Well...not so much. After a much long hiatus, I have decided to start posting again. The rumours of my passing have been much exaggerated as in, non-existent. My postings may follow an irregular pattern but I am now hoping to keep up so to speak. Much time has passed and I have been quite busy in my school program. It really seems never ending. This is my sixth straight year of post secondary education and I have to say, I am quite ready to be over it. It is a new year and my resolution is for surviving my program.
I was hoping to ring in the New Year by winning the lottery. I tend to hope for the best and expect to win and you know, each time, it seems to be an elderly person who wins. Now, I have nothing against the elderly. Well, nothing that I am willing to own up to at the moment but it seems to me that the lotto should be won by those who can enjoy it for the longest? I may be a little cynical but until I win that lottery, I guess I will be trucking along in school. There will be highs, and many, many lows. I hope everyone is ready for the year, I know I'm not...until next time.
A view of life from the eyes of a procrastinator

Theatre Antics
So, I decided to go see a movie today- the family friendly Despicable Me. I know, it doesn't exactly speak to my street cred, but animation films are for a universal audience nowadays. And I'm sticking to that stance. Anyway, so I was enjoying the movie when halfway into it, a small child started crying and shouting for his mommy. Now, I'm not a parent. I don't understand the fuzziness and the warmth that children bring to our lives, or so I keep being told, but I do know that I like silence during my movie. Of course, it's unavoidable that younger children may act up. I get that, I really do. However, when the child is yelling for 30minutes continuously, and you, as the parent, decide the best way to care for your child is to ignore them and hope the sounds end, that pisses me off.
If your child cannot sit through a movie, don't take them to one. Or, take your kid outside and deal with them so that the entire theatre does not have to sit through your parental skills, or lack thereof. Did I say how I can't stand small children? With no younger siblings, I have not been built with a tolerance or patience to the cries of children. Or, my biology was not meant to be around them. So parents, if you can please check your children, before the audience messes you up, that would be appreciated. The movie was enjoyable, not a classic though.

The First
I feel like I should do something special as this is my first ever post but that would go against everything I stand for. This blog will really be about my daily encounters or things that catch my interest, i.e. things that really annoy the sh@#! out of me. Come on, let's be honest, nobody wants to read a blog about constant happiness. We (that includes you) want to hear about who screwed the other person over and what creative ways they get back at each other.
A little about myself - I'm a college student, still living at home and working a part time job to get by. I am Asian but really Canadian at heart. I think my Asian-ness, yes that is word, helps make me, me. It brings to the table, my super traditional parents with my view on life. Something you should know is that I'm incredibly sarcastic. The kind of dry sarcasm where you sometimes, don't really know if I am being sarcastic, if that makes any sense. It's easier to see it in person, but if you read my posts, you'll eventually catch on.
My goal in life is to get by, by just meeting enough of the expectations set fourth by everyone around me so they'll stop bothering me. At this point, perhaps I should mention, I am gay and currently single by choice. And by choice, I mean the fish really aren't biting.
As for being a procrastinator, I am, in life. Of course, I will make the odd attempt to get a good mark, impress at my desk job, or be the filial son, but at the end of the day, reality can just wait because I'm in no hurry to go anywhere. Hope you enjoy the ride, it will be a bumpy one.
