Okay, so I finally moved back up into my room again after the appearance of centipedes became a recurring event:

My dad & Technology








Bad chinglish and licks wannabe's

So finally, my cousins, my sister and I decided on which trip to take to the east coast. The total was around $500 each for a 7-day trip. We visited the Tai-pan Tours to go and reserve our tickets and while we were walking around the plaza I saw this :



Its suppose to be a cosmetic store, but I think it looks suspiciously similar to the well known burger joint:




In the end, I came to the conclusion that Chinese people are awesome. Although their chinglish could use some improvements:




Adding to that, It was REEEAAAALLLY hot outside and thankfully I was standing beside my monstrously tall cousin. But he refused to share his shadow with me...

How my cousins' eye feels like

Okay, so this event happened a couple years back, but I wanted to share it with you guys anyways. Even to today we still joke about it. XD

A lot of my stories/experiences include my cousins so we will now refer to my cousins as :

'C' for the older one & 'W' for the younger one, they're both sisters.

Anyways:

So one day, I went to go visit my cousins. After chilling for a while, they decided to go upstairs (for whatever reason, can't be bothered to remember). So we're hanging out upstairs and I'm trying to take a nap in 'C's bedroom when I hear chit-chat from the other room.



So me being me, I decide to do some weird random stance behind 'C' so that when she turns around from the conversation, she freaks out. So my stance basically consisted of me pointing my finger very close to her face and making a weird noise.

But it turned out something like this:



Okay, at this point she turns around and FULLY acknowledges that my finger in near her face. Normal people would :
1) slap my hand away and walk out of the room
or
2)walk around my hand
Guess what she does? :



She walks INTO my finger. This picture EXACTLY describes what it felt like.

Thanks 'C', Much appreciated.

Testing out photoshop

So, I just recently downloaded the trial version of Photoshop cs5 the extended version and I'm currently testing it out. I will be posting random drawing throughout my blog, please enjoy:

Trip to the airport

Okay, so today my sister had to go drop off a car at the airport so she asked me to tag along. While riding in a Chevy HHR I noticed a button that looked like this :





Okay, okay. I know its a button for some anti-skidding thing for the car, but somehow my brain interpreted this symbol as this instead :



When I told my sister this....she laughed and called me china.

As I looked around the car, once again I misinterpreted something for something else.

This is the car handle, pretty cool design I would say:





But to me, it looked like this:




Yeah, I know, I'm lacking sleep...but i don't want to fall asleep...clowns will eat me.

My Basement

Hello readers of my blog. My name is Mylo and I currently reside in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I'm currently a student and, I have an absurdly big fish tank... but I digress. The majority of my blogging will consist of everyday events of my life. If you're not interested, then you should click that little 'X' near the top right-hand corner of your screen. But then again, why wouldn't you like my blog? I'm awesome. AND! I have a big fish tank...wait, did I say that already???

So for my first ever blog:

At the moment, I'm sleeping on a mattress on the floor of my bug-ridden basement. Why, you ask? During the summertime, anything above the temperature of 24 degrees is warm to me. Therefore sleeping upstairs just won't do. *(A little science lesson for you youngins') So kids! hot air rises and cool air sinks so my bedroom upstairs would be significantly hotter then my basement.*

If I had to personify my basement and my bedroom, It would be something like this:

Basement
: "Hi Mylo, I'm nice and cold. If you sleep here, you won't wake up drenched in sweat. The only downside is that there may be a *few* cute bugs that tend to skitter across the stucco ceiling at lightning speeds. Some may include but are not limited to: hobo spiders, yellow sack spiders and the ever so adorable house centipede. You might also find that the fish inside your dad's fish tank splash around loudly when you sleep, but!Hey, you stay cool, and that's what counts.

Meanwhile....

Upstairs Bedroom
: " I COOK YOU ALIVE MUTHA FUCKAHHHHHH~!"


And really, I'd rather take my chances with the bugs.

The other day, a house centipede ran across the ceiling... If you don't know what a house centipede looks like...its kinda like a centipede + spider x 10 scary. Or something like this:
So I cringed a little when I look at this picture. Okay. I was in my basement at around 3am when out of the corner of my eye, I saw this guy running across my ceiling. And if you've ever seen one of these guys run...holy shit man, THEY RUN! So I grab a can of bug repellent that I bought earlier that day (Thinking that bug repellent could double as bug spray) and I start spraying the shit outta that thing. After emptying 90% of the can's contents you would think that the centipede would die, but...nope....nothing. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! That bastard was still running around like nothing happened.

By then, the basement air was so saturated with bug repellent that it set off one of the carbon monoxide detectors. Guess where the alarm was. The alarm was conveniently placed behind a pile of full Rubbermaid containers which was also conveniently placed behind a FULL bookshelf. I had to move EVERYTHING out of the way, all the while the alarm was blaring its ultra-high-pitched tone at me. After about half an hour of moving books & boxes, I finally unplug that son of a bitch alarm and get back to business of killing that centipede.

The centipede was on the wall! I was NOT about to let it get away. I grabbed the nearest flat object (which at the time was a cookie tin lid) and squished the centipede. There were still-twitching parts of the body & legs on the wall & floor.... I had to clean that shit up with a tissue.

After the whole commotion, I finally got to sleep around 4 am.


Well, I hope you enjoyed my first ever post, and I promise there will be more to come.
