Breast Cancer and Cows

Filed In: General      

I’m in my Phonetics class again and it seems like I’ve done it again! Done the squeaky female thing! Sho is laughing at me again, but I ignore her so I can enjoy the fact that the doctor’s not looking at me funny.
Now we’re contrasting vowels, so he goes like: “bid… bed!” and then “sit… set!” and he’s so excited!! Then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, he almost screams out: “six!!” and I’ll let you imagine the contrasting vowel because this blog is PG lol :D
And now Sho is drawing knives and chopped up people in here notebook… I’m so proud of her positive thinking that I want to applaude right this second…
Ok, now let’s leave the class practice their vowels and let me tell you what happened in my Translation (1) class. We had just finished our translated passage about “Breast Cancer” and were getting ready to leave the class as soon as the doctor finishes reading attendance, and this chick raises her hand… ok? Ok. We all look at her weirdly because there’s nothing left to do and the doc finished answering our questions before class… So the doc asks her: “3indich ta3leeq 3ala el passage?” and she says: “ yea, 3indi ta3leeq about the passage bas mo about the passage…” and the doc says: “ and that is…?” So she drops the Hiroshima bomb by saying: “I read somewhere that the reason for Breast Cancer is actually deodorant…”

OK! Now I bet you can imagine the looks on our faces and the giggling in the back of the class. Her face is so serious and the doctor looks like he’s been hit by a bus.

“How now brown cow…” ok, that was me in Phonetics, forget about it…

So the doctor says after 7 decades of silence… and this applies to men, too?”
Ok, so the whole class goes into this discussion about the kinds of deodorant that cause cancer and which doesn’t. And the whole time I’m feeling like screaming out: “JUST BATHE EVERYDAY!!!” So we’ve reached the conclusion that you should use the ordinary scented ones, and not the ones that stop your sweating in general…
I love the fact that I’m such a great bringer of information. I’m like the beautiful cow of knowledge, full of milky ways of braininess!
Now the doctor is harassing Sho to participate and I want to beat him up and poke his eyes with my pen so he’d be an example of what happens to you when you don’t respect The Milky Cow of Knowledge and her friends…
That’s a great nickname: The Milky Cow of Knowledge. It’s no where near an insult, actually. Did you know that in India, some people WORSHIP cows?!?! I’d be their heaven, I tell u!

*sighs* that would be nice…

Oh no, my CD player just made a sound like a dying goose, I don’t think that’s a good thing…

That’s all for now.
