=W=

So it all goes to plan I’ll be able to see Weezer twice in a week, once at Coachella and once at the Kool Haus thus making this the greatest birthday ever. Plus they still have to tour once the album comes out; can you see three-peat? I’m hoping I can. It's pretty much a guarantee that I'll have absolutely no energy for the Saturday, meaning it'll be the worst birthday party ever.

So, I got all of my midterm marks in. 86, 85, 73, 70, 69, 38. That 38 is pretty ugly, isn't it? But aside from that I'm pretty happy with the marks. All of them were above the average and thanks to good tutorial/assignments/lab marks; I should be in 80s for everything before the finals.


Blast off! Up to the stars we go
And leave behind everything I used to know
Somebody's giving me a whole lot money to do
What I think I want to
So why am I still feeling blue?
Oh what a time though...

Blast Off - Weezer

Go Huskies. Knock off those dirty Cardinals and deliver me into the $362 at the end of the rainbow.

Go Blue Devils.

That was today’s post. I had wanted to post this yesterday but got sidetracked last night.

What is more important in this world? A brain-dead woman in Florida who is a vegetable or another school shooting that was the worst school shooting since Columbine? Personally, I don’t give a crap about this woman; she’s a political football in an increasingly aging state with 27 electoral votes. The fact that Bush flew across the country to sign a meaningless law was nothing but pandering to certain aspects of the country. And the fact that no one on either side of Congress realises how ridiculous this is, is even worse. On the other hand, we had 9 innocent lives lost and another 7 wounded. But this is the number two story everywhere. Probably not even that in some places. I’m sure the news that Barry Bonds might not play this year was more important. So a white woman with no cerebral cortex and has been a vegetative state for 14 years is more important the deaths of 9 Native Americans in another, possibly preventable, school shooting. Politicians and the media alike both need a slap in the face. At some point, society has to change, priorities need to be re-evaluated and it doesn’t look like things are going to get better any time soon.

Take Your Time, Fuckwad.

Don’t even fucking get me started on Michael Jackson and the Sudan.
