How does food become poo?

Yay I finished defensive driving today. I'm so glad it's only 5~6 hours, because I used to think it was closer to 40 hours for some reason (probably because my dad took a month to complete it). They have way too many videos that look like they're from the 70s. There were also Bill Nye video clips, which is...random. And I prefer having Bill Nye teach me about the (now eight-planet-ed) solar system instead of how to properly buckle up a seatbelt. :(

Every once in a while, they'd have "identity verification" questions to make sure that I am whom I'm supposed to be, and that I didn't pay my (non-existent) little brother to take it for me or something like that. Anyway, I wasn't born in the US, so they can't find any dirt on me, and they're reduced to asking questions like "What is the first letter of your last name?" Lol. In contrast, CMG said that when he took defensive driving, he was asked which county he was married in.

In related news, my parents don't want to buy an ultra-expensive new car because they think that when I drive it, people will see it and think I'm rich and try to mug/rape me. Tis ironic that this is their primary concern considering...uh...recent events. Why do asian parents (and grandparents) have this ubiquitous, all-consuming fear that their daughters will get raped? (My grandmother once told me that if I needed to borrow a cell phone, always borrow from women and never men.) P.S. If my mom gets her wish and buys an SUV, I ain't driving it. Ever.

In unrelated news, I bought my final textbook from the Co-op, and it's one of those custom published thingies from the McCombs School of Business. It's paperback, and it costed more than my other four (hardcover) textbooks combined. No lie. Ugh I hate the business school (and the Co-op). Whores!

In other unrelated news, went to EHC ice cream social and then floor meeting tonight. Doom at the floor meeting, they made us do this retarded version of the "I've never" game, in which we just go around and have each person say "I bet you've never *insert something they did here*". Because it was C2 and C3 combined, there were around 100 people and we went throught all of them. Gah. Points of interest: 1) Harsh pronouned his name Hersh (as in Hershey's Kisses) again. Lol yes, that will continue to amuse me. 2) Bella pronounces her name Bella (as in Bellatrix), and not the fancy Spanish way. P.S. I kind of missed Maria's over-perkiness.

Professors are starting to send me welcome messages course syllabi. I'm a little freaked out and am considering dropping a class. Discuss. (I signed up for 18 hours so I'd have room to drop, right?) (Also, I have until the 12th class day? Yes?)

textbooks, cars, school, parents
