I'll just derail the speed reading conversation with this: today, I went to my theory test for the learner's driver's licence and I passed. Normally people would put this on Facebook, but I don't like being active on that, so here you go.

I can finally learn how to drive with a supervisor!

I socialized today! :3
My super smart buddy invited me to a Bible study.  It took ALL MY WILLPOWER, but I made myself go, and I talked with some people, and an exhausting, albeit good, time.  That said, I still haven't started studying for either of the two tests I have next week, and I've barely started the lab report I have to do for Thursday.  :\  Still, yay for meeting people and doing things!

... the lav report ...

What? "lavatory" report? If you were British I'd be more prepared to believe that!

[boring]Or was that a typo for "lab" report?  :P[/boring]

Yay! (Though I must say, I also am curious as to what this "lav" report is. Perhaps something to do with lava? :P)

YEAH!

Chemistry tests are...ugh. :-\ Coincidentally, I also have a chemistry test soon. I don't think I'm quite as prepared, though.

Maybe it's the South Carolina accent pronunciation of love?

(I hear the actual Southern pronunciation is lurv)

Reminds me of this adorable preview of a Pixar short.
Just a lab report, y'all.  On the topic of DAQ systems and their advantages and disadvantages.  :/  Pretty boring stuff; I'd much rather do a report on lurv.

It always feels nice, giving a test a swift kick in the rear.  Have fun at that party!

Well, there's this thing called a diary.

(Also, new record for number of users today, where are these 36 guests coming from?).

I've considered keeping a diary log before, but I wouldn't have much to write in it.  :-\
I saw.  They're ALL in the "Take a Shot" thread, too... which I think has happened before...  Something about that thread seems to attract a lot of people, at random times, in large groups.  Nobody left a link in the comments, did they?

Actually, yeah, twice in fact. I think it might have something to do with Emil's hair. That's one of the rules isn't it?

On that same page, I also found this:  How a Finnish man plans for a perfect date.

Is that... typical?   ;)  Should we warn the nice lady who posted on Disqus the other day, wanting to meet Nordic men?
