So you’ve read 20 pages for Physics and then you have to read Medea by Monday and you have Science Frosh tomorrow and you get bored and distracted. What do you do?
It’s more like what you don’t do.
What you don’t do is decide that the week after you’re going to have to read Macbeth and you’re going to need some help with that. Then you don’t look up to see what book stores in the area have No Fear Shakespeare for it and you definitely don’t go to the Chapters at Broadway and Granville. But while you’re there, you might as well look for things you entirely don’t need, but they sell, like scented candles and “rock out with your lock out” key covers. Then don’t spend about 20 minutes looking at those and another 45 minutes looking for the Shakespeare section to find that it’s actually under the header “Large Print” near the poetry section. At least that’s a little productive, now you have something that will be useful in the future.
And then most of all, do not decide to go out to dinner “because you’re in the neighbourhood.” Because then, you get out of the neighbourhood by taking the 17 at Granville, which despite saying “17 DOWNTOWN” on the front in huge yellow letters, you still think is going towards UBC. And then you’re on the Granville Bridge. … …
So I took a nice tour downtown and eventually ended up at my destination, which I have not previously mentioned but should have, has the most AMAZING sushi ever. It’s called “The One” on Broadway, Google “The One Japanese Restaurant” and you’ll find an address. My favourite is the kiwi roll (I get it with kiwi, unagi, cucumber, and crab meat).
Anyways, the rule of the day is: If you’re totally bored with reading, dancing is a much better option than going somewhere. (But it was totally fun and worth it XD)
