I pretty much flipped when I saw this! It was outside my house kind of on this corner. A woman and her child, both crawled out safely and the police and ambulance and fire rescue arrived super quickly! I couldn't believe how lucky they were to get out with nothing more than a bloody lip and swollen wrist. Poor single mom was worried about her job and everything. She was new to Canada me thinks. =[
I can't believe how many racist people there are in the world. I work at a location where I interact with members of the community on a daily basis. A lot of them I have become fairly good friends with. However, I was shocked today to learn that a good portion of them were racist, and they went beyond just saying racial slurs like 'paki', which they ignorantly called a group of Sri Lanken's. They made comments about smell, their food, the way they acted. One old woman even said she got bad/negative vibes from them and wanted to know if others did too. One woman said she was moving out of the big city because of them. I couldn't believe how people were reacting, I thought racism was dead and people were mostly accepting of everyone, but I guess not. It's a shame too because these stupid people are spreading their message of hate not only to eachother but also their children.
I don't know what Civic Holiday is but I'm not excited for it. I have to work and I don't get paid extra.
I love my new cell phone and I have been using it non-stop since I bought it.
I just farted.
The news it boring me and almost putting me to sleep.
Funny People is not a funny movie.
This stream is becoming like my twitter. Oh by the way you should follow my tweets by clicking THE BIRD
NIGHT PEOPLE, the sleepless night will now be slept. I'm great in bed... at sleeping.
Well I guess you could say it is true. I am quite and awkward person in most situations but aren't we all? We just express our uncomfortable feelings differently. I am a person who wears his emotions on his sleeve and if I'm uncomfortable you will damn well know. Here are some ways to judge how I feel. Make sure you remember these or write them down, and don't just do that, study them thoroughly so when we meet, you can make the uncomfortable, comfortable. The conversation will flow easily and it will have some sense of normalcy.
Scratching my neck - A quick gesture after an exchange of money for goods or services, expressing my nervousness about money and the possibility of having to use my terrible math skills. I also fear someone could steal the money from me, quick change me, or the goods and services may be inadequet. I'm a cheap person also, thought I would just add that in there.
Scratching my stomach/chest area - When having a conversation with a stranger or acquaintance, and I'm not sure how the conversation is being received, I will stratch my stomach or chest in an effort to pretend I'm casual and comfortable in front of the stranger, enough that I would pleasure myself in a good scratch. However, I'm not comfortable, in fact i'm the exact opposite, and I'm so uncomfortable that I am using some bad acting skills to distract the other member of the conversation from my sweating and shaky voice.
Hands in the pocket - This is rare, but when I do catch myself scratching, or about to scratch one of my danger zones (neck, chest and stomach) I put my hands in my pockets and sway.
Overuse of two phrases - 'Oh ya!?' and 'Really?' when I really don't need to use them, and sometimes they don't even fit in a conversation. The truth of the matter is, I just really don't know what to say to what the other member of the conversation just said.
Awkward Laugh - exactly what it sounds like. You kind of have to hear it and you will just know when you do.
The innappropriate story/word - I'm trying to be casual and funny here. I probably don't think it is really time for a dirty word or story but to make you think we are tight, good and comfortable I'll slip in the dirty word and story to flex my 'comfortability muscle' in front of you. I have courage and I don't give a damn what others think. "BAGINA!" ha.. there, I showed him/her.
Misuse of common phrases - 'Ya well I just did it for shits' ... 'wait what? You mean shits and giggles' ... 'Well ya, but I kind of shortened the phrase' ... 'Ya June, that's not gunna work out'
For now, that's all the advice I can give you. Live long and prosper bitches.
[Since this is the first Wordless Wednesday I'm putting some words in brackets. The way this works is I simply post a random picture that I found on my computer, a photo that I have taken, and I reveal no details or description or any kind of explanation, and you the blog readers get to comment on it, caption it, etc. From now on, Wednesdays will no longer have words unless it is a blog emergency. This note will self destruct in 30 days.]
