Blood still in my cough everytime I wake up these past few days, or a couple days ago.
Pretty much due to the force of my coughing. X_X
Curse thee, allergies.

* Cinder somehow make you chicken broth and tuck you in through textual medium.

Do you sleep with the air-conditioner on? Probably not but you live near me so I assumed that is possible. Don't do that. They're bad for coughs. Unless you're like me and can't sleep without ACs, then you need to see if you sleep in a dry spot.

Also I guess you're already drinking lots of water but HAVE SOME COUGH DROPS TOO ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE COUGHING BLOOD.

Also maaaaaaaybe drink something alcoholic, I heard those help with coughs. :^

Yoink:Tell ussssss.

Just some drunk guy passed out belly-up on the footpath opposite the train station, with his shirt riding up to expose a huge gut to the world. I was watching with some amusement as the occasional passerby stepped around this unsightly obstacle, until eventually a jogger came along and stopped to crouch down and check on the guy.
He appeared to check his life signs and airways whilst presumably talking to him, then with some difficulty managed to wake him up, and then- I was quite impressed here- took hold of the guy and, with a great deal of effort, heaved him to his feet.

The drunk guy responded, as drunk guys often do, with a gratuitous display of thankfulness, complete with much hugging and back slapping. I can only imagine the amount of "thank-you"s he must have slurring out.
Our helpful jogger eventually managed to disentangle himself and continued on his way (after helping the guy pick up some stuff he'd dropped on the ground). A while later he came jogging back again, endured another bout of hugs from the thankful drunk guy, then they parted ways as the drunk guy caught a cab.

...I did say "mildly" interesting... also this was really difficult to type out on this phone. I'm sure you can tell how bored I am. I'm going to try and conserve battery now...

Supposed to make a review of a ~200 page book. 4 pages in, still on the first chapter. Ask around. Thing is supposed to have between 5 and 10 pages. Fuck my life.

EDIT: This is made worse by the fact that I can usually bullshit my way through these assignments to actually high grades with ease, yet I somehow decided to be an idiot with this one.

Ah, I see the incentive with these things is still to become better at making up bullshit, rather than for someone to actually enjoy and understand a good book.

At least literary education is consistently rubbish then. That will be my mild sad for this post then. The institutionalized extinction of any interest in reading.

The incentive would be learning, except the teacher that gave the assignment is a total asshole who thinks his is the only subject one must study for.

I hate working with printers. I don't think I've ever been able to print something on the first try.

This printer seems to be inhabited by the spirit of a moody teenager.

"Are you going to print now?"
*motor whirring*
"Oh, is that what it is?"
*Paper spooling*
"I just want my shipping label, please."
*Pops up 'Printer is not responding' dialogue*

Tonight's dinner was an otherwise very tasty vegetable curry, largely ruined by the inclusion of string beans and cauliflower.
Why do people (especially these people) have to like so many foods I find disgusting?

[Orange Wizard]

Who the hell likes string beans

[KingofstarrySkies]

who the hell likes free food

[Baffler]

Who the hell likes string beans

I do. One of the more common side dishes people in my extended family will make is string or green beans sautéed and mixed in with ground up peanuts or almonds.

[Shook]

String beans? I guess they're okay, and they tend to squeak when chewed. :v

also apparently a large quatro quesos pizza is kind of hard on my bowels if the current discomfort is anything to go by

Welcome to my life.



New Mildsads: does it count as a 'crush' if you've seen a person on just one occasion, have had no interaction with them apart from a smile, and yet keep thinking about them with the vague hope of seeing them again, and perhaps even speaking to them if you're lucky?
I don't think I'd seen anyone particularly interesting during my stay here, much less someone I found attractive*, and now I have less than a week before I leave and this has to happen. I'd been mostly just staying at the house I'm staying in and going out as little as possible, but this will likely force me to make more frequent forays into town, in the hopes of seeing them once more before I leave. Damnit, brain.

*With the exception of the occasional tourist, or person who I assumed to be a tourist at least.

[Orange Wizard]

does it count as a 'crush'

Probably. That happens to me as well. Better than crushing on anime characters, at least.

[Yoink]

Oh well, I'm already forgetting their face. *shrug*

Right now I'm feeling tired and sleepy, which is... I don't know. Mildly sad I guess? I would prefer to just keep listening to music, but I really need to sleep. Sleep would actually be pretty pleasant, but unfortunately I know that tomorrow I will probably be dragged out of here to have breakfast and do stuff... oh man I'm too tired to even do a coherent sleepy-ramble. Buh.

I think I will post this, let this song finish, then go to sleep.
Oh in actual good news: I finally got around to booking my train trip back home. Thursday morning, and I get in a day later.
Hopefully my friend/housemate can pick me up so I don't have to lug all my shit back home via PT, but either way I am excited to return.
