i came back to my apartment after spring break to find that
it was overrun by fruit flies. and so, i youtubed how to create
a fruit fly trap. the trap required something called apple cider
vinegar (since fruit flies are attracted to the smell of rotting fruit)
and ever since i got it, i've been somewhat of a curious creature.
articles on line praise apple cider vinegar as some kind of cure-all
elixir ("like the ones in maplestory that cost lots of mesoz?!" says
middle school john with sparkly eyes and a quivering lip). because
i am a big goofball, i decided it would be a good idea to try some
without diluting it with water or juice. let's just say i think i have
stumbled upon a new punishment for those who lose games. it felt
like a whole was being burnt into my chest (probably not an
exaggeration seeing how the substance consists of acetic acid) and
then the burning sensation passed...down to my stomach. definitely
not one of my best rash decisions ever made.
in other news, my roommate has recently acquired a peculiar interest
in guns. like videos of people testing guns, the science behind guns,
and...the killing capability of specific guns. given the trajectory of our
relationship thus far, i'm probably going to be the first victim if he turns
out to be a campus shooter. are my fears irrational given the atmosphere
of campus shootings over the past few years and the stories behind those
shootings? i told my parents even before this gun thing that his
personality and lifestyle fit those of a campus shooter. but i'm just
assuming the worst. sigh...it's sad to see someone lead a life so isolated.
