hamilton - a midterm review
old man: can i ask you something?
friend: uh... sure? *is prepared to say she has no change*
old man: wanna hook up?
friend: NO! runs away
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on the bus. looks up in light of commotion at the front of the bus
passenger: are you gonna slap me!??
bus driver: No, i'm not going to slap you, but get off my bus.
passenger: are you going to slap me?!?!?!?!
bus driver: GET OFF MY BUS!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on the bus
passenger/old man: giggles maniacally the whole time i'm on the bus while rocking back and forth
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
waiting for the GO Bus
standing next to a perfectly normally looking man
man: perks up and says in a high pitched voice
HAMILTON DOESNT NEED MORE POLITICIANS, WE NEED MORE CRIMINALS!
man goes back to "normal"
guy in front of me texts: yo the people here are messed up
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
on the bus
there's a lady bug on a boy's jacket. He screams.
mother: it's just a lady bug. Shut up. you're so stupid - it's not going to hurt you
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Famous for its blue collar society and low income families, it's no wonder people think that Hamilton is so ghetto. It seems like everywhere you go, you'll find obesity to the point where people move with electric wheelchairs/mobile chairs. Every other person you meet on the street is smoking something and half the mothers, you can't really tell if it was their first choice or not to be mothers. I did a little research and Hamilton is consistently lower in literacy, reading skills of students, higher in hospitalization of children due to accidents, and higher in teen pregnancy.
Closer to mac, however, you see none of these problems. People look a lot more educated, you rarely see smokers, no young mothers - basically it truly is a student town over in that area.
It's pretty amazing yet disturbing to see how there can be such a distinct line (in this case, highway 403) between the wealthy and the poor. I know we all say that we're students and we're poor, but I realize so much more, now, that even being able to go to school and have enough money to pay for rent, tuition, the works - it's a blessing.
I really want to see if there's this distinct of a divide in Toronto.

just laugh
because laughter is a great stress reliever.
because laughter can comfort you in times of sadness.
because laughter can give you a fresh start
because laughter can boost your immune system
because laughter can relieve pain
because laughter increases blood flow
because laughter helps you lose weight
because it's going to be okay.
pieces of me
my mind has a limited number of pieces.
most of my pieces are taken up.
i'm sorry i can only give you a small piece.
to be fair, i gave you a HUGE piece in the past.
i can't continue to give you that much.
do you feel deprived now?
is that what you thought i meant when i wanted to stay friends?
that's not what i meant.
gah. stress.
yet i love being this busy.
definitely not going to live long.

how to get a boy - asian dramas in 5 steps
1. start off ugly; clean up good
2. be the only person to rebel against him - he'll fall in love with your spunk (having his best friend go after you is an added help)
3. you have to be cute, no matter what
(i don't think this comment needs an illustration - use your imagination)
4. be persistent in your love and that person will fall in love with you
5. cry. boys have a soft spot for girls who are helpless
Lame.
Asian drama writers really need to write new plots.
I'd like something more realistic please (although the 5th one is true, i think)
