Back to student mode

The first week back to ubc was horrible.

This is how we entertain ourselves and our teacher:

We LEARNT from our students during practicum and behaved like a student IS in our UBC classroom.

Our teacher gave us something to work on. After she gave the instruction and handed a worksheet to each of us, we began yelling from our seats:

S: Do we need to put our names on?
T: YES

S: What's today's date?
T: May something

S: What's our block?
T: G *we actually don't have a block name!!!*

S: Is it for marks?
T: YES
S(from whole class): ar....... *complain*

S: Pen or pencil?
T: doesn't matter

S: I don't get it.
T (in her heart and on her face): I just gave the instruction. Were you not listening or just dumb?

Girls talk on "how to treat your bf"

During class "break", we saw our classmate playing a video game that has gundam in it.

I know my honey likes gundam so I asked him to send me the site.

Then comes the conversation:

E: hey mandy, why would you send this to wayne?
M: coz he likes gundam.
E: well, then he'll focus on playing the video game and not spending time with you. Look at michael, he's not spending time with his gf anymore and see how focus he is.
M: you are right...

What would happen when astronauts burp in space? - 2

According to http://www.einsteinyear.org/facts/physicsFacts/

Do astronauts burp? Because you are weightless in space, the contents of your stomach float and tend to stay at the top of your stomach, under the rib cage and close to the valve at the top of your stomach. Because this valve isn't a complete closure (just a muscle that works with gravity), if you burp, it becomes a wet burp from the contents in your stomach. Gross!

The question I initially want to ask was: Do astronaut fart in space? Explain.

But I think this will be too engaging... Plus, does anyone know the answer? I remember I've heard that they won't because the gas cannot be separated due to *no* gravity.

Ridiculous ICBC

I crashed my car last sunday. I back up in a one-way parking lot and my friend came from the wrong direction and I crashed his car. I asked ICBC if the *wrong* way count. ICBC searched for past cases and found this:

In the decision, the court found that even though there were arrows in the parking lot, they were not considered to be "traffic control devices" as defined by the Motor Vehicle Act. Additionally, there was evidence that it was common practice for vehicles to go against the direction of the arrows. Though it may sound strange, it seems like the court found that as more people disobeyed the sign, the more it meant that the sign was not a "traffic control device" as defined by the Motor Vehicle Act.

What's *truth*? What is *right*? What is *correct*? What is *Justice*?

As a result, I am 100% liable. I am physically fine. My car will get a new pat pat finally. =D
