gah! this was a pretty
busy week. This
shalt be my, umm what's the
word....
ah!, my
account of the past week. lets see.
in no particular order
- Wett bar.
- 1 year at work anniversary.
- Ass Kicking.
- LaTeX
- Foosball
- Misc, etc
Me and my
buds went to this (i don't know what the right name for this
place
club?
dance-club? ..) place called Wett Bar,
downtown.
We arrived around 9pm. The
neon sign was gone, and weren't sure that we were at the right place.
However some of the posters reassured us we weren't
mistaken.
The
bouncer actually looked at our
IDs. That made me sorta
wonder. We had one dude with uswho just had his
birthday a week ago. The bouncer made a comment, something like "barely made it in".
Whatever. Since it was our first time (at least my
first time) in this sort of
establishment we were sort of
uncomfortable at first. The inside of the place had the following
layout: two
bars on the opposite sides of the room, a raised
plaform across the entrance, and the
dance floor with the place for the
DJs. Anyhow, we
entered and started looking around. There were not too many people
around (since it was sort of early) and then most of them were
girls. We grabbed a table and sat down, had a
few beers etc. I couldn't drink, since i was the
designated driver. Little by little the whole thing started filling up. My friends went
dancing. I'm not really a dancing type, but i joined them
couple of times. The whole "dancing" thing seemed a bit
futile - dancing by myself, or with my guy friends.
What the fuck? So the rest of the time i spent
gawking at girls. Couple of my friends tried to talk to the girls, but failed
miserably. A big
playa "friend" of ours joined us later, and he also failed. Over all the night was pretty boring. There were a lot of
cute girls there; but i guess i'm not the
clubbing type. The highlight of the night were to chinese girls so
greatly drunk that they ran into me.
I liked that. The lowest part of the day was my
parking ticket. Oh well. I owe i think about 200 bucks in tickets. Let's see: about 100 bucks to
SFU. About 50 bucks to
UBC, about 50 bucks to the City of
Victoria and now 50 bucks to
Impark.
Blow me.
1 year @ work
Couple of
days ago I
realized that i've been working at the same place for a year now. It's been pretty good, few ups, few downs. Learned a
great deal. Learned
perl - im fairly fluent in it. Learned more about
linux. Getting into
LaTex. Learning C++. Learned a lot of shit. Learned about
people. Learned about
older people. This year @ work has been pretty good to me...except possibly the fact, that it made me
fail out of
SFU. Oh well.
Lose some gain some.
Ass kicking..
Jesus. This hasn't happened for
years. It takes so much to piss me off, to REALLY
piss me off. And none other then my friends did it. It was a sad and
pitiful show. I set myself up for a
lame joke. They laughed. I laughed with them. They laughed some more. I still laughed with them. Then it grew from a
harmless (but lame)
joke into something that was making me
mad. I asked them to stop numerous times but they didn't. I got
sort of violent.
Bleh. I pushed the table, and the guy behind the table into the wall. All three of them got up and left.
Shrug. I am not saying
sorry.
Whatever. What kinda friends are you, huh? Whatever. They are all pissed off at me now, I think. Their
delicate nature couldn't handle my
violent handling heh. They expected me handle their
verbal abuse. What's the matter? If you can attack me with words, and I can't do the
same, I'll use whatever means. I think I made it perfectly clear. But whatever. Please, please - dont joke like
THAT. I had people laugh at me and my english when i was back in
churchill. And
Israel. Sigh. I'm getting too touchy really...
I'm still mad.
LaTeX
No, no..i'm not talking about the
rubber stuff. i'm talking about the type-setting system. (
though i do find latex oh-so-kinky... :) I need to type up a
cheatsheet for my math stuff. And latex looks pretty cool. I read through some tutorials, printer out some samples. I gotta admit. It looks cool. Write your stuff in plain
ascii, compile into
dvi and there you go. I think i'll use latex from now on for all my word processing purposes.
cool.
Such a simple concent, and yet such a cool game :) We have a
game room at work. A few weeks ago they installed an foosball
table there. Any time during the day you can find people there, and i was sort of wondering what the
heck was wrong with them. Few days ago i tried - and,
damn that game is
addictive. It fast, simple and takes you away from the sometimes dragging
boredom that is
work. Right now i'm majorly getting
raped by everyone else. It's sad. But i figured some shit and hopefully will
get better with practice.
Misc
My left ear is
ringing. Either im going
deaf or i left the cotton part of the
q-tip there.
Again.
Goddamn. Heh, going to the
gym rocks. I'm not
depressed, and i feel
healthier. I think i need to
get drunk. Also i need to
wrap up this node and go
take a shower. Heh.
