absolutum dominium

the weather is unbelievafuckingbly cold.

at times like this, i actually miss the sweltering heat and humidity of singapore. at least singapore is predictable.

here, you're either melting indoors where the heat's up high, or freezing your ass off out doors, where it's cold and rainy and windy and wet.

not tt i should be complaining tt much. on my way back to my room, i saw this giant raccoon scampering around, and it was soooooooooooo cute. more than took my mind off the discomfort.

at least you can see cute and cuddly raccoons here at night. and they're about the size of a small dog. sho cute. sho sho cute.

anyway the highlight of today was watching tim burton's corpse bride with eileen. man, it's fucking expensive to watch a movie in vancouver. the fucking ticket cost us both CAD $21.90. for 2 people. on a fucking wednesday night. like, what the hell?

but yeah, i'd been wanting to watch corpse bride for a long long time. so at least now i've watched it. although i prefer nightmare before christmas. they still elicit the same feelings of bittersweet wistfulness at the end, but nightmare touched me more. prob coz the guy got the girl (or the girl got the guy)... and here, well... SIGH.

but anyway tt's pretty much been about it. tt and food, but i don't think you want to know how much i ate again and how much peanut butter and chocolate truffles i devoured in my room in addition to my heavy breakfast and lunch at the cafe and an equally heavy dinner of a $0.99 giant pizza slice and then kfc chicken strips and hot chocolate topped with whipped cream in the evening?

melissa and the boy have both commented tt my face looks rounder. i am resigned. i'm currently over 60 kg now. oh well. all tt food has to go somewhere, right?

yep, so tt's mainly it. don't really feel like discussing lessons, although learning abt the canadian approach to search and seizure in my advanced crim class makes me feel as though the system is retarded. ok ok i know. i shouldn't be judging and i shouldn't be prejudiced and i'm supposed to be appreciative of a system tt strongly upholds the individual rights and freedoms of its citizens.

but still, when i come across a case where real evidence like possession of cocaine or marijuana is deemed inadmissable evidence, just because the search was unwarranted and conducted in an "unreasonable manner" not in line with s8 of the charter or rights and freedoms, and the guy in question walks because of this, i'm like: hello? i think there's something wrong here.

but tt's just me. what do i know anyway?

am feeling really tired now. i have a million and one things to do tomorrow anyway. i need to visit the money-changer's before my first class, pay for my montreal-toronto trip between my first and second class, go for my hapkido lesson (since i lazily missed tuesday's), pack my stuff for seattle and make sure i have everything i need, and still do my readings for my friday class before i leave.

ARGH.
