Today's reason to frown: None today. Maybe tomorrow.

When it rains, it pours.

The only other serious job lead I had dried up today.

Eddie, I have no sympathy for you.
Try walking to school in -30C weather, snow and a -40C wind coming off the North Atlantic. Thats reason to frown, but you probably wont be able to because your face is numb. I would have given my left testicle for 37C weather then...

Take your pants off, and you will.


Well, it'll feel like 40*C. Some would argue that hypothermia isn't quite the same thing as actually being warm, but I say **** them.


Reason to frown? Transfer applications. They suck and I hate them. I have to get out of this hellhole into somewhere properly unpleasant, or at least otherwise interesting enough to hold my attention, but it just so turns out that one of the wonderful features of lecture-based college courses is that you no longer have access to professors who can assign a face to a name, much less write a passable letter of recommendation.

By the time I got all my pants off it would have been 40C.
3 layers of clothes and I still couldnt feel most of my body.
The walking in that weather wasnt the kicker though. In the time it took me to get to school, they went and cancelled it, SO I HAD TO WALK BACK! When I left in the morning they were saying school was still open.

But you got the day off school, surely that's a large counter?

Ah, whine whine. At least something can be done about it being cold.

Sure... if you have power, but in that kind of weather power tends to get knocked out pretty fast.
Its easier to cool off than to warm up.

I found out that I have to wear a formal suit for almost all of the meals at that science talent institute thing, so that's something to frown about. :( I'll probably just put it on right over my normal clothes. :D

Actually, I was referring to insulation. There's nothing you can do about extreme heat that doesn't involve power or a vat of liquid oxygen.

Gah, reason to frown is that I have band practice at 8pm today, which means I'm going to get home really late... but tomorrow morning I have family stuff to go too as well. So much for sleeping in. :o

3dsmax has been rendering a scene all night, I wake up this morning, it's still not done. In the meanwhile, I wanna watch the recently released Naruto movie trailer ( which in fact ended up being a crappy 5 seconds catch line ), which was a real player file. I stupidely decided to install real playuer ( for many reasons I hate it ). So I install it, launche the trailer and... PC crashes. Weeeeeeeeee. A whole night of calcul lost. For a 5 seconds video :doubt:

My reason to frown. Last week sometime I managed to get a really bad case of poison ivy all over my upper thighs and I wake up at night scratching it like hell.

Last night I was awake until 3:30am.. (I get up at 5:45)


and...last night I decided to take my shower around midnight, so when I go downstairs I find the bathroom taken...I missed the first part of Conan O'Brien because I couldnt take my shower until like a half hour later...

:mad: Oh man, I totally empathise. I also have this unnatural hatred for Real Player... man, that sucks. Well, at least it's not like an oil painting that's screwed over, all we have to do is hit "render" again tomorrow night.

My reason's not so bad in comparison. I have this double-18th-birthday party next week that I've been waiting for ages for, but now it turns out the date they picked, I can't go, because I'm doing stuff with relatives. Blegh.
