In other words, I’m sick.
But I don’t think my sinuses are clogged. Rather, I’ve just been hacking my lungs out coughing a lot. All the stress of midterms and late nights and bad eating and dealing with people somehow got snowballed itself into a destroyer of immune systems and now I’m feeling bleh.
On the bright side, I’m done two midterms, and the long weekend is coming up! If I’m correct, this is the first ever Family Day! Yaaaaaaaaaaay.
Hullo, everybody!
I hope that you’re all happy and content after the long weekend, and that you’ve counted your thanks. I know I am and have 😀 I also happen to be sporting a healthy food baby. Mmm, stuffing; the best part of the meal. At times like these, I’m glad to be living at home.
I was hoping to post a picture of the turkey yesterday, but I got caught up with procrastinating studying chemistry. Chemistry, why must you be so confusing?
So here instead is a summary of my long weekend. Also, Kim’s.
Someone please, teach me how to study efficiently 🙁
If you log onto the Student Service Centre online (ssc.adm.ubc.ca), you will be able to find the exact times of the final exams for this term’s classes. Final exam season starts on December 5th, I believe, and goes ’til December 19th. Guess when my last exam is?
My exam schedule… It kinda really sucks. Within 7 days, I have 5 midterms. And one of them is on a Saturday. 🙁
I didn’t even know they had exams on the weekend!
I’m going to have to plan my studying very, very carefully, so that I don’t end up cramming frantically the night before each exam. But if I do, I’ll blog about it so you guys can bask in my misery. I’ll probably have a bad time, but at least I’ll have the holidays to look forward to!
Thank goodness it’s the weekend now. I could definitely use the break, especially with my chemistry lab fiasco. Have a good one, everybody!

Stroke, stroke, stroke, stroke! Golly, that word sounds weird after a while.
For those you you who haven’t heard about it, Day of the Longboat is a UBC REC event held at Jericho Beach. Basically, you form a team with whomever you like (I went with a faculty team) and you race against other teams in an oversized canoe. It’s more fun than I describe it to be, I promise!
Here’s how my day went:
The KKK: After the race!
Still, I’d say Day of the Longboat is one event that all UBC students have to do at least once. If you’re looking for spirit, you’d find it here! It’s definitely a team bonding activity, so I’d recommend that you gather a group of friends, or people from your floor, or your faculty. And for goodness’ sake, not that kid you really can’t stand.
Can’t wait for next year!

No I’m just kidding. I didn’t actually do that out loud.
Tonight was definitely the highlight of my week/weekend! After all, where else am I allowed to belt out my favourite songs? The best part of it was that Tegan and Sara played never-before-heard songs from their upcoming album! I liked them very much.
Now wish me luck in catching up with all the homework I pushed aside. Procrastinating and cramming is not and should not be condoned here.
