Olympics is over. YAY!

For me that is, but the Paralympics is still on (in case you didn't know). Anyways, here's my fav picture of the Olympics - it reminds us that, even if you are a fictitious character, shit still happens [Via 713 Avenue]



Anyways, i have been missing a month! Wow. Damned. Only had time do a quick post after my assignments were done, though i still have one more to go + a mid term + a lab test(no, not the one where you dissect lab mice, that's just not ethical.)




But unlike some people, who posted a stupid road sign, and some lengthy monologue about how he's supposed to save the world, i'm determined to give you a proper post. Afterall, i did went missing. So here goes.

1. Random fact of the year.
Roughly 20 people die a year due to shark attacks
Roughly 50 people die due to bees attacks.

BUT!!
Roughly 100 people die each year because they choke on their ballpoint pens.
Roughly 20 people a year die trying to shake a vending machine to get free stuff.
So....yup. We did it to ourselves really.

maybe they tried to get one of these from the vending machine.

2. Controversy of the month.
Nope, not the political stuff, that one you can see on CheeWei's blog. I'm talking about Lewis Hamilton. Yes the boy who is too young too drink but is driving a car on speeds that we can only dream off. He really should retain his win, but oh well, doesn't matter. Massa's moving up. I like Massa. ( = unlike the plenty of Miss Gimme Kimi fangirls out there. (Yes, i'm talking about you Jaspattay! and Mei! and Girls!)

Probably kimi and schuiee when they are older:)

3. The Burning Man
It's this thingie that's held each year, with the contributors/exhibitionists putting out their creative works of art on show. There's a catch though, the exhibits have gotta be melded out of metal, and they have got to incoporate some sort of flame thrower:) I love it! Here's a pic, and a link to the 13 most coolest pieces of art ever! [Via MatadorNights]

Mutopia is the name of this one:)


Aptly named "Big Rig". It's mind-bending!

4. Emblems
You know those cool emblems that usually have a skull and bones that are patched on that oh so lucky fighter jet pilot you see in the movies? well, this is by far, the most meaningful emblem. Ever! More here [Via Wired]





5. That's all Folks!
No really. That is all:)

Cheers!
