Thank heavens I live in an earthquake free zone. Our ground is to swampy I've heard and no faults arounds. I'd lose my shit if I went through one. Now hurricanes are dif story. I'm well adjusted to having to pack up and get the FUCK OUT OF DODGE.

Actually, you want to be careful there. If you DO get hit by a large earthquake, you may just get to enjoy the privilege of "liquefaction" - i.e. the swampy ground you're in liquefies and turns to grey sludge, rendering the area practically impossible to build upon ever again. 'Tis the problem Christchurch has had the hardest time dealing with after their quakes the other year.

The lady friend has no free time in between working and acting workshop. She's having second thoughts about us. Curse you, modern lifestyle.

Also, I just walked through a little lane in my backyard, past my brother's room with the window open, wearing only good ol' boxers. Pretty sure his maths tutor caught a good look of (nearly) everything. Curse you, modern lifestyle!

Isn't that an odd quirk of human relationships? I don't get to spend enough time with you, so I have decided the solution is to spend zero time with you.

I used to get lingering chest infections once or twice a year. My coughs were bad enough and regular enough for more than one stranger in the street to suggest I quit smoking despite me never having smoked in my life. About 5 days ago I said to the other half "hey, have you noticed I haven't had one of my coughs for a couple of years?" Friday I woke with a sore throat, Saturday burning lungs and today I'm coughing like I have been smoking 60 a day since I was 12! Arse.

My mom's a tailor and is currently making/remaking dresses for a bunch of young ladies for a wedding. Just now, I really had to stopm down on my own temper while listening to said young ladies begging my mom to go down with the prices. Listen, ladies, she already gives you bunch a discount because you are so many. Also, you came to her because you know you'll get good quality work for a reasonable price. She's been working weekends just to meet your deadline and all you've got to say 'Can you go down a bit with the price, please?'

Though I probably intimidated them enough without saying anything, they sure looked appropriately impressed upon leaving.

To preface it all, I'll say that I'm not some amazing fighter, and I haven't extensively trained past some basic boxing and whatnot but I went out last night and got ridiculously drunk. Lost my friends and found myself wandering downtown Honolulu trying to get myself to the Denny's they were at. A black dude and white guy started talking shit to me and I ended up knocking the black guy out and smacking the white guy around a little but the thing that is messing with my groove is on top of my hangover, my hand hurts, and my elbow is cut where I smashed one of the guys in the mouth.

At the end of it all, I just feel slightly immature though. Ah man....

[worry]

Well you know what they say: All's drunk that ends drunk.

"ALLEGED"? Wow, great job being rape apologists. Barf.

And my comment above referred to the fact that they're getting away with little jail-time both comparatively speaking and in terms of their crime. I mean, dont get me wrong, I'm glad they're getting some time in there, but still. :\

Yup.

Also what the hell is with the 'this is why social media is bad, kids' thing? How about no, raping people is bad, social media has nothing to with it?

My legs are killing me. But apparently I did almost 23 kilometers on foot yesterday night. The drinking under the open sky season is open, damn the freezing weather

Avalanches. Father of a childhood friend of mine died in one yesterday. We are all aware of the danger, but it's still shit when it happens.
