Being sick sucks, but seeing old friends rocks

I’ve been a bit sick the last few days, so I’ve been sleeping a lot during the day (although I suppose that’s not that different from my usual routine.) So that has sucked a lot of fun out of the past few days.

On the flip side, I managed to pass the ELPE, which is an exam to test who can write proper English and who can’t. I was surprised to find out that about 30-40% of students in the Faculty of Mathematics had failed this - something which I was not that much expecting, but now I suppose I’m more happy that I passed it.

I also bumped into two high school friends today, Jiasen (living off-campus) and Joanne (living at UWP). We talked for a few minutes, and then we went to visit Simon, another high school friend, who lived at Conrad Grebel. We stayed for a bit, and watched him play Heroes of Might & Magic and his roommate play Starcraft, and then we went to visit Jackson, yet another high school friend, who lived at Renison. So in the end, I saw four high school friends that I hadn’t seen yet during my stay here at Waterloo, and the five of us all live in separate residences, as well!

    Dude, high school friends don’t count, you have to meet people from middle school and back in order to count as “old”
