AC

Okay. A little tragic story before I leave for work. I know everyone loves tragedy.

So about 2 weeks ago, my cousin Allen has moved around 7-8 boxes of stuffs into my apartment because he has no other place to hold them. And there's an air conditioner (hereafter referred as AC) in there.

So last weekend, as the weather gets warmer, I was trying to install the AC by myself. And you all know at the back of AC, there are like these metal fences knitted tightly all over.

And I found out that they're really really SHARP, the hard way.

As I was moving it around, all of a sudden, I realized there are blood all over the place. Turns out I have sunk my fingers into those damn blades, and made like 10 (really, 10), deep-paper-cut-like-would at the same time.

The first thought that comes to my mind was, "goddamn it, this is gonna hurt for awhile". And I was right.

My right hand has been disabled for several days and it's still a pretty disgusting sight to look at the wounds.

So.. ya, the moral of this story is, do not press your fingers or any part of your body against sharp objects. Especially MANY sharp objects, or at least not at the same time.

Hope this story has enlightened all of you.




And.. yes, of course, I failed at installing the AC.

Kitchen

I just realized that this is the first time I have my own kitchen.

Recalling the times I've lived outside of my parent's, it has always been sharing kitchen with others, or no kitchen at all.

UBC - Sharing kitchen with 3 others.
Vietnam - No kitchen.
Taiwan - Has kitchen but not useable.
Waterloo - Sharing kitchen with the whole floor.

So.. anyways, I started to prepare my own food again, which means a couple trips to super market on a weekly basis.

The first couple weeks I started with simple things like banana, apple, grapefruit, tomato, orange, pears. And then move on to instant noodle, eggs, canned soup, frozen dumpling and frozen wontons. Hopefully I'll start using the oven soon.

Here's the list of things I just bought on the way back home:

1 box of eggs.
1 bottle of apple juice
1 bag of oranges
1 bag of sasages
3 bags of instant noodles
6 bananas
3 bottle of yoguart
12 bags of dumplings

And it was HEAVY.

And I probably bought too much dumplings :(

This is such a boring entry...

To be honest, I'm much more depressed than I expected. Much much more.

Today ends. My 3rd guild in wow. Yes, wow, the game that occupied a huge chunk of my last 3 year's life.

I've sacrificed so much sleep time for this game. And this time I think it's really about to end.

I know very well that I should quit now. Very very well. But it's just so hard to let go. Much much harder than I'd expected. Well, I guess I never really expected to stop anyways.

I've cancelled my subscription today. And hopefully, 3 years from now, I'll be able to look at this post and tell myself I've made the right decision.

Of course, I always have the following option:
