~The Road Less Taken~

Wednesday, January 21, 2009

back to the recurring theme amongst all my recent blog posts:

you know you're bored stiff when:

a) sleep does not appeal to you because it's too boring.
b) you bothered to update all your blog's links.
c) you can afford to walk around school for 1 hour, wait 1 hour to get a haircut and still reach home by 4. on a wednesday afternoon.
d) you do non-productive memes like the one below from bengoh's blog because there isn't much else better to do.
