i have one question: why aren't the pictures showing up on my previous bored quiz-taking post? strange world.

actually, i have one more question: why in the world are the bees so attracted to faz's room? in the three nights that i've bunked over, we've had to deal with the bee invader for every single night without fail. one night it was a hornet, the other a bumblebee. that, plus the fact that one of the dirty things was doing the bee equivalent of peeping at me while i was in the loo the following morning after we thought that we had gotten rid of it. now there is extra cause for opening the door only when absolutely necessary, and not making sure no unwanted visitors make infiltrate the base when you do, inevitably, open that dang door.

grr. hate bees/bugs/hornets/everyone related to those things.

yesterday we came across this *the shame!* fanfic about linkin park. quite well written, save for the fact that the main character was brad, of all people, and the ending was kinda shitty. why? because we made it through, hoping that brad's character would get off his drug addiction (he was on drugs in the writing) and so the day is saved. turns out at the end, horror of horrors, brad kills the rest of his band members, then kills himself.

WHAT?

imagine the shocked screams of horror when this processed fully in my mind. it was not funny, and i was not amused. i mean, if you want to write something like that, please, finish it properly and don't just kill off all your characters with a freak accident or sudden snap of the main protagonist! needless to say, the desired effect just wasn't carried across, and on hindsight, it just sounded so funny. now we refer to linkin park as 'the dead band', just for the fun of it. :) i would find the url again, but somehow the page eludes me at this moment in time. that, plus the fact that all the stories this person attempted were about brad dealing with some kind of new crisis in his life, which gives us a clue as to who her favourite band member might be. just a hunch i guess. ;)

i miss home right now. things got particularly bad this afternoon, i don't know why, but i got over it over a call home. hey, i'll get over it soon enough. after all, it's a short term.

meantime, tutorial work beckons.
