much time on your hands. Like, what is the point of it? What satisfaction do you get in your meaningless, pitiful life if thats all you have to do in your spare time? Honestly, its really annoying so just stop. - Ok I think I should fill everyone in before they thing I have gone berserk! Since

2001-08-24T17:55:00.000-04:00

Well here I am - I promised I would add more about my adventures in the jungles of East Africa! However I should remember to say that these so called "jungles" have been replaced by major fast food chains and shopping malls. So no there are no lions walking around town if you were wondering. Despite my formerly biased opinion of Tanzania, Dar es Salam was a lot of fun! It was weird to run into

2001-08-23T14:38:00.000-04:00

Hello everybody!!!! Ok so there are only like 3 peole that read my log on a regular basis but thats ok!! Well I just got back from my trip to DUbai & Dar es Salaam. It was a lot of fun!! But for those of you who know me you will know that there were some unusual circumstances that I faced cuz well... its me and becuz I'm me things just arent normal. Let me start from the beginning. Hmmm where do

2001-08-01T02:15:00.000-04:00

Alright I know I havent update dmy log for quite some time but I just had to get this in. There are sooooo many retarded drivers on the road I honestly dont think I can take it anymore! Its just ridiculous the number of errors people commit without even realizing they have done something wrong! Take for example the people who change lanes but fail to turn off their indicators therefore deceiveing

2001-07-02T23:43:00.000-04:00

Hey! I know its been a long time but I was out of town in Vancouver. I had a pretty good time and met some interesting people. Especially in Seattle where this one guy I met who worked at a store in the mall took me to customer service to photocopy my hands cuz I had put henna on them! Yeah I know but trust me to meet people like him! Overall it was pretty decent. Yestday after like 3 yrs I went

2001-05-29T18:29:00.000-04:00

Ok guys, I just had my final today and yeah - it kicked the crap outta me! Jeeez I really need to pass this class and if I dont I am screwed!

Success - its a journey not a destination, so stop running. Mediocrity - it takes a lot less time and most people won't notice the difference until it's too late. Procrastination - hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now. Mistakes - it could be that the purpose of your life is only to serve as a warning to others. Losing - if at first you dont succeed, failure may

Ok, I was just talking to my friend Mitul when the topic of cell phones came up. For God's sake people there is nothing more annoying then trying to get in touch with someone but they leave their cell phones off. WHY? WHY!!!!!! You know what if you are gonna leave your cell phone off then dont even bother having one in the first place cuz 1) you are just gonna make all your friends really mad, 2

Hey guys, Have you ever wished you could be in the mafia? I dont know about you but for some reason I really wish that I could be. All those deep, dark secrets, the deception, the mystery . . . I just find it to be captivating. Not to mention if you need someone put in the other realm you wont have a hard time getiing that done he he he. . . Well that's my retarded thought of the day :) I'll be

Hey whats up! This is the official start of my log. A lot of people have been telling me to write things down instead of harassing them with my problems. So here I go. I guess its agood way to relieve stress and just contemplate by existence on this earth. Hmm well that about sums it up for now. So keep checking in and I promise to keep updating this. peace - Nooreen
