Top 10 Reasons Why I Am Spidey

Curiouser

Watched Spiderman 2 a second time back home. My parents were watching too. As I sat through the movie, I realised a few similarities between what was happening to me and what was going on in the movie.

Top 10 Reasons Why I Am Spidey
  1. I am a geek.
  2. I own a pair of thick-rimmed spectacles.
  3. I take a kind of medicine with a side-effect that causes additional tiny invisible hair to grow. I don't really see 'em now but I am sure they will pop out the moment I decide to climb up walls.
  4. I don't do my homework.
  5. Brilliant but lazy. So sue me...
  6. Just a few days ago, my long-time friend suddenly told me she was getting married. She called up in the middle of the night. When I asked her who the groom was, she told me it was some guy. When I ask to confirm, since it was so sudden, she then said it was me. She totally succeeded in messing with my mind that night. I still don't know who's getting married.
  7. I am always tired.
  8. The last time I was in a really jovial mood(went cycling, I love to cycle), I kept on going "...raindrops keep fallin' on my head...". Almost drove my friend nuts. A few weeks later, all of us went to catch the Spiderman 2 premiere. When the sudden sunshine scene showing Tobey Maguire in all his gawky nerdy glory complete with the now all-so-familiar "...raindrops keep fallin' on my head" accompanying music, my friend went into a mild shock and screamed. Really.
  9. I am allergic to squids.
  10. I do not stay at home but live in a tiny room in campus. Well, not that tiny...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Scratchy

I believe I am now back to good health after a sudden bout of flu. I had a runny nose, which in turn lead to headaches. Then when I finally recover from the runny nose and headache, I got a sore throat. Possibly from blowing my nose too much...

But that's over now! Life just suddenly turned brighter again.

Anyhow, the purpose of this post is to remind myself not to eat too much of chocolate-chip cookies. They are harmful. At least to me. My skin was in pretty good condition all this while. I had religiously kept away from foods I was allergic too.

Then I stopped by the campus's grocery store. Looked around and finally decided on Chips Ahoy! Chocolate-chip Cookies. What was I thinking?! I took 5 chocolate chip cookies. And downed 'em with water.Yum...

I did the exact same thing this evening too. Yum...

It's pretty late in the night now. Just finished making minor adjustments to my friend's kernel system call code so that the kernel could be compiled on my Gentoo-flavoured box. Nothing much.

What's really bad is that my sins have finally caught up with me. I had mercilessly chomped on those pitiful, innocent and seemingly harmless Chocolate-chip cookies. Now I have to pay the price! A very small and slight rash has set up shop on my left foot. Damn. It will probably go away after a night's good sleep. But still... stay away from those cookies!!


It's late and my roommate's asleep
