Christmas Break!

So Christmas break has begun today and today is the glorious day on which I will hopefully be reunited with my insanely gorgeous girlfriend. School's been pretty easy this week, what with two and a quarter snow days and nothing but a Christmas party today, so I'm feeling great(huh, that makes me think of that crazy nutrigrain commercial. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC2gIPnUCgw enjoy.)
So ya, just been chilling, reading, and saving the galaxy the past few days. It's all good.
Well, got some stuff to do before I head out for the airport.
I AM SO PSYCHED!

Just Some Thoughts

As I begin to jot this down with the magical Dell keyboard I manipulate at my fingertips, my ears are filled with the soothing sounds of Weird Al and his wonderfully touching song Weasel Stomping Day. Strangely, weasels makes me think of ferrets and such stuff like that which makes me think of my neighbors' gennet back in Nigeria. His name was Slinky. Jumping again, that makes me think of a certain lyric from another song I was listening to a while back, "you take they 'y' off a slinky you're left with a slink, but it's still fun to play with we're the Boyz in the Synk!" As you may have guessed, the song is by Boyz in the Synk, a truly phenomenal band spawned from the computer generated masterpiece Veggietales. I was actually just watching a 3-2-1 Penguins this last Saturday that I hadn't watched in a while. Gotta love Kevin! That just makes me think of Home Alone, which is strikingly fitting seems how it's the whole Christmas season and everything. Well, gotta get to Health class. I gotta be healthy!
ONLY 10 MORE DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS BREAK AND MY JOYOUS REUNION WITH MY BETTER HALF!

Italian Proverb

The Italian proverb in question is one recommending that a traveler, in order to ensure his safety on his travels, needs a various assortment of different animal parts. First off, the traveler needs a falcon’s eye, probably so he can see trouble coming from a long way off so as to better avoid it. Second, the traveler is advised to have the ears of a donkey(to use the politically correct term) so as to hear trouble coming. Third, he must have a monkey’s face, probably to make it so no one can stay mad at him because he’s so cute. Fourth, he must have a merchant’s words to excel at diplomacy. Fifth, he must have a camel’s back so he can last a long time when things look bleak. Sixth, he must have a hog’s mouth to be able to eat when it’s available. Seventh, he must have a deer’s feet to be able to run when necessary. All in all, I would say that this is pretty good advice. Now I have to go travel to someplace to try that out. Laters.
