Whooshness...

Well, finals are over! Wooo! And that last test was so the opposite of a doozy, even if I did start having a major headache right in the middle of it. It's funny how the most complicated-sounding course, Decision Making through Quantitative Analysis and Linear Programming, seemed like the easiest. Basically, it was just excel modelling and simple probability. Heh.

Plus, on the busride to granville, there were these guys singing "I Used To Work In Chicago", and oh man that was hilarious to hear. Some verses:

Everyone sings words in capital letters.

I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO AT AN OLD DEPARTMENT STORE,
I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE
A lady came in for a doughnut
A DOUGHNUT FROM THE STORE?
A doughnut she wanted, cream filled she got!
I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE!

I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO AT AN OLD DEPARTMENT STORE,
I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE
A lady came in for a ruler
A RULER FROM THE STORE?
A ruler she wanted, 12 inches she got!
I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE!

I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO AT AN OLD DEPARTMENT STORE,
I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE
A lady came in for a flag
A FLAG FROM THE STORE?
A flag she wanted, my pole she got!
I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE!

I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO AT AN OLD DEPARTMENT STORE,
I USED TO WORK IN CHICAGO I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE
A lady came in for an engineer
AN ENGINEER FROM THE STORE?
An engineer she wanted, a real man she got!
I DON'T WORK THERE ANYMORE!

Heheheh, I found that last one especially amusing...but yes, it was all fine and dandy until they ran out of verses to double entendre, and ended up with just stupidity...i.e. A bathtub she wanted, golden shower she got! And that wasn't the worst of 'em...but, hilarious nonetheless.

Although I don't know if that kind of song is appropriate in my blog...oh well, too late to care about things like that.

Oh, and also tonight I went to Bacchus with my uncle, which is this fancy shmancy restaurant/lounge thing inside the wedgewood hotel downtown. Quite nice, and also incredibly inexpensive for that kind of place. Food was good too. Reward for doing well on my exam, or something like that. Heheh.

Anyways, yeah, so that was my day. Well, my day after exams. This morning I had my church christmas program thing, which went quite well. Charissa even had a big solo thing playing Mary once again. Plus, playing drums etc is quite fun. Although I think they have to return the drums to whoever we were borrowing them off of soon. That's slightly annoying, although apparently they're thinking of buying our own elec. drums, which would be nice.

After that, directly to UBC for some last minute cramming in Woodward library. And man, it so paid off. That test was not the horror that I expected it to be. Quite the opposite, as I believe I've mentioned above. Well now, full circle I have gotten.

But, it's late, and I shouldn't be staying up for much longer...

Yeah, all of that above stuff was to get my mind off the fact that my little sister was hospitalized because of some abdominal pain or something. Apparently she's gonna be alright, but that still sucks majorly completely. It's quite late. She should be home soon.

Well, apparently she needs to stay overnight, observation or something. Oh well, whatever's necessary I guess. I want her to get better.

Until next time, I guess...
