Dreaming about beer....
Hey
everyone. Sorry about the late call to
Koerner's. There was beer to bottle,
and physics students to bore before I did this
(as
me for details tonight if you want). I
am also bit sleep deprived so please excuse me for grammatical errors and more
random
rants than usual. Also, speaking of
sleep deprivation, the term is quickly coming to a close and many projects are
due
and
exams are upcoming.....this is the perfect opportunity to relax a bit between
your bouts of work. So for those that
are
interested,
lets meet in the CICSR atrium and walk over to the pub.
As
for this week's list, various important events have happened this week. I lost yet
another mug last Friday and got it back
today
(now if only I could get big red back :( ).
I finally bottled the beer I was making and looked completely psycho
taking a
bus
with over 60 bottles of beer on my person.*
There was also the sticker party that I forgot to go to. I also should
probably
remind a large number of you that you have plans tomorrow night(Saturday the
26th). However, since I don't know if
various
Saturday night plans are public knowledge, I thought I would write about what I
know best right now.....my current 4
hours
of sleep!!
*
But I think this was the first time that it looked like I was able to hold my
alcohol. I kept looking at people,
looking at
the
bottles and saying "all of them, two hours ago". Then giving cute girls my number. I expect the phone to be ringing off
the
hook any minute.

5. During your exam you seriously
contemplate stabbing yourself in
the eye to stay awake.
4. When you finally get a good night's
sleep you can find out what

the steady path of drool that you
left on the ground.

"When
we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep,
we commit no sin. When we commit no sin,
