I don’t know if this is just me or everyone, but every time I leave the grocery store with a bunch of bags , i’ll put like 6 or 7 bags in one hand and then just one in the other. I’m not sure why this is. Why not 4 and 4? I don’t know. It’s like I want to torture one arm at the expense of another. Does anyone else find themselves doing this?
So today, August 24th, is my birthday, and I am turning 24. Someone told me this therefore means it is my "champagne birthday." But then I asked the rather brilliant question, what if I turned 3 on August 3?
Secondly in order to maximize your birthday time, make sure you are up past midnight on the day before. This means you get some very early bday wishes.
Third, I find it more exciting to save your cards and open them up on your birthday.
Fourth…what the hell am I doing typing a blog on my birthday…later folks.
So I by accident composed several poems when I was in college and used them as away messages. This one is about a coffee machine that a suitemate left in the hall and would brew coffee in the hall by my door. This is from the year 2000 (in the year 2000…)
Coffee Machine, Coffee Machine out there in the hall
Carafe full of coffee, I want to drink you all
Drink as I may, and drink as I might
Most likely I’d stay up, up all night.
Lingering in my mind is filling up cup after cup
But see, the problem is I’d be up…up and having to pee.
Oh wonderful coffee in the machine in the hall
Staring at you knowing I cannot drink you all
Thus I hope you take a big fall
And break so you stop torturing me
You coffee machine in the hall.
Sorry I was gone for so long. Was busy with work and studying for an exam I had to take. Then I had technical difficulties getting to this page for some reason. Anyway, I’m back.
So on a random note, I thought of a line I have always wanted to use, but have yet to have occasion to use. "You know what…you’re an au bon pain in the ass." Guess nobody in Au Bon Pain has pissed me off enough yet…ah well maybe I’ll have to bring my brother there. Just kidding.
I will also add that I agree with some comments. I think people that learn English as their second language have better grammar than Americans. This is because you learn it out of a textbook. I think this is true of any language learned in such a manner. The rest of us, we grow up with a language with out locval dialect/slang/accent and such. While the grammar is not in tip top shape it is a large part of who we are.
Finally if you have an issue with what I wrote due to the fact that you take things too literally or lack a sense of humor please message me first before publicly lambasting me in the comments. It would be much appreciated. This way I could explain that disproportionate means out of proportion to the rest and that I did not seriously mean I would fly down to the Philippines or Malaysia and other common sense things… 
So recently all the major car companies here had the employee discount for everyone sales promotion. Seems like a good deal. Then I thought about how it must feel to be an employee. You have this discount, and you need a car. You are waiting to the summer because that is when you need the car. And then guess what everybody gets the freakin discount. You just don’t feel so special anymore. This discount, well it seems crappy to you.
Now imagine you were planning on quitting in March, but you knew you were going to need a new car in the summer. So you postpone leaving for several months. Now you find out you could have gotten the damn discount anyway!
