End.

This is it; my last blog of the school year, and i’m going to try and make it unique. In fact, i’m going to bring in some of my personal experiences…and share it. Hope you don’t laugh at me, and instead…laugh with me. (even if its not funny…it’ll make me feel good)
I was playing basketball the other day and I was making all of my shots. That same day when I was sleeping, I had a dream that a bird shat on me. Then I realized…bird crap may be a lucky charm. (not the cereal…trust me…)
I was wearing cologne the other day…which made me think. Do I really want to smell like Calvin Klein? Or do I want to smell like Gautam? I mean, he doesn’t want to smell like me…why do I want to smell like him? Then again…who doesn’t want to smell like me?-I smell amazing.
I had to go shopping the other day and I saw a product - it was on sale. Beside the “Sale” was a smilie face. Then I wondered…would smilie faces have the same effect if they had a nose? Think about it…and draw a smilie face without a nose…it won’t look that happy anymore. This made me think even further…what if people didn’t have noses? would they be happier?
This is going no where…i know.

This is a shoutout to some of my friends who are leaving this year…be it going to university, or back to Mexico, or wherever.

English

Back in the day- 11 odd years ago when I was still a kid, it all started; I was an immigrant from India, and I hadn’t been in Canada long enough. I don’t know what it was about it, but my accent in 2nd grade caused curiosity amongst my peers. One young chap had the courage to ask me if I spoke English, and much to my delight I did. I responded by saying “yes I do.” Thinking back, I could’ve said many other things honestly, rather than simply “yes I do.” Since this lad was not from Canada either, I could have said “hey! you’re an immigrant too, and i’m not complaining!” Luckily I didn’t say that. I would have probably have had to repeat second grade…not that I avoided it.
Yes, I repeated second grade; they said I was too young to go into third grade, but something tells me that they’re lying. Seeing I was too smart for second grade, they should’ve bumped me up. I mean, I got 98% on my IQ test and all. Maybe i'm just too cool for third grade...- but I’ll save that story for a later date.
My point is…if you’re an immigrant, don’t make fun of other immigrants. It’s not nice. I remember another story; this one was in grade 3 - the very next year in a different school though. Some kid (of asian descent), came up to me, and in a goofy accent asked “do you speak like this?”. I obviously said “no I dont.” And I didn’t! I swear. But yeah, thinking back to that situation, i’m pretty sure someone had asked him the same question before…Ironically me and this guy became pretty good friends and played basketball together.
To conclude, i’d like to say that immigrants are amazing basketball players.

Medical Word of the Moment: medterms.comZygoma: The part of the temporal bone of the skull that forms the prominence of the cheek.

Billy: Hey! You’re zygoma is swollen.
Bobby: Nope, I just have candy stuffed in my cheek.
*Billy punches Bobby’s face*
Billy: What about now? Is it swollen now Bobby?
Bobby runs home crying.
Billy: I feel like having some candy, but then again, it’ll get stuck in one side of my zygoma.

Greener.

We were learning about the Domain theory in physics today. I was hungry though, and I had lunch next. I started thinking about the Vegetable Lo Mein theory. That seemed better than physics, tastes better then physics, and after eating, I would probably learn better than when I am in physics. Honestly, it is one of the courses in which you can’t learn that well.
On another note, someone today pointed something out to me. White people want to get darker, and dark people want to get whiter. This is a marvelous example of “the grass is always greener on the other side”. Do you not find it weird that in countries such as India, they have facial cream that makes you whiter? Have you ever seen a tanning place in India? nope. What about in Canada? Have you ever seen facial cream that makes you whiter? I don’t think so.
To conclude, I have just proven that the “Grass is always greener on the other side.”

Tylosis: A callus or thickening.

Billy: Hey! Look at that guy; he’s going through tylosis.
Bobby: Yeah. he’s becoming thicker and thicker every second.
Billy: yeah. thats mean. Go home Bobby.
Bobby: Yes sir.

Angry

So I decided to take a break from studying because it got boring; or did studying decide to take a break from me because I got boring? whatever the case, i’m not studying right now.
Just a couple of minutes ago I was thinking of something - why is it that when a person gets angry, they are said to have “gotten up from the wrong side of the bed.” And i’ve noticed that when that phrase is said, one gets even more angry. Did they get up from the wrong side of the bed twice? Now here’s an experiment for people who like adventures - what if you go back up to your bed right now and lie down for a minute and get back up - but this time get up from the other side of the bed (not the side you got up from this morning). Comprende?
Here’s a second situation…for people who are always angry…this type of person is obviously getting up from the wrong side of the bed everyday; from this I can conclude one thing - that their bed is pushed up against a wall, so there is only one side you can get up from…the WRONG SIDE!!! interesting thought eh.
Now in some places they don’t have beds; people sleep on the ground. I’m telling you one thing - these guys are the happiest people considering they can never get up from the wrong side…unless of course they some how “wake down” instead of “waking up”. Unfortunately these guys do get angry…but because they get back pains from sleeping on the ground.
You know, when you go to stores to buy beds…I feel they should label them; they should have an arrow point towards the “wrong” side, and one pointing towards the “right” side. They should also have a warning label posted on the bed - “Caution. Waking up from the wrong side of the bed may cause severe rage, anger, and even depression.” Yeah, I agree, this has been a pretty pointless post.

Medical Word of the Moment: medterms.comMutagen: Something capable of causing a gene-change. Among the known mutagens are radiation, certain chemicals and some viruses.

Billy: Look at all that radiation Bob!

Bobby: Yeah. I heard radiation is a mutagen.

Billy: I think you’re right. Kids, don’t go near radiation.

Bobby: Yeah. You’ll suddenly have 3 eyes, 3 noses, 4 ears, and maybe even no friends.

Billy: Wow. thats extreme.

Bobby: yeah.
