Apr. 21st, 2006 09:40 amnote to self: go to more graduate-professional council events. they had an end-of-year party at blue hill earlier this week, and there was an open bar. it was an open bar with good liquor...like, if you ordered just a screwdriver, they'd make it with grey goose. sweet. i also had some johnnie walker black...that's some smooooooooth whisky right there. i have a new favourite whisky, and it's that stuff. it has the whisky taste without any whisky burn. it's awesome.
although, another note to self: eat dinner before you go out drinking. it's never good when you don't. and by you, i mean i.
yesterday i went to the zoo in the afternoon. i'd been clamoring all semester to go to the zoo to look at the penguins, and we finally went. it was so awesome to giggle at the penguins...they were so funny, i was mesmerized! they have king penguins, rockhopper penguins, and gentoo penguins in the penguin house, and it's open so you can see them really well, and sometimes they splash you. the rockhopper penguins like to hop around and yell a lot, the king penguins are rather aloof (but look really funny when they swim), and the gentoo penguins are just silly. they're my favourite penguins. they swim...sometimes they flip around in the water, sometimes they try to swim like a duck. when they're on the ground, they flap their wings and try to fly...and it's really funny because, of course, they can't fly. if one of them is amused by something and starts walking, they all start waddling over in a big pack. penguins in general are extremely funny creatures, but the gentoo penguins are extra funny.
and here, just because they're funny, are some ( pictures of gentoo penguins. )
sigh. finals start next week. i'm not ready for them at all. methinks i'll turn into a penguin at the zoo, where my biggest problem would be waiting for the zookeeper to come with my fish.
