// When It Rains, It Poors

What's that throbbing pain in my head? Oh yes, I believe that's my brain thinking again!

Well ontop of constant headache's that I have been having from just waking up, today I had a real good one, and it has just disappeared! At work we had rules for 7.5 hours, which involved three long tests, and this time they weren't open book. For the first time my rusty ol' brain had to jump into action and actually think for the first time since BCIT... Well, at least my first rules exam when I was first hired on.

I'm not sure if it was just the long exams, powerpoint presentation, or if I was just incredibly hungry, but after the first 4 hours my head was spinning. Honestly, it was throbbing like a mofo. Luckily, I picked up some Jr Cheese Burger Deluxes at Wendys on the drive home, and that seems to have patched things up nicely!

Anyhoo, for the record, I got 96% on the first exam, 95% on the second, and 90% on the third. If you get lower then 90%, you fail. I just lucked out on the last exam! So anyhoo, back to regular work tomorrow! Well, I guess today really!

I've noticed that a few other blogs have made recent posts, such as reba deba's and Kelsey's. Interesting posts to say the least, reba deba goes on about how the unbreakable can break and Kelsey talks about how people in magazines are stupid and make her angry. Other blogs that I would like to see a comeback in are ranDOMinion by the famous Andrew MacG and the short lived Elbow Room by Matt Glynn.

This week marks the return of Davethew and Sam. I was supposed to do breakie with Davethew this morning but he has disappeared off the face of the earth! I really hope he isn't coming home this morning because I'm planning on going to bed in the near future! I hope he does come home soon, just not this morning. Hell, I'll be happy with afternoon!

Sam, on the other hand, has arrived, or so the text message reads. I couldn't really contact him since I was at work doing rules when he text me, but nevertheless, he said he'd be home today. They all left around the same time, and now they're coming back around the same time. Pretty convenient I say!

As reba deba mentioned in the last comment, Davethew and I are starting up a bible study called "Lifesavers" and we really believe its going to be freakin awesome. We're kind of taking the whole bible study thing and stretching it into something more not-so-formal-church-like, if that makes any sense... Yea it doesn't really make sense but you can come check it out.

I was going to ask, whatever happened to go-karting last week? I couldn't show so I never really found out. Andy sent out emails saying that it was going to cost some huge ridiculous price for go-karting, and I was like what?!? I emailed him back telling him that go-kart place needs to get its facts straight, because it says $75 A TEAM! So I hope that's how it worked out. I'm going to try and organize another event anyway, try and get like a guys night out. I know Amrit wanted to try it out, and Sam and Dave are back so I'll figure it out.

On the topic of planning stuff, whatever happened to the Mount Seymour retreat? I was all excited about that! I thought that I'd plan it out and I told Andy and he took it from there and then it was cancelled? I believe it was in March and people didn't want to go because of exams? Maybe this was just me, but I didn't have exams at BCIT until April. Isn't Historymaker only a few weeks a way from High School exams? Anyhoo, just a thought. I'm going to re-kindle the idea and try and build it back up. When I first got people's input they were all supporting it, so anyhoo, I'll see whats up.

Again on the topic of planning things, I was checking out Alberta's YC and it looks pretty dope this year. Mike Pilavachi, Phil Dooley, and Delirous are going to be rockin' up the joint, and since we got a foreign exchange student up in Cgy I thought it might be interesting to FINALLY go check it out. Just tag along with Jam's church and presto! Although that would be quiet the trip, it might be pretty cool!

I do believe that is all for the posting for now since I have put up a fare bit! For now, I think I'll try and find some ice cream and head to bed! Goodnight all!

Go-Karting... yeah, it was $75 a team. The $75 was going to be split between whoever and however many people showed up for it. But then the go-karting place called Andy back the night before and bumped our racing time from 9PM to 10PM. And then called again the next morning to bump from 10PM to 11PM. So then it was cancelled. It's gonna happen in a few more weeks or so when we can get a better time.

And as for the Seymour retreat, yes, it was originally for end of March and it's true that exams don't happen 'till April, but that's still too close. I usually start reviewing for exams in mid March. And if you fail a high school exam, it's pretty harsh. But if you fail a university/college exam, that's cash and lost credits as well.

I don't know if the Seymour retreat is still happening. It'd be nice. We also started talking about Creationfest in July which is sweet. I'm stoked for that!
