OMFG! Drilling work going on diagonally across me about two houses away. I can’t see it close enough to have a picture of that, but I can hear it. What a monster! Disturbing my peace and quiet at broad afternoon.
I am so pissed that I just had to come online to write this entry, because nobody at home has the patience and mood to hear me whine. My darling blog is static, it listens to me and does whatever I want it to do. What a good boy. So here goes….
If it isn’t already bad enough, Yes, I am attributing my pig cycle (as defined in this diagram of my previous entry) to those noise. I mean my friend says, “If you really wanna study, you can study anywhere.” I guess that means, I am suppose to be able to filter out noise. BUT I AM TRYING TO GET OUT OF MY PIG CYCLE and the noise isn’t helping. Yes, IT IS ALL ABOUT ME. Isn’t it what the exams wanna test? What do I Know? What the heck did I learn this past semester? ME ME ME! Why don’t they just test me what time construction work near me starts? Approximately what time will one large vehicle start reversing in with ultra loud beeping sensors? What colour their machines are? What does that little white board with red words say? “DANGER – KEEP OUT”. What is the time interval between their drilling noise and un-drilling noise? TEST ME! I should be able to ACE it.
Constructions work of noise exceeding certain decibels should STOP during the month of April and November. Because university students who do not live in school residence, have no other refuge but home. They have EXAMS. E-X-A-M-S. That’s how you spell exams. If they can’t even stay at home for peace and quiet, where else can they go? Going out to study is expensive. Costs me ~$30 bucks per study trip out. Where else can they go? Maybe they are just better off drowning themselves in water so they can’t hear anything. I must sound crazy at this point. I AM FRIGGING PISSED OFF!!
I blame the drilling noise for not being able to hear anything. Apparently, my whole family has been shouting for me to go down for lunch, and I didn’t hear anything. My family believes in eating together while the food is fresh and hot. So when they left me food, just because I didn’t come down for lunch. It means something, NOT GOOD! Just that no one said anything about it, thinking this is the period of time they should be more understanding, etc etc etc. So I went and started complaining about stupid IRRITATING drilling noise. And before I could stop myself, I started tearing. MOM hates it when I tear, so she starts getting pissed off, and said something along the lines of how I should be thankful people are drilling at that time of the day and not midnight. Why don’t I just go across and tell those construction people off, instead of just complaining to her ears? And other stuff, I don’t think I have the heart to just repeat them out. Basically she is just being sarcastic on how I like to wake up past noon. Anyhow, I have a very good mind to just walk there and just tell them off. But walking there is sucha feat that requires much effort on my part. So I just sit here and endure the noise. Wow, another step closer to PIG lifestyle. Anyway I have already vented out, I have screamed at the construction site for 5 minutes telling them to SHUT UP and DRILL after my exams! Yes again, it’s all about me.
But you know, perhaps the night is just much more peaceful. LIKE I SAID, I can SLEEP WITH NOISE. Because I tune them out when I sleep. Analagous to my friend’s comment on “If you really wanna study, you can study anywhere”, I say this, “If you really wanna sleep, you can sleep anywhere”. That means, I REALLLY REALLLLY REALLLLY WANNA SLEEP, OKAY?!?!?!??!
Anyway, I hate being the last one at the table. You know what this means? It means, if you can’t finish up the food, either you bear the guilt of throwing food away, or you feel obligated to keep the food away nicely. Usually, I am just too lazy to keep the food, so I just eat it up, that settles everything 
Just an aside, check this out, I WANNA LEARN this pickpocket technique. So cool!
Drilling/construction has a time limit already. I believe they are able to start at 7am till 6/7pm? And not on sundays? I’m not sure exactly. But it has to be done at some point. How does travel cost you 30 bucks? My innitial thought was YOU SPEND 30 AT MCd’S??? hahaha. But yeah, how could getting on a bus (a few dollars…or even free with a student pass) and going to the library, or lounge, or somewhere to sit and study cost you 30 bucks!!!
And honestly, your “pig” routine is not that new. Its almost like a “pig lifestyle” or “pig habit” you just cant be bothered to study so you waste so much time complaining about someone doing their job!! Use that enthusiasm for ranting and complaining and put it towards your studyies…
Be all “YOU STUPID COMPUTER SCIENCE i HATE YOU AND YOUR EQUATION OF 5-T 3X” and then its a good way to remember things like I HATE YOU YOU MOTHERBOARD, THE THING THAT GOES HERE AND DOES THIS” haha, great way!!

I know they had a time limit. But the time limit is kinda long. You know, I mean to be fair, I understand that they cant limit the time too much as the construction wud take forever to complete. But im just suggesting they STOP construction during the exam month u know? Well approximately 30 bucks is not all mcdonalds truth to tell. But mostly yes. My breakfast at Macs was $6.10, I bought fries for kicks at $2.55, lunch i forgot how much, then I sat there so long that i needed to have a drink, that was about $2.55, and then I went out to get like candy (that was my fault), and then I went out and got a pen. Etc. Well it’s all that eating that costs.
GREAT IDEA regarding rants on my course. I guess I dont know about my course enough to rant about it. Want a real rant, check out my friend GILL at the links. She is real rant on technical stuff. Maybe u are right, maybe i just dont wanna study and am blaming it on someone else. I am seriously screwed. my 2nd and 3rd paper is in say two days time, and my 4th paper is in three days time. And i only touched the first bit of the 2nd paper. 3rd paper is an elective that I wud just like try to scrap through. 4th paper, is killer. I AM SCREWED. Imagine me quiting school. NOOOOoo.
P.S. Love ur rant on “I HATE U MOTHERBOARD!”
