So there I was typing away and I saw the word draft. Now, for most of us, well, maybe not most, actually probably just me and that guy from China, well when we see the word draft we think, "Oh well, if I'm sick of typing this moment and I want to save it and come back I'll just hit the draft button and all will be right with the world and bunnies will hop around and love, hapiness and peace will spread like some highly infective virus and I will be able to come back and keep typing where I left off." But of course Ping and I would be wrong. Actually, I really don't think that I know anyone named Ping. (fun fact = Li is the most common name among humans.) Anyway, the short version of the incredably long beginning is I have to type what I wanted over again. So here it is.

Well, if I could get the titles to work I would say this is titled, "Of Toliets and chewing gum." But of course I can't. But such is life. Just to tell you guys, today has been one extraordinary day for a variety of reasons that I will not go into now. But hey, lets just say God is good and get on with it.

So I have started a trend, or since I'm the only one doing it I guess it should be called a habit, but I want to call it trend, so trend it is. Actually, forget that I'll get back to that but first I must say that Starbucks after coffee gum is the most annoying thing ever. Well, at first it's not but the more you eat the more annoying it gets. You see, it's in a metal tin. Quaint huh, aw that's cute...EXCEPT FOR THE EXTREME RATTLE IT MAKES! Seriously now, I'm walking to class one day I grab my gum, pop a couple in my mouth, put the gum in metal container back in my backpack and continue walking. I hear, click, click, click with everystep I take. Now if it were only clicks, I could take that. And since the sound I remember has no word like click, I will say it sounded like chinkey. So I have somemore gum and I hear chinkey, chinkey, chinkey. Oh boy and it goes on and on all the way from chinkey to clank. Never get that gum.

Anyway, back to toliets, ah yes my trend. I was walking to class one day talking to my friend Nick and for some reason in the middle of winter we we're talking about mowing the lawn. He said that the best places to think were in the shower and mowing the lawn. I agreed, except I added one. The toliet. You see, you don't have anything better to do when you sit there than think. Anywho, the trend, last term, whenever I went to the bathroom I would use stall 1. I felt comfortable there. The first day back, someone was in the scared stall so I was forced to use stall 2. But then I got to thinking, that maybe it was a sign. You see the trend is this, there are three stalls, and coincidentally three terms in the school year. You do the math. Which brings me to another very pressing issue in America today.

Racial tensions. You see in my English class we discuss why prejudice is still a problem in America today. So we had to read a short story for the class and go discuss it and there was part about how English toliets don't flush. So Prof Guzmann said how he had been to Europe and American toliets were definately superior. He went onto say that those who made superior toliets had to be a superior race. So that leaves us and the Australians. He said it's all about the swirl. There needs to be less whoosh and more swirl. And then the other day I say the remains of an eaten piece of chocolate cake on a plate along side a fork sitting on the counter in the bathroom. Does that disturb anyone but me? I hope so, cake is definately not needed in there. Later.
