Sucks to your Assmar



So apparently I've become asthmatic again. Went out tonight to Happy Valley Racetrack, as is becoming a weekly Wednesday tradition, and attended the horseraces. It's a genuinely entertaining experience, and definitely explains Woodbine's eternal slogan "That's Entertainment". Bet on two of the heats, won money on both but left $6HKD down due to betting on two horses, relatively sure bets, to place, when it turned out that, whodathunkit, they would win their heats. It was nice to win at an event such as horceracing, it legitimately gets your blood flowing. The event is structured so that you get 1 minute of pure adrenaline-rushing entertainment, and chill for 29 minutes, drink beer, eat shish kebabs and place bets on the next race. All in all, a great way to be entertained on a wednesday night. Ran into the HKUST girls for the first time, it was nice to see them down and ready to party.
Back to the assmar. Ever since i've come back from Boracay (STORY TO COME TOMORROW, apologies), i've been feeling relatively under the weather. Went to Wan Chai (the sleazy area of Victoria Island, which hosts ladies nights on Wednesdays and is frequented by many an exchange student) and had a good time, but was suddenly under attack by the evil diaphragm. Suffice it to say, I turned in earlyish tonight, but nonetheless felt like posting to this blog. I've gotten several requests for updates so here's update number 1. I will post a more detailed update about my Philippines adventures tomorrow or Friday, depending on how much i'm interested in the classes in which I intend to blog. The mother's bitching about setting up a Flickr account, and considering that the woman pays for the majority of this trip, I owe it to her. Expect award-winning photos to appear on that website in the near future.

Anyways, enough of my hyperventilating ramblings. Time to pass out and get up for my day of hell, class-wise. I have a professor in my Creativity class (Thursdays 6-9pm) who likes to call me "Ivey" and chirps me for 3 hours every thursday because we do cases for a living, so I've gotta rest up to handle that irrelevant abuse.

Goodnight and blog more tomorrow.

Oh and requisite music link:
Empire of the Sun - Walking on a Dream (Van She Tech Remix)

Nice uplifting track that'll put a smile on anybody's face.
