August Update

So now that I’m done my co-op placement, I’ve been rather bored. It hasn’t hit me yet, but waking up early is still part of circadian rhythm. We’ll see what happens.

I’m excited for school next week. How weird. Lol.

Goodbye August!

i’m so fly like a bird, bird

My one and only final of the semester is on the last day of exams. Go figure, right?

Anyway, I can’t seem to cram anymore knowledge into my head. I doubt that even if I try, it won’t stick. Instead I’m just looking at the pictures. Pictures would be easier to remember and they tell a thousand words. So… this is what I have succumbed to. Hahaha.

“I’m so fly like a bird, bird…” favourite line of TaeYang’s Solar album! Hahaha.

silence

I’ve been thinking recently on the power of silence.

I’m a quiet guy to begin with. I really only talk lots when I really know you well, otherwise, I’m just the guy that likes to listen. Maybe I’m just not the daredevil and ready to jump into the conversation. I like to watch from afar and observe and then when I figure how the others communicate, I adapt to them and join in.

Random thought: My grade 1 teacher thought I was an ESL student because I didn’t talk. I was born and raised here in Vancouver and I’m definitely not ESL. My teacher found out that I wasn’t when my mom came in for a student-teacher interview and my teacher was shocked that my mom spoke perfect English. I think I was asked why I didn’t talk in class and I answered something like, I didn’t have to talk.

I guess I’ve always been the listener/observer, but I guess that’s my superpower.

At work, I just have to give people the “look of disapproval” and people get what I mean. I don’t need words to tell them to stop doing what they’re doing. I guess I learned from my mom on how this look works since she used it on my sisters and I a lot.

I have no idea where I am going with this. I’m just a random quiet guy. Total introvert right here!

new glasses

I got new glasses!

My sister got this deal for a free pair of glasses if I ordered online, and I was all over it. It essentially cost me just under $16 for shipping. I feel a bit honger…

Pretty good for $16! :D

fraud

I had to cancel my credit card the other day.

I noticed 3 transactions from the same day that were at 2 different locations of a gas station that I don’t gas with. I’m so happy that I’m a little paranoid and like to check my statements to make sure the purchases on there are purchases I actually made!

I called up my credit card company and told them that I didn’t gas with them. Then the CSR basically went over a week’s worth of transactions in which I told him I either made those purchases or not. Seems like this person likes to spend money at gas stations and parking stubs.

Anyway, the world is a very fishy place… Still rather confused on where my number got stolen though… Must retrace my transactions. :S
