Beetles, Squirrels and Loan Sharks

I wasn;t planning on making another entry in my blog, been pretty busy with school readings and projects. I'm on the AUV team @ Cornell, which is pretty awesome.

Today I noticed a squirrel covering up a hole with dirt. I'm assuming he hid his nutz there for da winter, it was just amusing enough to nudge me into making an entry....like honestly, there are nutz litering the area, all over the sidewalk, maybe some squirells were fighting earlier for them or something. Regardless, they really should invest in a nut bank or something, whats their hit rate in the winter when the soil is covered by a foot of dirt? Probably like 30% or less, wasting quite a bit of nutz I;m sure...perhaps thats how trees get grown? The nutz that were planted but weren't found afterwards by squirells?

I have this gross beetle investation in my house, its nasty, I first thought there was only one of them (yesterday), but today found 2 more on the window looking outside. Not sure why or how they got in the house, just gonna make sure they don't start breeding in here, can't wait till it gets colder, unbelievably hot in my house.

Ever wonders what happens if you don't pay the $30-45,000 USD/yr to the bursar;'s office or the loan sharks U took the money from? They break your legs, yup. Thats what happens, it serves as an example to the other students and motivates you to study and get a good job to pay off your loans. Honestly, I have never seen so many students with broken legs/shins/knee caps since entering any academic setting. Every week a new person has a broken leg, just when the previous person around campus give up their crutches after healing up. No one ever says it was loan sharks, er ya I broke it skiing, er.. in California, naw I mean windsurfing, ya....Ya I was skateboarding to class when I tripped....datz it....

All I know is I;m defenitely gonna watch my expenses and make sure I pay off my tuition bills in time ............... :-)

Cornell is alright I think, I don;'t like ppl's attitudes about how the poor can't afford Cornell, thats the American style, its sad, ppl shouldnt be filtered based on income when it comes to higher education....alas I;m merely a meagre student so I can't do much in dis regard.

Adios,

p.s. I;m heading back to Toronto dis weekend (its Fall break) so hopefully my car will last till than. The monstrous gas prices defenitely ain't helping though :-0
